[span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\'] Battle Information[/span][/b]

Story Weapon:No Name ''(Advent Terra only)''- Kai's first main zweihander that he earned from Seto-sama. The blade's design includes a phoenix emblem at the blunt. It proves to be a great primary weapon through out the entire story. Though it's initially heavy for a normal Anthrope, Kai's youkai enhancement allows him to wield it with great ease. However, in his final battle, it is battered, chipped and burned after Kai used his Arcana attack, Blitz Aeon Wave.

Primary Weapon 1:Schwarzblitz (Translated as 'Black Thunder') - A single-edged zweihander replacing his old weapon. This weapon's blade is actually black in color (hence Schwarz) and makes great use of his yoki power, modified to be equipped with Thundertouch, it can be use to momentarily stun an opponent when a direct hit is registered. Unlike his old weapon, it's less heavier, causing a decrease in weapon strentgh, but makes up for great speed

Primary Weapon 2: Tempest - A rather large zanbatou with an unusual blade designed to cripple defensives severely by utilizing Thunder magic, The hilt and blade are approximately the same lentgh, which may serve as a double-sided weapon. It is the current weapon he uses aside from his Schwarzblitz

Secondary Weapon:Claws - When Kai is disarmed, he resorts to using his talons which can be retracted at anytime. They are razor-sharp enough to pierce normal armor
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Abilities:

Strentgh - Kai's enhanced youkai strentgh allows him to lift at least 10 tons at full strentgh

Speed - Kai is no world record breaker in the youkai category, but he is able to move at least to a speed of 340 mph at best

Yoki Aura/Power -  Kai has a range of special attacks that are registered by his beige, eletric aura. In Advent Terra, Kai is a novice at using his power in the beginning to but as time passes, learns to use it like another weapon, and eventually, a semi-extension of his body.

Flight - His retractble wings gives Kai good flexibility when in the air, allowing for high-speed sword plants from the air, or to sweep up his opponent unnoticed

Summon - Aqcuired after joining Organization Heart of Twlight. He is able to conjure feral-like feline creatures known as the Raiju, which are mainly composed of lightning and are summoned in groups of three. Kai also is in control of a more intelligent, more powerful version and apparently, the only female named Navo. Disabled permanently

Shapeshifting - An ability that allows him to take the shape of whatever he desires. Unlike his brother and father, his alternate forms are usually more imcomplete and can't retain them as long. Also, he is unable to change his colors
---------------------------

Forms

Normal form: Kai's initial appearance. Nothing out of the ordinary except three white bangs hang over his head and beige eyes with slit pupils. He also has a left, black, demon wing that he keeps hidden with his normal right one

Youkai form: When running completely low on health, or completely enraged, his demon blood takes over, making him manic and feral (runs around on four). His claes and fangs grow slightly longer and his unkempt, black hair becomes a longer white mane reaching past his back. His other normal wing becomes demonic and gets red eyes. Power and speed increase, but health slowly decreases. After Dark Kai was released, this power is no longer accessible

Degel form: Kai's final form when combining both his youkai and seraphic powers from his father to meld one powerful energy together. In this form, everything beige and black on his body turns a lusterous silver including markings, and hair. He now sprouts two silver wings at the hip area, allowing an increase in speed when both on the ground and flying. His two swords also float around him in a circle, striking on Kai's accord. Power, speed and magic increase.[/color]

Esper Form: Argubly Kai's strongest form, having access to abilties of all previous forms, including his Super SpinDash, now modified that he uses his sword as well. Decreases yoki very rapidly

Previous Forms

Super Form - This form was only used once as a hedgehog. When he harnessed the combined powers of all 7 Chaos Emeralds, his dark gray fur changed to a glowing silver and his beige turned to a blue and silver turned to black, more like a color inversion. Similar to the Degel Form, his powers magnify and his surrounded by a silvery aura

Hedgehog - The form in which he first made possible his hero status. Kai was a tad bit more cocky and ambitious, but a hero nonetheless. In this form, Kai was just several inches taller than a normal Mobian but his overall fur color remained the same. He possessed 6 quills in a unique style. The lower two drooped down. The middle two raised, and the top curved up. Beige rings and silver tips locked onto his quills. He also had three bangs on his forehead as well. He still possessed the beige eyes

[span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\'] Arcana (special attacks)[/span]

Sword Pressure - When swung powerful enough, Kai can slash his opponent without the blade having to actually make contact

Phantom Slash - Combined with his speed with both his wings and sword, Kai slices through his opponent, leaving ghastly images of him in his wake

Final Blitz Spin - Launches a Link-style Spin Attack that deals Thunder damage in a wide area.

Blitz Omni Wave - Kai's final Aracana that allows him to fire off a massive torrent of thunder by swinging his sword and adding 3/4 of his yoki into his weapon

Slice 'n Dice - Disappears momentarily, before attacking in a scatter-;ike manner in the form of beige orbs that slash at high speeds. Sometimes, the orbs may home in on an opponent

Tempest Strike Attacks opponent by striking the ground, releasing massive amounts of thunder in the form of a storm-like shockwave

Weakness Prone to water and light based attacks and poor defense

Dark Kai - Kai's shadow created from the anger and hatred that he harbored as a kid, with a sadistic taste in blood. Assimilated by Keizye but still exists in some form

