Yaksha Dokuja- [APPROVED]

[Yaksha]

Character

Name: Yaksha Dokuja Monevarius
Nickname: Venomous Serpent
Age (Appearance/Actual): 32/2500
Birth Date: October 30, 501 BC
Gender: Male
Non-Zanpakutō Weapon(s):
Hollow hole: (where it is) Positioned on his forehead, the hole almost seems to give the impression that Yaksha's mind is an open window.
Personality: Yaksha is an unpredictable figure, almost seeming to take pleasure from being infuriatingly hectic. He enjoys defying expectations, from the ideal of the 'savage hollow' to the 'righteous shinigami'; Yaksha feels that the greatest good he can do for the world is to push each person, to apply pressure in all the places they're weakest. Yaksha loves pulling the rug out from underneath people, watching their entire world be turned upside down, and seeing how they react. Yaksha can change his personality and his methods almost at will, able to seem like anyone he has to, to get under a person's skin.

Despite this, he's not an inherently bad person; Yaksha feels that his task in the world is to fix it, to bring failure and corruption to light, and help overcome them. Even as he drives people to tears by harping on their past, he offers them a way out, gives them a chance to fix it. Yaksha believes that the people around him need to be 'shaken up', need to have their choices and actions questioned. Yaksha feels that the people need him, need to be shown themselves and their worlds as he sees them, and though he enjoys what he does, he doesn't really harbor ill will towards others. He seems to act as if his victory is already certain, and he treats his enemies and his allies alike as part of some big game.

Yaksha has a flair for the dramatic, always trying to make a strong first impression. He refuses to do anything if he can't do it right; rather than simply eating souls, he'll drink them from a golden chalice, and rather than simply telling people what he wants to say, he dodges and weaves around it until suspense makes anything into big news. Yaksha knows well how to play people around him, and how to do things in the most memorable, effective ways. Yaksha is a soul that has seen too many soap operas, and can put a spin on just about anything.

Physical Appearance: Yaksha has a bipedal form, though he still seems to bring to mind a reptile that has learned to walk on two legs. His face is elongated, forming an almost rounded snout, and his body is very thin and lithe for his size. His mask, if someone were to get close enough to inspect it, would notice that it almost has an appearance of overlapping scales. His tongue is long and forked, able to reach several feet away from himself. He also has a tail, four feet long and flexible enough to serve as an additional limb.

Despite his appearance, Yaksha doesn't sound very primal at all. With his return to normal intellect, he has also rediscovered his old voice; a deep, rich tone that instantly puts others at ease, and almost makes it sound like he's an upper class human. He frequently wears a thick brown cloak around himself, hiding everything but his face, to ensure that when he is spotted, he doesn't immediately cause a scene.
Theme Song:
Hollow Form: (Vasto Lorde)
Bio: Born in the early 500s, Yaksha's life was fairly unremarkable; he was no prince, and no sort of knight. He, instead, began a job of compiling literature and drama from the age. Many people began to respect him, and visit his home to see the many copies of books that he had, or the stories he had to tell of his visits to the many theaters. His life, even at the age of 25, held many possibilities for the future. He was known by many as a purveyor of some of the age's finest culture.

However, some of the religious fanatics of the time began to grow infuriated with Yaksha, after various attempts to destroy the books that were an affront to god were halted by him. Time and time again, the men would approach him, decrying the stories as defamatory, and abominations to the eyes of the Lord; time and time again, Yaksha simply responded "If the Lord doesn't appreciate fine literature, that's no fault of mine." The tensions continued, as the people even began breaking into his house to attempt burning his collection, or stealing the books that they believed God wanted destroyed.

Most of these attempts were met with failure, from the combination of Yaksha's odd sleeping hours, to the many people who loved Yaksha, and cared very much for his safety. During the skirmishes, the fanatics continued to plead with bishops of varying neighboring areas to support them; to demand that the simple book keeper give up the books they felt were hurting God.

Finally, given the blessing of one man, the men entered Yaksha's home, and even as they stabbed Yaksha dead, they began to set fire to his home, hoping to claim the death of the well-known chronicler as a sacrifice to god. As the smoke and heat began to fill the room, and Yaksha's spirit left his body, he could feel nothing but a complete hatred for the ones who had so blindly chosen to destroy his efforts, in the name of their beliefs.

