IC Description: Name: Sakurazuka Seiryuu Alias/Nickname: The Sakurazukamori Age: 17 Gender: Male Race and Level: Vampire: Level A Status: Night Class Student

Appearance: With piercing golden eyes, a chiseled face, a pale complexion, and long silky black hair Seiryu makes a striking impression. Like all vampires, he is physically gorgeous in an almost impossible aristocratic and elegant sort of way. Standing at an even 5 feet 8 inches, and weighing in at 165 lbs he is fit and trim, all toned muscle and easy grace of his movements. His eyes are a light amber gold, accentuating his pale face and black hair. Because of the offset between pale and dark, his eyes are particularly striking, almost as though drawing the attention of those around him to be speared by a piercing gaze that is both restless and intelligent.
Seiryuu has a whip thin build, lean and lithe, and while he does not carry an overly muscular physique; looks are deceiving. As a Pureblood Vampire Seiryu's physical abilities are superhuman in their scope, or perhaps supernatural. Despite the fact that his abilities do not hinge directly on his musculature, Seiryu is anything but a slouch. While he lacks a heavy musculature, he is still tightly honed possessing what some might consider a swimmer's or martial artist's build. Taunt and corded, without excessive bulk. As such, he is as flexible as he is fast, able to not only rely on his own supernatural gifts of strength and speed, but also a level of coordination, agility, and flexibility that enables him to these gifts to their full potential. When coupled with applications of his 'gift', Seiryu is a amazingly proficient combatant.
With a taunt body, corded muscle, perfect vampiric features, and a soft husky voice Seiryuu is the perfect predator. Combining the looks of a model or boy band singer and a trim physique that would be at home on a Greek statue, unreal in its detail and 'perfect' nature.
Due to his supernatural heritage, Seiryu's almost inhumanly perfect features are fully developed and are proportioned as though he were an adult as opposed to a teenager growing out of childhood. This only serves to further accentuate his physical perfection, further adding to his allure.
Personality: Since an early age Seiryu has spent his life being groomed to one day take leadership of the Sakurazuka family holdings, which encompass several legitimate and shadow corporations that dominate the modern world of business. As such, the prospect of protecting the interests and honor of the family has been largely drilled into his being since early childhood. However, like many in such a situation, Seiryu has begun to resent this upbringing and is actively seeking for ways to rebel against the constraints of what many would consider a perfect life.
Due in great part to the focus on preparing to assume such a prestigious place in both the family, and the politics of the Vampire world, Seiryu has led a childhood largely devoid of many childish forms pleasure. As a result he has matured rather quickly and views the world from what many would assume is the point of view of an adult. Due to his rather Spartan upbringing Seiryu has become adept at hiding his feelings behind a perfected laconic mask, always guarded and thinking ahead towards the next ‘move’. Every action he makes or word he speaks is calculated to achieve a desired effect. This mentality, when coupled with his unflinching charisma and confidence, has made Seiryu quite the manipulative charmer.
The great focus upon upholding tradition and bringing honor to his family name has resulted in many years devoted to pursuits not directly connected to the acumen associated with business and peer management. “In order to master the world, one must first master the self.” This was the view passed down from father to son for generations a midst the Sakurazuka. When he was old enough to be sent away for school, Seiryu immersed himself in the world at large, pursuing all manner of interests and fancies that caught his eye. He has a penchant for fast things, especially motorcycles, and has spent several years dedicated towards a dirty little pleasure in the form of martial arts. Most of his kind would consider the human martial arts to be a waste of time, especially for one so lofty as a Pureblood. Yet Seiryu labored to master a sampling of these arts with the belief that the acquired discipline would further serve to hone his focus.
Over the course of 3 years, Seiryu slowly incorporated a diverse mixture of Jeet Kun Do, Western Boxing, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Kyokushin Kaikan, Shōrin-ryū Shidōkan, and Wrestling; combining and discarding elements as needed, before eventually completing his hodge podge of combative arts. Despite this high degree of competency in the martial arts Seiryu prefers to avoid combat whenever possible. Combat itself is wasted effort and resource better spent on finding and exploiting weakness. Rather than rely upon martial skill alone Seiryu has instead chosen to hone and adapt the mastery of tactics, seeking to find advantages to exploit a potential foes weaknesses to better advance the flow of a situation to better benefit his goals. With such a heavy focus on strategy and keen observational skill, coupled with what some might consider a 'photographic muscle memory' Seiryu is capable of observing movements through great focus then adapting those maneuvers and duplicating them effectively. This ability to mimic movement allowed him to master even the most complex fighting styles and maneuvers and in a matter of months.