---------------------------------------------------------------

Personality: Kai has changed somewhat over the years. Kai usually has a sort of emo attitude, deep in his thoughts. Non one knew what really was on his mind. Since the revelation of his former life, Kai has slowly adapted to a normal life raising his children. Since then, he has become more optimistic and somewhat of a father figure like Nicholas. He greatly detests being constantly poked by Ciara and often wonders about the stranger things in life

[span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\']History[/size]

Kai is the lone son the the demon Youni Chronaius and the ex-president of Weiss Corps., Elizabeth Chronaius. Like any other child, he lives a semmingly weird, or unfair life. At some point during his childhood, he was temporarily sent away when he accidently used a figure of speech, which sounded disturbing to them, because they did not understand. This lead him into a tavern, probably not visited in years, as the ground was littered with bones. As expected, he traveled deep into the cavern, despite fearing what might happen to him. Though it was very dark, Kai had been using his bat ears to guide him, without using his eyes. (This might be considered an instinct, as he has never actually used them before) When he stumbled upon the heart of the cavern, he encountered a rocky well that constantly spewed a dark aura, but got stronger as he approached it. When he was an inch away, it suddenly "attacked" him, and knocked him against the wall, his body covered in the aura. He was left unconsicious for at least an entire day. And as that day passed, his own soul was being tainted by some form of an entity that inserted its spirit into Kai. When he came to, the world seemed so different:his eyesight had dramatically improved, as he could see right through the dark shadows of the cave. He was dazed, though, as he walked right out of the cave, and into scorching sunlight!. He was forced to run back inside as the light was hadzardous to him.

"What in the world?!"

He had no idea what had happened to him. Why did the sun burn so much? What reason was there to fear it? Nothing was wrong up until now. HIs memory was a bit hazy, but he happened to remember that aura he encountered.....

"....It c-can't be....no..."

It would seem that that the enigma had cursed him, not just gave him better vision. At dusk, he was able to exit the cave at last, and ran all the way home, just thinking about it, he was already there in mere seconds! He ran smack into a wall, and slipped down on the floor, unconsious again. He awoke later in his bedroom, his mother tending his wounds. He was heavily relieved that he was back home, but his mother wondered why, and how he got home without being noticed. Whatever happened on the day....was one that would haunt him for the rest of his life....

At age 15, Kai graduated from school, though it was quite hard from all the racism he fought. Throughout his entire school years, he had only befriended one student named Kyra. Though also a demon, she usually kept that a secret with her magic. She had felt pity for the bacoon being discrimanted by his mixed heritage. He als was being called a freak rodent frequently. In fact, it was the only name anyone ever called him, it was because relationship between 2 different species was considered unnatural or disgusting. But because of this racism, Kai's rage began to emerge. During the years, the darkness from within was beginning to rise up until the point where he began fatally woudning those who hated him. He could not stand the thought of everyone targeting about what he was. This caused him to suffer a bi-polar effect, where the slightest insult makes him snap. Only his friend Kyra has stood by his side the entire time. He attended to the Spara Academy at age 16 in order to make use of his demonic power. Though very arrogant and sensitive, he had the power and determination neccesary to become a warrior. His bi-polar defect was a serious flaw to work out. One year later, that flaw was exerted and controlled. Kai returned to his home in Aretha to reunite with his parents. Much to his chargin however, he found his old home burned to the ground. He found his mother suffering from severe burns... Someone tried to kill his parents! But who? Kai desperately to get his mother to the hospital to save her. Unfortunately, she died before he could do so. Rather, she died smiling. She seemed proud at the growth and accomplishment of her son. This event caused his bi-polar effect to resurface. He vowed revenge against those who killed her, even though that was against her wish. He felt that he needed to expel his anger before it manifested. He found leads on the criminals, leading him to the rat mafia. He tracked them down at an underground location. He didn't care how many of them there were, nor did he care what weapons they carried. The only thing tha mattered to him was revenge. Kai managed to gut 10 people down before being riddled with bullets. If anything at all, they only pinched, whereas mortals would have spilled gallons of blood. His zweihander sliced through the rodents violently, splattering blood everywhere. No matter how much they out numbered him, his rage saw through his victory. The true boss of the mafia emerged, and preemptively shot a rocket aimed at his head. It was a direct hit. When the dust cleared, Kai was face first on the ground, thought to have been dead. But that darkness within grew stronger, causing him to revive. This time, his left arm transformed, and his left eye became blood red. This was a sing that Kai was more and more, succumbing to his inner despair. His arm, now a talon, Kai lashed out at him and lacerated the boss's chest open. Finally, his vengance was complete....but....Kai had realized what power had he just unleashed. His mother told him not to steep lower than them, but he did...he was no better than the mafia.

"Damn..." He fell to the floor, completely devastated by his massacre. He look as his hand an talon, which soaked in the disgusting blood of his enemies. He had disgraced everything he had and gained. Taking his zweihander, he smashed it to pieces, knowing that he not used an abused blade. He went against mother's wishes, even in her death, but he was simply too truamatized. He returned to Spara in order to contain that darkness which he unleased...hoping that that same power would not accidently hurt an innocent person....
As the moths passed, Kai had been facing evil once more, this time, in the form of a demonic sword known as Soul Edge, who seeked to only consume and destroy. It wouldn't be long before the baccoon would come face-to-face with his older brother, Raylon Chronaius. Though it seemed he was on the side of good, he declared he was on neither, and that he was intent on 'maintaining balance' on Terra. He then asked Raylon about their father. He simply said 'he disappeared from the world'. Then, the elder brother said he wanted to confirm if he really was the second son of Nicholas. The two engaged in a sword duel immediately, matching each other move for move. In fact, their moves had mirrored each others' altogether, as if  they knew the same exact moves.

