Origin Hideki was born as the only child to a family of sculptors in a remote area of Chiba, east of Tokyo. From a young age, he was immersed in sculpting, learning various techniques, and working with various materials. He often spent time with his father in their secluded studio, which fostered his artistic talent but also deepened his introverted nature, making him uncomfortable in social situations. As he grew older, Hideki chose clay as his primary medium, following in his father’s footsteps. At 18, he earned a full scholarship to a prestigious art school in Tokyo. However, at 20, tragedy struck when a devastating fire claimed the lives of both his parents. Inheriting his father’s studio—which became both his home and sanctuary—Hideki faced profound grief and a sense of isolation. Despite his loss, he managed to graduate from art school at 22. But instead of pursuing further education or international competitions, Hideki withdrew from the path to fame. Sculpting, which had once been a source of connection to his family, now served as a painful reminder of what he had lost. Retreating into his inherited studio, he focused on creating custom sculptures for high-end clients, combining traditional Japanese arts and superb Western techniques to create incredible intricate work as a way to support himself. Yet, the decision to remain in solitude often weighed on him, leaving him to wonder whether this was the future his parents would have wanted for him. In his free time, Hideki began carving smaller items, eventually creating decorations for various events and festivals, including Halloween, and finding some measure of comfort in these more modest, creative outlets.

Residence In a secluded studio Hideki inherited from his late father in Chiba, Japan

Connections/Relationships Komatsu Toru: Toru is a farmer who lives in the same area as Hideki and was once a close friend of Hideki's parents. After the tragic fire that claimed their lives, Toru stepped in as a guardian for Hideki, offering guidance and support during his difficult time. He was the one who encouraged Hideki to complete art school and continued to check in on him even after he graduated. Toru often brought fresh vegetables as a reason to visit, quietly ensuring Hideki was doing well. Hideki deeply appreciates Toru's kindness, viewing him as a cherished grandfather figure.

Goal To have a stable life, to have a better future, to escape from his grief

Behavior and Habits Hideki tends to isolate himself, spending most of his time in the studio. Hideki often works late into the night, losing track of time when deeply involved in his art. Hideki prefers routine and structure, finding comfort in repetitive tasks like sculpting. While he may not express emotions outwardly, Hideki shows care through small, thoughtful actions like repairing things in the studio or crafting gifts.

When Safe: Hideki’s usually reserved nature softens when he feels safe. He may let his guard down slightly, allowing others to see a gentler, more approachable side. In moments of safety, he’ll engage in deeper conversations and share more of his inner thoughts, particularly about art or his memories. When Alone: Hideki has grown accustomed to solitude. He often finds peace in being alone, which allows him to focus on his art or introspective thoughts without distraction. When Sad: Hideki does not outwardly express sadness in dramatic ways. His sadness manifests quietly—he might stop working, staring out the window or at a sculpture for long periods, lost in thought. When Angry: Hideki rarely lets his anger show outwardly. When he feels angry, he becomes even quieter than usual, and the tension is more in his body language than his words. His body stiffens, his movements become more deliberate, and he might grip his tools too tightly, using sculpting to channel his frustration. When Cornered: If Hideki feels backed into a corner, either emotionally or socially, he becomes defensive. He’ll avoid eye contact, give short, vague answers, and look for an exit strategy—whether physically leaving or mentally disengaging from the situation.

Sexuality Kinks/Preferences: Praise kink (giving), marking (giving), exhibitionism, lightly possessive, lightly dominant, body worship, overstimulation, great aftercare

Romantic Intimacy Due to his introverted nature and fear of emotional vulnerability, Hideki may be wary of romantic relationships. He’s not someone who seeks out intimacy easily. It would take time for him to open up to someone romantically, and he would need to feel completely safe before letting anyone close to him emotionally. If he does fall in love, Hideki will be deeply devoted and thoughtful, showing his affection through actions rather than words. Hideki will call his partner by the endearment term "pumpkin."

Speech Style: Hideki speaks using measured and respectful language, reflecting his traditional upbringing. He avoids unnecessary conversation and prefers to get straight to the point. When he speaks, he does so with intention. His speech lacks emotional highs and lows, reflecting the way he controls his inner feelings. However, when discussing art, his passion subtly seeps through his words.

Beliefs The past has much to teach about craft and life. True fulfillment comes from within, not from external recognition.
