Name ~ Ezra Chikara
Gender ~ Male
Age ~ 18
Species ~ Human
Alignment ~ Chaotic good
Myers Briggs Type ~ ESTP
Appearance ~ Ezra, like Lydia, is Japanese-American, but is tall and fairly muscular. He has messy dark-brown hair and dark eyes. Also unlike his sister, he doesn’t seem to care too much about how he dresses, and tends to wear dark-colored jackets and torn-up jeans.
Personality ~
Ezra is a generally laid-back, kindhearted person. He often rushes into things without properly thinking it through; and often pays the price for doing so. He has a very stubborn nature, and will not allow anyone or anything keep him from reaching his goals (primarily, finding his little sister).
He's constantly at war with himself, feeling self-hatred for purposefully abandoning his sister. However he won't show it, and instead masks it with an upbeat and positive attitude. He even goes so far as telling lies to others who inquire about the sister that he so fervently searches for. He hopes that reuniting with her will help him make amends.
He really likes being around small children, and has a strong brotherly instinct towards anyone younger than himself. He also has a protective nature, and will risk everything for those that he truly cares about.
Strengths ~ He is pretty good with a gun (though he dislikes using it unless he has to), and is pretty tough in a fight. When he was younger he used to simultaneously carry his heavy backpack (sometimes groceries) and Lydia (because she liked to be carried).
Weaknesses ~ He tends to rush into things, and doesn’t always think his plans through carefully before he acts upon them. He’s also easily distracted, and isn’t the most perceptive.
History ~
Ezra was born to a nice, loving and caring family. He had an adorable younger sister who he loved to spend time with. Even though both of his parents worked, they both still managed to find the time to spend with their children. However, one day when Ezra was only ten years old, his parents were murdered by a street gang. Being the only family his little sister had left, he dedicated himself to taking care of her.
All seemed to be going fairly well for the two of them. Though he was still young, Ezra found little ways to earn enough money to support them. However, things weren’t as well as they appeared. In a time when things seemed hopeless, Ezra resorted to joining the very gang that murdered their parents in order to get more money.
He regretted this decision terribly, but by then it was too late.
Feeling ashamed of himself for resorting to something so terrible, he ran away one day and didn’t return. Of course, this was another decision he greatly regretted as not too much long afterwards the apocalypse began.
He returned to the apartment one day, only to find it empty and relatively destroyed. He was convinced, however, that Lydia was still alive somewhere, as a few of her most precious belongings (most notably Shelby the rabbit and a few volumes of Sailor Moon) were missing as well. He has now dedicated himself to finding her again, and apologizing for abandoning her.
