^{Age: 17
Race: Earth Male
Nationality: British/French}


Edward is a naturally optimistic sort-- a life as pleasant as his will do that to you. He often preaches that things can and do get better in life, even if he understands not everyone is as blessed as him. He always goes out of his way to help others who aren't fortunate, as he believes his massive luck was a gift he is obligated to use to make life better for others. His sizable allowance is often spent on gifts for others, even. He appreciates his status in life, but is very humble about it, understanding he hasn't particularly earned it. He has a bit of an inferiority complex as a result, eager to prove himself but also commonly downplaying any success of his as luck.

In terms of hobbies, Edward is particularly into comic books and manga. Superman, Dragonball, and Naruto especially. That's partially why he's actually an excellent student despite his entirely average intelligence. He's very willing to train and study if it means access to real magical powers that he can use to do good. And to look cool and do cool things, but that's just a nice bonus.

Edward was technically born in France, to two loving parents named Adeline and Damien Lachance. Right after Edward was born, however, Damien was offered a much higher paying position for his office job if he were to move to Britain. The two had been struggling and were worried about their child's well-being and took the offer, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Adeline was a painter, and her paintings finally took off once she began advertising them in Britain. All throughout Edward's life, the blessings of gods seemed to follow him. Winning games of chance was a near guarantee. He could call the flip of a coin 10 times in a row. At the age of 11, he advised his father on which numbers to pick for a lottery ticket, and their family was the only one to get the second tier prize that draw after a quadruple rollover.

Despite how easy Edward's luck would have been to abuse, the Lachance family were good people who had spent their childhoods being taught that money wasn't everything, and they passed that lesson down to their son. They also understood his gift, and took steps to make sure it didn't go to his head. Despite efforts not to stand out, his grades were often great, and allowed him to apply for a unique transfer-- to study abroad in Japan. His parents allowed him to do so, but as he was interviewed, he was stupefied by the process, despite his repeated success. Soon he would find out why. He had stumbled into a school of magic and wonder that hid underneath it an entire new world of elves, beasts and spell casting. Having stumbled here, Edward is convinced all of his luck was fate guiding him here so he could make a positive impact on this world-- and the magical one right next door.

[PLAYER CHARACTER SHEET]

Appearance:


Name: Ultana Whelen
Age: 17
Race: Earth - Human
Nationality: Igneus Caute

Personality: Rude, Violent, Impulsive, Stubborn and Hot-headed are just some of the terms most people might describe her. Some would even go as far as to call her a rabid dog with the way she loses her cool and is quick to resort to violence. She’s a girl that lives and does things her way, regardless of whether it’s right or wrong.

Backstory:
Born to a family of miners, Ultana always was found in the caverns, regardless if she was allowed to or not, security watching the entrances be damned. Ultana practically lived in the caves, to the point she knew them as well as any adult would. Ever since her childhood, she was a reckless tomboy that was always quick to resort to violence in any dispute. More often than not, this would often get her into trouble with kids her age and adults alike.

Like most who were born into a mining family, she was raised and trained in the Arts Of Smoldering Earth, a Spell Knight style that was born and perfected through a series of hostile conflicts that followed the demise of the great magician. While trained in it, not many are able to master or advance far with it due to the difficulty of the skills and forms, with many being quick to abandon it.

Because of this, it was merely seen as basic training with many preferring to simply resort to old fashioned brawling. Granted, growing up, Ultana was definitely one of the many who thought it was pointless. After frequent struggles trying to learn it, she easily grew frustrated with it and began seeing it as a waste of time like most kids who give up when things don’t go their way. It wouldn’t be until a few years later, when she was around 13-14 until she began taking it seriously again.

The event that inspired it all, began like any other. Each group of miners was each designated plots or areas in the mine to dig, with space given between them as to not interfere with the others. The group she was usually in was with her father, grandfather and a few of their drinking buddies. The Mining business was generally hit or miss in regards to finds, but lately her grandfather was growing increasingly dissatisfied with the areas they were able to mine.
It was generally first come, first serve but lately they’d find certain areas of the mine sealed off with armed guards, all with the same emblem on their shoulders, and always found themselves chased and pushed away from areas while other shady people took over their dig sites. It’s something that started weeks prior when her father and grandfather started finding strange artifacts in their sites.

