Character name: Kamui
Fandom: Gintama
Timeline: After the Yoshiwara arc (episode 146ish)
Age: late teens-early 20's

~*Magical*~ abilities and strengths: As a member of the Yato clan, Kamui has retarded super human strength. Super human as in kicking buildings into rubble with little to no effort. He’s a seasoned fighter with deadly martial arts skills, and is extremely dangerous due to his insatiable lust for combat. The Yato are able to heal quickly from even the most serious injuries. His only real weakness is being exposed to sunlight for extended periods of time, as the Yato have extremely pale, nearly translucent skin (One Yato fucker named Hosen shriveled up like beef jerky after being exposed to the sun because he’d lived underground and avoided it for eight years or so.) Because of this, Yato are almost always seen toting around umbrellas.

How would they use their abilities?: Honestly, he'd just start picking fights with anyone he thinks is strong so he could kick their asses, thus becoming STRONGER. Unless he finds a good job that'll let him beat shit up, but even then, the bastard loves combat.

Appearance: Kamui stands at approximately 5'6", his build could be described as skinny-athletic. The Yato are known for their pale, borderline translucent skin and are weak under direct sunlight, and because of this Kamui is often toting around a paper umbrella. His hair is salmon pinkish in color and worn in a braid that reaches his mid back. He also sports a hair antenna and chick bangs that part down the middle. His expression is usually cheerful, and he's usually seen with a pleasant smile. His eyes are bright, cerulean blue. When they're open, anyway. He dresses in Chinese style clothes, often wearing a cloak and bandages when out in the sun to protect himself.

Background/Personality:

BACKGROUND: Kamui is an amanto (aka alien), and a decedent of the Yato clan. The Yato clan is infamous for being one of the three most powerful amanto races in the universe, known for being so violent and bloodthirsty that they've all but wiped their own race out of existence through centuries of battle. They seem to have gotten a clue that maybe murdering the shit out of each other and making themselves go extinct probably isn't too bright, and have agreed to put a stop to some Yato rituals and traditions that contributed to their dwindling population. Despite this the Yato, for the most part, are unable to deny their violent nature. Many take up jobs or positions that allow them to continue fighting.

Kamui is the first born child to a famous alien hunter, Umibozu, and his wife. A few years or so after Kamui was born, his sister Kagura was born. Around that time, their mother had become ill, and as time went on, she became progressively worse. A few years passed (back story isn't really touched upon before this point SO), and Kamui decided to try to bring back an abandoned Yato ritual, where one proves he's reached adulthood by killing their parent. SO. Kamui attacked Umibozu and managed to sever his left arm, but it didn't stop his father from beating the everliving shit out of him. Umibozu was overcome with blood lust and attempted to kill Kamui, and would have easily succeeded if Kagura hadn't stepped in and stopped him.

After that incident, Umibozu was terrified of harming his family and began to return home less often. Kamui left home for good, telling Kagura that he wanted nothing to do with weaklings. Their mother succumbed to her illness soon after and passed away, and Kagura left home as well.

Some time after he left, Kamui became an apprentice to Hosen, a man known as the King if the Yato. Apparently Hosen was fond of Kamui when he was still a child, but at some point they had a falling out of sorts. Eventually, Hosen retired from his position as the leader of the 7th Squadron of the Harusame Outer Space Pirates and created Yoshiwara, an underground city of eternal night, full of ninja hookers (and regular hookers, and super hookers, hookers galore). Kamui remained with the Harusame, eventually taking over Hosen's position as leader of the 7th Squadron.

Kamui's first appearence in the series was during the Yoshiwara arc. Gintoki, Shinpachi, and Kagura met a greasy hobo kid named Seita, who wanted desperately to meet his mother, Hinowa, in Yoshiwara. Only problem was, she was the highest ranked courtesan in all of Yoshiwara, known as the "sun" of the underground city. She also just happened to be Hosen's personal escort. A woman named Tsukuyo, the leader of an all female army that had been created to protect the city called the Hundred Blooms, tried to help Gintoki and company escape (more like talk them into escaping), before they were all killed. But before anybody got anywhere, Kamui's two henchmen showed up, followed by Kamui himself, who smashed the bridge they were standing on and sent the good guys plummeting to their deaths. Only not really because they were fine.

