[Background]
http://souleater.wikia.com/wiki/Black%E2%98%86Star [Personality] If there was a picture definition of self-confidence or arrogance, Black☆Star would be there with his thumb up and a huge grin on his face. He is the epitome of self-confidence -- so confident in himself that he can even explain off his failures because of his greatness. Black☆Star claims that he is the one who will surpass God and that he is number one in all aspects. If anyone seems to stand out more than he does, he gets pissed pretty quick and will either challenge them to a fight or do something obnoxious to stand out more. He's spastic, energetic and loud; so loud in fact that he tends to botch up his own stealth missions by yelling something obnoxious.
Black☆Star is pretty self-deluded, but while that can be an annoyance to some...it seems to be the source of his strength. It is because he believes he is so great that he becomes great. He never allows himself to think he can lose because that would be worse than being defeated. If there is an obstacle in his way, then you can bet he will push through it. He houses raw determination to persevere and has drive like you wouldn't believe, proving that while he is 90% talk...he CAN back up those words.
You would think that with such pride and arrogance, Black☆Star would be unable to relate to others. And you would be correct! The truth is, he can show a considerable amount of compassion on the rare occasion. There was a moment when his weapon Tsubaki had come back from battling her brother. She's the type of person who always hides her feelings for the sake of others. After returning, she claimed that she was fine. Knowing better, Black☆Star questioned her again and said that she can come and hug the great Black☆Star. Tsubaki then broke down while he comforted her. It is rare that he shows this side, but behind that mask of confidence...there is a kid that cares very deeply for his friends.
But that certainly doesn't mean he's the brightest. As a matter of fact, he studies hard for all of his exams and still manages to get zeros, which is really quite impressive. Black☆Star will be the first to try something without thinking; he's a doer not a thinker...and that often stands as his battle strategy.
Over the course of the manga, he has matured considerably. While he's still obnoxious and moronic, there's a part of him that's much more serious now. After having killed a warrior he respected greatly, he's carrying the man's legacy on his shoulders and in a scar on his arm -- and has vowed to become a bushin for his sake.
[Abilities]
Soul Menace: Soul Eater canon deals a lot in the strength of the soul and various attacks are centered around it. Black☆Star has the ability to literally drive his soul wavelength into someone else and attack them from the inside out. It comes off similar to electrocution, and he simply needs to make contact with his hand in order to hit his opponent. Not only that, but his soul appears to be incredibly strong -- much stronger than most, giving him a MUCH more powerful burst of energy when he attacks. This attack alone generally isn't enough to kill an opponent, but definitely enough to knock them out or at the very least jar them if they're extremely strong of soul.
Madness: In the recent chapters, Black☆Star acquired a new ability to use the madness wavelength as a tool for strengthening his attacks. This allows him to become increasingly stronger and even enhances some of his skills with Tsubaki -- however, it runs a risk of driving him completely mad.
Physical abilities: Black☆Star has always excelled above the rest as far as strength and agility go. He is the perfect ninja (or would be if he wasn't so loud and obnoxious -- though he has gotten much better). He can do some ridiculous number of push ups and pull ups (like in the thousands) and has a ridiculously high stamina. All in all, he's the definition of a shounen hero -- stupid, obnoxious, and STRONG.
[Other important stuff] Nothing I can really think to note!
[Sample post]
[First Person]
Heh.
....
IF THIS PLACE IS A WORLD OF DREAMS, THEN CONSIDER YOURS COME TRUE!!! I'M THE MAN WHO WILL SURPASS GOD, THE BIGGEST AND BEST EXISTENCE YOU'VE EVER HAD THE HONOR OF LAYING YOUR EYES ON. I'M THE GODLY BLACK☆STAR!!!! Feel free to clap. I'll be doing an autograph session immediately after this, too.
I guess this place makes an okay stage. A little too small for my liking. But the spotlight's okay, and the fans are here, so I can make my big debut work.
Eh? Ya mean I gotta say more than that? My name alone should be more than enough. Leave the boring details to someone like Maka or Kid who like to talk about all that boring stuff. Psh.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Fine. So I'm from a place called Death City. It's in Nevada. Go to school at a place called Shibusen. It's a meister/weapon academy -- I'm a meister, by the way. My weapon's Tsubaki. Together, we're an unbeatable combo! If ya don't believe me, just try to take us on. I'll be more than happy to kick any of your asses! Hyaa~haaah--☆
That's about it. If ya want more details, you can ask Maka or Tsubaki. Oi, Tsubaki, I'm hungry now, make me something good, would ya?
[Third Person]
"GRAAAAH, I'm so bored!!" Black☆Star's hands fisted his turquoise hair in frustration, on the edge of tearing it out.
The first few weeks had been devoted to adjusting to the new place, talking to his friends from back home, and meeting new adoring fans. But nothing really felt like a challenge. He hadn't met anyone that seemed strong enough to take on, there hadn't been any attacks or anything, and what little he HAD taken on was easily cut down by him and Tsubaki. So that was why today, Black☆Star ventured off on his own...exploring this place in hopes to find a challenge worthy of the man who would surpass god. It landed him in a vast field, a field that seemingly had nothing.
Unless you counted the ugly scarecrows that hung on their posts.
Black☆Star walked up to one, peering in its dopey, straw face before annoyance creased his brows. He brought his foot upward, slamming it into the scarecrow's chest -- knocking it over. "Nothing. There's not a damn thing out here." There was a loud gurgle coming from his stomach, and Black☆Star glanced down at it before sighing. "Better get back, I guess..."
He turned on his heel, shoving his hands in his pockets and beginning his leisurely pace back the way he came. What he didn't notice was the shadow that rose up behind him or the pair of straw arms that now held a wooden post. He didn't notice it was moving closer until the post suddenly connected with his back and caused him to fly forward, coughing and sputtering on the dirt and grass he managed to inhale. Black☆Star shot a glance over his shoulder, catching sight of his opponent -- or should he say opponents considering all of the other scarecrows seemed to be shuffling their way over in a labored manner -- like something out of a horror film.
A dark grin twisted up on the corner of his mouth, "That's more like it."
[Why do you want to play this character in Somarium?] Because Duski is an evil enabler who enables. That and there's such a large Soul Eater cast and it'll be my first time playing against an actual Tsubaki. But even without those being factors, I like the thought of a dream setting!
[Which rule was your favorite and why?] No playercest -- lol do people actually do this? I've read single shot logs that are just an introspection, buuuuut writing with two of your own characters totally seems like a fanfic to me.
[Where did you hear about Somarium?] DUSKI.
