Name – Sanjia Tiamatsu
Alignment – Neutral
Race – Human
Gender – Male
Age – 18
Appearance -
Stands at 6 feet tall and weighs only 135 pounds. Has long brown hair that goes down past his shoulders. Hair is kept in a ponytail and inside his hood in order to keep it out of his way. He is of average build, so people tend to underestimate his strength. Has a scar on his eye from a slash received in battle; somehow, he can still see through that eye. He has a light mustache and no beard. Most of the time, he walks upright as he keeps his eyes open for any kind of trouble. If in a place he doesn't know, he will walk slowly and not openly talk to anyone, unless he sees a reason to.
Attire – Wears a light green cloak that goes down to his knees. The sleeves go to his wrists. On the back is the symbol of his hometown, which he stitched on himself. Wears hood when outside of battle, and hood conceals part of his face. Has tan breeches to cover his legs, with a makeshift belt to hold them up. He also wears light shoes to protect his feet. Wears his brother’s necklace around his neck and his mom’s signet ring, as those are the only things reminding him of his family (more info in history).
Armor – Wears light chain mail underneath cloak and gauntlets on his hands. The mail will protect against slash and some pierce attacks, but is horrible against blunt. An arrow will not pierce the mail, but a bolt will without hesitation. the gauntlets don't protect very well; he only uses them for better grip.
Personality – When around friends, he is laid back and talks about whatever is on his mind. He sometimes trusts his friends enough to ask for their advice on certain issues. When he gets insulted by someone, he either just shrugs it off, or proposes a challenge. When he is alone and bored, he starts working to improve his skills. If someone spills something on him accidentally, he just says 'don't worry about it. it's not a big deal.' Accidents are a part of life and he knows that everyone makes mistakes. He hates people who kill for the sake of killing, but doesn't mind the people who kill bandits. He has never killed for fun, but has seen too many people doing so. If it was self-defense, then it wouldn't be a bad thing to him because people have a right to protect their life. When he sees someone killing for fun, he will confront this person and find out what was going on. He generally knows what is accidental and what is not, so he can tell if someone is lying, and if he gets attacked for trying to get info, he turns it into self-defense and fights back.
First Impression – People tend to underestimate his ability to fight, so they want to start fights quickly. People would always pick on him because he didn’t want to fight anyone. He does not start any fights when in a public place. If approached by someone, he will try to talk to the person/people and come to a non-violent agreement. Only fights if he needs to and tends to make friends easily.
Strength – For his size, he is fairly strong. Can carry more than his body weight (though not much more), and can easily knock the wind out of somebody if he hits them in the stomach. His brother used to push him to get stronger so that it would be “more of a challenge” if they ever really fought.
Vitality – He never really took many hits because of his front reflexes, so when he does get hit, it hurts. A mild hit to the chest or stomach will knock the wind out of him, and a lower-body shot will send him to the ground. Can take shots to the arms fairly well because of his strength. His magic resistance is very low, so most, if not all, magic will hurt him to an extent. ie: a fireball spell will cause mild burns to the target area.
Speed – Running errands as a small child for his mom helped improve his speed. When he got bored, he would go out for a run to get quicker and explore more. Some say he runs faster than a cheetah, but they only say that because of his quick start. When chased, he can outrun most people and can catch whoever he needs to, no matter how long it takes.
Stamina – Can run for long periods of time before tiring out. On “good” days (days he is not sick or injured), he can run for about 5 minutes before getting tired. On “bad” days (sick or injured), he can only run for about 1 minute 25 seconds before getting tired. In a fight, he can last about 3 minutes before he gets winded and forces himself to slow down. If he doesn't, then he risks making a stupid decision and getting hurt.
Reflexes – For someone that is fast, he has slow reflexes. If he sees an arrow coming straight at him, then he can avoid it. If the arrow is coming at his side, then he has to turn to find it before attempting to dodge. Tends to get shoulder injuries because of his slower side reflexes.
Fighting Style – If in battle with multiple enemies, he will pull back his hood and let his hair come out. When his weapon is drawn, he will hold it at an angle that starts at his right leg and extends out at a downward angle. Has a low stance to protect his unarmored lower body. Usually has either foot back to quicken his steps and have some extra power in his thrusts. He uses his speed in battle and looks for the opening against slower enemies. Against faster enemies, he matches speed with the opponent and sets up his attacks.
Weapons – Wields a katana with either one or both hands, depending on the battle situation. Has 7 throwing knives on his belt for if he wants to be sneaky or attack at range. Usually quick on the draw, so most can’t avoid them, even if they see it coming. The knives are thin, so that they glide through the air easier. They are about 6 inches long, which makes them easy to conceal in his belt. If straightened, the katana blade is about 30 inches long, but since it curves, it is around 27 inches long. On the handle, his father put what he calls the Demon's Star
Abilities – High Jump: Uses his speed to get an extra boost on his jumps to be able to reach those high places. Can jump over obstacles that go as high as his hips, where others can jump as high as the knees.
Magic – Does not use magic.
Other Skills – Calm: When someone is nervous, angry, etc. he has the ability to talk to them and calm them down. Uses this skill to make friends and stop potential fights when he sees them. Works about 90% of the time, so it has proven to be effective.
Free Inspiration: When the pressure is on, he remains cool and collected by taking deep breaths and channeling out the unnecessary. Helps him focus in order to prevent him from making stupid decisions.
History – Sanjia was born and raised in the village of Konpira Maru until he was 15. His dad passed away before he was born, so he was taken care of by his mother, Tiana, and his brother, Makoto. One day while he was out running his daily errands, he heard some noises coming from his village. By the time he got back. The whole area was on fire and everyone was dead. The only thing he found among the bodies and rubble was his mom’s signet ring and his brother’s necklace. Before he left, he visited his dad’s grave, as it remained untouched, and prayed. Then he found his dad’s weapon stash, consisting of his katana and throwing knives. He took the weapons, and started his journey for revenge.
While on his travels, he found some new settlements and met many new people. He finally gathered information about the group responsible for the destruction of his beloved hometown. Apparently this group, known as the Dark Brotherhood, has been terrorizing settlements for years, and nobody has been able to stop them. One person decided to follow them after a raid and found their base of operations. This information was relayed to Sanjia, and that was where he headed next.
While heading for the Dark Brotherhood “sanctuary”, he passed the remains of village after village that had been ravaged by this group. He vowed to destroy them and put an end to the madness. He found some warriors heading for the Sanctuary, and decided to join them. While in a battle, he suffered a slash to the face. The wound healed nicely and left a scar on his eye that runs down to his nose.
After many months of traveling, the group finally found the Sanctuary. The place looked deserted, but they still went in. Once inside, they decided to split up, as an easier way of locating the leader. Once the leader was found, they devised a plan to take him out. After days of planning, they decided to make their move. They snuck in during the night while they were all sleeping, and started picking off people quietly. They were not as quiet as they had hoped, however, and had the whole group against them before they knew it. After a fierce battle, the Dark Brotherhood leader had been slain, and their mission accomplished. After the battle, Sanjia went back to what remained of Konpira Maru and started his quest to rebuild it. He knows this will take a while, but he is prepared to take on this challenge.