Deciding to shift his perogitive, Seiryu happily took up learning Kenjutsu, using his inhuman capacity for breaking down movements he sees and replicating them to quickly become one of the most skilled swordsmen in all of Japan. His prestigious skill, and his powerful fighting form led him being hailed as a young genius and prodigy. Facing against humans quickly grew boring, no matter how much he tried to limit himself, so shortly after setting the Martial Arts world on fire with his sudden appearance and rise to fame, Seiry abruptly 'retired' and turned his focus elsewhere. However, he has continued to keep his fighting abilities honed in his free time, if only for their use in self protection.
Other Information: Seiryuu has a habbit of slightly pursing his lips when in thought, and will knit his eyebrows when worried.
IC Background: Biography: -The Sakurazuka Clan- Many years ago, the leader of the clan that would one day claim the name Sakurazuka, ruled the Empire of China as a living God. His people called him the dragon, and for centuries he held sway over the Chinese nations. However, rather than rule forever, he grew bored and his dark heart began to want for something more. As the embers of revolution were kindled into a blaze, he disappeared into the pages of history. The Royal Purebloods of China migrated to nearby Japan, taking the name Sakurazuka; and beginning a new clan.
Taking a liberal stance the Sakurazuka, respected even as one of the 3 great Royal Pureblood lines, became something of Black Sheep among the more traditional mindsets of the various Pureblood and Noble families. Rather than view the humans as no more than a staple food source, the Sakurazuka found that relations with the volatile and short lived humans were a source of great mutual profit. During the years that followed, the ancestors of clan Sakurazuka established themselves as powerful figures in the shadows of Japanese History, always standing behind the Daimyo’s and Emperors, quietly keeping their humans in line and in power. Steering the human affairs as necessary, and keeping the eternal masquerade in place. The all-important Concord, the unspoken and unyielding law of the vampire world, that vampires must hide in plain sight, and ensuring that the humans remain unaware of the existence of the Vampires.
The Sakurazuka became known among the Japanese Court as the 'King Makers', not above using their abilities to earn indispensable positions among the humans as bodyguards and samurais. During the most turbulent times of Japanese history the Sakurazuamori, leader of clan Sakurazuka, would secretly support to topple thrones as the clan sought to remain in their position of power, both controlling and guiding, the short sighted humans. Many times, the Sakurazuka were even forced to oppose the goals and machinations of their own kind, to better protect and guide the humans. These inclinations and willingness to protect the humans, earned the Sakurazuka many enemies among the more radical anti-human disposed memories of the Vampire species, an enmity that has lasted centuries, and in some cases, even to this very day.
-Sakurazuka Seiryuu- He was born into the lap of luxury, never having want for anything, heir to a family that stretched so far back as to encompass one of the dynasties of Chinese Emperor's as their legacy. The Sakurazuka were fiercely proud of their heritage, and even as a child Seiryu was taught that he was to take pride in what he was, and where he had come from. He was royalty, a prince among the pureblood families, and even if many might not agree with the principles of the Sakurazuka, there were few who would dare move against them. As a child Seiryu was educated by his parents and groomed so that he would one day take up the mantle of Sakurazukamori, and lead his clan, as well influence the humans to keep them on the proper path. As such, he was immersed in the study of economics and politics. Unlike so long ago, the Sakurazuka no longer aspired to rule directly, instead they navigated the world of politics through donations and charities.
The Sakurazuka invested heavily in technology firms, foreign and domestic medical research, hospitals, and many other corporations and business practices; building a fiscal Empire that ensured they were free to manipulate the human politics easily through playing upon simple greed. It was as many in the family conceded, a necessary evil, to turn the human's greed into the way to keep them in check, and preserve the balance of the world by guiding them in the 'proper' direction. As such, using various names, aliases, and loyal staff; Sakurazuka wealth accounted for more than half of the top 100 richest people in the world. It was a world of constant rules, regulations, and preparation for political intrigue. A cold world, filled with numbers and 'what must be', lacking the warmth of friendship and other such conveniences.
As he grew older, Seiryu took to finding what pleasures he could, immersing himself in whatever proved interesting enough to capture his curiosity; learning artistic endeavors like painting, sculpting, playing musical instruments, and even focusing on a few of the human Martial arts so that he might come to understand the noble spirit of the Samurai that was his inheritance. During this time, the Sakurazuka; working together with the Kuran clan, as well as the once feared Kaien Cross, began working on a new venture that would change the world forever. Funneling vast funds into medical research, a Blood Supplement was developed. This Supplement was designed and created to provide a suitable means to create a new food source, providing everything that human blood offered, even if it was bland and tasteless at this point.
