[b]Name[/b]: Kisheto Yashime [b]Age[/b]: 19 [b]Gender[/b]: Male [b]Birthplace[/b]: Vantus, Capitol of Valira [b]Current Home[/b]: Sovereign, Sector C (lower class) [b]Personality:[/b] Kisheto is, in general, an optimistic and overconfident individual. The very light hearted manner in which he perceives any given situation drives his tendency to take things for granted. Although his overconfidence doesn't cause any form of narcisistic or egotistical nature, it does sometimes cause him to overestimate his abilities. The reason for it is simply a subliminal desire to be acknowledged and regarded as something beyond what he is - a forgotten drifter in the slums of Sovereign. Due to a lack of direct parenting, he sometimes has strange reactions to given situations that result in negative consequences more often than not. However, despite his desire to prove to the world that one can achieve simply through determination, he values others and their ambitions. He believes the best way to progress through your struggle is to share it with those who care for you, and in turn take some of their pain upon yourself. It is this belief that creates his ultimate weakness: loneliness. [b]Bio:[/b] Kisheto was born to Korseth Yashime, a strong willed and handsome man who was the Head of Agriculture in Vantus. Korseth loved his homeland and was known to be the kind to fight for it if needed. In fact, Korseth had plans to enlist in the noble Gaian military, but decided not to for unknown reasons. Instead, at the age of 22, he took up farming. His parents were both politicians, but Korseth hated it. He aspired to become like Rugo - a strong, independent working man who is loved by his comrades and brethren. After years of toiling on the farmlands of Vantus, Korseth was finally recognized for his ability to protect and enhance the farms - both through force and an amazing sense of diplomacy. It was said he could have easily became mayor, but he refused to do so in fear of losing his friends. No, he remained a working man - toiling day in and day out under the same unforgiving sun as his other fellow farmers. The farms brought upon another miracle for Korseth: Nora Lok'eeth. She was the sister of Korseth's best friend, who tragically died due to a horrible incident in Vantus involving bandits that refused to leave the town alone. Nora mourned little - instead she suppressed her emotions and taking up her deceased brother's work in honor of his memory. Her fierce attitude attracted Korseth. He saw a beautiful woman in her, tormented by her anger for the bandits. He believed this anger was used to mask the sorrow she was drowning in. Korseth never hesitated to work alongside her and assist her, and soon enough, after many deep conversations, she fell in love with him. He instantly fell in love with her, too, during a night in which every emotion seemed to let loose as the pained woman broke the seal on her suppressed feelings. It wasn't long before the two married and, eventually, cried in joy at the birth of Kisheto. However, tragedy soon befell the couple, burying the happiness that had managed to brighten Korseth's quickly dulling life. Nora was soon declared death due to unknown complications - only mere hours after Kisheto's birth. Korseth broke on the inside, feeling nothing but weakness in his shattered soul. Kisheto's birth and existence was the very thin thread that prevented him from cutting off his ties to the living world. =+=+=+=+ =+=+=+=+ Kisheto loved his father more than anything in the world. He saw his father as the very icon of integrity and honor. When ever any child would make fun of Kisheto (usually for one of the many stupid things he would say) Kisheto would always have the same response: [i]What would dad do....?[/i] Once he became more sensible of his surroundings and society, he decided that he would aim to gain as much wisdom from his father and then set off to join the Gaian military like Korseth once aspired to. Korseth loved his son's determination and fully backed his dream with routine training and conditioning. To Kisheto, Korseth was the bridge to adulthood. However, things began to turn towards the dark for Korseth once more. As the Vantus Government was reorganized with a new Mayor, corruption quickly ensued. Korseth hated the new group of leaders that would decide the future of Vantus and things took a turn for the worse. When Kisheto turned 15, Korseth was on the verge of bankruptcy, and Kisheto decided that he would remain by his father's side to help bring in some more revenue and in turn, save him from his financial struggle. But it was to no avail, as Korseth was eventually forced to take Kisheto to the travel hub outside of Vantus. Kisheto was somewhat shaken by his father's tension and anxiety. Kisheto, who was extremely reluctant and uncooperative at the time, wanted nothing more than to give up his dream and work by his father. But his father dismissed him and sent him off to Sovereign, with money that Kisheto could not explain the existence of. The whole ordeal was disorienting to Kisheto - an abrupt departure to an unknown city. He felt his father was abandoning him, but shook his thoughts as he awaited boarding the shuttle. The last memory of his father, however, was the flashing image of Korseth's face displayed across every screen in the travel hub. The image was displayed among deep red letters spelling out the words: "Traitor." Kisheto was never able to explain why his father was accused of treason - not even to this day, in which he roams the streets of Sovereigns, not much more than a homeless teenager. Without an income, he resides in multiple shelters scattered across the beautiful city. He is constantly moving, never stopping at the same shelter as he refuses to be seen in a homeless shelter more than once. From a hard working farmer boy to a petty thief in the slums of sovereign - Kisheto treads the path of a vagabond with a forgotten ambition that itches to reignite.

