Working on a CS right now, I was wondering what the difference between abilities and powers is?
I as well have the same question.
 
Working on a CS right now, I was wondering what the difference between abilities and powers is?

Abilities: [what are some of your abilities? For demons this should also include your racial resistances or racial traits]

Racial Traits or Abilities that are bestowed upon you because of spirit energy. For humans that is like their spirit energy allows them to sense other demons around, read auras, or heal wounds quicker than they ordinarily would 3 months turns to 1 month.

Powers: [give us a good range of 3 to 4 powers. They must have weaknesses and limitations. And powers are not infinite, you will get exhausted depending on the energy you exert]

Things you do with your spirit energy. Like throwing fireballs, or rays of energy. Or in this case healing capabilities.

Name:
Akkorokamui, but most people call him Aki.

Age:
About 160 years old, he's lost count of his exact age though. Aki does not act his age.

Gender:
Male.

Brief Summary:
Aki has been working as a spirit detective for about 80 years, give or take a decade. While Aki originally terrorised the sea, he learnt that there was a lot more to be gained by peacefully coexisting with humans rather than tormenting them, leading to an end of his bloodthirsty reign. When the Spirit Recovery Agency offered him a job, seemingly impressed by his healing abilities, he gladly accepted. While he doesn't like all the Agency's rules, the job offers thrilling adventures to satisfy his need for stimulation and money to fuel whatever he's addicted to this decade.

Despite Aki's experience the agency keeps a close eye on him, and he's made to have weekly meetings with a supervisor. This is because Aki's addictions and his impulsive nature can make him a liability at times, and have almost gotten him fired upon occasion. While this irritates Aki, he's glad that the agency gives him a fair amount leeway in regards to his 'habits'.

Aki's role tends to be one as a tank or supportive role. He has some offensive capacity when necessary, but it's unlikely to ever win a fight.

Demon Class:
While his healing abilities are A-class, his other abilities are closer to B- or C-class. This averages to a B-class ranking.

Demon Type:
Aki is a octopus-demon who once terrorised fishermen, but now aims to help humans. Originally he would attack and eat fishermen for sustenance, but these days sticks to a marine-life only diet. Most of Aki's time is spent in the human world, but he does have a home in one of the demon world's oceans. [Might add more to this at some point]

Appearance:
Thankfully he looks a lot younger than 160.

Personality Strengths:
Extroverted - Aki is bursting with confidence, almost to the point of narcissism. He rarely experiences self-doubt or insecurity, perhaps because after 160 years he's learnt to love himself; or perhaps just because he's a git who doesn't care about the consequences of his actions. Regardless, Aki has unwavering self-assurance. Aki is also happiest when interacting with others, so you'll rarely see him quiet or alone. In spite of apathetic side Aki is incredibly friendly, and almost charming.
Energetic - Aki's supervisor swears that Aki is physically incapable of sitting still, and wonders if Aki even knows what 'sleep' is. As much as this annoys his supervisor, it does mean that Aki has boundless energy to put into missions. You can call on Aki whenever you like, and you can rely on him to be full of vigour ready for whatever comes his way.
Inquisitive - Aki is welcoming of new ideas, open to having his opinions changed and to trying novel activities. It doesn't matter if something is unconventional, Aki will give it a fair chance. Aki is also curious about the world around him, thus he enjoys discovering new places and exploring various domains of knowledge. Aki is particularly interested in new technology, and you can expect him to own the latest gadgets.

Personality Flaws:
Addictive Personality - Aki currently has particular issues with stimulant drugs and sex, but has been addicted to several other substances/activities over the course of his life. The side effects of his addictions can be unpredictable due to his demonic physiology. However, Aki is fairly certain he won't die or suffer from any long-term physical harm thanks to his poison resistance and healing abilities; he's more than susceptible to long-term mental harm though.
Apathetic - Aki finds it difficult to relate to the harm of others, owing to the fact he's used to being able to heal whatever physical harm comes his way. He also struggles to empathise with other people's emotional struggles, due to his reliance on addictive substances/behaviours to ease his anxieties. So Aki isn't the best shoulder (or tentacle) to cry on, since he won't be able to sympathise with your pain well. This lack of emotional understanding links to Aki's poor risk perception: he's awful at considering how his actions may cause his team harm.
Impulsive - Aki will make decisions in the moment, without thinking twice about the consequences of his actions. The only reason he hasn't gotten himself killed yet is because of regenerative abilities; or perhaps it's because of his regenerative abilities that Aki is so careless about putting himself in harm's way. Whatever the case, Aki is not the guy to go to when you need to carefully consider your options.

Abilities:
Poison Resistance - Resistant/immune to toxic substances. This is Aki's racial resistance. Much to his supervisor's annoyance, this means Aki as a far greater tolerance for drugs than any normal person.
Underwater Breathing - Can breath underwater. Pretty straightforward, isn't much more to say here.
Tentacles- Aki has eight tentacles, which he can use to hold objects, constrict opponents, or propel himself underwater. They can extend up to 5 metres long, but his usually keeps them under a metre long.
Malleable Anatomy - Aki can compress and twist his anatomy into various shapes and densities. Aki doesn't really like doing this though, so he rarely uses this ability with any body part other than his tentacles.

