~Appearance~

Full Name: Va'an Abendroth

Alias/Famous Name: The Eternal

Age: He won't tell, and claims he's forgotten. At least a hundred or more years old.

Gender: Male

Seishou Affinity: Dark

Race: Vampire (Does NOTTTTT!!!! sparkle)

Weapon: He has a sword, a tachi, but he doesn't use it. Says its very dear to him.

Keepsake: Tsukuyomi (not Itachi's...or Sasuke's--Spoiler!!!!!)

Keepsake Grade: It varies, depending on the current moon phase. At full its a rank S but that declines with each passing moon phase, except it becomes SS when the moon is new.

Keepsake Effect: Yomi: At its weakest it can control the direction and flow of movement of an opponent so long as he/she is connected with the ground. As the moon phases wax towards the full moon it can call on the souls of the dead, and at the full moon even raise the dead in an area. While the moon phases wane towards the new moon it can manipulate gravity to some degree, allowing the keeper to walk on surfaces otherwise physically impossible and redirect projectiles, as well as other things subject to gravity. During a new moon it can transport the keeper or anyone he desires to Yomi, the shadowy land of the dead, where the spirits of the dead roam. Not a fun place to be.


~Background~

Height: 5'6"

Weight: 130

Hair: Raven, would you say?

Eyes: Oh, just look at the pic...but I will describe. Small, and slightly angular, rather like a serpent's. The pupils are even a bit more narrow than they should be.

Personality: ...Its impossible to tell. He's always a mystery, but usually seems...charming, or else an a**. Always clever though.
His favorite, and seemingly only, pastime is causing chaos and raising a little hell.

Family: None, really.

Affiliation: I'll have to give it a look around. For now, alone.

Bio/History: He's a man mentioned as 'The Eternal' throughout the ages in various significant texts, known to have been involved in expeditions through the Godslayer Mountains, claims to be the one who taught the necromancers their art as well as many other of the dark arts, said to have founded the black market of Roughshot in the Sairok Desert, aided the inventor of the first gear engine with his design when heaven first fell in G.E.A.R.B.O.L.T. seeming to possess extraordinary knowledge of that floating structure, a frequenter of the libraries of the Arius Islands where many of his published works are, though he says they are all under different writing names and even boasts that he is the writer of the book that brought hell to Trance Village, and claims to have been at the heart of the calamity that changed Mistvail Forest when it happened.
A man of mystery and legend who has just a bit of real history behind his wild claims to back them up. Either he is telling some of the truth, or else he has spent his years becoming very well educated...and a very good liar.
Most recently, and this is the only confirmed bit, he had ties to the Raven Claw clan of mages, but has since broken those ties, and now wonders on his own, preferring the company of none, searching for someone, a daughter of a powerful Raven Claw member....


~Magic~

Dark magic, which controls and manipulates shadows, and darkness to various ends. Also draws in darkness for rapid, high-speed regeneration. Also can become intangible at will, but only to pass through solid objects, not to make them go through him (i.e. can't make bullets pass through him...well, not without injury). Of course all this only works at night...or in the dark. It has to be pretty significantly dark though, with an almost complete absence of light.

~Special Abilities~

Increased speed and strength, especially the speed, often moving fast enough not to be seen, and a certain impartiality to sunlight though it doesn't burn him to ash. He just doesn't like it.
As a vampire he has significantly more Seishou than a human, and in addition he can take the seishou of those he bites to restore and increase his own.
His own unique power is that of shape-shifting, which he calls mastery over form, allowing him to change not just his appearance, but his shape and size as well. So, he can become literally anything, or anyone he wanted to be.

~Appearance~
User Image

Full Name: Kisuke

Alias/Famous Name: X.X.X. ("Triple X" or just "X-san")

Age: 27

Gender: Male

Seishou Affinity: Twilight (both light and dark--does not sparkle)

Race: Caucasian? Human anyway.

Weapon(s) of Choice: Three swords. A katana, a tachi, and a nodachi.

Keepsake: None.

Keepsake Grade: N/A

Keepsake Effect: N/A


~Personal Background~


Height: 5'8"

Weight: 150 lbs.

Hair: White, medium-long, shaggy but also somehow neat.

Eyes: Deep-red, small but round.

Personality: Strong in both determination and will. He is possessed of an unbreakable fighting spirit and never backs down from a challenge, while constantly seeking new and stronger opponents.
Clearly it is his one and only goal to further himself and his skill, which is reflected in his personality by his usually silent demeanor, though seemingly always deep in thought.
The strong and silent, but brooding swordsman--and also dashing. Surprisingly, however, he is not all that serious during a fight. His true and aloof nature comes out during a fight, and he often makes idle comments about his and his opponents moves much like a student making careful mental notes or maintaining his train of thought.

