    Hara Ga Kuroi Akuma
    translation: Black Demon

    In a society named Arunathia where demons live along side humans in perfect harmony in cities, there are also villages in which some of these demons are sealed within humans themselves. The act is tradition throughout the entire world and was said to have started thousands of years ago when the first human to demon contact was said to have first occurred. The tradition is quite common, though an incident occurred no more than at least one hundred years prior to the present day and time.

    Within a secluded, almost forgotten, village, there was held the ceremony in which children first receive the demon that would be a part of them until the day in which they both die. Eggs are presented before the children and they approach each one to see whether or not it will hatch for them. When an egg does hatch, the child takes the demon away from the other group and joins another side group for children who have also obtained they're demon.Each child that has a demon sealed within it gains some traits and abilities of the demon that inhabits them. The more power a person draws from a demon, the more they begin to resemble the demon they contain. After each child has received his or her new hatched demon, a second ceremony commences named "The Sealing". A group of elders in the village then perform a chant before the children and they're demon recedes into the body of its chosen human. Almost all of these demons are good natured and very rarely are they malevolent. Though this is what happened on the incident. A demon had chosen a very odd and peculiar child, one who seemed dark and cold, and was sealed within him. Normally, the consciousness of both beings residing in the body have equal influence and one is not supposed to dominate the other. This demon however, did.
    Each child that has a demon sealed within it gains some traits and abilities of the demon that inhabits them. The more power a person draws from a demon, the more they begin to resemble the demon they contain.

    The boy had become possessed by the demon and his body changed to more resemble the demon. A rampage commenced directly afterwards. The village had been destroyed and all of its inhabitants killed. The boy now moved onto other villages and did the same.There were few villages left intact after only one day after the demon's awakening. The demon then proceeded on to attack the major cities around the area. During all of this death and destruction, the demon evolved and grew more powerful and completely devoured the young boy's mind leaving only the demon in its place. The chaos spread past the area of the demon's birth and traveled to different nations, wreaking to same havoc and death as what he did with all the other areas. The world's destruction continued for exactly one year and then suddenly ceased after the demon's abrupt disappearance. The result of the attack left only half of the world's original and human and demon populations. The name of this ungodly powerful demon was simply, Yami.

    Years went on and the world recovered slowly. New cities now stand over the ruins of the ones previously destroyed by Yami. Villages also began to sprout up and the ceremonies began again. No new precautions have been taken however, to prevent a second incident. Since there haven't been any problems, people have dismissed the fact that Yami still lives. He was never killed, he only disappeared. There are now reports of frequent earthquakes in the vicinity around where Yami was last witnessed attacking before his disappearance. People choose to ignore these reports for they believe it is only the media trying to scare them. Little do they know, Yami's second coming is drawing near and he had a legion of other demons who are also now becoming active.

    ooc; I already gave ya a good karma point, but if anything, I'll just say it again, you got a pretty good thread set up here. Good to see such a good thread around here. Well, I'll present my bio then

