.:Blu:. Posted December 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Shradow, very interesting character. I see potential for some good plot points with your character. However, final judgment will only be made once others get their apps in. AixDivadis, sorry but your cannot have a character who's part yokai. However, an alternative option could be a character who uses a yokai in battle. Kaka, NOOOOO ಠoಥ Alright, next time then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aix Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 I was thinking of a half-kitsune, because kitsune in folklore were seductresses, but could fall in love with a human and have a child. The only particularly big ability would be the ability to change/alter facial features. Can I please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Chaos Sonic Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 K, Blu! I finished most of my app...except the magic part. What would you suggest, after glancing at my app, that I should do for that?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.:Blu:. Posted December 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Shradow, I re-read your bio and I just noticed a small error. The town is not called Fukai. I haven't specified a name yet. The town is located within the nation of Fukai and Ryujin is the nation that Yudai will visit afterwards so it would be great if you could change that little bit. AixDivadis, very well, I'll allow it Chaos, everything looks good and Shinichi's sword is quite interesting. I also like his personality since it will allow for diversity amongst the cast of characters (if you're accepted of course). I'm a bit confused about something in the bio. You mentioned Yudai Kamiyama visited the Ryuunosuke clan, but was Shinichi alive during that time? If so, he'll be hundreds of years old or am I just reading that wrong? As for magic, it is optional and you can gain some later if you accepted. However, if you want to put something down, you can always copy and paste the Jinsei Armor spell. Everyone, by default, has the spell already and it isn't really required to be in the "Magic" section but you can if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just taking a step [i]back[/i] from it all makes everything easier in the long run."[/color] [b][u]Personal Info[/u][/b] [b]Username:[/b] 23701966 [b]Name:[/b] Yajirushi Toppū [b]Age:[/b] 19 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Date of Birth:[/b] January 5 [b]Blood Type:[/b] AB [spoiler=Appearance:][img]http://safebooru.org//images/203/886ff786ec136a5cbb72e8419ff48ac13a68f5eb.jpg?203086[/img][/spoiler] [spoiler=Personality:]All in all, Yajirushi is a shy character. She tends to flinch when someone draws unnecessarily close to her, and this is especially the case for people that are more intimidating in general. Yajirushi also has a case of haphephobia, that is triggered not only when she's physically touched, but also when she actually [i]touches[/i] someone else. Once triggered, Yajirushi's haphephobia tends to give off a burning "sensation", although judging by how traumatized she becomes, sensation is probably the wrong word for it. Even worse, her haphephobia almost always causes her to have flashbacks of her mother torturing her by fire, something she'd give an arm and a leg to forget about [i]completely[/i]. Her past is grim, but it has toughened Yajirushi up considerably, even up to the point of momentarily being able to resist the effects of her haphephobia. But now, all she's after is true freedom.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Bio:]Yajirushi Toppū became a mercenary at the age of 14, when she first learnt how to wield a bow and arrows. Her parents had both run rival mercenary compounds that would more often or not go at each other's throats. Yajirushi, however, didn't want any part of it, and instead originally worked for a [i]third[/i] mercenary compound; with mercenaries that would pillage from wealthy citizens. She didn't personally agree with this idea, nor the leader's idealism of the wealthy to begin with, but it was better than having to sit through all that [i]slaughter[/i] with the other two compounds' mercenaries that her parents ran. However, she had no idea what either of them were capable of, but was about to find out one day when she and her fellow mercenaries were sent out to pillage a certain someone; unbeknownst to Yajirushi, that someone was actually the main supplier of her mother's funds. As quickly as Yajirushi's cohorts stormed the target's house, they were incinerated by a stream of fire that was shot from her mother's hand. Then, the enraged mother turned to Yajirushi, and tried to interrogate her about her father's whereabouts. She was stubborn in her attempt, resorting to torture Yajirushi, which she did by immolating herself and slowly pressing her body against [i]hers[/i], and even refusing to believe her when she stated time and again that she never worked for him. Yajirushi was just about to die when all of a sudden, her father came, and quickly beheaded her mother behind her back while she was conducting her torture. He had saved her life, but in return, Yajirushi's father had expected her to work for [i]him[/i] from then on, and turn her back