Skills:
Dancing - Being the kinda guy who goes to parties, Aki has become a competent dancer over the years.
Parkour - What better hobby for an adrenaline junkie who can't sit still? Aki's parkour skills have helped hone Aki's agility and balance.
Deception - Aki can tell a lie without blinking, and is used to coming up with convincing cover stories for his illicit activities.
IT - Aki is proficient with computers, having a surprisingly large understanding of how computers work and how to fix various technological issues.

Powers:
Regenerative Healing - Aki can regenerate lost/damaged tissues and heal physical wounds. He's particularly good at limb regeneration. While Aki is capable of healing other people, he is less efficient at it. Obviously Aki cannot regenerate wounds infinitely, but this is his strongest ability
Poison Curing - Can cure others of poisonous substances. Has some capacity to cure diseases too, but to a far lesser extent.
Poison Projection - Can create poisonous projectiles, which typically take an ink-like appearance. The properties of the poison can vary: they can be corrosive, induce paralysis, or just be mildly irritating.

Weapon:
Tentacle Whip - Aki adjusts the shape and rigidity of one of his tentacles so that it's appropriate to be used as a whip. However it's worth noting Aki typically doesn't use a weapon at all while on missions with others, due to his role as a tank/support. He's far more likely to use his tentacles to restrict an opponent's movement so someone else can attack them, rather than attack an opponent directly.

Equipment:
Aki doesn't tend to carry anything, except maybe his wallet and keys. Any drugs or alcohol he buys is almost immediately consumed so cannot be carried around. There's nothing else that is worrying carrying around to Aki, except money.

Give me Something Sad:
Aki has no genitalia in tentacle form.
Aki doesn't think he has a family: if he does, he sure as hell doesn't know 'em. He's not even sure how he was born, as his first few years of life are long forgotten. This lack of family might explain a few of Aki's behavioural issues...

Give me Something Funny:
Aki once featured in a hentai for extra cash
Aki didn't learn to read until he was 90, and even then it took him a few decades to become truly competent at it.

Personal History Highlights:
Back in his youthful days Aki enjoyed a diet of fishermen. He caused such havoc that someone attempted to kill him with poison, but Aki ended up just being resistant to the poison. A few decades later Aki reformed, realising there was a lot more to be gained from living with humans peacefully: you can actually talk to them, and they give you alcohol! Since then Aki has used his powers to benefit humans, rather than to slaughter them. The inciting incident of Aki's reformation is currently unknown to all but him though.
When Aki was roughly 80 when he was scouted by the Spirit Agency for his healing abilities. During one of his first missions Aki decided it'd be a good idea to directly attack the demons they were tracking, blowing everyone's cover and leading to a fight which blew up a building. Nobody died thanks to Aki's curative skills, which is probably the only thing which stop him getting fired. It was around the same time the Ageny discovered Aki had an addiction problem, so the Agency assigned Aki a supervisor to help him with his troublesome behaviour.
During his gambling phase, Aki was lucky enough to win a jackpot of a several thousand dollars. He spent it going on an all out trip with some fellow spirit detectives, where they managed to get themselves banned from several establishments. Aki considers the trip one of his most beloved memories, and is still close the the detectives he took on the trip with him.

Relationships with the current Detectives:
Suzuki Aiko - "My supervisor said I have to be 'responsible' around Suzuki and not 'corrupt' her with my 'bad habits'. She's so fun to tease though!"
Kirah - "My supervisor has warned me several times that when Kirah says he wants to eat me he means it literally, not sexually. I still want to see what he'd look like with something in his mouth..."
Kogura - "Kogura's voice is so alluring, with a perfect body to match... My supervisor says I still can't try to sleep with her because that would be 'unprofessional'. We'll see about that."
Nishimura Chiyo - "That tsundere? She's treats me like a kid even though I'm much older than her! She makes a mean drink though."

Message from Koenma

Case 1: The Missing Mind Ring


Koenma face's appears on your watch screen.

Koenma.jpg

"Detectives, you have a case,"

A ring pops up onto the screen. It has a silver band and what appears to be a ruby designed as decorative brain.

"This is the Mind Ring, it is said whoever wears this ring can control the minds of others. It was placed in a high security vault, but someone has snuck in, killed the guards and took the ring. I need you to go to the Black Market and Demon Underworld's respectively to track down this ring. It could be dangerous in the wrong hands,"

Koenma pauses and looks a bit more serious.

"Furthermore, I would like to add that Aiko will be meeting you at the location marked on your watches with your new member of the team. You will be receiving what you need to know about him shortly, he is your guide in the City of Vices and connection to the Demon Underworld. Good luck."

Koenma's face faded from the screen. And the small wrist watch on your hand with the screen began to make an ugly whirring noise. You weren't really sure how such a small wrist watch could spit out a small piece of paper, but it did. Receiving the fax, it began to glow, and the small piece of paper began to enlarge till it was eligible.

And I am working on my CS right now. But this is the idea for Case 1. Anyone else want to throw in any input go ahead.

  • Strengths:
    Appreciative - Aiko has never been one to look a gift-horse in the mouth. Not only will she gladly accept any gifts, even if it's something she wouldn't be able to make use, she'd likely say thank you about a hundred times.

    Caring - Aiko isn't the type to be mean to anyone, even if they deserve it. She has always been known to be everyone, and do anything she can to help those in need. Her friends say it's annoying at times.

