Weight: 135lbs
DOB: 4/5/ 1903
Blood Type: O
Motto: "Listen to the wind, it knows more then I do!"
Favourite Colour: Black
Favourite Food: Chocolate!
Nationality: Born in America, lived in Tokyo.
Physical Appearance: Tall, lean, strong build. He has a tattoo of a
black and sliver dragon on his upper left forearm, one piercing in his left
ear. His dark red hair it looks windblown and in disarray, it's the way he
likes it, and tends to fall in his eyes a lot.
Appearance: Normally, black leather pants, boots, a light white shirt
and a dark, black, leather trench coat. Or...he wears a white T-shirt under a
brown leather Jacket and blue Jeans. Or Grey baggy pants and a no-sleeved
Chinese top with a picture of a tiger in snow on the front, with a scarf like sash
wrapped around his waist like a belt. He has a rune stone pendant: Teiwaz: The
Spiritual Warrior.
Details/Personality: He is kind and caring, but dangerous when crossed.
Is a very strange individual. He seems to be slightly crazy. No one is sure if
this is true insanity, or a game he likes to play. Shuichi tends to be
something of a flirt, he does this with both sexes, even if they are
straight...he doesn't care! He loves to play with peoples minds.
Skills - Learnt when he was alive: Shuichi is a pretty good sprinter, as
well as a pretty good hand to hand fighter. He tells people he learnt such
things to make him look cool, but he actually likes the discipline and the
theory behind such things as martial arts. The fluidity of some of the moves
astound and entice him.
Quirks: He also has a thing for plants and animals, the tides and the
sea, the wind...and a slight thing for Oak trees.
History: Ahhh...not much to tell! His dad
was a bastard, would beat his mother. And in the end his mother killed his father,
and then killed herself. This should have affected Shuichi much more than it
did, but he has just got on with it and tried to put the past behind him. He is
not ruled by his past, he refused to allow that.
What happened to him after that is pretty much a mystery. And one he is
unwilling to reveal to strangers!
But, suffice to say, he was killed. It's pretty much a mystery of why this boy
died when he did. One day he was healthy, the next he was gone.
And to be honest, Shuichi didn't mind, he had no real ties to Life, but he did
care a lot for the human race. I loved the planet, and loved to walk along it's
paths and marvel at the plants and trees.
That was what made him become a Shinigami, the love of the Human world, and the
need to protect that which he cared for.
Likes: Hmm...chocolate. I likes sweet things. REALLY likes sweet
things. And Shu on a sugar rush is a thing to behold...
Wind and the rain, he hates the heat with a passion, and loves to walk outside
on windy nights, or lay in bed and listen to a storm blowing outside his
window.
He likes to listen to music, everything he does is accompanied by music, be it
the kind you can hear (from a radio, CD player or whatnot) or the music
in his head.
Shu is a speed freak, he LOVES to go fast. Driving,
running...other...it's aaaaaall good!!
He has a few obsessions, one being his love of reading, but that's kinda a
secret that very few know about. The second is anime. He loves it to bits. So
much so, that it's his staple diet and the only thing he watches. TV has kinda
lost it's appeal to him now.
Dislikes: Vegetables (But he will eat raw carrots!), having to
get up before noon. He likes to lay-in...I mean, who doesn't? People who don't
understand his fine sense of humor and intellect. :-D
And the heat. He hates the heat. If he could have his way, he would shoot the
sun down out of the sky and dance upon it's mangled remains as the snow fell
down around him.
Shinikami:
Name: Hyouga.
Type: Ice and Wind.
Master: Shuichi.
His Human form is that of a tall and elegant young man. Long slivery hair falls
down to his waist in soft waves, which have a bluish tint to them. He has large
violet eyes that seem to glow with an unearthly light, surrounded by thick dark
lashes.
