Phakpoom Kumnerddee

**Phakpoom Kumnerddee** is core ally of Part 7: Masquerade of the Guilty.

Introduced as an antagonist, Phakpoom soon becomes Thanawat Tewinphakthi's and Nattawat Larpthawornkiet best friend. They stay close friends throughout Part 7 and tackle malevolent Vision users together.

## Appearance

Phakpoom is a young man of short height and slender build with a beautiful face. He has a youthful appearance with dark indigo hair styled into a messy bowl cut and indigo eyes with red eyeliner.

Phakpoom outfit consists of a large circular dark blue hat with golden details with the top part resembling a lotus, with a pair of light blue fabric that dangles from the back of his hat, attached with a pair of diamond-shaped trinkets. Accessories resembling the finials of a *shakujo* staff hang from these strips of light blue fabric. He sports a tight black high-collared undershirt with long detached sleeves and a golden ornament attached to the center just beneath the collar, over which he wears a loose white tunic with blue tones.

## Personality

During his childhood, Phakpoom was a good-natured and resourceful kid. His mother raised him with love and taught him to keep his dignity in even the direst of situations. At age five, witnessing his mother sacrificing her hands so that he could be fed, Phakpoom developed a resentment of everyone around him for allowing that terrible incident to happen, along with an insatiable ambition.

Since then Phakpoom has been driven to climb the social ladder in order to get back at everyone who wronged him in the past. Upon hearing about the Visions, he first sought them for himself and as soon as he found himself in a disadvantageous position, didn't waste time in proposing his services to Nawasorn Kittinanchai, The Prime Minister of Maneepruksa in exchange for his participation. He harbours a grudge against his biological father, and was ready to cooperate with Pornprapha Inchareon when she proposed to tell him about his whereabouts.

## Abilities

**Immense Speed & Reflexes**: Phakpoom possesses tremendous speed and reflexes. He is the second fastest runner among the squad. During the fight against Thanawat and Nattawat, when he was disputing with Thanawat, Phakpoom moved using a burst of speed so fast it made it seem like he teleported according to some observers.

**Immense Stamina & Endurance**: Phakpoom never once showed signs of pain or agony, His incredible stamina and pain endurance also shone through during his battle with Poramet, where he could keep up with the Upper Rank harbringer for an extended period of time by himself and upon receving numerous severe injuries from one of Poramet's techniques.

**Unarmed Combat Proficientcy**: Phakpoom possesses a natural talent in the art of unarmed combat, making him capable of defeating most opponents despite having little to no training. He was able to compete with Poramet, who is also a very skilled unarmed combatant.

**Anemokinesis**: As an Anemo user, Phakpoom can manipulate powerful torrents of air and whirlwinds, and replicates it with his movements, techniques and abilities. Most, if not all, known techniques and forms involve purely offensive attacks, most of which utilizing rotating movements to generate swift whirlwind-like slashes that greatly increase the wielder's striking range or utilizing the air around them to deliver sharp sickle-shaped attacks.
