Appearance

He's a somewhat moderate sized male with a lean yet very well muscled and toned body. He has short golden orange hair and brown eyes. He wears two hanging pearl/gemstone earrings and tends to wear necklaces as well. He wears a long Black coat with coattails, and underneath he tends to wear a short sleeved or sleeveless t-shirt and pants with a belt. He also tends to wear hiking boots or sports boots of some sort, as he is a very active person. Over his coat he has a strap going from over one shoulder to under the other arm, in which the diamond fan is strapped to his back in a special carrying case.

Personality

Katsuo inherited personality traits from both his parents. He comes off as arrogant and sarcastic with borderline narcissism. He is, however, always optimistic and loyal to his friends. He'll do what he can to help a friend, even if it means endangering his own life in the process. He also has his mother's insatiable hunger, and sometimes his body will disobey him when he smells something delicious.

Background

Born from an unlikely union of his parents, Katsuo actually grew up in the book of the World of the Four Gods. He does not know much of his mother, though his father had a tendency to mention her from time to time. He heard the story of how his mother arrived in the world and the strange ongoings that have happened since. Growing up with the bandits, Katsuo did not try to take over leadership when his father grew old and weak.

He did, however, inherit the diamond fan, and set out on his own at the tender age of 17. His mission? To leave the world of the four gods and find his mother. He had to know the world where his mother grew up and returned to after giving birth to him. Being born from someone in the real world, he one day did discover a way to escape the book, but has no idea where to go from here.

Powers & Merits

Powers

• Keen Sense of Smell: Having a sharp nose, he is able to smell things much better than the average person. (He tends to use it to sniff out food mostly.)

• Sixth Sense (Ki): Being a fighter able to use ki, he can sense spiritual and ki based energies.

• Mimic: The ability to impersonate someone's appearance, including their voice. Is only as convincing as his acting skills would be. Weakness: If you look at his face too closely, you will notice slight 'errors' in the mimicry, and as such this skill will not always succeed.

• Barrier: He is able to errect a barrier that he must channel to block incoming physical and magical attacks. The barrier isn't extremely strong but it might buy a crucial moment or two in the heat of battle, or when he is using his teleport ability to evacuate others. Katsuo uses the diamond fan in replacement of a monk staff to channel this effect.

• Teleport: Katsuo will be able to 'teleport' from location to location, able to bring others with him if he so desires. The teleport does not work across dimensions and people are only able to use it as long as he keeps it up. The 'teleport portal' looks like a shadow when in use. (Note: Can only be used out of combat.)

• Hide: A variation of teleport, he is able to hide in his hat (much like the one Chichiri wore). If the hat is destroyed, he is forced out of the hat. No one is able to enter the hat uninvited. (Think of it as a pocket dimension that can see into the world through the hat itself.)

Merits

• Acute Senses (1): Sense of smell. Alertness rolls involving this sense have a +1 Bonus.

• Common Sense (1): You are full of practical wisdom. A great merit for starting characters, as you may receive advice from the GM regarding how to handle certain situations.

• Daredevil (3): You love to take risks, and are damn good at living through them. +2 Bonus when risking your life.

• Luck (3): You can repeat three failed rolls per mission, one repeat per roll, and the second roll always stands.

Unique Items

• The Tessen: Diamond Fan: He has his father's diamond fan, a magical fire summoning weapon.
  • Rekka Shinen: Calling this out while swinging the diamond fan summons a burst of flame. With practice, one can summon larger bursts of flame and control the shape and size of it.

• Magic Talismen: He has the same magic talismen that his father did. He even learned how to make them himself.
  On one side of the talismen is the magical spell. On the other side, you write down the name of something you want to summon, and it will cause a magical illusion to spawn. (Example: Wolves, cake, Tamahome.)

Items of Note

• 

  Fast reloading rifle. 1876 model.

• 

  Colt .45 Single Action Army (SAA) Revolver - the Peacemaker - Weight: 2 lb. 5 oz. - Overall Length: 11" - Barrel Length: 7.5" - Built: 1873

Weaknesses & Flaws

• Compulsion (1): Katsuo is addicted to food, and can smell it from a great distance. Might need to roll (Diff 6) to resist this.
• Compulsive Speech (aka Big Mouth) (1): Talkative and a bit blunt.
• Isolated Upbringing (1): He was raised in ancient china. Dealing with any community outside the one in which you were raised raises a -1 Penalty on Social rolls, when RP'ing accomodates it.
• Mistaken Identity (1): With how his hair color is and the way he dresses, he is often mistaken for his own father.
• Offensive to Animals (1): Cats. For some reason, animals fear you or just don't like you. All rolls involving interacting with animals are at a -1 Penalty.
• Overconfident (1): You think you can do everything even though you probably can't, and you try to prove your belief as often as possible.