[b]Theme Song[/b]: [url=http://youtu.be/NlmezywdxPI]Survival - Eminem[/url] ----------------------- [b]Kage Name[/b]: Zodin [b]Kage Primary Power[/b]: [url=http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Aether_Manipulation]Aether Manipulation[/url] : Zaydin's main ability. Aether manipulation is very broad, but in this case, it isn't the whole "immortal, onmipotent, god" status that the wiki makes it out to be. Instead, Zaydin has control over the element of Aether itself on all three planes, but in terms of physical projection. Aether itself is the final element - the middle ground between matter and energy that is said to be the element of the spirits. Zaydin can utilize this energy to shift it into various forms, resulting in a physical, tangible state of Aether. However the kick comes with his ability to maintain it's properties. Instead of invincibility, it served as an extremely strong defense. Instead of creating life, it allows Zaydin to heal almost instantaneously. Instead of controlling the very Essence of the spiritual realm, Zaydin is able to tap into an insane amount of spirit. Basically, an extremely watered down version of basic Aether manipulation. However, Kisheto's grasp on this power is extremely flawed. For starters, humans are literally unable to feel the third level of Aether - that is, the plane of spirits and divine entities. Thus, Zaydin must constantly burn spirit to recreate his element in a form that humans can understand- the first level. Furthermore, Kisheto can only speed up his healing instead of simply regenerate instantaneously. While Kisheto can control Aether, he is unable to do so without a stable center of balance. This means he can't be shooting Aether arrows while in the air or doing a back flip (or some other over anime-esque shit). Finally, Kisheto cannot influence another Kage's spirt levels as Zaydin once was able to, but the power that he expressed has a similar effect. He is able to "sense" the spiritual emissions of other kages and communicate with them if they are willing. To add to that, he is also able to focus in on human spirits that aren't bonded to a kage, meaning he can understand the intent of a normal human to an extent by judging fluctuations in their spirit (kind of like [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Negative_Emotions_Sensing]Negative Emotion Sensing[/url]). [b]Kage Secondary Power[/b]: Aether Prime - "Aether Prime" is a very special ability that Kisheto uses once he gains a strong control of his hidden abilities. It is drawn from his Kage's ability, so it isn't much of a "secondary" ability as it is a "sub ability". Actually, Aether Prime is just a beefed up version of an ability every host has, but is unsure of how to use. A "prime" form is usually when a kage takes full control of the human body and achieved it's maximum level of spirit. This allows for the human to accomplish things otherwise impossible and express his or her powers to a much greater express (although it is really the kage expressing them). In "Aether Prime", Kisheto and Zaydin tweak the Prime form in which the host and kage become one- the body is shared evenly between both entities as well as each entities spirit. While most hosts can only access a portion of their Kage's spirits, Kisheto is then able to access exactly 50% of it. In this form, Kisheto dawns an Ethereal armor that is shown in the pictures above. He is also able to create an Aether Blade (also listed and shown above) that is Zaydin's signature weapon manifested in the human world. [b]Kage Personality/Description:[/b] Zaydin is a quiet and mysterious individual who seems to like progress. Both the progress of the individual and the progress of said individual's cause or society. He likes to think things through and often wanders off into deep thought, which usually confuses the hell out of Kisheto. However, he maintains a certain stern demeanor and rarely talks to Kisheto unless an emergency arises.