Not getting any leads as to what exactly they were, but eventually people started getting it in their heads that the items might’ve belonged to the great magician who once called this area his home. Just the slightest touch of suspicion was enough for a certain scholar to send his goons to the mine and block everything off. Having enough, her grandfather and father snuck into the mine was security was at its weakest, to go back to the site. Naturally, a certain girl was supposed to be in her bed, saw them and followed into the mine.

While they weren’t too pleased when they found her out, they eventually allowed her to tag along. After sneaking past some of the armed men, they managed to successfully infiltrate the dig site. After a few hours of digging, her grandfather finally found something. It was a bulky and really tattered old book. When he opened the book, the text was all over the place and wasn’t able to understand a single word or letter in it but was excited about it all the same.

However, not long after returning to the surface with it and began investigating it, the group tracked them down in an isolated location. Surrounding them, demanding they hand over the book, claiming it belonged to them. When her grandfather, without hesitation, refused, the armed men decided to take it by force. Gravely underestimating him, the group charged at him all at once before a good deal of them fell to a massive tremor caused by her grandfather.

Watching him taking them out in such a devastating fashion made her totally forget the situation they were in and looked on with excitement. Here her grandfather was, using a spell knight style she wrote off as a joke and totally impossible to master, with ease taking out a bunch of trained and armed guards. It was incredible, that was until they eventually overwhelmed him with their numbers and eventually wore him down.

Ultana quickly went from happy and excited to as if her soul was ripped out from her body. They didn’t just stop at taking the book from him, taking advantage of his weak state, they wasted no time in killing him. Whatever that book was, it was something those shady bastards, and whoever employed them, were willing to kill for it. Naturally, the men didn’t fail to notice her presence.

As they moved towards her, her father, who was helping her grandfather fight the men off, got in front of them and tried to buy some time for her to run. While she did end up running away, she was eventually caught. However, fate would have it, a knight from another land intervened and the rest was history. Given her state at the time, losing her father and grandfather, she couldn’t recall his name or what he looked like but would stick in her mind was the fact he was sent from the capital on an unrelated matter.
She did vaguely remember the emblem on the shady bastards uniforms. It was a depiction of some sort of winged beast, an emblem she never saw personally but familiar all the same. After spending the time afterwords to take Smoldering Earth seriously, she decided to take her attention to Silvergate Academy. She figured there'd be a better chance at finding out who those people were if she went to Silvergate as opposed to the knight academy, where all sorts of people could be found there.

NAME
Jhackson Michael Mason

AGE
19

RACE
Half Human (Half Kapre)

NATIONALITY
Filipino

PERSONALITY
Rough and choleric, Jhackson is the stereotypical 'youth with a chip on his shoulder' - and as you would expect from the type, is a much kinder person than his attitude implies. Dislikes being idle, since being idle often leads to introspection, which he is not a huge fan of. Not at all an honest person, he will often lie or swindle if it means bettering his position, even a little, though within limits. Persevering and stubborn, he is not prone to giving up in times of difficulty, and telling him not to do something will more often than not result in him doing the opposite.

BACKSTORY
Jhackson was born from the union of a Kapre and a human, his father Don and his mother Julia. His mother never knew about his fathers' true identity. While his father was (and still very much) smitten with his mother, the far too early pregnancy and the hardships that followed soured both her opinion towards him, and the then unborn Jhackson.

A distance grew between them as he got older, childish attempts at getting her attention became a deep seated resentment that found violence and vice as its outlet. This resentment only grew once his mother married his stepfather, who was ill-prepared to deal with an angry preteen Jhackson. So for the most part, he remained distant from his family.

It was around this time that his biological father met with him for the first time, and where he discovered his true lineage. To say he didn't care would be an understatement. His anger was such that when his father extended an invitation to this 'Silver Gate Academy' to help him learn to adapt to a world he never knew existed, he turned him down out of sheer spite.

As time passed, he completely cut himself off from them. Until the birth of his siblings.

When his mother announced that she was pregnant with twins, he hated them at that moment. It felt like all the affection that he was deprived of had been saved for them instead. He bore a grudge towards them before they were even born.

And all that anger, all that resentment that was bottled up... simply evaporated.

