Please allow me, it's no problem at all. -Hotaru
Full Name: Tsukishima Hotaru

Age: 16

Written Name: 月島蛍 (might be incredibly wrong, relied on google lol)

Hair: Black

Eye Design: Red

Extra Markings or Accessories: Flower hairpin

Haori Design: Hotaru's haori is black with silk red flower accents sewn on.

Leg Wrapping Design: Black that fades to a red, the same red shade as the flowers.

Chosen Footwear: Black and red geta sandals

Chosen Breathing Technique: Shadow Breathing User

Nichirin Blade Color: Red

Personality: Hotaru is a demure, poised, and incredibly dignified young lady who prefers to move in silence out of politeness. Although she rarely speaks, her presence is never missed due to the natural elegance that she exudes from years of working at her family's traditional tea house. She strives in being kind to anyone that comes her way, and will always try to accommodate others so that they can be their most relaxed around her, however....

The moment she gets hit during combat, all of that politeness is immediately thrown out the window and an entirely different persona comes out. She suddenly sports a brazen personality that holds incredible animosity, especially towards demons. Hotaru's polite speech turns into one of profanities and extremely cruel taunting. She will stop at no end to sadistically torture her enemies, and will even get pissed off if someone tries to stop her. Hotaru will continue to have this other persona until she either gets knocked out or falls asleep. When she wakes up, she'll have no remembrance of her rampage. (This persona can be referred to as Shadow Hotaru).

Background: Hotaru grew up in a household that farmed high-quality tea and often helped her mother perform tea ceremonies for guests and villagers. Her mother raised her incredibly hard to be a proper ceremonial tea hostess, which was eventually how her personality as a dignified, polite young lady came to be. Despite the hard training, Hotaru never felt like she had a bad childhood. Her mother was harsh but she was also kind along with her father who taught her how to spot quality tea leaves. She had an older brother who was part of the Demon Slayer corp. Because her brother was constantly out on missions, Hotaru rarely had time to spend with him except for the rare occasions when he would visit their estate. It is safe to assume that she had a peaceful life.

Unfortunately, that peaceful life was abruptly disrupted when Hotaru, her brother, and her father returned home from harvesting crops. When they were approaching the estate, the metallic smell of blood wafted in the air which caused Hotaru's father to be cautious. As they got closer, her father realized her mother's bloodied hand on the floor and saw a demon eating her lower torso. Instinctively, her father ran toward his wife but then was immediately killed due to the demon's Blood Demon Art. Hotaru remembered screaming and crying in distraught, and with her brother seeing this, he took out his nichirin and told her to run away. Refusing to lose her brother, Hotaru begged and pleaded to stay but to no avail. At the very least, she made him promise to return to her alive for assurance before she ran. Unfortunately, she would discover later that he was unable to keep that promise.

Currently Mastered Shadow Breathing Forms:
Shadow Breathing is a style of demon-slaying that derives from Moon Breathing. With this style, the user is able to manipulate shadows at will and use them for attacks that mainly circulate around agility, stealth, traps, or deadly strikes. There are seven known techniques, but as of right now Hotaru has managed to master three:

First Form - Darkness Barrage: Hotaru slips herself into surrounding shadows and uses them to swiftly jump around the opponent while attacking at max speed, treating the shadows as if they're like portals. This can cause confusion for the opponent because it's difficult to tell where she will emerge from. The more shadows there are, then the more leeways she has to attack the opponent. This attack is useful for wearing down the enemy.

Fourth Form - Nightmare Prison: Hotaru plunges her nichirin into the opponent's shadow which temporarily paralyzes them. When she pulls out her weapon, black misty chains emerge from the enemy's shadow and wrap themselves around its owner in vital areas for movement such as the neck, ribcage, and limbs. The chains get tighter and tighter until they eventually shred into the enemy's skin causing major damage.

Sixth Form - Thousand Shadow Moons: The most exhaustive form of them all, Hotaru jumps up and envelops her nichirin in darkness, spinning her body faster and faster until she creates a strong enough momentum that makes her look like a whirling shadow tornado. With this momentum and the added energy of the shadows, Hotaru then uses this to focus her attack on her opponent's neck and strikes, usually being the fatal blow.

