Name: Daichi Kawamoto
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Appearance: Standing at an unimposing 5'9" with his scruffy brown hair, most people probably wouldn't peg Daichi as anything more than a background character. His clothing is fairly unassuming, as well; in that regard, he's fairly difficult to pick out in a crowd... So long as you choose to ignore the fact that he's almost always wearing a sports visor with a picture of some sort of anime character on it, regardless of the time, season, or weather. Nobody's really sure how big his collection is, but he's never worn the same one twice over the course of a year... If that means anything.
Personality: A relatively laid-back and lax individual, Daichi's never really worried much about his life as a whole. It wasn't as if everything was served to him on a silver platter, but his family's history and seemingly limitless resources have allowed him to breeze through a lot of things in life without much trouble. Of course, that also meant that he's had to step up and take responsibility for many of the goings-on of the town. In a sense, he's been kind of pushed into taking up his family mantle and lead the clan for the future. He is by no means a leader of any sort and doesn't necessarily have the courage to face danger head-on, but he's resolved to step up to it...
Eventually.
Profession: High School Student
Abilities: Has the ability to create clouds of fog, which can then be subsequently used to generate electricity. This electricity can't be controlled, but it can be amplified or diminished and can be restricted to certain areas within the clouds, if at all. He cannot amplify a charge to a point to where it can effectively mimic an actual lightning strike, though; the worst he can really only give humans are second degree burns and temporary paralysis for about ten seconds. This is done in short bursts within the fog itself, and not by means of continuous shocks to the body. Of course, prolonged exposure will damage and eventually kill, but...
History: Serving as the heir to the Kawamoto clan, Daichi's upbringing has been one of careful balance. While he has been given a fair amount of freedom growing up, Daichi has also been more or less forced to be acquainted with every family- past, present, and future- that lives in the town. It's been drilled into his head that he'll have to be a community leader in the future, but for now he's fine with just doing his job as it stands and relaxing while he still can.
Other: Allowance? What's an allowance? The only money he's allowed to spend is what he earns, which means youmu hunting is essentially his part-time job.

Name: Suniyama Sakie

Age: 16

Gender: Female

Appearance: "H-hello..."

Sakie stands at a slightly taller than average height of 5'8'' and usually wears clothing that has lots of space to carry around her tools of the trade such as jackets or cargo pants with lots of pockets. Her glasses are in fact fake and make her stand out less by dulling her particularly sharp eyesight when in class or in public.

Personality: Sakie is a shy girl with a tendency to be a tad clumsy when not engaged in anything related to self defense, Youmu extermination, life or death battles, or cooking- in which case she shifts to a far more serious side and loses anything remotely related to her usual amounts of klutziness to shift into an efficient and streamlined reactive fighter. The freshman seems to be one of those people who gives off the impression of a rabbit and will often freeze when put on the spot light, having rather severe stage fright when crowds are around classroom size or more. She tends to be on the quieter side due to her mellow and slightly introverted personality, though she can be surprisingly straightforward and natural when used to someone. Sakie also likes regular stereotypical girl things such as cute stuffed animals almost as much as sharp pointy weapons.

Profession: High School Student

Abilities: Besides the regular Ikaishi bodily reinforcement abilities, Sakie's specialty is Hidden Weapons Mastery due to her bloodline's affinity leaning towards that of "Eyes of Insight" and "Rakansen". The former, "Eyes of Insight", is the reinforcement of the eyes above the norm, resulting in ocular vision that could see in a variety of spectrum such as infrared as well as able to see towards the more subtle of spiritual energies such as "trails" and "footprints" rather than the more direct aura searching that regular Ikaishi can do. Besides that, the Suniyama Clan has incredibly good vision, often seeing farther off into the distance than regular people as well as being able to discern minute details a lot of people miss.

The latter, "Rakansen", was developed from the distillment of several Chinese martial arts centered about hidden weapons and taught to those born of the Suniyama Clan. "Rakansen" is not so much an inherent bloodline ability like the "Eyes of Insight", but more a specialized training that builds up the body in a certain way, especially the muscle of the hands and fingers. The end result is the ability to fling hidden weapons such as darts, throwing knives, coins, pebbles, and so on with incredible strength, speed, and accuracy through esoteric methods, often times being able to shoot clean through wood and embed thrown objects into stone and metal or firing off her hidden weapons so fast it could be likened to a brief stream of machine gun fire. Besides straight shots, Sakie can throw things in such a way that they can ricochet, curve seemingly in midair, and return to her hands or charge up her weapon with her energy to the point they explode upon contact with the enemy like a fragmentation grenade. As a result, this particular Ikaishi carries a lot of acupuncture needles, throwing darts, and arcade tokens as well as more dangerous weapons such as shuriken, throwing knives, sleeve arrows, rope dart, miniature chakram, braided nooses, and kunai. Though the majority of her abilities are range based, Sakie can also fight at close combat via knives or bare hands via regular Chinese martial arts.