'Answer me this question, Kai: did you gain such fighting knowledge from a tiger named Seto-sama'

'! Yeah, why?''

'Heh....then we really do have much alike, brother. You have skill, but, can you back that up with power?'

Raylon's batte style had shifted, now using magic against his brethren. Kai had no idea how he was able to wield such power so masterfully; he was now launching fire-based attacks against him.

'Come one, little brother, if you really do have any Raiju in you, then fight back with it!'

'Tch, Alright then if that's the way you want it....'

Kai surged his blade with electrcity,, finally countering his brother's burning sword, but alas, their duel would end an a draw when they are interrupted by a new foe who was seeking Raylon's possession of a particular shard. It came in the form of a female feline with scales scattered on her furry body, but Kai sense that this new presence was quite amorphus in nature; she didn't have a real body. She asked only once for the shard...

'What is your business here, woman?' Raylon asked. However, in a rude manner, she attacked Raylon, then Kai by extending hidden claws, and lashing them at the brotherly duo, easily evaded it. The two found themsleves working together to fight off this new threat. It seemed to be quite difficult to fight her head on, as her body was able to move and flow through the blades of Kai and Raylon. It was like literally slashing liquid.. Nothing seemed to damage her, though her clothes were being ripped and burned from the yoki powers of the two demons. The fight lasted for an hour before Kai was beginning to exhaust himself; he was investing as much of his power into the fight, trying to keep in sync with his older brother. The fight eventually halted when Kyra interfered and casted a spell to freeze the enemy, incapcitating her. Kai took one swift slash and cut down the woman in two halves. Raylon then approached the two and stared at Kai

'Hm, though you do not realize your true pontenial yet, Kai, you do have admirable concentration, something only our master Seto would have taught us, but you however, you showed taht you cared...did you give yourself the illusion that you were trying to defeat her yourself?'

'I........I still want to know; why hadn't you shown up earlier?'

'Because I cannot bring myself to interfere with balance of nature on Terra. I only seek to maintain it, thus, I take which side is needed the most. You, Kai, were in need to know a little more about your inner demons. You've only shown a bit of what you're really able accomplish.' He turned to leave and then...

'We will finish our duel, little brother, but as of now, we should go our seperate ways and take care of the situation at hand: Soul Edge.' With that, he disappeared in a bright flash

'.....'

'You alright, Kai?'

'I just.....'

Kai had now only just learned of his brother, and realised that the darkness that he had been trying to seal away was going to be needed. Faust was right; he would need to embrace his yoki powers, but Kai didn't know if he was quite ready to accep the power given to him. He was afraid of losing his mind, afraid that he might make a mistake and go berserk again, just like with the mafia.

'Look, Kai, I'll show you something that you might need to see.' Kyra led Kai to a cavern containing the lost, forgotten souls of Terra.

'Kyra, what's going on?'

'Kai....I need to confess....I had just learned of now...before I came to help you back there, I came here, looking for my father...he died, adn it was from him I....'

The ghastly lights in the cavern manifested into one large mass of light. The light faded and revealed an adult tanuki; one that he only recognized as...

'Father!'

Nicholas approached his sonand stopped to look at him. A smile crossed his face.

'I seen you have grown much, my son.'

'Father, I....'

'It is alright. It is my fault for abandoning you and your brother in your mothers' times of need. I was always been pulled away from you because I had to take of threats that might killed you and Raylon, along with your mother. There was a man who camt to Terra, though he appeared to be human, he was quite abnormal. He called himself Sephiroth, and he declared that he wanted to take this planet as his own...no....he was searching for a means to actually replace this world with one of his own. Of course I was able to confront him. When I defeated him, I was too late though, my first wife was killed in an incident when she transformed on a full moon. I couldn't bring myself to come back to Raylon because I feared he'd resent me for not being able to help......so I traveled to Aretha in hopes of disappearing and being forgotten, and forgetting about my mistake, but I was too naive. That was when I met your mother. I believed that lightning never striked in two places, but apparently, I believed wrong. The same time your mother was killed, was the same time I was....I defeated a nekomata in self-defense when I accidently stumbled upon a village. But that's when your friend....'

'What are you saying, father?'

Kyra looked at him in the eye, she bit her lips, and then said fearfully...

'I......I killed Nicholas...'

Kai twitched at the sound of that phrase...all this time, the slayer of her father was in fact her best friend all this time. He fell on one knee, and remained silent for a while, as so did the rest, then Raylon appeared and saw Nicholas standing before his son

'So, you've decided to the truth, after all, father.'

'Yes...I expect no apologizes that you would accept from me.'

'So it is only clear that I must avenge you, by slaying the nekomata.'

'!'

Raylon rushed at her, drawing his sword as he was about to cut her down. But at the instant, another blade clashed with his...

'Kai! What the hell are you doing?!'

Kai was still protecting Kyra even after hearing the truth

'But why!'

'Cease at once, Raylon!'

'Why father?!'

'Because there is more you need to know about what really happened."

Raylon relunctantly withdrew his blade, waiting for an answer...

'Kyra's father was under the influence of something. I'm not quite sure, but it was undeniably malcontent in nature. It said through him that it was searching for 'itself', and it referred to that as something called Soul Edge.'

