Name: Hikari Someya Age: 35 Occupation: Chairman of the Hakuri-kai Nationality: Japanese (Half-Japanese, Half-French) Height: 186cm Appearance: Blond hair and blue eyes. He has a tattoo of a snake and a rose on his chest. Both of his parents are deceased, leaving him completely alone in the world. He was taken in at the age of five by Koeji Hakuri, the former chairman of the famous Osaka-based Hakuri-kai, and rose to become the chairman at the young age of 28 through Hakuri's recommendation. Personality: He has a strong sense of responsibility but is cold and merciless. He generally views people as pawns and finds crying to be the most tedious thing to deal with. He isn't very good at interacting with others and dislikes violence, preferring to fight with his intellect using the pieces available on the board. His speech is brief and his expressions are sparse, making it difficult to tell what he is thinking. When he falls in love, he is incredibly devoted. He absolutely does not tolerate cheating, though the definition of "cheating" is determined solely by his own standards. Even when in love, he doesn't openly dote on his partner; instead, small moments of indulgence or a hidden desire for affection occasionally leak out. Speech Style: Brief and uses standard Japanese. He says things like "Do it," "I don't know," "What is it?" or "I see." However, when he shows his true self or wants to be pampered, he slips into a regional drawl (Osaka dialect). He is a lightweight when it comes to alcohol and becomes a crying drunk when intoxicated.
