Character's Name:
Sora
Age:
836 years old
Gender:
Male
Species:
Kitsune
Abilities:
~ Illusion magic ~
As with all Kitsunes, Sora is a known user of illusions. His many years of practicing has allowed him pretty good control of his illusions, To the point where he can make someone look entirely different, but at the bark of a dog he loses concentration and drops his current illusions. He also uses magic to hide the current total of tails available, usually leaving about 4 visible at any given time.
~ Wind Magic ~
As with most Kitsune, he has the ability to control one elemental magic-- Circumstances of his birth allowed him to gain the use of wind magic. When he uses it on it's own, he mainly uses it for protection and defense, using the wind to re-direct or deflect attacks. Using it at really high speeds can wear him out quickly, but allows him to deflect all but the strongest attacks. This is not the only way he uses wind magic, but is the most common.
~ Swordplay (Falchion) ~
To supplement his natural abilities, Sora trained for a while with Swords, dabbling in many different types and styles before sticking with the Falchion. To increase his abilities with the Falchion, he supplemented his swordplay with wind magic, allowing him to cut a bit sharper than he would before, and even create a bit of a gust, which while not quite as strong as a full sword swing, still can make some decent cuts. However, these can be easily dispelled, or even blocked without too much consequence.
Appearance:
As a Human, Sora stands pretty tall, at a good 6 foot. He has his hair a few shades darker than his brother, more of a dark silver than a light gray, and bright blue eyes that shone like a clear sunny day. He wears clothing that allows for some free movement, albeit with a few things of flair. Unless the situation desperately calls for otherwise, he usually always has his tails and ears out, though he masks the true number of tails he has most of the time.
As a Fox, Sora has much of the same fur color as his hair, in various gradients of dark silver to lighter gray, in patchy parts of his body. He's also much larger than his little brother, being comparable to a wild wolf in size. He also usually does not hide his tails in this form, fanning them out behind him.
Personality:
Much like the younger Hiro, Sora is a pretty easygoing person, though a bit more serious than the younger fox. He's also a lot more calm, happy to just spend a day under a tree and watch the clouds go by. However, he's also prone to laziness if he's not currently engaged in any sort of task.
There is a way to make this easy-going nature slip away, though-- threaten anything or anyone he cares about, and he'll be more than happy to show the full strength of an 8-tailed kitsune. He'd go great lengths to protect anything-- especially his family.