Fun Facts:
  • Her brother's name was Tsukishima Hakutoku. His rank was Kanoe.
  • Hotaru carried on Hakutoku's breathing style. They are both Shadow Breathing users.
  • Shadow Hotaru's persona derives from the pent-up anguish that she felt when she lost her family. It's a way for her to cope.
  • She is skilled in many different areas as a result of her mother's training such as traditional dance, making tea, and making traditional Japanese wagashi (sweets) that pair well with her tea.
  • Her favorite food is daifuku.
  • Hotaru's voice is naturally mature and soft, but when she turns into Shadow Hotaru her voice noticeably deepens and has a more sadistic tone (she sounds like Esdeath from Akame ga Kill)

HISTORY::
Hayato never planned to work towards stopping the Fourteenth Precession. In fact, he didn't even know about it. After he survived the Final Selection, he expected to be part of the cause to defeat the Twelve Kizuki and The Demon King, Muzan, but instead, he was sent to another branch of the Demon Slayer Corps. It pissed him off. All that work he did. That training and countless hours of his life spent. And having to survive against countless demons at the Final Selection. All of it for nothing. But he's still a dedicated person so, Hayato still plans to give it his all. He sees this other branch as a place for the weaker slayers, but will soon find out that it is completely the opposite.

Hayato trained to learn Wind Breathing with the wind pillar, Sanemi Shinazugawa. This was one of the most excruciating experiences of his life. He fears Sanemi more than demons. First, he had to convince Sanemi to teach him which, of course, ended up with Sanemi saying no. Hayato continued asking, which got him plenty of beatings, but he strived to continue. And then, after Sanemi had beat him down for the 53rd time, he agreed to teach him. During his training, Hayato worked out intensely and was constantly scolded. In the end, he learned 4 forms, which was disappointing to his mentor, because there were 9 forms to learn. Soon later, Hayato found himself off to the Final Selection, where those 4 forms were extremely useful. He blitzed through demons and saved countless lives of weaker slayers. So why was he in the offshoot branch?

Personality & History


Personality
Jay is a kind soul with a tired expression. She's not well-motivated alone and it's not due by choice. Jay has a condition called 'Narcolepsy' and most often is seen tired after a mission taking a nap. She struggles to energize herself to the point she has accepted her truth without trying to harness the habit. She's managed to teach herself to be alert while asleep, honing her senses to survive. Although she seems to not care as much, the truth is she strives for revenge and in search of her precious treasure, her older brother. Jay is a calm and collected person and can have fun around people without a problem. She's not opposed to being friendly but most times she's serious.


History
Jay grew up unlike any other in the mountains with an older brother named, "Rin" who for the past three years has taken great care of her after their parents passed away from an illness. The same illness being genetic and unpredictable eventually was diagnosed in Rin at the age of Twenty-five. Protective of the consequences, Rin did everything to teach Jay how to survive while Jay refused not understanding why she was forced to learn when her big brother promised to always care for her so she wouldn't have to worry. Rin struggled to keep his secret and find a reasonable explanation without panicking her to no avail. When his body ceased to function, it was evident Rin's time was coming to a close, and having to preserve as much energy in bed rest. Distraught by reality, Jay reluctantly stopped being selfish after praying to God that as long as she did as her brother asked, he will stay alive. Jay put forth her faith in God and worked hard to prove to Rin that she was capable of surviving. Regardless of the one-sided promise, Rin's fate was already said and done when he decided not to wake up one morning. In his final moments, he wrote a letter and a message to seek a man named, "Kiba Akumi" for help. Too heartbroken to try, the angry little girl burned her home along with the body and sat and watched as it went down to ash. She felt angry at Rin for leaving yet knew he had no control over what happened to him. As she turned her back against the ashen building, something inside of her made her grab a container and put Rin's ash's into a canister to have a part of him with her at all times.