He's usually found wearing soft, white leather. Pants, top, and a very long
coat, all in the same material. He never wears shoes, and he has two white
bands around his wrists, and a narrow white collar around his neck with an
amethyst embedded in the center of it.
Hyouga is a smart creature. Calm and collected. He has a protective personality
that he had cultivated over the years. Meaning, he's a pretty ancient God, and
sees most of the other Shikigami and Shinigami as children to be protected. He
has a twisted sense of humor, and has some...curious qualities that only come
out to those he knows and trusts.
His True form is that of a Dragon. He is white with blue tints, and amazing
sliver and white wings. He is small for his species, but that is by design, as
he is a Warrior, and a Fighter. Being small makes him lighter, faster, more
nimble.
Nickname: Heh, it's hard to make a nickname from Ryu and though he'd accept
such a term of endearment as Ryu-chan, he'd only do so with some feigned
annoyance. There were several names his lover once called him, all of which he
knows he couldn't bear to hear from anyone else.
Age: If he was still alive his 20th birthday wouldn't be far off
Gender: Male
D.O.B.: October 17, 1983
D.O.D.: September 1, 2003... Obviously, he's new
Height: 6'
Weight: 125lbs
Hair: Waist length, wavy crimson
Eyes: Deep sapphire blue
Motto: "All you need is love" ~ Beatles
Favourite Colour: Green
Favourite Food: Although it isn't much... plain white rice. He could eat
bowl after bowl and still never have enough
Nationality: Japanese, his previous home having resided in Tokyo
Physical Appearance: Rather broad, muscular shoulders and chest tapering
to a slim waist and long thin legs, it's obvious that he's done his fair share
of martial arts training. The dark tan of his skin implies that he's spent an
equal amount of time outside. His hair is often left unleashed and free to fall
about him in seemingly endless waves, the ends naturally curling to almost
complete spirals.
Appearance: Not one to care about fashions or trends in any way, Ryu
wears whatever it is he feels like wearing. More often than not, he finds
himself pulling on a very casual outfit consisting of a half buttoned shirt,
nothing underneath and the pesky sleeves folded up to just below his elbows,
and somewhat form fitting jeans that fall over ankle high black boots.
Details/Personality: It wouldn't be too far from the truth to call him a
bit of a playboy. However, what most people don't see... perhaps what he
doesn't let them see... is that there's much more to him than simply that.
There are reasons and emotions he wishes to keep hidden from everyone,
including himself. Often sarcastic, bold, outspoken, and a little wild, he does
well to keep people at a reasonable distance. Even the ones he allows are only
close for a very brief period. Nevertheless, there are moments when he realizes
that closeness is all he really wants, but fears more than anything at the same
time.
Skills - Learnt when he was alive: Having participated in kendo/iaido,
karate, kyudo, jeet kune do and basically any martial art he came across,
regardless of what his schedule should be, he's well trained, both by instructors,
but mostly self-taught, in all these areas. His weapon of choice would
definitely be a katana. Nevertheless, he isn't all brawn. Even if very few know
of his hidden talents, he's as skilled in painting, drafting and calligraphy as
he is in fighting.
Quirks: His playboy habits, sarcasm and attitude... Then there's that
inexplicable love of rice... Ryu also has a habit of pulling on gathered
sections of his hair or twisting the strands around his fingers when he's
bored, tired, nervous, or contemplative. It could also be said that, in
general, he has a bit of a hair fetish.
History/BIO: Ryu's mother died when he was seven. Even afterward, his
father continued to be rather neglectful, even if only unintentionally. As a
result, Ryu was free to pursue just about anything he pleased. He was rarely
home, and, if it wasn't for the teams he took part in, he would've skipped
school even more often than he did.
As for how he died, that's something he never plans on speaking of. It was
certainly far before his actual time to die, however there seem to be moments
when strong emotions and the desperate need to protect what you love most can
manage to sever and alter even the bonds of fate. Aside from everything else,
what he can't manage to hide very well is the immediate interest he has in the
blonde boy known as Laine. Letting whatever attention he gives come across as
part of his playboy act, if not merely overly friendly, he knows that the boy
reminds him of things he wishes to keep in the farthest recesses of his memory.