on the mercenaries that she was previously working for. She hesitated, but was quick to obey after a stern warning. Now though, she's seriously regretting having went with him. Yajirushi's expectations had changed greatly while she worked under her father's rule. She was used to merely robbing the civilians, and [i]maybe[/i] only killing the ones that refused to comply. But her father, on the other hand, was targeting warriors and people with power, and expected their entire corpse back so that he could confirm that they were actually dead rather than merely wounded. Yajirushi had a hard [i]enough[/i] time adjusting to these expectations, but when she was asked to bring back her former boss' head, she couldn't take it any more. She had already left the headquarters, apparently to undertake this mission. This was her chance to escape from it all. Yajirushi started running when no-one was there, gaining distance from her father. But it was only a matter of time before she would be hunted down.[/spoiler] [b][u]Combat Info[/u][/b] [b]Warrior Type:[/b] Other - Archer [spoiler=Primary Weapon:][b]Raven Charge[/b] A yumi that appears similar to those that are sometimes used by samurai, except the very tips of the bow are made of solid steel, as well as the grip. Yajirushi sometimes uses Raven Charge as a spear when she's out of arrows and in desperation to defend herself, but such instances are few and far between. However, this [i]does[/i] explain why one end of the yumi is covered in blood. For a rough visual, see pic in appearance.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Equipment:]A simple quiver of arrows that is strapped around Yajirushi's hips, slightly above the widest part, and tends to rest on her right buttock. The quiver is capable of holding an absolute maximum of 525 arrows, and Yajirushi needs at least 250 before she'll be willing to fight, except under dire circumstances.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Abilities:][b]360 Degree Vision:[/b] By keeping her eyes closed, as long as she's not asleep or in a coma, Yajirushi can see, as far as the eye can see, everything around her. She can even see whatever's going on behind her back, although she may still have to turn around in order to deal with the situation at hand. [b]Far Sight:[/b] While her eyes remain open, Yajirushi can see anyone and anything in the far yonder, giving her the ability to literally see things coming from a mile away, unless her view would be obstructed by an object. Yajirushi can easily alternate between her Far Sight and 360 Degree Vision just by the simple task of opening and closing her eyes. Blinking doesn't really count into the equation.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Special Techniques:][b]Armour Piercer:[/b] Yajirushi fires an arrow so powerfully that it soars [i]straight through[/i] one enemy, even if he or she is wearing arrow resistant armour, only to continue forth and strike anyone foolish enough to follow the stricken enemy from directly behind. [b]Arrow Fan:[/b] Grabbing a handful of arrows, Yajirushi spreads them out at anywhere between 6-15 degrees from each other before firing them all at once. This is very effective at close range or when enemies are spread out a little more.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Magic:][b]Guise of the Chameleon: [/b]In an instant, Yajirushi can change the colour of her skin and everything on her person so it matches the environment around her. She's only disguised as well as any human can disguise his or her self, so it's up to her to stop herself from being seen. [b][b]Elemental Arrows:[/b] [/b]Yajirushi can fire arrows of four elements: Fire, Water, Air and Earth. Fire Arrows are self explanatory. Water Arrows can be used to defend against fiery projectiles, or soak enemies so allied Thunder Sages can finish them off. Air Arrows have the ability to push enemies back even if they miss. Earth Arrows don't appear any different to standard arrows until they hit the ground, in which case they're capable of creating shock-waves.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Stats:][b]Nature Energy:[/b] 2 [b]Strength:[/b] 2 [b]Defense:[/b] 1 [b]Speed:[/b] 5 [b]Technique:[/b] 4 [b]Wisdom:[/b] 4[/spoiler] [b][u]Other Info[/u][/b] Theme Song: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8X3ACToii0"]Savior, by Rise Against[/url] Voice Actor: Sarah Williams (En), Eri Kitamura (Jp) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aix Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Ah, I started working on this when I first saw the RP, when it first came out. I thought wuz going to have the first female character (T_T) [spoiler='Aplikashun'][img]http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a491/AixDivadis/closeup.jpg[/img] [i]"Let’s get along, okay?"