Tsubasa is a he/they agender (''musei'') person who uses they/them pronouns. Surviving in an AFAB body has led them to take on a masculine role and outlook in life in an effort to separate themself from being perceived as a girl, in part due to the lack of X-Gender gender roles in Japanese society. They prefer to be classed as one of the guys and differentiate themself from there, using makeup and loud fashion to establish themself as not quite ''male'', either. They use a binder in order to masculinise their chest, but due to being a minor, they are presently unable to access hormones, and their extensive scarring has largely excluded surgery as an option for them despite their desire for it. While they exclusively use they/them in their normal life, they vastly prefer 'he/him' if gendered pronouns are to be applied to them at all, violently rejecting the alternative. Tsubasa is their chosen name, though their deadname, Tsubaki, comes up semi-frequently when their transphobic family or the NWO at large gets involved -- or whenever they have to visit the hospital or any other facility which refers to their legal name.

== Former Life ==
'''Hanzou Seki''' (Devil): Tsubasa's tyrannical father, who values nothing more than his image -- which means he keeps his abuse of his family firmly behind closed doors. He's the executive vice president of Kimpara Electronics, hungry to move even further up the chain. He nurses a Palace in his heart, and was elevated in the ranks of the New World Order following the arson at City Hall.
'''Etsuko Seki''' (Hanged Man): Tsubasa's battered mother, Etsuko was the one who wished to keep Tsubasa when she fell pregnant again after birthing her son; despite never expecting her daughter to justify her existence, she still insists that Tsubasa is her ''daughter.'' Years of abuse at Hanzou's hands has led her to develop an addiction to tranquilisers.
'''Kiyoshi Seki''' (The Sun): Tsubasa's older brother, Kiyoshi graduated high school last year, and has spent his time since doing intense study in order to achieve a perfect score in the exams he must take to qualify for medical school.
'''Matcha''' (The Star): Tsubasa's now-elderly pet cockatiel, who was in fact the inspiration for their name ("wing").
'''Souma Morishima''' (The Magician): Tsubasa's male best friend in junior high, and the one to goad them into picking up the electric bass to play in Chaos Chant. He distanced himself from them -- and disinvited them from the band -- following the Arson at City Hall. His parents are both lawyers.
'''Kenta Nakajima''' (Justice): Tsubasa's old boss at City Hall, a local politician. Kenta was a Yongen-Jaya man through and through, devoted to serving and protecting his local community. Principled and popular with his electorate, he was nonetheless ''unpopular'' with unscrupulous agents at City Hall, blocking many efforts to gentrify and profit off of Yongen-Jaya. Those battles eventually caught up to him after Tsubasa set his office on fire, and the investigation 'found' evidence of his embezzlement, imprisoning him for his so-called crimes. (And he does blame himself... for not following procedure and giving Tsubasa access to his account.)
== Today's Punks ==
'''Hajime Yasuda''' (The Emperor): A third-year at Seven Sisters, and Tsubasa's abusive ex-boyfriend, whose misogynistic comments made them realise they didn't want to be counted as a girl at all. His hatred of women started early, growing up under a single mother he viewed as domineering and shrewish; his torments are frequently petty and always cruel. He was Eiji Kamiya's protege, though he never managed to be inducted into the New World Order, and was in fact horrified to learn about his best friends' dealings in slavery.
'''Kyoko Yokota''' (The Lovers): The Foundry Boss was Tsubasa's former Boss, when they first joined Akiyama; her mother worked at City Hall, so she knew who they were, and made sure the whole school knew too. Kyoko is a cruel bully, but she still broke the sukeban code of conduct to strong-arm Tsubasa into breaking up with Hajime when she realised how bad he was for them -- which is secretly on account of her own cruel father, someone her mother left when Kyoko was younger. Once she takes responsibility for someone, she's reluctant to discard them, but she had no choice after Ichika beat her single-handedly and stole half her crew -- with both Tsubasa and Shizuko following her away.
'''Haruna Tachibana''' (The Chariot): Kyoko's right-hand girl and strongest warrior, and the one member of her original gang who ''didn't'' betray her to go follow Ichika instead. She dated Hajime before Tsubasa did... and eventually forgave them for that transgression and taught them how to fight properly, once they apologised. Don't call her an orange!
'''Shizuko Kato''' (Strength): Known to Ichika's gang as 'the Princess', Shizuko is a self-admitted coward who hates getting hit... though she's also an absolute genius at air soft games, because as it happens, she has no problem aiming at ''other'' people. Taught Tsubasa the ins and outs of shoplifting in exchange for some tips on picking locks. Her family support situation is actually quite good -- she even has a long-term, steady boyfriend, a boy named Ikumi Nakai who's perpetually anxious about all her crime -- but as it happens, she's an adrenaline junkie who needs to break laws to live.
'''Shuyo Hayama''' (The High Priestess): The local fence of Ichika's gang, Shuyo is another rainbow member; he's quietly bisexual, with a preference for men. He's good at networking, and remarkably playful. Also presently Tsubasa's housemate, having taken them into his spare room after realising their parents were making it difficult for them to live where they previously were.
'''Lance''' (The Wheel of Fortune): A Tosa Inu dog who only recently hit adulthood, scrawny and scarred. She was bred a a fighting dog (despite dogfighting being illegal in Tokyo!), but discarded due to her friendliness and vocal nature, only to be rescued from an alleyway by Tsubasa and Ichika. She did bite someone once when a fight broke out around her, but she's since been trained to run ''away'' from danger instead of getting involved.
== Associated NWO Agents ==
'''Takumi Kimpara''' (The Hermit): The President of Kimpara Electronics, who inherited the position from his father a decade prior. Shrewd and patient, he's a member of the NWO in good standing -- and he serves as Hanzou's sponsor within the organisation, having elevated him after his eligible qualities came to his attention.
'''Kurou Nagasawa''' (Temperance): A political assistant Tsubasa befriended at City Hall, who offered them the advice to keep working as they normally would after Tsubasa uncovered evidence of corruption. Also a lackey of the NWO.
'''Denji Inoue''' (Hermit): The psychiatrist who deemed Tsubasa to be a pathological liar and insane; he's secretly on the NWO's take, willing to fabricate cases of mental illness to discredit their opponents. That he didn't have to entirely fabricate Tsubasa's damage, given the trauma they'd faced and the life they'd lived, only made his life easier.
'''Daichi Furudate''' (Tower): The head of Furudate Development Industries, Furudate is a wealthy magnate who is always seeking new opportunities to develop land -- particularly in what he would call the criminally under-utilised area of Yongen-Jaya. (He develops people, occasionally, too.) He funnels plenty of bribes into City Hall to grease those wheels... and Tsubasa discovering that trail of dirty money is apparently what triggered their Psychotic Breakdown. Furudate is at the heart of Tsubasa's turn for the worse -- and now they've come across his radar again, he's turned his attention towards better utilising ''them.''