He loved them on the spot. The two small, weak, soft things cradled in his mothers' arms. He was but thirteen years old at the time, and back then he did not know what it was he was felt for them, but it was love. Over the next year, he did his best to be a big brother to them, a motivation which keeps him going to this day.

Personality:


Backstory:

Name: Koyuki
Age: Appears about 16 (but at least a 100 years old)
Race: Kitsune, Yokai
Nationality: Japanese
Personality:
Koyuki could be easily described as a curious troublemaker with devilish charms. Seeing the same sceneries for decades of her life caused the fox spirit to crave knowledge of things and how they work, without as much fear of consequences for her actions. She is technically an undead being after all. During her years of stay at the Inari Shrine, people with all sorts of character come and go, exposing Kouyki to plentiful of human interactions. This was how she learned to sweet talk and allure one (regardless of male or female) into taking her favorable side. Despite the childish manner, the kitsune means no ill will towards other beings and simply wishes to know more.

Backstory:
The vixen which will be later known as Koyuki was an ordinary, wild fox like any other living in the deep mountains of Kyoto, around the Fushimi Inari Shrine area. Not until the day of the unfortunate incident. The skies casted a heavy down pour, accompanied by the sounds of rumbling thunder that evening. Street lights were not commonly utilized at that era, which barely gave the sight of the road to any passer bys. Several factors all played a part in the accident.

The carriage driver rushed through the mountain road, merely wondering what the big bump on the road was, simply dismissing it as a rock. The booming thunder clap rumbled at the exact moment the poor animal let out a shriek of utter pain, unheard by the human. Left at the road side with a growing pool of blood, the fox could barely manage to wince from its limbs being crushed under the weight. Feeling the cold overcome its flesh, the black orbs slowly shut themselves closed.

"You poor thing. Let me help you." A gentle voice spoke to the dying fox. A bright, glowing light enveloped the fatally injured animal, giving off a powerful healing aura. Once it faded, the eyes of the fox shot open in shock. The body that was crippled a moment ago seemed to fully repair itself. Looking up at the source of the voice, the vixen only caught a glimpse of a human-like lady with tails likened to its kind, before she was swallowed by the darkness.

That was a rather peculiar incident, it was almost as if it never really happened. But the fox would carve it deeply into its memories. The other peculiar thing that remained was, it seemed to have stopped its aging process. Decades have passed but the vixen appears the same and have outlived the life expectancy of an average fox. Just as it turns exactly about the hundredth year of its life, it... felt different. Upon inspecting itself on the reflection in the pond, there was an image of a female human.

"..... Is that me?" Blue orbs widened at the human words coming out of her mouth. This was but the start of a new chapter for the vixen's life.

Years have passed since Koyuki (the name given to the fox by a shrine priestess) was first taken in by the Fushimi Inari Shrine priests as one of the messengers of the god Inari. But that was just a title for formalities' sake. She was fortunately adopted into the shrine by the generous and pious priests who caught the sight of the kitsune wandering in the forest close to the shrine. As a fox, she frequented the area close to the shrine in hopes of being given offerings to the foxes, basically a free meal in her eyes.

The more the fox spirit learned about the world outside the shrine and the mountains, the more she was eager to explore out which frequently lead her to trouble. Finding it unsuitable to send her to a regular human school, the priests decided to inquire for Koyuki's entry into the prestigious, magical institution, Silver Gate Academy.

Name: Icarus Ochre
Age: 16
Race: Demon, Phoenix
Nationality: Solitum Desert, Arcanis

Personality:
Definitionally, Icarus is a coward, a fool, and an idiot.

It might seem contradictory for an eternal firebird to be defined by cowardice, but then again Icarus isn't exactly your average phoenix. It's not like any sort of well thought-out cowardice, but he is just easily panicked. He's anxious about a lot of things all of the time, has a nasty habit of inventing new things to be anxious about, and this high-strung mentality leaves him prone to freaking out in response to unexpected stimulus. Or just that little extra push over the edge.

On the topic of freaking out, it's not just heart-pounding terror that Icarus wears on his sleeves. Really, it's all of his emotions. He tries quite desperately to emulate the cool, serene attitudes of his forebears, but lacking their experience all he has is a thin shell of serenity that cracks under the slightest pressure, almost exactly unlike a well-balanced egg. Anger, love, embarrassment, it all comes surging to the surface the moment any of his keys get pressed. And Icarus is basically a pipe organ in that regard.

