Nikau Mikaere



Continent: Oceania

Origin: Port Vila, Vanuatu

Gender: Male

Age: 17

Strengths: Nikau's sheer willpower, feel-good personality, and people-person skills are his biggest assets. He's a massive threat should you have to face him in a personality contest, and if it was your word vs his, he'd win every time.

Weaknesses: Nikau has little situational awareness. While he has plenty of self-awareness, he tends to behave to Occam's Razor, and just go to the simplest solution without thinking first. Nikau also has a lack of strength, although his reflexes could make up for that.

Motivation: Nikau wants to gain retribution for his actions that cost the life of his friend. He wants to be able to repay the family for what he had did, and he feels that the best way to do that is to either win, and repay them by doing what they wish for him to do with his favour, or, if he ends up dead, his life, the one that caused their loss, is gone as well.

Weapon: Mid-range blades

Personality
Nikau's generally a relatively calm, cool guy. He's a very collected man, able to keep his thoughts steady and not let himself get clouded. He has a massive appreciation for dark humour, as it's what helps him cope with what he did.

Backstory
Nikau was born in the islands of Vanuatu to a pair of Australian tourists visiting the island. He was given a full rite of passage of sorts by the local natives, and was named after the two nurses who birthed him.
