3) Characteristics:

-Personality: Firm and serious during classes, but relatively-charming and calm outside of classes. Doesn't complain even in tough situations, instead keeping a positive look at it. Doesn't hold any favoritism among his students. He has a great ego and is very proud, and likes to glorify his achievements and talents, to the annoyance of his students.

-Background: Pluto has been an orphan ever since he was born, spending most of his childhood at an orphanage at Vacuo. He never got to meet his parents, and only got to know his name thanks to a woman that worked at the orphanage that supposedly knew his mother. The kids at the orphanage were a close group; as they all had no family that they knew, they chose to instead become a family. Among the kids, the one he felt closer the most was a (bat) Faunus girl, Charón Solstice.

Pluto constantly complained about many things about the world. Apparently being abandoned by his real family, the treatment most Faunus get, yadda yadda, which sometimes annoyed the other kids, and the orphanage's staff. And this, was the reason he was intrigued by Charón; she was blind, and had a rather "weak" body, easily suffering injuries all the time. And yet, she was always optimistic and happy, always with a smile on her face. Through his interactions with her, the two became close friends, and Pluto learned that the world may be full of shit, but even then, the world is beautiful.

One day, a woman came to the orphanage to adopt a kid. She chose Charón. Pluto tried to stop her, he didn't want to let her take Charón, but then she calmed him down, and reassured him it was going to be alright. In that moment, inspired by the constant tales of Hunters told at the orphanage, Pluto and Charón made a promise: That they would become great Hunters, and once they did, they would meet again.

Pluto's turn came a few months later. A human couple, a young woman and a big, stern man. The woman seemed interested in Pluto and wanted to adopt him, though the man did not share the feeling and tried to convince her of choosing another kid, showing some mistrust in the Faunus boy. The woman was able to convince him however, and so Pluto became part of their family. The woman treated him well-enough, though the man tried to avoid him for the most part. He was 8 at the time.

Pluto still held-on to that promise, and trained every day as much as he could. When he was 11, he found out his dad was Atlesian, part of the Atlesian military. He tried to convince his father to help him with his training to become a Hunter, but his father declined all his requests. Until Pluto, almost 12 by then, explained about the promise. At that moment, his stepfather decided to help him, but on 1 condition: If he was going to be a great Hunter, he was going to get training of such level. The training was more intense than ever, and he refused to help his son with any injury he suffered, which worried his wife, but was exactly what Pluto was expecting. It did give fruits; By the time Pluto joined a "Rookie-level" Hunter academy, he was almost from the start among the best in his class, and quickly got to the college-level Hunter Academy after that, even becoming the leader of his team.

He was proud of what he had achieved, and at times let that go to his head, which got him at odds with his teammates, despite having good tactical and leadering skills (in his opinion). At least, until during a rather heated argument, one of his teammates, Fulgur Tonitrui, exclaimed how they were getting tired of his attitude. At that moment, he worked hard to improve, to limit his ego and pride. And it worked for the most part, though he still let it slip at times.

Eventually he graduated with honors along with his team, and a couple of years later the Academy he studied in hired him as a teacher. His classes are a bit more informal than most teachers's, and focuses on teamwork, teaching his students how to effectively fight each known Grimm effectively as a team, and teaches each team's leader how to lead effectively based on his experiences, making emphasis in not letting pride or ego get the best of them. Although his own ego and pride still tend to show at times, which causes some of his students to see him as an hypocrite.

In all that time though, he never found Charón again, or even heard of her. He has asked around, looked for her, but still hasn't seen her yet. He wonders sometimes if she's really ok, but stays positive regarding her fate everytime.

4)Combat info:

-Role: Champion, Magic Swashbuckler.

-Landing Strategy: If possible, grab something to land on, if possible a Grimm. If not, then stab his weapon on to the nearest vertical flat surface to stop or slow his fall.

-Weapon: Rainbow 6+Kuiper Hand.

Rainbow 6: A longsword, basically. Nothing too special about it except for it's revolver barrel between the handle and the blade. Each slot in said barrel holds a different Dust Crystal. By pulling a trigger on the handle, the Dust's energy is automatically focused on the blade, turning it into a fire/ice/lighting/wind/whatever sword.

Kuiper Hand: A glove he wears on his left hand during combat. The glove has Ice, Fire and Lightning Dust woven into it, which Pluto can focus to use "spells", though only of 1 element at a time. He never was skilled at using Aura, and as such his Dust attacks lack range and strength, though still have some versatility.

-Semblance: Winter Solstice: (Sustained) A small area around Pluto becomes very cold, with snow and ice forming around him. His body and clothes also change to a very white color, though his golden eyes are still distinguishable. The more he focuses and the less he moves, the bigger the area frozen. The low temperature even affects the Dust in his glove and sword, making the ice cold enough to burn, and making the fire and lightning capable of freezing to some extent. It's main use is for camoflage in snowy areas, though it also has some offensive potential thanks to the temperature drop. Trying to move while using it increases Aura cost.

-Fighting Style: He basically focuses on parries and evasions followed by quick slashes with his sword. If the oponent tries to use the same strategy, he adds Kuiper Hand into the equation to throw it off balance, but for the most part still focuses on his sword.

Trivia:

-Relationships: He wasn't the most social of the kids at the orphanage, spending most of his time with Charón. He wasn't particularly hated or excluded, nor did he hate them or ignore them, he just didn't really like talking back then except with Charón. After joining a college-level Hunter Academy, his personality put him at odds with his teammates constantly, though after his "character development" they got along better. With his students, it's zig-zagged: Some like him, others hate him for one reason or another, others don't care. He treats them all the same way in any case.

-Note: His name comes from the planet/roman god Pluto. His last name, Eschatón, means "last". Kinda redundant, but still.
