Satoshi decided to dye his hair when he turned 16, in an attempt to add something "colorful" to his life at his parents' insistence, and ended up rather liking it. His hair is naturally black but now only his roots show up black, the rest of his hair a dull yellow color. Satoshi's eyes are golden like a cat's and his skin is pale from only going outdoors in his garden. XX
When it comes to clothing, Satoshi puts comfort above all else, having no real care for fashion or what "looks good" compared to something else. He does have a preference for sweats and hooded sweatshirts, as they're warm and cozy and he can easily hide away in his hood. Satoshi doesn't accessorize unless it's a hat or gloves in the winter, and he most often wears scarves pulled all the way up to his chin when it's cold out. XX

Satoshi has an explicit fear of meeting and getting close to other people. He's terrified of what others think about him, and how they might react if a friendship ever goes South. He's scared of people hating him and scared of people liking him, but only being disappointed when they find out he's not so interesting after all. He's also scared of coming to depend on someone, only for them to disappear and leave him with a hole in his heart even wider than it is already. XX
When it comes to leadership, Satoshi is by far the last person anyone would want in their chain of command. He's too flaky and unsociable to even know how to lead others. He doesn't want to be in charge of anyone else's life, at any rate. Satoshi is a follower by nature, but at the same time, he'll resort to disappearing if he feels the leadership isn't right for what needs completed. XX
Satoshi is not warm or comforting, not unless you're someone very special to him, the only person of which is already dead. However, there is a part of him that yearns to get past his fear, even if he never actually listens to that part of himself. In time, he might come to value it more. XX
POWER ; Satoshi's power is Invisibility, meaning he can cause himself (and any objects he holds on his person) completely invisible to the eye at will. Satoshi, having learned to utilize his skill at a very young age, has incredible stamina and can go for hours while unseen. However, the more he holds with him (baggage, etc.) the faster he'll tire, and he becomes easily exhausted if he tries to keep another person invisible with him for longer than a few minutes. XX

backstory
Satoshi's bloodline is of the Chiba family, a rather "unknown" family residing in Oyamazaki, Japan. He gets his power from his mother's side; his father took on his mother's family name when they married, as he had no living relatives of his own. Satoshi was born when his mother and father were both only nineteen years old, fresh into university and madly in love. At that time Satoshi's father had no idea the woman he wanted to marry could turn herself invisible at will. XX
He didn't discover this fact until Satoshi was an infant, and they had decided to move into his mother's family home. Satoshi was only half a year old when he threw a tantrum on the midst of his parents quarreling and disappeared, making it apparent he'd inherited the family ability. XX
Thankfully, Satoshi's father took it all in stride. However, Satoshi saw little of his father growing up. The man had, instead of choosing to help raise his son, chosen to invest all his time in the Chiba family business, which happened to be caring for a local plant nursery. Always too busy. XX
Satoshi spent all of his time growing up with his mother, Kirie. She was a calm, peaceful, and understanding person. She always knew what was going on his head; she knew when to hide him from his cousins' chaotic play-styles, from his aunt's frustrations, from his grandmother's constant prodding for him to "learn to become a man." Satoshi became accustomed to quiet and started to fear noise, avoiding his loud relatives at every turn to hide in his mother's room. XX
Chiba Kirie chose to homeschool Satoshi, knowing public school would be too much for him to bear, and Satoshi easily excelled in his studies under her guidance. He was a fast learner, eager to please her. But despite all the things she taught him, she never told him about their bloodline's importance or anything about his powers that he wouldn't figure out all on his own. XX
When Satoshi was fourteen, his grandfather, after whom he was named, passed away. Kirie had always been close to her father, and after his death she quickly began to deteriorate. She spoke little, slept a lot, and started to reject her family. But she never rejected Satoshi. He slept by her side, never leaving her alone unless he absolutely had to. She would tell him stories of him as a child, of her own childhood, and of course, many stories about her father's lifetime. XXX
But no matter how avidly Satoshi listened, no matter what he said to her, it wasn't enough. She spiraled down into an abyss of depression she never came out of, and one morning, Satoshi awoke in her futon to find her hanging from the beams above him, tangled in their bedsheets. XX
It wasn't until Satoshi's mother was gone that he began to see why she'd always hidden him away from her family. His grandmother was a pushy and stern woman, refusing to take no for an answer and always trying to force him into learning about his bloodline when he really didn't want to. His uncle was an irresponsible man who couldn't hold to his word on anything. His aunt was a lovesick child in an adult's body, always complaining about the men who had got her pregnant and then disappeared, and Satoshi's cousins were all as obnoxious as could be. XX
Satoshi easily perfected the art of escapism, and built up stamina in his power simply by having to use it constantly to get from room to room in his house without notice. His father, now taking his father-in-law's place at the family company, never so much as tried to speak to Satoshi about his mother or anything else, and Satoshi simply hid himself away from them all. XX
When Satoshi discovered a letter from his mother hidden under their futon, with tickets to Berlin and a message saying "use these when you hear the call", Satoshi kept an ear out. And when he finally did hear what he could only describe as the call of something, Satoshi packed up everything he owned and left home without so much as a note goodbye, making his first venture outside his own house since he had arrived there as an infant in his mother's arms.
