[Akira Sengo][Weapon] Character Name: Akira Sengo. Some shorten it to Kira, which he is rather apathetic about. Age: 17 Gender: Male Type: Demon Weapon Partnered? No Image: ![]() 1 2 3 Weapon Form Clothing and description: Akira is five foot, eleven inches tall, and he weighs one hundred and forty-three pounds. He has a slender build, and has a slightly toned musculature, mostly from the exercises, yoga, and tai-chi his uncle made him do daily to build strength and stamina, and to keep the madness at bay. Akira's hair is a shaggy medium length, and is blue in color. It's sloppily parted to the right, and the larger part typically falls over his right eye. His eyes are almond-ish in shape, and are colored a cloudy grey. He s Japanese so his skin has a yellow tint to it, and he is quite pale, as he doesn't tan easily. When it comes to clothing, he isn't very picky or concerned with style. When at school, he wears a standard Shibusen uniform. Outside the classroom, he typically sticks with long sleeve tee shirts and jeans. He tends to favor the colors blue and green, though his closet is filled with many colors, though they are mostly dark shades or white. In Weapon mode, he takes the from of a large two-handed Katana. The blunt side is made of dark grey iron and looks as though it is layered on top of the sharp, blue-silver side. The hilt has gold protectors on both sides, and is covered with black leather, and wrapped with a long blue (same shade as his hair) cloth, and both ends hang down below the hilt. History: When Akira was six years old, his mother, Mizuki Sengo, was raped and killed, and her soul devoured in front of his eyes by an evil weapon. He would never forget the monster that took away his mother. His father Arashi Sengo, a weapon himself, went out to find the killer and avenge his wife's death. Already defeated by a weapon and meister from Shibusen, Arashi was unable to find the monster. After his father's disappearance, Akira was taken in by his uncle, Hiroto Sengo. It was Hiroto that revealed to Akira his ability to become a weapon, and that he and his father were also weapons. Hiroto began to train Akira then, before sending him to Shibusen a few years later. Haunted by the fact that he couldn't save his wife, and he couldn't even avenge her death, Arashi was driven to insanity, and he went on a massacre, killing the innocent and consuming pure souls. One day, Akira snuck into his Uncle's study and watched as he traced the numbers 42 42 564 on a mirror. He listened in horror as his uncle talked to someone named Shinigami-sama about the status of Arashi Sengo, his father. He learned what had become of his father. He also heard something interesting said about 'the curse of the Muramasa line.' He later told his uncle that he had been listening and asked him what 'the curse of the Muramasa line' meant. Hiroto sat him down and told them about their ancestor, Muramasa Sengo, who was a weapon like them, but a curse was put upon him by a witch and he was driven to madness. The curse was passed on to his children and down through the generations, with only a few ever escaping their fate. Hiroto told him that if it wasn't for Shibusen and Shinigami-sama, he would have also fell to the curse. Akira learned that his uncle was a retired Death Scythe, and that the witch's soul that was required to become a Death Scythe is what breaks the curse. Akira made that his goal, to become a Death Scythe so he would not fall into the madness that his father had. When he arrived at Shibusen, he was excited to finally be able to begin the journey towards breaking the curse. Unfortunately, he had a very difficult time finding a meister due to a side affect from the curse. A look at his soul revealed that, like the rest of his family, his soul was wrapped in chains and a lock was placed on it. This keeps meisters from being able to draw out enough of his soul wavelength for the two to be able to resonate. However, he has been able to go on missions with other weapon and meister teams, and has been working with Stein to draw his soul wavelength out and keep the madness the curse generates in check. Personality: Akira is quiet and serious, driven by a secret ambition. At least, that is how he comes off if you do not know him. His friends will tell you that his stern exterior is very different than his true self. With his friends he is sweet and kind, but soft-spoken. Because of the loss of his family, he treats those close to him as if they were family. He has an odd sense of humor, laughing at something he finds funny out of the blue if he's comfortable with the people around him. If he's going to say something funny, it will typically be sarcastic or ironic, though it's often when people aren't expecting it. Akira personifies chivalry. He is courageous, unwavering in the face of most obstacles. His is loyal to those he cares about, true to the end, and he protects his friends, and those that can't protect themselves. He is thoughtful and inquisitive, though can become hot-headed and make rash choices if himself or his friends are threatened. While he is thoughtful, he doesn't spend much time studying, and hasn't ever done well in school. Unfortunately, the curse placed on his family has side affects. He is susceptible to seemingly random mood swings and fits of laughter that come from nowhere. This also makes him very vulnerable to madness, and he has to always be careful to not fall victim to the curse and become a raving maniac like his father. Abilities: Technique Name: Partial Transformation Effects/Description: His right arm, past his elbow, transforms into the blade of his Katana form. Technique Name: Full Transformation Effects/Description: Fully transforms into his Katana form. Combat Style: He can be viscous when in combat himself. Through practice, Akira has become very agile, and specializes in speed, but not to an extraordinary extent. He prefers speed over power, and strikes as much as he can before jumping back, taking a breath, and then going at it again. When being wielded by a Meister, he will act as a voice calmness and strategy. Miscellaneous Information: Things like the character is chronically afraid of cats or some such goes here. Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Roleplay Sample: It was spreading. Akira could feel it in his soul. He wasn't sure how long he could hold off the madness before it spread completely. He got up from the couch he was sitting on and walked slowly to his bedroom. Once inside, he locked the door behind him, and then opened the closet. He sat on the floor of the closet and shut the door. He wasn't sure what it was that drove him to the closet. Maybe he thought it was safe, that the madness wouldn't find him in there. He knew that the idea was ridiculous, but it helped to calm him regardless. He took deep, heavy breathes, trying to calm his soul. And then it came upon. His pupils dilated, and his neck bent back, making him look at the ceiling. He began to laugh ferociously. He could hear the madness calling to him to submit. It was like a lullaby, telling him just to go to sleep. He couldn't give in, he wouldn't give in. He continued his howling laughter, not stopping for seven minutes. He began to feel the madness recede. He had won this battle, and doing so gave him hope that he would be able to hold it off until he could collect a witch's soul. His will had been reinforced. He wasn't going to give in. Edited by Orion, Apr 8 2011, 05:10 AM.

Hi there, this is a well written profile all 'round and I don't have much to say ^__^ For a start could you please tell me more about his density power? You seem to say that by increasing his wavelength emission (something that should really be quite difficult for him, considering the lock on his soul) It both strengthens blows his weapon form would deal, and makes the meister unable to hold him. These are two very separate things - are you saying a meister will never be able to use him if he activates this power? It would be great if you could just explain how it works a little better to make sure it is consistent ^__^ In your strengths and weaknesses you mention he is super agile, but you never really mentioned this anywhere else, and there doesn't seem much of a reason for this. A) could you fit it in somewhere in the profile? and B) does this mean he is also super fast? As I said before this is a great profile. I understand the want to have a dramatic past but I would advise that this is a PG13 board so please don't start describing his 'experience' in too much detail. We have lots of minors who read threads ^__^ |

Okay, I removed the Density shift power. It was a half-developed idea that I thought was cool, and I may still have him develop it later, but you're right that it doesn't really work with the chains. I also added something about his agility to combat style. He is agile and fast, but well within the limits of an ordinary human (or Demon Weapon) in the Soul Eater universe. And lastly, I don't plan to fully describe his gruesome history, it may be referenced, but never explicitly. |
