Name: Enkou Seizon
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Race: Youkai - fire
Height: 5'11''
Eye Color: A brilliant green most of the time, but when angered
anyone looking into Enkou's eyes catches a glimpse of a raging inferno, a vortex of flame hidden deep within his skull.
Hair Color: Black, but it doesn't really matter.
Hair Style: Shaved head. Enkou got tired of his hair igniting when he slept so he cut it all off. He likes the shape of his skull anyway.
Clothing: Enkou will generally wear the fitted trousers of a peasant and simple black kimono shirt. His clothing is always getting burnt so he doesn't see the need for expensive clothes.
Build: Enkou could be described as wiry. There is hardly a scrap of fat on him and what is there is lean muscle. Saying that he is not built on a particularly large scale, making him not the strongest of men. He makes up for it by being extremely dextrous and fluid in his movements. His skin is tanned and slightly prematurely wrinkled by all his time spent in heat and sunlight.
Personality: Enkou's moods are as changeable and intense as the element he embodies and his rapid changes of emotion have caused him to mouth off and get into trouble before.
Weapons: A pair of katar he was given by a traveller from India in exchange for getting him over the middle kingdom's border and into Japan.
Rank: General fixer and smuggler. Lives in Gidan but travels comprehensively in and outside of Japan.
History: Enkou's parents were traditional elementals, told him to keep away from humans and avoid there influence. Probably not the best thing to tell a young fire youkai as at the first chance he got Enkou left his birthplace and travelled to the city. Soon he was working in the local thieves guild, using his natural dexterity to cut purses and open closed doors. Before long his nature caused him to grow tired of his illicit trade and he decided to begin travelling again. One thing lead to another and he became a consumate smuggler. He gained a reputation as being able to get anything you wanted in or out of anywhere, even if it didn't technically belong to you in the first place. Eventually he arrived back in Gidan and technically has been living there ever since even if most of the time he is away.
Special Attacks: As well as competently using his katar Enkou has two other abilities for the time being.
Fumes of the pit: Thick, foul black smoke erupts out of Enkou's mouth and fills the surrounding area. The smoke usefully hides him from view and causes most people to go into a coughing fit, giving him a chance to make an escape.
Lifeblood aflame: This ability Enkou will only use on the rarest of occasions. If he concentrates on a single being their blood will begin to heat exponentially until either they flee or die as their blood literally boils.
If he choses to affect an area the heating is more mild, there is no chance of death or even permanent damage but the pain is still excruciating making it very hard to remain near Enkou, this ability is more defensive than offensive.
Important Notes:
When in a hurry Enkou can avoid being slowed by the contours of the land eg. valleys, rivers etc. He will simply keep running or walking and step onto thin air, leaving a path of flaming footprints in the air behind him.
Enkou is immune to the effects of fire but dislikes water in the extreme and has no need to consume liquids and will not unless they are flammable. If he is totally submerged in water it takes a huge force of will for him to stay concious or in his material form.
Enkou can not enter his spiritual form by choice yet and must wait a long time before he can become material again if he is forced into it.
((Tell me if there is anything I need to change. I thought the attack thing would be alright as only one of them can actually hurt people, but tell me and I'll change it if I have to.))
