Azaiah Kashikoi

 

 NICKNAME Iah bye classmates and the Info-Broker by upperclassmen

 AGE 15
 BIRTHDAY Oct. 13

 SPECIES Human
 ETHNICITY he has a Japanese heritage but he's a Canadian citizen, he and his family are Christians by religion

 GENDER Male
 SEXUALITY He doesn't really care about having a Girlfriend/Boyfriend but he considers himself Bisexual

 DORM Pyxis suits him best

 POWER At age eight Azaiah found out about his power through it being surfaced by strong emotions of horror, terror, anger, and sadness. These emotions were released one day when he found a military draft for his father on his study's desk. When he found out all these emotions flooded him causing the shadows around him to pulsate and writhe with life, all the shadows crowded towards him and lashed out like tendrils or whips. During this his father tried to stop him but ended up severely injured, and soon after Azaiah fainted.



When Azaiah goes to school his power first consists of shrouding himself in shadows to be hidden from other's vision, hardening the shadows around him into tendrils or whips which at that time, he can barely control due to the shadows seeming to have their own mind, and making string shadows which he plans to use to latch onto others and control their limbs (like I said, he doesn't have full control of his shadows). Along with his power he masters the use of dual Karambit knives which have white handles and black blades which are engraved with glowing white letters that read 'The son of Chaos and Shadows shall hold these blades and, with them, carve through his enemies and sacrifice their blood in honor of his ancestors' this is written in the Shadow Language on one blade and Latten on the other.



Further into his senior grades he can control his shadows and create shadow beasts based off real animals, after about a mile these beasts will dissipate or go off on their own and create their own havoc. He uses these shadow-creatures to help with gathering information, and, of course, help in battles.



When he's about graduate he can create his own shadow beasts based off his imagination, and he can use shadows to wrap around his limbs and muscles to help strengthen them, his shadow-beast's control range would have also grown to about two miles.



When he's staff level he can create bigger monsters, and turn into a man-made shadow demon, in previous years this ability shows itself in times of great stress, and during his transformation back then he can't control it and after about two minutes he faints and almost dies due to energy drain. When he's staff-level he can fully control this transformation. This is the max of his powers.

 APPEARANCE Azaiah’s Jawline is quite delict-looking, coupled with his swimmer-like build he looks almost feminine. Side-effects of his power make him basically an albino, though his eyes are a frost-white and have constant dark bags under them. his whole posture radiates weariness.

His hair is cut choppy as with his own blades and his body is riddled with scars, one prominent one is on his face and its scar has the likeness of an unnaturally large grin, along with this scar on his face he has two that cut vertically on his eyes, like that of a clown or mime's makeup, but with scars. He has a brand at the base of his neck on the back, these scars are very obvious and read 'Spawn of Shadows' in the, well, Shadow Language. Along with this brand his back is tattooed with two, black angel wings facing downwards and starting at his shoulders, a tattooed, black ribbon wraps around the left wing and reads 'Prince of Darkness' in Latten. He hides all open skin, other than his eyes, with bandages, even having a thin layer covering his hands and feet, this is partially due to the nature of his powers, and partially to cover his scars.



His clothing consists of and solid color of tee-shirts and jeans (except neon), and a black hoodie. The hoodie has an image on its back (two, large solid red eyes, an unnatural scarlet grin, and a dark red snake tongue.) and two deep red devil horns on top the hood. the cowl of the sweater is deep, and shrouds half of his face in shadows, leaving only his white eyes visible, which seem to almost glow. He only puts his hood up when it's sunny out or maybe in a hospital, if the lights are harsh enough. This is due to his eye's sensitivity to sunlight and bright lights. He also often has his Smartphone and Bluetooth headphones and almost constantly has his silvery backpack with him with loads of back-up Dr. Peppers and his Cheshire Cat-face wallet.

His Karambit knives are always holstered and hidden under his jacket in two, black leather holsters, with the writing copying the blade in white.

