Character Information
General
Canon Source: Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
Canon Format: Anime
Character's Name: Kamina
Character's Age: 17
Conditional: If your character is 13 years of age or under, please clarify how they will be played. N/A
What form will your character's NV take? He's rather technologically impaired as it is (the only reason he can pilot is Gunman is because of his spirit, basically, and has no real technique), doubled with the fact that he can't read...it's a difficult thing for him to get a grasp on! If it's possible, I'd like to turn his glasses into his NV, which he can stumble through figuring out. (This is mainly because it's something he actually WOULDN'T just leave behind.) They would respond to voice commands, which would help his inability to read, and though it has text functions, he may get caught up between that and video.
Abilities
Character's Canon Abilities: FIGHTING SPIRIT! Actually, the whole Spiral powers are generally something inhabited by all of mankind, so Kamina's "abilities" lend to really being able to see the positive in everything and inspiring everyone around him. And having ridiculously good luck for all the times he should have seriously hurt himself in his antics.
Conditional: If your character has no superhuman canon abilities, what dormant ability will you give them? In that sense, I would like to give him the power of INSPIRATION AND LUCK to his companions. Meaning, that his "power" doesn't actually do anything for himself, but it can boost the effectiveness of the abilities of his teammates.
Weapons: As GURREN LAGANN is much too large to bring to Siren's Pull, and we lack a Simon, Kamina will be coming with the nodachi he stole from the Village Chief. It's a large, two-handed samurai sword that he somehow wields with seemingly no practice in the past. He is just that full of manly spirit.
History/Personality/Plans/etc.
Character History: Wiki
Point in Canon: Episode 8, the morning before his EPIC BATTLEand untimely demise
Character Personality: Young and brash, Kamina is an enigmatic man who never seems to do anything quietly. He is rebellious and uninhibited, never hesitating to speak his mind whether it is appropriate or not. He lacks proper manners, but upholds his own code of honor. Once you have his loyalty, you have it indefinitely, and he is never short of offering support to his comrades. In fact, he may be a little too supportive to the point he can be downright scary and forcing people to reach what he believes to be their potential. Dramatic motivational speeches are a must, and though sometimes a little corny, he means every word he says. Honest to a fault, Kamina lives by beat of his own drum and sees life as something you have to live in the moment rather than idle away doing nothing.
Though he is easy to write off as arrogant, and he his filled to the brim with confidence, his egotistical nature is not what it seems. He believes in the abilities of those he trusts and therefore is determined to stay strong for their sake as well. He gives credit where credit is due, noting that Simon saves his ass on several occasions, if not all the time. "Look before you leap" is not a phrase that clicks with him, for Kamina tends to run into things head first, sometimes with a plan, sometimes without. Whether it be Simon or just luck, until his last battle, things always seemed to somehow work out for the better.
That is not to say he is not confident in his own abilities, however. There has to be a reason he goes running at something that should kill him with a nudge and challenge it with only a sword, after all. He strives to reach for the stars, quite literally, after harboring some regret of not traveling with his father when he was young. Kamina is steadfast in his goals and appears to surmount any obstacle presented to him, half the time tackling it with little common sense. Never the less, he has become an inspiration to his comrades and to humans across the surface, even after his death.
Kamina has a sometimes fantastical concept of what is considered manly and appropriate for men, sometimes putting down the female members of his crew. That is not to say he does not appreciate women, however, as on first meeting Yoko he was more than happy to throw a few passes her way, which were subsequently shut down. He does greatly seem to enjoy the company of women in a classic young man fashion, even if they do not understand his will to never run away.
Character Plans: He's Kamina. He will think the city is BIG AND SUPER AWESOME and OH LOOK AT THAT and the nights? FIGHTING AND ACTION AND THIS IS SO COOL! But it will really start to bother him after a while that they're not allowed to leave--people should be FREE! A virtual roof is still a roof! Invisible wings are still clipped! The Great Gurren Brigade does not sit idly and wait for permission! He will KICK REASON TO THE CURB AND ATTAIN THE IMPOSSIBLE OF BREAKING FREE OF SIREN'S PULL AND THE HORRORS THAT CANADA CONTAINS!
Or just try a lot and never quite figure it out, and somehow not dying in the process. (For a while, anyway.)
So basically being inspirational, eating a lot, and riding freaky creatures of the night. Yep.
Appearance/PB: OH KAMINA-SAMA!
