The fact that he's not exactly trying to be the best martial artist. He kinda lost that motivation a while ago.

Ah, haha! Well, I wouldn't say Yaozu would hate him for that. Yao doesn't really care about what others do as a martial artist - all he cares about is if he could beat a challenger if they proved themselves strong. Though Yaozu would regard Hikaru as a 'weak' fighter, that does not mean Yao would dismiss him and they could even possibly be friends if they wanted to. :)

And hm, those are pretty good options. But before choosing, I'd say we should have some time for everyone to interact with each other and develop some backbone before rushing the plot towards a dilemma. That's just my two cents though. :) I'm happy to flow with whatever the group decides.

EDITED: I also updated my CS, officially made Yaozu walk the path of Kurai and added his magic abilities. LostSamurai, let me know if I need to change anything. :)


[hider=Yaozu's Magic Abilities]
1.) [url=http://i.imgur.com/Dq6FYNr.jpg]Shadow Cloak:[/url] Mystical shadow envelops Yaozu, giving him a boost to defense. Although the resistance is fairy weak compared to other magic-based armor, its true power lies in its ability to induce illusions thru afterimage to confuse his opponents, as the Cloak gives Yaozu and ethereal-like and hazy appearance.

2.) [url=http://i.imgur.com/5fiDT9p.jpg]Black Flames[/url]: Yaozu can manifest flames of blackness to his hands and feet. This enhances his offensive power, as it gives him the ability to impact his hits with cauterizing force. It burns fiercely and brilliantly when activated.

3.) [url=http://i.imgur.com/cCRiNn0.jpg?1]Shadow Breath[/url]: A powerful and primal technique that dispenses a lot of Yaozu's Kurai energy. Usually used as an ultimate move or sure-hit finisher. To prepare it, Yaozu must internalize a great amount of energy and condense it, which puts a lot of strain on his body. The longer he charges, the more devastating it is and the more it cripples his body.
