.::.Personal Information.::.
//Name//: Kyo Suzuki
//Age//: 15 y/o (will soon be 16)
//Gender//: Male
//Sexuality//: Heterosexual
//Nationality//: Japanese
//Appearance//:
//Personality//:
Conflicting Traits: Shy, but devoted friend
Kyo, though he would not seem it at first glance, is rather shy. It is only around the people whom he knows really well that he will really interact and be outgoing with. It is not that he dislikes other people, but rather he is not always sure how to approach them. If he feels comfortable around the person in question, he may attempt to strike up a conversation. If not, he will simply avoid talking. If they want to talk to him, he is sure, then they will do it on their own. However, once he knows someone well, he knows how to simply "sit back and enjoy life."
With his friends and family, he is bubbly and enthusiastic, eagerly planning get-togethers. In many ways the optimist (and yes, in some cases, the pessimist), Kyo loves to try new things.
It sounds almost unreasonable, but similar to his own father, Kyo does not have much trouble with his anger. It's not that he doesn't get angry, but more so that he can remain passive in angering situations. That's not to say that he cannot get angry or has never been that way, but if there isn't a truly solid reason for being upset, it usually doesn't bother him. In many ways he can be passive and oftentimes, when he can help it, he tries not to choose sides in an argument if he does not know the stories behind both.
He truly is an average person in the sense that he goes through all kinds of emotions, just like any other human being. However, as with anger, Kyo will not typically feel sad "to the point of tears" unless in a dire situation. His feelings and emotions are very moderate in this sense.
//Top 3 Strengths//:
//Top 3 Weaknesses//:
One of Kyo's biggest fears is water. He is hydrophobic to the utmost degree, mostly due to the fact he cannot swim and has always failed trying it. It is not so strong a fear that he won't go to a beach or near a bathtub, but it is prominent enough that he will usually pass up when offered to take a swim or get lessons on how to do so.
Though he is also very enthusiastic about learning about new cultures and visiting new places, much like his parents, Kyo constantly worries that he will appear inferior to the locals, mainly because of his inability to speak the language. This could possibly be one reason why he is so adamant to learn.
//Hobbies//:
One of Kyo's favorite past times is singing and exploring music, but this is something he does not usually show, outwardly.
//Habits//:
Kyo likes to ask a lot of questions, generally because he long ago learned that doing so--while potentially embarrassing--helped him to discover even more about what was and is around him. He is also very animated and enthusiastic, oftentimes called, "That Italian" by his close family because he always uses large gestures when speaking.
.::.Family Information.::.
//Family//:
Father: Shidou Suzuki (Living, 40 y/o)
Shidou was once a reckless daredevil, but his “adrenaline-junkie” nature ended with the birth of his only child. Ever since, and to this day, he is a mature, devoted father figure. At his current age, he is more passive and easy-going. It is rare for him to become angry without a good motive for it; he has no anger issues or tantrum problems. This sort of calm behavior is derived from the fact that he had already lived out his wild days in his youth (and that he must be a devoted father).
Mother: Kazue Suzuki (Maiden Name: Nakamura) (Living, 38 y/o)
Kazue, unlike Kyo's father, was always very passive. Kyo's grandmother on his father's side often tells him that it was Kazue who managed to calm Shidou's wild tendencies, making him the devoted father he currently is. Very intelligent and independent, Kazue is a businesswoman who helps support the family as much as Shidou and is known for her admirable cooking skills.
//Family Income/Economic Level//: Middle-class. The family does very well on its own and has learned to spend/invest wisely over the years, hence its ability to fund Kyo's trip to America. The Suzuki Family lives in a medium-sized apartment in Odaiba, Japan and has never had any prominent economic trouble.
//Biography//: Kyo has lived a very normal life. He was born to Shidou and Kazue Suzuki in Odaiba, Japan on November 15, 1992. Being the only child of the couple, he was often given their attention and therefore slightly doted upon. He attended his first school starting at the age of 4 and passed all of his classes with above average marks. He has done well since, and is currently in high school.
Unfortunately, neither he nor his parents feel that schooling in Japan alone will be sufficient enough to have a worldly education. Before he began school at 15, he and his parents made plans for him to study abroad in the USA, where he could further improve his English and simply gain a better grasp of the Western world.
Now, nearly 16, he is flying out to Pittsburgh, PA with many doubts in his mind. The United States is very different from Odaiba, and though he is willing and excited to try new things, he is also very nervous that he will not fit in. But moving to the United States is sure to have many benefits for Kyo, and perhaps he will learn a thing or two.
