Name: Lee Hikoshiro
Age: Fifteen
Bio: Long ago, the Hikoshiro household was renowned throughout the land for their exceptional skill in sword crafting. Their abilities were second to none and the blades they produced were of top quality. The reputation they garnered not only stirred up curiosity among the public, but also envy and ill-will from their rivals. What couldn't be solved with bribery and petty threats, was swiftly dealt with by bloodshed. As quickly as they appeared, the once proud Hikoshiro clan was no more. Or at least, that's what most had thought. Those who had survived chose to live in seclusion, hoping that a prodigy would appear to restore their clan's former glory.
Years had passed and as they wished, they were blessed with a genius. Lee was without a doubt gifted; a diamond in the rough whose potential was still miles from being reached. However, what most had considered a talent was eventually treated as a curse by Lee. The repercussions that came with the use of his ability and the burden he had to shoulder were all too much for him to handle. His passion for smithing was something he previously embraced, but with time, eventually grew to despise it. Lee soon began to neglect the whims of his family and finally, realized that he should have been living the way he wanted. News of the Seishun Academy of Swords came rather late to their household, but they knew that this was their chance to rekindle whatever spark that was left in Lee. The only issue about this idea was their son's willingness to actually listen to them. Surprisingly, he had not qualms in accepting his their request. For him, it was merely a decision between living the remainder of his life within the confines of the mountains or finally being able to leave his god forsaken home. Clearly, it was obvious what the better choice was.
Specialty:- Soul Forge - Lee has the capability to enter a trance-like state where his mind and body become completely attuned to his gift of sword crafting, allowing him to produce blades possessing strange and abnormal properties. When used, Lee's hair and the entirety of his eyes become pure white. While crafting, white magical energy seeps out from all over his body, in a manner similar to steam. The pre-requisites of using this ability include prior knowledge to what he intends to create, the concepts behind it - whether concrete or abstract - and the materials needed to create it. Lee's attention is solely directed towards crafting alone. He is non-receptive to any form of stimuli and only regains his senses upon finishing whatever he had started; things such as fatigue and hunger usually take their toll on his body afterwards.
- Herbalism - Most often than not, Lee tends to suffer from multiple injuries and conditions after he uses his ability. The need to rely on others to tend to his wounds was becoming irksome, so he was forced to learn to do it by himself.
- Gluttony - Most may not consider this a special skill, but Lee certainly does. He can consume massive amounts of food in seconds; he usually eats anything. Where he puts it? No one really knows.
