Kotome Nene (Real name "Achille Grimaude") also known by his aliases "Five" or "Soprano" is a ghoul working for "間違いないでたらめ" (lit.no doubt bullshit) News Agency as a paper boy. He lives by himself in an apartment in the 5th ward. He is also a member of Aogiri Tree.

Appearance

Pre-wintertide arc: has dark brown hair with a fade on the sides whilst he keeps it long on the top. His hair naturally drops to cover his forehead but he prefers to part it to the left. Wintertide arc onwards: been a while since his last hair cut so his hair is now at a length that covers his forehead/eyes.

He has an average physique, not skinny whilst not fat with a standard proportion of muscle. Pre-train raid arc: Usually wears black jeans, polished black dress shoes, a t-shirt with the words "新しい世代" (lit. new generation) and a blue hooded puffer jacket. He has a birthmark located on his right shoulder. Post-train raid arc: Changed to a simple white shirt and black overcoat. Sometimes wears a baseball cap.

Personality

Kotome is very calm and collected on a normal day. He has a more perverted side as shown when he reacts to seeing the no-eyed king. This is supposedly caused by his own "fetish" for anyone with a new and different scent, sending him into a short frenzy. He has a darker and more twisted side which we have yet to see the origin of.

His level of communication with peers varies on the surrounding circumstances. In a normal day to day scenario of nothing big happening, he will remain silent unless questioned by a peer. When he is with an ally that he has known for a long period of time, he will start being more open towards them even telling them about his past or even comparing them to his child-hood friends. When in a dangerous scenario where he or an ally could die, he will communicate a lot more. Due to this he can be viewed as being stoic.

Background

He used to live with 4 others in an abandoned warehouse where they lived together. He shared the warehouse with a bunch of pre-teens; "Rock, Clover (Real name: Kotomi), Cherry(Real name: Nene) & an older girl who they refer to as "Sister". One evening, they come under attack by CCG doves causing the group to split up during the confusion. The groups current whereabouts are unknown and we have no information on if they are still alive.

He participated in the first Aogiri Tree Free for all race and fighting tournament where he co-operated with Kota Okada to reach the top of the tower. He then participated in the second Aogiri Tree Free for all where he entered a state of arousal upon seeing the No-Eyed King sending him into a frenzy attacking all ghouls around him. He fought and lost against Maki Itokawa due to blood loss and fatigue from his earlier rampage allowing for even the most common dirty trick to take him down.

He participated in the Railroad Raid, assisting Kana Itsuhara in a tag team fight against Akane Hotaro & Hiraku Kei where they were successful in stealing supplies.

Abilities & Powers

Achille is a Koukaku ghoul who specialises in sword and shield kagune techniques.

Eagle Eye - Has trained his eyes to the point of having combining his normal already 20-20 vision with his ghoul senses to discover an innate eagle eye that allows him to view even the most miniscule objects such as the smoke from a rifle's barrel at long distances.

Hand to hand combat

He has prior experience of fighting in hand to hand combat during street brawls and is capable of applying dirty tricks during combat to give him the edge. He has also practiced different forms of martial arts gaining moderate knowledge and experience in them as well as having minor experience in fencing.

Kagune

Currently his kagune can only extend from his left arm. It has 3 distinct forms that it can break apart or group together to form.

Form 1 - Winged Shield

His kagune grows into a large shield with scales running along it forming lines and lines of kagune spikes sticking out of it almost shaped like feathers. He nicknamed this shield to the winged shield as the kagune edges sticking out of it resemble feathers giving it the appearance of the wing of a falcon. This is his most defensive kagune and is capable of defending him from the attacks of other Koukaku ghouls, Ukaku ghouls & Bikaku ghouls. He also uses this shield to ram into his opponents. Whilst using this kagune, his body weight is heavily increased causing a lot of strain on his legs whilst moving. The shield can hold off a Rinkaku ghoul's attacks for a brief period of time.

Form 2 - Long Blade

His kagune grows to form a long jagged blade resembling an incomplete spear. This blade has a reach of 3 metres along with a pointy end. Although it is jagged, it can still leave a nasty cut in his opponents should it meet at them with direct contact. This blade is a lot slower to use than his short blade but allows him to have more speed on his body than with his winged shield.

Form 3 - Short blade

His kagune grows to form a short jagged blade resembling an incomplete knife. This blade has a reach of a kitchen knife and is the sharpest of all 3 forms. It provides him with the fastest movement speed whilst using his kagune in comparison to his other 2 forms.
