Koharus Past History
First Memory:
Her father and mother taking her to the park as a little girl and getting her a white balloon. It was the first gift they had given to her, and one of few.
Most important childhood event that still affects him/her:
The meeting of her adopted little sister, Bhu-Bhu.
Why/How?
It was the start of her regaining her affection and feelings of love. Her shield of acting tough would break and shatter. Growing up with her father and mother, she never received the attention she needed. She had grown up in a family where your birthday was not that important or used to manipulate someone else.
She was scared when she found out bhu would become a part of the family. She would be put through hell. Feeling guilty for letting her live this life, she decided she would protect her from it. Along the way, she began to adore her innocence and wanted to cherish it. She wanted to give Bhu a chance of life koharu never had had.
Other memories/events that still affects him/her and why/how:
Hours and hours of training and being beaten with a whip till a pool of blood surrounded her. She never had got to have any real fun, unless she snuck out during the night (which was a bad idea because then she didnât have enough energy to train the next day and got beaten). Fun was a high sacrifice she was not always willing to pay for. Her body was scarred physically and she is very insecure about her naked body.
Another event was her 10th birthday, her mother actually got her a gift; a white flower clip for her hair. Her mother had never given her such a gift, it made her think, "maybe she does love me,"
Past failures s/he would be embarrassed to have people know about and why:
The biggest thing was when she was in middle school and was in a "gang" she couldn't have ppl knowing she was the leader so she had Gerard pretend to be boss while she moved in the shadows. Few of the members knew who was the real leader(Gerard, keith, and junpei all knew.) one day, a rival gang threatened them, and took junpei as hostage because he was weak and heard he was favored among the gang. Koharu ordered an operation to get him back and failed. Not only did she loose junpei, but also a few other members. She watched junpei be shot through the head right before her eyes, she still remembered the feel of his blood on her face and tears that streamed down his face. There was a big funeral held for the comrades lost. This plus deaths lost in the mafia from her father caused her to later on give up this life. She quit it in sophmore year of highschool.
Biggest role model: Earl Grey
Why?
He was like the father she never had and had raised her, as well as helping her in training and assisting her in missions. He was always calm and collected, and very patient. The opposite of her father, which she admired, as well as the fact that Grey worked well with her father and was very loyal to him, despite her fathers shitty attitude. Earl was always constant and respected everyone no matter the circumstances.
He took over her training full time once she turned 15. Which was a relief on her part since she didn't have to deal with her father as much.
Biggest disillusions from childhood:
That if she was strong other people would not die. She didn't understand that the deaths around her were not her fault.
Backstory:
Koharu grew up in a Mafia(yakuza) family, with a strict etiquette mother and hot-headed father. Both expected her to take on being the families next heir since they could not bare any more children, she was a single child. They were going to raise her to beat women with extreme power and prestige.
She was seen as responsible at one point in her life, but once she got into middle school she became a bit of a trouble maker and started hanging out with hooligans. She couldnât skip school to catch up with her friends, so she struggled for 3 years. Going in and out of following her parents/school rules and being rebellious.
She was not allowed to have any fun, any pets, and any friends except those in Mafia who she could use. However, most people didnât even want to be her friend because of her family. The only people, who could stand her, were the hooligans-the outcasts.
She became more responsible once she hit high school, only because that was when she met Bhu and had to raise her. A lot of stuff happened in the end though and they were separated. On a positive note, she was reunited with uta.
Once Koharu became an adult, she hung out with Uta very frequently- who was a friend she had met back in the old days(when they were little kids). The girl was stupid and always hung out with her despite her family lineage. She often went up to her room and talked to her through the window. She and her brother ate dinner with her family and would come play with her in her room on her days off(although rare). And No matter how mean Koharu was to her, Uta always came back. In return, even with Koharus attitude, as part of the mafia, she had a sense pride and strong urge to protect those dear to her. She had seen Uta as a little sister who stuck it out with her even through all her crap.

Has this character dealt with the loss of someone they knew?
At her fathers passing, She complied to the demands of her mother of becoming the mafias heir after years of resistance...since it would be what her father wanted.
However, later on she realized her connections with them would affect the ones with her friends and loved ones. Remembering her fathers last words, she knew he would want her to be happy and live a normal life... So she cut off ties. Leaving the mafia in Lena hands.
Bhu quit right after that, and then some time later, so did Luka.
Lastly, The death of her two best friends still weighs heavily on her heart; junpei and Keith.
How does this character deal with or react to:
Conflict/Danger:
She will face it head on by herself so that no one else gets hurt.
Nowadays though, she's noticed all the men fighting just as hard as her to protect the ones they love and cherish. She hopes she can protect them too.
Rejection:
Depression; she isolates herself from others, sulks, and drinks sometimes.
Fear:
She erases the fear and does something about it so that she wonât be scared (unless itâs little things, she will avoid things like water altogether). The exception applies to sexual or anything relationship wise.
Change:
Takes her a bit of getting used too but continues on.
Loss:
She is used to it, but still bares sadness. She pretends like it doesn't affect her on the outside and breaks bit by bit on the inside. She often blames the loss on herself and part of her getting over the loss is realizing it wasn't her fault.
Sex/Flirting:
From people other then Gackt; irritation and annoyance.
From Gackt; blushes uncontrollably, is quiet, might hide face, and will sometimes be bold. Sometimes she might even walk away or jab him with words if she's reaaally embaressed.
Pain:
Physical pain she can tolerate and deal with, however emotional pain is hard for her and often times she just shuts hetself down and isolates herself from the world.
Stress:
Cannot sleep

