A refreshing, prince-type elite salaryman actor...?
Chigasaki Itaru (茅ヶ崎至) is a well mannered elite company employee with a refreshing and gentle aura of an adult. He is trusted by his co-workers and superiors alike and even within the company he is treated like a real prince. However, this is merely his daytime visage, once his free time arrives he changes completely. After Izumi offered him a room for him alone to use, he agreed to join the Mankai Company.
Appearance
Itaru is a handsome man in his early twenties with dark blonde hair and small pink eyes. His clothing style is as different as his personality. In his professional appearance, he wears dark green pants in combination with a light blue shirt and white slip over above. Together with black leather shoes and a marine blue jacket. After his work is done he quickly changes into something more comfortable with gray sweatpants, a plain white T-shirt, and a yellow college jacket. Itaru also starts to care less about his appearance and wears his bangs up so they don't get in his way while he is gaming.
Personality
Whenever he is in professional mode, he is gentle and charming like a prince. He genuinely cares about others, but somewhat maintains his distance and likes to keep his private life to himself. The reason for this is, that his professional personality is, for the most part, merely a façade. His true personage is one of a passionate hardcore gamer and somewhat otaku. In this mode, he is not afraid to curse and be rude. Itaru also starts to get bit lazy and outright competitive.
History
Not much is known about Itaru's past. Before he joined Mankai he worked as a successful elite trading company and was quite popular within it. However, his only motivation to work hard was to finance his expensive hobby; gaming. To decrease his living expenses to save more money so he could later spend on games, he searched for a new cheaper room. Izumi found him looking at Bulletin Board on Velvet Way and he quickly agreed to join Mankai once the director assured him a room to himself, so he would not get disturbed while gaming.