History: Suniyama Sakie is a person that lives two lives. One one hand, she's a shy high school student who easily blushes when teased and is easily flustered by such things. On the other hand, she belongs to a particularly militant clan of Ikaishi who takes their duties seriously by prowling the streets at night from the shadows, on eternal vigilance against particularly hostile Youmu. It was due to her clan's spartan training that Sakie had a rather painful childhood filled with a multitude of harsh training activities in order to build her up towards using the secret arts of Rakansen, which in turn led to her not knowing how to make much friends due to a lack of interests in most topics that regular people her age have. As such, the conditioning that made her a stellar Ikaishi in turn gave her a less than stellar track record among the teen social circles and gave her a lonely school life. Nowadays though, since she surpassed the foundation building aspect of Hidden Weapons Mastery, Sakie has more time to socialize and thus attempts to use it to learn about popular trends such as fashion and shopping in order to make friends. This has... led to mixed results.

Other: Sakie is a very good cook and has a fine palate. As such, she is uncharacteristically picky towards food instead of laidback like with most other matters. Her specialty is Chinese cuisine and she has a wok nicknamed Shishou.

Name: Kouta Himura

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Appearance: [Lethargy intensifies]
Kouta typically wears very casual clothing outside of school, sweatpants, t-shirts, the staple of a man who has no need to dress well. He stands, or rather, hunches at a height of 5'5". However, when he stands straight, an extra 3 and a half inches or so are added onto his height.
Personality: The greatest description of Kouta comes in the form of one word. Uninterested. He, in and of himself, tends to be very lethargic and slow. His train of thought is very one track and he can often end up behind in conversations due to him focusing in on one thing too heavily. Or simply not paying attention, that also tends to be the case. He also tends to be semi-irritable at times, although it's never to the extent of being overly rude. As mentioned previously, he's quite lethargic in most situations. When not spoken to directly for several minutes or whilst not doing any physical tasks, he'll often drift to sleep silently. He attempts to avoid as many forms of physical labor as possible with varying success.

On the other side of the coin, Kouta can express extreme amounts of energy in very short bursts and continuously during battle. Waking him from his sleep can lead to a display of this energy, typically leading to him overreacting and accidentally attacking somebody. Kouta tends to be a very big eater, spending large amounts of his income on snacks and meals. Food is a very effective bribe, and can get you miles of favor from him.

Kouta is a decently intelligent person, despite his lack of skill in natural conversation. If you can get a straight answer out of him, more often than not it will end up being decently useful. When it comes to fighting, and specifically protecting others, Kouta has no sense of hesitation. He'll throw himself into a battle if he senses that he's needed without saying a word and will perform as efficiently as he possibly can.

Profession: High School Student

Abilities: Kouta's family has an ability known to them simply as "Absolute Reflex." Absolute Reflex has two applications that Kouta can take advantage of (although he's been told there are more). The first thing that this bloodline ability does is quite obvious. It heightens Kouta's reaction speed to it's peak, essentially slowing things down from his perspective to make it easier to dodge. Unfortunately for him, his use of this skill is highly inconsistent and only manifests itself smoothly when he's in serious danger.

The second grace(or vice) that Absolute Reflex lends to Kouta is a sort of "dangersense." As a sixth sense, it acts as an extension of his body that helps him to know when he could possibly be harmed. The issue with this is that it isn't very specific and doesn't give directions or timing. He could get a flair a few seconds before he gets hit in the face with a soccer ball or a few minutes. As a result, he tends to disregard it more often than not. Both of the skills of Absolute Reflex drain Kouta's energy consistently, being one of the main sources for his stagnant nature.

Although this specifically isn't any form of supernatural ability, at the behest of his family because he has no other skills to protect himself, Kouta has learned a decent amount of swordsmanship. He has a blade especially made for him by his father which Kouta tends to carry about hidden in a guitar case.

History: Kouta's ideals about life have been almost entirely shaped by his parents and what they've told him. He has carried the weight of his lineage, as an only child, entirely by himself and with mixed success. At first, his parents decided that they wanted to be overbearing and make sure that he never went anywhere. Unfortunately, that lead to a lot of argument and issues. So his parents then decided that the best idea would be to let him live on his own, at his request, and watch him grow from more of a distance.

Other: Quite a big fan of movies and rap music.
His guitar case also carries a pillow and blanket. Just in-case.