"Quit staring! There's nothin' wrong with me."

The Arsonist of City Hall had a bright future ahead of them, with a Shujin scholarship and a political internship under a new star, Kenta Nakajima. But one day, without warning, they burned down Nakajima's office around themself. When they were rescued from the fire, their rescuers found evidence of embezzlement, and realised Tsubasa was helping Nakajima steal public money. Their madness and the scandal of their boss's involvement earned Tsubasa a light sentence, but they lost their scholarship and their family's conditional support in the fallout. Now a yamanba-inspired yamanto punk in Kasugayama High, they cover their many horrific scars with outrageous fashion and the fakest tan around, and their female Tosa Inu called Lance has a ferocious fighting-dog reputation to match their own savage rumours. They're involved in a gang under Ichika Kawase, backing her up with gang violence, theft, academic misconduct, and vandalism, including their speciality: breaking and entering. Gruff, unapproachable, hostile and selfish, they are nonetheless fiercely compassionate and intelligent under the surface... though they hide their fatalism deep down, too. It's hard to believe in the future when theirs went up in flames.

Gender

Tsubasa is a he/they agender (musei) demiboy who uses they/them pronouns. Surviving in an AFAB body has led them to take on a masculine role and outlook in life in an effort to separate themself from being perceived as a girl, in part due to the lack of X-Gender gender roles in Japanese society. They prefer to be classed as one of the guys and differentiate themself from there, using makeup and loud fashion to establish themself as not quite male, either. They use a binder in order to masculinise their chest, but due to being a minor, they are presently unable to access hormones, and their extensive scarring has largely excluded surgery as an option for them despite their desire for it. While they exclusively use they/them in their normal life, they vastly prefer 'he/him' if gendered pronouns are to be applied to them at all, violently rejecting the alternative. Tsubasa is their chosen name, though their deadname, Tsubaki, comes up semi-frequently when their transphobic family or the NWO at large gets involved -- or whenever they have to visit the hospital or any other facility which refers to their legal name.

Or, more pithily: they're none gender with left boy.

Persona

Special Skills

They have a dog! A Tosa Inu named Lance. She is very smart and not very good at being a fighting dog.

They carry a knife in the hem of their pants. They're not very good at using it. They are decent at the kinds of street brawls gangs in Kasugayama get into, though, mostly on the basis of their anger and willingness to throw a punch more than on any specific training. (This also means they're easily defeated by making them feel bad.)

They're a proficient lockpicker, having picked up the skill in elementary school after they were locked out of their family home. (However, by the Boss's rules, they don't break into people's private homes.) They're also quite good at shoplifting, and frequently steal luxury goods which they can't source from the half-dozen charities they rely on for living goods.

They're surprisingly intelligent and adept at schoolwork, though they maintain a mere B average in most classes due to their lack of effort. They run academic plagiarism services on the side, and will write your essay for you... at a price.

They alter their own clothes, and know their way around a sewing machine, though they don't presently own one.

They're a good artist, working primarily in the realm of doodles and stencil graffiti; they also have hidden talents writing poetry and lyrics.

They can play the electric bass guitar, and used to be part of a Visual Kei band -- Chaos Chant -- which is why they have those skills in costume-making and lyric-writing. Sadly, Chaos Chant kicked them out, and is presently an all-male band playing in a garage near you.

They've been getting into card games, lately, with a particular focus on Faerie: the Beckoning.
