⌈Race⌋
Yokai | Obake

⌈Physical Description⌋
Ryuu is tall and slim but he sports a muscular physique. His skin is pale with two red short eyebrows framed by silver bangs. He has bright turquoise teal eyes with pupils that appear red to others. It's a sharp contrast between the ocean blue eyes and red pupils. The narrow shape of his eyes give his gaze a piercing feeling and his straight nose gives him the perfect regal touch. His silver hair is extremely long, reaching his lower back, and it tapers off into many directions. His face tends to have a lazy look all the time except occasionally when he smirks or grins. Uroko also has noticeable blue/green shimmering scale tattoo's on his upper arms and chest. Overall he's exotically handsome and is easily capable of wooing women. In his true form his fur is silvery white and his red eyebrows become markings around his eyes and on his muzzle and forehead. His tail is extremely long and his fangs are peculiar in that like regular beast-like teeth, the canines are elongated, but his back teeth are pointed and elongated too. Also, his eyes which are blue with red pupils in his humanoid form become a golden-orange. The slitted pupils remain in both forms as that is one of the few small things that are hard to change. Any other form has the same white color and red markings, although the markings can be found on different parts of the body.
"I fall in love with myself a little more everyday. You should hop on the bandwagon darling."
✦ Being Touchy with Females || It's all apart of his flirtatious games.
✦ Shape-changing into normal animals to spy on his friends || The rare few times he feels like doing something, he likes to spy on his friends and check out all their weird habits.
✦ He only drinks rice wine made by human brewers. || This is a strange quirk because Ryuu dislikes humans to the point of wanting them dead most of the time, but he prefers their rice wine to any others and will go to certain lengths to get it.
"You wouldn't guess some of the strange things I've seen spying on the leader! I'll never tell though."
⌈Likes⌋
♥Rivers, Lakes, Pools
♥Eating | Drinking
♥Attention
"The three best thing in life, right?"
⌈Talents⌋
✔ Tracking Scents|| Ryuu is able to decipher scents and sort through them to find scent trails that can be used to find someone.
✔ Spying || His shapeshifting ability allows him to take inconspicuous forms to spy with. No one would suspect a stray cat, a sparrow, or even more so their best friend.
✔ Guarding || Ryuu doesn't have much in offensive talents other than brute strength but he's an excellent guard Obake. Especially since once he claims a nice spot he'll never move.
"I'm useful to my tribe. What do you do?"
⌈Hobbies⌋
✔ Swimming|| He remembers being born in the water and from a young age loved swimming in shallow pools and warm waters.
✔ Sleeping|| You can experience otherworldly things in dreams and it's the perfect way to recuperate after a quick visit with a woman.
✔ Drinking || Alcohol doesn't effect him the way it would a human so he can drink heavily for hours and still have only a warm feeling, no grogginess or bad decisions.
"If you don't enjoy my hobbies, you don't enjoy living. Plain n' simple."
⌈Dislikes⌋
✖ Kappa
✖ Humans
✖ Overworking
"I'm not racist. I'm not completely lazy. I just dislike those froggy things, humans are unreliable, and it's exhausting to work too much."
⌈Fears⌋
✘ Buried Alive|| Ryuu dislikes the idea of being crushed and choked to death underneath all that dirt the most. He fears it plenty more than he does drowning, poisoning, or any other type of death.
✘ Decimation Of The Forest || If he lost his forest, he would lose his home.
✘ Guns || He believes that the iron bullets poisons the soul and turns any creature into a hatred filled demon.
"You thought I would be afraid of spiders? Wow. I'm not pathetic like that."
⌈Flaws⌋
✘ Arrogant|| Ryuu doesn't just think he's superior, he knows he is. The only exceptions to that belief would be the Leader and Second-in-Command to the Demon Tribe. All others get subjected to this belief. This sprouted from a young age after he became the strongest among a few others of his kind.
✘ Apathetic | Lazy || Ryuu is lazy enough for his laziness to turn in apathy towards having strenuous relationships and tasks. He likes to lay around and dislikes working too much. He would prefer it if he could just sleep, mess around with women, and drink all day. Don't forget the occasional swim.
✘ Commitment Issues || Ryuu has never been the type to tie himself down intentionally and likes being a single man with a thousand fish swimming in front of him. Why pick one when almost all of them have pretty scales?
"It's true. Although they certainly aren't flaws!"

