Character: Hidari Shoutarou
Series:
Kamen Rider W (Double)Age: early 20s
Job: Camp Private Investigator
Canon: In the windy city of Fuuto, devices resembling USB Drives called GaiaMemories are being distributed on the black market. A person who uses a GaiaMemory becomes a monster called a 'Dopant' and becomes powerful enough to cause complete chaos. However, private detective Hidari Shoutarou and his mysterious young partner Philip protect the city from these Dopants, working together as one detective and also as one hero; transforming together into Kamen Rider W.
The literal body of the operation, Shoutarou wants to be everyone's textbook hard-boiled detective; suave, infallible and unswayed no matter the situation. He even goes as far as to think in internal monologues. Unfortunately, Shoutarou doesn't really fit the hard-boiled bill. Instead he's loud, short-tempered and driven largely by impulse - leading to his own partner coining his much-loathed nickname of 'half-boiled'. That doesn't stop him from trying and succeeding at actually being a detective; he's fairly smart and has a knack for info-gathering. Shoutarou empathises easily with others and wears his heart on his sleeve, in contrasting companionship with his partner's almost pure logic. With his late mentor’s wills in his heart and hats on his head, he takes their jobs both as a detective and a Rider very seriously and always puts the good of his city and his comrades first, even above his own life.
Sample Post: Summer camp. A seemingly innocent place, but underneath that projection of childish fun times and laughter is a murderous plot so terrible that I was called here to help solve it. The director, Sayre-san, obviously has good taste; able to find someone such as me even when she must be grieving over her lo--
--hey, don't interrupt a guy when he's concentrating! You've been groaning in my ear for about a minute, what do you want? Can't you see I'm busy scouting the area? It's an essential part of my job, you know, and if I don't get it done it'll be on your... not your head, since most of that seems to be missing. Most of you seems to be missing. And to think, some people have the gall to call me half a man, when there’s specimens like you around... Look, if you have a case, I’ll put you on the waiting list, but Sayre-san’s situation is taking maximum priority right-- what? ...I see, you’re looking for brains? Well, sorry, I haven’t got any brains.
Oi, let go! This detective has a hard job to do, so if that’s all you’re going to ask, save it for later... agh, not that kind of hard, you-! A man among men lifestyle, that’s what it is to be hard-boi-- let me finish! It’s completely different, not what you were saying anyway. My hard-boiled lifestyle is nothing crude like that at all, so stop- touching- hands off the hat! You’re sure persistent about getting your own case looked at, but clinging to me like that isn’t going to make it happen any faster.
--Hey! You waste my time grabbing me like that and now you’re just wandering off?! It’s too bad that nobody around here seems to have any brains at all, but if you don’t want my help, don’t bother me about it!
