[hider=Ishigo] [b]Name[/b]: Ishigo [b]Age[/b]: 27 [b]Gender[/b]: Male [b]Birthplace[/b]: Valira [b]Current Home[/b]: Sovereign, Golden Mercenary Base [b]Personality:[/b] Ishigo knows only one true ally: silence. He views the world with mysterious eyes, always in deep thought regardless of what he is doing. His peers, all belonging in the Golden mercenaries, tell him his mind is rarely on Aeros, although he is somehow able to accomplish anything with full focus. It isn't absent mindedness, no, rather, it is a very peculiar sense of passive interaction. He is the type to learn through observation and patience. Lots and lots of patience. However, under his mysterious demeanor is a very caring side, devoted solely to the well being of the innocent. Justice is his weapon, silence is his ally, and peace is his motive. Ishigo invigorates a sense of discipline and tranquility in those around him and is known to be great and understanding the intent and emotions of the subjects of his interaction. [b]Bio:[/b] Ishigo didn't cry at birth. Nor did he shed a tear at his mother's death. His father never spoke to him for the sheer joy of speaking to his beloved son. No, Ishigo's father knew off the bat that Ishigo was mature far beyond his age. Instead of neglecting his son, Ishigo's father's choice to remain passive during his growth was more of a respectful notion. Everyone - "friends" and teachers alike - knew he was different. Strange, almost. But Ishigo didn't mind, in fact, he loved the peace it brought him. He didn't have to worry about drama, pain, loss, or anything. He simply did his duties and made sure those around him never strayed into harm. His father, despite being judged for not interacting with his son enough, actually had a strong pride of his progeny. Ishigo knew this and respected his father the same. If there was one friend that Ishigo ever truly had, it was Hector Esteves., whom he had known since birth. It was this friendship that led to Ishigo's decision to informally join the Golden Mercenaries, which were run by Hector's brother. Ishigo, at age 8, boarded Hector's shuttle to Sovereign, where he enlisted in the Y.D.A (Youth Disciplinary Academy). The academy was designed to nurture young boys into disciplined young men, and eventually, into mature, capable individuals of the world. Hector and Ishigo both spent their time training and advancing through ranks, until Hector eventually dropped out to officially join the Golden Mercenaries with his brother. Ishigo was neither disappointed or proud of the choice, as he had hoped to graduate together, but eventually, he too left the academy in order to peacefully wander around Sovereign, an unspoken vigilante. His friendship with Hector provided him with a shelter at the Golden Mercenary base, but he spent most of his time roaming the rooftops, observing the living, breathing city, and doing what he could to keep it safe, [b]Appearance[/b]: [url=http://img-cache.cdn.gaiaonline.com/af3f5a57cd0c0ae1e14e2ed7cb16c677/http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/oo145/billkaulitzfanforever13/Anime%20guys/OC__voodoo_ninja_by_Ninjatic.jpg]Ishigo[/url] [b]Special Traits/Weapons[/b]: -Really agile, jumps really high, and moves like a light weight -Strikes really fast, able to block really fast as well -Doesn't take hits well, but rarely takes them -Super chill [b]Theme Song[/b]: [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1xXYeNrW9k]Till I Collapse - Eminem[/url] ----------------------- [b]Kage Type[/b]: Kamikage [b]Kage Name[/b]: Jin [b]Kage Primary Power[/b]: Shadow Binding - To prevent confusion, Jin refers to his powers as "Shadow Binding." In actuality, it's principles revolve around using tier 2 elements (those that haven't been perceived by mankind, but are not in the spiritual realm) to drastically slow down photons, which are the particles that govern visible light on the electromagnetic spectrum. As a result, the very light that would usually connect with one retina's to produce an image is held back, creating "blind spots". These blind spots are often mistaken for moving shadows, as they can take any form that Jin can (within his power) mold them to, all by pinpointing various photons to slow down by the billions. The catch, however, is Jin's ability to intertwine the tier 2 element, which he simply refers to as "Shadow" within the space between each photon. The element itself is a celestial matter that has physical properties, including selective materialization. Simply put - you can feel those "blind spots", which are just concentrations of slowed photons. The misconception is then created that the shadows come to life. Jin can use "shadows" for both offense and defense, but primarily as a temporarily cloak for Ishigo. [b]Kage Secondary Power[/b]: Shadow Tethering - This is a sub-ability, derived from Jin's primary power. When the photon's are slowed down, creating the "living shadow", Jin can use his spirit (a great deal, actually) to change the direction of the photons in order to send them into places where light is unavailable, or in other words, [i]actual shadows.[/i] As a result, the "blind spots" that Jin creates can connect to other actual shadows (absences of light) and let the celestial tier 2 element manifest around the single photon found in the absence of light. Simply put, his shadows can connect with actual shadows and allow for an easy method of generating the celestial element which he refers to shadow. So basically, MORE SHADOWS! [b]Kage Personality/Description:[/b] Jin is rather humble and reserved. He's the type of kage that occasionally will crack a joke and surprise Ishigo, making him laugh (which he would otherwise never do). He has a distinct love for humanity, derived from his curiosity at their development. He is an older kage, something he takes pride in, and often indulges in tales of the past, including stories of what he observed in the human realm long before Ishigo existed. It is the progress and advancement that humanity made - out of the era of war and bloodshed - that drives Jin's desire to accept human's as brother entities. [/hider]
