Thank you so much for having me.  ; u ;

Anyways! Yet another application for a cool-looking group that's just starting up! The concept's really neat, and I hope the group gets more hype because it's too awesome an idea just to let die- ; u ;
I hope that I can get in, and I'm sorry if anything sounds especially....odd? I've never had a character before like Faris here, so it's a whole new adventure for me. //OTL

P R O F I L E
Name: Reeves, Faris
Nicknames: TBA

Age: 21
Gender: Male
Nationality: English/Chinese
Birthday: January 4th (Capricorn)
Height/Weight: 5'10 ft || 156 lbs

Occupation: Restaurant Chef
Organization/Position: Knights || Sword Member
Weapon of Choice:
(Main) Heavy Chain- Approximately four feet in length, Faris skillfully and gracefully maneuvers this chain to hit and ensnare his opponents. Although he prefers to keep the chain wrapped around his hands, he has alternative attachments on his body (one on each wristband, and two on his belt) so that he may adapt to different situations should the need arise. The basis of Faris' style is wrapping the chain around parts of his target's body (their neck or legs, for example), in order to inhibit their movements.
(Sub) Dagger- Knowing that he won't always be able to rely on his primary weapon, Faris carries around a small dagger which he will only use as a last resort. There is a small clip on the handle, onto which the chain can also be attached.

♠ P E R S O N A L I T Y
Conceited:
Very prideful of both his actions and ideals, Faris believes that he is much better than the average person, and is therefore likely to ignore or belittle the ideas of other people until they have proven their worth.
Impulsive:
Be it in the midst of battle or during a part of his ordinary life, Faris has a habit of acting without much reflection. When he comes up with what seems like a good idea he will act on it immediately; no further thought required. If not for his sharp instincts, he would probably be dead by now.
Possessive:
Once he has decided that something or someone is his, he will be fiercely protective of it, and has very little tolerance for people who try to take away "his things". Specifically with people, if someone else starts to interact with them too much, he'll feel as though he's being replaced and will object in whatever way he finds appropriate. (He likes being the favourite of people who are close to him.)
Has Strong Morals:
With a strong sense of justice above all else, his entire life revolves around eradicating all of the world's filth. Should he witness a crime, he has a firm belief that he has the right to take the law into his own hands, and will punish the villain however he sees fit.
Loyal:
When he decides to do something, Faris will give himself completely to the cause, and will make sure that every single one of his actions will bring him closer to his goal. In a team setting he is completely dependable, and will never abandon any one of his comrades.
Well-Mannered:
Most obviously seen in his mannerisms and speech, he carries himself like a gentleman. Despite his low opinion of most humans (or maybe because of it), he is generally very polite and respectful in social situations.
Passionate:
Life, work, fighting: Faris loves it. All of it. He's quite enthusiastic about it, really. What he may lack in other areas of his personality he more than makes up with motivation and energy. Although he's usually hides this side of himself behind a charming or bored demeanor, get him on the right topic, and it will slip right through.



♠ H I S T O R Y
Having grown up in a very poor neighborhood, Faris, for his entire life, has been too well acquainted with the filth and crime he hates so much.
Born to a pair of high school sweethearts fresh out of 12th grade, the new parents -although happy to have their first child- had underestimated how much time and money their newborn would require. Because of their young age and nonexistent university-level education, finding good jobs (or at least well-paying ones) were difficult. Living off of each month's paycheck, the family called a small one-bedroom apartment home and lived in a very sketchy part of town. And despite all this, they were happy. And although their time together was scarce, there was no absence of love. Faris spent much of his early childhood with his mother and, once old enough to look after himself, was charged with his own well-being while his mother sought work.

Although it may have seemed wiser to simply home school Faris, the one thing that his parents wanted above all was to be able to offer him a high school level education. School was expensive yes, but it was something that they wanted their boy to experience. And although it was difficult to manage, it was possible. When the family's second child entered into their lives, however, the mother and father were forced to work more and Faris, five at the time of her birth, became his new sister's caretaker by the time he was seven. Unlike during Faris' childhood, Nevaeh didn't see her parents often, as they commonly worked long hours and, occasionally, multiple jobs. Although this bothered Faris, Nevaeh didn't seem to mind and, in a very short amount of time, came to idolize her older brother.