'Soul Edge?!' Kyra and Raylon exclaimed

'Yes...but I don't think it was destroyed when I slayed him....I can still feel it out there. Kai, I know I maybe burdening you but...you must defeat that apparition; finish the job I couldn't...if that thing gets ahold of Soul Edge, who knows what kind of catastrophe it would bring by accomplishing its goal. Do you understand?'

Kai remained silent for a bit, then nodded.

'Kai, just...be careful.'

Kai finally spoke again

'Father....I'm sorry...I got mad at you about mother....'

'...Hm.'

Raylon had disappeared while Kyra followed Kai out the cavern, saying his goodbye

'Kai...I just....'

'It's alright, Kyra...if it's okay with Father, it's okay with me.'

Kyra started sobbing a bit and then ran to Kai and hugged him tight. Tears trickled down her cheeks; Kai had never seen her this way before, but it must have been pretty hard on her to have made such a mistake. It reminded him of the time when he ignored his mother's wishes. Then, he hugged her back. She was pleading her apologizes so much that she coughed and she fell on her knees, Kai still hugged her close

'Don't cry....It's alright...I made a mistake, too....'

The next day, Kai met up with his aquiantance, Faust, who had something to tell him

'Kai, have you seen a woman that looks like a cat with scales?'

'Yeah, just yesterday. Picked a fight with me and my brother.'

'Brother?....Anyway, that woman you encountered was another Shadow Anthrope.'

'Another one?'

'Yeah, like me, she, too, was subjected to the same experiments. But since she was the first, she wasn't as fortunate as I was. Her name is Sorela Xeno, and she's searching for a cure to undo the damage on her. Apparently, she's gone insane and she's hoping Soul Edge will restore her to her normal form.'

'Wait a second! Then.....'

'What?'

'I was just thinking....Soul Edge....Soul Edge has a conscience of its own, and probably found its way to Sorela's desires...what if, maybe....'

'Have you been doing some reading?'

'Kind of...perhaps Sorela has already been possessed by such, but she isn't aware of it, somehow...but even so, it wouldn't matter, I already destroyed her.'

'You haven't.'

'What?!' Kai said in surprise

'Sorela is no ordinary being, not before she was injected with that mutagen... the professor who was in charge had had inserted a serum that would cause her body to collapse and fall apart at the molecule level, reducing her to nothing more than a solvent, a liquid without mass. But somehow, she was able to gain a new, more primal form reflecting her rage and lust for vengance. With her amorphus state, she could assume any shape she desired, even one to boost her strentgh or speed. I found recorded data and videos explaining what had happened to prior and after the accident. In one video, it was shown she was frozen after the serum was given to her, then she was put into a cryogenic state....it might have proven to keep her completely incapacitiated, but she somehow melted her way through the imprisoning ice; that was when she raided the lab and killed all she encountered before she met the source of her problems: Guntram. In her rage, she slaughtered him without hesitation. One other video saw her wrecking whatever came into sight. It was quite horrible, but I can understand, since I'm of her kind. You know the rest.'

'Hm. Is there anyway we can actually stop her, convince her that she may be doing the wrong thing?'

'There is...but it's risky. A void called Paradeoxys allows one to see into his or her own heart and reveal what can possibly come out of what they try to accomplish, both good and bad. But be warned, if two energies should collide within this void, anything could happen, so be careful if you attempt to stop Sorela.'

Misc. events transpire, following the battle of Paradeoxys with Sorela, who was possessed by Soul Edge. Their battle resulted in spawning two manifestations of the combantants, which one was taken by Kai himself, who had taken a big blow after being impaled. This manifestation had come in the form of a shapeless liquid that would soon become both sentinent and an ally named Kia. No one knows what really became of Sorela after she was defeated and left in the Paradeoxys, but Kai hoped that she would recover from her injuries, and her madness. A year later, Kai meets face-to-face with a purple hedgehog who comes to claim she knows him. As a matter a fact, she annouced to him that they were married. But how? Kai had never even seen this woman before, and yet, a strange feeling welled up inside him, as if he DID know her. It was even more stranger when she said she bore the same last name as he: Chronaius. Was he....really married? The hedgehog named Ciara told him he had reincarnated sometime after his 'death'. He then talked to Kyra about it...and she finally found the shocking truth; Kai and Kyra had originally came from the same world as she did, but they weren't demons..they weren't feared...they were heroes. Kai had thought about this marriage for a while before considering to come to terms with this. He once again found that feeling within him, but it was stronger. This time...it was love, and it was the first time in this lifetime he found a warm place in his heart. Months passed as Ciara had disappeared once more, but when she returned, she wasn't exactly the same person she was; she was much more independant, ambitiuos, but still the same Ciara he knew, but to top if off, she was no longer a hedgehog, but a cat.....and Kai wondered....was this how his father felt when he loved? He understanded now why he was so catiuos in protecting him and his own father, but hopefully, he would not make the same mistake.

Kai finally settles down lives a normal life, raising his children, usually spending most of his time with Nathan. Things go down in the family as three of of the four have problems with their inner demons, the exception being the youngest, Lola. Kai then discovers his insight when he suprisingly explains the responisbilities of their power, something he didn't have in his childhood.

A year later, Kai discovers more about his past life, beyond the hedgehog. It was in fact, according to the Fried Archives, Kai was really a gryphon deity. It is unknown what really happened back then, but he would get to the bottom of it.
After gathering whatever info he had of his hedgehog life, Kai decided to prepare for the upcoming battle against the new threat, Sepre, a clone of his own father, who desired to wipe out every single blood relation to the Chronaius family. The ensuing battle causes a paradox that effects Kai himself, and disappears. After a few months later, he returned in a new form, and, in charge of a group of rogue fighters, friends and allies from his past life, a group called the Heart of Twlight. It is unknown what their intentions really are...

