Morishita Akane

森下 朱峰​

​

Hair: Medium length, slightly wavy black hair with the top half pulled back in a ponytail tied with a blue-green ribbon and a few loose, messy locks framing the face- the result of partially grown out bangs.

Eye Design: The irises are a deep magenta that gets darker toward the pupils, with dark shadows on the upper half. The pupil is round and white and the overall shape of the eye is slightly upturned.

Markings/ Accessories: In addition to her hair ribbon, often wears grey Western-style driver's cap that used to belong to her brother, which gives her a tomboyish look.

Haori Design: Dark indigo with a white chidori (plover) pattern.

Leg Wrappings: Plain white wrappings.

Footwear: Zori Sandals with dark green thongs and black tabi socks.

Personality: Never one to back down from a challenge, Akane is strong willed, resourceful, principled, and capable of intense loyalty toward her chosen companions, but also tends to be stubborn, irritable, and haughty.

Main Breathing Technique: Flame Breathing

Background: Born to a wealthy Tokyo businessman and his socialite wife, Akane grew up surrounded by relative luxury and was given a top notch education alongside her two brothers. Daichi was four years her senior, a sensitive and passionate free spirit, while Jiro was two years younger and a spoiled brat. Rigid and emotionally distant, both parents put immense pressure on their older two children to succeed, and never seemed to be satisfied with their accomplishments. Akane dealt with the pressure by pushing herself to her limits, while her older brother, not naturally ambitious, resigned himself to failure and became a troublemaker. Despite being opposites in many ways, Daichi and Akane bonded over their shared love of kendo, literature, and music and would often advocate for each other in front of their parents and try to shield each other from punishment.

When she was fourteen years old, Daichi convinced Akane to sneak out with him and attend a festival in a town just outside the city. While riding back late at night with a family of farmers transporting produce, they were attacked. Daichi had told her to hide under the wagon, and when she emerged, all the farmers had been slaughtered and her brother, now a demon, was feeding on their corpses. She screamed, and he lunged for her, but inexplicably held back at the last moment and ran into the forest.

Several minutes later, a Demon Slayer found her curled up against the wagon wheel and trembling with shock. While he quickly escorted her to where she could see the lights of the city, he heard her story, and she begged him to go after her brother. He replied that he was on the trail of a very powerful demon and had no time to chase after "small fry". If she wanted to find him herself, her best bet was joining the Corps, but that was a grim and dangerous path. Undeterred, she refused to let him leave until he had given her some instructions about how to find a master. Since her brother would loathe what he had become, and because this had happened to him while he was trying to protect her, she resolved that it was her duty to put him out of his misery.

Her parents didn't believe her story, thinking either it was a lie concocted so that Daichi could run away, or that she'd gone mad, and promised to confine her to her room indefinitely until she stopped "talking nonsense". Demon Slaying, aside from being mythical, was not a suitable occupation for a young lady and put a damper on their plans for her arranged marriage. After a few days of confinement, she stole a fair amount of yen from her father, ran away from home, and, after many frustrating inquiries, found a master willing to take her on. The training was grueling, but, being naturally athletic and eager to learn, she made steady progress. After one year, two men showed up at the estate, having been hired by her parents to find her and bring her home. She beat them up and sent them back. In response, her parents disowned her. After three years of training, her master deemed her ready to face the Final Selection.

Leg Wrappings: Long, thigh-high, black, yoga leg warmers cut off at the ends of the heel and toes.

Footwear: boots

Personality in a Sentence: 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.

Current Main Breathing Technique: Water Breathing

Background: 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 the parents passed away from an illness. The same illness being genetic and unpredictable eventually was diagnosed within 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 happens 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 of advances. Large machinery like trolleys and tall buildings towering 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 lead her to be troublesome for 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 first before grabbing a rock and throwing it at the demon grabbing it's attention. She hadn't planned far enough to kill such a creature but lured it away easily without anticipating it's 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 explained her situation along with the letter. When Kiba read the letter, he seemed mournful 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 dire 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.

Any Quirks?: Narcoleptic and can hustle a person's money, street smarts

Nichirin Blade Color: Blue

 

[Xao]

Natsumi Naguwa
夏美南桑

Hair: Dark hair decorates the anterior of the boy's scalp, with pale ringlets that sporadically loom in the sea of black. The length is below ear level foremost, with strands becoming longer the closer they approach his nape. The longest of which is a single pale strip that softly rests on the back of his neck. On some ends of his hair, the natural dark pigment fades into a white gradient.

