gonna post my work-in-progress, maybe it'll help others get the gears turning ^^ [hider=Child of The White Wolf God] [center][color=c1cdcd]_______________________________________________________________[/color] [color=c1cdcd]____________________________________________________________[/color] [img]https://img.roleplayerguild.com/prod/users/d9a473db-64f4-4c16-afcd-71034cf3c542.jpg[/img] [color=c1cdcd]____________________________________________________________[/color] [color=c1cdcd]_______________________________________________________________[/color][h1][color=c1cdcd]Shizuko Kamibe[/color][/h1][/center] [indent][right][b][color=c1cdcd]Age[/color][/b][/right] [right][i]20[/i][/right] [right][b][color=c1cdcd]Appearance[/color][/b][/right] Describe them here if you don't have an image. I don't have a preference for either one, so feel free to use this as well if you just can't be bothered finding an image. [right][b][color=c1cdcd]Personality[/color][/b][/right] Be a little descriptive with this one, but a lot of personality will be evident with how you play your character. [right][b][color=c1cdcd]History[/color][/b][/right] Backstory time! You can combine Personality and History into a single Biography section, if you so wish. (Side note, if you're planning on keeping secrets within your backstory, know that you don’t necessarily have to tell me if it's not going to be immediately relevant. You don't necessarily have to tell me about it at all, unless you think it may need approval for some element which might impact the world as a whole.)

Each of them also possesses a deep-rooted well of spiritual energy fueled by the ancient anger of Horkew Kamuy himself, which can manifest itself differently in each of his children. In Shizuko, this well of energy manifests in raw physicality when she manages to unleash it. In addition, children of Horkew Kamuy enjoy enhanced senses and physicality in their human form, and can also shapeshift into the form of a wolf. [indent][sub][color=c1cdcd]•[/color] Anger Unbinding: In combination with her natural affinity towards [i]Seihon[/i], Shizuko can perform a short ritual that unleashes her well of ancestral spiritual energy. Unleashing this energy transforms her body into that of a large, animalistic beast much akin to what some would call a "Werewolf". In this form it takes an immense amount of willpower to control her actions, but in exchange she gains monstrous strength and durability, and powerful regenerative abilities. [color=c1cdcd]•[/color] Wolf-kin Body: Shizuko is capable of shifting into the body of a seemingly mundane Hokkaido wolf with snow-white fur. This form is mostly ritualistic in nature, but can find use on the field occasionally. [color=c1cdcd]•[/color] Enhanced Physicality: In her human form, Shizuko's strength and agility are both increased by approximately twenty percent, making her more physically capable than her unassuming stature might suggest. She has an oddly profound sense of coordination that seems out of place in a human body. [color=c1cdcd]•[/color] Enhanced Senses: Shizuko's senses are also enhanced in her human form, offering her impressively acute senses of smell, sight, and hearing, akin to that of a wolf. [/sub][/indent] [right][sub][i][color=c1cdcd]Arts Specifics[/color][/i][/sub][/right][color=c1cdcd]▸ [color=white]Seihon[/color] ◂[/color] Shizuko's heritage grants her affinity towards the [i]Seihon[/i] school of arts, which allows her a number of restrictive and protective maneuvers alike. She uses this school in a unique way at times, especially when she unleashes her ancestral powers - reverse-engineering its teachings, one could say. [indent][sub][color=c1cdcd]•[/color] [Signature Spell] Spiritual Rend: Shizuko's digits can manifest ethereal claws that she uses to sunder the otherworldly effects of her foes. From rending attacks apart to disabling delicate runes or traps, these claws have a multitude of defensive uses. [color=c1cdcd]•[/color] [Signature Spell] Ethereal Shackles: Shizuko can summon sets of energy-stifling shackles. These otherworldly irons inflict upon the detainee a sort of sluggishness(unless they are deemed an ally by Shizuko), and prevents them from using extraordinary means of escape(such as teleportation, intangibility, body alteration, etc.). The shackles can be broken by Yokai if enough effort is applied. [color=c1cdcd]•[/color] [Signature Spell] Wolfwill: Shizuko can summon up to two 'shields' of transparent energy, each being able to take up two square meters(21 square feet) of space. These 'shields' can take any shape Shizuko wishes, and are particularly well-suited for blocking spiritual/magical attacks. Unfortunately the resistance they offer against physical threats is little more than that of a shōji screen, but they have the special ability to flash-chill or lacerate attackers that break them. [color=c1cdcd]•[/color] [Ritual] Spiritual Shell: Shizuko can employ this ritual to provide those affected a protective shield that they trigger at will to cleanse themselves of all current magical debuffs or maladies. This shield will trigger automatically should the protectee be afflicted with magic cancellation or any form of mind control. There are a few components to this ritual, which include an animal shell(be it a shed snake or insect skin, a turtle shell, etc.), a drop of blood from each protectee, and a soft-pointed star-shaped rune to stand in. [/sub][/indent] [color=c1cdcd]▸ [color=white]Gishiki[/color] ◂[/color] Children of The White Wolf God are usually well-learned in the art of diplomacy between Gods and spirits, seeking to keep healthy relationships with them and never wishing to step upon their toes. [right][b][color=c1cdcd]Relationships[/color][/b][/right] - Optional Feel free to add any existing relationships your character may have to other characters. This goes for before the RP and during the RP, it'll be nice if you keep it updated but it's likely something we'd remember anyway, which is why it's optional. [right][b][color=c1cdcd]Other[/color][/b][/right] Anything else you can think of which isn't covered by this template. [/indent][/hider]
