Oda Natsuya

Alias: Kyubi

Age: 25

There is grace and poise about Natsuya more so than others, he walks with elegance, his steps are light and are often unheard. He steps out of the shadows as if he commands them and entertains his admirers and enemies alike that he might be entirely the monster many think they are. Often given odd looks as he chooses to wear traditional Japanese clothing.

Traditionally when he’s not on a job, when is he never on a job, his casual clothing consist of many wafuku clothing. Hakamas with kimonos, hanten or other styles of coats depending on the weather. With geta often when he is not fighting.

Natsuya Unmasked

When he is fighting or on duty he often wears karusan-bakama, with waraji, shinguards, and an armored kimono top with tekkou.

His mask is less a traditional fox mask than others, choosing for it to appear just like the dog’s head, with wide ears, one of them has been clearing missing, and a veil.

Kyubi

His hair is black and often decorated with different types of hair decorations when he isn’t on the job. He stands about 5’7”, 170 cm, and weighs around 120 pounds, 54 kg. He tends to have one side of his hair longer than the other, and his irises are blue with a limbal ring of yellow.

His Bikaku is that of Nine tails like that of the Kyubi beast of myth. While Natsuya might not be as fast as a Rinkaku, or Ukaku, he has some benefits of tails. Such as constricting and holding down his prey. He also isn’t as restricted with movement as other Bikaku might be considering he has nine appendages to chose from.

When bodyguarding Mika out in public during her tours and concerts, Honda Ayumi her manager has asked Natsuya to wear modern clothing.

Natsuya Suit

Personality:

Natsuya is a quiet a soul, he doesn’t say much, doesn’t speak out of turn. Actually most of the time he’s a quiet old soul. Which creeps some people out because while he’s not near as hot blooded as many of these young people are these days. In fact most might joke that he might as well be an old man stuck in a young man’s body. All that handsome youth he has in his face is often betrayed by his my pace attitude.

Not to say he isn’t efficient at his job, in fact he is quite efficient at what he does. Reliable and resourceful he is often best used as a spymaster ironically considering his kagune of birth. When Natsuya is working he can become quite ice cold to others, but that’s mainly because he’s focusing on the task at hand.

Though he doesn’t say much even when he isn’t working. He often likes to converse through task. Some of his favorite past times when he’s not on the prowl, are flower arrangements. A task he was taught by a pseudo mother figure. Despite have no use for silverware, he likes to set the tables and likes to fold the napkins on the table for the Birdcage if Alice allows him.

Meanwhile, he also likes to play shogi and often when he gets the time he plays at local shops. He finds it peculiar, but something familiar.

Though not everything you see is what you get with Natsuya. Being raised in the strict environment he grew up and picking up on the things he has picked up. Strict schedules and holding people to their promises is a must and an expectation. Anyone who doesn’t uphold their promises loses his respect.

He also has a distaste for the noisy music of the current century and he also doesn’t like the way the youth conducts themselves. While most people try to laugh this off as his elderly tendencies coming in, there is a slight antagonistic viewpoint Natsuya has about it. Though his current job protecting Mika has made him ease up a little on the animosity towards “rebel youth culture”.

Equipment:

Cellphone - Case provided by Mika as a thank you gift

"Isn't it cute" -Mika

Folding Fan - as seen in his appearance

Shogi Pieces - it’s clear in the felt bag where he carries his pieces, that someone had carved the symbols of the pieces into them. They hold significant meaning because they were gifts.

Satchel - with pens, notebooks, and textbooks. He has decided that on his spare time he would like to educate himself.

Skills:

Ninetail Judo -

Natsuya grew up wrestling with his brothers and sisters, mainly his brothers. The techniques he would learn would be attached to the martial arts known as judo. Being a rather slow medium pace Kagune he learned in time to extend his Judo practice of takedowns, pins, and powerful chokeholds to extend to his kagune as well. Using some tails to subdue with pins, takedowns, even chokeholds if he so wishes, and other tails to cut if survivability is not a concern. Natsuya is deadly in battle, but he is also known to show restraint when need be with his arrange of non lethal takedowns if ordered.

Cold reading -

Natsuya is very good at picking up people, he’s learned to read their body language and make general guesses about them based on the way they dress, or the way they present themselves. In this manner he tends to use the technique of scammers and mentalist, in order to make estimate assumptions of a person to direct them towards the answer he is looking for.