Eye Design: Bright orange irises are the most striking feature on otherwise plainly shaped eyes. Naguwa's glare is capable of instilling a subtle sense of alarm in most of his fellows. At the center of Naguwa's eyes, his pupils are punier than average—the quantity of light does not affect this feature. This hampering in his eye's natural ability to adjust is a symptom of his photophobia. Despite his occupation, his vision is more meager in the dark when compared to his peers. The boons he enjoys are a slightly larger field of view and a better perception of motion.

Markings / Accessories: Two large feather earrings dangle from the lobe of each ear. At the crest of each piece, a bright green band straps the plume to its hilt. The progenitor of the feather was a large hawk with dark brown specks bedecking their mantle. This pattern appears again in each draping article.

Haori Design: This article of cloth has an ocean blue in the backdrop. An array of lilypads carefully intertwine around and on top of one another to form a floral-esque pattern. The long haori drapes from his waist and pecks the top of his knees.

Leg Wrappings: His leg wraps are nothing special—they are a pale tan in coloration and do little more than serving their purpose.

Foot Wear: Naguwa covers his feet with maple geta and bright green-colored socks.

Personality: Naguwa is both an aloof and forgetful yet spirited boy; he cannot retain a piece of information for longer than a blip.


Frog breathing: Erratic yet precise, this style is a mixture of high-reaching acrobatic maneuvers and deadly stings. The offensive techniques center around stabbing or piercing to incapacitate their opponent; a single technique exists as a concluding blow.

Imperturbable Lash: Daytime Shadow - The demon-slayers eyes become hyper fixated on the movement of their enemies. While in this state, their eyes become near-blind towards anything that is not in motion. However, this technique has enough accuracy to pluck a fly from the air as if it were still in time. Once a target is locked, the demon slayer lashes violently with their sword to deal a decisive strike.

Leap of the Salamander: Lilypad Stairwell - With two feet planted into the ground, the demon slayer takes a high leap upwards. They can then perform up to two more subsequent bounds for more altitude—as if Lilypads were underfoot. The final act is a mid-air push in the desired trajectory before unfurling a magnitude of stings.

Leap of the Salamander: Murky Veil - A surge of dashes takes the demon slayer into the sky. To the unperceptive, it would appear as if they vanished in time. In truth, they are quickly bounding and away from their enemy's sight. The demon slayer then gets low to the ground, like a frog peaking from the waters. Finally, a quick pierce sunders towards the target's midsection.


Background: "Acrobatics, fire-breathing, contortionist, and even a real-life demon! You can find it all and more at the Requiem Big Top!" The circus troupe was not shy about advertising their most unique attraction—a real-life demon by the name of Hori Shigeo. It was a peaceful demon outwardly; he was more than willing to entertain humans, come the troupes night shows. Gigantic and vibrant, the lavender big top would move from village to village. It was dangerous to stay in one place, considering their most contentious attraction. Frequently, they escaped by a hair while a small army of angry villagers advanced behind them.

Parents, as far as the troupe was concerned, were not a thing. Everyone was a participant in the prosperity of their young; Naguwa was not sure if he was one of their children or if he came from some abandoned basket. Ultimately, it was a meager footnote in his life that was never of concern for him. From birth, every new member of the troupe must find their 'lifepath'—what they will do to provide for the Requiem Big Top. Naguwa did not participate in traditional classes; his education involved getting a taste of all the circus' main acts. In particular, he was talented when it came to acrobatics, less so when it came to contortion. The most compelling of his lifepaths came from the tutorage of their local strongman: Oshita Ren.

Were he just a normal strongman, it would hardly be worth the ticket. Instead, Oshita displayed obscene amounts of strength that did not befit his frame. His prize act involved the splitting of a boulder with nothing but a butter knife. Oshita attributed his brawn to an old breathing technique. Naguwa never grasped the science of the technique, but he was a quick study as far as using it went. Naguwa took a different approach than Oshita, using the boost in vigor to enhance agility instead of strength.

Naguwa was privy of Hori's dietary habits—it was a hard secret to hide. On occasion, the troupe had to deal with hecklers or even thieves. The crimes against the troupe relaxed their sense of morality enough to allow Hori's propensities. They had to keep their demon fed somehow; the hefty amount of coin helped as well. Never far from their tail, Naguwa noticed that darkly clothed people frequently attended their performances. But, they never ended up staying for more than one show. Whenever the fellows were around, both Hori and Oshita looked like they were on edge—their performances lackluster.