With the supplement in place; the three benefactors began working to create an experiment, a herald of change; The Cross Academy. Here humans and vampires would intermingle, to prove that through the use of the Blood Supplement, Vampires and Humans were capable of living together in peace. This experiment was vital, it would show the vampire world as well as the young generation of vampires, that coexistence with the humans was as possible as it was vital. Seiryu was sent to attend, an official show of support by his prestigious family, to show how important this movement for inter species peace truly was. Seiryu himself held no particular feelings one way or another for humans, having had little real contact with them. He was however, honor bound to respect the wishes of his elders, and adamant to take place in the study.
The abstract change he experienced upon arrival caused him to question some of his more sheltered believes, and in truth be began to find the humans fascination, deciding to take the interesting chance to learn more about them. It was his interactions with one of the humans in general, that truly began to open his eyes. Cross Academy would provide him with something he found incredibly important, the means and methods to step out from the shadow of his family and the burden of destiny, so that he might be free to practice what he had learned these long years in the ‘real world’, safe from the prying eyes of his meddlesome family. With so many interesting pawns to be moved across the playing field, there would be no end to the potential ventures that he might test to better understand the humans, and the many ways that they might be manipulated. Seiryu quickly set himself to the task of building a profitable venture, providing human students with contraband items like pirated movies, music, fake ID's, and other hard to obtain items that the Academy Staff would find against the rules.
Items of Note:

Ducati Streetfighter S - Stripped to the bare essentials, its a combination of state-of-the-art race technology, exposed styling and cultured design takes Ducati’s big naked concept to the very top of the fighter food chain.
With 155hp of awesome Ducati L-Twin muscle harnessed in a stripped-down, super-light bike that packs more punch for its weight than any other contender, this fighter is gloves-off and ready for action.
Seiryuu's Ducati Streetfighter is the “S” version, equipped with Öhlins suspension, lightweight forged Marchesini wheels, carbon fiber parts and a street-going Ducati Traction Control.

Kohroh- The Crimson Flash. This is the heirloom sword of the Sakurazuka family, a masterful katana created during the Muromachi period (16th century) in Japan.
Created by the Noble Blood Vampire Muramasa Sengo, this blade was considered cursed, as while Sengo was a most skillful smith, he had a violent and ill-balanced mind verging on madness, that was supposed to have passed into his blades.... This blade was popularly believed by others of the vampire kind to hunger for blood as a vampire does, and to impel its wielder to commit murder or suicide.
There is a legend of the Masamune sister blade Sei-oh and the Muramasa blade Kohroh being put into a river strewn with lotus leaves. The leaves swirled around the Sei-oh untouched, but were slowly cut to pieces by Kohroh.
It is said that once drawn, a Kohroh must draw blood before it can be returned to its scabbard, even to the point of forcing its wielder to wound himself or commit suicide. Thus, it is thought of as a demonic cursed blade that creates bloodlust in those who wield it.
Character Goals: Seek further understanding of the humans, and their strange eccentricities.
Powers, Abilities and Notable Skills: Dark Energy Manipulation:[/b] Seiryu's primary ability is a powerful form of psionics, which works by manipulating the ambient energy fields present around living or inanimate objects, moving or changing said fields as needed. While he is capable of manipulating most forms of energy to a degree, Seiryu's true talent actually seems more akin to tapping into theoretical 'dark energy'. For most, Dark Energy is nothing more than a hypothetical form of energy that permeates all of space and is theorized to accelerate the expansion of the universe. This universal 'fifth force' influences all matter in the galaxy, much like electromagnetism or gravity. Seiryu's special abilities would seem to prove the existence of Dark Matter, and Seiryu himself has tried to research the phenomenon as much as possible, believing he might one day be able to use his power to prove the existence of Dark Energy, and create a limitless energy source.
By manipulating ambient energy, Seiryu is capable of manifesting and controlling dark energy, using this energy field to manipulate and move objects, generate protective barriers, restrain enemies, or even simulate localized gravity fields. Seiryu is quite capable of lifting and hurling an object up to almost 20 tons telekineticly, projecting a beam of solid dark energy with sufficient force to shatter concrete or rupture 3-inch thick steel, creating shifting gravitational forces to rip apart a target caught within them, or even moving through the dark energy itself in what appears to be almost instantaneous movement. Even with his high degree of control, Seiryu must keep his abilities under constant lock and key, to prevent inadvertently unleashing the powerful psionic storm within. Aside from normal projectile based energy and telekinetic applications, Seiryu can use his powers to enhance his own body by feeding on the kinetic energy for a time, dramatically improving speed, strength, stamina, and reflexes to even higher levels than one would expect from a Pureblood Vampire.