    Honest - She is most literally, incapable of lying. Well, not completely. You'd have to be pretty oblivious to not know though. When she tells a lie, she looks at her feet, plays with her hair, and lowers her voice to a near whisper.

    Sentimental - Emotions are important to Aiko, so much so that she has a stuffed animal for every occasion she has deemed important. Her friends say there are around a hundred or more in her room, not counting those in her closet.


    Flaws:
    Gullible - Tell Aiko there's a unicorn behind her, she'll turn around excitedly looking for it. Mark her with a sharpie while she's not looking, and tell her she's sick, she'll rush to the nurse.

    Fragile - Aiko is said to have little to no emotional defenses. It's easy to get all sorts of reactions from her. Do something lewd to her, her embarrassment will show on her face. This also means it's easy to hurt her feelings, mocking her isn't recommended, even if she might forgive you quickly, she will start bawling, makes you seem like quite the monster in public.

    Submissive - It can be said by many that Aiko doesn't have a will of her own. She seems to have no ambitions, seeking only to please those around her rather than herself. Her friends say this is because of how she was raised, and most of her class get rather upset when people take advantage of her. Note: teenagers actually hit quite hard.

    Possessive - Despite the previous mention of her submissive nature, Aiko has been known to claim things, and people, as hers. She get's upset when these things are taken away. She might not necessarily fight it, but you will be plagued by constant pouting faces every time she see's you if something(or someone) of her is taken away.
  • Usual outfit:
    382cc3233e781910cc06ad38990e54f2.jpg


    Swimsuit(because there's going to be a beach scene >:3):
    507aedaa687d4ebd5d31e4e3e57ab260.jpg
  • Detective time: One year.

    Role: Depending on who you ask, she's either a distraction, or a useful fighter.

    Thoughts on situation: Aiko likes that she's helping people, to her that means she's succeeded in life before even leaving high school. Though she does sometimes find it a pain to do homework AND her detective work.

    Thoughts on other detectives: Aiko views the other detectives as her friends. Whether or not they agree, she doesn't really care. Though, she is a little scared Kirah might try and turn her into a baked pastry.
  • Abilities:
    Aura sight - Aiko has been noted to see the emotional aura's of others. While not the same as a persons true aura, it shows the emotions of others based upon the color and intensity of the aura. Aiko is unsure as to what some colors mean, and isn't able to really use this to it's fullest potential.
    Vanishing Scars - Aiko, since birth has seemed resistant to long term wounds. She doesn't heal any faster than a normal person, but wounds aren't going to scar once healed, and weapons that would usually leave marks like whips, do not.
    Emotional Chains - Aiko's spirit energy is tied to her emotions. At times it can seem like she can't even channel her rapier. Emotions that cause her energy to become locked include despair, rage, and embarrassment. However it should be noted even in a neutral emotional state she still has part of her emotions locked off. Emotions that don't block her energy include that of passion, and other 'good' emotions.

    Powers:
    Spirit Rapier - projecting her spirit energy into that of a blade, specifically that of a rapier, being more of a jabbing/slashing style weapon than the fighting styles of a traditional short sword. The blade is pink, and only around 34 inches, slightly shorter than the average rapier. Aiko can't sustain this for very long, she is training to increase it, but at most she can sustain it for three minutes. The hilt for her rapier comes from her parasol, in the form of the curved handle.

    Spirit Wave - A ranged attack, in which she moves her rapier in a slashing fashion, sending a wave of energy from it. The wave only goes five meters, and each one takes 30 seconds of energy. If she jabs she can compress the size of the wave, increasing it's range by about 2 extra meters.

    Rapier Length - By focusing more or less energy into her blade, she can change it's length, making it more effective in certain scenarios, or less draining on her reserves.


    Weapon: Her weapon is her parasol. Or rather, her parasol has a detachable handle, which she can channel her spirit energy into to form a rapier. Since she almost always carries her parasol, she almost always has her rapier...unless she is out of energy of course.

    Skills:
    Cooking - Ask any of her friends and they'll tell you Aiko is a good cook. Ask any of the males in her class, and they'll tell you she's one of the best cooks in the world, especially if you get to watch her do so. Her mother taught her how to do this, but also taught her that she could only do so while wearing an apron, and nothing else.

    Athleticism - Aiko might not look it, but she's actually quite athletic. She holds an A in her gym classes, and has spent some time as a cheerleader. Though, she isn't an ace in all athletic activities, for example, she can't swim, she more or less either floats, or sinks.

    Singing - This seems to be a skill she possesses in the shower. In public, her skill seems to fade. We asked her to sing a song, and she did so in a whisper. However, we had heard recordings of her singing in the shower rather well, they were videos her mother sent us, but the footage was edited out for obvious reasons.
  • Highlights:
    [spoili]Those who know Aiko well enough, know she did not have the greatest childhood. Her mother had this obsession with her being able to get a boyfriend, and being a 'perfect wife'. To this end, she taught her a few habit's others might see as weird, and whenever Aiko deviated from these lessons she was met with lashings.[/spoili]
    [spoili]During one such lashing, she first produced her spirit weapon. To this day, her mother swears it was simply a hallucination as a result of having been stressed.[/spoili]
    [spoili]Aiko was born on February 14th, which is why her mother named her such.[/spoili]

    Something funny:
    Aiko's first sexual attraction happened during gym, in the locker room when she was fifteen. She noticed her heartbeat accelerate, and found herself awkwardly staring at a classmate as they dressed.