 PERSONALITY Azaiah, at first, loves to antagonize others, and spreads rumors to spark a fight. When he's just getting used to a group, he studies them, their personality, and their reactions to specific circumstances, slowly beginning to start a profile of them to store away in his Mind-Palace for later use. this is due to his amazing memory, his ability to observe and apply that observation in the future, and his attention to detail. He often tries to sleep away classes, much to the teacher's disapproval, because he thinks that that lesson is unnecessary, also because of his Insomnia.



He often has some quirky moments, like how he always pulls out a Dr. Pepper from his back pack at whatever time and buys teriyaki beef jerky whenever he can. Sometimes, if his Insomnia is bad enough, He’ll fall asleep while in the middle of something, be it when he’s walking down the halls or working on a project.



When he gets closer to the class/group his antics lessen to just snide remarks here and there, but when he gets into an argument he thinks is worth it, he beats down his opponent with intelligent wording. His IQ numbers at 143, so he's close to a genius, this shows in arguments, debates, and in class, even though he comes off as a ditcher at first.



When he has close friends he shows a bit more emotion, and, unless his friends need to get off they're high horse, stands up for them in arguments/rumors and quickly ends them. He allows himself to become more open and fights better if his team consists of friends.



In battle he often sends verbal jabs at his opponent(s) to anger them, which lets him use his abilities in a better fashion, and helps him have time to plan. All his attacks are carefully plotted out, even id on the outside they seem idiotic or foolish. When he has a team, he usually acts as support unless his enemy(s) are weak against him. He often acts as the planner of the team, and often his plans work out.



When Azaiah is with clients he is cool, composed, and calculated, asking questions to better help them. he never betrays clients and has a strong code when it comes to work, often completing his missions to perfection.

 WEAKNESSES His albino-like complexion is a side-effect of his power, it makes him prone to sunburn and makes his eyes hyper-sensitive to hash light and sunlight. This isn't helped by the fact that is greatest weakness is sunlight. Sunlight, if it touches enough of his skin, drains him, and if it's in high concentrations and focused on one spot, it can burn him, not sunburn-burn, I mean it can turn him to ashes, and if the light is angelic, this is worsened. When he first got his powers, it didn't affect him nearly as much, but as his powers grow, so does this one weakness, like a constant safety-guard. Also, if he's in a brightly-lit room he doesn't have as many shadows to control, and if the room is void of shadows due to light, his powers are rendered null, his own shadows also grow more transparent in that type of room, which makes his shadows weaker.

In terms of Classes he’s weakest in Poetry, History (he sleeps through that) and Physical education (Due to how tiered he is and the fact that he’s quite lazy). He’s also a bit socially awkward and declares himself lactose-intolerant (he isn’t diagnosed with it). He’s slightly obsessed with ravens and you can always bribe him with beef jerky (preferably teriyaki) and Dr. Pepper. Note he absolutely hates Root Beer and any crush soda.

Another drawback of his power is that the shadows of objects weigh as much as the physical objects, this doesn't count when it comes to his own shadow and the shadows of walls and such. When it's night, this drawback is rendered null.

If Azaiah uses his powers too much they drain his energy, due to the fact that darkness is associated with sleeping. This tricks the brain into producing an excess of melatonin, it also gives him terrifying nightmares about twisted demonic shadows that torture him. Another drawback specifically targets shadow-travel and shadow-shrouding. If he uses these two powers for too long, he can slowly become a shadow himself, never able to go back to being a human. The time limit for shadow travel is one day, for shadow-shrouding, it is one hour, these time limits grow the stronger he becomes with his power. The max time is a week (Shadow-Travel) and two days(Shadow-Shrouding).

 STRENGTHS Azaiah is strongest at night and in dimly-lit rooms. When it's night, he practically relies on instinct, which is stronger than planning every action, also at night he can't get hit by physical objects, they just phase through him in a gust of shadows, during this power-high the only physical objects that can hit him are sterling silver and holy powers. Another strength is against light, if it's lesser then his power, and even a small amount of flames (His shadows become like a inky black fog, smothering the flame. Demonic powers are also weak against him, due to the fact shadows and night are often associated with 'evil'. He can also strengthen demonic powers if he wishes. These facts also apply to were-beasts, vampires, and other creatures of the night.

