Name: Kouteinoshi Roka
Rank: Lieutenant of Palace Guard; Prince of the Dark Kitsune
Basic Personality:
Excitable, somewhat neurotic, distractable, and pessimistic, Roka hardly seems a likely candidate for the Elite - exactly why he was put into the Palace Guard. Despite appearances, he has indeed earned his rank of lieutenant. When it becomes necessary, Roka can pull his excitable nature in and focus on the task at hand, proving that he is both intelligent and capable.
Brief History:
Two thousand years ago, the Lord of Nine Tails had an affair with one of his Fallen Elite guards. The product of that union was Kouteinoshi Roka. Knowing his time was short, the Lord of Nine Tails exacted a promise from his people to protect and care for his young son. After his death, the Dark Kitsune disbanded all non-Kitsune Elite guards.
For the first few centuries of his life, Roka was raised almost entirely within the confines of the Kitsune Quarter. It wasn't until Lucifer's own Kitsune Pe'ri daughter was reaching an age where she needed a playmate like herself that Lucifer decided to foster Roka in his own house.
One thing led to another, and eventually Roka was given an ambassadorial position in the Imperial Court by the Dark Kitsune for one hundred years. When the next Lord of Nine Tails was elected, he ordered Roka back, where he stayed for the next 150 years. Afterwards, Roka joined the Palace Guard and hasn't set foot in the Kitsune Quarter since.
Powers/Abilities:
Flight - Roka has a pair of feathered wings, which allow him to fly.
Mirage - Roka can produce ornate, but ultimately intangible illusions. He can, with concentration, cause a small object or part of a large object, to be ignored - or at the very least, overlooked.
Weapon's Master - Roka has been extensively trained in the use of two kusarigama.
Dimensional Pocket - Roka can create a small, 3'x3' dimensional pocket, which can hold up to 500lbs of objects. If they're packed correctly, that is.
Weakness(es):
Neurotic Pessimist - Roka will often envision (and describe with growing energy) the worst-case-scenario, no matter what logic dictates. If allowed, he can continue on this for several minutes, if not up to an hour or so. The more he is allowed the continue, the worse he perceives the situation to be.
Low Self-Esteem - Having spent much of his life in the Kitsune Court, Roka has trouble seeing his own worth and importance, and will often dismiss compliments or terms of affection out of hand. He does not dwell on this, however, and is often quite surprised when one accuses him of having low self-esteem.
Magical Items:
Vitium and Sanctimonia - Twin kursarigama, forged for him at Ereshkigal's behest. The chain is made of a lightweight, but strong material, with the weights of both chains emblazoned with the Imperial Crest. The blade of Vitium was tempered with Abyssal water, and injuries from it will rot and fester. Sanctimonia was tempered with Holy Water, and has a corrosive effect on demons.
Glass Orb - Part of a set that all the Palace Guard carries, this allows Roka to contact and communicate with the rest of the Guard.
Non-Magical Items:
A handful of shiny stones and rocks, enough money to survive on for a week, and a change of clothes. What do you expect a Kitsune Pe'ri to keep in his dimensional pocket?
Appearance:
As a Kitsune Pe'ri, Roka can assume three forms. His most common form is a half-form. He stands a little over six feet tall, with a sleek, muscular build from years of physical training. He wears his dusky, black hair long and pulled back in a low ponytail, and has amber eyes with a elliptical pupil. He is covered in short, very fine white fur that looks like skin from a distance. It shades to a dusky grey at his extremities. Though he is nearly two thousand years old, Roka only has one fox tail, with a black tip. His wings are a dusky charcoal.
His other form is a more human-looking one. His skin is a pale, peachy-gold, but otherwise he retains his hair color and eye color. Roka's last form is that of a wolf-sized silvery white fox, with charcoal legs, ear tips, and tail tip, and charcoal feathered wings.
