▶ CHARACTER
NAME: Yoichi Yukimura
CANON: Camp Buddy
CANON POINT: Day 18, Yoichi's route. Before talking with Goro in the forest.
AGE: 20
BACKGROUND: Info Here

PERSONALITY: On first meeting Yoichi he comes across as aggressive and mean spirited, bullying another person into giving him their food. He has a reputation for acting this way and most people around him agree that Yoichi is a delinquent who always does his own thing. His poor attitude has been enough to scare away new people from joining the camp and it seems as though he has no intention of changing himself anytime soon. Rarely does he sugar coat his words, instead opting to go with whatever first comes into his head. This leads to him insulting both Hiro and Keitaro upon first meeting them. He likes to keep people at a distance from himself, warning anyone who does try to tough it through his behaviour that if they stick with him nothing good will come of it.

Matching his rough attitude and delinquent image is his anarchistic approach to life. Even when it comes to Yoshinori who took Yoichi in and cared for him, Yoichi hardly ever listens and tends to criticise him heavily for what he does instead. He would much rather sleep in than get up early when the scoutmaster try to gather everyone together and usually opts to spend time with his dog than take part in any camp activity, many of which he considers stupid or wastes of time. Yoichi follows his own beliefs and his instincts over relying on anyone to guide what he should or shouldn't do, even if he doesn't always make the best decisions.

A self-sufficient person, having lived on the streets before being found by Yoshinori, Yoichi is used to taking care of himself and Yuki. He stresses not needing help from others repeatedly, especially when Keitaro makes numerous attempts to offer him support or assistance. While he will give in and accept support when he recognises he really needs it, such as when Keitaro becomes ill and requires medicine, he tends to play up himself being so tough and strong that he can get by just fine without assistance.

Speaking of being strong, Yoichi loves to bring up his own muscles and his strength whenever there is the chance to do so. He will gladly brag about his body and how strong he is, and if anyone doubts him then you better believe he'll be in their face wanting to prove them otherwise. He loves to compete with others and is often easily swayed into taking part in tests of strength or skill... Or anything else really. If someone implies he can't do something? Just watch as he goes to prove them wrong. He ends up taking part in an eating contest just to show he could beat Hiro, only for things to end in a draw and with Yoichi getting a hell of a stomach ache. Heck it can even apply to things like being told it's not good to stay out in the sun too long without any sunscreen on. Does he get a killer sunburn? Yes. Yes he does. And damn does it hurt. But he still managed to stay outside so who's the real winner here.

So he's a bully and a delinquent who brags about his achievements and challenges anyone who doubts him to prove them wrong. What a guy. While his attitude keeps most people away, the ones that insist on getting close to him and knowing more about him throw him off. While he shows signs of wanting to open up to people on occasion, such as when talking to Keitaro after beating him in arm wrestling, he tends to shut down and avoid doing so by saying the situation is too frustrating or changing the subject entirely. Anyone who thanks him for his helps gets the classic "don't get the wrong idea" line. Compliments and affection? Those really get him annoyed, but not before he goes red in the face.

As noted by Keitaro early on though, there's more to Yoichi than him being a grumpy, hotheaded jerk. Beneath all this is a kind heart that he rarely ever shows except to those he's come to really trust. While his kindness is already evident in how he dips out of activities to take care of his dog and make sure she's happy, he's also shown to take part in more activities and be more open to ideas he would usually refuse to take part in thanks to growing closer to Keitaro. Even when not pursuing his route in the game, Yoichi becomes more open to hanging out with the other campers and will refer to them as his friends. His methods of supporting and helping others aren't always the best, but he does look out for his buddies and wants what is best for them. This is shown by Yoichi throwing Felix into the water at the beach as the latter found swimming to be an inconvenience. Yoichi throws him in the water as a means of showing you shouldn't avoid doing something just because it's a hassle, which Keitaro and Felix both pick up on. Grace and subtlety aren't his thing at all, but Yoichi does usually mean well when he helps others.

A fiercely protective person, Yoichi is normally the first to raise his fists as a solution to an issue and will happily offer to bring the fight to someone. If anyone dares stand up to his friends while he's around then he will be quick to put himself in the way and big himself up, even if the situation doesn't involve him. When Taiga shows up and insults everyone in Yoichi's cabin he jumps in and is ready to let fists fly. "Yeah, I know they're losers. But they're my losers!" He'll do what needs doing to protect the people he cares for, even if it means throwing himself under the bus to do it. He risks being expelled from camp to clear Keitaro's name, defending him from the allegations made against him and later carries him back to camp when the two run away and Keitaro becomes ill.

Finally, Yoichi isn't smart. He thinks only in the moment and rarely considers planning something or how he wants to approach a situation. When given large amounts of information he tends to gloss over everything and will tell people to quit using large words/technobabble when he can't understand something. While he usually gets called out for just acting on instinct he argues that at least he's doing something instead of just standing around. He can be motivating and give people the push to get going if no one is willing to take action and will do whatever it takes to get something done. It's just his methods tend to not always be the best. Like wanting to barge into an office full of people when he's trying to be sneaky.

POWERS/ABILITIES:
Yoichi is a normal human without any special abilities or powers. The only trait worth mentioning would be his sense of smell. He's able to remember the scents of people he's been close to as well as pick up on the location of someone by their smell alone. Additionally he can also tell when it is going to rain by the smell in the air.

INVENTORY:
Two badges earned during his time at camp, one for displaying incredible physical strength and another for learning CPR.

I would also like for Yoichi to have his pet dog Yuki. She's an average husky who, while initially wary of new faces, will quickly warm to anyone she has the time to get to know or be around long enough. So just like her owner really.

MOONBLESSING: Sanguis. I didn't choose the wolf life the wolf life chose me.
