PERSONALITY ■
- FOCUSED & DEVOTED - the man is focused, in which he heavily pours into the residents of his guild and his allies as well. he is also very loving and devoted to his people, going as far as to help a certain family fix their destroyed restaurant to helping an old woman cross the street. in this world, he could be the only one that is well-orientated with his own people besides a select few, despite these times of death and war. his focus is centered in his loyalty; in which he concentrates on his allegiances and other subjects with very few distractions coming in here and there.
- INTELLIGENT & DECISIVE - with leadership comes knowledge; to be able to put things to work quickly - to make decisions swiftly and with prompt intelligence, this is one of his most adored qualities, and the central influence upon his maturity and people. while he was a child, he didn't uphold intelligence and decisiveness as an important quality of his personality, but as he grew older, he slowly started to notice that people were not listening to him and promptly changed himself. today, he is found reading books upon books in his spare time, and going over strategies that utilize his intelligence to it's full potential - making the land of snow a place to be. he still finds places in this part of his persona that need fixing, as he believes there's flaws in everything no matter how perfect, flawless, unchangeable, unmatched, etc; it seems.
- COURAGEOUS & STRAIGHT FORWARD - one can go without saying that their leader is indeed courageous, and says things openly; no matter how blunt it seems. it may be viewed as a negative aspect, but calico hates hiding certain parts of himself, especially when the times are dire. he stomps into an onslaught of shinobi without showing fear, pouring morale into his people, and he'll defend one of his people even if it's over something petty. he has became and ideal figure for the residents of the land of snow; not just because of his bravery, but because he speaks his mind. the man isn't afraid to say anything and he doesn't hesitate to, knowing well that hiding one's self can lead to something much more dangerous.
- INDEPENDENT & OBSERVANT - while the people rely on him for many things such as protection and guidance, he is independent himself. he may rely on a few people when the times come, but it doesn't mean that he becomes heavily dependent on him. first, he'll observe their actions - watch if they are trustworthy, then make a decision if he should continue to rely or not. while not needing others' assistance because he can handle most things on his own, he will be very quick to notice things that are changing - if he's wavering in faith, or that his independence is getting out of control; meaning, he is becoming distant from his people.
- RESPECTFUL & LEVELHEADED - the part of being a leader is showing respect to your subordinates and anyone else - even complete strangers that are potential enemies. he holds a deep admiration for any person that he comes across, no matter how weak they may seem, he believes that what they are striving for shows that they have the right to get his respect. he also judges people well, and doesn't break down into ragemode a heap of madness when someone thinks ill will of him. heck, even if he knows that someone's trying to assassinate him, he'll still show them respect, in hopes that they will stop. like all things in this world, here's a time when he won't be as highly calm as he currently is.
- STUBBORN & UNPREDICTABLE - a human being has a certain amount of themselves that are hardheaded to a certain aspect, even if it's an ounce or 0.1 percent, it's still there somewhere. when he makes a decision, he plans to stick with it, and assumes that no one would object, attempt, or suggest to change it. as much as he hates saying the word 'no' to his own people, his gut and mind tell him to, and he follows it. besides this, there's his tendency to switch his mind randomly, often brewing up confusion amongst people. he behaves in a way that his enemies cannot predict - even his battle style is entirely based upon doing random movements that the enemy does not know about, yet he himself knows. his randomness can lead to negative things - such as an accidental uproar and worse, a huge happening all blamed on him.
- MANIPULATIVE & MALICIOUS - despite being caring and such with his people, there are times that he has to influence them for his own needs - such as advancing a campaign for instance. however, his way of manipulating others leans more towards the negative, as he will achieve even the littlest of things through other people, when he can do it with his own skill. furthermore, if he feels that someone is catching on, he turns a 180 degree turn; showing signs that he's intending to do harm if they keep on suspecting what he's doing with them. towards enemies, he's seen in a constant mood of maliciousness, which often leads to recklessness. without knowing it, ichienjiru can be manipulating one of his very best friends and lead them to their own death.. but that's just a possibility, or is it?
- HOSTILE & SELFISH - being hostile can have it's perks, but he isn't willing to be friendly with enemies or strangers, no matter what. it takes a long time for him to put his trust in them, and lessen his paranoid mind-set that they are automatically a potential enemy. in truth, the man is more concerned about his well being than his people, but to an extent. when joining up with a group, he sees if their goal coincides with his own - such as defeating a huge enemy, going to a foreign land, etc. his hostility is considered to be selfish even by his own people - he is found being unfriendly to enemies and strangers only for the benefit of them going away so he can be at ease.
- JEALOUS & SARCASTIC - whenever someone achieves something higher than him, or holds an object that he yearns for, he starts to become envious and slowly goes on the path of wanting it. when he was a teenager around the ages of 14 - 17, he was envious of everyone around him; only because they were achieving things much higher than he was. up to this day. besides this, he can be extremely sarcastic and often say words that wound others - even if he doesn't mean it.
- SARDONIC & INQUISITIVE - whenever he smiles, he's being sardonic. his words are coated with a fake mask of sincerity when one fails, but behind it lies the true face of his words; he is actually mocking them. oh no - don't get the wrong idea. don't assume that his sense of humor is not sardonic, because it is: the man lacks a certain sense of humor; that sense being "good." his humor is lacking in quality and light, everything that typically lightens up a person's mood. how he sees his sense of humor is irony - one thing might happen, but he will say the opposite, often in a disdainful way. driving away from this subject ¡ª curiosity can be a good thing, but when one gets too interested in a certain thing, it can lead to their down fall. calico is curious to harrowing extremes; equivalent to a child or a baby cat/dog that just emerged into the world. he'll go as far as into the enemy's lair to learn something that got his mind interested. this has lead him to several near-death situations, and there's no signs of him changing his curiosity.

ABILITIES ■
- Eternal Dance - An ability that uses Valentine's unorthodox gunner style. First, unholstering Emna and Tenshi, he unloads all seven of Emna's rounds, and one of Tenshi's clips, all fired artistically at the foe(s). Then he will flip Emna, adding a special bullet shells that produces fire on the moment on impact, holding it normally then fire. When he finish, it will the appearance that it's small hell on earth.
- Daitoryu - Is a form of jujutsu emphasizes an early neutralization of an attack. Like other forms of jujutsu, it emphasizes throwing techniques and joint manipulations to effectively control, subdue, or injure an attacker. Of particular importance is the timing of a defensive technique to either blend or neutralize an incoming attack's effectiveness and use the force of the attacker's movement against them. Daito-ryu is characterized by ample use of atemi, or the striking of vital areas, in order to set up jointlocking or throwing tactics. The art's striking methods employ the swinging of the outstretched arms to create power and to hit with the fists at deceptive angles, as may be observed in techniques such as the atemi that sets up gyaku ude-dori (reverse elbow lock). Valentine regarded one of the unique characteristics of the art to be its preference for controlling a downed attacker's joints with one's knee in order to leave one's hands free to access one's weapons or to deal with the threat of other oncoming attackers.
