Character Template Name: Zachary Duncan Actual Age: 21 Visual Age: 21 Nickname/Alias: Gender: Male Race: Human Allegiance: Solo Influence: 0 Appearance: Zachary stands relaxed and comfortable at roughly 5'11". He bears bright blue eyes framed by a pair of regular old glasses and light brown hair, kept short and usually combed to one side. His attire is simple at best, he wears normal t-shirts and blue jeans, typically ripped and shredded from travel and work. He can often be seen in an apron while helping out in kitchens and churches through his travels. On his feet he normally wears regular old tennis shoes but may change them based on the area he currently resides. Around his neck he is always wearing a rosary, bearing on it two crucifix. From crucifix to each bead it is made with oak, blending in well with his very bland and inornate attire. However the second rosary is made of a fine coral, bearing a pale reddish pink hue. He typically bears a bright smile on his face, seemingly unaware of the tragedy this world holds or that anything should ever be wrong. Personality: Zachary is a kind and benevolent young man. He is a devout follower of the Christian faith, believing in higher purpose for all events. He lives without a home and instead uses all of the resources allotted to him for the betterment of others. He travels to wherever God and the wind will take him, wether to a new town or new continent. He finds himself often working in soup kitchens, churches, or local temples to help the community he happens to find. And sometime after simply leaves, off to find the next place he may be used for the glory of God and to the aide of those with less fortune. His interests are mainly music, study of holy texts, and aiding others. He is open and free with people but will often remain quiet until his words are needed. The few things that anger him are injustices among people and the mistreatment of children and women. He will intervene in situations like that with no thought or care for his own well being. History: Zachary was raised in a sweet southern home, brought up in the church by his grandmother. He led a normal life throughout going to school and spending his days in church, helping people in his community whenever time permitted. The only odd thing about him was his ability to see spirits and communicate with them. At first he thought nothing of it and would speak with the spirits he met with no caution. In his youngest years it was easily dismissed at a wild imagination, but as he grew older it became clear that this made people around him very uncomfortable. His grandmother told him that he clearly had some gift, that this was a way for God to use him for His glory. However, while definitely not something to be ashamed of, it was something to be careful about when around large groups. It took him awhile to figure how to effectively distinct spirit from regular human, and exactly how to communicate without being seen. But he always knew he was born to help these spirits and he was diligent in learning how to do so without being thrown away as a crazy. Around the time that he was 15 he found the spirit of a young child that seemed to need his help. He got the spirit to meet up with him in a less crowded area so that he could freely speak with it. After speaking with the child spirit and consoling it’s worries a grave feeling came over him. He was jumped by a young girl his age, accusing him of speaking to someone. He instantly tried to tell her she was wrong, that there was no way he was talking to thin air, he was just talking some stuff out to himself. To his bewilderment she slapped him and reprimanded him for lying to her. She knew he was talking to that young spirit and she wanted to know why. He was shocked. Someone else that could see them? He was relieved but scared all the same. He had never met someone else like this, and to be a girl his age as well? He just stared at her for a moment. Again he felt a slap on the face. A smile cracked and he told her that he felt called to help the spirits he came across. She grinned and then let out a large laugh. The rest was history. The girl was Rose Kendler, a young girl born to a family of Quincy. Hers was a church family as well and the two became the best of friends. Inseparable from the fateful day that he slipped up and let someone know his secret. As they went through high school the two became engrossed in music going to see local bands and shows whenever and wherever they could. With Roses family Zachary trained to heighten his natural spirit control becoming able to see more into the Nightlands. He learned of what the family of Quincy did with their powers, fending off Hollows to protect and aid the spirits that wander the earth. Zachary learned many things from Rose and her family. Rose loved to cook and Zachary spent time with her, learning the things she knew. She often volunteered at soup kitchens using her talents to help the living. From her family he learned to wield the sword, and how to focus his reiatsu to protect himself and others. However he was never quite the warrior others were, even Rose. On her nineteenth birthday he bought her a rosary made of coral. It was her favorite gem and she cherished it, always holding it close. The two were like siblings, close as blood, and nothing could tear them apart. Except for the summer night that changed his life completely. Rose and a squad of Quincy went out one night to hunt down some Hollow that were causing trouble in a town not far from theirs. A large battle broke out and things turned nasty for the Quincy squad. Only one returned home, the others had disappeared not the found. Rose was among the missing and was presumed dead. Upon hearing the news Zachary shed his tears, and walked out of the home. Rose’s mother approached him, handing over the coral crucifix from his gift to her weeks earlier. With it he walked off. He gathered up all of his possessions and sold it all, aside from his clothes, a bible, the sword from Rose’s family, and the coral crucifix affixed to his own rosary. From there he traveled to wherever the wind would guide. Helping out wherever he ended up, only to leave sometime after and help another group later. His family and friends saw it as some grief stricken action. Just a way to run away in his hurt. However this wasn’t his intention at all. It was a calling. A calling to serve others. Rose might think him crazy to try to help everyone but she would have been right next to him if she was still around. It was what he was meant for. Equipment: Items:
Combat: Whilst in the heat of combat Zachary isn’t the most durable of pugilists nor the fragile spiritualist that hangs in the back lines hoping to never be hit. He spends his time trying to protect those around him, otherwise he avoids battle. He is a balanced combatant, intent on being flexible enough to help out any person in need and to compliment any ally. If he were to have a focus it would be his supportive kidou. Focusing reiatsu to bolster his allies or to give them increased potency against the enemies he fights. He changes between melee with his katana and ranged with kidou to fit the need and to best augment the person he is fighting alongside. If alone he will do his best to pick his position based purely off the enemy. A master of no particular trade he sees combat as just another place to make others lives easier. Weapon: He carries a simple katana with him to fight in close range and to parry off attacks. But his spiritual focus is the rosary around his neck. When in combat he takes it off his neck and wraps it around his left hand, the two crucifix resting in his extended palm. From this medium he channels reiatsu into the form of a cross in front of his hand with a circle around it, making an almost reticle appearance to the manifestation. From this cross he channels reiatsu to cast kidou, whether to fire at an enemy or to send aid to an ally. His attacks against foes tend to be rather average, intended mainly to mark the foe with reiatsu that can be utilized by another attack, predominantly from an ally, to weaken the target or bolster the ally. Abilities: From his cross medium he fires bolt kidou that will mark the target to be followed up on by an ally. He also uses the cross to form reiatsu around allies to strengthen them in combat and protect them from danger. With his sword he performs basic swings to set him up for mobile combat. Constantly ready to switch between melee and ranged combat for the needs of others.
