Tengu
What is a Tengu?.......Well, I’m glad you asked, A Tengu is a winged demon, or so they say. Yet, unlike other demons; the tengu
are far more concerned with causing mischief, rather than murder, hate, or blood shed (yet, it does happen. And when it does the Tengu
Hardly concern ourselves with the clean up, unless the clean up can somehow create more chaos later.) Now the tengu are believed to come from
Japan, and the majority were in the days of old; BUT, since the Japanese caught on to our presence they started raising statues in our images
So many fled due to safety (Tengu have many vendettas and adversaries (competing to prey on the "NORMAL" people...if there is such a thing.)like the Lupine, Hunters, changelings, warlocks, witches and Vampires).
So a few millennia later we (and unfortunately much of our opposition/competition) have evolved, to appear as a normal everyday person.
Though we possess certain gifts that most others don’t. The elders among us can still unfold their wings at their will (though I hear it hurts like hell), much like the
way the Garau/Lupine can at will change their form. I can really only iterate on the gifts that I possess and that of the few others I chose to associate with (on rare occasion).
We apparently all have a heightened ability to mimic the powers and traits of others. Now some of our adversaries also possess this, yet not to the inherit strength
that we have. This can always come in handy to learn ..... well ... just about anything. The ability to lower the actual weight of our body. Not visibly but on a molecular level (I guess......What, you think I'm some kinda scientist or something?!)
We also have a higher lung capacity, which is better for under water swimming (I believe that this ability comes from the days of old and the future of being able to sore at great heights).
Charisma; we have an uncanny amount of it kinda like peter piper(he's a suspected Tengu by the way, and we're still looking for the actual guy). we can generally win over most that we talk with.
though this ability does not work well against warlocks, witches or what’s left of the Elves. but will most of the time work against the arrogance of the vampire "kingdom". We contain the physical agility of a ...um...well.. a really jumpy jumpy like thing >:)
We all have a very extreme equilibrium, which lets us take the advantage in fights. The claws , most of us can grow our finger nails well, while being stronger than ordinary. While our toe nails may be longer they are generally in rougher shape. We also have a limited
telepathic suggestion ability, which allows us to lure or lead people, this works well against the animalistic curiosity of the werewolf a.k.a lupine a.k.a Garau. Also tricks most changelings too. Again this also cannot trick the elves or witches; and I would not
try using it on hunters either (you may just be giving your position away and biting off more than you can chew).
Most of us have the ability to recall the lives and events we have lived in the past.
We all prefer higher places, and night air in our feathers. generally some form of anarchistic attire as well such as a punk, Goth or candy Raver look.
but usually we don’t really care too much about our appearance to others, yet we realize that we must to survive it must be endured.
One of us was also documented as the first worshiped god Cronos they started to believe that the crows would take the souls to heaven and erected tombs on very high stilts (and our guys were fed FAT back then). and we still search for the scrolls of cronos(but just for documentations sake, so the world may some day remember us as
our numbers dwindle.
Also we are often confused with angels seen pulling people out of burning buildings and up from watery depths and blah, blah, blah, the list goes on and on, yet the people don’t seem to realize that it was in most cases our meddling that landed them in such a catastrophe. It amazes me that they never seemed to figure
out why we had that "warm" smile on our faces. Though the truth of the matter is we were probably laughing at them, or at the successions of our plans to fuck up their day :)
