[b]Name:[/b] Chiyo Shizune, “Cheshire Chiyo”

[b]Physical Age:[/b] 19

[b]Actual Age:[/b] 763

[b]Personality:[/b]
Calm and collected, Chiyo is often noted for her ever-present laid back attitude and borderline sarcastic nature. Having been described as a vampire who does not fear death, many would be surprised to discover that this is undeniably true in her case. Chiyo claims to not fear the end, instead choosing to go down with a smile, wherever and whenever that may be. As such, she is rarely seen with any expression other than a pair of lazy eyes coupled with a Cheshire’s grin.

That being said, Chiyo does acknowledge the fact that her species is extremely close to dying out. Therefore, she holds the elusive belief that emotion means nothing in the grand scheme of the real world, and that this whole situation is simply some past time of an omnipotent being beyond her own comprehension. Chiyo claims her only remaining goal in life is to meet “The Superior”, the omnipotent God she claims to be toying with their lives. Quite frankly, the whole idea of it amuses her, making her chuckle every time. 

Chiyo will often ponder abstract concepts, asking conceptual questions and voicing out her thoughts aloud, whether they be positive or negative. In short, she is one who speaks her mind.

The only time or reason for Chiyo to falter in her smirks is when the situation is one she does not fully understand or something has deeply upset her. Another aspect of Chiyo is her tendency to act flirtatious towards all genders, male and female alike. Most of the time though, these actions are only there to gauge just how much she can mess with the person.

[b]Bio:[/b]
Born and raised in exactly the year 1251, it was thus a time in which great legends were common name and Chiyo found herself in a world of strife and conflict. Because of her origin in the 12th Century, it should be noted that “Chiyo Shizune” is not her real name, but rather a chosen title for when she eventually traveled to Japan. She herself has stated that her birth name has long since been forgotten by others as well as herself.

As far as she can remember-or as far as she’s concerned-nothing of particular interest occurred until one fateful October day in 1307, or commonly known as Friday the 13th. Having been roughly 56 at the time, Chiyo found herself in close-proximity of the Crusader’s massacre site.

At that point in her history as a human, Chiyo had been accused of dark arts, and so was driven away from her initial homeland. Seeking to end her life, Chiyo stumbled upon the bloodied corpses and, in one final act against God’s will, drank the essence of the fallen knights.

Little did she know that a fair amount of the Templars were, in actuality, early vampires. It took some time for Chiyo to recognize that she was no longer human, but once she did, she dedicated her life to traveling the world in the belief that God gifted her with a second chance.

When hearing of a failed attempt to take over Japan in more modern times, Chiyo soon found herself scoping out the renegade vampire camp and eventually deciding to head there herself. Might as well have some fun before she ends up wasting that second chance.

[b]Skills:[/b]
Aside from the usual vampirism abilities, Chiyo is most adept in using and manipulating mist transformations. She is so skilled in this specific power alone, that it is even rumored to be next to impossible to land a physical hit on her body, and some have even claimed that she can become fully intangible.

Of course, rumors can be just that; rumors. In addition to her powers as a vampire, Chiyo is also highly adept in using knives for combat.

[b]Anything Else:[/b]
Chiyo has a habit of acting overly sadistic towards vampires and humans alike who proclaim they have no desire to live, finding their suicidal intentions as nothing short of hypocrisy. Furthermore, her favorite food is salty blood.
