Chuck McArthur

## Appearance

Chucky is a typical angsty teen. Wears a black hoodie, usually with his hood on, along with a pair of dark, baggy jeans. His black hair is scraggly and he has light, patchy stubble on his face. He rarely smiles and sports a very annoyed look most of the time. Chucky stands at an average 5’9” and is very thin.

## Personality

Passing the exam at a very young age and developing a uniquely powerful hatsu, Chucky has become very jaded in the recent years. He begrudgingly follows the orders of his superiors and mentors, but complains quite a bit about it. Hates being called Chucky, despite it being his most used name by colleagues and acquaintances alike, and insists on being called Chuck.

## Backstory

From a young age Chucky learned how to manipulate older people to do what he wanted using his child-like cuteness. He took and passed the Hunter Exam at the very young age of eight, primarily by piggybacking off of the skills of those around him. He had a particular aptitude for Nen and developed a strong manipulation Hatsu that played to his strengths. However, as the boy aged, people stopped willingly playing rock, paper, scissors with him, forcing him to create a second ability to get them to. The loss of his mass appeal eventually turned Chucky into a grouch.

### Fighting style

Chucky is relatively weak for a hunter of his caliber, rarely fighting himself and instead forcing others to do so for him. However, in his eight years as a Hunter, his basic enhancement skills have improved and he has learned how to throw a punch or two, using his Swiss Army knife when necessary.

### Nen

**Winner Winner Chicken Dinner:** Chucky challenges someone to a game of rock, paper scissors with the following terms: best of two, whoever loses has to do a favor for the winner. If Chucky wins, his opponent is forced to do one thing for Chucky, and they will not stop until that task has either been completed or failed. However, the same thing happens if Chucky loses, as he is forced to do his opponents bidding.

The manipulation of this ability does not simply control the target’s body, but the task consumes their mind, forcing them to complete the task of their own free will. Once the challenge of rock, paper scissors is accepted, the game can not be stopped except by a third party or Chuck himself.

**Big, Beady Eyes:** Chucky uses a manipulation hatsu based in his eyes that has two abilities.
First, when making direct eye contact with someone, it becomes nearly impossible to resist his request. The manipulation only lasts as long as the target maintains eye contact with Chucky when the ability is activated. Once the hatsu breaks, the target is able to think their way out of completing the request if they would not normally do it. Thus, very simple, short term requests are typically the only things requested successfully.
Second, the aura in his eyes also manipulates Chucky’s own perception of whatever he is watching, virtually slowing down whatever is in front of him, allowing him to react more quickly.

The purpose of both of these abilities is to strengthen his first hatsu, with ability 1 getting people to agree to play, and ability 2 nearly guaranteeing him a victory in the game. Ability two also helps a bit when Chucky gets pulled into direct combat, as it increases his ability to dodge attack, but he tries to avoid combat as much as possible. Chucky is only able to use this ability for a maximum of 2 minutes in a row. The cooldown time is the same amount of time that Chucky previously used it for.

## Story

He was chosen to join a group of rookie Hunters on their first mission. Tasked to find out more about their alleged betrayal, he was able to manipulate Smokey into giving him enough details right at the start of their trip. His plan was eventually foiled by the rookies, resulting in an unexpected and painful death for him.
