[b]Name[/b]: Fujiwara no Mokou [b]Age[/b]: At least 1300 [b]Appearance[/b]: [url=http://safebooru.donmai.us/posts/2297356]Living forever ain't as good as you think it is, y'know.[/url] [b]World of Origin[/b]: Gensokyo (Touhou Project); post-ULiL [b]Powers/Equipment[/b]: Mokou is, for lack of a better term, completely immortal in every sense of the term. After drinking the Hourai Elixir as a child, she has henceforth become completely impossible to PERMANENTLY kill. No matter how much damage her body take, lethal or otherwise, she will ALWAYS manage to recover. How long that takes, though, is another situation entirely; her regeneration factor, while abnormally high, becomes slower the more damage she takes. The amount of times she has to revive will also affect how long it takes for her to recover, ranging anywhere from a few seconds to a few days at worst. As another result of the Hourai Elixir, Mokou is unable to contract any diseases, cannot age, and does not require sustenance to exist. Food and drink are simply a luxury now. This does not MEAN, however, that Mokou cannot feel fatigue or pain. Even though the centuries of life have toughened her up considerably, in the end she's still a human, and her body still has human limits. Mostly. Mokou is also skilled in the manipulation of flames, often choosing to use a phoenix motif in her abilities because of its parallels to immortality, though she is just as free in manipulating it into whatever form she so wishes. As a resident of Gensokyo, she also abides by the spellcard rules, which means that she can fire off hordes upon hordes of bullets if the situation calls for it in the form of... Well, whatever the cards dictate. She has a variety of spellcards, and each can be used once per battle, per day. Oh, and she can fly, because Gensokyo. Her clothes are also absurdly fire-retardant; no matter what flames they're bathed in, they will always come out unscathed. Other people can also eat her liver to become immortal as well, but... Well, she'll never let anyone do something like that willingly. [b]Brief Backstory[/b]: Once a human, Mokou drank the Hourai Elixir whilst seeking revenge against Kaguya (yes, THAT Kaguya) for humiliating her father as a child. Immortality ensued. Ever since then, Mokou's been lingering on as an undying existence, eventually finding her way to Gensokyo. Looping through complete insanity before running back to sanity and repeating that cycle a few times over (along with beating the everloving crap out of Kaguya and vice versa a few times over). Following the events of Imperishable Night (aka the 'fake moon incident'), Mokou's gone back to her daily life of lounging about... Well, assuming that incidents don't directly involve her or anything. There was that [i]one[/i] time that she went out into modern-day Japan, which was... Something. Didn't learn much from the experience, though. [b]Personality[/b]: Mokou is by no means sociable; due to her immortality, she's seen many people die as time passes, and thus removes herself willingly from human society in order to avoid the everlasting pain of parting. Her age also makes her much wiser than she appears to be, though it may not always seem as such at first. She IS still human at heart, though, and is fairly altruistic in spite of what she has lived through thus far. To those who do get her to open up a bit more, Mokou is a rather blunt person, though nowhere near as hotheaded as her control of fire would USUALLY implicate. While content with her life in Gensokyo, if something piques her interest, she won't hesitate to pursue it. When she's committed, though, she goes ALL OUT. The only other thing that might cause such a reaction is killing Kaguya, because, well... Grudges. Even that's sorta gone stale, though. Having lived for so long, Mokou has also looped around from sane to insane and back again. Nothing really fazes her back home in Gensokyo, but more advanced societies... Well, those are a different story. She also understands that life is still something important and the impact of taking a life, though that doesn't mean that she much cares for her own. Dying still hurts, though. She tries to avoid it. [b]Other[/b]: Smokes. Doesn't smoke often, but smokes. The Hourai Elixir has removed all the bad side-effects, so she has no particular reason [i]not[/i] to. Can also cook fairly well. [hr] [b]Name[/b]: Sogiita Gunha [b]Age[/b]: No specific age given; estimated to be 14-17. [b]Appearance[/b]: [url=http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=45722176]When in doubt, trust your guts![/url] [b]World of Origin[/b]: To Aru Majutsu no Index [b]Powers/Equipment[/b]: As a Gemstone and one of the top espers in Academy City, Gunha's potential arsenal is... Rather large. The most relevant of this set is listed below. [list][*]Super Strength: Gunha can launch things a fair distance; for example, he launched a certain spiky-haired misfortunate high school student down a long path towards their target. [*] Pain Resistance and Increased Healing Factor: Gunha doesn't really FEEL much pain from most normal attacks and can shrug off things like, say, gunshots. Having resisted one of Misaka's larger lightning strikes and having caught one of her famous Railguns [i]with his teeth[/i], Gunha doesn't really care about that. He can also forcefully reconnect broken bones and staunch bleeding with, as he puts it, 'guts'. He can still feel pain, though; it's just the smaller stuff that really doesn't faze him. [*]Explosion Creation: In classic tokusatsu hero fashion, Gunha can create explosions of various types for different circumstances. These can be used to make a dramatic entrance or for more practical, combat-oriented purposes. [*]Attack Crash: Gunha takes a deep breath, takes a karate stance, dramatically opens his eyes and yells out the name of his signature move before launching a punch at his intended target. With enough force to damage a target over ten meters away, this attack is able to break through rubble. Gunha claims it to be psychokineis, but the truth is that even the scientists don't understand how it works. [*]Aurora Guard: In a similar fashion to his usual attack, Gunha shouts the words 'AMAZING PUNCH GUARD' and... Well, punches projectiles to the ground. Though it's not a perfect defense, it can deflect projectiles that have no real tangible form, such as electricity or lasers. [*]Enhanced Physical Capabilities: Aside from his super strength, Gunha can also move at superhuman speeds, can jump absurdly high, and... Can shout loud enough to create a shockwave that can break a fall. No, that's not a joke. [/list] [b]Brief Backstory[/b]: The No.7 Level 5 esper in Academy City, Gunha is... Well, there's not much to say about him, actually. A Gemstone whose powers even the top scientists of Academy City cannot decipher, Gunha lives his life as a sort-of normal student... Well, save for the times he jumps into incidents because of his own ideals of justice. It usually end up working out one way or another. For example, the Daihaseisai incident. ... But, well, that's super spoileriffic, so let's not go there. [b]Personality[/b]: Gunha is... A bit of an idiot. A kindhearted idiot who fights for the sake of justice, yes, but an idiot nevertheless. Incredibly hot-blooded and eager to solve issues without thinking them through first, Gunha also has a bit a tendency to get involved in messes that might not have BEEN messes in the first place. Often misunderstanding problems and context, he'll often jump into a problem with the idea that "if he has enough guts, then it'll be fine" or something like that. He's not an idiot, though; even though he may be the type to get caught up in rather strange situations, it's not as if he can't understand people or their issue. He just jumps to conclusions... Really quickly. If forced to, at least, he can stay put and TRY to work something out otherwise. [b]Other[/b]: Cites 'guts' as a solution to a lot of things. Don't think too much about it.