Seiryu has practiced long and hard to control his abilities, and can manifest his dark energy at will, endowing it with substance and mass. Because of this physical manifestation, Seiryu is able to shape this dark energy as he desires, creating mentally controlled constructs in a variety of forms, such as pincers, blades, shields, and so on. Even more shocking is Seiryu's ability to use this Dark Energy to move himself. By surrounding himself with Dark Energy, Seiryu can, with great focus, enter the Dark Energy's state of origin and then manifest himself at a new location. Through use of this talent, Seiryu can shift himself to nearly any location in a mile radius at will almost instantaneously, making him very hard to pin down. Thanks to his careful secrecy and control of these abilities, the true scope of his ability, as well as their nature is currently unknown to all save his adopted brother Mochizuki Keiji and childhood friend and confidant Matsumaya Kojiro. His powers are effectively sealed via an elaborate sealing ritual known as the Amaterasu Dragon's Eye Seal , an elaborately inked seal runes placed over the heart that limits his abilities by forcing Seiryu's natural ki to loop counterclockwise, rather than its natural clockwise rotation.
With the Amatersau Dragon's Eye Seal removed, the amount of energy Seiryu can manipulate is dramatically increased, to the point where he can draw so much energy into physical being that he can manifest creations composed of raw dark energy. These constructs are usually limited to solid forms such as blades, shields, or armor as needed and are proportionate in power to the degree that the seal has been removed. When fully removed, Seiryu is quite capable of manifesting a full suit of intimidating energy armor as well as various blades and weapons that can be levitated around. Just what form these constructs take form in is really only limited to his imagination, as well as the amount of energy at hand that can be used. When using his abilities Seiryu's eyes glow with dark energy, when manipulating extremely high levels of his dark energy Seiryu's full body will be shrouded in the shadowy energy. When influencing objects for the purpose of levitation, the object in question is also surrounded with a dark energy shroud.
Photographic Reflexes: By watching actions or motions performed by another, Seiryu can intuitively mimic and duplicate virtually any act he focuses on. This is not instantaneous and requires great focus. By studying particular movements repeatedly, Seiryu can duplicate near any movement that is physically possible for his body to perform. As such, he has qualified as a master martial artist, musician, artist, and gymnast simply by studying the movements of famous athletes or artists.
RP Sample: Preparation had been a new experience, as never before had he been so self-conscious about appearance and other such factors. His world was rather bleak, in which companionship with a female would be based on blood status, not actual feelings. And thus, the pre-date jitters had been such a novel experience for him. It was strange, the frantic feelings giving rise to a warm buzzing that left him all but drunken at the thought, as though he were floating and lighter than air. It was a new experience, one that he found most enjoyable in its unique prospect.
He arrived early, though apparently Tsuki had felt it prudent to do so also. He is almost nervous, giddy, lost in a euphoric maze of sensation that were so alien and novel that he wanted to smile and laugh at the very thought. He was dressed rather casually, though he had taken great care to pay attention to the appropriate level of 'chic' necessary to come across as less uptight and more relaxed. Unfortunately, being relaxed was also something quite unfamiliar, having come from the rather rigid world that was categorized by the strictest sense of separating those with Pureblood from the rest of the 'rabble'. However, when he saw her, he smiled. Even nervously pulling the collar of his blue silk shirt, ensuring that the top three buttons were open, the silver necklace he had meticulously chosen in place.
He wore black trousers, cut plain rather than too loose, and wore a pair of black low top boots, black in color as well. Though his shirt was long sleeved, he had opened the cuffs and rolled them back slightly, an attempt at a 'cool' wardrobe choice on his part. His long black hair was as carefully brushed as always, straight and free to flow around to frame his face. Gray eyes found her own, his singular gaze seeming as though the rest of the world melted away for him, that she and only she was all that existed as he gave a genuine smile and moved across the black and white tiled floor to the done up booth that she had sat in.
"Tsuki-chan, I didn't know you would be arriving early, had I known I would have tried to catch you before we left the academy. I hope I didn't make you wait to long." He says, his voice pleasant and low, his gaze still locked on her with his normal narrowed world intensity.
