Personality
+ Positive
Charismatic - Confident - Adaptable - Observant
↳ Keigo's good looks and fascinating persona make for quite the charismatic character. After being abandoned by his absent single father and all but raising himself, Keigo turned to a small street gang for guidance. His time spent as a fence and serial con-artist for the gang gave him a keen sense of people’s intentions, he is confident and quick-witted especially when it comes to skirting the truth for his own benefit. With the way situations can change in an instant on the street, Keigo is adaptable and level-headed under stressful conditions. He is observant almost to a fault and tries to always keep one step ahead if he can help it.

= Neutral
Persistent - Resourceful - Daring
↳ To live a life beyond the law requires a great deal of resourcefulness. Keigo indulges his whims with schemes put together on the fly and tries to manipulate situations to his benefit. He is resourceful when it comes to situations gone awry, often keeping a level head even when an unfortunate turn of events occur. He is persistent in his methods, if you don’t succeed then try again, and again, and again until you get what you want. His daring nature often manifests as jokes at inopportune times, but he won’t shy away from throwing his life in harm’s way if it means getting what he wants. If Keigo lets you in, his personality is a lot more subdued than he appears at first. He is generally a calm person and is known to crack some pretty good jokes.

- Negative
Reckless - Distrustful - Self-conscious - Stubborn
↳ While Keigo is charming, he is not quick to truly open up and prefers to isolate himself. He often pushes his charismatic persona a little too far and can come off as stubborn when things don’t go his way, though he definitely does think highly of himself even under the persona. Whether he recognizes the consequences or not, once he’s set his mind to something he is reckless in pursuit of his goals. After a childhood plagued with relentless bullying and bad 'friends', Keigo is distrustful and often finds himself psychoanalyzing every single action to the point of self-isolation. It's easier to believe everyone has bad intentions than to admit you're the one with the wrong outlook. While Keigo may look put together and carefree, he is self-conscious and obsesses over how people perceive him. This has made him a good con artist but isn't so great for long-term relationships.
