[Character Name] Ishiro Tanaka [Type] lizard Character Name: Ishiro Tanaka Age: 100 (looks 20) Gender: Male Type: Lizard Partnered?No Image: If applicable. (working on it) Clothing and description: He is a tiny, 2 foot long lizard from snout to tail tip, and weighs around 30 ounces, with a long thin, gecko-esk body. He is a dark gray color, with fine smooth scales. His tail takes up most of his body, and turns up slightly at the end. There are 3 rows of spikes that fall down his back from the crown of his head, each a rich white against his dark color. His large eyes are a deep orange/yellow and look like a sunset. On each side of his head are 3 silver loops pierced though his skin, and on his front claws finger-less gloves. Ishiro Tanaka Stands at, easily, 6 feet tall, and weighs in at around 180 pounds. His eyes, set firm, are a light orange/yellow. His skin is a deep rich tan from a light white skin, very smooth, and soft like his scales. Just as in his lizard form he had 3 loop earrings in each ear, and finger-less gloves on his hands. His thick black hair is cut short, and 3 short fo-hawks that lead to his neck. From the back of his neck, leading down the middle of his back are 3 rows of small spikes starting at half an inch, and reaching their longest point at 2'' just under his shoulder blades then shrink again. the only part of him with scales is on both of his forearms, and hands. Each finger is also tipped with a claw. He does not wear much clothing. In fact he almost never wears a shirt when he does it is usually an open chest vest of some sort, and usually has on a pair of old blue jeans tied on with a rope that drags behind him and curls up like a tail, and walks around barefoot, each toe also tipped with a claw. He is also known on occasion to wear a thin cloth face mask over his mouth with the design of an open lizard mouth full of sharp teeth on it, usually this is warn into battle. History: !00 years ago Ishiro was born and made the familiar of a very evil witch. Her name was Tsunami Torrade. She was the worst known witch in all of Japan, and Ishiro was her faithful little thrall of a pet. At this time he had no magical powers, and was used by Tsunami to keep watch on her enemies. She had no honor, when she was threatened she would use her magic to strike down her opponent before they even knew what was happening. She was horrible. When not backstabbing supposed allies, or destroying enemies, she would experiment. She loved to do this and often did it on Ishiro. After many years together, world war II began. Tsunami took this chance to spread her evil, and moved to an island near by Japan to do more work. She scrambled airwaves, messed with armies' orders, and in confusions would take out entire squads of ships. 66 years ago while Tsunami was... playing with Ishiro again with an experiment to make him more useful to her something happened. The Americans had enough with her, and dropped a Nuke down upon her lair. The resulting explosion killed her, and destroyed most of her work, but Ishiro had survived. He did more than survive, the explosion mixed with the experiment that Tsunami had been doing to him had changed him, but he was badly hurt, and fell asleep, and the tides washed him away into the ocean. he slept for years, and the ocean's tides moved him very far in the time he slept, from japan he was washed all the way to the coast of California. When he awoke he was in a new land, and a new decade. He was asleep for 30 years, and when he crawled from under the sand he was berried in on the beach he realized he was free. The feeling of the witches will over him was gone, and he could express himself how he wished too. He wanted to return his honor, and fight for good, making up for all the evil he was used for in the past bu his old master. The beach, when he actually looked, he noticed was covered in young Americans dressed in very colorful clothing, and smoking, dancing, having much fun. He reached out towards them and noticed that he looked different. He had the hand of a human, and the arm. and the body of one. He freaked out, and someone noticed. A girl, she had long blond hair tied into many braids, and wore a very loose fitting blouse, with a pair of jeans. She came over to Ishiro and helped him up. Cleaned him up, and gave him some pants to wear. This woman was his first human friend, and the person who helped him blend into society. He spent the next decade or so moving around with her, and her group of piece loving partners, and they started to move east. Living like every other youth in america. He did things that today he might regret but would never change for the world. He did do drugs, and participated in many other activities frowned upon. Things moved to the 80's and he once again moved with the times, picking up the style he picked up spiking his hair, and openly speaking his mind. After the 80's he mellowed out much like the rest of the country. This was around the time he honestly noticed the changes in his friend. She was getting older, but he haden't aged at all... He confronted her, and told her that he had to leave. She understood, and told him to be safe, and to be himself. So Ishiro moved on. He started to travel west. Every once in a while he would stop, and go to bars, staying there for a time, usually these were fighting bars, where he would only fight to raise money to move on. One time during a match in a bar something went wrong. His opponent Changed before his eyes into a monster, a Kishin egg. From no where these two kids burst in, a bright light flashed and one of them changed into a large sword weilded by the other one. In just a few moments the kids took care of the monster before him. After the match ishiro