[u][b]Ichiko[/b][/u]

Age: 21
Class: Onmyoji (Sorceress)
Powers: Ichiko is an Onmyoji. What the western world would call a witch or sorceress. The practice of Onmyōdō is an ancient one, originated in China and concerns itself with Yin, Yang, and the Five Elements. (Earth, Water, Fire, Wind and Void)
--Elemental bolts
--Protective Barriers made from the elements
--the ability to bless weapons to strike ghosts, reveal ghosts, and seal spirits (Remove this ability if someone plays a Shrine Maiden(Miko).)
--Divination

Weakness: Wears no armour. Skilled but not an expert in her hidden sword. If her snake familiar is killed she loses her ability to see and speak to spirits until she finds a new familiar.

Background: Ichiko began life as a normal girl to a struggling Samurai family whose lands were going fallow. Sold to a pleasure house as an Oiran, Ichiko eventually ran away but not until after she had been instructed in some of the basic arts. Luckily, while she was speaking with a kami, she caught the attention of a passing Onmyoji travelling between Samurai lands at behest of the reigning Daimyo. He was surprised to find a young child speaking with the spirit of a river and getting directions.

From then on raised as an Onmyoji, Ichiko grew more adept at speaking with the Kami and was taught about many of the supernatural creatures that walked the Land of Eternal Sun. She learned of Kitsune, Kirin, Oni, and more. Once trained, she departed, becoming a wandering Onmyoji, protecting the people of the land from the supernatural.

Fun Fact: Has a snake familiar.
