Hoping to be accepted, Daigen's character sheet.
CHARACTER SHEET:
NAME: Sanada Katsuhide, dharma name: Daigen; he goes around using his dharma name in most situations
AGE: 24
GENDER: male
PERSONALITY/TRAITS: Daigen is a stern and introvert man. Slightly aloof, he doesn't get along with many people, bearing a specific dislike to loud and unruly characters. Although he has been an initiated monk, he holds no religious zeal and doesn't preach at all. His sole religious acts are a simple set of prayers and mantras said when he comes across a shrine. Furthermore, he greatly enjoys the presence of women, contradicting his pious education. This doesn't mean however that he's some kind of playboy, his introversion stands in the way.
Still, some values of his monastic teachers have rubbed off on him. He offers his aid to any and all that might need it, asking only a bowl of rice or a place to spend the night in return, and stays away from alcohol or excessive eating. He never charges to attack somebody and displays a great tolerance towards insults. Furthermore, he has learned some basic medical skills with a decent knowledge of medicinal herbs. He also has studied martial arts, an integral part of his education as exercise cleanses and strengthens the body. He is proficient in hand-to-hand combat, swordsmanship and wielding the naginata.
Being a wanderer, he holds no loyalty to anyone and has no sworn liege. He would however be willing to bind his destiny to that of another, if the other person proves to be benevolent and his cause is just, in the eyes of Daigen.
If possible, he enjoys practicing combat skills with a sword or a polearm, writing poetry and meditating at sunrise. He greatly enjoys tea ceremonies, as they bring him some kind of inner peace.
COUNTRY: Levania
OCCUPATION: Wandering warrior monk
BRIEF BIO: Katsuhide was born the third son of Sanada Iekatsu, a notable samurai in Levania. Because of his noble birth, Katsuhide had been educated in the way of the warrior, till the age of fourteen. During that time he learned how to wield weapons, mostly swords, how to hold tea ceremonies and how to write poetry. While not excelling in all three of those disciplines, he did greatly enjoy them all and harbours good memories about his childhood.
A few months after his fourteenth birthday, his father died of a chronic liver disease, thought to have originated from his alcohol abuse and rather lavish lifestyle. This event had influenced Katsuhides life in two ways. Firstly, he has since had a great distaste for alcohol and excessive and extravagant meals. While at younger years, he might have been seen nipping away a cup of sake when his parents wouldn't notice, he completely abandoned the beverage out of his life after his fathers death.
The second influence Iekatsu's death had on Katsuhides life was his introduction to a local monastery. His father, being the family head of a rather distinguished family had designated Katsuhides 10-year older brother his heir. In order to protect this position, the brother sent Katsuhide to said monastery, where he began a secular life.
While he didn't feel much for the religious preachings of his teachers, Katsuhide did enjoy the life at the monastery. He had come to appreciate the view the monks had on life and greatly enjoyed the serenity of meditation and martial arts. When he reached the age of seventeen, he was given the name Daigen, meaning Great Mystery. Under the tutelage of one of the monks, master Tenshin, Katsuhide learned how to apply certain herbs to the body in order to heal all kinds of ailments and injuries. He was also introduced to the many healing rituals using sacred stones, though he did not get the hang of that as much as he did to healing with plants.
After his eighth year in the monastery, a group of wandering farmers came by seeking refuge, after a group of raiders had sacked their village. It was by talking to those people that Katsuhide learned that there were many more people in need beyond the safe walls of the secluded holy place. He decided then to leave and journey through the countryside of Levania. He first went to visit his elderly home, where he had received a hearty welcome by his brother, who gave Katsuhide a horse and lavish amounts of traveling equipment and a protective lamellar armor. After two years of traveling the countryside, Katsuhide, by then having fully adopted the name of Daigen, arrives upon the scene of a great battle...
PIC/CHARACTER DESCRIPTION:
Daigen is a tall, lean man with an athletic build. He has short dark hair and no facial hair. His eyes are dark brown and lay deep in their sockets, making him in combination with his slanted eyebrows have a rather hawk-like look to them. His nose is rather sharp and his mouth is rather thin, having little to no lips. His chin is rather strong and pronounced, as are his high cheekbones.
When traveling, he wears simple dark-blue robes, sandals and a straw hat. His only visible weapon is his naginata, whose blade he keeps covered with a leather sheath and doubles as walking stick. Besides a naginata he also has a katana and a bow, both of which he keeps packed on his horse, together with the armour his brother had given him.
ETHER INFECTED?: No, though as part of character development I would like him to get infected during his upcoming travels.
note: in order as not to hamper any action of the current battlefield, I'd choose Daigen to take the role of spectator for the moment.

Forum: 1x1 Interest Checks
If you're still searching for "partners", I would be interested in either (and both) the vampire-hunter or the jailor-jailed storylines.
The good gentleman Sinistred, at last, we meet again!
My answers to the questionnaire (though you'd probably have guessed them already)
1. If yes, it should be rare
2. multiple species is allright
3. custom universes
3.1 alternate history
science fiction
4.1 I do believe playing factions within a realm gives a certain feel of depth one doesn't get when all creating their own country/nation
4.2 Challenge accepted (I suppose the challenge of having a multiple faction-realm is meant)
4.3 A combination of the two might get a bit complicated, unless the nations are built by multiple people
5.1 No, it wouldn't give enough room for creativity
5.2 free form
6. No, I'm terrible with dices, they simply hate me.
7. When I think of something I'll tell you

I was wondering if there was any room left for another character, or has the story already developed too far?
