Appearance
Akame is a big boy. Standing as a dark thick brute, at 134 pounds of fat, fur and muscle, he stands about 29 and a quarter at the tip of his shoulder. His dark face and eyes are wide and thick with the traditional pure-bred Akita look that is standard to his breed. Moving around to the side of his face, you'll note a series of white and gray gradients that blend into the black of his face and along his ears as the colors mix together into brown-tipped black hair.His neck is a mess of browns, blacks, whites and grays stirred together in a mochoa sable coat. His breast is a large splash of white that travels down the underside of his body down to his belly.
His fore-legs are thick and grown with white "socks" that extend to the base of his wrists. His shoulders are thick, with a span of 14 inches from one shoulder to the other, he's a thick monster. It is from this point that his coat shifts into the tawny black/brown standard to most American Akitas, featuring a blend of black-tipped brown fur to dark sable. The black mixes in with the brown where it occurs randomly throughout his belly area. His tail curls over his rear to the left side, where the blend of browns, whites, and blacks are complimented with a white soft tip. His thick hind-legs are monsterous, the rear of his haunches blended with a gradient that fades to white along the length of his hindquarters.
He has amber brown eyes and an understanding complexture that speaks of pride and the success of the hunt. A fine male speciman of his breed, he matches every point to the breed standard for the American Akita.
Personality & History
Proud · Capable · Caring · Selfless · Unyielding
Akama is a very
proud dog. He shows it in his form, his posture and even his body type. He's good looking and he knows it. He often carries about him an intimidating posture to prevent scraps with other dogs before they even happen. He usually holds his head high, and rather than walk, he struts, bringing his paws into a high-march. His ears are for the most part - always forward swept in a display of pride.
He can sometimes come off as a bit arrogant, declaring that he can overcome certain obsticles despite having any experience in doing them. He tends to have or reveal an exaggerated sense of his own importance and ability, often in times - making himself feel more important than what his actual role is.
He's
capable due to the fact that he wants to be an asset, cross-trained to fulfill multiple roles and serve the members of his gang. Capable of both defending, leading, and hunting, Akame is a multi-rolled dog willing to do anything and everything to serve the needs of others and become that one idol that is both well-deserving of their respect and their thanks. If one is hurt, he will have no issues of leaving the yard in search of medical supplies. If the yard requires a sentry, he will gladly place himself like a stone wall before any adversary. He will defend the young against any threat, and be the one that passes on knowledge and educate others. He's not afraid to make a distraction against the adversary, built like a tank, he know's he can take a beating, and will give the others the chance to get into position to sink their fangs into something vital while allowing the adversary to focus on him.
Akame is a
Caring dog, affectionate and
selfless in the fact that he will serve others before he serves himself. His ability to love and care for others can be drawn out that he will allow most to eat before him, he will hunt prey for those that cannot hunt themselves. He will often provide food for those that are young or in lower ranks should he feel that they're not getting enough. He would never leave a fallen companion behind, and would betray his comrads should the opposite come up with a better deal.
He cares for those that he's loyal to, his goal is to come home with the same holes that he was born with, and that goes to his friends and companions as well. His bond to his family is strong, but his ability to love and care for others is even stronger. He generally shows his more caring side when he's with those that are much younger him, looking out for them when they least expect it, keeping a distance as to not invade their sense of privacy.
He's
unyielding in the fashion that he will accept nothing less than success and absolutely refuses to accept failure. He always believes that there's a possibility that even though the goal was missed, that there's always a possibility that it can turn into a success with the correct amount of improvisation and compromise.
Often time, he can be seen with the younger crowd, he usually prefer's female company and seldomly does he get alone with males, in fact - he usually finds himself challenging them in whichever way he can. He tends to pull pranks on others, particularly those that are higher up in him just to see what it takes to
make them tick. He's not afraid of punishment from others, his hide his thick, and his fur even thicker, he welcomes their bite and if it breaks through the coat of fur -only then are they worthy of his respect and his loyalty.
Sometimes he can be a challenge to other males of hierchy, seeing everything as a challenge before him. He is highly competitive in almost every aspect of one's life, and also very thick-minded. As a fighter, he will show unsurmounted loyalty if you make him bleed a little, as this will pass unto him as a symbol of strength. If you make him bleed, he'll respect you. Due to his thick coat and the hide that coat is bound to, this can also be quite a difficult challenge for some, and is also where his arrogance and challenging nature can be difficult for some. He will flat out challenge others to a fight if he feels that they are weaker than him. - Especially if they are male.
History
Akame is a large hunting dog who's strength, size, and loyalty - all were taken advantage of by his master, Marcus. He and his siblings had been used to bring down medium and large sized game indiscriminately with their master, no mater the risk and no matter the possible injury, and in some cases - poaching was committed throughout the course of their lives.
Like his sister, Kaiyou - he too began to develop an aggressive streak at 14 months due to the treatment he endured with his master. It was at 3 years, that when his sister was taken with his master along with his rifle, that he knew something was off. He was able to detect the menacing nature of the man and could only anticipate that something terrible was bound to happen. When Marcus failed to return with Kaiyou his worse fears were confirmed when kaiyou was no longer among the yard, and thus began a rebellious streak with him and his master, where he was succumbed to many beatings that left him battered and broken.
Having lost the respect of his master and no longer finding reason to remain loyal to him, Akame had set out in search of his sister on November 14th, turning his back on the life that he once lived and using his nature as a hunting hound to survive in the streets of the city, where he adjusted quickly to the way things were and how they would continue to be.
Presently, at age 4 -he seeks his sister to either find her living, or her corpse to seek closure for the one that had shared his life and his hardships with.
Strengths & Weaknesses
Strength: He's got an extra thick body with a heavy-weight body style. As a bear-dog, very much stronger than most, and not afraid to show it either. | Impatient Akame doesn't spare time to negotiate, he believes in quick, precise action, and that's what he's best at. He's a muscle ready for the repetition, and the very blade that would cut the head off of the viper - before it had a chance to strike. |
Quick Thinker: Akame is a quick thinker in the fact that he's able to articulate his next move very swiftly. When to attack and when to evade come second nature to him, and his prone to executing it without any trouble or hesitation.
| Hard at Hearing Akame is actually hard at hearing. His left ear is damage to the muzzle flash of his master's shotgun when the weapon discharged adjacent to his face. The report of the weapon has caused hearing damage to his right ear, which occasionally rings from time to time. He may not catch everything that you're trying to tell him.
|
Familiar with the Land: His human master had been taking him out throughout the wildlands, the city and the outreaches his whole life. Akame has the entire city mapped out with his scent markers and is quite knowledgeable of it's surrounding areas.
| Very Large Akame is very large, so don't expect him to be able to hide when the situation calls for it. He'll easily expose your position, and in that case, if you're hiding from a rival gang, better be ready to go for the attack, because he's going to be about 40 paces ahead of you. |
Stamina Like his sister, he's been conditioned for high stamina through constant and daily exercise to retain his form and his figure. He can run and engage in strenious acrobatics for quite some time.
| Over-Confident - Akame can be seen as over-confident in the fact that he believes he can do anything! From single-handedly taking down a moose (don't dare him, he'll actually try) -this will endanger himself, and quite possibly - anyone nearby present to watch the show |
