Name: Hikaru Jaspilite Hinote Tenjitsuboshinoaki Hiroshima
Nicknames: He much prefers to be called Corona over his real name; this is also his superhero alias
Age: 19
Bithday: January 29th
Sign: Aquarius
Status: Good
Powers:
- He can absorb and manipulate solar energy or energy from celestial bodies (stars, and to some extent the moon) and convert it into energy of various forms. He can create solar plasma attacks and also create solar wind. Something he can also use, but rarely does because of it’s nature, are solar flares; large bursts/explosions of solar energy on a dangerous level. He is also immune to fire or extremities of heat, such as lava.
- He is also an electrokinetic, and the polarity he uses is negative(-), reflecting his personality. Combining this with his solar powers he has a large field of possibilities open for him, including CME blasts (Coronal Magnetic Ejections, which would be like blasts that combine both solar plasma and electricity) and Magentic reconnection, with which he induces electric currents in his solar plasma and make it collapse, releasing large waves of heat and energy instead of plasma.
- Also, because of his mother’s Feral blood he partially inherited, he has enhanced senses, particularly eyesight, and inhumanly fast reflexes and agility. He cannot transform any part of his body animalisticly (meaning he has no claws, cat ears, or a tail) but his eyes do glow in the dark, and when he “turns on” his eye’s superhuman sharpness to its full power they take on a bright yellow and cat-like appearance, much like Sapphire’s. When he doesn’t use this, however, his eyes look like a normal human’s.
However, unlike Athrin or Sapphire, he does not have any apparent Kiramonian powers.
Personality: Corona is the type of person who likes to be in control. He is in no way a control freak, but he does much prefer to have control over his own life, emotions, future, etc. He is rather cold and distant, keeping to himself, and above all is serious. He tends to be stoic all the time, and has difficulty just kicking back and relaxing, and having, dare I say it, fun. He is very untrusting of people, even sometimes to the point of paranoia, and tends to take things personally. Because of this he rarely makes friends, and even if he does consider someone a friend it doesn’t always mean that he fully trusts them. However, when you get to know him he is actually a very passionate and poetic person. He does have few passions and a tender and caring heart, but he does a good job of not showing it. He only shows that side of him to people who have earned his utmost respect and trust; as of now that only applies to one person.
Like his sister he has inherited his mother’s stubbornness and determined nature and of course an immense sense of curiosity. But unlike his sister he has a very cool temper. Although certain things do easily set his anger off, he will rarely lose his cool, because it would affect his powers. As a result he has become the serious person he is. When he does lose his cool, though, he’s a force to be reckoned with. He also has his father’s valorous and intrepid traits in him.
Weaknesses:
- He has a lot of difficulties controlling his powers, restricting him from using them too much or for too long. It also restricts him from being too emotional, such as losing control of his anger or becoming excessively sad(but mostly the former, rarely the latter).
- Positive electricity can harm him, and his attacks will do nothing to an electrokinetic who uses neutral electricity.
- Also, although he can store solar energy within his body in large quantities, he must recharge himself if he runs out and to do that he must bask in sunlight or starlight. if the sun isn’t visible in the sky during the day or the stars aren’t visible in the sky at night he has to be careful about using his solar energy powers, because if he uses them too much he’ll run out of energy and have no way to recharge.
- He can easily be angered by things that strike a nerve, most notably traitors or those who take advantage of others. He also very much hates talking about his past and will avoid the subject at all costs.
Appearance: He has long, shaggy dark blue-green hair with messy-looking and unruly bangs that hang over his eyes which are a deep blue; the same shade Sapphire’s used to be before her transformation. He has a muscular body from training and a strong chin and back and slightly weathered hands from a life accustomed to hard work.
He wears a orange and red sleeveless jacket with a white and black hood over a black tank top, gray and black pants and tennis shoes with colors that match that of his jacket. On this left upper arm he wears an orange bandana tied around his arm snugly, and on his hands he dons black fingerless gloves much like sports gloves. On both of his elbows he wears black elbow-pads.
Goals:
- Reunite with his family and try to “pick up where things should have left off”, and try to live a normal, happy life.
- Gain full control over his powers
Likes:
- Spicy and sour foods
- Poetry
- Martial arts
- Sunny days
- Clear and starry nights
- Sunflowers
- Greek Mythology
- Reading
- “Quite time”
Dislikes:
- His name
- Cloudy days
- The night of the New Moon (because the moon isn't visible)
- Bitter foods
- Traitors
- People who take advantage of others
- Having his “quiet time” interrupted
Friends/Allies: Sapphire, Taisu

Other: He is skilled with the Guan Dao (Japanese Halberd) and the Yari(Japanese Spear).
