He's a firey type character, opposite to one of my old skins, Toshiro.
As for a backstory, he and Toshiro, known in their school as "Fire" and "Ice", have a longstanding rivalry. He's a bit of a delinquent character, getting into trouble often. While Akared excels at sports and physical activities, he couldn't hold a torch to Toshiro's studies. And vice versa. Energetic but blunt, it's about as hard to be friends with the fiery Akared as it is the cold Toshiro.