    Something sad:
    Aiko's first pet was a gold fish. She won it at a carnival. She thought she could take it out and play with it and her neighbors dog....Flip the fish was greeted a little too personally by Spot the dog.
  • Equipment:
    Bag, schoolbooks, parasol

Looks good. Here's mine. And the Spirit Recovery Agency's newest member.

Sorry I got an uber inspiration kick.

Kirah_2.png

Theme Song

Age: Roughly 80 - translates roughly to 25 years in human years

Gender: Male

Brief Summary: I just got here. Standing next to a small human that may taste good in a baked food. [Current mood, indifferent and hungry] Koenma's notes; chosen for his fighting skill which I found might be useful to the team he could provide the team some brute strength they might be lacking in some areas. I also chose him due to his connection to the Demon Underworld. He will be a great asset to the team, if you can get past his guarded personality.

Demon Class: *D
*Due to Kirah's class in his weak demon form, his power levels fluctuate depending on his siphon. His weak form fluctuates between D and B as roughly recorded before he broke the scanner.

Demon Type:

Devourer Demon -

They are considered Spirit Realms bottom feeders because of their unique capabilities of absorbing any lingering spiritual energy. They seem to keep the Spiritual Realm purified of too much energy fluctuating the stability of the Spirit Realm. They seem to also keep the level of negative and positive emotions at a balanced level due to being drawn to lost souls of despair and rage who wander too far from the path of Enma's castle. Though they aren't imposed to consuming other things that excite their curious appetites.

Devourer Demons do not typically have fathers. Not like you have a mama and papa, they tend to only have mothers. Most Devour Demons are female, but spawn a male Devourer every hundred years of their eight hundred year lifespan. Typically the male demon is always a twin to their female sisters, though their appearances vary from each other.

The role of a Male Devourer Demon is to then reproduce with his mother's sister's daughter's, when they mature at a hundred years. Though the exchange is less reproduction and merely a swapping of one's information a part of the Males' body goes to the female a part of the females Spirit energy goes to the Male so he may find her again. The Female then often chooses when to reproduce.

Though not all Male Devourers' are the same. Due to human's greedy interventions, female devour demons have been taken from the Spirit Realm to be exchanged in circles of sexual exploits. While Male devour demons are prized and praised for their fighting capabilities. Often taken as early as they can be taken to imprint them with hatred, rage, and despair to increase their energy aptitude in the fighting rings they are placed in.

Male Devourer taken from their homes have a harder time returning to their kind and reproducing with the females. It is especially difficult when Devour Demons are solitary creatures, who often wander in search of things to consume, and do not necessarily like sitting down and talking with each other. They rarely have a sense of community to one another.

The Spirit Realm has a surprising lack of data on how the Devourer powers actual work. Though with Kirah on the team it does provide some insight.

Appearance - D Rank Demon:

Kirah_D.jpg

Let's make this clear. Kirah doesn't have a human disguise. Due to the fact Devourer Demons exchange information through their bodies. They are what they eat. In this case most Devourer Demons enjoy the taste or are drawn often to human souls. And thus their demon forms are humanoid. Perhaps in a way to lure a wandering soul to trust them.


Kirah stands at 5'10" with long silver hair, and sharp claws. He seems to prefer long sleeves and loose fitting clothes. His skin is pale white and he has a few unusual markings above his thin eyebrows. His eyes are normally green, with odd bands in them.

*He was captured in an outfit that included karusan bakama, with a metallic tassled skirt hanging over the side, shinguard and footpads, an odd top with a flowing sleeve, and a side without a sleeve. With a bicep bracelet, bandages, metallic choker, and an earring.

*See Rage Form for Alternative Outfit; his clothes do not change in transformation. The alternative outfit is one of the two outfits he actually owns. So he can technically wear the alternative outfit in his normal form, and his normal form outfit in his first photo in rage form.

Yes there will be a beach chapter

He weighs in Rage Form and D Rank Form 135 lbs.

Rage Form - B Rank Demon

Kirah_B.jpg

Kirah can concentrate his energy, he seems to be able to focus his rage through himself which leads to his transformation. The small marks above his eyebrow in his normal form extend into swirling tattoos around the tip of his almond eyes. His silver hair becomes red and his pointed claws tend to turn red as well. While the rest of him remains as white as he were. When he does this the dark circle around his feet rise up a bit, like whipping black, flickering shadow tails rising from the ground. Sometimes these tails shape themselves in the hydra form of wolves or dog heads.

Berserk Form - S Rank Demon - Advice Run, More Advice Do Not Let it Get to this Point

Kirah_S.jpg

A large, hydra shadow wolf dog, it appears to be some kind of defense mechanism Devourer demons have. We assume that this must be their true form, one rarely seen because it seems to only occur for different reasons. The most automatic understanding is during a struggle of life and death, if they cannot win their weaker forms and are on the cusp of life and death may transform into this beast. There is something in books that say it also may be activated upon extreme grief.

A large 6ft beast, whose main body is black, whipping shadows, with four tails, that have the heads of dogs on them. They have a very odd appearance some kind of mixture between a wolf and a dog like a pitbull in the human world. It weighs about a ton.

It does not seem to recognize nor care what is friend and foe and will kill whatever is in its way. And when we say kill we also kind of mean you'll end up in its stomach as food whether or not it is hungry.