Jay journeyed over to the city at the age of eight searching for the character her brother had intended and while she was there, she was amazed by the difference in advances. Large machinery like trolleys and tall buildings towered over the people illuminating the skies almost every night of the hour. Jay thought it to be a fantasy but soon learned how bitter and sinful the people are compared to the country. Being small and helpless, Jay eventually learned to steal and hustle people out of their money. Street smarts and keen strategies have led her to be troublesome to the police. Jay became known as a runt for her mischief, but it was all to help some poor kids even demon slayers to which she had no idea what they were. Eventually, at the age of 11, her shenanigans lead her to wander the forest and hide only to be met with a shriek from a civilian whose boyfriend shifted to a demon. Jay had never seen one before nor heard of one since she was four and even then it was a vague topic. Jay was terrified at first before grabbing a rock and throwing it at the demon grabbing its attention. She hadn't planned far enough to kill such a creature but lured it away easily without anticipating its
inhuman speed. For once Jay was scared again as it pounced trying to eat her flesh. Thankfully, a stranger came across and killed the demon. As it dissipates, the cool hat and clogs man gives Jay a smirk before offering her his hand, asking for her condition. Jay takes his hand and follows the stranger to be tended to her wounds. Jay questioned the person and his dealings with the demon to which he surprised her with his name and occupation. A demon slayer trainer is known as Kiba Akumi.

After learning of the man's identity, Jay broke down recalling her past and explaining her situation along with the letter. When Kiba read the letter, he seemed mournful and then welcomed her to train her to be a demon slayer leaving Jay confused. As it turned out, Rin was a demon slayer and their parents were slaughtered by them instead of falling ill. Kiba and Rin were partners until Rin decided to raise Jay. There were more secrets to be told after he warned that his teachings are harsh and intense because the journey itself was much direr than it sounds. Jay didn't want to join at first finding it too much, but needed to know the secrets behind her brother. Kiba noticed how much of a motivator it is and used it as a means to tease and force Jay to train, irking the girl. Since then, he trained the girl and even whipped her personality in shape becoming who she is now with the unprecedented narcolepsy, an object in her goal to make her sensei proud.

Quirks
Jay is Narcoleptic and can hustle a person with it
She has street smarts
sleeps standing up, but try not to attack them during the moment

Rin would help out around the store, delivering the clothes either in town or making the journey to the town over that was perhaps an hour or two away on foot.

One day Rin was coming back from making a delivery outside of town when she noticed the dirt leading up to the village was soaked in blood. It didn't take her long to find the first body, a child no older than five tossed aside in the grass just inside the gate.

I must find her again....her.....who is her? -Hakuto
Demon Name: Hakuto

Human Name: Tsukishima Hakutoku

Hair: Silver with one eye covered by his bangs, previously black when he was human

Eye Design: Dark blue with black scleras that appear to be blank with no pupils, originally red with white scleras

Skin Markings: Black patches of skin that strategically creep along his pale body.

Outfit: Hakuto is topless, but his body harnesses a strange, cage-like armor that wraps itself onto him. The armor is made out of crystallized shadow and is quite sturdy enough to cause damage to nichirin. The top half of the shadow armor wraps around his neck to protect it, and it's usually a hard feat if you were to try to pry it off of him.

Extra Accessories: Two horns emerging from his head that seem to always have a type of shadowy mist surrounding them.

Blood Demon Art - Shadow Crystallization: Hakuto's Blood Demon Art derives from his previous Breathing Style when he was a human. This technique allows him to manifest shadows into physically solidified forms and bend them to his will. He can use this in many ways, such as creating barriers or forming lethal spears that emerge from the shadows and lunge them at lightning speeds.

Personality: Hakuto has an apathetic, deadpan personality that's become a shell of his former self. He never has much to say, but when he does it usually relates to his strange urge to find someone. It's unknown what he's referring to, in fact, Hakuto doesn't really understand it well himself. It is just a forever itching feeling that there is someone he must return to which never seems to go away. Annoyed with being unable to understand where it comes from, he usually takes out his frustration on killing and devouring humans in the belief that it will fulfill the void.

