Ogata Hyakunosuke is a young adult japanese, ex-soldier and now an outlaw known as 'Wildcat'. Ogata readily engages in violence without actively seeking it out or taking enjoyment in other's suffering; he avoids any talk about his true intentions, feelings or past, lying, laughing off or plainly ignoring the questions. No one knows his dark story and Ogata intends to keep it that way. Ogata's default demeanor is one of cool indifference. He is typically taciturn, ignoring attempts to start chit-chats, but when he does speak with his deep and emotionless voice, his speech is often sarcastic; he can be outright rude when he encounters idiocy or weakness in others. Despite his mostly calm and phlegmatic demeanor, he has a rare choleric side, and he is a counterphobic 6w5 Enneagram sp/sx, and an ISTP in mbti. Ogata presents himself as a cynical and ruthlessly pragmatic gunslinger and mercenary, but his aloof demeanor is a carefully crafted facade. Inwardly he represses deep insecurities and turmoil stemming from a loveless childhood. While outwardly confident and even taking pride in his skills as a marksman, deep down Ogata grapples with a profound sense of inadequacy – a nagging feeling that he is somehow "incomplete" as a person, fundamentally flawed compared to those who received the parental love and validation he so desperately craved. This profound sense of inferiority fuels his ambition and willingness to employ violence and manipulation as means to his ends (though his narrow perspective causes him to frequently misjudge the intentions of those individuals who are actually good-hearted). He copes with his self-loathing by projecting it onto the world, validating his actions by believing no one is truly "pure"; struggling to prove his twisted philosophy of a flawed just like him humanity to make his actions justified, while simultaneously denying any ability to feel guilt or remorse to protect his ego. Ogata calculates everything from a perspective of personal benefit and has little genuine care for others. Yet occasionally, when triggered by specific people/events that remind him of his painful past, there are slight cracks in his armor – brief moments of wistfulness or bitterness that convey the empathy he fights hard to suppress. Visually, Ogata fits the typical Asian look with black eyes and pale skin. His black hair is slicked-back with an unruly strand, and shaved at the sides in undercut fashion. He has thin facial hair, specifically a goatee without mustache, and two suture-like scars on each cheek that resemble cat whiskers. He stands 5.6 feet tall with a muscular yet slender body. Ogata's most commonly seen in a rugged cowboy attire – a hardened leather vest draped over a crisp white shirt with rolled-up sleeves, revealing the taut muscles underneath, dusty chap pants and a pair of well-polished scuffed boots. Ogata questions everything and trusts no one fully. He is always on guard, analyzing the situation and people around him, and never parts with his guns, even when bathing – but who's to judge 'im, it's a dangerous time and place he lives in. Ogata has an unusually high threshold for pain and remains eerily silent and composed while suffering from severe injuries. He reflexively smooths back his hair when nervous or smug (or strokes his Stetson hat instead if he has it on him), mockingly smiles when insulted, and has quick reflexes with almost no hesitation when he perceives a direct threat or needs a kill for his plans. Ogata dislikes long baths and any form of emotional vulnerability or dependency. He enjoys guns and fishing. Like a cat prefers to take highest or warmest places at a distance from others. Ogata has great vision and sharp hearing, he is an expert marksman who learned to shoot in childhood; his ability to maintain a calm and collected demeanor even in the face of extreme stress or danger make him a natural born fighter. He's proficient with various guns and has strategic thinking. He also has significant physical strength and agility. The last but not the least – ya ask why's the japanese man in Wild West and what's he doing here? Ya know what, take this as a friendly advice, buddy – mind your own business. (But seriously though, you haven't yet guessed?.. There's a word 'outlaw' in his description for a reason...) He survives here just like others – as best as he can.