Personality Strengths:

Despite his unwillingness to open up to us about himself there was a reason why we decided to lend him to the Spirit Recovery Agency.

"Loyal" - It seems as long as you do not betray Kirah or have earned some modicum of respect he won't kill you or threaten to eat you. So he does seem to have some sense of loyalty. I wish I knew that before he ate two of my guards, oh well.

Crafty - It's one of the reasons why he escaped our detection for so long. He's seems to be a lot smarter than what he lets on. When most of his conversations are about how he plans to cook you. He told me I'd taste good with Ponzu sauce,. I assure him I would not. I'd taste better with soy sauce. I am more of an original flavor! Wait! You can't eat me, I am the son of Enma.

[This part doesn't seemed to be filled out. All that is left is a bunch of squiggles and inlegible hand writing. Then words I will not be eaten. I am not tasty. Does summer hot pot exist?]

Personality Flaws:

Kirah is an unlikeable person who has a lot of flaws to name. He has no respect for authority, eat me please, he should eat my advisor. A drawn picture of an oni with a single horn crying next to this sentence, Koenma-sama, why? He seems bad tempered, and indifferent to others suffering.

[A message is written here. Koenma-sama did not nap. I his assistant will try to fill in the rest for you.]

Distrusting of Others - Kirah seems to have trouble letting others in.

Can be Apathetic - He does seem to have a habit of not caring a lot. Maybe he just needs a hug.

[there seems to be a crease in the paper where someone must have crumpled the paper up. Nothing else is written]

**
Abilities:

Spirit Siphon -

This is the most noticeable skill of a Devourer demon. Kirah jokes about the physical eating of individuals, most Devourer demons don't necessarily care for the flesh of others, but rather the energy in the air. It is a passive capability of theirs to take in small amounts of energy through the atmosphere and filter it through their system. But the Spirit Siphon can be more dangerous than simply able to soak up passive, residual energy hanging in the air.

You will note when you are near Kirah he has no shadow. Instead there is a 75 centimeter circumference, about the circumference of a basketball, black shape under his feet at all times. This circumference actually is the main body of his true form. All though it might not entirely be his main body, but his stomach. The information is really limited on exactly it is.

When enemies pass through this circumference, something they have to do so in order to hit him in the first place. A part of the spirit energy they activate gets absorbed into the main body of the Devourer demon. This is what causes the fluctuation in their power and energy.

Of course in combat this is not power Kirah can store. Because he uses what is siphoned to strengthen his demonic energy. Thus it is always a constant exchange of taking power and spending it.

And because of this Siphon ability it means Kirah has slight, only slight resistance to spiritual energy coming to him. It's not easy to overwhelm Kirah when you are weaker than him or at the same strength as him. Those with higher levels of spiritual energy may be able to overwhelm him in the beginning of the battle, but if he Siphons enough he may be able to direct damage done to him.

High Physical Resistance -

Kirah can take a beating that's for damn sure, at least compared to a human. He seems unphased by punches that have no spirit energy in them. And he also seems completely unphased when small family sized sedans crash into him. He actually smooshes their hood more than they smoosh him. Though this doesn't mean he can never take damage.

If he's not taken enough energy from a higher class of demon then him, he's going to feel it. It may take him a while to topple over, but his aura guards him. The stronger his aura is dependent on the amount of energy he has been able to siphon.

When it is simply the residual energy hanging in the air, nothing normal can really hit him. But powerful demons and spirit energy can. But when he has actually taken the energy of something strong he has a greater guard for spiritual energy attacks.

This weakness however does not apply to Kirah when he is in rage form. He seems to take spiritual energy attacks with more gusto when he is in rage form. But this can prove a poor strategy considering it is throwing oneself in the thrust of battle that kicks in survival instincts. Survival instincts that spur on changes like going into his Berserk form.

In his Berserk form is when he has the highest resistance. Lower demons cannot touch him and will end up being chow. Moderate demons may struggle. And only Top Tier and other Special Class demons can really make his Berserk form submit in pain. But even that takes a damn while because Kirah completely lost his mind at that point he's so feral he doesn't even register the world.

Greater Strength -

He's a lot stronger than a human though. While his Spiritual Energy on its own may be at a D rank, his physical strength is still greater than a human. Greater in this circumstance means he can lift a human and weaker demons with one hand with sheer ease. It means if he flexed his arm out, he could use his strength alone to stop either small motorbikes, or small family sized sedans. And this amount of greater strength doesn't necessarily change much in his rage form.

The Berserk form is much more different, it can barrel through semi trucks like they are lightweight champions in a wrestling match. Seems more capable of taking down a small office building if it wanted to.

The only time his strength really wanes is if he's really exhausted all of his reserves or has taken quite the beating.

Tail Manipulation -

Just like any common house pet, Kirah has full control over his tails. Able to direct and manipulate in any direction he pleases. He has five at his disposal.

Skills:

Dirty Fighter -

Kirah has no formal master or trainer of martial skills. Actually his combat style in battle seems to be one that overwhelms the enemy with a quick, dirty street fighting method. He hunches his back a little, hunkers down only slightly and fights like a feral dog. Though there is more method to the way Kirah fights, feral dog gives the impression of an unskilled fighter. When the reality is that he is a very skilled fighter with no name to his style.