No reaction, she has a strong will.
Guilt:
She buries it deep inside and tries to forget about it so she wont feel that way

gets quiet, apologizes, or lashes out with smart remark depending on who it is.

Calls names back, gives a warning hit, or walks away.

A soft smile and genuine thank you.
Being loved:
Itâs hard for her to accept someone such as Gackt, whose is perfect in every way to her, and she cherishes him and loves him in return. She wants to be with him through the good, the bad, and the ugly. Sometimes she acts like an idiot but it always works out in the end.

Depending on who: doesnât care. if friends: she feels like she might die.

Will act tough and pretend like it doesnât bother her
How does this character express?
Anger:
Mean words or actions such as punching or threatening to hurt someone. When angry with a friend she will often ignore them.

Depression, isolation, and music. When she is sad, it's habit for her to hold back the tears. Gackt is one of the few people she can actually cry around.
Fear:
Doesnât express it unless going heads on towards it counts as a way of expressig herself.
Happiness/Excitement:
Smiling, agreeing, kindness, hugs, and tears. When overly happy, she cries because she is so overwhelmed with the wonderful feeling. Happiness was rare for her as a kid, so expeiancig it now she knows no other way to react. Tears were never expressed in sadness or pain in her upbringing.
Love:
With them 100% and returns actions of affection, even doing something spontaneously nice like make them dinner or clean for them or buy them a gift or just call/send a text to say how much they mean to her. Although her rak(random act of kindness) are rare.
Lust:
Avoidance
Stress/anxiety:
Doesnât express it except through music which she doesn't do much anymore. Because she doesn't express he stress and axiety she will have a bad attitude, be on edge, and suffer from lack of sleep and nightmares. Gackt and uta are one of the few koharu can openly tall to about her feelings, and bhu and Luka more of pry it put of her because they know she doesn't bring up her problems often.
Dislike (of a person, thing, or idea):
Out-right speaks her mind. If some one posses her off, she'll tell them. If someone annoys her, she will say something, and if that question, "do I look fat?" comes up, I hope you're ready for the honest answer.
If others tell her to be nice even when she doesn't like that person, she becomes disturbingly silent.
How does this character generally express themselves?
Through music and most times her blunt actions that speak louder then words.

Lastly, The death of her two best friends still weighs heavily on her heart; junpei and Keith.

Rejection:
Depression; she isolates herself from others, sulks, and drinks sometimes.
Fear:
She erases the fear and does something about it so that she wonât be scared (unless itâs little things, she will avoid things like water altogether). The exception applies to sexual or anything relationship wise.
Change:
Takes her a bit of getting used too but continues on.
Loss:
She is used to it, but still bares sadness. She pretends like it doesn't affect her on the outside and breaks bit by bit on the inside. She often blames the loss on herself and part of her getting over the loss is realizing it wasn't her fault.
Sex/Flirting:
From people other then Gackt; irritation and annoyance.

Depending on who: doesnât care. if friends: she feels like she might die.

Fear:
Doesnât express it unless going heads on towards it counts as a way of expressig herself.
Happiness/Excitement:
Smiling, agreeing, kindness, hugs, and tears. When overly happy, she cries because she is so overwhelmed with the wonderful feeling. Happiness was rare for her as a kid, so expeiancig it now she knows no other way to react. Tears were never expressed in sadness or pain in her upbringing.
Love:
With them 100% and returns actions of affection, even doing something spontaneously nice like make them dinner or clean for them or buy them a gift or just call/send a text to say how much they mean to her. Although her rak(random act of kindness) are rare.
Lust:
Avoidance
Stress/anxiety:
Doesnât express it except through music which she doesn't do much anymore. Because she doesn't express he stress and axiety she will have a bad attitude, be on edge, and suffer from lack of sleep and nightmares. Gackt and uta are one of the few koharu can openly tall to about her feelings, and bhu and Luka more of pry it put of her because they know she doesn't bring up her problems often.
Dislike (of a person, thing, or idea):
Out-right speaks her mind. If some one posses her off, she'll tell them. If someone annoys her, she will say something, and if that question, "do I look fat?" comes up, I hope you're ready for the honest answer.
If others tell her to be nice even when she doesn't like that person, she becomes disturbingly silent.
How does this character generally express themselves?
Through music and most times her blunt actions that speak louder then words.

