Eichi Tenshouin

The idol representative of the idol agency, Starmaker Production. With a serene and mindful disposition, he loves idols more than anyone else. With a gentle and delicate voice, his performances have a feeling of elegance and warmth.

Eichi is a member of Starmaker Production's fine.

Appearance
Eichi has pale blond hair and light blue eyes with a fair complexion.

On stage in his unit outfit, Eichi wears a three-piece suit with a white cravat that is tinged pale gold at the bottom. His tailcoat is mainly white in color, although it is lined with pale blue fabric, and is decorated with golden embellishments on the lapels and collar. The cufflinks and pocket lining are golden. His waistcoat is the same pale blue as his waistcoat lining. His pants are white with golden embellishments on the waist and golden-lined pockets. He wears short white gloves. His shoes are white with gold accents and soles.

His casual outfit consists of a light blue button down shirt and white trousers. The collars, sleeves and buttons of the shirt are a darker navy blue. He wears a wristwatch on his left hand.

Personality
Soft-spoken and articulate, Eichi presents himself with the general elegance of someone raised in high society. He generally emotes with various shades of faint smiles regardless of situation, and treats most situations with an airy lack of gravity and general interest, with a preference for the wild and unpredictable. Very little breaks his cordial demeanor, and, should something upset him, he would rather tuck that away at his breast and return the favor tenfold later. He is inclined toward childishness in regards to how easily he is entertained, and how petty he can be.

Beneath his politesse, Eichi is both ruthless and loving. He will fall short of no machination to gain what it is he wants, but his underlying motivations are largely good— he wants to create a better future for the generations that succeed him and his peers, so those younger will not have to suffer the way their predecessors have. However, what makes him so contentious among his peers is that Eichi always opts for efficiency: being terminally ill, Eichi has very little time and very little experience with the world, and so he chooses the fastest—fastest being often the cruelest—path from A to B, as well as the path that offers him the most entertainment.

Eichi has lived most of his life confined to a hospital bed, so weak that he was often unable to even feed himself; when he was able to leave the hospital, he was friendless and isolated, surrounded by vultures who wanted to climb into his good graces as heir to the Tenshouin Zaibatsu, the largest conglomerate in Japan's entertainment industry. This has left him, in short, lonely; his only company for a long time was watching idols on the hospital television, as well as movies and books. In a less tragic assessment of affairs, this means he is clumsy with basic social concepts like friendship, and he is long-winded and dramatic from having socialized mainly with movies and books.

Etymology
Eichi's first name consists of two characters which mean "hero" (英) and "wisdom" (智). His last name consists of three characters which mean "heaven" (天), "auspice" (祥), and "institution" (院). The characters that make up his name fit his elite, exalted image.
