“You never understood... why we did this. The audience knows the truth. The world is simple, miserable, solid all the way through. But if you can fool them, even for a second... then you can make them wonder. And you get to see something very special. ... You really don't know. ... It was the look on their faces.”
– Robert Angier, The Prestige
Overview
Haruki's a Magician as he'll tell anyone who asks. He's Japanese, which tends to make him stand out. He's very new in town.
Haruki's Story
Nakamura Haruki was born in Okinawa, to the wayward daughter of an influential businessman. Four years ago, he, and his brother, Itsuki, visited Fort Brunsett in search of their father. The brothers ended up having a huge argument and haven't spoken until very recently. Haruki seems to think that Itsuki either fell in with a bad crowd, or drugs, or had a mental breakdown.
Haruki returned to his grandfather, where he tried his best to be the obedient grandson, but that was never to be. At 21 he took off for Vegas to learn all that he could about magic. Just over a year later he found himself in Hollywood, at the Magic Castle. After his partner left him, he decided to move again, and ended up back at Fort Brunsett.
While he appears to be in his teens, and gets carded all the time, he's older than he looks.
He likes rabbits and keeps several as pets.
Fame 1: Magician Haruki has a youtube channel, a facebook page, and a now defunct website devoted to his previous double-act. While technically he's extremely good, there's little to distinguish his solo performances from any of the other hundreds, thousands, of magicians on youtube. He's in desperate need of a personal gimmick, or some sort of spark to bring his performances to life.
The most recent shows, linked to from his channel are an act he performed with a woman named Zelda. Their acts combined gamer and geek culture, lots of cosplay, and magic. Their most recent act involved performances with stuffed toys, rabbits dyed to look like pokemon, and pokeball props around the time of the Pokemon Go craze. Zelda was most certainly the creative talent, and charisma behind their show, whereas Haruki was far more technically minded. Zelda got frustrated at being called an assistant, and she's since struck out on her own.
