"Sengouka Lore" Character Applications

[bury the year]

千降花殺刀流

[spoiler=Character Form]Name: Japanese ONLY. It must be realistic, and relatively original. (No Ichigoes, please.) If you can, please use kanji. If you need ideas, use this.

Species: Human or youkai. If a youkai, specify what kind. Note, the main cast will be mostly humans.

Age: Apparent age works, too. Nothing too young, though.

Gender:

Appearance: General description. No pictures. Just hair, clothes, any scars, etc.

Personality: General, so I have room to fill it out.

Rough Background: I mean ROUGH. Just some basic ideas.

Weaponry/Role: Give some general ideas for weapons. If you want to play a support role, detail how your character would do that. No guns or modern technology! These should be appropriate to your character.

Fighting Style: Just a few rough ideas.

 

.

This is a period piece of ancient Japan, but with a fantasy bend, sorta like Inuyasha. Therefore, there will be swordfights, youkai, and all that fun stuff. I'm not giving out much more publicly; if you would like some more details, PM me.

 

If you are submitting a character, put some thought into it. Nothing half-assed, guys!

Personality: Sarcastic, yet calm. He also can be headstrong.

Rough Background: Born to a poor family he soon left them to learn the art of using a spear, since spears were very uncommon. He often used bamboo spears to practice. He constantly wanders searching for opponents to brawl against, to see which weapon is the best.

Weaponry/Role: Spears, lances. He plays a supportive role, keeping enemies at bay. He wields several spears that he can throw with deadly accuracy or use manually.

Junichiro: I'll incorporate parts of his character into Yuiga to form Sai, just because some parts of him are coincidentally major parts of Kaede. (The scar on the back, for example.) However, I like him.

Yumi: I changed her last name a bit, but otherwise, she's good.

[fenrir]

[Aelsthla-Mental]

*shrugs* sounds interesting, I'll give it a try.

 

Name: 誠法男 (Makoto Norio)

Species: Human

Age: 25

Gender: Male

Appearance: A rather tall individual with faded blue eyes, black hair, wears a rough brown tunic and pants. Walks barefoot, has a small bead necklace with a large hollow bead filled with earth (wonder why...). Has a motley of small scars, but one worth noting running down his neck to his left shoulder.

 

Personality: Rather tactless and rough when speaking, but is pretty much always honest. Dislikes blood but not quite to the point of a phobia. Joins who he feels is right, betrayal he cares little for, if he thinks it is for the right side.

 

Rough Background: He was the son of a Samurai, but never had an affinity with a blade and disliked the blood running down the blade after combat. Left home as soon as it was convenient to follow his own path, to prove himself an honorable and capable man in his own right, and follow his own code.

 

Weaponry/Role: His weapon is a blunt object, perhaps a club or a staff, as he does not like to spill blood. His roll is perhaps a moral compass, and at the same time trying to keep people 'realistic'. As well as telling the truth when needed.

 

Fighting Style: Because his weapon is blunt, he tries to strike with extreme force repeatedly to batter down his opponent and prevent them from going on the offensive. As such his defense is usually quite weak, but he has a habit of using the environment to assist him. Against a demon his style usually has little chance against their (usually) superior strength.

 

Anything I should change?

[bury the year]

@Fallen Hero: Maybe. I'll need to alter the bio, because I do not believe that would be likely.

@Aelsthla-Mental: Maybe. I want a couple more blade-users, though.
