And I finally drop the other character I've been working on for a few days. Kagayaku Seige I was inspired by our GM's character sheet. Just a heads up-- GIFS ahead. [hider= Kagayaku] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/k4zngxM.gif[/img] [h1][b][u]Kagayaku Seige[/u][/b][/h1] [b][u][i]Informal or Preferred Name[/i][/u][/b] Suzaku [i][u][b]Age[/b][/u][/i] 19 [u][i][b]Birth Place[/b][/i][/u] Jappon [u][i][b]Birth Date [/b][/i][/u] 06/28 [u][i][b]Gender Or Preferred Pronoun[/b][/i][/u] Male. He. [u][i][b]Height & Weight[/b][/i][/u] 5'10", 159lbs [u][i][b]Notable Physical Attributes[/b][/i][/u] [b]Unique Physiology.[/b] A biological gift passed down from several generations of his forgotten family. Kagayaku possesses a superior physicality. One that speaks of a monstrous obsession. Kagayaku was born with highly flexible and densely packed muscles. This is also accompanied by a special hormone introduced into the spine that accelerates the processing of sensory information. After a time if he focused hard enough he could perceive the world and others with true clarity. He could see the muscle moving beneath the skin, discern an action from the minute movements of the body. Effectively, he was a superhuman in most regards.

Believed to be a Demon Child by seaside villages, Hunters were hired to investigate the skeptical tales by Jappon officials. The Hunters soon encountered the wild child surviving deep in the forest of the mountainside. Bound to his ancestral land by a Nen Curse. When the Hunters arrived, Kagayaku was quick to assault them. Whether it was intentional or forced was never clarified but it was a nen-infused punch to the gut that ended their battle. Consequently, the attack opened his aura nodes and loosened his Nen Curse.

He instinctively took to Ten and Ren near the beginning of his training with his Nen Master. After intuitively re-creating a lost Martial Art known as Rekai Shiki; his primary mode of focus became slow repetitive forms of said Martial Art. Later, advance exercises to strengthen his aptitude in Emission-type Nen was soon added to his regime. In practicing those grueling sets he polished his basics at an accelerated rate. He wound up learning Ko, Ken, and Ryu mid-combat and mastered them soon afterwards. It soon became apparent that his talent and potential would surpass his Masters sooner than expected.

A bare-fisted, close-quarters combat style, Rekai Shiki utilizes the knuckles, fist, elbows, and feet to deliver explosive damage to vital points. Enhanced by his aura and application of Ken and Ryu, his strikes have power far exceeding seasoned Hunters. With his Emission skills tacked on, Kagayaku is capable of sending the force of his strikes through the air in straight lines. These attacks are restricted from exceeding 30ft from his point of impact and their destination must be pinpointed. This effectively gave him a sustainable method of mid-long range combat as well. [list][*][b][i]Impact Echo.[/i][/b] His signature attack. Amplified by the condition of physical contact, Impact Echo is a powerful physical strike followed by an impact of aura 2 times stronger than the original.[/list] [Hider=Specialization] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/8AFr6aW.gif[/img][/center][b][i]Rengoku cruelly toying with his opponent.[/i][/b] [b]Ancestral Parasite - Rengoku.[/b] A parasitic type Nen Curse developed by the legendary Nen User, Rengoku over 400 years ago. Strengthen and bound by a deep resolve and extenuating conditions, this ability carries his spirit over to suitable descendants through a network of aura and genetics. In reality Rengoku slaughtered his entire clan, all but his youngest sister, and offered her sanctity up to experience spiritual immortality. Under the condition of shaving 10 years off his host's life, Rengoku can manifest himself whenever possible. When manifested ancient scars are carved into Kagayaku's flesh. [list][*][i][b]Ancestral Hatsu & Aura.[/b][/i] 400 years ago was an era of constant strife and war. Individuals who could utilize aura was known as Nen Warriors. Rengoku in particular was famed for his Hatsu: [i]Hollow Garden[/i]. A specialization-type technique that activates along with his 30m En. Within that domain, Rengoku's aura is amplified and his attacks are drawn or attracted to his opponent(s). Due to being a parasite to Kagayaku, his Hollow Garden utilizes Ruling Chaos as its primary form of combat. Rengoku's aura has been describe as being particularly malevolent and frenzied.[/list] [/hider][/hider] [u][i][b]Weapons or Equipment[/b][/i][/u] None. [u][i][b]Trained Skills or Knowledge[/b][/i][/u] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/X6rdzuL.gif[/img][/center][b][i]Kagayaku's 2nd Nen Teacher fighting.[/i][/b] [i][b]Rekai Shiki.[/b][/i] A martial form devoted to mastering the human form and combative potentials. Though lost at one point, Kagayaku managed to put the original martial art back together. Originally the concept came onto Kagayaku while applying his sight to combat practice with his 1st Nen Master. Noticing the precision of the strikes, his 2nd Master eventually went on to rebuild the Rekai Shiki martial form while using Kagayaku's direct freeform strikes. Rekai Shiki is grounded in an exaggerated understanding of a old flowing reactive style called: Receptive Heart Style, Rekai Shiki goes on to apply aggressive strikes towards shatter points while allowing a great deal of variation from one style to the other. What makes a marital form Rekai Shiki is the inhuman precision and intensity of one's strike aimed at the aura nodes of the body. [u][i][b]Notable Scars or Physical Appearance Traits[/b][/i][/u] Kagayaku's face bears two symmetrical cuts beneath his eyes. How he obtained them is unknown. Outside of this his eyes are typical a light brown but occasionally they seem to lose all color. He appears scrawny but his body is a finely carved sculpture of honed muscle. [u][i][b]Notable Personality Traits/Personality[/b][/i][/u] Kagayaku is a stoic person riddled with guilt but following a strong sense of justice. He strays from human contact, afraid that his "Nen Curse" might harm someone while actively seeking out conflicts to resolve. In search of redemption perhaps or a cure to his affliction, he throws himself into danger time after time. This reckless behavior has persisted, often time having him blindly rushing to save another's life.