Background: Hakuto was formerly an official member of the Demon Slayer Corp who was training to become one of the next Hashiras as a Shadow Breathing user. During his visit to his family and his hometown, which was a typically rare occasion, Hakuto went along with his father and sister to harvest some tea leaves for the season, leaving his mother at home to prepare dinner for when they returned. Upon arrival at the estate, there was a stench of blood that reeked throughout the building. It was a scent that was so strong, you could smell it from just approaching the gateway. When they entered they saw his mother's bloodied corpse being eaten by a demon who had broken in. Blinded by rage, Hakuto's father had already barged toward the demon without thinking, and the moment he set foot into the same room his body was instantly obliterated by the demon's Blood Demon Art. At the sight of her father's body splattered everywhere, his younger sister Hotaru began screaming and crying in both fear and anguish. Enraged by the killing of his parents, Hakuto readied his nichirin and began to set forth, but then he felt a smaller pair of hands pull him back by his uniform.

"Nii-san, please don't.....don't leave me alone! You're all I have left!"

The former Shadow Breathing user turned back to see his sister crying profusely at him, feeling her hand trembling as it desperately clutched onto the fabric of his coat. Hakuto's expression softened before he grabbed her hand and squeezed it tightly, crouching down to her eye level. "I won't, I will return to you once I've made sure that our household is safe. There is no one else left to protect it, understand?" With a soft smile that would end up being his last, Hakuto stood up and faced his back towards her, readying his twin nichirins before getting into a readying stance, slowly starting to begin his Total Concentration breathing. "Ru-chan, run. You must go before it's too late."

Having to accept her brother's decision to stay, the younger sibling wiped her swollen eyes and turned around to face the entrance. She gave a last look to her brother, before speaking to him once again with a trembling voice. "You must promise that you'll return to me no matter what. If you don't, I will condemn you over and over again!" With those last words of hers being said, Hakuto watched his sister clenching a fist in anticipation before reluctantly sprinting away towards the neighboring forests that would keep her hidden throughout the night. Giving a small sigh of relief, the Shadow Breathing user turned his full attention back onto the demon and darkened his expression. "You will atone for your sins, you monster!"


While Hakuto was able to successfully kill the demon, the fight, unfortunately, left him in a near-death state. The demon was skilled no doubt and had definitely gotten the best of him. His body was laying on the floor with his eyes turned up to the ceiling, a soft hiss emitting from his lips in an effort to use his breathing to slow his increasing blood loss. One of his nichirins was next to his body on the floor while the other one was split in two by the hilt and the blade, but Hakuto didn't care about that. All he could think about was how apologetic he was for not being able to honor Hotaru's promise, wondering where she was now and pondering whether she was safe. Suddenly, a lone shadow crept over him. Hakuto couldn't exactly see the man's face because of the blurry vision from his eyelids slowly dropping, but all he could remember was a chilling voice that traveled along his spine.

"Ah, I see. So you managed to best my latest project after all, Demon Slayer...You know, it's a shame you are in this pathetic state. I'm sure you imagined that you could've done so much more had you continued to live as a human..."

The figure inched closer to Hakuto's face with a small chuckle, and upon this was when he realized that the mysterious person was actually Kibutsuji Muzan. However his body was too far gone to give any sort of reaction, he was simply forced to stare up at the Demon King's menacing eyes. Upon his nonreactive response, Muzan smirked and wounded himself, revealing his blood that began dripping down his arm. "I wonder how Ubuyashiki would react when he realizes that I've turned one of his precious children into my own...one of his precious little Hashiras in training..."

Hakuto could only emit a dry gasping response that signaled defiance, but he felt the metallic foul taste of his blood seeping into his mouth against his will. All he could remember was the burning pain he felt that seemed to blast every nerve in his body, it felt like a second death all over again. Every cell in his body felt like it was going to split in half, each one just continuing to multiply at an extremely fast rate that created harrowing bursts of pain all over. It was all he could feel before he closed his eyes and whispered his last words from the remnants of his humanity: "Hotaru....forgive me..."

Fun Facts:
  • Hakuto's past determination to become a demon slayer came from listening to stories from another demon slayer that he met when he was young
  • His mother was vehemently against him joining the Demon Slayer Corps while his father was very supportive
  • Shadow Breathing was a style that he adapted himself because he couldn't find a fit with any of the currently existing forms
  • His favorite food is his sister's homemade treats, specifically sakura mochi, and his favorite drink is his family's homemade matcha
  • Hakuto prefers to target his prey when they're asleep, as it is less work and allows for swift kills
  • His voice is low and also soft. Think Arima Kousei from Your Lie In April.
