Appearance
General:
In general, Ike shows attractiveness. He doesn't find it very hard to get girls or allies. However, learning from middle school, if Ike shows too much cockiness and abuses his charm, the lovers will easily turn into haters of jealousy. With just his looks, Ike can create chaos or peace.


Face: 
Ike has a young, very attractive, male face that expresses determination, yet shows a sense of mystery that expresses no particular feeling until he shows a gesture like smiling or frowning. Even then could be a mystery to some. It's the way Ike likes it. Ike however, is very attractive and pulls off a "I'd rather act than talk" face. No one really knows what he's exactly thinking about.

Body:
Ike not only shows various yet mysterious emotions, but the mystery also shows on his body too. So no one can really guess his feelings from his body language either. Ike, however, physically has a very fit and strong body. He's rather on the slender side with somewhat long legs. He's very flexible and doesn't really break anything in his body.

Attire:
Ike's attire is varied. There's no actual set outfit he wears. However, he does wear more hip hop or casual items then any other style. Therefore, you'll usually see him in comfortable, yet neat clothing.

Personality


Overall: 
Pre-Riot:
Ike was a loner, a wallflower, a shrinking violet, a no-friend, etc. However, Ike chose to attend school alone. Because he chose to live in the lonely life, Ike was always picked on and beaten. He believed that it would really build strength and teach him reality. Although he presents himself to be mysterious, Ike secretly suffers from depression and loneliness, which is the main reason why he doesn't speak much. He hid from anyone believing that any wrong movement, even subtle ones, could cost Ike's life to be in danger. He'd rather act than use words to communicate with others. Ike made his emotions somewhat clear and somewhat hidden for others to fill in the blank for him. His closest friends (if he even gets friends) were the ones who bonded even closer with him. He would talk more as he bonds with the other person. However, he would be usually silent in general and let his actions do the work.

Riot:
Ike is a reserved teenager who used to choose a loner life to keep away and build character... until he met Soran Yuy. Ike saw Soran as a role model, best friend, and almost a brother too. Ike realizes that he doesn't have to excluded himself from life just to get stronger. He finds that friends are a way to get through life very easily. Because of Soran, he knew what a friend was and wasn't. Ike had been changed so that he could find out and analyze problems easily. He is more stable than what he was before, however, he still suffers from the past very harshly. He keeps it to himself so that no one would realize the problem he is having. He tries hard to keep Soran and his allies from trouble when they get into it. In conclusion, Ike has opened his arms a bit more than the amount he has in the past.

Love/Relationships:
Ike hardly trusts anyone. But if he does, he builds very close bonds with others. You could mostly categorize Ike as a "Tsundere-Type" too. Ike is either very "cold" or very friendly towards his friends. If there is someone he likes, he doesn't really show it towards affection directly. He'll usually treat her like she's a ditz or something, calling her stupid or acting like he needs to do everything for her. Despite his personality towards others originally like this, Ike really cares for his closer friends (if he ever has friends) and is rather sweet. He will be nicer to the other when in private and show a bit more affection. Otherwise, around people, he will be a bit of an ass and act as if he needs no one.

Fighting Style:
Ike is a musician who focuses on mainly dancing and rapping. Therefore, he likes to use his dance moves and incorporate them into his fighting style. Ike is the one where once he's in the flow, he'll go at it for days. However, once his flow breaks, Ike loses his focus points and doesn't know where exactly to hit. 

Background


History: 
Ike's father was a world-known performer and Ike's mother was a beautiful housewife. Ike's father however, disappeared one day without warning. Ike's mother suffered from depression afterwards and then died of overdose. All Ike had was a friend of his parents whom he later lived with. Her name was Tiffany and she was a teacher who had to work at NYC. Therefore, Ike decided to move in with her but stayed at a different school during his middle school years. However, Ike used his looks to try and break a relationship between a girl and a guy. Because of this, a huge fight broke out between half of the school. No one exactly knew who started it except Ike himself because no one really blamed Ike for all of it. Ike told Tiffany all of this. Therefore, Ike ended up stepping into the 552 world alone and cold since she believed that Ike might need a stronger build in his character and physical because she saw that Ike had potential in him and that he just needs a little push.
