character's age;; 21
height, weight, and body type;; Masaru is of average height, 172 cm, and weights 52 kg. He's thin, and usually looks more so when wearing baggy-ish clothes. Unless he's wearing form fitting clothes, he looks super thin, other wise. He's not... built, per se, but has muscles that you can see, sorta.
distinguishing features;; A big scar on his abdomen from a car accident when he was still a kid.
general appearance;; Masaru's style is pretty normal. He usually just jeans jeans and t-shirts with a jacket. His older sister has a habit of dragging him shopping and forcing him to buy things - ie, she says she'll buy it for him, which makes him feel bad, which makes him buy it. He's very hygienic, and wears his father's wedding ring on a chain around his neck, all the time. Except for sleeping and when he's in the bath.
play by;; Kamenashi Kazuya
group;; Civilian
general personality;; Masaru is... very quiet. Even if he knows you well, he's just quiet. He's selectively mute, and because of that, he can't talk around most people. As a young adult, it's really bad, because it makes it hard for him to get or keep a job. As of right now, he's a photographer for a locally run paper, and his boss is actually his older sister, so, he doesn't have to worry much about being fired. He can be a little geeky at times, liking things lots of people would call childish, like Pokemon. It's probably because he never really did those things as a child, because he was too afraid to speak up and play with the other kids, unless invited to.
He's a very sweet person, and loves to make people smile. He wants to be a photographer, but, of people. Maybe a cosplay photographer, because he's always had a weird fascination with the costumes, but, never done it himself. He generally has his camera with him, mostly for fear of losing it.
Fears;;Talking in front of people, losing his camera, never being able to talk - like, at all
Goals;; To be a real photographer, graduate from college, get over his SM
Quirks;; Well, Pokemon, and anime counts as a guilty pleasure, right? He also carries his camera ever where, along with a note book and pen, in case he needs to tell someone something and can't get it out. Often times he, if asked, will just tell people he's mute, because he finds it easier to give that lie than explain selective mutism.

history;; Masaru was born a pretty normal, and aside from being quiet, he had a pretty normal childhood, too. He had a mother, and a father, and a big sister. No, the being quiet part didn't really bother his parents, although it did his sister. He would be normally fun and cheerful, loud even, when he was just around the family, but, have anyone else come near him, and even getting a little greeting out of him was impossible. Half the time he looked like he was going to cry when people tried to get him to talk around people he didn't know.
As he got older, this didn't get better. When he was about seven, his parents took him to a doctor, who told them to take him to a psychologist. He was diagnosed with Selective Mutism, and really, there wasn't much his parents could do, because he was too afraid to talk to even the doctor. So, it went on. He didn't have many friends, and thus he was very close to his big sister, because Ran would often do the talking for him if need be.
On Ran's sixteenth birthday, when Masaru was ten, they went out to dinner, and on the way home, they got into a car accident. Ran wasn't hurt much, some minor things. Masaru had needed a large amount of stitches, the scar on his abdomen. However, they're parents weren't so lucky. They died, leaving the siblings in the care of their lovable aunt, Sora. After that, live went back to normal, more or less. Sora moved to her sister's house instead of having Ran and Masaru move to hers, and the kids continued with school. To this day, Sora has moved out of the house, but, Ran and Masaru live there still. Ran's few long term boyfriends and girlfriends have lived there, too, but, as of the moment, his big sister is single so it's just the two of them.
Masaru frowned a little, lowering his camera. Something felt... off. He wasn't sure what, but, something felt different from usual. Which was saying something, because half the time there were monsters running around the city, and the Go-Buster's stopping them. He had managed to avoid the monsters most of the time, and never really been in the wrong place at the wrong time, but, still something felt off.
And with a sigh, he packed his camera up, and
made by KAY. Must credit if used.