[/i] [b][u]Personal Info[/u][/b] [b]Username:[/b] AixDivadis 29029029 [b]Name: [/b]Kiyomi (First Name: 清い美) Kurosei (Surname: 黒い星) [b]Age:[/b] 22 [b]Gender: [/b]Female [b]Date of Birth: [/b]July 7 [b]Blood Type:[/b] A [b]Hobby(s):[/b] Playing her Kagurabue (Japanese ritual flute), Cooking and Eating (she is quite selfish and generally does not cook for other people). [hr][spoiler='Appearance']Because Kiyomi is part kitsune (a.k.a. a shapeshifter) she is able to change her appearance at will. However, her true appearance is that of a beautiful young woman with very long black hair worn in a hime hairstyle. She is 170 cm (5’7”) in height and weighs 58 kg (127 lb). Her eyes are light grass green and she often wears contrasting red eyeshadow. Her magic allows her to change clothing at will but her head-on fighting attire consists of a shoulderless red yukata, a yellow obi and a purple rope to carry her sword. The dress is slit to allow for easy movement but covers enough to serve like a hakama. On her feet she wears traditional wooden sandals without socks. Her ninja clothing is a form-fitting black uniform with loose sleeves and a black fox mask, she retains the purple sword rope and her footwear is changed to cloth boots that allows for quiet movement. [spoiler='Picture'][img]http://safebooru.org//samples/945/sample_6312a9517029252f4987fd86726c969a630df06a.jpg?950579[/img][/spoiler][/spoiler] [hr][spoiler='Personality']Kiyomi is sly and cunning like most kitsune. She can adapt to any persona and wear it like a mask for as long as she wishes as she was trained to do so. She was also trained to be natural paranoid and distrusting, but always pretending to trust so to allow them to underestimate and/or misjudge her. When not pretending to be someone else, Kiyomi is a sad, serene and mature young woman who spends quiet time alone, playing her flute, cooking and eating or pondering and daydreaming. She is very comfortable with men, she was sent on missions before, and knows what make them click and how to get close to them and manipulate them by their desires, but she knows nothing of true love, except of paternal love she received after Masaru found her again and motherly/grand-motherly love from the Nine Tails, and she is curious about it, however, she has yet to find someone which she truly likes. She just hasn’t ever felt for the people she seduced, which ranged from old men and shogun to young nobles and yokai princes.[/spoiler] [hr][spoiler='Biography']Kiyomi is a half-youkai. She is the offspring of a famous swordsman, Masaru Kurosei, and a nogitsune which he fell for and she, in turn, fell in love with him. The tragedy of her and her family begins with her father. When Masaru Kurosei was merely a young aspiring swordsman of 16 years, his family, consisting of his mother, his sister and his grandparents, was massacred by a Hyakki Yagyou, a band of youkai, while he was out in a forest clearing practicing his swordsmanship. He did, eventually, hunt them down and slay them, but he retained a great loathing for youkai. He wandered the world and got involved in many intrigues, made a fortune, but eventually got on the bad side of five of the emperors and their shoguns and he was forced to hide away. In a remote mountain village, he encountered a young woman by the name of Natsumi. They grew close and married, but Masaru did not know everything about his young wife. Natsumi was, in fact, a nogitsune who seduced men to feed on their life force but she was charmed by this man and fell in love. Natsumi became pregnant. It was Kiyomi. But, upon the moments after Natsumi gave birth, the pain rendered her unable to keep her form completely steady and she revealed fox ears and a tail. Upon seeing this, Masaru went into a berserk rage, remembering the evil deed committed by youkai on his own family, and he slew her on the spot. However, he immediately regretted what he did but what was done was done and he resolved to raise his child. Unfortunately, he had been hoping for a boy, and Kiyomi was a girl. Though disappointed, he still educated his daughter in the way of the sword. Masaru slowly became a drunk. He lamented his life, lamented how he had to hide away in a remote mountain village and lamented the loss of his wife, realizing that she really did love him. When he was drunk he eventually turned to abuse Kiyomi. As time went by, the abuse became more frequent and when Kiyomi was thirteen, she could take it anymore and ran away from home. For years, Kiyomi wandered the world and lived on the streets with other street urchins. Masaru stayed in the remote mountain village for half a year, growing even more sad and drunk. The Nine Tails of the Mountain appeared before him, the mother of Natsumi, and berated him for his drunkenness, screamed at him about the murder of her daughter and his abuse and neglect of her granddaughter. She managed to convince him to make things straight again and find his daughter once more. He wandered the world for almost three years before finally tracking Kiyomi down. He apologized and Kiyomi managed to forgive him. She and her father returned to their house. But someone recognized Masaru, he knew that Masaru had a bounty on his head. The men of the other nations were contacted and they tracked Masaru and Kiyomi back to the mountains. A conflict ensued, but they were no match for Masaru. Kiyomi’s forte was stealth so she was not nearly as good as her father. The emperor’s men caught Kiyomi and held her hostage, demanding the Masaru give him up. Masaru secured a deal which he would die but they would set his daughter free. Masaru was tied up by binds too strong for even him to break. Cruelly, the shogun who was in charge smiled, told Masaru that he lied about setting