Florisity -

While Shogi might be a hobby of his, Natsuya tends to do better at floral arrangements. Something he spent hours sitting with his mother figure doing. He would spend hours with the right color coordination and the volume of flowers. Sometimes Natusya extends this to the vases of flowers in the Birdcage or working part time at the floral shop whenever they need help. Natsuya has an eye or a gift, or so believes the floral lady at the flower shop that he tends to help out.

History:

The Oda family is an old name and an even older bloodline. Mostly of Humans, though old stories tell tales of Ghouls who lived among them. The Oda family were a prevalent name in not only the Edo period, but extended well into the Meiji period.

Though mainly only to be talked about as a family of darkness, satan worshipers, and monster tales of strangers in the night. All though very much true. The Oda family viewed the Ghouls as something to be worshiped or revered, not feared. They saw the Ghouls as being sent to Humans to wipe away the impure.

The Oda family watching decades and eras change a way of life ingrained in their bloodline as a spiritual family for a long time living in a secluded shrine visited by only the truly faithful. They retreated and began different religious practices in hopes to gain a better future in the afterlife.

Ghouls were often protected by the Oda family, said to come to the family estate and shrine for protection and well treatment. Sacrificial rites were made in their name, as a way to clean the impure and uncleaned.

The ones who abandoned tradition for a more “modern” life. Girls mainly would go missing, ones seen as as impure. Eventually the village the family watched over was fedup enough with the Oda family, that they were attacked. In hopes to rid the family and the ghouls.

But the family legacy lived on for countless of decades. Hidden away in the mountains. No one dared venture to the shrine or the estate. Till they became more than an old wives tale or some kind of myth or legend. They were attacked several times by angry villagers, upset mothers and fathers. And saw great losses in their family members in that time.

Then during the World Wars the family saw a few years of peace as Japan rebuilt itself turning more and more modern before their eyes. Destroy every tradition they valued.

Natsuya was born in the modern era, as the family called it, in May just as spring was beginning to touch the Japanese countryside. He was born in an estate with no modern lighting, or modern accessories. Everything was done the way it had been done for countless years. Him and his brothers and sisters, some human, other ghouls, but all considered family under one name despite being more like cousins, brothers, sisters, uncles, and aunts.

The family was relying on their Recruiters, brave souls willing to go the city that disgusted them so much in order to bring gullible youthful individuals to the estate under the guise. Some promise that they would never actually keep. These individuals were considered impure, young men or woman who acted in rebellious anarchy ways that the family had so much disdain for.

As more young men and woman went missing, the more an investigation was set out to track where these individuals went.

In the meantime Natsuya was raised by the woman of the house. Not everyone had a singular individual mother, but instead they were ladies of the houses. Which seemed to rather betray their traditional way of life.

The house is where he was taught many things. From the martial arts his fathers taught him, practiced with his brothers and sisters. To spending quiet evenings relaxing with his aunt to set the floral arrangements for the house dinners.

Life then was strict, routine, there was an expectation that you were some kind of precious treasured individual when you were a Ghoul. Expected festivals. Expected celebrations no one else in the world had. All which would be shattered when the family was finally hit by the one power that could outright destroy them, the Government.

More specifically the CCG who ran investigations of the missing modern men and woman. The family finally may have met their match. At first fighting back the CCG. The lack of modern equipment or modern toolery was probably their downfall as the CCG had tools and utility clearly updated whenever there was a new breakthrough.

Few escaped. Some were arrested. Others killed for their resistance. And Natsuya was one of the escaped. One of the family Recruiters at that time had loose, loose connections or ties with someone who might know how to contact an Alice.

That contact did contact Alice and Natsuya was brought to her fold. That was only six years ago. Natsuya current main task has been to keep Mika safe.

For the last few years Alice and Natsuya have had a romantic passion, they aren't quite together because it's been far more informal than that. But he takes orders from Alice because he respects her. A lot of those who have allied with the Ghouls watch the unofficial couple unfold with a will they won't they, it be great if they did attitude.

Rushing to the living corridors, she first opened a spare bedroom left for her and began to rummage around. Thinking about that beautiful girl downstairs with that hurt arm, she had beautiful white hair, and her blue irises were so dreamy. They were almost like the sky. She knew something good must still be coming from this day. It might start off looking bad with darkness, attacks on random people, but it would end up in making new friends.