Because the two grew up in a rough neighbourhood, it goes without saying that street fights were often unavoidable. Even at the tender age of ten, Faris would be picked on by other boys in the neighbourhood, and it wasn't uncommon for him to come home sporting a new bruise or cut. He never fought back, finding it pointless -until his sister started going to school. Fiercely protective over the girl, and absolutely despising the looks that some guys would throw her, Faris started to pick up fighting. What started as simple punches to protect his sister's honour became improvised, when he learned that his small frame gave him no advantage over stronger opponents. This is what motivated him to start fighting with chains. Despite his initial distaste for fighting, Faris grew to love using chains, if only for the pain-filled grimaces he would earn when fighting. They deserved it. They all deserved the pain -and how happy it made him to see the tears in their eyes! It was a small sliver of hope that there were seeing the wrong of their ways!

Despite his growing violent tendencies, Faris was a very good student in school. Although he had very little interest in academics, his will to succeed came from his desire to go to university. Because university meant a high wage, and a high wage meant finally repaying his parents for everything they had done for him over the years... With his sights set on becoming a lawyer and his grade 12 year ending, Faris had successfully managed to earn himself a scholarship due to his good grades. He did it! He could finally stop being a burden. Having been accepted and graced with the money to attend the school of his choice, Faris promptly moved away from home (into an even smaller apartment but in a better neighbourhood), no longer wanting his parents to spent their money on him. He found a job at a low-end restaurant, and life seemed to be going well. Of course it was hard for him to be away from his family (his sister especially), but his resolve was firm. And of course he would go back home to check up on her from time to time.

Just when things were becoming routine, a virus calling itself NaNa had appeared on Faris' newly bought phone. Not understanding how to even work his phone in the first place, and thinking that the virus was some kind of sick joke, Faris initially had no problem losing all access to his technical devices. However, upon reading up on the three organizations, his decision changed. With his eyes first landing on the Sins, he became infuriated with their dedication to chaos and evil. What scum! What filth! A fire was stirred in his heart, and as he continued to look through the organizations, he felt a weight lift as soon as the word "Knight" flashed across his screen. A group dedicated to justice....this, this is what he had been looking for his entire life!! A name he could proudly wear, and a reason (an honest reason!) to go against all of the disgusting crime he'd been witness to his whole life. He could protect his sister, and others like her.... Without a second thought Faris' thumb jabbed at the Knights symbol, and he let out a breath of air he hadn't known he'd been holding.

Quotes:
"I will cleanse the world of all its filth. If you choose to stand in my way, I will cut you down."
"Speak one more word and I will cut out your tongue. Don't tempt me."
"Touch my sister, and I cut off your hand. Oh? You don't believe me? Then by all means try. I dare you."
".....What is this "wi-fi" you speak of?"
"You actually think that you're my equal? How cute! But no matter how confident one may be, prey will always be prey in the eyes of its predator~"

Other:
As seen when he fights, Faris can be quite sadistic. He loves to make his opponents suffer, often inflicting unreasonable levels of pain due to his belief that it is an act of repentance for the soul. Faris honestly believes that he is doing people a favour.
He's secretly a bit of a masochist as well- //punted
Family is what he treasures most. Around them, his sister especially, he can actually be a huge softie.
✦ When it comes to technology, he's actually pretty hopeless. He can work his phone just fine, but that's about it.
✦ Faris has the makings of a great leader, and can effectively lead a team should the need arise. It's when he's placed under someone else, however, that there are problems: unless they're from someone he respects, he's too arrogant to take orders.
✦ When it comes to romance he is horribly awkward. Really, it's almost painful to watch him. He doesn't know how to act, and it angers him how he loses all reason whenever he's around whomever it is that is making his heart beat too fast.
✦ He's pansexual.
He knows how to do most household chores: laundry, cooking, etc.
✦ Because his job has mediocre pay, Faris doesn't actually have much spending money. However, he believes that it is necessary for him to present himself to the public in a certain light when acting as a knight, and therefore has a habit of splurging on high-end clothes. Goodbye paycheck At home he dresses down.