He watched in silence as these men went on with their lives, not a one of them tied to his death. He watched in silence as his family line died, giving him not even a nephew or niece to continue in the world. Finally, after several years, he snapped when he found a copy of one of the same books he was executed for, now being freely read among the people.

In his rage, the simple book keeper began to claw and tug at the chain that had been attached to his chest. He had no idea what would happen, but he was prepared to sacrifice even what little humanity he had left to destroy the lives of those who had gone to such lengths to ruin his own life, for such a petty and ultimately pointless goal.

The change was almost instantaneous; the beast, barely anything more than an instinctual animal. It began to track down the ones who had played a part in his death, destroying each of them and consuming their souls as they died. His fury ran white hot, overpowering all thought, as he continued to feed on anyone with a connection to the stories that had ruined his life; eventually, he even took to killing and consuming those he found reading copies of them.

Finally, after nearly a hundred years, his intelligence began to return in degrees. He began to regain the consciousness he'd once had, but like a neanderthal, he was still primal, and many of his thoughts too simple for the man he had once been. This only drove his fury and spite even further, and he began to consume anything he could find; even other hollows were subject to his hunger.

He finally evolved in the 1700s, when he consumed the dying soul of Lous XIV. His intelligence finally reached the levels it had been at before he'd let his anger and hatred consume him, and he could feel nothing but sickness at the thoughts of what he had done. Though his memories of the past were more feeling than thought, he could still tell he had killed countless people, and cut short their lives, for reasons even flimsier than the very ones that had slain him.

He began his quest for solace, constantly traveling to new places to meet anyone he could connect with. His journeys took him to some of the most remote areas of the earth, and his hunger for the souls of the dead never waned. To avoid the knowledge that he had knowingly destroyed anyone's final chance to change their lives, he dedicated himself to only consuming the beasts he had met; the ones who, like himself, had given up their intelligence for instinct, and had given away their humanity for their fleeting satisfaction.

His travels continued well into the 20th century, and he spent much of his time seeking out the wickedest humans; the ones who would've gleefully become what he had been. He began to whisper in their ears, driving a few to madness, and even to their own deaths. Before any of them could truly comprehend their new lives, he swooped in, to make certain that none of them would become as much a threat to the nightlands as they had been to the rest of the world.

The last 50 years of Yaksha's life have been surprisingly unremarkable; finally beginning to overcome the memories of what he considered his previous life, he began to create a history for himself within the real world. He managed to obtain a gigai in the early 60s, making use of it to commission the suit he now wears, and to begin making a proper life for himself. With the knowledge of his own mind and thoughts helping him along, he has managed to gain ownership of a home, where he spent most of his time catching up on the culture and history he lost in his years as a spirit.

The Beast Within

Abilities/Techniques:


Category: Racial
Number: 60
Title: Hell's Bells
Effect: This technique causes pain, swelling, and confusion in people around him. The effectiveness is based on the average of his Kido and Mind skills vs his enemy's Hankou skill.

2 Below- No Effect
1 Below- The target finds themselves slightly off-balance, as if they've had one too many to drink.
Equal- The target feels like everything is moving, even when they stand completely still. They find themselves slightly irritable.
1 Above- The target is unable to move at speeds above a walk, lest they collapse. They also begin to mistrust those around them, typically seeking ulterior motives in everything they hear.
2 Above- The target is almost entirely unable to move as the world around them races by; double vision and even synesthesia present at this point. The target becomes almost entirely unable to distinguish friend from foe.
3 Above- The target collapses, their entire body twitching as nausea is overwhelming. Those who CAN move are quite sluggish, and can hardly muster up more than a rudimentary shamble. They also begin to lash out, causing harm to everyone they see, and relying on highly destructive attacks out of irrational fear.
Incantation: N/A


Category: Cero
Number: 40
Title: Culebra Cero
Effect: By focusing reishi into his fingers, Yaksha can fire them off directly in front of him, similar to a normal cero or bala. However, it doesn't move in any sort of linear pattern, instead undulating in every direction like a snake; vertically, horizontally, diagonally, these projectiles move in waves that make it much harder to tell where they're headed. Projectiles fired this way require an agility of 1 tier higher than normal to dodge.