Kiyomi, before slashing him, dealing a mortal wound that would cause him to slowly bleed to death. As the shogun walked to slay Masaru’s daughter, Masaru cried out. The Nine Tails appeared and sent the shogun’s men flying back. The Nine Tails put Masaru out of his misery, telling him it was karma but she promised to take Kiyomi in. Then, she reanimated Masaru’s body and used Masaru’s skill to kill most of the shogun’s men and send the shogun and his remaining men running. Kiyomi was taken in by the Nine Tails and her youkai clan. She was taught the ways of an assassin, seductress and ninja and she was also taught some swordsmanship and magic. The Nine Tails sent her on missions that were once her mother’s duty and she was to stay until the Nine Tails was satisfied. At last, after five years, she allowed Kiyomi to go and seek her own destiny in the world.[/spoiler] [hr][spoiler='Combat Info']Warrior Type: Sage Assassin Primary Weapon(s): Katana, she uses an elaborate sword style taught to her by her father. The katana is a relatively special katana that can channel Youkai Energy and Nature Energy. Secondary Weapon(s) & Equipment: Blade Fan, Kunai, she wields her katana in her left and her fan on her right. Kunai are hidden in her right sleeve (her fan hand). [hr][spoiler='Passive Abilities'][b]Stealth:[/b] Kiyomi knows many tricks to go undetected. Her footwork is almost immaculate and she can run, leap, jump and land in almost complete silence. An amateur would not hear a thing. She is able to scale walls and hang from the ceiling to hide. [b]Augmented Senses:[/b] As an animal spirit and youkai, her senses are above par and she can hear very well, smell and differentiate people by their scent and see in the dark. [b]Enhanced Speed:[/b] Kiyomi is exceptionally fast and light on her feet. [b]Jinsei Armor: [/b]A passive magic known by any respectable warrior, this magic concentrates Nature Energy and spreads the energy throughout a person's body, creating a kind of natural "armor" that increases a person's durability significantly and without the person needing to regulate the magic. It is unknown how a warrior acquires this magic but it seems to naturally happen once a warrior learns how to concentrate Nature Energy. Experienced warriors and mid-level Sages are able to regulate the dispersal of Nature Energy throughout their body, allowing them to increase the durability of certain body parts more significantly than the passive method.[/spoiler] [hr][spoiler='Special Techniques and Magic'][b]Appearance Shifting:[/b] Though Kiyomi cannot completely change shape like a true kitsune can, but she can modify her facial features, change her clothing and alter her height. The only way which she can fully change shape is to change into a fox. In this form she has great speed and it is a lot easier for her to hide. [b]Flame Lightning Sword:[/b] Kiyomi’s sword now flickers with orange flames and crackles with white lightning. It’s not just for show. [b]Light Orb:[/b] Like a kitsune, Kiyomi has a kitsune-bi or foxfire/will-o-the-wisp which she can use to illuminate her path or lead people around. It is, however, a weak point and attacking it will do her damage. She usually completely dims it and hides it under her robes. [b]Animation/Reanimation:[/b] By inserting her energy into the a corpse or doll, she can animate it to perform her will. At most, she can animate 2 bodies. If she inserts her kitsune-bi into the body, she is able to also use any skills they had in real life, though not very efficiently. It is more efficient the more connected she is to that person, so she generally has the body of her father walking around with her. He wears a mask and is dressed like a Shinigami from Bleach, with a white shitagi,a black kosode and hakama, a pair of white tabi, a pair of waraji, and a white obi. Masaru is a very strong swordsman, though as a reanimated corpse, his strength is greatly reduced and his movements and technique are somewhat erratic. He cannot talk. [b]Flame Lightning:[/b] Kiyomi casts lightning that is coated in fire (don’t ask for physics lesson), she cannot spam it and can only use it once every two minutes.[/spoiler] [hr][spoiler='Stats'] [b]Nature Energy:[/b] 4/5, she has an impressive handle on Nature Energy and can use it to animate bodies [b]Strength: [/b]2/5, her strength is not the best, but she relies on accuracy of hits, speed and stealth anyway [b]Defense:[/b] 3.5/5, her Jinsei Armor is rather good, she can take a few hits. [b]Speed:[/b] 5/5, extremely fast [b]Technique:[/b] 3.5/5, her technique is not bad. [b]Wisdom:[/b] 3/5, she can instantly think of 10 ways to infiltrate a fortress, she's good at spotting her opponent's weaknesses but she is not used to working with others. [/spoiler][/spoiler] [hr][b][u]Other Info[/u][/b] Kiyomi is left-handed.[/spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.:Blu:. Posted December 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Okay, let's put it this way, if a fist fighter uses a series of rapid punches that isn't a normal attack then that would be considered a special technique. Magic is like summoning a fireball or a lightning bolt. Special techniques are also unique to one person whereas a simple spell in magic could be learned and used by another person.
