Name(if any): Kuharu Zakura
Nickname(s): The Eternal Spring Blossoms
Preferred Gender: … Male?
Sexuality: Bisexual
Appearance:
Always wears this, even in the winter. Doesn't seem to mind, though.

Shikigami?:
Onmyouji:
Tier: 2
Alignment: Yin Wood
Sigil:


Powers:
Wild Growth - Kuharu can make plants grow rapidly, even in places where they would not normally be able to. While they are growing, he can shape them freely, and they become impressively sturdy once they reach full size. However, while the growth is extraordinarily fast relative to the plant's natural growth, it still takes several seconds to reach a useful size, making it better used for fortifications.

Photosynthesis - Kuharu restores his energy whenever he is in light. This energy can be used to fuel his powers and recover from damage by regrowing. If the light is too dim, he cannot photosynthesise.

Minor Miracle - Kuharu can use the energy he gets from photosynthesis or faith to produce minor miracles such as curing ailments or improving someone's luck slightly.

History:
Inhabiting a lone cherry tree in an isolated corner of the local park, Kuharu made his tree bloom every spring for the confessions underneath his branches. However, for a young man who was moving away before then, Kuharu decided to blossom quite early, at the beginning of winter. Empowered by the thanks that the youth--and a few others--gave to him, Kuharu could stay in bloom through the spring and summer.

Because of this unusual occurrence, many different types of people began coming--mostly just the curious and the usual romantic hopefuls, but there were a few superstitious people that seemed to hold some kind of faith towards him. As the believers grew, Kuharu eventually gained his current powers.

He happily greeted the members from the Obake Shrine, who were investigating him; they deemed him harmless.

Personality:
Kuharu’s tension levels swing wildly from fluffy and carefree to manic levels of excitement. He is wholly altruistic and refuses to do anything that will hurt others, but has a certain naivety when it comes to trusting people. Although he seems to enjoy close contact with others, he also seems to try and keep a certain distance from them.

Seems to have masochistic tendencies.

Other:
- Likes it when people carve their love(initials) into his body.
- People ask him for help with relationships, but he doesn't know anything about love, so he just gives them a little luck and hopes for the best.
- Trees are hermaphroditic

Name: Samuru Amakusa
Nickname(s): The Exchange Student
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Bisexual
Appearance: Picture already shown.
Previous Onmyouji?: Yes and no; he's a Catholic Exorcist.
Shikigami: The Angel Ramiel, responsible for Divine Visions and Hope.
Sigil and Location: Two silvery-white marks on the back shaped like wings.

Alignment and Fighting Style:

Earth - Yang

Samuru, by holding out his cross, can create a barrier of any single element, whether it be Earth or Fire or even Wood. This barrier can reflect and deflect damage, and can be re-sized and re-shaped to protect a specific area or cover more ground (up to a small house) or stretch itself into a dome or sphere (also up to a small house). He can also use his barrier as a form of offense by 'pushing' it to attack a foe, whether human or Yokai; his favorite tactic is projecting the barrier as a sphere and rolling over the potential foe with it like a hamster in a ball.

Catalyst: A small cross, tiny enough to fit in the palm, that is made of Jade.

Team: Keito's, hopefully.

History: Samuru Amakusa was born in Nagasaki, to a family of Japanese Christians who were part of the Society of St. Jude, a group of Exoricists who were dedicated to keeping the peace between the Supernatural and the Mortal worlds. A secret branch of the Catholic Church formed from misfits, outcasts, and even heretics whose prowess in fighting Supernatural foes was too valuable to waste, the Society of St. Jude deviated from the official party line of the Cathollic Church by emphasizing a single Bible Verse: All things are lawful to me, but not all things are beneficial. To the Society, this meant that if something was both beneficial and contradicted the Church's official doctrine, then it was to be allowed.

Thus, Samuru was raised in an environment where casual association with 'Witches', 'Sorceresses', and Supernatural Creatures was permitted and encouraged even as he learned theology and the doctrines of the faith. And so he was happy, as he had both a faith that provided meaning and identity in an unfair and changing world, but was free from demands to hurt others and hurt himself at the same time. And it suited him well, for he was not only expected to work with other practitioners of Magic, but also live with them; he was going to be sent to the Obake Shrine when he turned 18, so that he can learn from, and teach, other people.

Personality: Samuru is a kind and happy person who likes helping people and loves new positive experiences. He likes reading, writing, and researching various subjects and wants to acquire an encyclopedic memory so that he can provide information to others who need it. Quick to fight and quick to make peace, Samuru's prime emotion in battle is compassion even for the opponent, as this is a world where most motivations are understandable or even forgivable.

Other: Pardon my spirits.

Name(if any): Ramiel
Nickname(s): Angel of Hope, Angel of True Visions, The Revealer.
Preferred Gender: Male
Sexuality: Asexual, Panromantic
Appearance:



Shikigami?: Yes.
Onmyouji: Samuru Amakusa
Tier: 2; Ramiel was originally more powerful, but has a power limiter to 'sync' himself with Samuru's strength.
Alignment: Yin Fire, believe it or not.
Powers:

Analyze - Find out an enemy's Elemental Weakness.
Precognition - Can see a brief vision of the future once per Story Arc.
Illusion - Can take on the form of an ordinary high school student (See Alternate Form).
Weapons Master - Instantly master any mortal weapon he holds; this does not apply to supernatural artifacts.

History: Ramiel was once one of the most powerful Angels of Heaven, but chose to bind himself to Samuru in order to follow a mysterious order from The Divine. Or at least, that's what he says. In truth, Ramiel has realized that the world he is part of is a light-hearted and non-crapsack one, so he is free to neglect his duties a little and pal around with mortals. That and enjoy mortal luxuries like video games and mortal fiction.

Personality: Ramiel is carefree, kind, and a bit of an 'ethical hedonist'; he wants to enjoy life without hurting people. He loves exploring the city at night, eating mortal delicacies, and again, video games and fiction. The Angel also gently ribs people about the fact that he cannot grow fat or old or ugly, which can get on people's nerves if done too frequently. Note however that in cases where Samuru and his friends are in genuine danger, this attitude is quickly shaken off, and Ramiel helps with maximum dedication. He also tends to act like he is older and wiser than the other Shikigami; it remains to be seen if that is the case.

Other: Ramiel, like all Shikigami, can grow as Samuru gets more powerful. But unlike other Shikigami, Ramiel is recovering powers he once had, not gaining new strength.

Pardon my spirits.
