Mental Information

Personality: Kubo, is at best, a clown. Making a joke out of everything is the way he deals with things. Sometimes, he does it to actually be funny, but other times, he does it to let out pain. For instance, when his mother and father died, people asked how he was doing. His only response was "A lot better than mom and dad." People thought he was insanely ignorant, but it was just his way of dealing.

Kubo likes to have a good time, bottom line. If he's not having fun, he finds a way to make whatever he's doing fun. He has a very outgoing personality which makes him very likeable. Kubo never judges anybody based on what they look like, speak like, or act like. He tries to see the good in everybody. Sometimes though, he gets fed up with trying to find the good and just avoids said person all together. Other than that, he tries to make as many friends as possible.

Mentality: Sane, except when drunk.

Ideal: "If everyone in the world would toast a drink to each other, there'd be a lot less violence."

Belief: Atheist (God complicates things)

Physical Information

Build: Pretty slim, but he hides a lot of muscle.

Head: Kubo's brown hair stands spiked up on his head, although normally there is a hat on top of it. His eyes are very large, making it seem as though he's staring into your soul. His nose is also pretty big, which is why a lot of people call him a Jew. His lips and mouth are normal and he has a perfect set of teeth. He's never had a cavity, and all his teeth are right where they should be. He has a little stubble of hair on his chin which he never shaves, and sideburns that reach down to his earlobes.

Torso: Kubo is looks very slim when he has his shirt on. Most people would think that he was a puny loser. But when that shirt comes off, he clearly shows a six-pack that he has spent countless hours in the gym forming. His chest also shows his muscles and attracts the ladies quite nicely.

Arms: Kubo's arms are abnormally long. His muscles are portrayed nicely, but people wouldn't be able to really notice them unless he actually flexed, which he doesn't do often. Kubo knows he has a good body, but he doesn't like to brag about it. His arms are very hairy. People tell him he should wax them, but he likes the look.

Legs: Very long, Kubo's legs are what stand out on his body. His legs are longer than the rest of his body combined. Fortunately though, they come in very useful when fighting. Like his arms, his legs are also very hairy. He has a scar on his left knee from a biking accident when he was twelve. He had to have his knee operated on after being hit by a car.

Feet: Kubo has large feet, size 16 to be exact. Unfortuantely though, he lost his right foot's middle toe in the same accident he had to get his knee operated on for. It used to affect the way he walked, but now that he's gotten used to it, he's been able to walk like normal.

Advantages: Kubo's body is perfect for fighting. He works out for two hours every other day, and also practices kickboxing. His speed is insane and he can be very quiet if sneaking up on somebody. He also doesn't get tired very quickly, so he can exert energy for hours on end.

Disadvantages: Kubo's drinking sometimes gets the best of him. Alcohol turns his body to shit. He couldn't sneak up on a deaf guy if he's not sober. His body rejects the alcohol, so not only does he get drunk quicker, but he has to use the bathroom every ten minutes. Also, his feet can sometimes be too big. He tends to kick a lot of things and lose his balance because of them.

Apparel Information

Head Gear: Kubo almost always wears a hat. The only hats he has though are regular caps with skateboarding logos on them. His most commonly worn one is his Element hat.


Shirts: Regular cotton shirts are all that Kubo owns. He has a couple jackets for the winter time, but other than that, it's shirt-sleeves year round. He owns a copious amount of shirts with funny sayings on them, like a camo shirt that says "You don't know it, but I'm standing right in front of you." He mainly buys these at Wal-Mart or Hot Topic.

Pants: Mainly long pants. Any color of denim, but normally, it's black. Khaki pants are also a favorite of Kubo's.

Shoes: He only owns two pairs of shoes. One is a tan pair of Vans skating shoes, and the other is a black pair of flip flops. He is normally only seen wearing the Vans though.

Misc: Any kind of wristband, Kubo will wear it. He has a ton of wristbands with band logos, video game characters, and funny sayings stuffed in his dresser drawer. He also likes to wear black gloves, with only his fingers showing. He rarely takes them off.

Fighting Information

Fighting Style: Street
Years Practiced: 5
Description of style: Ever since he was ten, Kubo has been training to fight. He's taken a couple different martial arts, but none of them really stuck. That's when Kubo decided he wasn't going to practice "real" fighting. He started learning everything he needed to know about fighting from his older brother. Everything from defending to attacking. He tries to make his opponents tires before he goes on the offensive, which normally works. His stance is this: feet spread equally apart and knees slightly bent, with his left foot slightly forward. Arms at 45 degree angles away from his body. Muscles tense, he waits for his opponent to attack.

History Information

Early Life
Kubo was born on September 22^nd, 1992. He came home to a six year old brother named Benn. His mother and father loved him very much. Kubo was a good child, never got into anything he was supposed to and never broke any of the rules. His brother tried to blame things on him, but his parents never believed him. For about three years, Benn intensely hated Kubo. But then again, what older brother doesn't hate the new kid on the block?

Kubo started Preschool at age four, which began his love of reading. Every day in class, Kubo would offer to read out loud to the class, even if he didn't know all the words. Sometimes, he would read a few words he knew and make up whatever he didn't know. The teacher's saw Kubo's enthusiasm and creative potential, and helped to improve it. Another reason why Kubo's parents loved him.

Preteen Life
When Kubo was eleven, there was a terrible accident. His parents had been in a parking garage after a night at the theater and were mugged. The mugger pulled a gun on both of them and forced them to turn over their wallets and jewelry. They did so, but the mugger decided to shoot Kubo's father as a parting gift. His mother was left alive, but not for long. The mugger grabbed their car keys and took off in their car. He drove straight at Kubo's mom, without slowing down, and hit her before she had time to dive out of the way. Kubo's parents died then and there, changing his life forever.

At this time, Benn was seventeen but still not legally an adult. Both he and Kubo went to live with their aunt and uncle for a year, until Benn was eighteen. A month after his birthday, the brothers set out to find a place to live. They had all the money their parents had left them, which was a surprising amount. Benn had also gotten a job working at a television station, as a cameraman for the local news. It brought in a fair amount of money, and soon enough, Benn and Kubo had their own apartment.

Present Life
Kubo and Benn are getting along fine now in their apartment. Ever since the death of their parents, they have slowly been becoming better brothers. Every once in a while, Benn will throw a party and have a ton of people show up. That was where Kubo first learned to drink and party. He had been sitting around a poker table, playing strip poker, and having a ball. And Benn was right there next to him, getting wasted as well. Kubo has been out trying to find a job, but it's been difficult because of his age. Soon though, he'll start at Public High School #259. A start to a new era in his life. Like Benn always said, "High school is the best four years you'll ever have."

Living Status Information