Aha. This would look absolutely perfect on that girl, she had the figure for the little sailor girl like uniform. The girl might even appreciate it a bit more than her fairly stuffy looking suit. Maybe she’d let her do her hair. It seemed like an odd thing to talk about when she heard Travis and the girl had gotten attacked, but had to look at the positives.

At least they were not dead. Alice and the others would act swiftly, she knew Alice took care of her own. Just look at her as an example. She had to believe in the good of the world in order to deal with its darkness. Grabbing the dress and running into the bathroom real quick for bandages, gauze, and something to clean the wounds with she finally entered with a bright smile.

Placing the bandages on the counter, she turned to Travis real quick.

“I’ll get you all cleaned up and take care of you, okay,” she says her voice and the way she carried herself she almost looked like she could illuminate naturally.

Turning to the girl, “My name is Sasaki Mika and I’ll take care of you. I got you a little dress to replace your torn clothes.” She says holding the dress up to the young girl.

The Dress

Here they were having yet another nice day. The sun was high in the air, the birds singing, people were busy going to work. Alice was making coffee and everyone was getting along well, the girl hadn’t responded to her, but something immediate suddenly occurred. As Travis and a young female walked into the store.

Travis eyes were red and irritated, his shoulder was cut into deeply. She gasped placing a hand over her mouth at first. The young girl had a cut on her arm. She immediately came over to Travis side who was handed a glass of water to dab the stuff out of his eyes.

“Oh my this is horrible,” she told him sweetly, “Let me get you something to clean up that wound.” She frantically moved away from him and then gave another glance to the very pretty girl. She wondered why she was dressed that way. She could be even prettier she thought to herself. Though she wondered if that was an appropriate thought process given the circumstances.

She looked over to Alice, “I’ll get some bandages for the meantime. And I have clothes. Emergency clothes here.”

She flailed her arms around for a second. Here they were having a nice day and something horrible happened. “I can go to the living corridors, right?” Sometimes she had little sleepovers with the Ghouls because they were so much fun.

@knifeman@Old Amsterdam@Alias

She always liked this place, she wished people could see this side of Ghouls more. Just like them. They had friends, cared for another, carried welcoming conversations. They made her feel as welcomed as any living creature should.

Before Katashi said anything her heart skipped a beat. How had she not noticed Alice through the window? Alice was always beautiful to her, raven black hair, and these beautiful eyes that seemed to look deeply into your soul.

Mika-cam:

“My little song bird, how could have forgotten about me?” Alice asked as she twirled a strand of her black hair around her finger, “I’ll make you coffee, but I will have to punish you later.” she winks at her.

Mika felt her face go hot for a second and she looked away frantically. Her eye then glanced the new person she hadn’t met yet. How rude of her! She got up from her seat immediately and walked over to the small young little lady.

She smiled at the rough dressed individual. Her lifestyle shown in her clothes, but Mika saw an adorable doll.

“I apologize for not introducing myself,” Mika told her grabbing the young girl’s hand, “I am Sasaki Mika. And you are?”

She was adorable, Mika wanted to dress her up like she were her little sister and that made her very excited. She was already thinking about a collection of different fabrics and different colors she could use on the young girl.

Mika turned her head towards Katashi who was complimenting Alice’s coffee brewing skills, Mika shined with another one of her glittering smile. Her brown hair caught the light.

“Alice makes the best cup of coffee, it’s warm and inviting like love,” Mika tells him, but turns to Alice, “The secret ingredient in your cup is love.” she gives Alice a warm and gentle stare.

@Alias

Katashi was a nice man she wished people didn’t judge him too fast. Sometimes people were often so cruel and jaded. They said awful things and rarely apologized for them, there was something about Katashi she admired.

She melted at hearing his dulcet tones and she just continued smiling.

Mika Cam:

“Your eyes are beautiful when the light hits them,” Katashi tells her.

She looks away and blushes. He was really coming onto her wasn’t he.

“Yes a lovely day,” she said nervously and turned back to him, “Did you finish your coffee? I was thinking of getting myself something too.”

The Fate of Ward 8: A Tokyo Ghoul RP

Brushing her hair it felt like a good day to have a day off. The sun was shining and she really had a good feeling about this day. It was going to be a good day. Certainly the news was disturbing and the lives of others horribly disrupted, but you had to look forward to something good. When the sun was so happy and shining it must mean someone was having a really good day. Or something really good was going to happen.