Secondary Weapon(s): Nilhil's Blade - A black-bladed scythe that can be summoned from his pocket dimension which is primarily used to finish off an opponent or shatter an opponent's guard

----------------------------------

Abilities:

Flight - Granted by his owl wings, he can take to the air for a short period of time or glide

Chaos - A reality-bending power utilized from the Gilgamesh dimension, his own personal power. Ichiro was created to bend the laws of physics to gain a number of extra abilities such as metamorphisis or relocation and to obtain his scythe weapon. Depending on the usage of Chaos, his wings and stamina will decrease. The more Chaos he uses, the weaker he becomes. If he completely exhausts himself, he will be cast back into Gilgamesh. The pentogram on his back will radiate and burn which indicates the Chaos is in use. Also, a shadowy aura with a silver flame appear around him

------------------------------------

Arcana:

Chaos' Circle - The main source of his main Arcana, represented by a emblem of the same design as the one on his back, whereas he utilizes his Chaos power. These are the following:

Fissure - Grenade-like energy spears fired from the ground

Discharge -  Bullets of lightning rain upon the circle. Useful for attacking multiple opponents

Skewer - Energy spears surround the circle before striking the opponent

Cut - Energy swipes surround before attacking the opponent

Charge - An orb appears in the sphere to protect the user while the wings unfurl. From there, they can be used to fuel the Chaos

Transform - Similar to Charge initially, but expands by transforming into a feral beast state. This one rapidly exhausts the user

Finish - A simple slash from the scythe used to finish off an opponent, and used very rare

--------------------------------------
Weakness: Extremely low defense

Personality: Ichiro is usually described as a 'loner with compassion', usually quiet most of them time, but lends a hand when needed. He does as hard as he can to be the opposite of what he was originally created to, but because of people misleading to believe he is a monster, he keeps quiet until he is able to prove them wrong. Popularity? Fame? Glory? Power? This means nothing to him. The only thing that matters to him is making something out of himself: someone that can't be feared, instead, be relied on and trusted

Enemies: None at the moment

Backstory: Ichiro was the result of energy being manisfested by instability and greed. There was a Friean canine alchemist who wanted to control which was thought that could not be controlled. He tried to gain command of the Gilgamesh power, Chaos, which was one of the more powerful energies of that plane. But no matter how many times he tried, its unstable properties were simply out of control for him, which in these failed attempts gave him gashses and burns, his entire upper body covered in bloody bandages. All this time, it hadn't occured to him then, though an alchemist could not hope to mainpulate it, only a being created just for that power could actually wield it. It took a lot of his magic prowess and knowledge to build and manifest one who would be able control it. Eventually, on Feburary 8th, near the hour of twilight, a creature representing the three natures of Chaos was born. He decided to name this one Ichiro, as he was the first of successful attempts he would make at creating the energies in the Gilgamesh dimension. However, there were two things he overlooked: 1, creating artificial life was prohibited, and 2, he forgot to cast the spell to actually obey his orders, and to make matters worse, a soul had crossed between the planes and inhabitied. Ichiro had no idea what was going on or why he was there, so he blasted out of the circle in which spawned him, fleeing to be free. The fool, he had just released a powerful entity, unchained from the confines of the Gilgamesh. To the alchemist, it was more like a winged catastrophe. He decided to make haste the following week and make other artificial soldiers of Gilgamesh to retrieve Ichiro so he can cast the spell to put him under control. Ichiro, on the other hand, was lost for answers of who or what he was and decided to cause havoc upon. He was founded by a vampiric tanuki named Raylon, who happened to be nearby. Understanding what ordeal he was going through, he took him in his care after incapcitating him.. Raylon sensed the that this one was in anguish, anxious and confused. Despite his cold nature, Raylon took good care of him. Ichiro said that didn't he didn't actually mean to destroy in the first place, his Chaos power was not in check, so Raylon sought to contain another catastrophe by helping the creature to possess and utilize his power. The authorities looking for alchemist were on full patrol with this one, so Raylon needed to keep him in secret so they wouldn't banish the soul inside the boy. It took a painstaking year until Ichiro was able to keep his powers in check. At that point....

'Ichiro, at this point, you must learn to be independant and fend for yourself for now on'

'Wha?'

'There isn't much I can teach at this point. What will you do now is up to you.'

'....'

'I've taught you all that you've needed to know, but as a creature of Chaos, your decision is yours, and no one else can change it. Will you do bad or do good? The line between that is always unclear, but you know what I told you of that'

'If you do bad, people will regard you as a menace, a threat, a monster. If you do good, there will people who grow jealous of your services because of the gratitdue you gain.'

'Precisely.'

'I don't want others to see I'm a monster. I have to prove them wrong, I have to show them I'm not just another abomination without a conscience, but how can I do that if people don't know if it's me, the so-called monster saving everyone's lives?'

'That's something you'll have to figure out on your own'

He had a feeling he wasn't going to like what was the answer however, but he had the choice to figure it out....