 HISTORY After the incident that happened when Azaiah was eight, he slowly began practicing his power, strengthening it and learning weaknesses, though he learned his strongest weakness the hard way. One day, when Azaiah was 10, he finally decided to go outside after months of staying in the house, he had no protection (See appearance). as he stepped out into a bright and sunny day, he immediately began to smoke, the pain didn't hit until it had already been a minute. Along with this he could barely see, everything was too bright, shining as if he were in the presence of an angelic beast. After his mother finally saved him he was covered in bandages and rendered blind for a straight week. After this new incident he made sure to constantly wear some kind of eye protection and made sure to keep any bare skin wrapped in bandages.



The story behind his scars is a dark one. After a mafia made up of cruel magical beings caught wind of his powers, they made to capture him, and they succeeded. He spent half a year trapped in a dingy basement, left to the whims of a psychotic man who was overly obsessed with clowns (He got a phobia of clowns after he was saved). They tortured him because he refused to join their group in honor of his father. After that trauma-inducing occasion he was saved by the special-forces police after his mother sent in a missing person’s report.



The brand he had at the base of his neck is another, slightly unpleasant occurrence. Oddly, this had happened in a dream, he was confronted by a massive shadow that said she was the reason he had his powers, due to the fact that his parent’s powers were nothing like his it made sense. The massive shadowy entity said she was the queen of the shadow realm, and he was special. To his disappointment she didn't elaborate. She stated he needed to be marked as a harbinger of her darkness, he was confused at first, but after he felt an intense burning at the base of his neck and the smell of melting flesh, he obviously knew what she meant. he woke up with the brand 'Shadow Spawn' in the morning.



When he was thirteen he ran away from home, due to the fact that his father had become MIA at the front lines, before this he had only visited on Christmas and sent letters to him only on his birthdays. Azaiah had soon established his position in the underworld and due to his high IQ he could handle it. he became a well-known Info-Broker and had gotten the title 'Prince of Darkness' this was purely the doings of the many Underworld mafias and he often had to deal with people confronting him on the title, to which he explained 'Was purely a title given by over exuberant clients, and he wasn't the true Prince of Darkness'.



When he was fourteen he decided to get the tattoo on his back, saying he often thought of himself as a fallen angel. The writing 'Prince of Darkness' was due to his title in the underworld. He decided to go back home and check on his mother, sadly, he found her dead via overdose. In her limp grasp was a certificate to Foresta Academy. His parents had gone there when they were his age, he knew his father and mother would've wanted him to go, and in honor of their memory, he did indeed go after another year in the underground. He had buried his mother previously, and had requested an honorary burial for his father too, since he had been MIA for four years now.



He did soon find the Academy he was looking for, due to a pulling sensation in a specific direction. he hitched a ride with boats over half a year who were headed in the same direction. They had come to an island and he'd requested they let him board of there, the fishermen had shrugged and muttered something about him being crazy, and left him with a few supplies.

 IN CHARACTER SAMPLE Azaiah trudged through the thick woods, swatting at bugs absentmindedly.



"What kind of sick joke did this academy decide to pull on new students, I didn't even bring some damn bug-spray, jerks", He suddenly jumped back, startled as a loud squawk sounded above him, and clutched a hand on his chest. Confirming it was a bird he took in some deep breaths to calm himself.



"Dumb birds", he huffed. A chorus of squawks sounded above him as feathered demon-beasts swooped down at him in anger, causing him to try and swat them away, which, of course, did absolutely nothing other than gain him a few nips on the fingers. Fed up with it all, Azaiah drew a decent amount of shadows around him, and let them go wild. The tendrils of darkness flailed around as if they had minds of their own, some even striking their summoner's face. In a matter of minutes, the creatures were all torn to shreds, blood glinting no the underbrush. The almost-albino wiped as much of the sticky, red fluids as he could off his jacket, and let the shadows retreat back to their natural positions.



"Like I said, Dumb birds", he huffed, and with that he put on his headphones and listened to his favorite playlist. Calmly humming along with the tune as he continued on his journey to find his parent's old Academy and sipping a cold bottle of Dr. Pepper.