Chinese Zodiac: rooster (year 1981)
A Rooster is brave, funny and witty. Entertaining and performing puts them in the centre of attention, which is exactly where they enjoy being. They can be picky, vain and critical.
Roosters can be really eccentric and sometimes may seem selfish in their way of life. They are devoted to work and lifelong learning. Confident, motivated people, they may sometimes come across as pompous. While they can be brutally honest, they are also loyal and trustworthy.
Roosters are intelligent creatures that are reliable and self-efficient. They are good with money and sometimes manage other people's money better than their own. Punctual people with highly-disciplined minds, Roosters boast excellence at organizing people and things. They also love to be praised for it.
They are prone to changeable mood surges that leave them either extremely happy or very miserable. Similarly with their opinions and personal relationships, Roosters have no place for apathy in their lives. They either like or dislike intensely.
Astrological Zodiac: august 15-Leo
The Sun is your ruling planet Leo. Of course the Sun is not really a planet; it is the center of our solar system. And, as above, so below! You shine as brightly as the Golden globe because you reflect the characteristics of the heavenly body that rules your star sign!
You too are a ball of dynamic energy. You are warm, bright and self-motivated, and you want to make an impression in everything you do â your work, your love life and your social life.
Because you are extremely generous, you expect others to be just as big-hearted. So when you see others holding back, you find it hard to not jump in and try to change that. You want to see everyone giving to the best of their ability. To other people, you can look like a bit of a tyrant, asking for more than they can give.
When you are feeling upbeat, you carry people away with your energy, and they love you for it. You love sharing your joys and successes with the people you love, and when you do, you are magnanimous â you never give a thought to getting anything in return. There are few star signs who really understand the nature of giving, but Leo seems to have perfected the art.
You also have a great sense of timing. When you offer a friendly word or gesture of encouragement, you pick the exact moment when it will have greatest impact. You always seem to be in the right place at the right time. Youâre lucky this way.
Try to remember that your strong sense of self can be misinterpreted by others â understatement could sometimes be a more effective way for you to show your loyalty and express your generosity.
Some people think you are a show-off, but this too is a mistake. Your dramatic flair is part and parcel of your zest for life, your love of people and your optimism. For you, life is a stage on which you can perform and express your talents.
You may not be a performer on the entertainment stage, but Mick Jagger, a Leo, is, and he is a very good example of the strutting, egotistical nature of Leo. Mick exudes charisma, creativity and a personal style all his own. Not only that, but he has embedded his brand name as No. 1 in the rock industry, decade after decade. On the stage of life, you too will want to be No. 1, and to present yourself as someone special, with unique talents.
Loyalty is your trademark. People know you are a genuine friend who is always ready to lend a hand. Even if you canât help someone with their specific problem, you still manage to send out a warm and reassuring vibration that makes them feel better.
On the other hand, you also have a need to âone-upâ others. A little more humility wouldnât hurt. You will get plenty of praise and recognition for your energy and your self-motivation â you donât need to big-note yourself. People will instantly recognize your abilities, and many will look up to you. Try not to let this go to your head; remind yourself occasionally to âget off your high horseâ.
Leoâs totem is the lion, lord of the jungle â full of muscularity, grace and ferocity. This means that your physical appetites and general level of energy are extraordinarily high. You need to be physically mobile and fully engaged in meaningful work and social activities to feel good.
You are a born leader: people naturally gravitate to you, and look to you for guidance and security. This is especially true if you are born in the very first part of Leo - that is you're born between 24th July and 3rd August. At times you can seem a hard taskmaster, demanding excellence from them â this is just a reflection of your own actions, your own approach, but keep an eye out for it, and keep it under control.
For Leos born between the 4th and 14th of August, Jupiter and Sagittarius have a strong sway over your life. You are adventurous and love to travel, learn about new cultures and explores the world and people. Mostly easygoing you attract many friends and seem to be in the right place at the right time. You're one of the lucky Leos.
Are you a Leo born between the 15th and 23rd August? Then your fighting spirit is second to none! Nothing gets in the road of your ambitions so its quite clear that you will achieve what you set your heart upon. My only comment is that you should never tread on anyone's toes on the way up the ladder of success. You might just have to deal with them on the way down!
Generally you have a pioneering spirit; this is connected to your desire to be the best. So while you could be quite happy with a life where you follow other peopleâs rules and regulations, mostly youâll much prefer to blaze your own trail.
This means you will carve out your own niche and make a name for yourself. Youâll shine in almost everything you do, and will without a doubt make your mark in the world â you can reach the top of the ladder, no matter what field you choose.
August 15 -23
Impatience and a hot-headed nature are some of the problems you face being born between the 15th and the 23rd of August. Once you can bring these emotions under control you have a much better chance of not only being successful but finding happiness in your personal affairs as well. Because of the strong influence of Mars and Aries on your birthday you have a strong ego and need to understand that others may just be right sometimes. Notwithstanding these negative traits, you do have a very generous nature and are affectionate to the ones you care for.