To demonstrate his style, I am going to reference a little over to Iori. Somethings are different. While he has a stance similar to Iori and I sort of like the slashing combos and overwhelming brute strength with rushing combos. Kirah does not have purple fire. He can, explained in his powers, extend his main body out from the floor and send a wave of those tails with dog heads on them to chew you up. So if you do watch the video assume any time Iori sends out fireballs, it's more like Kirah sending dogs or mass of shadows to whip you instead.

Excellent Reading -

It's very clear Kirah knows where to hit and how hard to hit his enemy. He goes for soft spots, vitals, and important parts that can bleed out quick. He doesn't seem to waste any energy sinking his claws into his enemies and piercing through their skin. He hits where it hurts. If you have a weakness and he spots it, he will exploit it. This is what makes him such a skilled killer.

Criminal Connections -

This is all I am going to say on the subject. Kirah seems to have criminal connections in the City of Vices and the Demon City, as well as connections with humans in the Black Market. This is why he was chosen for your mission.

Excellent Cook -

He is an excellent cook, however, and told me of all the ingredients to make a delicious Summer Hot Pot. The broth was light and delicious. The meat was tender and sweet.

Crooked Handwriting underneath - I served him one of his guards.

Koenma Horrified Face - I am going to be sick!

D-Rank Powers:

*Powers are not transferable between the transformations. D Rank Kirah has no capability of dipping into any of the powers he has in other forms. The only power that transfers to all the forms is spirit claws.

Spirit Claws - Kirah main weaponry is his claws. Terribly sharp. They can slice pretty deep. But to make them even sharper, he coats the tips of his claws with enough spirit energy to cut through even stone and armor. Keeping his claw tips with spirit energy just requires he has spirit energy to do so. If Kirah exhaust his reserves his claws are useless.

Rage - B Powers:

*Spirit Claws

Reiki no a Shuryō Kemono [Aura of a Hunting Beast]

Something is different about Kirah. He focuses all of his energy into him, channelling the energy he has collected into a more focused energy now. His Rage is his weapon and his strength. In this transformation part of his main form seems more bubbled up at his surface. Whipping tails no longer disguised at the bottom of his feet. Whipping tails with hungry maws, snapping and licking their chops. Salivating at the meal in front of them.

You can feel the beast hungry. Behind him. Maybe in his aura you can see the face of the beast that lies waiting. You see a dog wolf head, licking its canines and snarling at you. It's hungry you can feel its hunger and you can feel you are being preyed upon.

Weaker demons freeze in fear at the sight of such a beast. Stronger demons know that this is the beast sending out its warning. Clearly it's an intimidation tactic, but now Kirah cannot disguise his aura any more.

Kappatsuna Hanto [Vigorous Hunt]

It's not that the Siphon no longer works in the forms. It simply seems to work differently. With every swipe of a claw. Every teeth from the jaws of the wolves, he only seems to grow stronger from your pain as you grow weaker. The Siphon no longer takes energy from you indirectly as you enter his space, he is directly drinking it from you through your wounds. The more he tears into you. The more energy he takes from you.

But just like the Siphon, none of this energy is kept for too long. With every attack he also expels the energy he is taking from you to fuel his attacks. You can't take back your energy, but he's already used what he needs from you.

Fugō no Akuma no Inu [Mark of the Demon Dog]

As the demon dog breaks into your skin. He leaves trails of a unique spiritual energy into your wounds. Even if you escape battle he may still find this signature he has left in your wounds and track you down. You're lucky, if you can run to safety in the next 10 to 15 minutes the mark fades. Kirah has trouble following the trail in areas where spirit energy muddies the trail or another person's strong energy floods the area leaving the trail broken.

That is though if you're lucky.

Beserk/True Form - S Powers:

Kirah cannot transform into his Berserk/True form willingly. It is impossible for him to do so. As his species has adapted to making itself more appealing to human eyes, the only thing to break that spell is through a struggle of life and death where the beast feels its life is threatened. Or if the creature experiences a circumstance of great grief to something or someone dear to them.

Kirah has no mind of his own in this form. Friend and foe are nearly the same to the appetites of a Devourer when it is in this form. In this form it is about surviving and wiping out all threats in its path to make sure it ensures its survival.

*Spirit Claws transfer, and Spirit Jaw is added, same ability, but now with teeth and claws

Yūgaina Kokyū no Akuma Inu [Demon Dogs Noxious Breath]

It's easy to assume or mistake the mist this creature spits out as acid or poison, since it corrodes anything that gets in its path. But that is not entirely the case. The Demon Dog is not an acid creature nor a fire creature nor a poison creature. Instead those noxious fumes that corrode cement, and steel, and have those that cannot take the stench faint, is created from the rotting flesh that decomposes in the mouth of the demon dog.

The fumes has two features. It can eat away at open wounds, corrode cement or steel, and for weaker demons either completely corrode them into nothing or some simply faint from the smell of dead meat. Not just any dead meat, but the dead, rotting flesh of other demons, decomposing in its mouth.

Most can guard themselves from the corroding effects through guarding themselves with large amounts of their aura, though those that can do this are top tier demons or special class demons themselves. Weaker demons can run out of the spray behind a stone where it corrodes the stone, but may need to hold their breath as to not pass out from the stench alone.

