Player: Dragoondawg25<br/><br/>Name: Okami Tenma<br/><br/>Alias: Demon Wolf, Bloodfang,<br/><br/>Race: Hanyō (Half Demon)<br/><br/>Sex: Male<br/><br/>Faction: Brood of the Abyss<br/><br/>Background:<br/><br/>Born during the Edo Period of 1605, Okami Tenma was incarnated through the union of a beautiful maiden brought for sacrifice to an ancient wolf god for the safety of her village and people.  Once the child was born it was plain to see that he was not normal.  For his ears were that of a canine, his mouth exhibited fangs that protruded slightly from under his upper lip, and claws for nails on his hands and feet.  Fur as black as night with hints of grey would streak through his hair and along the sides of his face signifying his heritage to those that don’t know of his name.  Red crimson eyes would stare back out at the world with a natural hate embedded within them.<br/><br/>Through out his many years Okami was taught nothing but kindness towards those that would see him differently.  With his father abandoning him, his mother was left to raise him on her own, which is till the day she was brutally murdered by the very people she told her son to always be understanding towards.  This would send Okami into a primal rage, and using his own claws and fangs he tore the entire village to shreds for the death of his beloved mother.<br/><br/>Now on his own for such a long time Okami is in search of the one serum that would make his being whole once more.  Wanting to reject the side of him that is human and focus on the part that is demon, he is charged with a bounty to slaughter 1,000,000,000,000 innocent souls to gain access to everlasting demon hood.  It has been more then 600 years since that time, and even thou the number accumulated of souls still seem small, Okami is bound and determined to show the world the ferocity within his soul.  Having honed his skills with his sword Ketsuekikiba (Blood fang), Okami now searches for a means to an end of this miserable life and a beginning of destruction.<br/><br/>Powers/Abilities:<br/><br/>Physical abilities<br/><br/>Strength<br/><br/>Okami’s demon blood gives him superhuman strength. No upper limit has yet been shown in the canon, but he is at least strong enough to easily lift a boulder with a diameter greater than the height of his body over his head with one hand, and then run vast lengths with it. Such a boulder would weigh perhaps eleven tons. He is strong enough to punch through solid steel with his bare hands.<br/><br/>Speed<br/>Okami's speed has been shown to easily exceed that of a normal horse; faster than any normal land or water animal. Due to the momentum he can accumulate in his runs, added with his incredible strength, he is able to cross great distances with a single jump. Altogether, this creates the illusion that he is flying every time he leaps.<br/><br/>Stamina<br/>Okami's stamina likewise far exceeds human standards, possibly derived from the fact that his demon blood is that of a wolf, wolves naturally having great stamina. He is shown to be able to run vast distances at extreme speeds with minimal effort, and is often seen complaining about how his comparatively weaker human companions always slow him down by needing to rest so much every day. He is also able to endure a great deal of physical pain.<br/><br/>Defensive ability<br/>Okami's physique is capable of taking a lot of damage, more than the average human, or even most demons. He appears unaffected by severe blunt force trauma, able to withstand a direct blow from a wooden log that broke on contact, and unfazed by the tremendous impact of being thrown hard enough to shatter solid rock. He also possesses tremendous resistance to sharp weapons, able to withstand attacks that slice through trees. While he can be injured by more powerful demons and holy weapons, he appears invulnerable to most human ones, able to catch normal arrows out of the air and break steel swords with his bare hands.<br/><br/>When injured, he heals far more rapidly than a human, so much so that attacks powerful enough to severely injure him are rarely fatal, as they would be to humans, if they sustained an equivalent injury. For example, he recovered quickly from numerous serious attacks, including a large fist-sized hole punched through his gut. Similarly, it seems that his internal physiology is probably significantly different from a normal human's, considering that he has been able to get up and fight despite having been impaled in places that should have resulted in his spine being severed, heart shredded and lungs destroyed had he been built anything like a human - occasionally all at the same time.<br/><br/>Senses<br/><br/>Okami's senses are highly developed, and in some ways, appear to be super-canine rather than superhuman. His senses of hearing and smell are quite likely his most powerful — he is shown to be able to hear what people are whispering from great distances. Likewise, his sense of smell is shown to be extremely sensitive - he can smell hints of blood from kilometers away and can detect the presence of people by smell long before they can be seen. His eyesight is somewhat enhanced at night, because his eyes sometimes are shown to glow, and appear to share some characteristics with cat eyes.<br/><br/>Blood Claws:<br/>When Okami is injured either by his own hands or that of his opponents, he is able to channel his demon powers through his blood that stains his hands and create dagger like energy bolts that sear into his opponent’s skin paralyzing them.  The result is an acid like touch from the blood that causes flesh to burn away and exposes the vitals for a clear strike.<br/><br/>Skills:<br/>Okami is a master of hand to hand combat with his claws and fangs.  But he has also picked up a rather interesting gift from his wayward father of so many years ago, Ketsuekikiba (Blood fang).  The sword looks much like any no-dachi when pulled from its sheath, but in the hands of its owner Okami the blade grows to the size a large bastard sword with red glowing tint from the tip to bottom of its blade.  The hilt covered in grey wolfs fur and a long red ribbon laced at the end of it.  The blade carries a destructive power within it capable of slicing buildings in half easily without marring or damaging the blade at all.<br/><br/>Gear: Ketsuekikiba with sheath, Obi, Kosode, Hitoe, Hakama (which all translates into belt shirt pants and jacket.<br/><br/>
