The Past

Main Traits: Loyal, Courageous, Humorous/Jokester, Flashy

Likes: Loyalty, Dedication, Unyielding Faith, Courage, Sparring, Jokes, Being Flashy
Dislikes: Retreat, Senseless Murder, Fear, Being too Serious, No Sense of Humor
Unique laugh: "Gegyagyagyagya!"

Hometown: Artor Port of Ilusia Island
Personality: Naraku is a light-hearted and socialable man, often making jokes at his own expense in order bring humor to those he meets. He often tends to act selfish or smug to people he meets, though this is more of a tactic to rile up people so he can knock them down with his humor. He enjoys being eccentric and flashy with his introductions both on and off the battlefield, often leaving a imprerssion on everyone he meets be it friend or foe. Naraku is also a self proclaimed 'Super-Perv' and is often caught in compromising situations, such as peeping or making outright statements on a woman's physique. It often can be a source of weakness, however he has learned to see through most acts that would otherwise enthrall him.

Despite his goofy and eccentric personality, Naraku is entirely different in combat. When in combat with a friend he often keeps his flashy style of combat, or his humor in order to help differentiate them form foes. However, when in combat with a true enemy Naraku is very serious and will often cast aside his normal personality for a calm and focused composure. This leads to him coming up with plans of attack and defense as quickly as possible while in the midst of combat, he also loses that part of the brain that tells a man to run becoming determined to die or win regardless of the opponent. In the event a foe endangers a comrade or his dreams, Naraku will be filled with rage which often cause him to push a heavier offensive onslaught instead of atempting to be a reserved combatant.

Normally, when I'm approving bios, I only comment if there are missing fields or if something in the bio (especially the history) conflicts with the lore of the site. But, since you had specifically requested comments, I will provide some.

+ There are many traits mentioned in Naraku's personality that could benefit from some sort of justification through the history section. Brief glimpses into how he developed some of these traits would go a long way towards making the personality believable.
+ While I was perusing Naraku's personality, I noticed you tend to re-use certain non-operative words a little too much at times. For example, you used "often" eight times in the span of two paragraphs. This stands out especially when repeated uses of words are in close proximity to one another. Like the use of "he meets" - it re-occurs in each of the first three sentences of the first paragraph.
+ Overall, I think your bio was well-written. The character itself didn't strike me as very interesting, but, the solid writing makes up for that. There's plenty of room for you to deepen the character once you start RPing.

The above comments are ones that I would skip over when normally approving a bio. However, there is one comment which I need you to address before I can approve this:
+ In your history, you wrote "The Admiral has never paid me a beli". I need you to replace this with "The Marines have never paid me a beli". Mentioning an Impie (Important Character) title in your history is generally not allowed, and it especially does not make sense in this scenario.