Fugō no Akuma no Inu [Mark of the Demon Dog 2]

You thought you could get away? Not from this beast. If it doesn't tear you to shreds. It will make sure you do not survive the encounter with it for too long. While Mark of the Demon Dog in Rage Form tracks their enemies. The true form has no desire to track down an enemy.

Instead every slash you took from the demon dog infects the wound with a powerful bacteria, that either sickens you into submission even if you manage to get away prepare for a fever that feels like your insides are burning, and there are needles in your skins as you begin to profusely sweat. Or the more likely is the bacteria in your wounds eats away at all the tissue till your limb falls off, and even then if you don't get treatment the bacteria will continue to spread throughout your body as you die in agony.

Hauringu Hōki [Howling Demise]

Kirah extend a large paw out and tilts his head to the sky and begins to howl. Sure you can cover your ears to drown out some of the loud rumbling howling of the dog wolf shadow monster, but it won't do you much good. It's not the sound that will get you. Those who are not aware of it, don't realize it's not the howling that gets you, it's the sheer force and vibration of the howl that is laced with spirit energy that literally has enemies explode without a chance. Bones, flesh, muscle, all explode in one goop pile. Because of this, I have updated your watches with a blocking device that shields you in a different vibration so the vibration of the howl cannot touch you. In theory. Aren't you lucky you are the first to test this theory. If you start to feel shaky, good idea is to just run.

*Kirah once he transforms back from his true form back to his normal rank is so exhausted he cannot do much of anything else and may entirely pass out. He is completely helpless after his transformation into his true form.

Weapons: NA - I have claws. Why would I waste my time with flimsy objects?

Equipment: NA - Bringing stuff is a lot of work and the effort of having to carrying it everywhere and not forget where it is, is annoying. If I know it will take a long time I will bring snacks.

Give Me Something Sad:

See food is kinda my thing. Humans have so many interesting recipes and sauces. I really like these things called onigiri, they are rice balls and I can't quite manage their shape. But they are delicious when made. But they take forever and I don't like when things take forever. I had prepared a batch of onigiri for me and the boys, when I unwrapped the onigiri it fell on the floor and got dirty. I do not like dirt in my food no matter the circumstance. Mud and blood don't mix, and onigiri do not mix with mud. No one else wanted to give me their onigiri so I was disappointed that day because I do not like my effort going to the floor.

"It was supposed to be a real story Kirah"

"It is a real story"

"It's not really sad"

"My stomach was sad,"

"Why not a story that makes people endear to you more"

-murderous glare-

"I will not tell anyone that story,"


Give Me Something Funny: NA - Will be edited when we get into the IC.

Personal History: Classified

First Impressions: Since Kirah is a new member, he will instead write in this section his first impressions of each person.

Octopus Demon - Annoying - Too many legs or I am sorry tentacles, do not know what direction they are going. Would taste good as sushi.

Pastry - Aiko Kirah Focus - Pastry - Aiko - Maybe a Cookie - snaps fingers Aiko - I heard the first time

Blue Hair Woman - Familiarity

♪♫ Will tomorrow ever come? Will I make it through the night?
Will there ever be a place for the broken in the light?
Am I hurting? Am I sad? Should I stay, or should I go?
I've forgotten how to tell. Did I ever even know?
Can I take another step? I've done everything I can
All the people that I see I will never understand
If I find a way to change, if I step into the light
Then I'll never be the same, and it all will fade to white ♪♫



Name:

Kogura

Age:

100 (Looks 18)

Gender:

Female

Brief Summary:

Kogura has been working with the Spirit detective agency for about 50 years now, and so far she hasn't regret her decision for accepting their job offer. They seemed quite impressed with her fighting abilities and she liked the idea of their cause.

*Demon Class: [Class D - A]

B rank Demon

Demon Type:


Kogura is a siren type demon, as they have been referred in mythology. She is a songstress with a divine singing voice. Those of weak will (or the easily enchanted) would find themselves enamored with her voice. And once her victim arrived, she would promptly slaughter them to feed. She is rarely hungry, but when the craving does come around, she desires blood and meat.

After so long of just luring and killing, she decided to step away from the mindless bloodshed and help the humans. Kogura has also become feeling guilty over the years of taking lives, and hopes she can be of use helping.

Appearance:


Water anime girl.jpg

Demon Form:

Water ice girl2.jpg


Personality Strengths:


Charming- Due to her siren blood, Kogura's appeal can captivate the weak minded men and women. By "weak minded", this means the foolish individuals. Her way of speech also gives away elegance, since she tends to speak properly.

Surprisingly motherly- Kogura had wanted to bear young when she was younger, but had never gotten around to it. She tends to care for and "mother hen" friends who are younger than her. This includes the desire to help them in any way she can. From protecting them on the battlefield to singing a lullaby to help them sleep soundly.

Self-Discipline- Kogura did not get good with her weapons by sitting around singing all day. She, when she sets her mind to something, shows a surprising amount of diligence to perfect something she wants to be good at. She enjoys the satisfaction of working hard to perfect a new skill.



Personality Flaws:


Perfectionist- As such with perfectionism, Kogura can take it too far. This includes getting a bit worked up over a tilted painting or a missed note in her singing practice. She is extra hard on herself when she makes a mistake and can't seem to forgive herself over what others believe to be trivial.

Skeptical of self- When a decision is made, there is always a nagging voice in the back of her mind that she should double check, then double check again to be sure. She cannot make her choices with confidence due to always questioning whether it was right or not. This can sometimes lead to poor split second decision making and wrong lyrics being sung. Though, this will be more dangerous for herself than for others.

