MAIN CHARACTERS

NAME: Hisoka

Profession: Hunter, Magician

Nen: Transmuter

Age: 28-29

Bio: Once perpetually bored and disappointed by his inability to meet up with Kuroro after the man regained his Nen, Hisoka is now travelling with the young hunter Gon Freecss. Initially he'd forced him to stay at his side with the hopes of winning his trust. His intention was to win Gon over so that he'd surrender his body to him; but little by little Gon's charm grew on him and eventually Hisoka finds himself realizing why he'd always been fiercely protective and possessive of the young man in the past.

Gon's brash, unpredictable personality suited his fickle, dangerous personna and where once he intended to discard him after using him, he finds himself now enjoying his company. But there is something dark looming in the background, something from Hisoka's mysterious past that threatens to change everything that both he and Gon have come to know. Will Hisoka allow that to happen? And what connection does that have to Illumi and Killua?

NAME: Gon Freecss

Profession: Rookie Hunter

Age: 14-15

(Former) Nen Type: Enhancer

Bio:

A loyal friend, Gon Freecss (son of Archaeological / Ruins Hunter Ging Freecss), would do his best to help out those around him and would even go as far as to sacrifice his life for a special friend. He is the best friend of Killua Zoldyck, who, aware of his friend's tendency to be a thrill seeker, fiercely protects him.

Despite this, Gon is very stubborn and having always been attracted to and enticed by danger, becomes enamored with the dangerous, unpredictable Hisoka - a mysterious, fearful man who he is sure none of his friends would approve of. And instead of running away when he is easily able to escape him, Gon continues to keep his company at the risk of his friends finding out the full extent of their relationship. Is it simply Stockholm's syndrome or is Gon starting to fall in love with him? And without his Nen, what value does Hisoka see in taking Gon along with him on this dangerous mission? What are his intentions?

NAME: Illumi

Profession: Assassin, Hunter

Age: 24-25

Bio: Skilled assassin from the Zoldyck family and Killua's eldest brother, he shares a somewhat friendly relationship with Hisoka who is also his ex-boyfriend. Illumi, as Killua's eldest brother once held the responsibility of supervising his training, homeschooling him and taking on disciplinarian duties. He took this responsibility seriously, harshly testing, training and disciplining him much more than any of his other siblings in an effort to turn Killua into the type of heir the Zoldycks needed.

All of this, as well as the fact that Illumi once threatened Gon and Alluka has left Killua embittered toward him. Illumi does not let that discourage him though, and takes advantage of the fact that Killua had agreed to travel with him, to get closer to him now that he no longer has the responsibility of acting as his teacher or disciplinarian. But Illumi has always favored Killua and now as he tries to win over Killua's trust, it's obvious that his intentions are romantic in nature even though they are related. How will Killua respond when he learns of this? And what secrets are lurking in Illumi's past that not even he knows of?

NAME: Killua

Profession: Assassin, Rookie Hunter

Age: 14-15

Bio: Heir to the Zoldyck family of assassins and an extremely skilled assassin himself, Killua is the best friend of Gon Freecss and second younger brother of Illumi Zoldyck. He spent a year away from his best friend to travel with his sister Alluka. After that year apart, he's reunited with his friend and though excited to finally be back together again, he senses that Gon is hiding something from him and seeks to learn the truth.

Meanwhile, he's in York Shin with his older brother Illumi Zoldyck on an assassination job. He only accepted this job because:

1) of an agreement made with his father and Illumi for Alluka's well-being and

2) the individual in question posed a major threat to the citizenry there.

While staying with his brother in their apartment awaiting the instructions from their employer to carry out the job, he realizes that Illumi is not reacting the way that he anticipated him to. Instead of proving to be fake and villainous as he's always seen him, his brother is giving him more reasons to trust him and less to hate him.

What will Killua do now that he's beginning to feel less apathetic towards Illumi?

XXX

NAME: Dawn Takeshita

Profession: Administrative Secretary

Age: 30-31

Note: Dawn Takeshita is a civilian and a non-Nen User. She is considered to be a 'coward' by Arashi who barely tolerates her.

Bio: Currently working as Arashi's new assistant, Dawn is a qualified archaeologist but that is a career she believes is all in the past - along with all the secrets she claims are part of another life. These days she uses her knowledge as a hobby to appraise items at various auctions whenever she has the time and to assist Arashi.

NAME: Dawn Weekes

Profession: Blacklist Hunter/ Investigator

Age: 30

Bio: Dawn is a Blacklist Hunter, Detective Sergeant and Nicholas Takahashi's friend. She is one of the Lead Investigators on the serial killer case. Also works with Arashi Hashira at Hashira Corp's headquarters in YorkShin City.

She is actually a canon character who made a short cameo in the HxH series but I gave her a bit more personality and a bigger role than in canon and I've been keeping her identity a secret so as not to spoil too much. All will be revealed in Book 3 of UxD!

She knows Nick, Gon and Ging. She is also very familiar with Hisoka and respects his abilities but does not trust him.

FUN FACT: Hisoka's nickname for her is 99% because of her power potential.

NAME: Nicholas Takahashi

Profession: Blacklist Hunter/ Investigator

Age: 31

Bio: A Blacklist Hunter and Detective Lieutenant that works with the local police. Recently transferred to YorkShin. Is extremely popular with the public and considered by some to be a 'celebrity cop' but is blind to this as he is always busy.

Personally knows Ging...and claims to 'hate him'. Is familiar with Gon and Hisoka. Is not fond of Hisoka as Hisoka is an unrepentant killer and also because Hisoka always intentionally frustrates him whenever he sees him.

Appears to be angry all the time but is just sexually frustrated bogged down with a lot of work, responsibilities and the stress of tracking an 'organized serial killer' for the past 8 years.

(^^^excerpt from Wikipedia)

Is almost always in the presence of his colleague, Dawn Weekes--a female sergeant in the Y.S.P.D. He is also Dawn's best friend and sense of reason whenever she acts recklessly but unfortunately, Dawn never listens to him. To those he interacts with on the job, he is a diligent worker and even though his rainbow blue hair makes him stand out, he is not to be taken lightly.

NAME: Hirano Katocha

Profession: Hunter / Detective Constable/ Tech support (Y.S.I.D.)

Age: 17

Bio:
Works with the local police as one of six Trainees that was sent from the Association to work with Nick and Dawn.

2) He is a fanboy who hides the fact that he loves to read yaoi and play otome games in his spare time...
