Itami Kalaman

“WORLD CLASS”

***Itami Kalaman** (板見カラマン)* is a Human , having roots in the Nozar Kingdom. Though, he grew up in the outskirts of the Kuki no Yona Country, and attended classes in the Chikarakingdom. Graduating at the age of 16 from an academy in the Chikara kingdom, he quickly rose in fame, completing quest after quest. He's done this for the past three years, having just recently turned 19. Now, he can be found somewhere in the world of Hiraeth, wondering, completing quests, and doing just about whatever he pleases.

## Personality

Itami Kalaman was born from a high class family, hailing from a line of war heroes, nobles, generals, everything. His natural talent and genetic pool was, quite simply, insane. This is thought to be the reason for his high ego, self confidence that simply shouldn’t be so high, and sarcastic attitude. He carries himself with a sense of pride, and often looks down on others, the classic school bully, at least when he was younger. He was always the type to be playing practical jokes on the lower class children, being an entitled child that no one could actively fight against due to his natural strength. But, when his parents and caretakers found his unique class of strength to be very much...different then any normal gifted child. This is what propelled that ego even further, and what also led to him being humbled.

Itami spent approximately eleven out of his nineteen years living at an academy for gifted children in the legendary Chikara empire, instantly becoming one of the more notable students. Outclassing some of the legendary members of the Ritsuko clan, and the natural strength that the Oni race has in itself. Proving himself further and further, he grew older and more prideful. Regularly beating older students, performing top of his age group on academic studies, it was as if life couldn't get any better for the youngster. But, it all came crashing down when an older student who was much more skilled than Itami himself sat him down, very hard. Of course, getting someone like the young Itami to be humbled so quickly is next to impossible. Having taken multiple beatings before he realized he could not win, he accepted his defeat, being sent back to his dorm sniffling. There, Itami vowed to not only get stronger, but to recognize the meaning behind it as well, as the beating had been given with an important lesson. That day, Itami not only grew in strength, but he realized his reason.

As time passed, Itami refined his brutish nature in his strength, picking up multiple fighting styles, and even beginning to manifest and control his divinity. As his fighting matured, so did Itami himself. While he was still charming, sarcastic, and overall prideful, he was a lot less. Having his times of humbleness and gratefulness, he was officially maturing. As he finally graduated from his academy, and started on his path to become a world class adventurer, he was already the talk of the Chikara empire due to him being a Human, and not an Oni. Graduating at the top of the Oni-Dominated Class, he had already foiled multiple plots against the school's hierarchy, earning him infamy before he even officially became an adventurer. Dealing with this new fame, Itami matured and became less mature at the same time. Being described as a "womanizer", he became what is effectively a novel adventurer, completing quests, sleeping with just about any woman he wanted, and drinking booze with the best of them. He still is like this nowadays, but generally a lot less, this is due to him realizing the harshness of the world, through the tragedies he's experienced over the years. Being a famous adventurer really does put a target on some people's backs.