Nosy- Kogura always likes to know what's going on, though sometimes she can't help but peep at information she has no business in seeing. She's just a very curious girl.



Abilities:

Immunity to water- Kogura is a water demon, so anything involving water will not hurt her. This includes water of freezing or boiling temperatures. So long as water is present, she will not feel the pain. This does not apply to the other elementals.

Strength- Kogura, despite not seeming so, is surprisingly strong for her stature (All the better to rip victims apart with). She is capable of ripping off a normal human's arm with a good amount of effort.

Water Manipulation- What this means is Kogura is capable of turning herself and her weapons into a liquid and holding them on her person for easy carry. When she needs it, she can summon it easily with a flick of her fingers. However, it is quite easy to put her in a difficult position. All you need is a sponge or a washcloth.

This ability includes resistance, which would have Kogura walking on water if she wanted to.

Underwater breathing- As a water demon, breathing underwater is not a problem.



Skills:

[/bg]​
[bg=black][/bg][bg=black][/bg][bg=black]
Divine voice- She holds a beautiful singing voice for enchanting all who hear it due to so many years of practice. This skill can be used to lure enemies or make allies feel more energized. Those who are deaf or have strong will immune to this.

Lance fighting- Kogura, after years of practicing due to being bored in her spare time, learned to wield a lance. One in particular she keeps on her person at all times.

Dancing- Kogura mixes her graceful dancing with her fighting, which makes her quite agile and "slippery" to put it in words.




Powers:

Slowed bleeding- Kogura manipulates the water in her blood to keep her from bleeding out faster. Really handy if she needs to get somewhere safe. She can do this for another person, but it would be hopeless if she was trying to stop the bleeding on a fatal wound.

Song of Enchantment- This song she sings can cause her foes to lose their will to fight entirely and submit to peace. This song draining on Kogura and can affect her allies as well. Her allies should consider bringing ear plugs.

Water wave- Summon a thick wave of water out of thin air to completely stop or (if it's too fast) slow the attack so it's easier to dodge. Four waves is the maximum, and even then the opponent could still break the defenses.

Weapon:

Kogura uses a lance for battle. It holds an extended blade for easier reach. Besides the black color and ability to become water under her touch, it is a normal weapon.

Equipment:

Lance-

Canteens- To keep her weapon in and have some refreshment handy for anyone who wants it. Keeps them specifically marked and locked so no one drinks her lance.

Give me Something Sad:

A fish looked at her with loving eyes as Kogura stabbed it in the heart to eat.

Give me Something Funny:

She's blue (da ba dee da ba daa)

Personal History Highlights:

Kogura had spent most of her time near oceans, lakes, and pretty much any large bodies of water. She shaped her song around her experiences as a siren, which means the song speaks about her thoughts as she feels her descent into the darkness, and her hopes to become someone better. It is her favorite song due to its personal connection to her. She also learned the positivity of mothering others when a family vacationed near the lake she resided. This event also gave her second thoughts about her behavior as a siren, and inspired change for herself. This also made her realize she wanted children, but with none to call her own she cares for her friends instead.

Relationships with the current Detectives:

Akkorokamui: "A fellow demon terrorizing the waters. I wish I could have seen how you hunt."


Aiko: "Oh how adorable~ May I hug you?"

Kirah: "Who is Kirah, again?"

Naoyuki: "Even though your presence intimidates me, I shall treat you as kindly as I do the rest and care about you just the same."

Fimi: "I could hold and cuddle you all day. I cannot provide luxuries, but will a song be just as good?"

Theme Song:

(The song she always sings)

^I'm liking what I highlighted so far. Funny thing is that mothering nature may be helpful.
 
Heheh, I'm glad she can be of use. She also gives free hugs and lullabies

Do you plan to turn the font legible after its finished? lol. I cheated, I highlighted it just to take a sneak peak. I saw that as well. Kirah might not like the hugs or lullabies though.

Yeah, it's black so I can see it against my "Sunrise" Iwaku background.

Also, fine. More hugs for... herself then.
 
I think that should be done now.
 
You plan to talk about how long she's been in the detective and all that?
 
Yup, I just have no idea what to write there

Fantastic! But that's good! Because that's why we here to plots and stuff. -throws confetti in the air-

WOOO!

Kirah coming into this brand spanking new. You guys are going to meet him in the IC, but he will be very helpful. lol. And probably try to stick everything that can fit into his mouth to see if taste any good to him. looool

We have to wait for the others to be up, its technically almost 5am for me and I should have been asleep. But I got distracted with animes watchin!.
 
I'm so sorry, mine's taking a while since I'm working on two character sheets at the same time. >~< I am definitely getting there, though. But it looks like we might not have worked together, Aiko? Since I was planning on Aya being... like, 20-something.

No Aki, you cannot put THAT in his mouth, you'll only regret it...

I'm awake and ready to continue plotting and filling out my cs!

Ewwwwwwwww. Hentai Octopus. Echi Octopus more like it.

Sad part is Kirah, with his past would not understand what Aki means when he says things like that. Kirah so oblivious.

@the.complex-of-constellations

There's no rush since we're all going to plot anyway. And why not? If your character is 20 something she could be a member for a while and could have been Aki's mentor. Or something of that nature.