Looking through her closet she picked her dress for the day and stared at herself in the mirror. Putting on a shiny shimmery lip gloss that made her lips sparkle, she lifted her eyes up with her massacra brush and smiled. Twirling she looked at herself and grab the ends of the stand mirror.

outfit

“Today is going to be a great day Mi,” she told herself. Nodding her head she grabbed her purse, slipped on a pair of matching blue flats and walked out of her apartment. Some would have complained her apartment was too luxurious, but the reality it was something inherited to her. She wished people could see the good in the world despite it being bogged down at times by the worse things.

She believed when the world was smiling you smiled with the world and when the world was crying, then you help others because the world was crying with someone. Leaving the apartment complex she started on her daily walk. She liked the fresh air despite it being in the city and liked the travel in the subways despite it being busy.

People recognized her, but she didn’t fret about it. She smiled and signed their photos or took pictures with them because it wasn’t fair of her to turn them away. She didn’t understand people who turned other people away when they admired their work or respected them. They wanted to be a part of her community and she was a part of her community. She wasn’t outside of it.

Strolling out of the subway she thought about heading to the park, but something was nudging her to go to the coffeeshop first. Skipping sometimes and lightly walking airily on her feet, she finally turned the corner to the coffee shop that reminded her of cafes she had seen on the corners of European streets. Fixing her dress she looked through the window and her heart skipped a bit. Red hair and a smoky look to his eye. There was Katashi.

“Be cool Mika,” she whispered to herself. As she walked into the coffee shop with a smile on her face. Turning around she stared at Katashi. Her heart going a bunch of steps. Dancing to the rhythm of her anticipation.

She had met Katashi only a handful of times, the first was to fix up his mask, the second was to greet him. But meeting him felt like destiny. He could be her Prince Charming. She imagined him in shining armor on a horse, and it made her face go hot. She fixed her hair and looked at him.

“Katashi-kun,” she said nervously, “Hello.”

But it was too late her daydreaming fantasies were taking over.

Mika-Cam:

“I was actually waiting for you Mika-san,” Katashi told her, he smiles at her and she feels her hearting racing at this point.

“You were?” she ask him.

“Yes, something told me to come to the coffeshop on this wonderful day. And it so happens that I bump into you.” When Katashi turns to her, his eyes gleams. There is a dazzling ray of lights, roses bloom near him.

“Oh K-tan you shouldn’t say things like that,” Mika tells him.

“But it is the truth, please sit down, I’ll order you a coffee,” Katashi tells her.
-end-

She sits down from across him and smiles brightly.

“How are you?” she ask, “It’s a nice day.”

The Fate of Ward 8: A Tokyo Ghoul RP

Sasaki Mika

“The Beautiful Blossom”

Idol Name: Himehana

Faction: Human - Ghoul Sympathizer

Age: 19

“Ara iyada! There’s so many people outside of my apartment. Eeee.”

Appearance:

While her appearances changes over the course of her photoshoots and the covers of her albums or the concerts she’ll be performing in. Somethings don’t change for the 5’3, 160cm, young female. She’s beautiful with red near auburn hair, and golden irises.

Most already say she smells beautiful and sweet, though they may be simply a creepy fanbase. Her wardrobe mostly consist of many different outfits that paint an illustration of how her day is going to go.

Her weight will be known by no one and she refuses to give it. So this information has been lost to anyone wanting to know. Instead she will distract you with her clothesline, that were also designed for her different albums.

Beautiful in Punk

Music Accompaniment

Sometimes a girl has to put on an outfit that makes her feel like a badass. This outfit is one of those outfits. With a cute button down white shirt, she pairs with a purple vest that is connected by a chain. She wears a black skirt with a plaid purple pattern, black stockings, and cute black buckle shoes. She wore this outfit when performing with the Star Prince in the See Lights Music video.

Japanese Flower Goddess

Musical Accompaniment

Taking inspirations from the west, but adding her own interpretations of her outfit this outfit is considered her most prized and most beautiful. At least according to the magazines. It paired well with her songs with an eastern flair.

Just a Girl at the End of the Day

Everyday Girl

Musical Accompaniment

When she’s not getting dressed up for a shoot, or a music video. She is just an ordinary girl. Who prefers frilly dresses with some Western influences.

