[hider=Keito Haneda] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/bXldJjll.png[/img] [b]Name[/b]: Keito Haneda [b]Nickname(s)[/b]: "Kei", "Detective", "Junior Detective" [b]Age[/b]: 16 [b]Gender[/b]: Male [b]Sexuality[/b]: Heterosexual [b]Appearance[/b]: That's coming soon. [b]Previous Onmyouji?[/b]: Yes, in a shrine in Kyoto linked to the Narumi Detective Agency. [b]Shikigami[/b]: [b]Sigil and Location[/b]: [b]Alignment and Fighting Style[/b]: [color=yellow][b]Yin - Earth[/b][/color] Keito is a capable fighter, employing the use of a sword or even a wooden sword as a catalyst. His catalyst can be any sword-like weapon he can get his hands on, but he has a ceremonial sword he keeps separate and uses for especially troublesome exorcism. He is generally very well-rounded being that of Earth alignment, on top of being Yin, meaning he can fulfill any role in combat. Defense, offense, or finishing blow. Uniquely he has the ability to use the other elements to a minor extent. Taking advantage of this, he generally combines them to create a more potent combination. On their own they don't seem to have much effect, but say he fortifies his weapon with Earth, and then overlaps Fire that fuels it, he creates a reaction that gives him a boost in power. He likes to announce "Best Match" whenever he does something like this. [b]Catalyst[/b]: [b]Koudouken[/b] This is a katana given to him from his previous part time in Kyoto. The weapon was made specifically for his usage, but due to common sense he can't and shouldn't take it with him unless a dire incident occurs. This weapon also has tapped into it an affinity with the earth element. It's name means "underworld sword", the kanji for "underworld" in this case also meaning simply "ground". [b]Team[/b]: [b]History[/b]: Keito grew up in Kyoto surrounded by ancient Japanese history, but he never knew he would be encountering it so intimately. A decently high grading student with an affable amount of popularity for his quiet and cool type act which is only cool in highschool, he encountered yokai in Kyoto, awakening to his third eye there, allowing him to see yokai. He was subsequently saved by the Narumi Detective Agency. He trailed them after that out of interest, but soon became convinced and took on a new part time as a supernatural detective, learning all about the other world during his time here. He worked with them unofficially after school, forgoing club activities until the end of Junior High. A lot had happened there as he watched the story of a great onmyouji and his shikigami army unfold, but soon it was time to part as his family moved to Kokona. With some help from the agency he was pointed to a particular shrine that could use some extra help. [b]Personality[/b]: Keito's good looks and cool attitude make him an easy person to admire, but in actuality he's thinking about some rather frivolous things like food and tv shows when he seems to be in deep thought. He has potential as far as detective work goes, and can line the dots when it's crunch time, as well as due to his very carefree train of thought, can summon courage quickly where others may falter. As a student he makes good scores, but never the top, he's fairly athletic besides that thanks to all the time in Kyoto running around after and against yokai. At his worst he's moody and cranky and liable to ignore others, and at his best he's quite generous without much change in attitude. He's also a big fan of hero shows, Kamen Rider specifically, and always names his killing blows in such a manner. Though he can use a sword, the way he uses it is very different to how one would've learned it in kendo. If asked he would say he learned it from watching someone. [b]Other[/b]: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU4nCXisAes]Theme Song[/url] [/center] [/hider] [hider] [b]Combos[/b] [u]Fueling Combos[/u] (Wood -> Fire) WILDFIRE - The weapon alights with intense and wild far-reaching flames for a few swings before burning away the weapon if it's made of wood. (Fire -> Earth) ASH - Usable only with a metal weapon, he can whip up a small ash storm to blind foes. (Earth -> Metal) SHRAPNEL - Upon applying, blasts the rock that make sup the blade and sprays shrapnel. (Metal -> Water) WASH WASH SLASHING - Cleans the weapon and gives it a shine. It's actually kind of useless. (Water -> Wood) OVERGROW - Allows him to increase the size of his weapon and grow it into various shapes. [b]Fading Combos[/b] (Water -> Earth) MUD - With a swing can fling mud at enemies to slow them down. (Wood -> Metal) CUTTER - Creates a wooden weapon with a steel blade out of the catalyst, making it a very light slashing weapon. (Fire -> Water) STEAM - This combo works the other way around too. Creates a steam cloud to hide with. (Earth -> Wood) FOREST - Tiny trees grow from the earthen blade, and maybe even flowers. It's a bit heavy and doesn't serve much of a purpose. (Metal -> Fire) TEMPERING - Creates a tempered and fine steel weapon. It's also dangerously hot. [b]Reverse Combos[/b] (Earth -> Fire) MOLTEN - Only lasts a single swing and destroys the catalyst if it's wooden or flammable. Flings hot earth at enemies that burns and hardens. (Metal -> Earth) DIAMOND - Earth is applied over the metal, creating a dense and heavy mineral-like quality for a heavy-hitting weapon. (Metal -> Water) FROST - Applying cold water and then by extension ice creates a freezing blade. [/hider]
