Sid

Amane 'Sid' Yokoshima is a player of the Horizon game.

Appearance
Amane, like his personality, has a very unique appearence among his acquaintances, with platinum white hair, purple eyes and a beauty mark under his right eye. It is noted during the events of the Rubatosis arc that Amane is actually very beautiful and has a singular (but wry) smile, always wearing clothes that resemble a lab coat.

Personality
Amane is way too smart, being a chemistry student and being depicted as a scientist on most of his appearances. He is very eccentric, ironic and doesn't hesitate to say hurtful things if they are the truth, as Asuna would describe.

He always has something to say to mock his friends or enemies, always having a smile on his face and never letting anyone put him down, choosing everything else but defeat and humiliation.

Background
Not much is known about Amane's past, but he currently lives in a small apartment with his boyfriend, Etsuo, and is about to finish his degree. He is also working as an intern at the university's lab.

Etsuo Kawahara
Etsuo and Amane live together in a small apartment near their university. Amane is very attracted to his boyfriend and seems to easily get jealous of him, but Etsuo just brushes it off and says that he doesn't love anyone like he loves Amane.

In-Game, it is implied that Etsuo is the only one that Amane allows to call him by his real name, prefering to be called "Sid" when playing.

Asuna Bryndis
During the events of the Rubatosis arc, Amane thought of Asuna as weak, both as a mage and as a person, thinking her attitudes were mediocre and that she lacked inteligence to deal with her life as a whole, which pissed him off as he can't handle any kind of stupidity.

Abilities
Chemical Manipulation: Amane can create extremely toxic and deadly formulas with different chemicals, being apparently the only Mage in the entire game to have this skill at its maximum level. This skill is extremely versatile, as Amane is able to create healing potions, poisons, and a very vast set of chemical components.

Equipment
Amane doesn't resort to weapons in battle as he thinks magic is far superior, but he has a dagger for emergency situations.

Trivia

 * He and Etsuo have three cats, named Astatine, Plutonium and Osmium.
 * Amane knows the entire periodic table.