Compounding all of his immaturity, or perhaps causing it, is another one of Icarus's contradictions: while patient, and more than willing to wait for results, he is consistently shortsighted. He doesn't really imagine the consequences of his actions beyond how they will affect him immediately, which is likely to give him some trouble making and keeping friends.

When his many flaws and foibles don't get in the way, Icarus could be charitably described as driven, determined, and ultimately he is willing to get down and dirty to get what he wants. And to be fair, it is his desire to soar above the clouds and do something outside the norm that brought him to Silver Gate to begin with.

Backstory:
Some people define themselves by their hardships, the adversities they have faced, and Icarus is not one of those.
Some by their accomplishments, having already carved their name into the world at a young age, or taken pride in some minor act that to them was magnificent, yet that is also not he.
Some are just born with a silver spoon in their mouths, blessed by circumstance, and that might well describe Icarus.
To be fair that might well describe most phoenixes, being born full of fiery passion; a species both powerful and impossibly long-lived. Most creatures are lying when they say they have all the time in the world for good fortune to pass their way, but phoenixes really do, and they're more than happy to remind you of it.
It was this sort of blessed life that Icarus was born into. Sure, as a demon there is always the threat of stepping on the toes of the Arrows, who were always looking for any slip ups, but his family was full of the good sorts. Well, good sorts for demons. So they didn't have to worry too much about drawing the ire of their patient wardens. Nonetheless, Icarus lived in a world of relative comfort, perhaps not quite nobility, but certainly knowing that he was a Have in a world of Have-Nots. A phoenix surrounded by imps. Childhood, sweet and innocent, marked quite distinctly with something foul.
So it was probably a bit of a surprise to everyone, Icarus included, when his traitorous beak decided the dinner table was the perfect place to say he wanted to go to a human school. He had only just been considering it—the idea had intrigued him in ways he could barely even put to words—it wasn't even really part of the conversation at hand, but it was out in the open in that moment. And quite suddenly he found himself the center of everyone's attention.

Oh, they did try to dissuade him, which only seemed to deepen his interest. When an old phoenix tells a little fletchling that they know exactly what it's like to feel young, rebellious, and heartbreakingly reckless, there's no way to really say they haven't. They've gone through that part of life time and time again after all. Oh he'd never fit in amongst such fragile, very mortal creatures. They'd never understand, the gulf was just too big. At least imps understood what it meant to be a demon.
"But what if I could understand what it means to be human?"
Which is exactly the sort of thing that gets met with chortles and guffaws coming from a 14-year-old speaking to a room full of adults who had been teenagers quite a few times themselves.

Incensed, inflamed, and with his pride just a wee bit pricked by those around him, Icarus returned to roost that night prepared to show up everyone. The humans were so short-lived, so very inventive, they fought for every inch of life they could get. And that buzzed around in his head.
Perhaps what drove him most was that laughter though. That also buzzed around in there, playing on loop.

Encouragement, he couldn't have that. Help wouldn't just come his way. But to get what he wanted he did have something to help him. He had a lot of pride, and it burned to be shut down like that. He had to at least take the chance. Phoenixes could take chances when no one else could after all.
With abandon, Icarus pursued the idea, he got his hands on books, and he read. He prepared, painstakingly. If he was going to convince anyone, even just his parents, to let him go, he couldn't just go anywhere. He needed to perfect his studies, because if he wanted to go, to soothe that ache in his pride, he had to not just show determination to get somewhere, it had to be a place with prestige. Someplace special. And between Alladore and Silver Gate, he chose the latter.
"Chose" is perhaps a strong word for drawing a name out of a hat, but at the last minute he just hadn't been able to make that choice, and left it to chance. And that was a choice all its own.

Passing the exam was pretty easy compared to facing Mother, Father, and the Arrows, but Mother and Father knew very well that their little fletchling had worked hard in the time between first saying those words and the day he really asked to leave. And the Arrows, while every demon's childhood boogeyman, maybe they weren't as scary and cruel as the bedtime stories made them out to be.
He made it, away from home and towards the beacon of magic on earth.

