i. information

Some Insight characters are created by my IRL friends on request from me for Insight, due to their interest in my AU. All characters not fully created by me will have their owners credited in their character sheets. Ultimately, all characters’ plotlines and fates in Insight are created by me.

Student ID: Kaguya Hoshino

Name: Kaguya Hoshino(she/her)

Height: 161cm/5’3’’

Weight:  62kg/136.7lb

Blood Type: A

Date of Birth: 13 September

Sexuality: Grey-aroace

MBTI: INFP

Likes: Astronomy, Alt Rock

Dislikes: Pain, Conflict

Talent: Ultimate Guitarist

Kaguya is very quiet, though not due to a desire to not speak. She is self-conscious about her voice, as well as finding it uncomfortable to speak due to a past injury. She is deeply empathetic, and will try her best to help and comfort anyone in need. Additionally, despite not showing it often, she is very passionate about her likes, often displaying it in her playing even though she downplays her interests verbally(e.g. defaulting to songs about space). Kaguya lacks self confidence, thinking that her inability to speak or sing well affects how she is perceived by others. She will try to do what is right, as much as she can, but sometimes social anxiety can overcome this integrity. 

Appearance

Kaguya has shoulder-length messy brown hair, wearing it in a style that covers part of her right eye. Her eyes are grey-blue, and her skin is fair and unmarked, aside from a jagged scar on her neck.

She wears a tan seifuku with navy blue sleeves and collar. Under her collar is an orange neckerchief, and the hem of her seifuku is orange. On the upper right arm of her seifuku, a rectangular orange patch with a music note is sewn onto her seifuku. She has long, steel blue pants.

She frequently carries a guitar case around on her back. It is black and covered in various sewn-on patches, several of which depict astronomical bodies like the moon.

Fun Fact: Kaguya wishes to be able to sing, but thinks that being able to play guitar is just as good. She practices singing alone, but refuses to sing in front of crowds.

Student ID: Chisai Ekasan

Name: Chisai Ekasan(he/him)

Height: 155cm/5’1’’

Weight: 54kg/119lb

Blood Type: B+

Date of Birth: 11 Nov 

Sexuality: Bisexual 

MBTI: ESTP

Likes: Shiny things, lasers

Dislikes: Arrogant people, corruption

Talent: Ultimate Engineer 

Chisai is optimistic. He enjoys making jokes, and having light-hearted conversations with people. He also uses sarcasm excessively to deflect from various issues. He greatly enjoys creating, and always seeks to learn more in the field of engineering. Sometimes, however, in his desire to learn more, he will overcommit or bite off more than he can chew. He is not good at identifying his own burnout. Chisai will work himself to the bone all while pretending everything is fine, if he sees it necessary. 

Appearance

Chisai has messy black hair and naturally dark grey eyes. He wears a faded yellow t-shirt under an unbuttoned brown field jacket. Under that, he has an oversized toolbelt and denim shorts. Tools poke out of almost every pocket he has.

Several parts of his body are bionic. These include his left eye, which is red with a light grey metal sclera, and his right forearm, which is a metal prosthetic, resembling a block slightly thicker than a normal arm, covered in engravings and ending in a five-pronged claw. Most of his skin is covered with scars that are a weird silvery colour.

Fun Fact: Chisai is completely tone deaf, and knows nothing about music

voice claims pt 1!

yuki - qin shi huang(ragnarok)

i dont know ragnarok, this was recommended by yuki's creator, but i do really like it!

kaguya - mouse(the nightly manor)

i love love love LOVE tnm btw and i think if mouse was just a little bit softer it would fit kaguya PERFECTLY yes

kusuri - amelia/scenty(hfjONE)

amelia's too wholesome to be kusuri's voice delivery-wise, she would definitely be more cold, but voice-wise it fits pretty well!!

honami - liam/backpack(hfjONE)

i actually really like this voice claim! i think it fits pretty well!

