Other Characters Played: None.
Preferred Apartment: Not a preferred apartment as such, but it would be nice if he was roomed together with his castmate (who is also apping this round).
Character Name: Kurogane
Canon: Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles
Canon Point: Chapter 47, right when he's transported from Outo.
Background/History: Wikia over here!
Personality: "Don't look down. If you are a man who has a job to do you always have to look ahead."
Kurogane is generally rather grumpy and it’s rare to see him smile, at least outside of battle. For most of his life his sole purpose has been to become stronger and he is willing to do almost everything in order to achieve this. While this has had the result of Kurogane not really caring who he fights or in what shape his opponent might be afterwards the need itself stems from a desire to be able to protect the people he cares about. Things have just gotten a bit muddled on the way.
He has a very short temper, and is especially enraged by Fai and Mokona’s teasing. When angered he is usually very quick to take to some kind of action, either by yelling or by chasing the object of his annoyance around with his sword while threatening them with bodily harm. It should be noted that he never seems to actually do anything to harm them, though. And there's a distinct difference between this kind of short temper and when he actually seriously gets angry. That is a more calm but completely murderous kind of anger and usually ends with someone getting seriously hurt.
He cares much more about people than he at first realizes. In the beginning of his travels he very clearly states that he will have nothing to do with Syaoran’s mission, since it has nothing to do with him. He will just just stick around until he has reached his own world; however, it doesn’t take him very long to begin changing his mind. And while he at first claims that this is only because that will allow him to reach his goal it doesn’t take very long before he becomes very personally invested in the wellfare of his travel companions. And though bristling at any references to him being the children's "daddy", usually from Mokona or Fai, he has no real problem with filling the role in action, if not in words. At this point in time this is still an ongoing process.
But that is one of very few blind spots, other than that he is extraordinary honest, and that includes himself. He’s not one to shy away from the truth, he meets it head on and if it’s not to his liking he’ll beat the shit out of it until it is. He’s also very good at reading people. Fai has spent most of his life building up a perfect mask, and still he sees through it in a world to two. And this is not only limited to Fai but seemingly anyone he decides to actually focus on.
He doesn’t have much patience and especially not with unnecessary things like politeness. He would do anything to protect his princess Tomoyo - even lay down his own life, which is not something he does lightly - but that doesn’t mean that he will polite to her. He rarely calls anyone by name but while he tends to use titles or epithets instead it’s really not in a polite kind of way. At all.
As a side note it should be pointed out thought that not all of it is as impolite as it sounds. Because even when he begins to care about people he does not start calling them by name. But then his father used to call him “kid” just like he calls Syaoran, and while he had no intention to take on the father role in the beginning you can definitely read it in later on.
He has a very straightforward and simple view of life. There are enemies and... well... not enemies. He’s a great believer in the truth and in doing what you set out to do and absolutely hates liars and weaklings. Especially if he knows that they could be more than they’re settling for.
If he commits to something there is nothing that can stop him from doing it. And this goes for most things in his life. He’s extremely, and in some cases even fanatically, loyal to the people he decides to commit to. But again, this does not mean that he will listen to them or do what they want. He will do what he thinks it’s best for them no matter what they say or think about it.
Even when he’s loosened up he tends to be rather aloof and aggressive. He will not get involved in other people’s problems unless he has reason to, and if there's a chance of a fight, he'll probably take it. Nothing will stop him enjoying the heat of battle. He also tends to be very arrogant about his abilities, and there is no doubt in his mind that he will be able to beat any opponent he takes on.
And he really does love his battle. It’s almost the only time you see him have any sort of expression other than a scowl. When he’s fighting, and especially if the fight is ‘good’, there’s a wide grin on his face and if there is too much peace and quiet during the travels he grows visibly tetchy and even more easily annoyed than usual.
He’s not very good at being fussed at and he tends to ignore his own pain and injuries unless they are actually life-threatening.
Abilities/Powers: He's a really good sword fighter, and even when accounting for magic there are very few people in his canon that can match him. He also has some kind of spiritual power that he uses when he fights, since most people can't level entire buildings with one swing of their sword, no matter how skilled they are. He even has special, named, techniques where he specifically uses this power.
He can sense auras, both of living things and of inanimate object, and can also differentiate auras of different people.
He's very good at reading people, when he bothers to try, and can see through his companions' lies and masks with disturbing ease.
He is also able to handle pain like nothing else. Basically he can get stabbed through the stomach with a giant icicle and still be able to cut off his own arm without even flinching at the pain.
Items/Weapons: His sword; 'Souhi' and the clothes he's wearing, that's all.

Sample Entry Two:
So this world wasn't his home either, and without that damn pork bun there was no way for them to move on to the next one. At least not until whoever, or whatever, had brought them here decided to bring them back to the world they'd come from. He didn't like it, that there was someone or something out there with the power to keep him here against his will. There were already too many people in his life with the power to send him weird places against his will as it was. It was frustrating as well, having an enemy he couldn't fight.
Of course it could be worse, as worlds go he supposes this wasn't one of the worst. Not saying that things couldn't be better but at least there were things for him to do here while they waited to be sent back. At least there were things he could fight. He grinned as he felt rather than saw the creatures advancing on him, brandishing his sword and preparing for battle.
"Come on!" He called out. "Let's see what you're made of."
