CHARACTER PROFILE
Name: Tonkatsu Hyūga
Age: 15
Country of Birth: Japan
Country of Residence: Japan
Languages Spoken: Japanese, English
Personality:
Almost all the time, Katsu is a loud-mouthed, stubborn, fiery individual. His natural state seems to be at a 'peak' of anger. Meaning to say, it won't be hard for him to reach, or break his limited patience. This is especially prevalent when it comes to insults or even slightly negative comments about his name or mother. There are a lot of instances when he can think and act rationally, but when it pertains to those latter two— he will unleash his complete, raw fury upon the poor soul that uttered such words, usually in the form of fists.
However, although he may be all this, Katsu still retains his humanitarian side beneath all his tough talk. He simply prefers not to show it to anyone, the only exception being his mother and one or two others. This claim can be further backed by his secret love for animals. Which, again, he will not show to anybody. He is well aware of his bad reputation, but he prefers it to stay that way.
To put it shortly: Tonkatsu Hyūga is an angel in devil's clothing. Except, he is still not beyond beating the life out of someone, if he feels like it.
Quirks:
• Very forgetful. He will often do something and forget why he even did it in the first place.
• He has two nicknames he prefers to go by: either Katsu, usually to his Japanese friends, or Tony; to his English-speaking friends.
• When unloading a barrage of attacks, his Stand's battlecry is "TORA": generally repeated numerous times to great affect.
History:
Katsu grew up in a small, dirty apartment with his mother— which he still lives in to present day. As far as he can remember, he never had a father. There weren't any pictures of the man anywhere in his house, not even a wedding photo of him and his mom. So it had been just him and his single mother.
Because of the hardships of raising a child alone, it was only natural that their family was poor. Katsu's mom had to settle for living in a shoddy neighbourhood and apartment, and even work multiple jobs just to pay for both their living expenses. While Katsu had been a child back then, he still wasn't completely stupid. He could tell how tired all this made his mother. But even so, when he would ask her things like, "Would it be better if I was just not born?", his mom would always smile, bring him close and tell him; "Don't be silly, Katsu. You're the one that makes everything I do worth it". Because of this, he truly cherished and respected his mother.
He would even get angry if people pitied him and his family. He felt as if they were looking down on him, without understanding a thing about how hard his mom worked. It almost felt demeaning to him. So, he would lash out against those people. He would get angry. This is what later caused his neighbours and peers to drift away from his family. Parents thought Katsu would be a bad influence to their kids, so he didn't have too many friends growing up.
As the years passed, Katsu became older and older— as did his mom. And, due to all the stress and overworking she had done over the years; her health deteriorated. She contracted an illness that just wouldn't seem to go away. In her weakened state, she was forced to be bedridden with most of her time. When this occurred, she could no longer work, either. This caused Katsu to eventually withdraw from his schooling and find work, instead. However, his mother still wished for him to be able to finish school and get a good job. Taking the middle stance, Katsu did both. Of course, he couldn't truly pick both sides. Deeming his mother more important than his education, he leaned more towards working. Naturally, his schoolwork suffered greatly from it. But he never told his mother that. He knew it would break her heart, knowing what he did. In order to keep from hurting the people he loved, Katsu kept this secret to himself.
He worked at a pet store he and his mother used to go to. Because of their lack of money, they could never afford a pet. To compensate, his mother took him to visit the store whenever they had free time— and Katsu was completely satisfied with it. Seeing as he had past ties to the place, Katsu thought it fitting to get a job there. And with the manager knowing him since he was a child, the position was easily given away to him. This is what brings us to present day. Ever since these series of events took place, Katsu's role and attitude had gradually been sculpted to the way they are now.
Notable Skills:
• Athletic & Physically strong
• Intimidating
Notable Weaknesses:
• Quick Temper
• Extremely Stubborn
Important Items:
A silver chain that hangs from his waist and around to the back of his leg. He also keeps an old family photo of him and his mother in his wallet.
Appearance:
Physique
Katsu is a male of average height, only being at about 5'8" (172 centimetres). As he is athletic, his body is more muscular than average, overall. His skin is lightly coloured, with some body parts being slightly tanner than others— due to more exposure to sunlight.
Facial Features & Detail
He has a rounded face, with a squared jaw ending it off at the bottom. His cheekbones, while noticeable, are not jutting or deep. Katsu's expression seems to be in a natural scowl, most times. Because of this, he may appear to look older than he actually is. Oddly enough, though; his eyes aren't narrow as one would expect from someone who has a permanent mean-mug. Rather, his eyes are relatively big, when compared to his peers. The irises within them are a fierce, hazel-brown— to compliment his hot-headed nature.
Hair
Katsu's hair is an ashy-blonde colour—or— at least one side of it is. His hairstyle is what one would classify as 'punk'. He has the left side of his head shaved and trimmed extremely short, while the other side is grown with long bangs at his side and down his forehead. As stated previously, one side of his hair is an ash-blonde. This is because his hair is dyed to is colour. Naturally, his hair colour is a simple, jet black— and it shows on the shaven part of his head. The right side of his hair is blonde, while the left remains black.
Clothing
Katsu's general, everyday attire consists of a zipped-open school jacket with an extended collar and rolled-up ends. For pants, he doesn't even follow the school uniform code. Rather than that, he simply wears dark, denim jeans with a silver chain wrapped around his left leg from his waist. As for shoes, he prefers to wear sneakers at all times, rather than dress shoes.
The most prominent features of his clothing, however, are his shirts. On his torso, he usually wears one of two t-shirts. Either he wears a shirt with the the text "BA— D BOY" on it. Or, he wears a shirt with dark, crimson text that displays "RENEGADE 4 LIFE". Though, regardless of what shirt he's wearing, he will most often tuck it into his pants.

STAND PROFILE
Name: Sleepwalking
Ability:
Vision Roulette
With every connecting attack—usually in the form of punches— Sleepwalking changes the perspective of the contacted person. The affected person's vision will swap with a random object within 20 metres of the Stand's location. For example, if they had their perspective swapped with a rock, they would see through that rock's vision— no longer being able to see through their own eyes. Furthermore, if one is hit repeatedly by Sleepwalking, their perspective will continuously swap with each consecutive attack.
Type: Close-Range Power Type
Power: A
Speed: B
Range: B
Durability: C
Precision: E
Learning: D
Appearance:
Like Katsu, Sleepwalking is also an intimidating sight to look at. It takes on the appearance of a humanoid male— with a completely shining, gold body. It has robotic-bug eyes with blue slits for pupils. Further, the Stand looks to have no mouth— causing many to wonder where it emits its voice and sound from. The sides of its face are a darker yellow than the rest of their body, being shaded with vertical lines. As well, on each side are two ear-like, mechanical protrusions that also seem to have the same blue glow its eyes have. From the waist down, it appears to have a white sash holding together loose, karate gi leggings. Resting atop Sleepwalking's head is most probably the most striking appearance quirk it has. Over its head are spiky, gravity-defying strands of hair— with a few golden bangs covering its forehead.
