Hanao Ebisu

Birthday: December 12 Height: 130 cm Likes: Ramen, chinese buns (particularly with meat filling), taiyaki sweet waffle, takoyaki octopus balls, okonomiyaki japanese pancake. Dislikes: Angry Goryo, cramped spaces, high places Talents: Assisting in Goryo's personal affairs (so he thinks, though so does everyone else in the Goryo Group) this includes: preparing clothes and dressing, scheduling, driving, arranging meals. Early riser (doesn't need an alarm clock) Judge of magic law. Goryo's assistant. An experienced and skilled practitioner and assistant, but pales in comparison against other judges when on his own. As a child, Ebisu was alone. Without any parents, he was shuffled from orphanage to orphanage and picked on by other children. Eventually, he became fed up and ran away. He took to stealing, breaking and entering, shoplifting, purse-snatching, and etc. to survive. He also abused his skills as a spiritual medium to summon ghosts to assist him in his crimes. One day, his luck ran out. Magic law practitioners had been waiting where he sent the ghost, and the ghost took revenge by draining Ebisu's tempering to almost nothing. He lay in a gutter for two days, drifting in and out of consciousness, when Goryo came and rescued him with a tempering injection, saying, "If you're going to throw your life away, why not use it for me?" Ebisu awoke several days later at the Goryo residence, and became Goryo's assistant. While Goryo treats Ebisu horribly, with less respect than one would warrant even an animal, Ebisu doesn't seem to mind terribly. He has a deep-seated need to feel valued and needed, and as Goryo's assistant can do his best to garner Goryo's appreciation. Even after Goryo fires him for failing to execute a difficult maneuver, Ebisu knows it was for the good of the group--he'll do whatever it takes to please his master, even if it means removing himself from the picture. To anyone other than Goryo, however, Ebisu is callous, lewd, and crass. He's incredibly condescending and seems to go out of his way to show off his status and offend people. He's not averse to getting his hands dirty to accomplish a job, even planning to drain an innocent's tempering to further his goals. Ebisu was severely injured in his attempts to rescue Goryo from Tomas, but remains unshakably loyal. He becomes Goryo's assistant once again after the ordeal is over.