Kamui did, however, capture Seita during the mess, and brought the boy to Hosen in order to piss him off and goad him into a fight. Kamui and his henchmen were sent by the leaders of the Harusame in order to determine where Hosen's loyalties lie, but Kamui really didn't give two shits about something like that. He just wanted a fight, and proceeded to piss Hosen off enough to where he finally accepted one. And fight they did, half destroying the building they were in in the process. Kamui's two henchmen finally stepped in to put a stop to the fight, one killed by Kamui himself, the other, Abuto, had his arm lopped off by Hosen. Both combatants agreed that there was no point in fighting anymore, Hosen stating that he cared only about Yoshiwara, and Kamui replying bluntly that he was disgusted by the way Hosen had become so obsessed and dependent on the city and Hinowa as well.

After the fight, Kamui and Abuto had a chat, Kamui stating that if the Harusame heads didn't like what he'd done, he'd just kill them. Abuto jokingly asked Kamui if he was trying to become the Pirate King, but Kamui liked the idea. He figured becoming the King of the fucking Pirates would make it easier for him to meet strong people to fight. Abuto waved Kamui off and left. He then fought Kagura and Shinpachi, and ended up falling off a roof somewhere.

Rather than staying where he was, Kamui decided that he wanted to go meet the woman that managed to turn Hosen into a bitch, Hinowa. He ran into Seita on the way, and killed the shit out of the Hundred Bloom soldiers that were after him. Right in front of the kid, too, Kamui didn't give a shit. He decide to take Seita to see Hinowa since they were headed in the same direction.

After he took Seita to Hinowa, Kamui sat back and watched in amusement the remainder of the time. It wasn't until Gintoki showed up and fought Hosen that he was actually impressed, and took a keen interest in the human that was able to defeat one of the Yato clan's strongest fighters. He even cheered him on, though mockingly at first.

With the help of like 50 ninja hookers, and Seita, Kagura, and Shinpachi opening the underground city's giant ceiling elsewhere (Sun hurts Yatos gais), Gintoki managed to defeat Hosen. After Hosen was defeated, Kamui stepped forward to mock him a little more before he died, taunting him and saying he'd fallen in love with what he hated most, the "sun". Housen turned Kamui's words against him, saying that Kamui didn't even know what the word love meant, and that the boy was the same as him. That their paths of destruction could only lead to nothingness. Kamui was unphased by the comment, and jumped off the roof after Kagura showed up and shot at him with her umbrella a few times.

Kamui found Abuto some time later, laying where he'd fallen after his fight with Shinpachi and Kagura. Abuto expected Kamui to kill him, but instead helped him to his feet. Kamui's reasoning for not killing him was that Abuto was still useful, saying that he still needed Abuto because after everything that had happened, the Harusame heads would be bitching about what happened in Yoshiwara. The two left the city.

As things stood, Kamui was now in charge of Yoshiwara, but he chose to leave the city alone and let the women run the place however they saw fit, as long as Gintoki remained alive and got stronger.

PERSONALITY: On the surface, Kamui appears to be a generally cheerful guy, almost always smiling and speaking in a polite manner. In reality, he is a violent fighter with an insatiable lust for blood and combat, and doesn't give a shit about anyone but himself. His only goal is to become the strongest fighter in the universe, and has ambitions to become the King of the Harusame pirates in order to achieve that goal. He does seem to have morals, stating at one point that he doesn't like killing women or children. His reasoning for this is because women can potentially give birth to strong people, or children can grow into strong adults. Though if attacked by either, he'll still kill them without a second thought.

Why should that character be in this game: For OCs only.

Why do you want to continue their history here: For characters from other games only.

For applicants considering an alternate version of a character already in game, please use this as your chance to explain the key differences between your character and the one already in play:

Have you read up on how the game works?: Guide plug in is FlamingFerret, characters can earn money by doing missions, freelancing, and jacking money from poor little old ladies.

1st person sample:

[As the feed opens, the only thing the viewer can see is the new arrival's desk, partly obscured by a pale thumb. An irritated Vogon sits behind the desk, attempting to shoo whoever is holding the guide away]

Young man, you have your paper work and your guide. Please move aside to fill it out so I can get this line moving.