Her expression seems to be devoid of soul or completely lost., but she has the feeling someone is looking for her, but not the hostile kind she had come to be used to

Enemies: Soul Edge, formally Kai and Raylon Chronaius

Backstory:  Nothing is pretty much known about her life prior to the incident that happened many years ago, name and family origins unknown. She was subject to the 'Shadow Anthrope' project in which she had her memory erased and her DNA completely altered and tampered with. The lead scientist named Guntram IV was the one she spent the most with, always inspecting her progress in becoming this new creature. When all the scientists left the lab, she usually give totured everytime they failed. Why hadn't they suffered when the project herself did? After a few years of failed research, they rejected the project in favor of a new test subject while her body was liquified with another serum used specifiaclly for failed experiments such as herself and was left in a cryogenic stasis. All this time while it was happening, she was finally sick of Guntram, and she once vowed to kill him because of the pain he induced on her. Though without a memory, Sorela was still suspectible to being tainted from being mistreated so badly that she finally went insane, but because she was sealed off and moved aside for another 'Shadow Anthrope', she probably would not get her revenge at all. This rage welled up inside her as her 'body' melted through the ice because her molecules were accelarating fast enough to burn through ice. She managed to escape her stasis and took on the form of a feral chimera, frantically searching for Guntram, and killing anyone in sight. The lab was immediately switched to emergency mode, which caused a lockdown hoping to seal her inside, but she simply 'moved through' the defenses. She finally broke through before finally meeting Guntram face-to-face. He also had an explosive projectile weapon aimed at her head before firing it, and making contact, which resulted in an explosion and caused Sorela to collapse in a heap of liquid. That would have assured her death, had not Sorela's rage allowed her to evovle her body because the weapon was made to destabalize her altogether, but she appeared resiliant to it. She reformed into her feral state and lacerated Guntram before he could fire another round. Even though she got her revenge, it didn't help the fact that she remained insane, as felt the need to inflict more pain, especially for those that were 'normal'. She was a mere creature now, a once normal Anthrope forced to become a dangerous creature that would prove a menace to society. Her 'curse' had given her powers that allow her live through the ages. 7 years later, Sorela comes across shards of a blade that had an evil aura cling to them. When she attmpted to absorb them, she was for the first time, tainted. Sorela had only been driven mad, but not neccesarily corrupted until now. But was pecuilar was that her 'mentality' had not been effected, as if the shards tried to control her. They couldn't. Sorela now taken on the form of a reptilian feline as she tried living among society, until she could find a cure and free herself from the curse, because she knew that science couldn't do it, but instead, she decided to search notable figures in Aretha for them. If they did not hand them over willingly, they would have to die for it...

Though she did acquire the full blade, she was instantly possessed by it..becoming a monstrosity reflected in her own image of rage. Through its influence, she started a rampage toward any nearby cities, unfortunate was Aretha. Eventually, the blade came face-to-face with Kai once more, who had seemingly grown stronger since their first encounter. The baccoon made a bet that if it could beat him at Paradeoxys, it would get more than his soul. Agreeing to the debt, Sorela and Kai met up at the void where the fated battle would commence. The fight was furious and intense, the 'ground' below them shaking violently ewith every strike. Eventually, the two would clash twice with their energies colliding twice. The second time around completely shattered the blade while Kai dealt the final blow by using his Arcana, Omni Blitz Wave, which completely knocked Sorela unconscious, but not before she delivered a near-fatal blow to him. For months, Sreola would be haunted by her own inner demons while in the coma. She couldn't take it anymore as she finally awoke. She found herself in her liquid state in a cavern, completely relieved it was over, though she could still hear those echoes. Reforming to her more familiar form, she left the cave as she was invited by a warm sunshine. She was still left in this 'cursed' state, but she began to ponder until she was deep within her own thoughts.

'......I'

The encounter left her nearly mute. She then had the feeling someone was waiting for her....but who? Moments later, she found herelf in an unknown land vast in the distance of fog and land...because she didn't know exactly know what to do next, she slumped back into a puddle, still engulfed in her thoughts, but now they were about the enigma in her mind. She didn't really mind what happened now...it was best she waited it out but still couldnt help but wonder:

Abilities:

Demon Flames - Kyra's clan has the inheritant special ability to manifest and control demonic flames that are more than capable than harm alone. For Kyra, she uses the flames to animate decomposing material. She also uses the flames in many forms such as defense barriers and the like.

Shapeshifting - Unlike most of her half-breed neighbors, Kyra is a full-fledged demon. While her base form is that of a female young adult, her actual form is that of a large feline sporting a black mane similar to her hair in her 'natural' form. The Unholy Flames engulf the tips of her tails and her fore and hind paws. While in this state, her demon power is far more expressive and even though she is a bit animalistic in nature, she retains her psyche and ability to speak. She can also assume a housecat form for a disguise.

Family: Father (deceased) Youchi (mother, whereabouts unknown)

Friends: Kai Chronaius, Ciara Chronaius, Faust, Keizye, Kia

Rivals: None

Personality: Despite being the only full-blooded demon around her friends, she's more of the friendly, easygoing type. One thing stands still for her: she's willing to serve the Chronaius family however she can, due to the pact she willingly made with Youni in order to be a little closer to Kai. Because Kai is her best friend, she is willing to throw her life on the line for him, but not out of the agreement, but because of emotional attachment which is unusual for demons. She also seems to have deep feelings for Faust.

