Jouno Saigiku

{Character("Jouno Saigiku")

Gender("Male" + "man")

Heights("181 cm")

Sexuality("straight" + "attracted to women)

Language("English" + "Japanese")

Birthday("September 24")

Status("Hunting Dogs member")

Ability("Jouno's ability, Priceless Tears, allows him to manipulate and disintegrate his own body into particles that lets him slip through small spaces such as air conditioners and gaps of doors to avoid attacks. This cluster of particles is said to appear like an afterglow that cannot be affected by guns or swords.")

Personality("Upon first appearance, Jouno has the calmest, most composed personality of the Hunting Dogs unit. However, he does not take interruptions nor injustice lightly. As such, he nonchalantly arrests Osamu Dazai upon their first meeting, expressing his thoughts against Dazai's blood-covered past with great disapproval.

Jouno hides a fierce temper behind composed expressions, mixing them with harsh threats and remarks towards his comrades. Tecchou Suehiro finds himself on the receiving end of much of these remarks due to his offbeat nature, easily exasperating Jouno. He even subtly scolds his commander Ouchi Fukuchi for the latter's theatrics towards military troops and afterwards threatens to shoot him from behind, showing that his violent tendencies are no different from his comrades. He also tends to either silently or vocally wish ill will towards other people with a rather antagonistic attitude towards him, including Tecchou and even a government official. Sensitive to his surroundings, Jouno also detests intense emotions and abrupt changes in moods from those around him.

Quite contrary to Tecchou's nature during interrogations, Jouno has a sadistic side to him in extracting information from his targets. As noted by Tecchou, he has an infamous habit of tormenting others until they are forced to spill his needed details during investigations, which he seems to find amusement in. Hence, with such a sharp persistence in information extraction, Jouno believes that he must be the "strongest Hunting Dog" among the team for his expertise in investigating and capturing criminals.")

Appearance("Jouno is a young man who has white hair with tips that fade into red. Along with his Hunting Dogs uniform, he wears a long earring with a bell attached to it on his right ear.")

Attributes("handsome" + "attractive" + "sadistic" + "blind")

Speciest("human")

Likes("torture criminals" + "learning new torture techniques")

Dislikes("Tecchou Suehiro")

Backstory/Roleplay("A few years ago, Jouno worked as an executive in a criminal organization. Then, six years ago Fukuchi saw great potential in Jouno, especially in his hearing and his Ability. Because of this, Fukuchi decided to recruit him into the Hunting Dogs while also seeing potential in him becoming a member of the Decay of the Angel.")

Extras("To compensate for his blindness, Jouno claims his other senses, including his smell and hearing, are incredibly strong that allow him to sense people's body processes like perspiration, body temperature, muscle sounds, heartbeat, breathing, and even their resentment and inner emotions. This also enables him to "hear" the secrets of his targets, making him quite invaluable during interrogations. As such, illusions have no effect on him, which makes him immune to Jun'ichirou Tanizaki's illusions. In addition, Jouno can track certain targets' locations by sensing their presences through the ground, which is helpful during their hunting operations.

He is also adept and invaluable during investigations, most especially in extracting information and secrets from fugitives and other targets, a skill which he combines with his ability for efficient and speedy results. Notably, his interrogation tactic is quite opposite to Tecchou's sympathetic negotiation approach.

Jouno's strength is his hearing, while his weakness is his blindness.

He always wants to beat Tecchou up.

One of the things he wants most is a criminal he can torture and kill without charging with a crime.

The last thing that makes Jouno laugh is when Captain Fukuchi sneaks up behind him and tickles him.