-Equipment-
Weapon
A beautifully crafted break action revolver with a polished mahogany grip. Runes are inscribed along the side of the feysteel slide, enchanting it with improved durability and sound dampening. When it breaks open, there’s the distinct ring of a sounding crystal.

Gear
A thick, but breathable coat embellished with the red-and-brown patterns of the Arillo family. While it offers some protection against bludgeoning blows, its main function is the many pockets that Otis had sewn into it afterwards, offering plenty of different places to put his various magecrafts. He also possesses a shawl made of owl feathers, gifted to him by his mother when he left for Silver Gate Academy. It doesn’t have any particularly important functions, but it’s comfy to sleep in and reminds him of where he came from.

Ethereal Golden Bell - A golden bell like one would find on the collar of a small fox. The bell appears as if it might disappear, yet it persists in this world. There is a calming and healing property to it, as just exposure to small cuts and bruises they appear to regenerate.

Other
A tin box, large enough to fill one of his main pockets. Contains the tools he needs for rudimentary runic and magecraft work, a smattering of catalysts, as well as a half dozen hard candies, for when he needs that extra kick of energy.

Independent
Eye for Detail - Otis has an eye for the tiniest details and is relentless in his pursuit of knowledge. He may notice subtle weakpoints from a bird's eye distance away, and has a permanent discount to any Magecraft and Ritual major skill by 1/2/3 points depending on their difficulty.

Strigidae Lineage - Being one of the Strigidae race of beastkin, Otis possesses a light body, night vision, and the ability to turn his head further than normal, to almost directly behind him, which is a sure way to shock some people. The lighter body and bone structure lets him move quickly and have lower weight, but also means he's a bit less sturdier than others.

Strigidae Marksmanship - Those of the Strigidae are famed hunters among Aquilis and the tribes that serve them, rivaled only perhaps by the Hawks. Strigidae Marksmanship allows Otis to identify key points and shoot them in quick succession. On a human for example it would be their legs, arms, and joints, as well as vitals. Things basic hunters would understand. This allows Otis to debilitate targets or efficiently dismantle a monster with just a few shots. Unlike shooting these points rudimentarily which only lets them hit one at a time, this Independent allows Otis to choose 3 points and strike them.

Friend of the Alliance - Motsumine is aware of your achievements in Kyoto, and so within reason, the resources of the Alliance are also available to you. He will also be sending a present in gratitude in the very near future. He has also expressed to keep an eye on Seirin, furthermore Fuuko appears to be a bit less distant towards you.

Full Name - Erik von Motle
Age - 17
Gender - Male
Race - Human?
Nationality - German
"Sometimes it's more impressive to be related to one powerful dragon than it is to trace your roots to dragons, faeries, dryads, satyrs, werewolves, sirens, and whatever else have you.
After all the other guy can point to which of his ancestors is important."
While the age of nobility has long passed in Europe, some people never really gave up on the idea, and Erik's family has held on to its mystical roots desperately in a world where magic seems unreal. The house of Motle has only infamy among the other mage families in Europe, widely known as the mutts of the magical community, and not exactly incorrectly, the bloodline drawing its sorcerous roots from just about every variety of mystical creature that has ever passed through the continent. And many that have not.
Honestly you would have better luck with listing the things that are not in the Motle family.
So as it is, Erik's blood and magic are a veritable cocktail of everything magical that can be found on Earth, carefully blended together to avoid anything in particular overpowering the rest. Alongside that careful art, the Motle passed down an art of blood, to use it as fuel for their spells when natural arts failed.

Erik was born to this ebbing and flowing blood and all the expectations that came with it. Keep the family line going, clean up, be presentable, master magic. Listen to your mother, obey your father, as if either one could be bothered to talk to him. Write in your grimoire. Note down everything. Find a nice girl, get married, pour your blood, sweat, and tears into your studies. Watch your family fall apart around you. Pick yourself up after you fall down the stairs.
Bleed for your heritage.
Predictably, Erik found it, lacking. Restrictive. Mother knows best, do as thou should. You have talent, don't waste it. Get moving, child. You don't need "freedom", just work harder. This is what it means to be noble. Respect it. Live it.