confronted the kids and asked them who they were. They told him about themselves, the Kishin, and Shibusin. He finally realized that this was his chance to right the wrongs of his past and went with the chidren. He rang in the new year, and new millinia at the school, his new home. He gets to work right away learning about everything the school had to offer. before he started on a mission he stopped.... he felt off. He didn't feel like it was his time to start yet for a few years. Then it hit him and then he was ready. Personality: Ishiro is Honorable... Or at least he tries. After serving under the witch Tsunami for so many years he sometimes has trouble figuring out what the honorable thing is to do. He tries his best to be a good guy. If approached by someone he is quite open and friendly, though he is hardly ever approached by anyone while in lizard form, and he is usually overlooked by many passerbys. When in combat he cant help but to sometimes play dirty, but many of the bad things he does are unintentional. He has a goal though, to become as strong a force of good as he old master was a force of evil, and help in any way he can. after being reawakened in the 70's he has grown a slightly perverse attitude, and flirts with any woman he finds attractive. he is also very laid back when he feels he deserves it. After many years at Shibusen he has learned almost all of it's inner workings. He has used this information to help himself in progressing in his goals. When Ishiro is presented with a problem that he does not need to face right away he takes all the time he needs to examine it, plot out all possible paths, and takes the one best suited to him. On the other hand of he needs to make a quick decision, he doesn't think at all and reacts purely on his natural instincts. When approached in his lizard form right away it is easy to tell he is abnormal, he does not run away. Instead as both a lizard and a man he stands his ground, and looks whom-ever it is that approached him in the eye, to the best of his extent. He spends most of his time now at the school sitting around as a lizard in the mission hall, watching people, studying them, trying to read them. Abilities: Ishiro is an odd case. He is or claims to be nothing but a normal lizard that happened to gain special abilities. being able to change from a tiny little lizard, who can speak, into a full grown man, and he is able to camouflage himself in both of his forms. Technique Name: Lizard form. Effects/Description: This is the form that Ishiro is most accustomed to. When not in his human form he is in this one, a small horned lizard able of camouflage, and other normal lizard abilities. Technique Name: Human form. Effects/Description: This is Ishiro's secondary form, and the one he uses for combat. While in this form he is still able to camouflage himself. Technique Name: Camouflage Effects/Description: At this early stage Ishiro's Camouflage is able to make his physical body able to blend in with his surroundings perfectly, that is all, he is still able to be heard, smelled, and his soul is still able to be seen with ability to see souls. Combat Style: While fighting Ishiro fights using boxing/kickboxing. Close up fighting, he tries to get in, and move fast. He gets in a lot of fast punches, followed by hard kicks. When i needs to, usually when working with others he will get in close to the opponent to distract. While he knows how to fight he is not too skilled at it, and mostly will dodge to tire opponents out. Miscellaneous Information: He is a lizard, and likes to eat bugs in BOTH forms... Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Roleplay Sample: "AHHHH!~ Wonderful I love the sun!!!" Ishiro sighed happily as he laid on the smooth surface of a rooftop in Death City. It was just hitting noon, and the laughing sun was at it's peek in the sky, shining its light directly down upon the city. The lizard lay comfortably, his limbs spread out under him, his scales taking in the hot sunlight. It was perfect. The light reflected off of Ishiro's 6 silver hoops as his mouth opened in a yawn, and his long tongue licked around his face. "Hmmm.... I shoud probably do something today, instead of just laying here in this prefect, hot, spot...." He mumbled and rolled over showing his underbelly to the sky. "This. is. LOVE" "OI!!!! GIVE THAT BACK!" A female voice rang out below, steering Ishiro from his comfortable spot. He stretched his legs and skittered over to the side of the rooftop to look down at the streets below. Way below a teenage girl was running, following what looked to be three teenage boys running one of them holding a pink hat in their hand. Ishiro narrowed his eyes, and if a lizard could growl he would have, as well as his (Pupil)s dilating. He quickly started to crawl down the side fo the building, doing at an angle, as to follow the teenagers. Once he was in range he jumped form the building side, and landed on the head of the boy with the hat. "WHAT THE?" The boy said in shock and stopped. Ishiro used this moment to jump onto the hat, and change into his human form, where he now towered over the boys. They all stopped and looked at him, the hat now in his hand. "Now, that is no way to treet a lady." The young girl finally caught up and stopped, panting from being tired. She looked up and gasped at the shirtless bronze skinned man holding her hat now. He smiled at her, and took a few steps forward, the boys ran. HE leaned forward, and held the hat out to the now blushing girl. "Here you go.." "t-thank you" She managed to say, and took her hat. "It was nothing for a cute girl" he said and winked. She blushed, bowed, thanked him and ran off. Edited by The House, Jul 28 2011, 05:23 AM.