Physical Build: He has a light frame, but well-built in an athletic sort of way so that he is not too bulky yet sturdy as well as light-footed. He is after all a swordsman.
Of course he is much stronger than he appears--who isn't?

Family: Undecided.

Affiliation: Is there any organization built on sword fighting? If not, nope~ He's a loner and prefers it that way. Being subservient to one group or another would only slow him down...unless the contrary is true, in which case he would become a part of an organization that would facilitate his finding new opponents that would help further his skill.
(Not joining the Taboo Swordsmen =_= ...though I wouldn't mind fighting them x3)

Bio/History: He has trained in the way of the sword for many years now and such is his skill with a blade that he has taken to traveling by himself to further master his art. Ever in search of new opponents he hopes to one day surpass his human limitations and gain strength and skill enough to be called kenshin--or "sword god"--the title of a master samurai. As such, he is not opposed to fighting under one nation's banner or another, so long as there are strong opponents to fight, though, he knows no fealty after a battle is won.

Despite being fully devoted mind, body, and soul to the path he walks, the way of the sword (bushido?), he is somewhat conflicted on the true purpose of such a path. Fighting only brings about killing and death, destruction, which is the path of carnage. Is the pursuit of strength, then, no more than the path to becoming a demon and not a god, or is there a noble truth in the way of the sword? These are the thoughts that plague his conscious. If he wants to become stronger he must fight and if he fights then he must kill. However, senseless killing is slaughter and there is no truth in that. Keeping in mind that a man's spirit must not be broken in order to walk the path of the sword, he continues to carry his blade by strength of arm and strength of will, though it weighs heavily on his heart. In truth, he would give up his way to have the chance to have a family, but he'd never admit that to anyone--not even himself.
In this sense, his is a sword for truth, and though his path may be stained red, he will walk it until the day he dies by carrying his blade at his side and carrying himself on it.

~Magic~
Iie, uptights are uptight.

Kisuke upholds a code of conduct in a fight which for him means no magic.

~Special Abilities~
Being possessed of the rare and very powerful twilight seishou affinity, his seishou is a force in and of itself. Though he cannot control it in a traditional sense for instance to cast spells or even channel it properly, it is powerful enough to knock a man back and anyone too weak to stand under it will...er, not be able to stand.
Utilizing this powerful force through willpower alone he is capable of performing two extraordinary techniques. The first of which is Zekkai, or "Absolute Boundary" which can repel an attack and even harm an enemy. It appears as an aura of seishou flickering both black and white like flames dancing on the outline of his body, and he keeps it on for most of the duration of his fights, but only if conventional means aren't enough to protect himself. Needless to say it is not an 'ultimate shield' or other 'invincible' hack/glitch/cheat/omni/god-mod. Think of it like spiritual pressure if you're a fan of bleach. The attack must be stronger than his innate seishou in order to physically harm him, and it takes the edge off potentially fatal blows. The second technique is Shinkai, or "True Boundary" which is in essence a more powerful version of Zekkai.
There are two large differences between Zekkai and Shinkai. While Zekkai is used to repel an attack, Shinkai is used to create a field where only swordplay is allowed--however while this is active even Kisuke cannot use his other abilities and he cannot maintain it for very long because of the drain it puts on his seishou. It is for this reason that Shinkai consumes much more power than Zekkai. Additionally, Zekkai is created from negative feelings and reinforces those feelings in the user. Therefore it furthers the domination of negative feelings in the user and should not be used excessively...which might be part of why Kisuke is so emo. However, this also means that Kisuke is incredibly proficient in Zekkai, as those negative thoughts he harbors empower the technique. In other words, the technique feeds on those thoughts, but in turn feeds those thoughts as well. Shinkai has no such nature.
His third special ability, and this is not tied into magic or seishou in any way--it is simply a technique developed through practice and meditation--is a state of mind he developed to further his swordfighting. It is called Muso--"Thoughtless." In this state Kisuke isolates his thoughts from his actions causing him to lose all pretense of hesitation and restraint, thus increasing his physical abilites as well as his zekkai since it is a product of emotion, which is a thing separate, if not entirely independent from thought. Also because this is a state of 'closed consciousness', he is totally unaware (technically you could call this a state of unconsciousness) but still able to attack and defend, driven by the will to fight, and he is even capable of using Shinkai in this state, however he may recklessly use it or otherwise unknowingly exhaust himself and cause his body to collapse.
He can still be mislead by illusions, since his body will react to attack anything it perceives as the enemy, however techniques which target the mind--and not the senses--directly will only slow him down, as it will force him to break the trance. In other words it is a self-induced hypnosis which can be broken by another influence on his mind...otherwise he'd be trapped in his own subconsciousness internally whilst trapped inside ******** externally.

...It goes without saying that his exceptional swordplay is his most powerful ability, and although I wouldn't call it a 'special' ability it does classify as something of a...well, special ability.

~Extra~
Very handsome in 'manly beauty' sort of way.
