Name: Tommy Janjiro
Age: 37
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Personality: Tommy Janjiro has been at this too long in his eyes. Having watched his friends die, Tommy has become jaded to the DDF. He’s at a weird point in his life where he doesn’t believe the DDF can actually achieve anything doing what they are doing, since there will always be demons unless something changes, yet he can’t just stand by and let people get hurt.
Despite being a grumpy individual who tells people he doesn’t care, he really does. There’s a part of him that remembers what it was like to be a little kid looking up to the DDF as the defenders of humanity. He remembers the hope those DDF members inspired in him, and if he can instil that hope into the next generation of DDF agents, he could die happy.
Behind closed doors, Tommy Janjiro had made it clear to his supervisors that he thinks the DDF is run incorrectly. While CADI may react quickly to demonic threats, and Tommy believes they are always one step behind. Tommy believes that the DDF needs to spend more resources on becoming more proactive instead of reactive.
While not at work, Tommy can be found either enjoying a nice red wine in his apartment. Often with a book on the Occult, studying theological texts and theories. Or found in his workshop. Tinkering with something.
Skills: Tommy has been in business a long time. As such he has the skills one would expect. A decent marksman and demon Hunter.
Tommy is also quite good at taking things apart and putting them back together. Constantly looking to keep his hands busy, Tommy has picked up odd craftsman skills like whittling and metal working. Most notably, he has learned how to create bullets, and has the necessary tools in his workshop to facilitate this hobby. Which has proven very useful since he modifies his own ammunition.
Contracted Shadow: Dracula, Lord of Vampires
Contract Type: Possession
Contract Rank: B
Contract Abilities:
- Prince of Darkness - Possessing this particular aspect of Dracula, Prince of Darkness has given Tommy the ability to manipulate a dark smoke like substance. These shadows can gain substance or remain fluid like smoke. This smoke like power is stronger in the dark, and weaker in sunlight.
- Vlad the Impaler - This particular ability doesn’t do much on its own. After his blood comes in contact with demonic energy, Tommy can cause the blood the blood to grow into a crimson crystalline spear. While slicing his hand open can equip Tommy with a makeshift spear, the real devastating application comes from Tommy putting his blood in bullets. Creating these impaling spears within demons. This particular ability is a form of blood alchemy and is one of the few abilities that doesn’t weaken during the day.
- Vampire King - As one would expect from making a contract with the Vampire King, Tommy has gained a form of Vampirism. While he does possess the enhanced strength, speed and other signature abilities, drawing his power from the greatest vampire has given him a few extra benefits. Unlike normal vampires, sunlight isn’t lethal, but it does weaken his abilities significantly. However, he still needs to be invited in to residential areas due to his contract. Another side effect of his contract is that he must consume human blood. A condition that the DDF helps him fulfil by supplying him with blood bags from the local hospital.
Brief Backstory: Tommy Janjiro was born to an American woman teaching English in Japan and a Japanese executive. His Father had hired his mother to teach him English so he could expand his business to the west.
His mother stopped working to raise Tommy, but his Father was making enough money that it wasn’t a problem.
When Tommy was eight, his family was attacked by a Nure-Onna while on a family trip to the coast. The Nure-Onna killed Tommy’s mother. During the incident Tommy was carried from the scene by his Father while he looked back at the DDF agents and couldn’t help but think how brave they were. Jumping into harm’s way to save others, and vowed one day to be like them.
After the incident where he lost his mother, Tommy was sent to boarding school by his father. Tommy kept trying to make sense of what happened that fateful day. His Father was of little help as he didn’t want to talk about it. Struggling with the concept of faith, he found himself walking the school grounds one day. He made a good friend. Leon.
One day Leon and Tommy ventured off the campus grounds, and went exploring the nearby forest. Before Tommy knew what was going on, Leon was attacked by a Jubokko. The vampiric tree spirit killed his best friend. Tommy ran back to the school to ask for help, but no one believed him for three days. After Leon wasn’t seen for three days, Tommy’s cries were finally given credit and a search party was sent out.
After losing two people who he was close to, before he reached the age of eighteen, to hematophagic demons made Tommy obsessed with finding a way to stop them. He spent years distancing himself from his father as he studied demonology, and found a way to forge a Shadow Contract with arguably the most powerful Hematophagic Demon, Dracula.
After forging the Shadow contract and joining the DDF, he came out of his shell. Achieving his childhood dream. He didn’t expect to lose many friends over his career. Moving branch every time his team suffered a large catastrophe and had to rebuild.
Prior to his Tokyo posting, he had a small rural job. He thought it would be the one where he could settle down. However a wolf demon tore through and killed two of the three DDF agents that were stationed there. As the only survivor, he stayed just long enough for replacements to be found before transferring to Tokyo.
The reason he wasn’t around during the start of the RP is that he was away at an international DDF conference.