Kusuri Hayashi is extremely antisocial. She prioritises her work above most other things, including human interaction. She is extremely good at what she does, being awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for solving the age-old problem of creating gold. She is disciplined and responsible, however, she prioritises things she deems important to herself, and will not aid in things she sees no benefit of. This can include introductions or interaction. Kusuri always has assorted chemicals on her for various situations. Her general apathetic view on life has led people to believe that she hates society. She is snappish and can be viewed as rude.

Appearance

Kusuri has dark purple hair with a long fringe, almost black, and black eyes. Her hair reaches just below her shoulders. She wears a brown collared shirt under a lab coat, and long dark blue pants. She wears boots under her pants. Two sleek leather gloves cover her hands.

Ayano is a pleasure-seeker. She’s pretty reckless, loving taking risks. Her mood is pretty unpredictable, day-by-day, though its not always easy to see. She is very good at controlling her true emotions. She loves donning the mask of other characters, to be able to embody them instead of herself. She is optimistic, and easily makes friends. Her motivation in most scenarios is pleasure, and she can and has made controversial or wrong decisions in order for instant gratification. She constantly seeks her own enjoyment, and as a result detests challenges and consequences.

Student ID: Momoku Nawarai

Name: Momoku Nawarai(she/her)

Height: 168cm/5’6’’

Weight: 58kg/127lb

Blood Type: AB

Date of Birth: 19 November

Sexuality: Aroace

MBTI: INFJ

Likes: Mental health disorders, diagnoses

Dislikes: Ableists, obstinate people

Talent: Ultimate Psychologist

Momoku’s head is in the clouds. She is extremely intelligent, though she seems to have a sense of apathy towards any circumstances happening around her. Despite this, however, she is curious about people, but does not have a good understanding of boundaries, asking them personal questions to diagnose them(without permission). She tends to be joyous, no matter how difficult the situation around her is, to a degree that could be called oblivion to her surroundings. However, she is very analytical, contrary to how she appears to others. 

Appearance

Momoku has red hair in twintails, and the edges of them are dyed pink. She has brown eyes, and white and black ribbons in her hair.

She wears a dark tan turtleneck under a long white blazer, and on her wrist is a rainbow friendship bracelet. Below that, she wears a white pencil skirt and black shoes.

The pockets of her blazer have seemingly random things, such as rubber bands or pens. 

Fun Fact: One of Momoku’s favourite hobbies is to stroll around parks and find people who appear lonely or sad, and talk to them unprompted. Surprisingly, her ability to find these people has been completely accurate, and everyone she has talked to has received diagnoses of mental health issues after therapy.

Student ID: Katsuo Suzuki

Name: Katsuo Suzuki(he/him)

Height: 180cm/6’0’’ 

Weight: 68kg/150lbs

Blood Type: AB

Date of Birth: 15 November

Sexuality: Bisexual

MBTI: ESFP

Likes: Anything fast, anything whimsical

Dislikes: Quiet spaces, deadlines

Talent: Ultimate Drummer

Katsuo is incredibly optimistic. He is excitable and easy-going, though he does not do the best in stressful situations. He tries to make everyone around him happy. He loves drumming as he sees it as a way that, despite not being in the spotlight, puts him in an important position to help others. He also likes to be loud. He tends to make decisions based on whatever brings him and everyone around him the most joy, therefore it is very easy to take advantage of his happy-go-lucky manner.

Appearance

Katsuo has hazel eyes and tousled light-brown hair. A streak of his hair is dyed red. He has freckles and dimples when he smiles.

One ear has two golden rings and a gold cross, while the other has a single silver stud. Around his neck is a black choker.

A red tie hangs loosely around his neck above a white tank top slightly too big for him. On top of it, he has a open pale yellow button-up shirt 

Below that, he has a black leather jacket tied around his waist over loose ripped jeans and combat boots.

Fun Fact: While speed is not necessarily an indicator of a drummer’s skills, Katsuo has the world record for fastest drummer, having a record highest 1300BPM single stroke roll
