PERSONALITY
-
description:
❂ is very sentimental and tries to keep every letter & gift that he receives. the accessories that he wears were made by seiji, mika, jiro, and one of his youngest siblings from the orphanage.
❂ he'll tell you when you're making an idiotic/bad decision but won't actively stop you unless you're about to get yourself killed. even then, it takes him a second to get moving bc he's like "again??" gkjfdgn
❂ his impatience and annoyance usually end up fading to reluctant resign. it's taken him a long time to get to this point and used to be much more aggressive. isla has helped him with becoming approachable but it's still a work in progressthis doesn't mean that he won't fuck you up if you test him enough though.
❂ very picky about who he shows his emotions to and typically wears a neutral expression. one telltale sign of him being annoyed is when he digs his nails into his palms, and i wouldn't recommend pushing him farther once you see this.
❂ cynical and bitter about the things that happened to him in his past. if there was a prize for who could hold a grudge the longest, he would win it.
❂ always on edge? like he expects something bad to happen at any moment (to be fair, he's not being completely unrealistic). it's honestly kind of exhausting for him and he doesn't enjoy being this way
❂ sticks to himself most of the time but once he gets attached to someone he hangs around them a lot. trying to get him to socialize with someone he doesn't know is like trying to bathe a stray cat - you literally have to drag him over as he tries to make up every excuse possible and then keep him from dipping away.
❂ it takes a lot of coaxing to come out but his childish, fun loving self is still in there. there are very few people that actually see glimpses of this.
❂ he's quite observant and is usually able detect people’s moods/temperament from their body language, gestures and expressions. though, this also means that’s he’s almost always on high alert and can be sensitive to slight differences in people’s behavior
❂ has the habit of overthinking everything.
❂ too blunt for his own good and can hurt people without realizing at first (this is not to say that he is a mean person, he just forgets to watch what he says and is always apologetic afterward). he doesn't do well with trying to comfort others in emotional situations bc he can't even handle his own moods.
❂ if he doesn't want to do something or go somewhere, you're not going to be able to convince him (hence needing to drag/carry him places when he refuses)
❂ will do whatever it takes to survive and is able to adapt to most situations that come his way. he has learned to base his decisions on logic instead of emotion and can be seen as heartless sometimes because of this (which is entirely not the case. he does have a good heart, you just need a flamethrower and fourteen gallons of acid to get through the walls he's built around it).
❂ jaded™
❂ on missions, he is efficient as possible and prefers to get in & out of the situation quicklythat way, there's no extra time for people to die.
❂ he can be really gentle when the situation calls for it. he might not know how to console people with his words, but he thinks just sitting with a person and hugging them when they need it goes a long way.
❂ if you even look at the few people he cares about the wrong way, he will call you out.he used to get into fights over it but now he,,, barely,, restrains himself.sato is extremely protective of his loved ones and
❂ has mastered sarcasm to the point that no one can tell whether he means what he says or not
❂ has a major soft spot for children even though he won't admit it. he would be an amazing dad
mental disabilities: ptsd, mild anxiety, insomnia, and depression -
BREATH STYLE
-
style: hinokami kagura, otherwise known as the dance of the fire god. sun breathing is a style of swordsmanship utilized by the first demon slayer to use "breaths", yoriichi tsugikuni, and serves as the basis for other breathing styles derived from it as a result of yoriichi changing the breathing techniques to suit the individuals he taught. the sun breathing combat style seemingly mimics the burning effect of sunlight on demons and replicates it with the users special swordsmanship and movements.
first form: flash dance ~ the user utilizes a similar method like the thunderclap and flash technique of thunder breathing, allowing them to use an advanced version of dance by inhaling huge amounts of oxygen, increasing the pumping of blood through the entire body, focusing it on the legs, and releasing it all to assault the target with a slash.
second form: clear blue sky ~ the user spins their body vertically to create a 360-degree slash.
third form: raging sun ~ the user unleashes two horizontal slashes to hit or intercept an enemy from the front or side.
fourth form: fake rainbow ~ the user utilizes this technique to evade incoming attacks with high-speed twists and rotations, thus creating afterimages. the afterimages work most effectively on enemies with good vision as they will probably fail attack the afterimage instead of the actual body of the user.
fifth form: fire wheel ~ the user leaps behind the opponent and spins in the air while releasing a flaming attack in a circular motion.
sixth form: burning bones, summer sun ~ a circular slash that defends from imminent frontal attacks.
seventh form: sunflower thrust ~ a single thrust attack with the point of the blade.
eighth form: solar heat haze ~ the user charges towards the target, attacking it with a haze covered slash that seemingly fails to land, but actually does hit the target.
