(Guess I couldn't put him off forever.  Oh-kay, here we go.)


Name: Baku (He doesn't really have one)

Module Name: Trickster

Birthday: July 4 (year unknown)

Pronouns: He/him

Sexuality: Unknown (presumably straight)

Likes: Tea, reading, girls with beautiful dreams, eating dreams and nightmares, night time

Dislikes: Daytime, not having any dreams to eat, annoying Lens

Strengths: Charming, immortal, seemingly generous

Weaknesses: Sneaky, untrustworthy, mischievous

Relationships:

- Scissors: They have a bit of a love-hate relationship, AKA he loves her, she hates him.  To Baku, Hasami is a dream eater's dream come true, but to Hasami, he's a pain in the neck.  This won't stop him from trying everything he can to seduce her into a contract, even if it means getting a little too close to her scissors for comfort

- Holy Lancer: Despite their similarities, they absolutely hate each other and constantly fight over how to win a girl over.  It should be noted that Baku's attitude towards the Lens is pretty much the same.

- Ni-No-Sakura Fan Dance: If you were to ask Senbu, he would probably call their relationship "mortal enemies".  Although this is a little extreme, he's frequently on the Sakura Squad's radar, to the point where they actually have an indicator for Baku-related incidents, "Code Grey!"  (Code Grey is sort of like 2319 in Alterna)

Quote from his song/Favorite quote: "It's all right if you have more, even more wishes, Confess your desires, You'll never be able to escape from this abyssal paradise"


Background: At first glance, Baku might just be one of the nicest Lens you'll ever meet.  Polite, charming, and slightly mischievous, he's stolen the heart of many a young lady (including some modules).  Unlike most of his kind though, which only devour nightmares, he won't just get rid of your nightmares, but also give you beautiful dreams.  He'll even seal it with a pinky promise or a kiss.

When the full moon rises, however, his true predatory nature is revealed, and he takes his "payment" in dreams, not the ones he gave you, but your hopes, desires, and ambitions.  Doing so will leave you with a complete lack of imagination, as well as turning your eyesight completely monochrome.  So if he ever gives you an offer like that, DON'T DO IT!

Baku's origins are a complete mystery, although it has been theorized that he came into existence sometime in the Edo era.  What's certain is that he's much older than he looks.  He also seems to have a certain affection for the Victorian period.  

While most baku will only devour one's hopes and desires if they are still hungry after eating a nightmare, he seems to have a taste for them and will seek them out especially.  It is interesting to note that when he comes to collect, he leaves behind one part of the grand dream, the brightest, strongest part, and takes it with him without actually consuming it.  No one knows exactly what he does with that dream...


Fun Facts:

- He loves coming up with new ways to trick people

- He's kind of a picky eater.  He seems to only like women's dreams, as men's dreams supposedly taste awful to him.

- His favorite food is a girl's greatest dream.  Not kidding.

- Just because he flirts with you doesn't mean he actually has feelings for you.  More likely he just wants your hopes and dreams.

- He's EXTREMELY tech-inept.  His knowledge of technology is up to the 1920s AT MOST.

(There are two certain things.  This Len cannot be trusted, and Miku is stupid.  Very, very stupid.)
