[hider=The White Snake] [center][color=#B20707][h3]нαкυ ғυмιнιяσ[/h3]白 文広[/color] [sub][color=#B20707]۵[/color] ~100 yrs. old [color=#B20707]۵[/color] Male [color=#B20707]۵[/color] Yokai [color=#B20707]۵[/color][/sub] [img]https://img.roleplayerguild.com/prod/users/e2b81477-cc91-4a11-816c-d755fb659953.jpg [/img] [I]His red eyes could be considered his most striking feature, considering his hair is jet-black and he rarely wears anything but the traditional gakuran uniform. Across his upper abdomen and chest is a detailed snake tattoo, but it's rarely ever seen. [/I][/center] [color=#B20707][u]Personality:[/u][/color] On the outside proper, on the inside cold and calculating, Haku lives by his own rules -- he rarely does things without proper consideration or thought beforehand, although at the same time, these decisions seem random and mystifying to others. He will go to any lengths to achieve his goals, and although he will present himself with politeness, directly after this he will not hesitate to eliminate you if you stand in his way. [color=#B20707][u]Abilities:[/u][/color] Haku is the spirit of a white snake, and as such, he possesses several snake-like abilities -- most often, he simply summons his snakes to carry out his bidding. He can summon up to 4 small black snakes all which use their venomous bites and constriction to subdue enemies. He also possesses his own venom, which he stores in a collection of needles he carries on his person at all times, all with slightly different effects, like hallucination or paralysis. As a last resort, he can revert to his primal form, that of a large, white snake with red eyes, but he prefers not to do so. [color=#B20707][u]Skills:[/u][/color] Haku is a skilled marksman, a clever tactician, and prefers to work from the shadows, giving him excellent awareness and reflexes. He's not overly physically strong, at least not in his human form. He's also taken up acupuncture in his free time -- using un-poisoned needles, of course. [color=#B20707][u]Equipment:[/u][/color] [I]Gakuran Uniform:[/I] His normal wear. He hides his snakes and needles inside. [I]Throwing Needles:[/I] A collection of needles imbued with various types of venoms. [I]Black Snakes:[/I] When not in use, they take the form of paper snakes tucked in the inside of his coat. [color=#B20707][u]Backstory:[/u][/color] Like the white snake of Chinese folklore, Haku is a snake spirit searching for the secret to immortality, among other things. Raised in a family of yokai, Haku was treated coldly during his youth as a spirit, often locked up or abandoned for long periods of time, with only his snakes as company. This led him to develop summoning powers as an attempt to impress his grandfather, the head of the household. After an attack on the family home, the remaining members of his family split up and spread aross the land, and all rarely communicate with each other. He hopes to obtain immorality to prove himself worthy as the head of the family and unify his clan once again, and has migrated to Minazawa in pursuit of this goal. During his time at Minazawa, he hasn't made much of a stir, preferring to gather intel and strike when he's sure of his plan's safety. Known to frequent gambling parlors and small, family-owned businesses, due to his fondness of "observing" familial bonds. [/hider] Dialogue Color: [color=b20707]#B20707[/color] (again!) As seen in: Like, one post of [url=https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/178912-midnight-illusion-town-an-urban-fantasy-rp/ic]Midnight Illusion Town.[/url] [color=white]𝒩𝑜𝓉𝑒𝓈:[/color] Remember how I said Haku is just Cassius Ver. 2? Well, yeah, except Haku is cooler. They even have the same dialogue color! I think the snake idea is a bit better than just "he's a vampire lol," and I'm disappointed the rp died so quickly. Would I play again: [color=b20707]㊊㊊㊊㊊[/color]㊊