Yoiii Koffy :3 You've got an interesting character here ^^ At the moment I see Ishiro as a male witch, as he has all of the markings of one :3 With this in mind he cannot be part of Shibusen- it is just unfair on the regular meisters for there to be the more powerful witch-meisters too @-@ However! I would let this one slip through if his only ability is lizard/human and camouflage. That would mean you could keep the anthro, the Shibusen and still be on par with other starting characters. Thoughts? |

OK, I can handle not having the other things. I can find ways to get things like that later. Question, what about the wall crawling? any maybe still have him heal faster in lizard form? just not as fast as i had it listed? Edited by The House, Jul 9 2011, 05:22 AM.

:3 You can choose lizard-healing or camoflague or climb/burrow Whichever you might enjoy the most for the character.Basically I want him to have limited abilities so he is only as strong as a starting meister. I want to downgrade Ishiro from 'lizard witch & meister' to 'meister with lizard powers.' If you're not okay with that, let me know now? I am sure we can work something out.

Okay~~~ Let's get the real modding started ![]() Description: You've made a good start on his lizard form, but could you go into more detail? :3 I just can't quite picture what he looks like as a general body shape. Eg: Is he roughly chameolon, gecko, goanna or skink shaped? :3 What does his face mask look like? :o History: You've done a swell job here However, his history seems to stop 40 years ago, when he joined Shibusen. Could you pump us with some details of his recent history? Personality: I'd love it if you could get into the nitty gritty of Ishiro's personality :3 You've done a good job of 'broad brushstroking' his personality, but I really enjoy it when people start to delve into the finer detail. For instance- He has been around for 100 years, and has been at Shibusen for 40! Has this had an impact on him~? Abilities: Could you read through this and remove the traces of his previous powers? :3 You might want to also mention he can talk as a lizard- because if it is not mentioned in his profile when it gets approved, you would have to wait until a training thread to unlock his ability to speak! Combat Style: I can see that you've given him a distinctive and unique style of fighting I've done a bit of research into those arts, but could you describe them so anyone who read the profile could understand how he fights? eg: Tell us how he might enter combat, what he likes to do, and how he likes to do it.General:[/u] Could you perhaps remove some of your ellipses? (...=ellipses) They can be great to use for dramatic effect, but if they are overused the effect is gone

You've done a pretty good job on fixing things up Could you perhaps go into a tad more detail for his history? Most of his life is in those last 40 years, but it sounds like nothing has happened @_@ Perhaps he could be more recent to Shibusen, if you don't want to fill in his history and change his hibernation from 30 to 70 years or something? Alternatively, you could fill in his history a bit more :3 It is a great chance to show off your character's skills, and how he gained them. It can also be a good way to show off how he gained his personality, or how he tends to act~ :3 Have fun with it! |