    Human Bio

    Name: Bear Blitz (true name is not known, though he likes to be called bear, as his nick name)
    Age: 39
    Gender: male
    Appearance: [​IMG]
    Appearance2:[​IMG] (picture the demon parts of the person in the photo on his human appearance, k)
    Personality: He is a very odd individual some might say, though he is perfectly normal. He does not wish harm upon people, and is not greedy in any sense. He hates it whenever a criminal gets his way, and he does whatever he can to help those who are in need of help. He is what you might refer to as a 'good two shoes', in the sense where he always tries to do the right thing. He really just wants a life of peace though, in a rural area, where he can relax, but he seems to never have that kind of time to really try to attempt to reach that dream. He'll always look after others, and try to guide them in the right path. If anything, he is the kind of person who you would want to be with if in an extremely tight situation.
    Bio: When he was just a child, the moment he stepped up to his demons egg, it hatched, as if not even needing awhile to determine whether he was the one. When he was young, his town had been attacked by Yami, so for most of his life, he had to live on his own. When he was a teenager though, he saw how much suffering had been caused by Yami, and when he saw it, even though he had been down, since obviously, the death of his family was very intense on him, he made a decision not to become the same as all of the others, sad, depressed, completely ignoring their own well being, and letting their agony get the best of them. It was ever since then, where he devoted his life to helping others. Of course, he never wanted to end up like most of the people who died either, who could not even fend for themselves, so while spending some of his life helping others, he learned how to fight, and he put his skills to good use, attempting to stop any misdeed that befell before him. Lately, he has been living in the city, though he has been aiming towards trying to move out of the city and starting a more peacefull life away from society, where he could be alone, away from the stress of society. As for his history with his demon, he has barely used his demon, though he has gotten a long with it one might say. Though him and his demon are very different in some ways, they are the same in others. He has only needed to use his demon against someone atleast 4 times. All other times have been used in private, away from any area's which may show signs of civilization(hope the history is good enough for ya. If not, then just tell me and I can add more)
    Abilities/Powers: He can create fire balls, flamethrower (sort of like the naruto version if you need an image of what it is like), can cause molocules close by his fist to accelerate at an extreme rate, causing an explosion due to the abnormality, though it is not a dangerous explosion, though it can send a person flying. Besides that, he can create balls of energy within his hand, which is sort of like fire, except, in the form of energy. His strength increases as a bonus as well, as well as increased reflexes (I think that it is pretty rational for someone of his age to have these kinds of abilities. I am simply listing the specifics though, giving his elemental and physical attributes)

    Demon's Name: Arren
    Gender: male
    Appearance: :[​IMG] (this image actually shows the demons appearance)
    Personality: Unlike Bear, he acts full of himself, always being the enthusiastic one. He acts young, sort of like a teenager, and will always be an entaganist one might say. Though, just like bear, he does wish to help out people when they are in need, and require some help. But whenever he gets out, he does not like to hold back, since he never gets to use his powers, so he goes all out whenever he is aloud to get an edge in control.
    Elemental Energy: Fire

(i don't know whatelse to say... if you need any more on personalility then tell me)
    Bio: Myou's parents died shortly after she was born leaving her brother to care for her. as a child she was always bubbly and full of life, but after her brother was killed when their village was destroyed... myou was the only one left from the village... since then she had lost her will to live resulting in her shyness... (i think that is a word)
    Abilities/Powers: she is good with swords and martial arts. she can minipulate the shadows to completely hide herself. also there is a forbidden tequnique tshe knows... it allows the user extract part of the soul and use it to aid them in battle... like a boost of energy or a healing technique. she can't do anything with fire yet... only when she is in her demon form

    Appearance2: [​IMG]
    Personality: Akari is a girl who is shy. Her parents died not too long ago and she is still a bit depressed over it... She hasn't talked to many people since that day. But if she does talk to someone, she is kind and caring.
    Bio: Akari was born in one of the small villages that was lucky enough not to get destroyed. She had a demon girl placed inside of her when she was really young and she has grown up to be 12 years old. She had gotten the demon when she was 3.

    But soon after she got the demon, a terrible fire struck their home while she was away and both of her parents had died. Now she hasn't talked to many people since the day and she only has a golden locket to remember them by. She never takes the locket off and can be found playing with it every now and again.

    Before her grandfather died of old age a year ago, he had taken Akari in and taught her how to use the power of aura. She had been getting extremely well at it. But her grandfather died of old age about a year ago and now she is on her own. She likes to go out in the forest to improve her skills sometimes.
    Abilities/Powers: Uses the power of aura in many ways.

    Demon's Name: Rose
    Gender: Female
    Appearance: [​IMG]
    Personality: She enjoys seeing people in pain and thinks messing with their minds is simply a game.

