Golden yellow, feral eyes and long eyelashes with a slender face and figure. Atop her head are a pair of wolf ears in the same color as her hair.

Occasionally will wear nice dresses if the occasion calls for it. Extra: - PERSONALITY Personality: Akane is certainly not the most friendly or expressive person you'll meet. She comes across as cold and abrasive at first. Rarely the type to strike up a conversation for the fun of it, Akane prefers to keep to herself if she can. Always with her guard up, she doesn't come to trust others easily, having been betrayed and abandoned by those who were supposed to care for her, she's reluctant to give others her trust and affection, especially humans or other daemons like herself. Although Akane has high walls, they aren't impenetrable. The key is to show Akane through actions you won't harm or discriminate against her. All Akane wants is to meet people that can accept her for her. Not fear or hate her for where she comes from or for who she is. When Akane finds people like that, she is incredibly loyal and will protect and fight for them. She's much warmer and more talkative around people she's opened up to. She will talk at length about the things she likes and what she's passionate about and even crack an occasional joke. Normally, she will try to avoid social interactions like the plague. She much prefers a quiet, bar over a noisy nightclub. Akane is someone who has a few vices she enjoys. Such as drinking and smoking. Drinking helps her unwind and smoking helps her relieve stress. However, she doesn't smoke nicotine, instead, it's a mix of herbs from her home country that she found to have a strangely calming effect on the effects of a daemon's obscura. Outside of those things, Akane is very much a foodie. Not a very picky eater, she likes most foods, especially meats. Nothing is better than some juicy meat skewers with a cold beer. Offer to buy her food and she'll be more likely to drop her guard with you. Speaking of unwinding, Akane likes to spend her free time in quiet places like peaceful shrines, or empty bars to enjoy a drink and the vibe of the place. It's in those times she feels at peace. Akane is very much a "lone wolf" type. She's also a very hard worker. Anything Akane sets out to do, she will never fail to see it through to the end. On another note, she's incredibly stubborn, once her mind is made up about something or someone, good luck getting her to change it. Akane tries very hard not to let her Obscura take hold, she's seen what's she capable of when it does and it scares her. For what it's worth, despite her anger issues and her penchant for violence, Akane doesn't want to hurt others. That is unless they hurt her or someone she cares about first. When her Obscura does manage to take hold, Akane is like a loose cannon. You never know how far she'll go or how violent. Her way of speaking changes to a more outwardly aggressive tone as opposed to her usual indifference or monotone. Her vocabulary becomes more vulgar. At times like this, Akane will use her fists before her words more often than not. Having few personal relationships, Akane is oblivious to most social norms and etiquette nor does she care to learn them unless it becomes necessary. Because of this, she speaks her mind without mincing her words. If she thinks something, she'll tell it like it is. This makes her often come across as rude or tactless. When it comes to things like romance and intimate relationships, Akane isn't the type to fall head over heels for a pretty face. She watched how her mother spent years waiting for her deadbeat dad who never showed up. So she wants to avoid ending up like her mother. If Akane was to get into that type of relationship someday, it would be with someone she had known for a long time and could trust completely. Likes: Quiet Places, Alcohol, Meat, Rainy Days, Bars, Nature. Dislikes: Humans, Daemons, Violence, Ignorance, Stupidity, Luxury. Motivations: Control, Stability, Money, Revenge, Friends Fears: Herself, Betrayal, Death, Being Persecuted. STATISTICS Speed: 5 Constitution: 5 Endurance: 4 Intelligence: 11 MAGIC  Magic Name: Nullification Magic Magic Element: Arcane Magic Category: Single Magic Enhancement: - Magic Description: Nullification Magic is utilized for nullifying any magical attacks within an area from the user. The user has no actual spells for this magic except for a single spell which allows to negate any spell within a certain radius of them at the same cost of mana as is incoming in that radius. The user can use the spell to nullify an A-rank spell, even if they are only D-rank themselves, as long as they can pay the amount of mana to cast the spell after any mana reduction they have. The Nullification spell becomes easier to use depending on the rank of the user. While it requires movements at first, eventually the user becomes capable of nullifying anything without using any motion the moment it comes into their range. Effect:
HISTORY History: Akane grew up in the slums of Yaezu Port of the Joyan Shogunate. Born in a brothel where her mother worked as a courtesan, Akane never knew her father, other than the fact he wasn't human. He had been a customer of her mother's, promising to buy her out of the brothel and marry her. Instead, he left Izumi with her non-human daughter. A daemon is a child born of the union of a human and a demon. That's what Izumi gave birth to and even though most humans that gave birth to a demon's spawn feared their children, Izumi loved her daughter, naming her Akane which meant "deep crimson" in Joyan. The reason for Akane's name is that the man who gave his seed for her to be born had deep crimson eyes that her mother couldn't forget about. Life in the brothel was never easy. Most other courtesans would shun Izumi and Akane. Mainly because Izumi chose to lay with a demon and give birth to its spawn and the other reason was because Akane was that demon's spawn. Even though back then the other ladies were jealous of Izumi for having that "demon" as a customer, or so her mother told her. Growing up, Izumi would tell Akane stories of how she and her father met