Details

History:

The Toyakas have lived in Italy, the home of their most recent ancestors, after Grindewald came into power as their paranoid, vain head of the household Dmitri Toyaka IX feared that Gridnewald would discover their family secrets and expose them

They've gained some status there when the new head of household moved back believing they were safe. Centuries ago their family was distantly related to the Yoshiku clan and they split up and went separate ways. They became involved in a slightly well known Russian family and then migrated to Italy to avoid persecution for being wizards. Blade is an animagus, his form is a cat with a scar on one eye, from a childhood eye injury. His main reason for becoming an animagus was to have an escape from his home life and when he was a child he made a yubikari(pinky swear) promise with his sister that he would show her how as soon as she made fourth year or turned fourteen whichever came first.

Blade Toyaka's family is a powerful Italian based pure blood family with a rich Japanese - Russian background but being wealthy doesn't mean Blade is happy. His aunt, the head of the family and a charismatic woman with a need to control her relatives believing they 'belong' to her. Blade's mother and father were arranged to wed trying to reunite the Toyakas with the descendants of the Yoshiku's the Strykes

As such Sophia and Tybalt Toyaka never got along and when their children were born , each chose a 'favorite' Sophia chose him, and his father favored his younger child and only daughter, Annamaria. As time went on the relationship deteriorated and Blade's father sunk into alcoholism and his mother's radical perfectionist ways caused her to pressure him.

Fiona, Tyablt's older sister had always been abusive towards her brother and she developed a similar relationship towards her nephew, psychologically abusing him and pretending to care for him. , Blade felt like he couldn't get anyone to believe him, after all, he was a boy and she was a well respected woman. Also he has the threat of Dex, Fiona's cold angry son to keep him quiet. Blade knows Dex's fury, when he was young Dex jabbed Blade in the eyes with his fingers until they were sufficiently injured as a warning to him.

However he had a loyal friend who he could divulge his secrets to, Adrian Aarons a neighbor boy. It was Adrian who first used the nickname Blade to spare his good friend teasing and snickering due to his Japanese birth name. They were joined with an ambitious girl named Gretchen. When Blade's cruel sadistic half cousin Derek kills Adrian, Gretchen quickly shows her color. She betrays Blade and leaves him when he needs her, accusing him of Adrian's death and then becomes...involved with Derek.

Thus Blade is very jaded by people(and women) but he seems to not show it. He is flirtatious and has all the symptoms of one looking for love in all the wrong places. His mother raised him to believe that gluttony was one of the worst behaviors one could exhibit and thus Blade eats very little and is very underweight.

Example of Roleplay:

Blade looked both ways and closed the compartment door. He quickly took out a cigarette and lit it then took a deep breath of it and leaned back on the seat. He had been expelled from his last school because of a fight with a kid who accused him of murdering Adrian Aarons. He lost his temper. He tried to tell his father it wasn’t his fault, the headmaster hated him. But his Dad was too drunk to listen and pummeled him leaving him in the den with wounds from a broomstick broken over his back.

“I swear if not for Anne I’d leave and never turn back” he sighed to himself. He snuffed the cigarette out and pulled out a flask of his father’s Gin that he had stolen mixed with essence of mint, “well” he stashed the drink away and opened the compartment doors looking for girls his year or above. “Let’s make this term a bit interesting shall we?
