Ⅵ Aspect: Ⅵ
Redemption - Once being a criminal himself, Yo was forced to face his own crimes when his home and family were put into danger. He realized at the last moment the folly of his ways and was utterly disgusted in himself. In a last ditch effort to defend his home, Yo turned and attacked those whom he was workign with despite being outnumbered. He knew that in doing this he would most likely be killed... but he also realized that deep in his heart he'd rather die than continue living the rotten life he had chosen. Sensing this desire to atone for his sins and to redeem himself in his own eyes and the eyes of others, the Soulstone chose him on a whim to be one of its champions, granting him the blade, Rebirth, and the power of The People's Shield that said blade carried.

Ⅵ Soul Blade: Ⅵ



Rebirth is a fairly unassuming looking single handed broadsword designed judging by its appearance for a nice balance of offense and defense when fighting against both single targets and groups of opponents. In terms of basic combat potential as a weapon it does not appear to be anything special, it is a good all around choice capable of dealing with many situations and in Yo's experienced hands the weapon can be used to quite deadly effect. It is not, however, the best in any field... despite being capable of doing many things efficiently it is far outclassed in regions such as power, speed and range by countless different kinds of specialized weapon. A true jack-of-all-trades master of none, Yo trusts the sword with his life and realizes that its true strength comes from its magical defensive capabilities... when it comes to offense Yo knows it can get the job done and that's all that matters to him. Being a weapon created by the Soul Stone itself, Rebirth is completely unbreakable... its blade never so much as losing sharpness from constant use.

Ⅶ Secondary Weapon:Ⅶ
Yo carries an old blow-dart launcher that he obtained during his time as a criminal. The weapon is primarily designed for stealth, but Yo is capable of using it in interesting and unique ways thanks to his extensive use of it in the past. By simply inserting a dart in the opposite end of the simple tube-like weapon and blowing hard, Yo can launch his projectiles over several feet in distance. He is also capable of crafting poison darts which will slowly weaken and potentially kill his enemies... but he largely refrains from using these since they remind him too much of his old ways. He mainly uses sharpened darts that can be used as distractions while using stealth or as a means of cutting into vital body parts such as the eyes or neck in the heat of combat.

Ⅷ Blade Magic: Ⅷ
The Peoples Shield:

Upon being driven into the ground in a moment of desperation, the sword Rebirth can be used by Yo to preform the powerful magic known as "The People's Shield". This spell transforms Yo's equipment and surrounds the young fighter in a suit of shining white armor, this armor is tight fitting and flexible, allowing Yo to move unrestricted around the battlefield while at the same time gaining a large bolstering to his initial defense. However, aside from these features... it is a completely ordinary suit of armor. It can even be broken if hit hard enough! (Though Yo can reform at the next chance gets the to use his swords magic again.) Some might consider an ability as mundane as summoning a regular if flashy suit of armor to be unworthy of a Soul Blades power... but the true magic of the armor comes not from the defense of ones self, but from the defending of others.

If Yo, while wearing his armor, uses his own body as a shield to defend someone else from an otherwise devastating blow... the attack will be nullified completely and no damage will be done to the attacked individual or to Yo himself. There are conditions to this rule however,

-Yo MUST be protecting the intended target of the attack for the attack to work at all. Protecting someone whom was, say, caught in the crossfire of an attack will not trigger The Peoples Shields ability.

-The attack must be COMPLETELY blocked by Yo, if so much as a scratch of harm comes to the defended party due to the blocked attack then the attack will not be nullified and Yo will most likely take a horrible amount of damage.

-The Peoples Shield can only defend ONE person at once, trying to save multiple people at the same time will not trigger the nullification effect.

Ⅸ Non-Combat Skills: Ⅸ

➣ Sneaking: Being a criminal (and a good one at that) for so long has taught Yo many things about stealth and the manipulation of the environment to his advantage. Stealing required materials, pickpocketing horrid guards of the Lumina Fang and even moving among other criminals unnoticed are just some of the many benefits that Yo draws on from this skill. Of course, this skill can be related to combat as well, but when in direct conflict with someone Yo prefers to fight his opponents head on using his blade and The People's Shield more so than his stealth based attacks. In stealth is also the time when one is most likely to see Yo use his blow-dart launcher... as he is unable to use it while wearing the helmet accompanying The People's Shield.

➣ Animal Interaction: Living in a village with livestock as a primary export made dealing with animals a necessity for Yo. He claims that animals love him and he isn't lying, he has a certain way with the horses, hounds and other animals of the world that tends to surprise certain individuals. Yo even claims that he's noticed some of the monsters that strike on the nights of the blood moon hesitate when fighting him... but nobody tends to believe him when he talks about that... he's probably lying anyway.

➣ Coercion: Positively silver tongued and well able to talk himself out of plenty of awkward situations, Yo tends to take pride in himself for his conversation skills. He's sure he'd be quite the Cassanova in fact (If he wasn't terrified of women that is). He'll admit that alot of his skill in coercion came from his days as a criminal... but he views it as a good thing so long as he's able to use these skills in speech for good rather than evil. Still... women, he finds it doesn't work as well on them, probably because he can't stop himself from stuttering whenever a girl gives even the slightest hint of interest in what he's saying. Poor guy.

Ⅱ The Reason Why: Ⅱ
Disgusted by the atrocities he committed while a criminal... and due to the fact that he obtained his weapon the moment he decided to repent those ways, Yo views his mission to find the Soulstone as a means of redeeming himself and becoming a good person once again. He believes in his heart that if he claims the Soulstone he will obtain the power to destroy all of the criminal aspects in the world (including the Lumina Fang) as well as the monster population to boot. He wants to destroy the threats to humanity... and when all is said and done? He'll use his new and righteous power to help guide the people back towards a happy and peaceful existence. If he can't complete his task? Then he will keep going until he dies. His only remaining purpose now is the Soulstone... nothing else matters.
