Character: Hibiki Kohaku
Age: Early to mid 20s
Canon: BlazBlue
Canon Point: Post Centralfiction

Background: Hibiki @ wiki

Personality:

Hibiki Kohaku, mostly known as Kagura Mutsuki’s right hand, is a person who’s incredibly loyal and who will get the work done in one way or another, as soon as it’s possible. At first glance, his loyalty towards Kagura defines him the most as a character since most of the time he’s shown while he’s carrying out various errands for his superior—starting with cooking through paperwork to missions that often require to be done fast and quiet (for instance, bringing Jin Kisaragi to Mutsuki’s office in Ibukido). While he’s not an utterly docile secretary and often gives snarky comments on Kagura’s behavior (usually when his boss is somewhere nearby, of course), Hibiki deeply admires him despite his faults and is honored to be of a help for the head of the Mutsuki family.

Or that’s what he thought before his meeting with Nine in his arcade mode, at least. His shock upon seeing the vision of him assassinating the person he’s working for is no act and, to some extent, he’s disgusted that she’s using such illusions. However, as the time goes by, Hibiki begins to question himself—he was trained to be an assassin and yet he ended up walking a completely different path, after all. It only shows how absorbed he is with his work, or more generally, in everything else but himself. All this time, he’s been thinking that his wish is the same as Kagura’s, but a complete outsider manages to prove him wrong and sows the seeds of doubt. Repressing his feelings and thoughts leads him to ignoring Kagura’s orders even though Hibiki believes he’s acting accordingly to his superior’s will. In the end, Hibiki doesn’t get the chance to make his wish come true, so whether his admiration for Kagura is fake or not remains unresolved. Given his rather emotional reactions to other people who suggested that he wishes to kill his superior, there’s a chance that he wouldn’t follow his own dream, even though he can't exactly deny its existence.

That said, generally, Hibiki is anything but impetuous. Stoic at all times, he rarely snaps at other people for no reason (and when he does, expect the person to be hammered with his critique), but he happens to be surrounded by rather sloppy people who can’t get their job done in a timely manner. Actually, he’s even said to be “the only reason any NOL admin work gets done in the city of Ibukido”, which speaks for itself. It doesn’t mean, however, that he doesn’t slip various critical remarks into the conversations. To be quite honest, he does that a lot, and even though they’re rather subtle most of the times, it doesn’t take a genius to catch up with what he meant.

At the same time, Hibiki can be really polite which is shown in the honorific language he uses and, obviously, in his behavior. He knows his place as a secretary and a captain of NOL and on top of that, he’s also the type to follow procedures no matter what. Because of that, he’s strict towards others and won’t let private matters diffuse into work, which, to his dismay, his superior does at least once a day.

In conclusion, Hibiki is a character of many contradictions, especially if we take his relationship with Kagura Mutsuki into account. He’s both loyal to Kagura and yet there seems to be a seething murder intent hidden within him which is undoubtedly connected to his past and his training as an assassin. Most of the time, he remains silent and collected, although he doesn’t refrain from belittling the people who don’t carry out their duties as they’re expected to.

Abilities:

• Drive: Double Chase
  Hibiki's drive allows him to create a shadow clone of himself and to exchange positions with said clone.
  
• Overdrive: Schwarz Reis
  Once the overdrive is activated, the movement speed of the clones increases.
  
• Stealth
  Trained in arts of stealth and assassination, Hibiki can sneak up to someone completely unseen.
  
• Combat skills
  Hibiki is a skilled fighter whose weapons of choice are cutter-like dual swords. Here is an overview of his various attacks in-game.

Alignment: Piphron; his most defining trait is his loyalty to Kagura. His arcade mode in Centralfiction shows that his hidden desire might be to kill the man he is serving, and while it's not confirmed whether it's true or not in-game, it makes Hibiki doubt himself on various occassions.
Other: If possible, he'll arrive with his round crow and his twin swords.