But what, perhaps, if there was another option he could take. There are mage schools out there now, big, famous, connected to the other world. Places that were reputable. Places that with the right words, he could convince his parents the value of including in life. And desperation bore fruit in words. And so it was, off to Silver Gate he would go.
Just leave home. It's not home anymore. Was it ever really home? That didn't matter. He could go to a school, a school far away.
Have your "freedom" then. Mother and Father will be waiting when you tire of it. Right back at home.
Anywhere but home. He would like to be anywhere but home.
Hot-blooded, fabulous, and utterly out of his depth, Erik has approximately 2 modes: showoff, and blasting. He does not trust anyone but himself to do anything right, which is understandable given the circumstances, and he feels no need to explain this simple fact of the world to anyone. He has talent and noble blood, and most the rest of his contemporaries do not. The handful that do have any nobility in them don't deserve it anyway. Really they should just stop getting in the way.
Is it really that hard to understand the concept?

Left to his own devices, Erik keeps up his extremes by rapidly flipping between devoted absenteeism and sudden deep-diving study sessions to make up for his earlier inattentiveness. It sort of works out, usually. It's always worked just fine before. This isn't home, it's okay to take a break every now and then.

• Motle Family Grimoire - A vellum-paged, leather-bound spellbook/journal received from his family, Erik's personal grimoire is intended to be used to record his favored and invented spells, recipes, and techniques, as well as a journal of his activities during life. The book has a variety of enchantments on it, but aside from being protected from most sorts of environmental damage, the most notable enchantment is that the only ink that will actually work on the inside pages is blood, which dries almost-immediately to a dusky maroon once applied. The book's spellwork is unfinished, as there are a number of enchantments not yet applied to it that are expected of a fledgling magician of the Motle family.

• Medical kit - A fancy kit with both magical and mundane remedies for injuries sustained on the field. Could be used for anyone but notably contains some objects specifically geared for Erik.
• Backup medical kit - Because someone is going to lose their medical kit at some point, you need a second, almost as good medical kit in a different pouch of your backpack.
• Emergency bleed kit - Contains only two things: a perfectly mundane roll of gauze, and one syringe of antihemophilic factor. Guaranteed to maybe stop you bleeding out if you've managed to lose all your other fancy medical supplies.

• Hemophilia (mild) - Bleeding is easy, just one, two, three. Stopping is hard.
• Blood Mage - Erik routinely uses his own blood as a component in spellcasting; he keeps a ready supply of 1 dram (⅛ fluid ounce) vials on his person. With the right practice, this might become more than simply a basic component of keeping him as a functioning mage at all.

• Spirit Boost - As an Earth Human, Erik has a wellspring of inner power waiting to be tapped into. 40% boost to Spirit when over 50. Currently: Inactive.
• Arcane Bloodline - The unique blood of the Motle family being able to carry so much magical energy gives Erik a veritable supply of mana to access. He has a 25% bonus to WIL, his blood can be used to restore other people's mana stores, but should he bleed, he will slowly lose that WIL bonus in 2 posts.
• Show-off - Erik has an extreme sense of confidence with a strong urge to show off. If he is fighting with at least one other person, his magical potency is improved by 15%. It is improved to 20% if there's also a crowd on the enemy side.

Name: Fuuma Kaito
Age: 17
Race: Earth Human
Nationality: Japanese

Personality: A boisterous youth with a loud mouth, Kaito is rather bold for a shinobi. Unafraid to announce his very presence against his foes and face them head-on, Kaito's headstrong nature has put him in more harm than good. Of course, this is due to his belief in justice and honor, beliefs that conflict with his status as a Fuuma ninja. Rather than a trained killer, Kaito sees himself and his clan as dark avengers of the night, seeking to bring criminals and miscreants to justice.

One should not misplace his recklessness for mere foolishness, however, as Kaito has firmly compensated for his bombastic fighting style with his own unique, if unrefined, form of ninjutsu tools. Born from his love of tokusatsu, Kaito conducts himself like a hero of justice, from his mannerisms to his combat style, referring to himself as the "Ironclad Demon of Justice" and even designing his own costume. Kaito also possesses a level of pride for his clan, seeing its most famous member, Fuuma Kotarou, as his prime inspiration to follow. While he disagrees with some of their more ruthless practices, he still holds his clan at heart, referring to himself as a Fuuma shinobi even after his self-imposed exile.

