Arikan Chi Emerson
" I'm like a junkie without an addiction. Mama don't cry, I just wanna stay high, like playing with danger or fear. Everybody's walking but nobody's talking. It looks a lot better from here."
| "All I know is I don't wanna stop. All fired up, I'm gonna go 'til I drop. You're either in or in the way, don't make me, I don't want to stop." |

appearance
Arikan is an Asian, young adult. He wears contacts which change his eye color- he especially likes bright blue. And the reason he likes bright blue is because he has his hair dyed orange. However, his eyes are actually a golden, light brown like his father's. He's proud of it yet tries to spice things up with different colored contacts. Without contacts he can see close to him, just not far away.

Personality;
Spontaneous
{If he suddenly decides to go make a chocolate pie, he will. So you're either in or you're out. These sudden whims come frequently and are usually not negotiable, though he is realistic in knowing when impossible is 'wait, try again later'.}
Free spirited
{Ares doesn't let anything tie him down. He's free. Uncommitted, and free.
Intelligent
{Ares is a very intelligent person. He is driven enough to find the answers to the things he wants to know, and he's constantly learning something new
Verbal Memorization
{Ares is great at memorizing things that are verbal. If you tell him a phone number, he memorizes the tones you use. He can mimic the said tones to reveal that he does indeed know what was said. He's definitely a 'hear it' kinda person. Reading, he tends to just focus on the 'big picture', and cannot retain all those little details and words used save for when it's read to him, in which case he remembers more.}
Quiet
{If he wants to talk, he does. But he doesn't ramble often, and he doesn't always talk. At times he has been known to ignore someone purely because he doesn't feel like talking. He's especially bad in the mornings- don't ask him in the mornings to talk to you. He either will start a conversation or he won't. And though he will talk on the cell phone occasionally, usually you better talk to him in person.}

Goals;
Old man take a look at my life, I'm a lot like you were.
{Ares is a lot like his father. He looks like his father, he acts like him, and he believes in him. It wasn't always so. He came to terms with him and understood him. What his father did througout his life, what he tried to teach his son, was easier to see when Ares was sent away to Somnium Academy. If he could, he'd like to be like his father, and he'd like to make his father proud.}

One look in my eyes and you can tell that's true.
{Ares wanted to make a difference in the world. He wants to do something to be remembered, something to change the world even if he must do it with someone else or a group of people.}

Give me things that won't get lost, like a coin that won't get tossed.
{Ares wants to find something that he can depend on. Something he won't lose. This seems ideal. Not relationships, and not materials, but something. . .maybe a memory? Maybe a home? Maybe his education? Whatever it is, he wants to find /something/, even if it is a person to love and depend upon.}

I need someone to love me the whole day through. One look in my eyes and you can tell that's true.
{Ares wants to find a few good friends, people who are truly his friends and not in it for their own selfish gain. If he can find people who are genuine, he feels his life would be good.}

Doesn't mean that much to me to mean that much to you.
{Can't someone get him? Really, really get him. To see beyond what he says, and to know when he's lying? Some may thin that'd be obnixous, but he rather likes the idea of it. They should be on the same page as him. Not that he expects them to catch every single lie, but to be the kind of person that can see through them to the extent that he doesn't bother to lie. To find such a person would be ultimate in his mind.}

family & history

MOTHER: Kazumi, forty-five - the mediator, the peace maker, the one to sort out all of the family's differences.

OTHER FAMILY: N/A

HISTORY:
Ares was born in an interesting, small town. It was once a mining town until the mine collapsed, killing the miners. Such a tragic event became the tale they told to scare. Ares fell victim to it until he got older, at which point the tables turned and he scared the little kids and the tourists. However, such a small town was passed by save for their fourth of July celebration. And what a celebration it was! The highlight was watching the fireworks over the lake, as well a sunsets over the water.

Not that there was ever a lack of things to do. His house, more a cabin than house, had a stream running through the backyard. During the July celebration they sent ducks down the river as a sort of contest and they flowed right through his backyard. And with so much land they had cows and horses both. It was a peaceful life, a nice life. Unlike populated towns, it was laid back. You could ride your horse- or your fourwheeler- wherever you wanted. Which he did. The fourwheeler was his favorite toy from the time he was nine onward. Of course this lead to plenty of injuries, one such injury that left a nasty scar on the back of his head. He had to shave his head and get stitches. Fortunately his hair grew back, and now you can't see the scar unless you push aside his hair. He also came to tumble down a few hills after falling off his fourwheeler or crashing into objects. Even so, he always got right back on the vehicle.

Sometimes trying again doesn't solve everything. Arikan knew that first hand. He had the opposite of diabetes in a sense, which was hypoglycemia. As a result he had to take sugar pills. Most would think "Oh, you're so lucky!". However, Arikan's body isn't really used to that sugar, so it's actually a negative thing for him. He doesn't like sugar like a normal person would, per se. Not that it'll kill him. Not having it would be more dangerous and more unpleasant.

dream form

Ares becomes a blond, German soldier. If you remove the shirt of his uniform you find that the beating of his heart is like the ticking of a clock upon his chest. You can see the gears of the said clock, though not the face or hands.If you try to touch the gears, there's a transparent layer of skin. You could press hard and feel the gears, proving it's not a tattoo.

The reason is probably partially due to his wish that time would reverse. And perhaps because he secretly desires to make a difference in the world. One such way would be to be a part of the military. Germany because Germany is diverse. From the freedom of the autobahn, to the strictness of the world war II government. . . He believes in duty, in responsibility, in honor, and in fighting for what you believe in. Though he wants peace, he also wants to make a point. And he wants the bond of the military comrades. Also, he's a logical strategist, so the idea of being in the military is good. To be a soldier opposed to a general is humbling, though perhaps mostly due to his young age. His annoyance at repeating himself, his lack of desire to talk, and his annoyance at people who don't enforce what they say is almost entirely avoided by the military world he'd take on. The general would not repeat himself, wouldn't ask Arikan to say much, and would back up what he said.