[There's a casual sigh from the guide's owner, and the guide is set down on the desk. The viewer now gets a full shot of the ceiling, as well as part of someone's face and torso. It's mostly obscured by bandages, and a braid of salmon colored hair hangs over his shoulder. Common sense would dictate that this must be the guide's new owner, and said owner plops the giant stack of paperwork right back onto the Vogon's desk.]

I don't feel like filling out all of this paperwork. It's so boring.

[The Vogon grunts in annoyance and pushes the stack back towards the bandage wrapped boy]

If you want a room or money, you have to fill it out! No if's, and's or but's!

[The boy cocks his head to the side, a pleasant grin barely visible from beneath his bandaged face]

I have an idea that'll make this more fun. How many papers would you say are in this stack?

There's 2,056, including duplicates, now please-

Oooh, that's quite a bit! How about this, then. For every paper I have to fill out, I get to kill someone in this room. Doesn't that sound more interesting~?

[The Vogon is unphased by the boy's threat, and even stands up at this point to shoo him away with his hands]

Please, you're holding up the line! Go and fill out your-

[The Vogon is suddenly cut off as the boy makes a sudden movement, knocking the guide to the floor. The viewer now gets to see a headless Vogon sitting next to the one the boy was talking to, and within a matter of seconds the guide's camera becomes splattered with blood. Naturally, the room is filled with screaming people at this point. The guide is jostled a bit before it's picked up, and the blood is wiped away with the boy's now removed face bandages. Said boy is still wearing a perfectly pleasant smile on his face.]

That's one sheet down. Only 2,055 more to go!

[The Vogon who is still fortunate enough to have a head sputters something, and pulls the paperwork away before shoving a room key and some other crap into the boy's hand]

H-HERE'S YOUR ROOM KEY AND YOUR REFUGEE FUND H-HAVE A NICE DAY!

Ahh, what good service!

[AAAAAAAAND the video ends]

3rd person sample:

Well, this was a bit of a troublesome situation.

The last thing Kamui remembered, he was on Earth, with Abuto. The whole incident in Yoshiwara hadn't gone quite as planned, but Kamui really didn't mind. He had Abuto around to do the talking if the Harusame heads got on his case, and if it got too ugly, Kamui would just kill them all anyway. Might be fun. He kind of hoped it would turn ugly just so he'd have an excuse to fight.

Not like he really needed an excuse.

However, in the blink of an eye, he wasn't on Earth anymore. Wasn't even in the same galaxy. Abuto was nowhere to be found, either. Instead, Kamui found himself on an unfamiliar space station, surrounded by amanto, some of which came from races he didn't even recognize. He'd never heard of a Vogon before, but he could tell right off the bat that he wasn't going to be terribly fond of them. They were terribly dull, and didn't seem to be strong in any sense of the word. Boring weaklings that Kamui wanted nothing to do with. Unfortunately, dealing with these Vogons seemed unavoidable, considering they were around every corner and apparently in charge of handing out rooms and refugee funds. That much Kamui could put up with. What he wasn't prepared to deal with was the ten hour line he had to stand in to fill out forms that he didn't even want to fill out. What a waste of time. He made sure the Vogons knew as much.

Even if killing something so weak wasn't all that satisfying, it still helped. The boring, hideous freak of an amanto that was unfortunate enough to be working next to the Vogon Kamui had been talking to had been a pretty dull kill. No thrill of battle, not even a scream as it had died so quickly. Seeing flowing blood was enough for now, though. Kamui could find stronger opponents to kill once he'd gotten settled in, maybe after a bite to eat.

After receiving his room key and refugee funds, Kamui casually strolled out of the new arrivals office, resting his paper umbrella on his shoulder. He decided to go looking for food before finding his room. Besides fighting, eating was easily one of his favorite activities, and it had been quite a few hours since his last good meal. The concept of eating put him in a good enough mood that he probably wouldn't try to pick a fight with anyone that looked strong, at least for a little while.

Having made up his mind, he strolled off to find a restaurant, whistling cheerfully to himself.

Questions?: Do your milkshakes bring all the boys to the yard.

Did you put your characters name and fandom in the subject: I like how this is a question. And yes. Maybe.