    OOC:Well I found my old character template: No images though. But it should serve as a guide because I'll be posting the opening post along with it

    My Character
    Name: Desrin Higaki
    Age: 15
    Gender: Male
    Appearance: Desrin is of medium build and about 5'11. His muscle defined, but not overly large in size. His face is slender and his skin slightly paled. His eyes are very slim, as they resemble that of a reptiles. They're color is a deep sapphire blue with specks of gold littered throughout the iris. The hair atop his head falls loosely in long, black strands that come a little ways past the base of his neck.
    He downs a garb consisting of a crimson red Chinese style vest with intricate designs that are similar to that of a dragon winding around the entire vest. His pants, not following his vest, are baggey, black, cargo jeans with a thin chain extending from the primary left pocket around to the back of the pants to the other pocket. The shoes he wears are also modernized as they are red tennis shoes with a blacked spiked pattern going across the bottom part of the shoe and up the heel.

    Appearance2: The first change that can be noticed about Desrin is his hair.It turns from being loose and flowing into spiky and collected. His hair is pulled upwards at an angle and becomes very spiky. His eyes go from being their usual blue color to a crimson red slightly dark than his shirt. His ears also elongate and become elfin like. Two bright red triangular markings also emerge on either side of his cheeks and he grows prominent fangs that slightly protrude out from under his upper lip.
    His natural body composition doesn't change much, though his muscle mass does increase slightly. On his arms forearms also form markings similar to those on his cheeks, only more elongated to cover the length of the arm. The nails on his fingers also grow in length and sharpness.
    Another peculiar change is the growth of a reptilian like tail that is slightly thinner than the width of Desrin's body and black scaled wings the extend downward towards the backs of his knees. The wing span of these said wings are about two or three feet longer than Derin's height. These black scales also cover a majority of his back and small areas on the sides and back of his neck, arms, and legs and cheeks.

    Personality: Desrin could be said as being outgoing, but can also be very shy sometimes. Mostly kept to himself in large groups of people, Desrin only shows his true colors when his is alone or with very few people. He can be cruel and insensitive at other times, but it's just how he is.He would like to change his ways but is finding it to be a little difficult. Though his one redeeming trait would be his need to protect all of those who he thinks needs to be saved or helped even though he has a cold exterior.

    Bio: Since Desrin has always had a strong sense of justice, hes felt the need to fight for what is right in a sense. Directly after he obtained Ryuuda, his demon, he immediately began feverishly training to hone his new skills and abilites. Though not to long afterwards was his village attacked by a mysterious group of rouge demons. The attack left his village in ruins and his family lie dead in what used to be their home. Ever since then, his personality slowly changed into what it is now.
    Today, Desrin lives in a bustling city alone where he is now contemplating getting revenge on the destroyers of his village. His leads point to a group calling themselves "The Followers of the Black Demon." Strangely, it seems that they have only been recently wreaking havoc after the tremors at the site of Yami's disappearance.

    Abilities/Powers: Heightened Speed, Heightened Senses, Increased Strength, Flight. Desrin also has the ability to create a black fire inferno and manipulate the fire with his will.

    Demon's Name: Ryuuga
    Gender: Male
    Appearance: Ryuuga is a dragon demon about the size of Desrin, his container. His head is long, and very reptilian like with two grand horns coming out of the top of his head. Between these two horns is a mass spiky red hair that runs down his back between and over his two large wings.His eyes are the same blood red color of Desrin's when he draws on his energy and on each eye is a bright red marking that extends a little over the eye, downwards to the sides of his jaw. Every inch of his body is also covered with onyx, black scales. His tail is also longer than that of is human counter part as well as his markings which are more prominent. Ryuuga's hands consist of three thick scaly fingers that have powerful, sharp talons at their tips. This legs are very muscular at the thighs and also at the calves. His feet are also similar to his hands, which is them having very large and sharp talons. A hard, smooth armor plating covers the length of the front of Ryuuga's torso.
    Personality: Ryuuga is pretty much a more confident, self-centered, and obnoxious version of Desrin. Not too mention cocky. He's always talking Desrin down when he fails at something and believes he should have a say in who controls the body. When hes not talking about Desrin, he's quietly contemplating ways to irritate him.

