(( WRITTEN DESCRIPTION ))
at first glance, crow is a fairly typical looking young man, which people often mistake for someone much younger or much older than his actual age. he possesses easily tanned skin, due to his mediterranean origins, peppered with light freckles and contrastingly dark raven hair. crow also stands at a relatively average 5'10", but has quite a surprisingly strong build by nature, building muscle almost effortlessly. his hair is usually quite well kept; routinely brushed and washed with conditioner, and often seen in a short ponytail, so as to keep it from getting in the way and falling into his pale blue eyes. although he doesn't like to admit it, crow also keeps his hair up so as to avoid disapproving and scornful comments on his choice of cut, from his cousin octavia.
crow takes his appearance quite seriously; to him there's a place for everything and everything should be in its place. although he doesn't take it to narcissistic levels, the young man prides himself on putting together a complementing outfit when the situation demands it. crow also takes great care with his assassin's gear, making sure that all is in order. you've got to make a good impression whatever the special occasion, most of all when carrying out an assassination, right? right. likes to think that the last image his target will remember is his suave self~

(( PERSOANLITY ))
positive personality traits.
adaptable ★ despite being someone who obsesses over planning and schedules, crow adjusts to new situations with ease and can be ready at a moment's notice, relatively unshaken by a change of plans - unless it's reckless because lord knows he doesn't want to see anyone get hurt.
responsible ★ crow is the kind of person you could count on, be it with the simple task of keeping something safe for you, getting a job done on time or keeping secrets. he is also quite mature for his age and sometimes finds it hard to socialise with those younger and less mature than himself.
meticulous ★ borderline with perfectionism, crow likes to do things right and well, and down to every last little detail he can possibly see; crow never overlooks anything, within reason of course, and always takes diligent care with any task he his undertaking.
down to earth ★ practical and with a realist outlook on life, crow isn't one seen daydreaming or fantasising about things to come. he keeps his expectations low, so as not to get disappointed, and looks at things pragmatically and some would say in an almost cold and detached fashion.
caring to a fault ★ despite his down to earth trait and not one to get overly attached to people, crow worries himself excessively over the wellbeing of those he is close to, even though he won't necessarily admit it. for him, the needs of others come before his own.
neutral personality traits.
realistic ★ as aforementioned, crow looks at things without high expectations and with a measured and calm eye.
curious ★ naturally inquisitive, crow is always interested to find out more about something or discover a new place. however, this clashes with his more organised self and has caused him to end up in many undesirable situations.
introvert ★ far from being shy, in fact, he enjoys people's company, however crow is just as content with his own company. he doesn't easily feel lonely, nor really miss friends when they're apart and feels quite comfortable in his own skin. if he had to chose between a crowded party and night to himself with a good book and a cup of tea, he would go with the latter almost every time.
witty ★ having always had a nack and love for puzzles, crow is able to come up with solutions rather easily. his wittiness also extends itself to frequent sarcastic and sassy remarks and totally not smooth comebacks.
negative personality traits.
stubborn ★ although rarely arrogantly so, crow sticks by his decisions, and isn't easily persuaded or manipulated by others and this sometimes gets in the way of making a sensible decision.
skeptical ★ crow isn't the gullible type and prefers to check facts before taking people's word as truth. it would be a stretch to call him untrustworthy but, he just isn't easily convinced.
restless ★ his restlessness and fidgety nature is not to be confused with anxiety or nerves; crow just has a need to be constantly active, whether it is the most silly of 'tasks' like ordering coloured pens in the order of the rainbow please tell me i'm not the only one, or training to be an assassin, he just loves to keep busy.
over analytical + critical ★ susceptible to overthinking things to the point where they no longer make sense and getting himself stuck in a seemingly never-ending cycle of trying to notice details and predict impossible variables. crow is as critical with himself as he is towards others, if not more much of the time, although not because he enjoys putting people down or finding fault in them, neither does he like to complain. it's just the skeptical perfectionist in him that want things to be right, so he criticises things simply because they displease him.

(( HISTORY )) crow never got to meet his mother, who died during childbirth, and his father went to join her when he was aged just ten. in spite of losing his parents so young, he holds blurry yet fond memories of his father; a great steadfast man who instilled in him the basic skills of an assassin.
soon after, he was adopted and raised by an adoring and doting aunt, the sister of his late father. crow was forever showered with kindness and patience but, always felt a little out of place, like he didn't belong. there was a whole in his heart; he missed his hometown and father dearly. this feeling of loss rekindled his interest in assassination skills and a family tradition passed on for generations, not normal for a teenager i know. from then on, crow has been refining his skills and considerably augmented his mastery in the profession.
(( FROM )) luca, italy

(( DREAMS ))
★ graduate from ansatsu shimasu academy and find the love of his life
★ carry on the solomon legacy
★ become renowned, respected and reputable in the assassin community
(( FEARS ))
★ ending up truly alone with no one to turn to (especially losing octavia) / dying alone / being forgotten
★ even though it goes against his rational personality, crow suffers from, at times, crippling phonophobia ((fear of loud noises)), as it reminds him of the time he spent in the foster/care home, whilst waiting to be adopted, with the other, often aggressively rowdy kids.
★ failing to graduate from the academy and making a fool of himself; crow wouldn't be able to stand the shame.
(( TALENTS ))
bōjutsu ★ unassuming and elegant in its simplicity, bōjutsu is the japanese martial art of wielding the bō; a very tall wooden staff, typically around 1.8 metres in length. crow incorporates bōjutsu with karate techniques, following the philosophy that the bō is merely an 'extension of one's limbs'. for added lethality, the staff can be made with metal ends or spikes, perfect for impaling an opponent or target. if you see crow with what resembles a 'long stick', you might not want to underestimate him.
hidden blades ★ although he uses the bō as a primary weapon to fight with, crow prefers a more silent and lightweight weapon during assassinations. hidden carefully on his wrists and triggered easily with a swift tilt of the hand, the small but deathly sharp blades can pierce flesh, although not bone, with ease.
