□ Name: Masaru Daimon
□ Series: Digimon (Savers)
□ Canon point: Post episode 41
□ Personality: “My Dad’s back is big and warm. When you’re a kid, you can’t out distance your father’s back. But I wanted to reach and get close to it! As close as I could! That’s why… I’ve always done my best!” In only a few sentences Masaru basically spells out most of the cause of his entire outlook on life. When his father left home to explore the Digital World when Masaru was 4 he told him that he was a grown man now, and he was responsible for his mother and baby sister. That simple declaration colors everything he did for the next 10 years of his life.
Masaru is, on the surface, a loud mouthed, hotheaded punk with no respect for others and nothing but a desire to cause as much trouble as possible. But while he can be loud and hotheaded, the rest couldn’t be further from the truth. In reality Masaru is a loyal, devoted young man… even if he doesn’t always go about it the right way. He does have an awful temper and can be very aggressive. But this is simply because he is a very emotionally open person. When Masaru is angry he’s outright enraged. When he’s happy he’s everyone’s friend. When he’s upset he’s a bawling screaming mess. He feels everything to the extreme and with complete honesty. His parents raised him to be honest with himself and others when it came to the important things, and it shows in his occasionally crass but very powerful sense of pride and honor. He can’t abide anyone going for the easy way out, or not acting like ‘a true man’, which really has nothing to do with masculinity and everything to do with doing what you know is right, no matter what the cost. He’s a man of action, not words, often ‘speaking’ through his fists when words take too long or can’t reach someone.
But even with the best intent, he’s not an easy person to get along with. He picks fights for fun (not out of a need to hurt people, but to compare his strength to theirs.), bickers with everyone around him and is overall an annoying teenage boy. He’s extremely competitive, and if defeated tends to sulk and brood like a spoiled brat. He’s not the best at planning by far, and doesn’t think ahead, though he’s not stupid. In fact he understands emotions very well, rallying others and encouraging his friends with his blunt but usually right observations.
Overall, Masaru is a family oriented person, though ‘family’ doesn’t necessary mean blood. Through out the series he ‘adopts’ quite a few people, especially Agumon and Ikuto, who he treats like little brothers… including bickering and yelling at them pretty often. Yoshino becomes like an Big Sister to him, and even Touma is almost a sibling-like friendly rival… most of the time. Masaru holds all his closest friends on the level of family, and will do anything for them… including bashing their heads if he thinks they need it. He takes his ‘family’s’ safety and happiness as his own personal responsibility, and while he’ll never be sweet and sugary towards them, god forbid anyone else try to hurt them. And because of this, he sees no greater sin then betrayal. If someone he trusted turned their back on him it would be almost impossible for Masaru to forgive them… and his rage would be horrible. During his canon he even makes a real honest attempt to kill someone who he thought had turned against him, screaming for their blood.
But perhaps Masaru’s most glaring and obvious trait is his often idiotic, maybe even suicidal inability to back down. He throws himself against challenges no one should be able to surpass… and does so any way. Part of it’s skill, perhaps. But mostly it’s pure blind determination. Masaru doesn’t understand ‘can not’ for the most part. If he falls, he just gets back up and does it again, even to the point of certain death. While this might be seen as a good trait… it can also lead to all sorts of trouble. But regardless, it’s really the core of who he is. Untamable and unstoppable
□ Age: 14
□ Gender: Male
□ Appearance: A little on the tall side for his age, muscular, shoulder length red-tinted brown hair that’s usually worn up in a half tail, green eyes. Dresses in red, whites and blacks, usually sleeveless or at least loose and easy to move in.
□ Abilities/Powers: Masaru has a power called Digisoul which is the expression of emotional/spiritual power in a crackling aura. For most people all it can do is evolve digimon, but for those that has especially power ones, such as Masaru, it can be used to enhance their natural physical strength. Masaru can do physical feats most can’t, and punch out monsters much bigger then his.
□ Personal Items: His set of clothing. His pendent and digivice.