Enemies: None

Backstory: Kyra was born into a secluded tribe just outside the Aretha grounds deep in the forest. In her early years, she had been raised by her parents, who at the time, was having conflicts with one another on occasion. This seemed to get in the way of her education, in which she was supposed to have been learning how to use her demonic powers for future use and protection. Because of this, she left the tribe on such short notice at age 168, being fed up with her parents' ever growing conflict and headed to the nearby town of Kyru. There, she hoped to find a black arts practioner in order to learn more about her power. 6 months later, she is successful in finding one particular sorcerer. Though he kept his face hidden, he looked like something of a dragon and fennec. He welcomed her to be trained in the dark arts, in order to find out about what she was. 5 years later, she completed her training, now able to use her shapeshifting power to blend in with society, though she had not intended to cope with them just yet. When she returned to her tribe, something big was going down. Her father was battling a tanuki who had stumbled into their territory. Kyra tried to interfere, but her breathren told her to stay back. Unfortunately, her father was killed in that battle. Enraged, she lashed out at the winner, transformed into her demonic state and promised to rip him apart. So she did.....but.....she had realised that she had embraced something that she never wished had: vengence. She had used that same force that her own parents used against each other. She decided to leave her tribe for good, unable to cope with the loss of her father...She departed for Aretha, which ended up being a 5-month long journey. When she arrived, she decided to attend to educational school, where mortals gained their knowledge. Her plan was to cope with them, trying to forget about life as a demon. It was already a hellhole having such a harsh childhood, but, blending in with these beings, looking like one of them could help. During her school years, she spotted a half-demon, who excluded himself from the rest of the crowd, as they discriminated his mixed heritage. For some strange reason, she felt pity for him, something that a demon rarely encounters. She also felt a demonic essence within him, though he never spoke about it.

"So....where are you from?" She asked

"Who wants to know? Want to make fun of that, too?" He responded darkly

"Oh...I'm sorry.....what's your name?"

"........................Kai.........."

"Hm....nice to meet you, Kai. I'm Kyra."

"Huh?"

"Don't worry, I don't bite, at least, not nice people, or.....never mind."

"Why do you want to talk to me?"

"I'm trying to be your friend, dummy!"

"Wha?" He looked at her in great surprise. No one ever considered being his friend

After that school day..

"So, you're a half-breed, huh? What's so bad about that?" Kyra wondered

"You must be new around here....Aretha....just doesn't like us 'half-breeds'. They think of us as monsters, freaks of nature, because of our mixed heritage. Some even go out and say it's unsanitary...."

"Damn....never knew you had it so tough."

"So what's your story?"

"I'm just someone who needs to get away from my troubles for a bit. Well...you may have already known, but, I am a demon."

"Yes....I sensed it....but why would a demon sympathize for someone else? Let alone me?"

"Why a half-demon let it get to his head?"

"I......"

"Don't worry about it...I have my problems too."

"......So.....about that 'friend' thing....."

From that point on, both promised each other to be at each other's side, no matter the circumstances. She graduated and attended the Black Arts Academy where she began to develop her powers further, but still...still thinking about Kai. Both had went their seperate ways to make use of their powers, and one day....meet up again and consider to band together to do something about the world.

Sometime after, Kyra was left to do what she pleased. However she began to worry about the identity of the raccoon dog she killed years ago. Kai had mentioned that his father was of the same species. Anxious to know whether or not she made a mistake, Kyra headed to the one place she knew to find her answers: Tavern of Souls. It was there that she met the demon whom she killed out of anger. The soul she was searching for manifested into a transparent version of the one she saw take away her father.

'Why have you come to this place in order to seek me? Did you not want to visit your father?'

'No...I didn't really. In fact, I needed to know something but first, what's your name?'

'If you want to call me someone, it is Nicholas.'

'Sir, I must know: do you have a son?' She gulped slightly, ready for the anwser.

'........Yes......it is my fault now I am unable to protect him..but if you dare touch him I'll-'

'I need to know, what is his name!'

'Your voice, why does it tremble with fear so? Do you feel afraid he may be someone you fear?'

'I....'

'If you must know, he is named Kai. So what is your business with him?'

'......'

The sound of the name had shocked her greatly. Kyra had just found she had accidentily killed her best friend's father, and it was all because of her rage....her mindless rage.

'Oh no no no no...no.' It was all she could utter now for she was left without words

'What is the matter? You fear the spectral powers I possess?'

'No..no.......I'm sorry...I.....Kai....he's my closest friend....I didn't know you were his father...I'm so sorry....so stupid...just like my father....just like him.'

'My son...Kai...has a friend? A demon?'

'It's true...stupid me....' Kyra slowly rose to her feet, wiping a tear away from her eye. She stared straight into Youni's soul, who was filled with satisfaction

'Sir, if I could, I would like to make amends for my impulsive actions. Name the deal and I'll do.'

'Lady, that is not neccesary. You have already done enough, having befriended my son. I have been watching over him from time to time. I thought I never see him being comfortable around anyone else seeing that he is a half-breed. For people like him to live a life of discrimination is a harsh fate to behold. For a demon such as yourself to have been friends with Kai comforts my soul.'

'...But....I still think I shouldn't be left off the hook.........Kai's gonna be pissed, but I have no choice. Sir, should I tell him?'

'When you think the time is right.'

'.....Right.'

'By the way, lady: what is your name?'

'Kylius Hesto...that's my real name'

'Then, Kylius, go forth and do whatever it is you must do.'