History: Believe it or not, Corona is the firstborn of Athrin and Kiraboshi. However, he was separated from them at birth. Uriah kidnapped him not but a day after he was born and used his clairvoyance abilities to plant false memories into Athrin’s and Kiraboshi’s minds to make them believe he died just minutes after he was born due to complications with his lungs. While they mourned the “death” of their firstborn, Uriah took great enjoyment in taking their son away from them.
Since then he had been raised as Uriah’s son, thinking that he was his father. He was trained to be a relentless fighter and for the most part it succeeded, with just the single complication of his lack of control over his powers. Unlike Sapphire, he was never shown any love or affection, so he never learned how to express it. He did, however, develop an interest in poetry as he hit adolescence.
When he was ten, Sapphire moved in with him and Uriah after she had been “found” amongst the rubble of her burnt down home. He never suspected anything, and neither did she. Over the four years Sapphire was there they has a sort of unspoken but mutual friendship that loosely resembled a brother and sister relationship, but there were obviously some barriers that prevented them forming a close friendship. However, Sapphire did somehow manage to accidentally get Corona interested in poetry during a “debate” they had over haikus, inadvertently provoking him to scrutinize it; thus leading to his single passion for poetry.
However, when Sapphire left unexpectedly and without word Uriah made sure that Corona grew bitter, feeding him lies about Sapphire using them to get stronger and then leaving. Feeling a deep sense of betrayal, he inevitably grew bitter and set out to track her down. He eventually did, and after a fight or two, Sapphire managed to calm him down enough to get him to talk. But because of the lies that Uriah told him, and Uriah inexorably being the one he trusted the most because he was his “Father”, he didn’t believe her. However, when they almost ended up clashing again they inexplicably managed to discover that they were actually, in fact, long-lost siblings via the brooches they both had. Out of her natural curiosity (and his, too) Sapphire connected the two and found out they joined together like puzzle pieces. Upon connecting they projected a holographic image of Athrin and Kiraboshi-with a newborn infant Corona, giving unprecedented proof that they were siblings.
After that, learning who he really was, Corona vowed revenge on Uriah for taking him way from his family and destroying any chance of a happy life he might have had. He urged Sapphire to get as far away as she could and hide, promising that he’d come and find her again someday, but never told her about the connection he had made between Uriah and the death of their parents (or even the fact that Uriah had probably taken him from them at birth) for fear that she’d want to come along and might even follow him back, putting her in immense danger. So he said no word of it, only that he had to go back. He then left to confront Uriah.
When he did face Uriah, a fight of course quickly followed. Even with his powers and extensive training, however, he wasn’t a match for the telepath who used his unusual powers to quickly subdue the adolescent. But using a well-executed distraction, Corona managed to barely make it out with his life.
After that he discarded thoughts of revenge (for the time being at least) and has focused on keeping his promise to Sapphire of re-joining her and living together as a family like things should have been. Eventually they found each other, but it became evident soon enough that Uriah was looking for them both. He told her that they should continue on their separate paths, but continue to keep in contact. They would mention the other to no one else and would communicate through e-mails or the occasional letter, and very, very rare visits in person, and eventually frequents of the latter two when Sapphire joined the Titans.
This was the norm for quite some time, 3 years, actually, until finally Corona got a message from Sapphire telling him that she had met and confronted Malice, an enigmatic villain who knew appeared to know much about her past. With this new development it as agreed that the situation had grown more fragile, and even though Sapphire (and Corona) wanted him to come and be there with her, he insisted that things stay the way they were. Bringing in a long-lost brother into the mix might just make things more complicated, he said. So things continued the way they had been.
Once Malice and Sapphire had confronted a “final” time in the warehouse, and Sapphire had learned what Corona suspected for quite some time, it seemed that their troubles would start to lift. However, Corona still thought it was best that things continued the way they were with Malice at large. Since then he has continued to exchange letters and brief secret visitations with Sapphire over the course of the following year. But after Sapphire’s next confrontation with Malice on Kiramo, their father’s homeplanet, he finally decided that it would be alright to start visiting each other more and even in public. He grew tired of Malice being on the attack and never being around when it happened to help.
But it wasn’t just that; apparently from what Sapphire told him in their most recent visit with one another, their father was miraculously still alive. So he made up his mind to take Sapphire’s offer to join up with the Titans so they could spend more time together.
However, for some strange reason he has yet to do so.[/size]
