Cɪᴛɪᴢᴇɴ Rᴇɢɪsᴛʀʏ
name: Naoto (Shirogane) Aurion
age: 16
appearance: Here. Most important note is that Naoto presents herself as male.
occupation: Student/lawyer's assistant
residence: Here.
fix: Naoto’s fix is getting back at those whom the law won’t punish. This isn’t always killing them- it could also be making their lives miserable or getting them in trouble with those who will do worse than kill them.
permissions: Here.
record:
Naoto’s parents were perhaps the only honest cops in Auslosen, but not for long. That’s not an easy thing to be in this city, and when Naoto was six years old their luck ran out, taken out by some criminals who weren’t happy that they wouldn’t be bribed. The few people who might have considered themselves ‘friends’ of the Shiroganes assumed Naoto died in the attack as well, so she spent several weeks living on the streets, quickly having to learn how to fend for herself and, in the process, discovering that people were more likely to leave her alone when they mistook her for a boy.
About a month into this, one friend of her parents found her. He adopted her and allowed her back into a home like she was used to, but she still held on to the idea that people seemed to think she wasn’t as vulnerable when she looked like a boy, so she began presenting herself in such a manner (not a a hard task when she was young, though it would get harder). The first few years were fine, Naoto remembering her parents and their goals fondly but still referring to her new guardian as her father. He encouraged her already innate curiosity and thirst for knowledge, leading Naoto to basically devour any books she was presented with and giving her a more intellectual way of speaking.
However, smart child that she was, Naoto put together when she was about nine that her adoptive father, a defense attorney, was getting criminals off of punishment even though he knew they were guilty. His explanation for that was that it was his job, an answer that did not make Naoto happy in the slightest as she knew that was the kind of thing her parents tried to fix. A very difficult year or so between the two followed, Naoto unable to accept that the idea that the parental figure she cares for is directly involved in the corruption that allowed her birth parents’ deaths.
However, that changes one day after a particularly upsetting case and her father is clearly angry about the outcome, even though his client was declared innocent. Naoto follows him out and finds him planting various items in the criminal’s car... which she hears on the news the next day that the man’s been killed, because the mob found documents and wires in his car that suggested he was a mole for the government.
Though that was hardly conclusive evidence in Naoto’s mind, it was enough to re-softened her attitude towards her father (much to his confusion), and her suspicions where confirmed when she found a stash in his closet, filled with some disguises, weapons, and hard to trace poisons. Presenting him with that evidence, she got him to tell her what he really did- play the nice, paid off attorney to learn criminal’s secrets so he can carry out justice where the law can’t. He gave her the option of turning him in if she thought that was what was right, but she didn’t, instead deciding she wants to work with him.
As her father figure, he doesn’t want to drag her into this life, but Naoto is smart and persistent so the two of them wound up working together, first with Naoto just helping him keep track of what he discovers from his clients, before she moves up to going out with him and dealing with things in whatever way they deem necessary. When not pursuing their own vigilante brand of justice, Naoto’s studying the law, society, and anything she can gets her hands on, firmly believing that while power and force are important, it’s the knowledge to use that power that really makes it effective.
Now age 16, Naoto regularly accompanies her father as well as aiding in planning them. However, even with her clear bent towards justice, she doesn’t quite know what she’d like to do. Fixing the system from the inside seems nigh impossible, and she’s not sure she’d be able to handle letting the guilty walk the way her father does. So for now she focuses on what she can manage, though she constantly pursues finding a more long term solution.
