[b]Name:[/b] Noboru Shibata [b]Age:[/b] 166 [b]Height:[/b] 5'2" [b]Weight:[/b] 218lbs [b]Powers/Abilities[/b] [u]Oni[/u] Noboru is an oni, a brutish youkai similar to trolls, ogres or demons. They can be good or bad, but they mostly just stick to their own, neutral affairs. What those affairs are depends on what kind of oni in question it is. What remains constant is the inhuman strength and propensity towards eating people possessed by their kind. Their weaknesses are holly leaves and exorcisms. Noboru is of the variety that punishes mortal sinners by scaring them straight (or eating them, or brutalizing them. Whatever works.) and are born from the deaths of the wicked or pious. Which one of these Nobu was in his past life remains to be seen. [list][*][i]Detect Evil:[/i] Through the use of a third eye, Noboru can 'see' the accumulated sins of others in a manner not dissimilar to supernatural thermal imaging system. By focusing on one person they actually get a not-so-metaphorical read out, but looking through all the minor stuff is annoying so Noboru doesn't really use it. Without the third eye, he only gets a vague feeling of a person he focuses on. [*][i]Man-Eating:[/i] By eating human flesh or drinking human blood, he can regenerate from wounds and regain stamina at an accelerated rate. [*][i]Shapeshifting:[/i] Though not on the level of something like a kitsune, as an oni Nobu can change from a human form of either gender to a male oni form. He usually chooses something in-between, but as an oni he has red skin, longer horns, sharp claws, tiger-like teeth, and a third eye on the center of his forehead. He remains the same height/weight between forms though, and certain degrees of transformation restrict certain abilities [*][i]Supernatural Condition:[/i] He is stronger, tougher, and has a bigger appetite than any human.[/list] [u]"Super" Super Strength[/u] Noboru is an unusual one. Even considering he's an oni, he's ludicrously strong even among them. Unrestrained he can do some amazing stuff, but because he doesn't have the same degree of toughness to match, it costs him broken bones in whatever area he's using it with. To use it safely, he needs to restrict his strength to unexceptional (for an oni) but managable levels. However the fact remains that among even the mighty oni, his sheer physical strength is unmatched. He's pretty short for someone so strong, though.
