Appearance: Ayato has black hair that he has styled in the latest fashion. He keeps his body in top condition. He models as well as a singer so he needs to keep in shape. In front of the public, he wears the latest European fashion for men and in private, he wears loose plain clothes and goes barefooted. His dark brown eyes hold most of his emotions and they swim with snowflakes when he feels strong emotions. He appears younger than his years.

Personality: Ayato is laid back and carefree on the surface. Underneath he is a serious and at times has a poor sense of humor.

History: Born into a powerful snow leopard clan. He has been trained to be the mate of the next queen of the clan. Ayato went to private schools and colleges in Korea, Japan and United Kingdom. During his studies, he discovered his love of music and plays the piano and violin exceptionally well. He lived a rather sheltered life when he was young and when he went away to school he always had clan members with him to watch over him.

When he was in college he did a school musical and he was approached by a talent agent and asked him has he ever thought of being a singer. Ayato thought the guy was joking but showed up at his office. Within months, he was signed on to a label against his mother wishes. He became a big hit in Asia and that how he met Julian D'Addizio. Ayato's agent partnered with an Italian company to promote him in Europe and Julian came to the meeting as the representative for the Italian firm. They became fast friends. It was late spring at Julian's mother family home did he discover Julian was a snow leopard. Ayato helped Julian find out who infected him and that is when Ayato found out his older sister, who went rogue infected Julian. She had been put down because of the number of people she infected.

The big turning point in Ayato career was when an article was printed that he was a were leopard. At first, there was a firestorm of news and his PR people made him keep quiet, but all it did was boost his appeal to the public. But it did put him on the hunter's list. He was forced to stay away from family for fear that he would expose them. He continues to perform but not as much. He has to travel with a special permit that identifies him as a were leopard.

He was in New York modeling when he got a call from Julian D'Addizio. He travels from New York to New Orleans after a photo shoot when he gets a call from his good friend. Julian asked him to help out with a new pard he has joined.

Strengths: Like all lycanthrope, he has super human strength. But even for a were-animal, he is strong. Being born a were-leopard is part of that. He has trained in hand-to-hand combat and knows how to use a pistol. He is loyal and caring to those weaker than he is. He had tight control over his shape shifting. He has some resistance to vampire power especially being rolled by one.

Weaknesses: His love for his family can get in the way of his judgment. It has caused him to be discipline several times in his life by the council of snow leopards. He can be too brash when fighting and careless because he has yet met someone that could beat him. He could be head of his own pard but does not want the responsibility.

Quirks: He is a geek at heart even though his alter ego is an outgoing performer. He does like living in comfort and has not struggled for material things.

Other: He speaks Korean, Japanese, and English. Even though he loves women, it is not uncommon for his clan; males develop strong relationship with other males. It can be both sexual and friendship. But it does not mean that they are homosexual. In fact, that word has very little meaning in the clan's culture. It is the warrior background that has driven this behavior. He also will live longer than most human.