Hair Colour: Chocolate brown.
Eye Colour: A warm, deep blue.
Bio:
Asaka
grew up in a seemingly normal family, the single child. His mother, a
traditional Japanese full-time housewife, was most of what he remembered
of his childhood - his father was an infrequent visitor due to his
work, which provided amply for the family, enough to get Asaka into a good
school.
At the
age of 14, during the slow change from Autumn to Winter, Asaka took a different
route home from school and saw a man dash past him out of an alley, his eyes
wild in fear, a fear that was highly justified since his next and last action
in life was a single, choking gurgle and an ungainly fall. Hurrying
quickly to the man's side, Asaka noticed a throwing dagger sticking out from
the man's back, still quivering from flight.
Steps behind him alerted him to an approaching presence, and he whirled around to see his father, the gentle smile still on his face, but his hand tossing a similar dagger into the air, then catching it as it tumbled back down. Apparently Asaka's father worked in the modern version of one of the unnamed pre-Meiji era assassin sects, now loyal to a party of the government, whose trademark were the quick, swift kill and the professional regard for not hurting more than was necessary.
Asaka was
taken out from school quietly, though his mother was not notified, and
believed, from the easily forged reports and occasional phonecalls, that her
son was still going on quite well in mathematics and geography, while he was
actually beginning his training in the assassin sect. Its rigorous
training produced a change in him that turned him into an efficient killer who
could not distinguish the value between life and the inanimate. By never
hesitating, and having discovered an innate, predatory aptitude for the hunt,
Asaka quickly became one of the better assassins, adept with shuriken,
double-kodachi and dagger.
On the
2nd of June, 2002, Asaka's father supposedly stole documents from the sect, and
disappeared. Asaka was one of five assassins assigned to track him
down. Eventually, in somewhat confused circumstances, he ended up killing
the other four assassins, his father, and his mother as well... and received a
fatal stab in the back by some unknown assailant.
Asaka
knows that he is in Meifu as a Shinigami to learn something... perhaps the name
of his own killer, or perhaps why some part of him - his inner youth? - seems
to be screaming...
Personality:
Asaka appears
to be serene and politely friendly - always wearing a slight smile on his
face. However, he is usually cold and ruthless, especially when closing
in on a kill, or on anyone he perceives is in his path. Asaka is prone to
a certain degree of amused cynicism, arrogance, and over-confidence in his own
abilities. Since he has no regard for most other people, he is normally
brutally frank in his words, if he speaks at all - he prefers to read, sketch
or listen to classical music instead of socialising.
Appearance:
Asaka has
delicate, nearly ethereal-looking features, with small, slanted,
cold eyes, thin eyebrows, and a sensuous mouth normally curved in a smile
or a smirk. His hair is kept relatively short, so as not to obscure his
vision, and his skin is pale from too much time spent in the shadows, his frame
long, lean, and marred by the occasional scar. He likes to wear fitting
clothing of dull colors (not black), comfortable boots with hidden blades, and
fingerless gloves.
Likes:
Pretty
boys, bladed weapons, poetry, classical music (baroque and romantic).
Dislikes:
Disorderly
things, firearms, rock music, stupid people, little children.
Weapon
of choice:
Throwing
knives, shuriken, katana. Asaka has a small opinion of magic, and prefers
to rely on his almost supernatural speed, stealth and blade work.

office, classes donned, reading or typing his own discoveries on his computer
or laptop. Many misinterpret him as being extremely boring but he has a
strange appreciation for abstract art and collects oddities from around the
world. Often frightening statues of worshipped gods or metallic pieces of
collaborated "junk". He can only seem to describe sex in terms
of biology and lacks any social grace to deal with emotions or feelings.
