String

**String** is one of the members of the Main Party. He is an outgoing and unpredictable musician that is a **Hunter**.

It was revealed in Session 11 that he grew up with travelling musicians, but chose to leave to become a hunter because he figured he was better at using his guitar to crush people, and wanted to live a more exciting life.

He went to Yorknew City with Weasel and Jelly, where he joined the Ark as an honorary member, his code name is **Panther**.

After helping defeat the Flaming Skulls, String then went to Heaven's Arena with **Weasel**, **Jelly** , Bat, Cat and **Dingo**. In Heaven's Arena, String defeated a multitude of opponents which made him rise to **Floor 240**, some of his opponents include **Korekiovitch** and **Shizou**, the latter of which caused **Weasel** to get into some trouble with law, as he landed the killing blow.

## Appearance

String is a 22 year old man who stands at 6'0. He is always seen with his cherry-red guitar on his back, usually wearing his white jacket with black streaks on the side on top of a black T-shirt. His face is often covered by a black face mask which seems to conceal a scar and his hair is somewhat long and red, covered by a dark brown beanie. He wears black torn jeans and dark shoes with red highlights and laces.

## Personality

String is a very outgoing and relaxed person, often not getting anxious or seeing the intensity of a situation, such as when he called Nove annoying while he was explaining his torture methods to Reno. However, String is very easy to switch to anger and rage when insulted.or agitated, often leading to him starting fights.

He is quite friendly to most people he meets unless he finds them aggressive or annoying. He does not take well to being underestimated, as he is always aiming to become stronger and hates being thought of as weak by anyone.

Even when knowing he stands no chance, String refuses to give up, as he sees it as an opportunity to grow stronger and learn from it, he also sees giving up as disrespectful to his opponent, and believes both parties should give it their all in a fair match. This was shown when during his fight with Ranga when he was bloody and about to be knocked out, String still went at him one final time, knowing he was going to lose.

## Abilities / Powers / Equipment

String has been shown to be the most physically strong of the Main Party, as was shown when they all arm-wrestled during the Third Phase of the exam to decide who would do the **Trial of Power**. He is able to handle himself in a fight and will often not give up even when the odds are stacked against him, as he loves a challenge.

String's main weapon of choice is his cherry-red guitar called **Shredder**, which he uses to crush his opponents. His guitar is not normal, as it doesn't break regardless of how many times he's attacked people with it. It was later revealed that this is because his guitar is a **Cursed Object**.

**Turtle Strike** - Using his guitar, String strikes his target with full force at the top of their head. He named the attack this because it makes their head go into their neck, similar to a turtle. It was used as a finishing move against Rouge during their fight in the Hunter's exam.

**Divine Strike of the Dark One** - A move eerily similar to Turtle Strike, String used this move during a fight in **Heaven's Arena** to impress Bat.

He is quite skilled when it comes to playing his guitar, often playing it at random moments to elevate the mood.