ninth form: setting sun transformation ~ the user flips into the air to deliver an upended flaming sword slash.
tenth form: beneficent radiance ~ the user spirals into the air to deliver a powerful slash to those caught in it.
eleventh form: dragon sun halo head dance ~ resembling a dragon, the user moves in circles to avoid enemy attacks and slashes then multiple times at the target.
twelfth form: flame dance ~ a two-combo strike which starts with a vertical slash and then a horizontal one right after.
thirteenth form: the user continuously performs all twelve forms of the breathing style in repetitive succession to increase the accuracy and agility of his movements while reducing fatigue.
weapon: his prosthetics are equipped with weaponry, most notably nichirin blades mounted inside of the forearms which can be taken off for combat. he also uses a bow with arrows that are coated in wisteria poison.
notable abilities: sato had a heightened sense of smell even before he underwent sword training. it is strong enough for him to smell the 'line of interval'—the slight pause in an enemy's movement which allows him an opening in which to strike—and distinguish between species, as well as their approximate position. after training this skill during his time with vincent, sato acquired the ability to smell emotions as well as track objects, humans and demons over long distances. -
MISC

history:
❂ as a child, sato's life was seemingly perfect. he grew up in an orphanage with around 40 other kids, and despite always wanting to know who his real parents were, he held onto hope that another family would want him one day. they were sheltered from the world around them by their caretaker and went about their days blissfully ignorant about the demons that lurked beyond the fences of their playground.
❂ though, over the years, more and more things started to not line up in sato's mind. he began to silently question the inconsistencies and wondered what truly lied beyond their walls, but nothing ever fully clicked until him and minori unintentionally discovered their caretaker's actual demonic identity (gg asuka ). they were mortified when they caught glimpses of their siblings running for their lives. they didn't waste time in hurrying back to the orphanage while they still could.
❂ after that, sato and minori promised to escape together with some of the other kids when the time came. little did they know, their plan was doomed from the start. they were misled to believe that just any weapon could kill asuka and didn't understand her true power or weaknesses.
❂ sato was 15 when their 'adoption ceremony,' or rather asuka's next hunt, was held. thirteen other kids, including minori, were brought out to the forest with him. when asuka gave them their 'weapons,' they split off into four groups - each with a teenager at its head.
❂ according to the plan, sato's group was in charge of setting traps during their headstart and distracting asuka when she finally came after them.
❂ by the end of the night, sato and minori were the only two left out of all the children who had been involved in the escape plan. in a last desperate attempt to take their lives, asuka lunged at them. she managed to tear off sato's arms before she was forced to abandon them in fear of being disintegrated by the sun.
❂ minori did the best she could to staunch the blood flow and get them further away from the massacre site, but she could only go so far due to being wounded herself. sato tried to stay awak for as long as possible, but eventually succumbed to his exhaustion.
❂ a lone demon slayer named vincent hara found them soon after and treated them back at his home. the infections that had been brewing in sato's wounds improved with the proper care, and he finally woke up days later. he was scared and wary of the man at first, but wasn't exactly in a position to reject his help after what they had been through.
❂ sato and minori learned more about the reality of the world that they were living in during the year that they were with vincent. he treated them like his own children, but also protected them from the darker secrets of his old life. it took about two months for sato’s arms to heal enough to get prosthetics and start physical therapy with isla. the process was difficult for him both mentally and physically due to his frustrations about losing his limbs running high. his self esteem fluctuated during this time and his fear of becoming worthless again grew despite his progress.
❂ their time with vincent was abruptly cut short when his past caught up to him. when his father figure was killed, sato’s thought process became clouded by his grief. he acted purely out of anger and left minori quietly during the night to track down the perpetrators. he cruelly took their lives one by one.
❂ he kept a low profile for a while with minori and moved from the area with her. they participated in the final selection together not long afterward. he did whatever he could to protect her during the brutal exam, making sure that they survived no matter what the cost was. only a couple of other people made it out with them by the end of the seven days.
❂ over a multitude of missions, satoshi grew close with some of other examinees who passed the final selection with him. their names were seiji, mika, and jiro.
❂ six months after he joined the corps, the four of them were ambushed by a previous lower demon moon on what was supposed to be a typical mission. only sato and seiji were brought back to rose mansion alive, but the other boy unfortunately passed while receiving emergency medical attention. sato received the news of his friends’ deaths not long after he woke up, and slowly descended into a spiral. he became more and more reliant on the breakthrough pills he was given for pain though never realized how bad it was actually getting. his misuse continued for a year before he needed to take time off from the corps in order to get help. sato only just recently returned to his work.
