Story

Airi was born in Kyria to one of the most well-regarded courtesans in the Northern District. It was a difficult birth, and she died shortly after, but the other courtesans continued to work together to raise him. Though he was initially expected to continue his mother's legacy, as he grew up it quickly became clear that he lacked both her beauty and her charm. He instead began working various odd jobs once he was old enough and had quite the talent for both thievery and fighting.

The trajectory of his life changed quite drastically after meeting Lys. Though he was originally hired to

Personality

Airi is stoic and mature, to the point where it's almost always impossible to tell what he's thinking. He's not the type for idle chatter, and will rarely say much more than absolutely necessary. Most of his relationships are rather distant, but he has a small core group of people who he cares about deeply and is fiercely protective of them. While he tends to get quickly irritated with strangers, he's surprisingly nurturing and patient with those he cares about. Because he feels the need to be responsible for those around him he tends to be a very serious, no-nonsense person. While he does occasionally show a sense of humor, it's so deadpan it's often hard to tell when he's joking.


Trivia
  • The kind of person who always has a knife on him. Also pretty effective with improvised weapons.
  • Surprisingly good with kids.
  • Uncomfortable around dogs.
  • Quite good with housework and cooking, though he rarely makes anything very complex.
Relationships
Lys [ Childhood Friend/Family ]

Lys is, by far, the most important person in the world to Airi. He's built his life around him since they were children, and couldn't imagine being without him. Because of Lys's more immature nature Airi tends to act as something of a babysitter, making sure he doesn't get in TOO much trouble and smoothing over any issues he causes... one way or another. Despite their close relationship, Airi has no romantic interest in Lys, but will prioritize him over any romantic relationships.

Piper [ Family ]

Airi is fond of Piper, seeing them as something of a younger sibling. They're one of the few people who he tolerates despite being much more extroverted than he's accustomed to. He finds himself taking care of them often since Lys isn't very good with kids. Despite the fact that they're about two decades younger than Lys he feels more comfortable leaving them to their own devices than him.

Eve [ Family ]

Despite having very little in common Airi and Eve share a strong relationship. Her more quiet, subdued nature makes her easy for him to get along with and they're mutually happy to spend time together in complete silence. As with the rest of the makeshift family, he's quite protective of her, but he also sees her as the most mature and capable and worries less about her than Lys and Piper.

Eflasia [ Acquaintance ]

Despite their opposing views, Airi has a lot of respect for Eflasia. They're very similar people, both tend to be blunt and not openly emotional. Eflasia often finds herself using Airi as a go-between to avoid conversation with Lys as much as possible. In a casual setting they're quite comfortable around each other, but their difference in alliance prevents them from becoming close friends.
