A young country boy from the city of Kitsuki in the Oita prefecture.
Rather reckless, he is calculating with people, and somewhat antisocial. However once he warms up to people, he's talkative and funny, more a jokester at times than serious. He is highly intelligent, or so his teachers and parents always told him, but he lacked the drive to do much with his life. He has a bit of wanderlust, curiosity gets the better of him, and he's full of determination. He has a defiance complex, on which he will go to great lengths to defy the opposition.
Carries a small dagger and Colt .45 he stole from his dad when he ran away.
Always can be found with a Zippo and a pack of Golden Bat brand cigarettes.
Black, leather trench coat with a short, v-cut tail, brown pants, Leather combat boots, and a dragon-print, cotton undershirt are his usual attire. Though the shirt and pants change color or style from day to day, the trench coat is sort of his thing.
Always having a sense of wanderlust, Nobu left his family's farm at eighteen and headed to the city. After bouncing from job to job, and going into debts he could never pay off, Nobu joined the Yakuza seeking family, and protection. To this day, he remains loyal, even if he despises some of the things he has to do to keep on their good side.