Backstory: Ever since he was born, Kaito had to prove himself as both his parents were excellent shinobi of the clan. Of course, it helped that he possessed a natural talent in the Fuuma clan ninjutsu, believes to be a prodigy among his peers. At one point when they were training in weightlessness, his peers had referred to him as "Fuuma Kotarou reincarnated" due to his control over his own weight. These praises fostered a wealth of unhealthy habits for Kaito, such as his reckless nature and the idolization and emulation of the Fuuma clan's greatest shinobi. Such habits would continue to develop over time, up to the point of Kaito's first real mission.

The mission in question was higher profile than what one would usually trust a trainee shinobi perform, but Kaito's superiors had plenty of confidence in the young ninja to complete the task. What was simply a raid into a known yakuza den turned out to be a hostage situation, as Kaito had charged in without knowing that innocents could have also been in the establishment at the time. While Kaito was tasked with slaying a yakuza officer hidden within the den, he prioritized saving the hostages instead. If it weren't for the intervention of one of Kaito's mentors tasked with supervising his progress, Kaito's target would have escaped.

Admonished for his failures, Kaito was severely punished for his actions, believing his priority to save the lives of others as signs of weakness. This shook Kaito's own beliefs, as he had initially thought that the goal of a shinobi is to defend the lives of the common man over all else. Because of this disagreement, Kaito had entered exile to seek a new purpose, one that would allow him to mete out his own form of justice without being told what he was doing was wrong.

It was then that he found himself at the Silver Gate Academy, eager to pave a new path for himself as a true hero of justice.

[Combat]
-Equipment-
Weapons: Kaito wields a heavily stylized ninjato meant to go with his outfit. While it looks cool and can light up, it provides no clear advantage in combat when compared to a similar weapon. Kaito also carries shuriken with a similar design philosophy, with each painstakingly made to look uniform with one another.
Gear: Kaito wears a customized set of Fuuma clan armor, reinforced composite armor stylized to look like his heroic persona. It is complete with modifications such as various compartments to hold shuriken and other smaller ninja tools in, a built-in kite that pops out from the back, reinforced arms and legs for improved unarmed combat, and a star-shaped chest piece made with reflective glass and filled with bright LEDs meant to both disorient foes and look marvelous.
Other: Kaito possesses a cosplaying kit meant for both quick disguises and to maintain his suit.

Independent:

• Spirit Boost - As an Earth Human, Kaito has a wellspring of inner power waiting to be tapped into. 40% boost to Spirit when over 50.
• Ally of Justice - Upon announcing his presence, he will demand the attention of every enemy in the area, and have a heightened level of aggression towards him. He is also more likely to power through attacks by enemies who possess thuggish or miscreant attributes, able to overpower them in a direct trade.
• Shadow of Kotaro - Despite his youthful vigor and self-proclaimed title, he is still but a shadow. As one talented in the arts Fuuma Kotaro was known for, the cost of any ninjutsu related to weightlessness is reduced by one rank in both SPT and WIL. It cannot go lower than F rank.

• Signature Move - Justice Arrival [1/5] (2 pts)

Spells: lol

Techniques:

• Justice Arrival - A flashy and exaggerated flying kick, Kaito leaps to his opponent, utilizing the Sixth Jutsu of the Fuuma-ryu to allow him to soar greater distances before abruptly ending the Jutsu mid-air, placing his entire weight directed towards his kicking foot. Utilizing one's own cumbersome weight to their advantage, it is particularly effective when wearing heavy armor. However, it is difficult to change the direction of one's attack once their weight is directed towards a target. As such, it is primarily utilized as an opening attack, when one has the element of surprise.
• Justice Blast - Kaito leaps to the ground landing on his outstretched palms as support, usually behind his opponent, before thrusting his legs in an upward motion towards the opponent. When properly performed, the opponent should be knocked up into the air as if they were a rocket. Due to how the technique is performed, it is normally utilized as a recovery after being knocked down.
• Justice Driver - A technique that attests to the Fuuma clan's superiority over the skies, Kaito leaps into the air, lessening his weight and spinning rapidly with his legs together to create a drill-like motion. Once proper momentum is built up, Kaito restores his weight suddenly before directing himself downward towards his opponent as if to screw them into the ground. Most effective against airborne opponents.
