About Me

profile design by äRRiel
You're Nanaki (AKA Red XIII). You're a very wise
person full of knowledge and reliability.
You're fighting skills are strong and you are
somewhat of a strong, silent type. However, you
are loyal to your friends and family, and have
a huge heart. Like Cait Sith, you run around
without clothes, which is shocking because of
your high IQ. With that much knowledge, why
don't you go out and get a job instead of being
unemployeed?