    Elemental Energy:Fire, Shadow, and Utter Darkness

    Okay You can start wherever it doesn't matter. You can even make a place up. Just be sure to eventually end up in Zarakolis. You may similarly follow the way I started by starting in your village or outlying town or start in Zarakolis itself, A megalopolis full of both humans and demon...not all being necessarily good.

    Btw, you can make up names. I don't really mind.



    ________________________________
    Within a vast forest lay the remnants of a village all but forgotten by a few people. About the ground were large chunks of wood and pieces of brick, all were either charcoaled or on the verge of breaking down completely. Desrin, whom once lived in the village, walked through its ruins. He slowly walked to a spot where his house had once been. The only thing left of it was a pile of rubble. Desrin often came back to this place to see if he could find anything of importance that wasn't destroyed at the time of the villages destruction. He crouched down and rummaged through the mass that was his former home and found a lone picture. It was his family portrait. In the center was his mother and father, in front of them were his three sisters , and to the right of his father was himself. All of them looked so happy, but they were all gone now. Only he remained.

    Desrin sighed deeply. "Who would have thought something like this could have happened to a village such as this...."

    "I could have thought it. Though I can think about a lot of things."
    Ryuuga replied curtly.

    "No one asked you Ryuuga. Your comment was completely uncalled for."

    "I thought you did ask me! Otherwise why would you say something just off into the air knowing that I'm always here?"

    "Shut it. I don't want to hear anything from you right now. I peace ad quiet. You know sometimes, I wish I could close off my mind to you...." Desrin replied calmly.

    "Well even if you could do that, I could always do this..." A reddish wave like cloud appeared before Desrin after Ryuuga uttered his last words. It slowly condensed into a physical form of Ryuuga, who appeared to be grinning very widely, almost maniacally. His long red hair fell lifelessly down his back and his horns glistened in the dim sunlight. He looked at Desrin, then turned his head away in an act to symbolize disgust.

    "God you're annoying, why'd you choose me out of all of those other kids?"

    "Hmmm...maybe because you seemed the easiest to annoy? Or maybe because I sensed you have a specific purpose that only you and I can fulfill?"This last sentence sounded more serious than his previous ones.

    "What was that?" Desrin asked questioningly.

    "Oh it was nothing. Nothing of any importance whatsoever."Ryuuga had gone back to his playful tone.

    "Well anyway, I've spent enough time reminiscing about the past. Its time for us to go."

    "Fine fine, let us take our leave then brat." With that, Ryuuga wafted away like a cloud of smoke and took his place back within Desrin. After making sure Ryuuga was where he was supposed to be, he turned to leave the ruins of his first home and head back into the city.

    Getting through the thickets in the forest was more difficult coming back through them from the village than going to the village. Desrin still found it quite difficult to do so now. It took at least an hour before the forest began to finally lighten again and the city of Zarakolis came into view. This city was the largest and most important of all the new cities because it lies over the site of the former capital of the country of Hugetsu. This, was Desrin's new home.

    There was a long, dirt road that twisted into the middle of a forest, and at the end of the road in the forest was a small town named Kanappolis. A young girl named Akari was walking down this road, looking wearily from tree to tree, trying to find her way out. She had just come from Kanappolis, her home city. The village had just been attacked and everything lied in ruins, but she was only one of very few people who survived. Her clothes were torn and she was limping, wounded in one leg. One of the shoulders had just gotten her and she barely managed to escape. Silently, she made her way towards the end of the forest, her vision blurring. At the other end of the path laid a town where she knew she could get some help... but where was it?

    With every step, she became closer and closer until she could see the town just in view. Zarakolis... I guess that's where I should be now... she thought and walked down the road that led to the village gates.

    Strife was doing what he usually did when he had nothing to do, sleeping. He was in the middle of a green forest. Squirrels were scampering, birds were singing. The main path was about a mile east.

    "Wake Up!!!!" Shira yelled.

    Strife woke up and then looked at the position of the sun. "It is only about nine." he whined.

    "Just get going already."

    "Where are we going again?"

    Shira sighed. "Zarakolis."

    "Oh right." Strife took off running.
