Name: Nanashi
Species: Human
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Appearance: A handsome Nippon man with a man bun hairstyle. He is 5'5 foot tall wearing same outfit with Wolf in Sekiro Game but it's more on darker blue than a bright orange and with no prosthetic arm. Also wearing a mouth mask with an oni mouth design.
Bio: Nanashi wasn’t quite sure where he came from. He had a name once, a place he once called home. He might have had parents. Friends even. But ultimately, whatever these memories he once had didn’t matter. For a time, all he could remember is being alone, with nowhere to actually call home. Wandering from town to town, barely getting by. He was often sneered at by others, a lowly child begging for food. They looked at him with disgust, barely trusting the boy to hang around their sight.
The next clear memory he had was of a kind stranger One of those few and far between who saved him from attack of hostile wildlife while on the road. She was dressed in dark clothing, tight to her figure, a mask and her hair tied beneath an equally dark cloth. She was clearly hiding, so why she came to his rescue and potentially exposing herself was unknown. Regardless, the boy was grateful. It was there he started donning the name Nanashi. At least that is what the woman called him when he hadn’t a name to give.
For a time, they stayed together. The woman initially went to leave, but when she did so, Nanashi followed. Despite his lack of experience, he surprised the woman by managing to keep up with her. What he lacked in skill he made up for in potential. After doing this enough times, the woman gave up, and allowed Nanashi to travel with her, taking him in as an apprentice. There she told the boy her name was Shu.
The following decade, Nanashi trained with Shu. They were always on the move. It never bothered Nanashi, since he had been traveling his entire life whether voluntarily or not. Shu trained Nanashi to take care of himself, defend himself, and to not require the charity of others again. That potential Shu saw when Nanashi first wouldn’t leave her alone blossomed into formidable skill.
Slowly Shu revealed details of her life. First was that her name was really Eiko. Then it was revealed that the reason she ran was to avoid assassins sent after her. For a time, she lived in Nippon, becoming a warrior there. She served several generations of a noble family. But her notoriety made it that much more difficult to leave. She grew increasingly displeased with the way those noble families ran the lands. She was punished for being vocal, so one day she turned on the family and fled Nippon. In some ways she was responsible for the power that family amassed and even decades later it showed. The family still sent skilled assassins to track Eiko down and kill her for her transgressions. She spoke of a land from the place of her birth. A lush land of unknown promise since it was last dealt with divine retribution. She was tired of running. In one way, she saw that land as a potential haven against the assassins, a land unknown even to most of the citizens of country it laid. The other was fascination. Always on the run, always dealing with the same threats. Perhaps it was time for her to finally find something new, something not tied to her past decisions in a country that no longer saw her as one of their own.
Sadly, despite the decades of evading the ever persistent retaliation from Nippon, both Eiko and Nanashi were confronted by some of these assassins. Eiko was able to deal with them before, but over time, it became more difficult as these assassins were coming evermore skilled, matching even her. Even with Nanashi at her side, Eiko was unable to escape these assassins. Blood was spilled on both sides, and eventually Eiko won out once again. However, it was not without cost. Eiko was mortally wounded. She lay bleeding, barely conscious. Despite Nanashi’s best efforts, he was not able to stop the bleeding, nor were they anywhere near anyone who could help. She passed in his Nanashi’s arms.
Saddened by the loss of the only person who had shown him kindness, Nanashi wept for the first and last time from mere sorrow. He built a pyre, said few words, and when the smoldering stopped he collected the ashes. He commissioned an urn the next town he entered. He continued his journey across the mainland towards this land of twilight he heard Eiko speak of multiple time. He knew nothing about this land, which was about as much as Eiko knew herself. But he saw it fitting for it to be her last resting place.