⌈Personality⌋
|| Humorous || Lazy || Wise || Mischievious ||
|| Clever || Flirtatious || Haughty || Easygoing ||
Ryuu is an easygoing guy who treads along at his own pace and doesn't pay much attention to what others want from him. He's not selfish but he simply is only interested in doing things his way. He thinks that his way is better and that he is stronger and more awesome than most others, the only exceptions being the Leader and Second-in-Command. He respects their leadership traits and strong positive traits and therefore looks up to them slightly. The ones who suffer the worst from his arrogant behavior are humans because he thinks they are unreliable, untrustworthy, and self-destructive. This is probably due to one of his secrets. Therefore, Ryuu is never serious about relationships and keeps things purely casual when it comes to lovers. He goes out of his way to avoid having to stay too long with one person and has definitely earned the title: player.
Behind all his easygoingness and laziness is the fact that he is a truly intelligent and helpful person. He cherishes his few friends and does offer help when it's desperately needed, making him a reliable person in dire situations. He's not protective but he does feel responsible if someone gets hurt in his presence. In such a backwards way, he could be considered a caring person. He doesn't overtly try to concern himself with others but when needed he will do what he must.
Lastly, because Ryuu is an easygoing person he often cracks jokes and is the clownish person of any group. Although sometimes his humor is exclusively understood for a select few people, there isn't a dull moment with him.
"Perfect description if I may say so! Can we highlight the part about me being intelligent and amazing?"
TBA
"Not much to know here. I don't have any real relationships…and the rest is my business."
⌈Most Precious Person⌋
TBA
"I don't know how to answer that. No one person is special to me."
⌈Family⌋
Ryouta Kuu Ashikaga || Deceased || Father || After I was old enough to take care of myself we separated and last known news said he was dead.
Kaede Hana Watachiho|| Alive, 546 Years Old || Mother || She stayed a bit longer after Father left but she still left when I became old enough to take partners.
"I don't have much in the way of family. I don't even know if I have brothers or sisters."
⌈History⌋
Ryuunosuke was born in the river in the forest that he currently lives in. (His kind gives a cross between live birth and oviparous birth. So he was incapsulated in a thin egg sack in a shallow pool and then when he is fed a strong soul that grows and becomes his own, he hatches so to say.) It was very long ago so he barely remembers the circumstances of his birth but he knows that his parents were from different parts of the lands and that his father was a Bakeneko and his mother a Kitsune which is why his form turned out looking like a mix between the two Obake species. Supposedly his parents had been in love and had immediately procreated to give life to him. His mother had said that his soul had grown from a cheerful old mans' soul on his death bed. A mercy to the man to be freed and given forth to new life, they said. His parents both left him when he was still relatively young but not at the same time. His father left when he was a toddler and would assuredly survive and then his mother departed when he began to stake out his own territory and females. Back in that day, the humans hadn't yet had a strong civilization beside the forest and times were unregulated and peaceful.
Ryuu took advantage and decided to become stronger than any Obake. He succeeded, but, at the price of dozens of innocent lives. However, he doesn't regret his choice because at the time it was survival of the fittest. It was many years later that he fell in love at first sight with a human woman. She was as weak as any other human woman physically, but, boasted a beauty that went unmatched by any creature he had seen in his long life. Her long black hair, petite face, and svelte figure covered by her woven robes always stuck at his heart every time he saw her. So, he courted her. However, the day came when she saw him transform into the true form and the next time he went to see her she tried to kill him. She drove a dagger into his back and screamed words from the holy faith at him. He was no demon and definitely wasn't weak enough to die from a wound in the side so he killed her and ate her soul so that she would always be with him as punishment for betraying him. Since then he lived casually and minded his own business, refusing to eat any other souls unless necessary.
Some time close to present day, he joined the Demon Tribe. He didn't have much of a choice if he wanted to keep his large territory since it overlapped with the tribe's and he quickly became suited to the tribal life. Sometimes it made him weary but he enjoyed the company of other Yokai and even the Demons. Now, the war is upon them and he already knows who he sides with regardless of the proceeding events.
"Those humans don't know what's coming, eh?"
✦Shapeshifting | The power to transform and reshape the form of one's body. It's said that harming a Obake during the swift shift can often be fatal and detrimental to their health although that's just a rumor.
✦Fire Manipulation | He can create, shape and manipulate fire. Specifically, his flames appear blue because of his parentage and genetics. (Kitsune flames are often blue)
✦Soul-Eating | He can devour souls, but it either must be offered or the person must be killed in order to eat it.
"I'm fairly simple. Just a few tricks really."
