[@Pyromania99]: Accepted. Anyways, Master time. [list][*][u]Name[/u]: Uehara Shou [*][u]Age[/u]: 18 [*][u]Appearance[/u]: [url=https://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=2982645]"Oh, sorry, I'm in the middle of something. Give me a moment."[/url] [*][u]Personality[/u]: Shou is a bit more sociable than one might expect, and despite his occasional weird bouts of focus or aloofness, he does have a tendency to get along with most others if given the time. He does not tend to anger easily and is often times able to keep a cool head in more stress-inducing circumstances, but that does not mean he cannot have lapses in judgement or respond to malice with malice. Due to his relatively strenuous upbringing, though, Shou is a bit of a busybody; boredom (or what he perceives as such) is the bane of his existence, and there is only so much of it that he can take before he will actively search out something interesting to use his time and effort on in lieu of laying about aimlessly. [*][u]Abilities[/u]: As a descendant of a long line of onmyoji, Shou is proficient in the creation and manipulation of Bounded Fields via the usage of ofuda. Coupled with his elemental affinity of Water, though, his Fields are able to shift in shape and location without sacrificing any defensive capabilities. Furthermore, Shou is able to layer those Bounded Fields on top of one another, further increasing their defensive capabilities, or invert them to keep whatever is inside from [i]leaving[/i] rather than [i]entering[/i]. As is standard for onmyoji, Shou is also able to create and use evil-warding talismans and charms, and, provided enough time, charms for protection or luck. Of course, the latter do not work for himself, but they are quite useful to make (and sell) when he is in need of money. Exorcism is also within his repertoire, as he can dispel lesser evil spirits with next to no work, but he is by no means able to handle anything beyond that without far more training or preparation. [*][u]History[/u]: As far as growing up went, Shou found himself walking the odd line between modernism and tradition; though his grandparents were very steadfast in attempting to raise him as they had (with all the pride and decorum that came with being from a centuries-old line of onmyoji), his parents were nowhere near as conservative. That dichotomy had brought with it an increasingly more complex set of relationships—on one hand, he had an obligation to carry on the intense training that came with his lineage. On the other, however, the allure of modern-day life (and all the luxuries and excitement that came with it) only served to push him towards a lifestyle that, at the very least, would allow him some respite from the same monotonous cycles he had drilled into him. The rapid rise of Fusang in the public eye gave Shou the perfect the solution to both of his problems. Though he was by no means a prodigy, a decade of his life being spent taking in the wisdom of his predecessors had, at the very least, allowed his parents to push his elders to let him travel overseas to study there. Not only that, but a land full of Servants, of Heroic Spirits with all their past experiences, might even allow him to find one of the founders of their craft and study under their tutelage directly. Of course, that last bit was more of a way to [i]convince[/i] his elders more than anything; Shou had no reason to pursue even more strenuous training so long as he was caught between these two ways of living. If anything, his time in a place like Fusang would only allow him to choose for himself what path to live. [*][u]Other[/u]: Surprisingly, he [i]is[/i] multilingual; as onmyoji has roots from within Chinese mysticism, learning all three languages was something half-forced onto him. He's not [i]fluent[/i] in Mandarin, but given the writing system, he can at least understand most of a piece of written Chinese if it becomes necessary.[/list] Whee surname changes.
