MKK Protag

Mortal Kombat Konquest Protagonist

Male, Akayama Kaito, with that being surname first name.

He was born in Kyoto, but he spent most of his formative years being hauled across Japan by his thrill-seeking father. This led to him developing a keen sense of wanderlust to go along side a carefree personality. When it comes to kombat he is snarky and agressive.

He was trained by his father, who was a passable disciple of an ancient chinese style called Bloody Hands. He mostly sticks to that style and its focus on the rending attacks that give the style its name, but due to the incomplete nature of his tutelage he occasionally integrates a move he has seen or created. Bloody Hands is in general a very fast, close ranged style that focuses on either ripping your enemy to shreds before they can react, or causing enough profuse bleeding to finish off any attacker that manages to retreat to range. His father used to tell him legends of old masters who would appear to be wreathed in red lightning while fighting with these techniques. To an observer, this style's brutality is in stark contrast to Kaito's apparent nature.

Once he was old enough to live on his own, his father abandoned him without saying a word about his intentions. After this, Kaito continued his roaming lifestyle, but as fight after fight began to pile up he began to want something more. His whole life he'd never been taught the importance of having a purpose, and now he's struggling to find something more meaningful than mindless bloodletting. He's come to this tournament not just for the fame, but to find something worthwhile to fight for. As for his fears, in addition to issues with trust and abandonment after his father left him, he has begun to feel guilty about the sheer brutality of his fighting style after seeing more peaceful lifestyles during his travels. He fears that he will get lost in his bloodlust if he is not careful, and sometimes he swears that an ominous presence is delighting in the blood he spills.
