Name: Duncan James “DJ” Mcloud
Age: Sixteen
Date of Birth: September 4th
Birthplace: Hokkaido, Japan
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual (Female preference)
Face Claim: Isana Yashiro, K
Appearance:
Height: 5 feet 8 inches
Distinguishing Features: His body language is extremely neutral and he carries himself in a way so that he doesn’t make much of an impression.
Class: Persona-User
Arcana: Empress
Occupation: Student/Newspaper Intern
Weapons and Proficiencies (Optional): One-Handed Swords/Slash
Personality: DJ is a generally kind individual with a lot of energy but makes a great effort not to fly off the handle or express himself too much for fear of his own emotions. He tries to keep himself cool and collected and most of all centered, but this doesn’t come easy. Left without his inhibitions he is easily flustered and excited, somewhat perverted and often worked up or angered but tries his hardest not to show it to all but his closest companions. Even while he tries to hide his emotions he can’t hide the fact that he’s a bit weird and tends to think differently than most people. This tends to most often manifest in rather feminine or girly tendencies towards things or ideas most heterosexual males wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole. When he gets overly excited he is prone to bursts of violence and sadism and is barely in control of himself at all in contrast to his cool and kind demeanor. This dark side is why he tries to keep a hold on his emotions at all times and attempts to remain “zen” to avoid going out of control. This being said while he tries to keep his cool he never does so at the risk of being cold, always making sure to let people know he cares even if he can’t risk showing it sometimes.

History: DJ was born into a normal family, possibly the worst match for him because he was not a normal child. He was extremely energetic and rambunctious from a young age and his parents had a hard time controlling his outbursts and holding his attention. To top it off he was just a little… odd and his poor parents couldn’t track his train of thought most of the time when he did things, making it even harder to get a hold on him. His parents’ concern grew and they had him tested by his doctors who diagnosed him with ADHD and prescribed medicine to even him out. His parents tried the medication and it seemed to work wonders, almost overnight DJ became a calm and obedient child, it seemed as if the treatment had worked almost too well.
His parents had another child a year or two later but despite their fears that they would have another handful like he was, their new daughter was calm and perfectly well-behaved. He grew close with his sibling as they grew now that he was calm as well and became somewhat introverted but otherwise matured into a rather kind boy. His family moved to Mosaic City when he and his sister were still young for a combination of business and education reasons, the family figured that it would be a good fresh start for everyone, that it was time for a change. When he was about thirteen, just a year before he was to go into high school his parents wondered if he had been misdiagnosed because of his young age and took him off his medication. He proved to still be somewhat of a energetic spazz but it was at a much more manageable level than before now that he had matured and could hold himself back a bit more. One thing that had not changed was that he was still fiercely protective over his sister Serena.
One day a few boys his age were picking on Serena for how weird and embarrassing her big brother was. He tried to defend her but they took their grievances to him personally and began to push the issue. His protective instincts overrode his better judgment and the dam broke on the flood of emotions that had been held back by drugs and willpower for several years. In a fit of rage he grabbed a baseball bat and in the ensuing rampage broke one boy’s arm and sent the other to the hospital with several similar injuries. When asked about it later he couldn’t remember the incident at all, simply having blacked out. Because of this and the extenuating circumstances the case was ruled overzealous self-defense and his family got away with a small settlement on the condition that DJ attend therapy. In his therapy sessions the boy learned to keep himself calm and collected despite his clear rage issues and despite the doctor’s help redoubled his efforts to try and keep a lid on his emotions.
For the next few years DJ succeeded in being a calm and focused person and did fairly well in high school even though his social life was fairly stinted because of it. Part of him had changed forever as he was afraid of his violent streak though he still remained a good person deep down. Serena got an early scholarship to a high school back in Japan and his father’s business in the city had been wrapped up to the rest of his family decided to move back there to help Serena with her school and leave DJ there as to not interrupt his own school life, feeling he’d be fine living on his own. His parents continued to send money to help support him though he got an internship at a local newspaper to help out as well. It was partway into his sophomore year of High School that the blockade went up and cut him off from most contact with his family, part of him wanted to find a way out but he didn’t want to get infected by the radiation. Partly through instinct that something was wrong and partly through sheer dumb luck he wandered outside the circle one day, getting attacked by shadows and awakening his Persona. He nearly blacked out again when he was attacked but heard the voice inside his head urging him to consciousness as he rage was once again unleashed, this time on a worthy target. In a way the shadows became a perfect release for the emotions he hid from people for fear of hurting someone. Armed with his new weapons and the truth he seeks to break through and find his family again and let them know that he’s alright as well as cope with his enjoyment of fighting and survive in this odd new world he has awakened into.