One night, Naguwa shot awake by a cacophony of noise. Oshita was fast in ushering him away from the Big Top with the others. Due to his poor vision in the dark, Naguwa only saw an orange Haori in the chaos. The group gathered in a forest outing, away from their home. Naguwa was fast to notice that only one member of their party was missing: Hori. When day broke, the demon was gone. Hori and Oshita had a shared history, one that Naguwa was not privy to. Oshita provided no answers as to why Hori disappeared for many months until he relented. The strongman gave the boy a map with a black mark, a sword, and not a quip more. With grief dripping from his baritone, Oshita could only say, "Find out yourself."

木戸 桂
Kido Katsura


Hair (Style, Color):
Long, white hair, usually tied into a ponytail.

Eye Design (Pupil Shape, Color, Pattern):
Her eyes have the colouration that most compare to dark, purple amethysts. While usually unexpressive, it is in the fires of combat that they seem to almost light up with ethereal energy.

Any Markings or Accessories:
Beauty mark under her right eye

Haori Design:
Rather than a haori, Katsura often wears a black cloak over her uniform that she styles after a military academy's. Her white undershirt, which she wears to preserve her modesty can occasionally be seen. Ironically, her strange lack of character in her dressing seems to give her her own unique style...

Leg Wrappings:
Plain, white wrappings for comfort, and ease.

Footwear:
Black, military dress shoes

Personality in a Sentence:
Katsura appears to be the demure, strict, military lady, and presents herself as such, until she is thrown into the heat of battle, where she loses all sense of self-control, and craves the thrill of combat with mad passion that burns with her blade.

Current Main Breathing Technique:
Flame Breathing

Background (Doesn't have to be long, should include reason for being a Demon Slayer, training before Final Selection, etc.):
The Kido family are a proud, noble family whose roots are deeply buried in the military. Their repute has been carved out from their exploits as tacticians and commanders, and Katsura, being the only child at the time, was raised on the values and practices that their family held dear. Trained from youth to be a commander, she was set to pursue a life of studying military tactics, and a life of combat, and then comfort. Katsura followed her family’s wishes, unquestioningly. After all, this was the only right thing to do. Even as years passed, and she developed a certain love for clashing blades with her fellow peers, she did not complain. Her place, in her heart, was in the heat of battle, relishing in the chaos and heat of war, but her place, to her family, was in the backlines, commanding, and issuing orders, understanding supply lines and how to best hold a fortified position. Her family was proud of her, and that was enough for her. Even if it meant unhappiness, she was to serve her family as best as she can.

Then came the birth of her younger brother, Kogoro. When they raised him up to be her replacement, her family worried that she would take umbrage at this. The truth could not be any further from that. When her father revealed to her, anxiously, that he would be the heir to their family’s name, and she would be, at best, second-in-command, she could not feel any more free. Freed from the chains of duty, the girl, 15 then, roared with joy, laughed with mad glee, and cheered with abandon. She was free. She could pursue whatever she wanted to do. Her mad love for combat reared its head, and she, announcing that she was to find herself in tests of combat, left the Kido family behind, setting off to build her strength and ability as a swordswoman.

Most of her opponents had been human, and while she accumulated a number of losses against more skilled adults, she could safely boast that she could best an almost equal number of them. A Demon, however, was a completely different thing. Her misfortune led her to encounter one such creature. Though she danced her dance, and fought her fight, her blade could not ever land a mortal blow on such an enemy. The knowledge thrilled her, however. To know that such a creature existed, to know that there were things out there beyond mortal ability to kill, sparked something in her heart. That spark turned into a raging fire when a Slayer stepped in, and, with a few powerful strikes, like an all-destroying fire, eradicated the beast. That was it. This was it. Her heart sang with joy, having found her path. To strike down those above humanity was her calling. Picking up her broken blade, she insisted that her saviour teach her his ways. Though initially put off by her bloodthirst, she eventually came to see that Katsura was a perfect weapon to be used against the hordes of Demons. Her intent was to destroy and kill, and she would not balk at orders given from above. So, her master took her in under her wing.

Battle was Katsura’s love, and while she didn’t truly master the Flame Breathing Techniques, she came to develop her own unique brands, and, for some reason, it was enough for her master to send her to take the Final Selection. Her master knew that Katsura would never grow, just training. Her growth came from real battle, and her fire would grow ever more, if she were to become a real Slayer. Whether she would pass the Final Selection, however, she left it to Katsura’s own discretion.

Any Quirks?:
Despite being trained in Flame Breathing, Katsura is a little bit of an oddball, using firearms to gain an upper hand, and gunpowder to augment the already physically overwhelming strength of Flame Breathing techniques.

Nichirin Blade Color:
Dark purple.
