raab 0 Posted July 3, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Profile » Username: «[R]aab». » Real name: Watanabe, [T]etsuo » Age: [T] 2[2] || [R] 1[7] » Gender: [T||R] [M]ale » Height: [T] 6' [3]" || [R] 5' [10]" » About: Man-child extraordinaire Tetsuo Watanabe is a simple, fun-loving individual who hasn't quite broken his long-standing marriage to virtual entertainment. With the release of the virtual-reality hardware dubbed NerveGear and the long-anticipated MMORPG Sword Art Online, Tetsuo found himself hankering for a taste of the cutting-edge. Having recently completed an extended stay at University, Tetsuo has found himself with quite a bit of free time, time enough to include SAO in his daily routine. This being the first virtual-reality-based game Tetsuo has ever encountered, the eager young gamer decided to take a more passive role in his gaming experience, choosing to "roll", as it were, as an alchemist. Understanding the dangerous nature of the game, Tetsuo felt it best to learn the base mechanics of the NerveGear before venturing out of Floor 1. After bout a week of hardcore gaming, Tetsuo found the NerveGear controls to be second-nature, leaving the "newbie" brimming with an amount of warranted confidence. It was in this moment of ultra-pride that Tetsuo decided that he was going to take his career in SAO to the next level: acquiring armed-combat skills. Having spent a good amount of time honing his alchemic knowledge, Tetsuo figured he would earn gold enough to pay for new equipment and perhaps even combat tutoring. Either way, Tetsuo, or «Raab», as his few online "friends" know him, was going to find players willing to party up and brave the wilderness of SAO with a half-incompetent rookie player. Tetsuo's avatar, Raab, remains in the "Town of Beginnings" waiting for another player to place their stake in him. The wait for a party has only further worsened Tetsuo's lust for adventure in this new world that only recently opened up before him. Who's to say what kind of grand exploits he might accomplish...or would it just be another video game? » Appearance: » Virtues: . ConfidentTetsuo has a very strong sense of himself and it shows in his obscene capacity for confidence even in the most grim of situations. As a personal belief, Tetsuo finds that anyone is capable of achieving any goal with the right amount of resources and dedication. As a way of gaining an amount of self-respect, the young gamer attempts to spread this kind of thinking to other people and players he meets. . LoyalTetsuo finds loyalty to be an extremely coveted virtue, even in situations where the perpetuation of loyalty to a particular party might be harmful to oneself. This makes Raab the player an extremely valuable asset to any party; more often than not, Raab will find himself risking himself for the benefit of his party. Although this is a dangerous method of gameplay, Tetsuo believes that he can garner respect with ease and at a faster rate with this kind of play-style. . DeterminedTetsuo rarely backs down from a challenge, and should he fail, the sting of defeat serves only to spur the hungry gamer to achieve greater heights. As a person and player, Tetsuo devotes 100% of his effort and attention to the game during play. In addition to this, negative attitudes from other players rarely phase the stalwart adventurer. » Flaws: . SelfishOne negative outcome birthed from Tetsuo's rampant confidence and determination is a deep-seated sense of entitlement that, at times, overcomes his almost profound sense of loyalty. Tetsuo understands that in the end, everyone is out for themselves. The best he can do is limit that selfishness to the point that the impact of his courageous deeds outweigh the ramifications of his more selfish acts. . StubbornWhile Tetsuo attempts to maintain a generally-open world-view, he is not easily convinced and more often than not will incite arguments over the most trivial of circumstances. This labels Tetsuo as something of a "hot-head", though that period is usually short-lived and rarely un-remedied. Players who can't accept Tetsuo's knack for being a hard-head would not do well in the same party. . Manipulative One might say that Tetsuo's realist sensibilities come into play through gaming, many of which cater to the manipulation of other players to achieve personal goals. While this manipulation never actively serves to physically or mentally damage his party members, Tetsuo's play style maintains an "only what's best for me" attitude; while Tetsuo professes unwavering loyalty to the party, one might find the user Raab bouncing between many parties, each offering their own particular benefit towards Tetsuo's cause.
