Character Traits
Date of Birth: January 7th, 8AV
Species: Human
Hometown: Born in Vacuo, but has lived in most every major city at least once.
Romantic Orientation: Ambiguous
Hair Color/Style: Dark brown cut long and meticulously styled with a single braid running down over his left ear.
Eye Color: Yellow
Aura Color: Gold
Height: 180cm
Weight: 71kg
Appearance: A vain, dark-skinned young man with eyes of the sun. He carries himself with the baring of a desert prince with an amused smile coming easily to this young man of wealth and privilege. His hair is styled for him every morning and servants dress him in finely embroidered clothes. His skin is flawless and he puts in a lot of effort to keep him that way. His nails are even painted and manicured.
Personality: If one word could ever be used to describe Devaraja, it would be Arrogance. He is confident in his own talents and secure in his belief that he will always be on the top of the world. He is vain, overly particular about his appearance and has spared no expense to ensure that the version of himself displayed to the public is the greatest one he wants others to see. He is a glory hound who seeks the approval and praise of others, his desire to be lauded as a hero the reason he gives for why he decided to become a Hunter. All-in-all, his life in high society has left him out of touch with the struggles of the common man around him.
While his vices are readily apparent, his virtues are not quite so obvious. He is driven to succeed in life, focused in what he wants and willing to put in the time and effort to seize it. He is charming and affable, allowing him to get along with others well. He will throw his money around at the drop of a hat, and while it could be viewed as him rewarding any sycophants that follow him, he has an earnest kindness that leaks out in a willingness to help most anyone. His detached approach of using money shows that while he may want to help, he does not understand well enough to really offer a solution.
Devaraja's efforts to look and act as perfect as can be stem from feelings of deep seated inadequacy towards his oldest siblings. His station as the fifth and youngest son means he will never inherit the family fortune and will always play second fiddle to his brothers. Deep inside he feels as if without his money he has nothing about him, and would be deeply hurt if ever he found out he could not make it as a Hunter.

Biography
History
Born in 8AV, Devaraja is the fifth son of Arun Kaala. His father was once the owner of multiple hotels, but took advantage of the low market prices and post-war economic miracle of the Great War to become a fabulously wealthy real estate tycoon with properties all over the world. As such, Devaraja grew up in the lap of luxury. He was educated by private tutors and drilled in social etiquette at a young age and forced to travel the world with his family often. While he was expected to act a certain way and always obey his Father, as the fifth son the lack of future expectations to inherit the family fortune meant leeway was allowed towards him that his older brothers were not granted such as: more free time, a higher tolerance for poor performance in lessons, forgiveness in minor breeches in etiquette, over-familiarity with staff, and a less-restrictive curfew. This meant that he did not shine academically, but did learn to make connections outside of the family.
This situation also gave him a strained relationship with his brothers. The older brothers felt jealous that Devaraja did not go through the strict upbringing they experienced, while Devaraja felt like an afterthought in his Fathers eyes and blamed his brothers for being older and thus more important than him. These feelings never extended to overt bullying, but the isolation Devaraja felt then still influences him today.
His family grew older over time, and as they did he saw them less and less, only seeing them for dinner parties where he heard new tales of their exploits and successes in the business world. His Father and Mother were always too busy to spend time with him, and anything he excelled at would not get the same recognition as his older brothers. That is when he got the idea to become a Hunter, a path in life radically different from everyone else that could potentially make his family proud enough to look at him with the respect he craved.
Hiring tutors was a simple task for this wealthy family, and his lack of importance meant he suffered no resistance towards deciding this dangerous career path. He was trained in the bow and his semblance was unlocked through rigorous training. He worked hard to become a warrior, far harder than he or anyone else ever expected that he would. The desperation to distinguish himself earned him his recommendation to Haven Academy where for the first time in his life he lives among the masses without his status as a social barrier between them.