each other, and how her co-workers all wanted him to be their customers but he instead chose Izumi and would only see her. How he promised to come back for her someday and left Izumi with Akane. It seemed like Akane's mother was still holding onto hope that her deadbeat dad would come back to rescue them from this shithole but never once did he show his face, not even when Izumi almost died giving birth to Akane. As much as Izumi loved Akane, she barely spent any time taking care of her, especially during peak busy hours in the brothel. Akane would have to make herself scarce to not scare off potential customers and let rumors circulate that a demon spawn lived in the brothel. Her mother was one of the top 10 in the Akabane Brothel. Many men desired her and so she was always busy with customers from dawn till dusk. Akane often had to leave while the brothel was open. While outside, people who knew about Akane and her mother would whisper behind her back. Gossip-loving old ladies and housewives would warn each other to keep their children away from the "demon spawn". Why did Akane have to put up with that crap? What wrong had she done? All she did was exist, she had never harmed anyone and yet, others were always out to harm her. The kids in the neighborhood would always pick on Akane. Gang up on her and pelt her with rocks, telling her to go die or go back to her monster of a dad. One day when Akane was around 12 years old, some older boys were beating her up. Something in Akane just snapped. Her obscura which had been lying dormant, woke up. Her eyes turned a deep crimson, much like the meaning of her name, and she retaliated, beating those boys half to death before the local authorities showed up. Not wanting to get caught and worry her mother, Akane ran away once she regained her senses. After that day, Akane became increasingly violent. Anytime she overheard someone gossiping about her in hushed whispers, or kids went by mocking her, or someone spoke ill of her mother, Akane would let her obscura take hold and attack them. The level of rage and violence she committed was dependent on how bad of a mood she was in and how severe their actions were. Akane knew deep down that her retaliation towards those who mocked her or hated her was far more extreme than normal but even so, Akane did not care. It meant nothing to her. If these humans would just leave her be and not hate and shun her or her mom, Akane would have no reason to attack them. Eventually, Akane stopped coming home. She feared she might harm her mother or one of the other courtesans and cause problems for her mother. Not that she cared if those bitches died or not. In her teen years, Akane found work from the few small business owners who didn't discriminate against her for her origins. Sweeping storefronts, cleaning, washing dishes. She did various jobs all over the port. This allowed Akane to make enough money to feed herself. As for where she slept, many of her employers would allow her to rest in their homes. It was only warmth aside from her mother the young girl had received in her life. It also made Akane think that not all humans were terrible. When Akane was around 18 years old, someone from the brothel sought her out, they said it was urgent and that something had happened to her mother but without explaining the details. They simply had Akane follow them back. Upon arriving, the Ookami, mistress who ran the brothel told her that Izumi had passed away. Akane was in utter shock and disbelief. They claimed she got an illness from a customer and yet, Akane asked "If my mother was dying from a disease why wouldn't you come find me before she died?!" They didn't respond but what the Ookami said next was the final straw. She explained that now that Izumi had passed away, her debt now fell to Akane. It turned out her grandparents had sold Izumi into the brothel as a way to assuage their debts. By working there, Izumi was paying it off. And since she died before it was fully paid off, Akane, as her daughter would need to shoulder it. As if Akane had been keeping a volcano dormant in her heart, let it erupt. She manifested her Obscura fully for the first time and laid into the people in the brothel. The horrified customers fled, while Akane tore into the courtesans and the Ookami. When she eventually came to her senses, she found a bloody and horrific sight before her. Blood was all over her hands, she was terrified. Akane never knew she was capable of such an atrocity like this. With not much time to think before the authorities would show up to put her down, she ran away, not looking back. Akane went to the borders of Joya, fleeing across to avoid capture. After months of traveling on foot and camping out, she made it to another Country known as Seven. It was there she finally met her so-called father. He was some kind of rich businessman in that country. To think, he was never that far away. He immediately knew Akane was his daughter, after all, she was the spitting image of his love, Izumi yet had his eyes. Akane told him what happened and asked him why he never came back for them, How her life there was hell, and what she'd done before coming here. He felt so sorry for her and Izumi but refused to explain why he didn't keep his promise to her mom. Instead, he helped Akane get control over her daemonic powers. He was a demon of virtue and had her sign a contract with him. This would restrict her in a way that would make it harder to let her darker impulses take hold. While they lived together, her father also taught her magic. One capable of nullifying other people's magic. A couple of years went by and when Akane was around 20 years old, her father disappeared in the dead of night, leaving a note saying he had to move on and that he wished her the best. What a no-good deadbeat bastard, Akane thought to herself. With no reason to stay in Seven anymore, Akane traveled to the closest country known as the land of mages, Fiore. Because of everything she'd been through, Akane became a hunter and would use her skills to eventually track down her no-good father and beat him up for abandoning her once again. |
