Nikko Alberich

             
 Alberich, Nikko

personality

On a first meeting, Nikko would seem to be one of the more sane people in the school, which would be completely wrong. As he is not entirely insane, he does have his problems of his own. A large part of his personality is based off his gambling addiction. Often during gambling, he looses all the distractions going around him, just to focus on the game. He is fairly good at most betting since he's been doing it for so long, but when he looses he can be prone to outbursts. It is not extremely good if one is near him when an episode happens. Even if he's not the strongest, he will become a lot more violent and loose most sense of reason. It's almost impossible to calm him down and it's best to just let it pass.

Nikko doesn't have many friends because of his personality and personally he doesn't think he needs them. After his childhood friend died, his perspective of life changed to a point where he trusts few people if not no one. He prefers to lock everything inside of him and let it weigh heavily in his heart. While this might be how he feels, he is able to keep up a conversation with people as long as they don't get too friendly with him. His demeanor is rather cold and he prefers to be alone. 

There are few likable traits about him. Besides gambling, he has an interest in doing pranks. Most of these, however, can be fairly hurtful as he hopes to lower someone's mood or self esteem. Nikko is good at strategizing and almost has a photographic memory that has developed through usage. 

Breaking his shell has never been done before, but if someone manages to, they would find a confused child. Since the accident happened early on, Nikko's emotions didn't fully develop and were rather suppressed in his mind. Besides a friend, acquiring a lover is almost impossible for him.

APpearance

Nikko stands at a fairly short height for a male and he also has a more feminine build  then most. His diet isn't the greatest as it consists mostly of junk food and candy, but because of his fast metabolism, he doesn't gain a pound. His skin is almost a porcelain color with little flaws. Though because of this his skin burns easily and if it is rather sunny then he will be seen with an umbrella. Nikko's has a lovely sky blue eye color that often holds a mischievous gaze. His hair color is a lavender, which looks slightly silvery in the right lighting. The style is rather short, going just to his mid neck where it is straight, but flairs out slightly as it gets closer to the bottom. He also has longer stands of hair that are usually tied in two low pigtails, however he sometimes chooses to put them up in elegant braids held in with pins. 

His clothing normally represents his status as he likes frills and elegance. He's not ashamed to wear dresses at all as it actually goes with his figure very well. The dresses are more old fashioned, with the large skirt and tighter bodice. He will wear mens clothing too as it is still a bit old fashioned mores so then not. However after joining 552 he learned that during school it might be a good idea to dress a bit more casually. He might wear a dress shirt with a pair of jeans or khakis. His color scheme is a mix of light grays and white while the more vibrant colors are of purple and blue.

fighting style

While he lived in Britain as a younger child, he took a variety of self defense lessons. These included fencing, judo, and of course cricket. From these lessons he's learned how to fight without weapons, or with a sword or bat. However he is not the strongest out there, but he is fairly smart, so his fighting style relies on trickery and outsmarting the opponent. He currently still practices his different hobbies, always striving to get better.

biography

Born into a pretty wealthy family, in Britain, Nikko had an easy childhood so it would seem. Despite his parents having little time for him, he had a caretaker that was always very nice to him. She also had a son who was just a year older and they would become close friends as they progressed through life.

Nothing was extremely unordinary. Apart from the status of the family, he lived like anyone else would. Sadly this would not last as Nikko grew up he continued to be in good spirits and stay in touch with his childhood friend. On a visit to the city, Nikko wasn't watching where he was going. A truck would come down a hill, uncontrollably since the break was missing, though luckily his friend pushed him out of the way, saving his life. They would go to the emergency room as they tried to save the boy. It was too late, but with his last breath he would say something to Nikko. "I shouldn't have risked my life for you."

Years passed and Nikko took those words to heart. He quickly fell in depression as he was confused to why his friend had doubts about saving him. He would never find an answer though as he was in the after life. There would be therapy sessions which were just a waste of money. Nikko soon started to use this money to go to casinos and gamble. As he started to continue the activity, he would forget about the pain he was in and shut himself away from reality.

Time went on and soon his gambling streak became a problem. He would steal money from his parents just to get away from all the pain, though as they quickly found out, he would turn on them. He used his sadness to fuel his anger and could often become violent. Without a way to help their son, they just let him do what he wanted in hopes that someone would be able to change him.

Then Nikko made a grave error. He was getting very skilled at reading people and also calculating probability, since he had a fairly good memory. However, this lead to people think he was cheating and soon he was confronted. It was unknown what happened eactly, but when the police showed up, they found a teenager covered in blood, with two dead upper class men by his side. This made his parents realize he would need reform in a way they couldn't directly give. 

Taking a plane to America Nikko was soon enrolled into PHS 552. While he still has his problems, his parents who loved him dearly hoped this school might be able to change him for the better. As he is currently a senior he is prone to ignoring the rules and doing what he pleases. He doesn't care much about punishment, as it is mostly just empty threats, but that was before coming to school.
