Name: Shanks
Alias: Unabara Garou / Sotoumi no Garou
Age: Unknown, although he looks about 19-20
Race: Hanyou
Class: Swordsman / Pirate (custom)
Allignment: Good
Element: Fire/Wind
Appearance: Crimson red hair, that hangs down a ways past his nose, there are times it is spiked backwards with several strands left loose in the front; or tied back, with the front loose. But usually it just hangs loosely; his eyes are amber. He wears loose black pants and a black tank-top. He also wears a black cuirass over an odd, over-sized white keikogi; the collar is folded neatly over his cuirass. His footwear consists of black, red-lined, iron tipped boots. Along with his black pants he wears a red sash, though only the bottom half is revealed as the top is covered by the bottom of the cuirass. He wears fingerless red gauntlets and shin-gaurds, with silver platings, and black lacings. Both sets of armor have a black maple leaf engraved into them. Over all of this, he usually wears a black cloak with red lacings, it also has a silver pauldron, with a large green gem inserted into it. Strange text is scrawled all over it. He is roughly 5'11" and slim, probably 145-150lbs. His left ear has a silver hoop earring on the lobe, and three golden cuffs along the top. He also has a slim scar running down his left cheek.
Equipment: A long and elegant katana made from silver, by the name of "Hiryu"; it is able to cut through virtually anything, and is nearly indestructable. A bit of cloth is tied about the hilt, tsuba, sheath; as this blade has never been used. He also has two other blades, which were previously cursed. The black sword, "Kurogane" as well as the steel katana, "Zangetsu". He also has his pair of gauntlets and shin-gaurds (which can be summoned at will), "Tenchuu" that are endowed with holy energy, it also improves his speed and power.
Accessories: A pair of red/orange-lensed and steel wire-framed sunglasses. He also wears a red medallion, with the maple leaf engraved into it. In addition, he has a dark navy bandana with a skull overlapping a red maple leaf.
Skills: Ichiken Shinkouhou- unsheath the sword with blinding speed. It cuts through the very air, in order to strike far away enemies.
Tsubasa- he is given the ability of flight.
Hayasa- His speed, is nearly unmatched.
Hikado- He is able to teleport from one place to another. This can also be used to get to a place with a living subject at his destination, making it so that he can follow people.
Santoryu- He is able to wield three swords with incredible skill.
Advanced Healing Factor [Passive]- His healing speed is absurd even for a half-demon, any wound inflicted upon him heals rapidly, and automatically. Regeneration is also possible for him, though the bigger the wound, the more time it takes.
Telepathy- He can read the minds of others.
Telekenesis- Can move objects with his mind.
Mastery of the Arts- He has mastered martial arts, his hand-to-hand combat is nearly unrivalled. He also excels in the use of other weapons, most notably pole-arms.
Pyrokenesis- The ability to create, and manipulate fire.
Gale- he is able to influence the wind, but if they are extremely strong, there is little he can do.
Spells: Hidama- a more powerful form of an energy dan.
Devil Trigger- This opens awakens his full power, enhancing his spells and physical capabilities by 10x, at maximum casting. He can cast this spell Level 1-9.
Ryuujin- A powerful blast of light violet dragons bursts out from the user's hand, which home into their target; it can be charged to release a single, huge dark violet dragon.
Hihashi- the user's blade(s) is set aflame, engulfed by fire. This can also be used to shoot archs of fire that run along the ground.
Awakening- This has not yet occured.
Glass shield- an invisible barrier formed around the user, and whatever else he may decide to protect. It provides excellent defense, though lets off electric sparks upon impact.
Ultimate(s): Tenma Shouryu Sen- A blast formed between a single palm. The ball is formed waist high, then released, with the other hand used to brace the impact. This technique is completely original, created by Shanks. In theory, a two-handed version of this attack is too dangerous and has not been attempted. This absurdly powerful technique can also be preformed with a sword, but with varying effects.
Tatsumaki- Another original attack. A twister forms around Shanks, and which erupts into a fire storm; and from it comes an extremely powerful dragon made of fire, fueled by the twisting winds. He has complete control over the dragon.
History: Much of Shanks' past is shrouded in mystery. Hundreds of years ago, about 357 SR, Shanks was contained within the confines of the Mafuba of a great demon hunter. This hunter later began a legendary bloodline whose sole purpose was to continue that work, thus the DeLuce legacy was formed.
Hundreds of years later, a young woman, Azure DeLuce, released him by accident. Upon his release, he was binded to her, and was in her service until death. For a little over a year, the two spent a very large amount of time with one another. During the time they spent with each other, they grew very close. She changed the way he saw many things.
Unfortunately, not all things last. She had passed on during the Kyou Senshi Massacre; and he was truly free once more. Her death left a scar, although he never searched for the Kyou Senshi, he did keep a constant ear open for any sign of him; and any news of unlikely survivors of the massacre.
Weakness: Elemental- Water/Ice
Handicap- He has an unnatural ability to get lost even in small spaces. In otherwords, a horrible sense of direction.
Personality: Never afraid to kill or steal, but won't hesitate to come to the aid of the helpless. Shanks is easy going, laid back, and on good terms with most of the people he knows. He easily makes friends and in many instances he honors the pirate code and the seas. Shanks himself, is very dangerous if you piss him off. It's unlikely that you'll ever see the light of day, if you ever manage to actually make him mad. He is extremely powerful and will stop at nothing to reach his goals. He isn't afraid of dying, always living for the moment; and yet he'll never throw his life away, but never afraid to lay it on the line.
Ally(ies):
Unknown.
Enemy(ies):
Unknown.
Extras: Shanks hasn't really been out at sea much recently, or on a ship for that matter, since his initial release from the mafuba jar.
Although Shanks is a half-demon, there is something else to him that gives him abilities that most half-demons, or even demons for that matter, don't have. Whatever it is, is unknown.
Shanks is also able to ignite fire underwater, although he must pour a small, but steady stream of ki into it at all times.
