Character: Saitou Hajime
Series: Hakuouki Shinsengumi Kitan
Character Age: ~23
Job: Safety Officer
Canon: Hakuouki is what happens when you combine slice of life historical fiction with supernatural action and rather cliche shoujo tropes, centering around the Shinsengumi in a reverse harem situation. The protagonist is Yukimura Chizuru, a young girl from Edo who has gone to Kyoto in search of her missing father. One night as she wanders the streets alone she is attacked by a blood thirsty, demonic swordsman, but is saved by three members of the Shinsengumi. The first on the scene is leader of the third squadron, Saitou Hajime.
In any harem series, certain stock character types need to be filled, and in Hakuoki, Saitou is the quiet one. Honor and duty are important to him, and his manner tends toward formal and polite, if somewhat curt. Initially his taciturn nature makes him seem cold and aloof, but it quickly becomes apparent that he is one of the most loyal and compassionate members of the group. He is serious and diligent, but he cares a great deal about those around him. He doesn't usually express his concern in a direct way, but he is often the one most likely to sympathize with Chizuru when she's worried. And if someone's ass needs saving, there's a good chance Saitou will be among the first there to back them up.
Sample Post:
Good afternoon. As of today, I am the new safety officer for this encampment. Please do not misunderstand. It is not my duty to protect you, but to ensure the safety of the grounds so that the residents may be better equipped to protect themselves. It is important that we all do our part. Of course, I realize that the population here is quite varied, and some are more capable of handling such tasks than others. Young children and the ill or otherwise infirm should seek refuge or stay behind those better equipped to deal with danger. I am told it is not uncommon for people to turn into kittens here. This would be another example of a time when it would be wiser to allow others to help you. Your deaths would be inconvenient, so be careful.
It seems there was an incident a few months ago that your Director wishes to avoid repeating. Her orders are as follows: “certify Camp is meeting basic safety standards and that it is fortified against threats such as invasions of mutants, rabid cows, sentient farm equipment, bad karaoke and Justin Bieber.” It is noted that the last two items may or may not be related.
I have already made preliminary patrols for lapses in standard safety measures. Upon my arrival I immediately noticed the overabundance of corn. It is my opinion this could be hazardous. It would be very easy to get lost in the stalks or to fall and sustain a serious injury. It also obscures many of the buildings, making it difficult to seek out shelter. Moreover, it could be used against you by an enemy. For instance, while I am not sure what a Justin Beiber is, it could almost certainly walk behind the rows and ambush you from there. This should definitely be avoided. I will make a note of it in my report to make the director aware of the issue.
I have also found many of the camp's structures to be problematic. In addition to the issues with accessibility, there are several buildings that are in various states of disrepair. Nearly all the barns have holes in the roofs and are made of wood that has long since grown old and dried out. They are not in any way adequate for emergency shelter. However, they are actually a secondary concern when compared to the silo. The foundation is poor and the structure itself is dilapidated. The craftsmanship is completely substandard. Those issues combined with the fact that it appears to be the home of an enormous squid intent on forcing crude advances upon any other creature that passes by makes it dangerous and entirely unsuitable for children.
…Indeed, there are simply too many dangers present at this location. I must officially declare Camp Fuck You Die unsafe.