Kyra left. She was still worried about how Kai would take the truth and that time would have to come soon if her relationship with him was going remain. That day came when she arrived to assist him in defeating an unknown foe. She had taken a lot of thought about and decided now was the time. When she told him the whole truth, Kai was shocked about the news as expected, but what confused her the most was Kai's choice to still defend her, even from Raylon, Kai's older half brother, who had discovered the truth. Kai confirmed that it didn't matter now. Knowing that he had a friend was all that he needed. It was that first time Kyra truly cried for someone else. Kyra vowed to be with Kai as his closest friend forever. Ever since then, Kyra has lived with Kai until she could afford her own house, while Kai inherited his mother's mild fortune. Kyra had always been around Kai and treated whatever wounds were inflicted on him. Eventually she laid her eyes on a strange creature who went by the name of Faust. She didn't know quite what it was exactly, but she felt drawn to him. Occasionally, she would blush around his presence and trying to get to know him as much as possible. However, she was not able to spend a lot of time around him since he was busy elsewhere.

When Faust was beginning to undergo his transformation, Kyra relunctantly sealed him away in a cave, without saying a word. While she trekked along, she found a girl unconcious on the ground. Kyra noticed that her scent was not that of a traditional beast. It wasn't flesh she was smelling, more like

'A chemical. And it smells like metal...it wouldn't feel right to just leave her out in the middle of this place though.'

Kyra changed to her demon form and nudged the unconscious creature. She showed signs of life but didn't open her eyes. She looked for something to reach and ended up rubbing Kyra's snout.

'Faust? Where is Faust? Take...me...to him...' She tried to speak

'You know Faust?' She asked. The girl dragged herself over and stopped beside Kyra.

'Come on, get on my back.' The girl struggled and finally got on but fainted again after that.

'What is this creature? I don't think I've seen her around before, and how does she know Faust? Only one way to find out.'

Kyra headed back to the entrance of the cave where Faust was. He still hadn't come out. She decided to rest her eyes a bit, but ended up falling asleep. She awoke later to find Faust in front of her, possessing a new form. He seemed to bear a resemblance to Kai, except that he had both wings, but they resembled a crow's. These were not the wings of angel. It appeared to be that of a Shadow Avian, something she learned about during her history courses. When Faust asked about what was going on, she explained everything she could and returned home with the girl. She then came to a conclusion that the form Faust possessed was in fact his original form, proof from the Shadow Avian blood he had, which was able to quell any forced alterations on the body, which was the Shadow Gene. Unsure of how Faust would be able to do battle now, he asked Kyra for assitance, and gleefully accepted. For 3 months, Kyra helped Faust how to tap in his new demonic powers and all seemed to move smoothly. When it was done, she decided to take a break. As Faust prepared to leave, both of the demons felt the sudden presence of another power. Before she knew, a silver tendril grabbed her neck and quickly started to constrict her.  Faust tried to run to her aid but his path was obscured when a wall of mercury abruptly rose in front of him. Kyra tried to break free, but the coil was thick as steel. Then the smell came to her: it was the same as the girl she had picked up from before.

'Don't even think of trying to escape.' It had to be her.

'Ah crap, don't tell me she thinks I'm the enemy.'

Kyra felt the ground writhe beneath he feet as a shape rose the ground. It was the shape of the girl who wanted to see Faust. Her light violet fur color was terminated by large portions of silver on her body.

'So it's a shapeshifter huh?'

'Answer me this before I kill you: What did you do to Faust?'

'What?!' Kyra was absolutely confused.

'If you will not answer, I'll--' Her sentence was cut off as a black tendril tore apart the silver coiling around Kyra's neck. The wall the blocked Faust path was demolished completely. The pieces liquified and conjoined into the unknown creature's body.

'Are you alright Kyra?'

'Yeah, just peachy.'

The shapeshifter looked in shock as her attention was focused on Faust now

'Why Faust? Why did you do that? You would...never..'

'I don't know what you're talking about, but you had no right to attack my friend like that. What's your vendetta with her?'

'But I...don't you remember who I am?' She walked towards Faust, her face writhed in sadness.

'I am sorry. I have no memory of who or what I was before I was...transformed.'

She stopped in her tracks and paused for a moment...

'It's all your FAULT!' Before she could attack Kyra,  Faust took the creature by the arm.

'!'

'Kyra is not to blame for my amnesia. This happpened before I met her.'

'Huh?' She looked to his eyes for the truth. Faust did suffer amnesia but now she knew it was not Kyra's fault. She hadn't a clue about Faust really

'I...'

Kyra walked towards the strange girl who was now on her knees. She knelt beside her, wanting to comfort her but she merely looked away

'Come on, don't be like that. Can you at least tell me what happened to you?'

'Why should I?'

'Maybe I could help.'

'How can you help me?!'

'At least let me try. After all, I did save you from being rusted out there in the middle of nowhere.'

'.....I was looking for Faust. He was my closest friend and I was his partner in battle. I devoted my life to serving him but during a Remnant battle, we were seperated for a long time and I traveled all over Terra looking for Faust.'

'Wait, then if you're from the Remnant War, then that could mean...'

'I was the Summoned One who served under Faust...ugh..' The creature writhed in pain. The silver portions on her body were beginning to rust quickly.

'My decade long travel...has taken a toll on my body. I don't know how long I'll last...I'm just glad I got to see Faust one mo----'

'Stop right there, missy!' Kyra stopped her in mid-sentence. 'Don't even go suicidal on me. You're not gonna die, not today.'

'Awww.' Kyra found it strangely adorable for some reason.

'Ah well, better leave you two alone. I gotta catch up some Zs.'

'Before you go...' Rosette turned her attention to Kyra 'I need to know the name of my savior'

'Just call meh Kyra for now.'
