# Overview

Akira Kurusu is the twin human brother of Seraphina and one of the many characters of the GUP AU series. He has the same origins, mostly, as Seraphina, but managed to retain his memories of those events. His AURA is a lot brighter than Seraphina's, which lets him summon more attack-based Abilities. He is also a student of Red Blossom High School, but is not at the rank where Seraphina is. He has above average skill when in a round, but is not as skilled as Seraphina. Is usually at his best when using glass cannons.

# Description

Calm and Collected, an uppercaser(as told in Vermillion's notes) Often gives out a sort of "Silent Protagonist" feeling, and he is not as cunning or great in battle as Seraphina is, but he's reliable and confident. Some people are often scared of him from his \*ahem\* "intimidating" stature. He is there for others when they need assistance. He is also often relaxed at times. Usually seen wearing his signature glasses and male RBHS outfit. Other times he's seen wearing a basic black and red tee and shorts. Known to be the more offensive Ability-user of the twins, while Seraphina is the Support, although the roles were swapped once Seraphina had shown her Calamity Form. Amazing at cooking, he even got Phoenix to cry happy tears one time, even though he keeps saying he "got something in his eye". Fluently understands sign language, just like Seraphina.

# Skill Sets

* **Blinding Light:** ***(Active Ability)*** Able to form a bright flash of light around him and/or his tank which which can blind surrounding enemies, and will let him retreat to a safer area.

* **Flare Bullet**: ***(Active Ability)*** When in the WZ 135G FT Blaze, he has the opportunity to fire an AURA-enhanced bullet that can deal massive damage, a larger percentage of setting fire, and better penetration. Although, this takes a large amount of FOCUS, and once the shot fires, this will immediately incapacitate the tank and him for about 7 seconds. After that time is over, it can fully move again. Also, this shot can only be used **TWICE** a day.

* **AURA Dagger**: ***(Synchronized Weapon)*** An ornamented dagger that has been enhanced by physical AURA. Can be summoned at any time the user needs and can de-spell it at any time. Able to pierce armored soldiers in the back. Perfect for highly skilled knife-wielders that are able to use AURA.

* **Glass Cannon Mastery**: ***(Passive Skill)*** Fully excels when battling in a glass cannon. All stats increase when commanding a glass tank.

All of these skills are now locked and cannot be used except for the Dagger Summoning.