Personality:

Mika is not a mean girl, in fact she’s generally a nice girl. A rarity these days when it comes to the idol business. She’s often busy helping other people to improve their lives. She is often very genuine which makes others hate her because that sweet temperament that shows up on cameras is not a dishonest lie they can manipulate.

She sticks up for others when she feels she has to. And doesn’t care too much for fighting with others. She has an extremely nurturing and maternal side to her that makes others feel comfortable with her. The only negative thing most people will complain about is her obsessive nature and taking people as her new dolls. Well some say they feel like dolls.

She doesn’t do it out of any malice, being a naturally creative and inspired young woman she tends to let her passion get the best of her. She has a habit of making people who might not want it outfits and then taking photos of them. Which makes her seem a bit voyeuristic. Honestly if she does it is a compliment about you. But most view it with negativity and shun her for such an attitude.

She can also sometimes be a hopeless romantic at times. Turning down many men who have tried to court her, in hopes she will instead find her prince charming. She seeks and hopes for a fairy tale ending. And day dreams about finding herself the prince that she feels wholeheartedly connected to body and soul.

She has a horrible habit of spending money on others. She isn’t trying to buy them with money, though again some people might interpret her behaviors that way. Honestly she hates seeing people who she loves and cares for hurt, so she tries ways, sometimes extravagant ways, to cheer them up anyway she can.

She loves strawberry flavored anything and loves the color pink.

Equipment:

Her Purse - which contains;

Miss Bunny

A tube of shiny pink lipstick

A wallet

A Tribute to the Original Princess

A cellphone

Cellphone

And emergency thread and needles. You never know when you’ll need to sew something back up.

Skills:

Dancing - She is an exceptional choreographed dancer. Who knows several styles from hip hop to more contemporary styles of dancing

Music Composition - She is exceptional at musical production. This includes creating the sounds for the music, writing the lyrics, and editing it all together.
Fashion Designer - She is good with a sewing needle and even a sewing machine. All her outfits she has designed herself and she takes commissions to make other people outfits. Her outfits are one of a kind. Sometimes she makes outfits for people she truly adores.

History:

People will always talk, now that she’s in the spotlight it will always seem like they want to talk negatively to put her down someway or another. The story goes that she was born in Gaienmea in May to a model Sasaki Natsumi, while her father was a businessman in another industry. They use to call her their spring child and she commuted to a nice school.

It is why it was such a shock when the famous Sasaki Natsumi and her wealthy husband Sasaki Jin were found murdered in their own home. The family lived happily together in a rather expensive penthouse and at the time Natsumi and her husband were criticized for their exceptional wealth by disgruntled individuals stuck in the poverty bubble.

Natsumi did what she could help, but she had a fashion career to chase. Plus two children, her younger brother Masato and herself. Both went to different private schools, one for girls, and the other for boys. Both parents believing it would keep their children on the straight and narrow.

When Mika was ten her family home was invaded. The reports never got it straight the motivations of the invaders. Some say it was a robbery that had gone wrong. While other reports said it was political activist fed up with the wealthy living it large. Whatever it may be the young Mika was witnessed to the massacre of her family slaughtered by angry men. Human men.

She would have bit the dust if not for a Ghoul coming to her rescue at the time. That Ghoul she would later find out to be Alice. Devoured and ripped the men apart in front of her eyes. Mika too terrified or paralyzed to move from the scenes of butchery she had witnessed.

The Ghoul offered to take her with her. Mika hadn’t really anything to fear about them. Since she was a kid no Ghoul had ever really bothered her, though she was never certain whether or not she had ever met a Ghoul.

There was something about Mika that made her smell impossibly wonderful, but taste exceptionally like garbage. Something about her sense seemed to put Ghouls at ease. Most of them in her presence have always appeared awfully quite tame.

The past isn’t something Mika likes to recall. It’s not that she doesn’t have any mercy nor is that she is lacking grief. But she chose to move on because the world is bloody and is going to get bloodier. But people like to bring up her past to put her effort and hardwork down.

She used the name given to her Sasaki to rise from her bloody fall and rise to fame by her own merits. She wishes to show the same kindness to Ghouls and Ghouls have shown to her. She wishes people couldn’t see what made Monsters were not if they were Ghouls or Humans, but whether or not they were good or bad people who made good or bad decisions.

Knowing Alice for as long as she has Mika has been given special task to design the mask for the Ghouls. She spends time visiting them in the coffee shop and even making them outfits they might like or boad them some kind of confidence..