Many had believed him feral but Kagayaku was not devoid of knowledge. He had known that eventually warriors would set out to kill him for following a urge he never quite understood. The urge came upon him the summer his mother went fatally ill, living him their ancestral home to tend to. For a time he did that without question, laboring to keep the deterioration from completely bringing the place to ruin. But when a man from the nearby village had strayed too close, he awoke with his knuckles bloody and a trail of crimson leading away from the home. After the confusion turned to fear and fear turned into loneliness, what was happening became obvious. He was madly attacking anyone who drew too close. Why he was doing that would be hidden until Orgus and Rok appeared one wintery night. Kagayaku remembered seeing them that morning, just beyond the estate's border. He even remembered waving to the enigmatic Orgus and thinking that he had a kind air about him. Later that night however, he would be awakened by a gut-crushing punch and to Rok standing over him. They had been 60m outside his ancestral home, amidst a field of disturbed snow and broken timber. Orgus held kindness in his black eyes as he offered Kagayaku an explanation that seemed unbelievable. A Nen Parasite or a "Soul" was attached to him, guiding his actions during his black outs. Orgus went on about teaching him Nen, adopting him too, and even if the Nen Parasite was in fact a Nen Curse. He spoke absently about how Kagayaku's soon-to-be family was handful but that it was a "helluva family to be apart of." That was perhaps one of the last times, Kagayaku had shed tears. At the age of 17, donning rags with long unkempt hair, Kagayaku was adopted into the Seige family. [hider=Continuation] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/zXdZ3oz.gif[/img][/center][b][i]Rok Seige assisting Orgus in training Kagayaku[/i][/b] After Kagayaku adjusted to the family back in Begerose, Orgus wasted little time in having him join Bud, Petal, and Sindaraya in Nen training. Bud and Petal who ecstatically gave him tips were the ones who pointed out his insane growth rate. Sindaraya on the other hand begun to loath the attention, Orgus was paying to him. A month into training and it was Rok who pointed out the specifics of his Nen Curse and discovered the "Soul" latched on to him. That discovery was followed by a sharp decline in the speed of his training. Orgus withdrew for a time and it was Rok who took up the torch in training him. Rok's methods were unorthodox, they would go into the wilderness and practice advanced techniques like Ken, Gyo, Ryu, and Ko, only to activate Zetsu the instant he was to make contact with his target. That took him three months to master fully and in that time, Rok had grown fond of Kagayaku. When they returned Orgus had two sets of luggage packed at the gates of the Iron Blooded Orphanage, his own and Kagayaku's. The two of them were headed off on a separate training trip. Once they made it back Jappon, Orgus had Kagayaku face his past. Though the villagers weren't ready to forgive him, the kindness of an elderly lady redeemed him partly. After staying in the village for a month, finding work at Lewis & Co, and searching for people to help sporadically, Orgus started taking Kagayaku back up to his ancestral home. The trek went slow at first, anxious and fearful, Kagayaku had to take breaks to control his panic attacks. [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/baKpIAZ.gif[/img][/center][b][i]Rengoku meeting Orgus for the first time.[/i][/b] Returned to his make-shift prison, Orgus and Kagayaku preceded to spar till the sun went down. It was during these daily sessions that Kagayaku learned that Orgus had been more-or-less crippled when it came to Nen. He could put up a fight but fluidly transitioning from one technique to the other was beyond him. In fact, it was nigh-impossible. Which was why, during their intense sessions, Kagayaku was to use Zetsu right before impact. Nearly a year into his training with Orgus, Kagayaku begun to develop what Rok would later call Rekai Shiki. Not too long after that, Orgus would be physically crippled by a merciless Rengoku. After getting Orgus to the local clinic, Kagayaku called Rok and explained what he believed happened before booking a undisclosed flight to the southern hemisphere of the known world. Where he would protect his family from himself.[/hider] [u][i][b]Theme Song[/b][/i][/u] [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PlSTjgcpa8]Something in The Way[/url][/center] [/hider]
