Hello! I'm joining!

Name: Isamu Takeshi [Isamu means Courageous and Takeshi means Fierce Warrior]

Soul name: Wolf in the Shadows

Affect soul name has: Kelrayi studies his targets, often from places they can't find him easily (Hence the Shadow part). He is fiercely loyal to those he considers friends (Wolf part) and won't hesitate to hurl himself into combat for their sake. He is fierce and absolutely unrelenting in his attacks (Wolf part again).

Age:18

Gender:Male

Appearance: Isamu's dark brown hair is shaggy and thick, reminiscent of a wolf's mane. His eyes, a dark green color, size every person up with a cold, calculating glance. White robes are trimmed in black and reach down to his ankles and wrists. He also has a tattoo of a wolf on his left shoulder.

Weapon: [What about a quarterstaff? Those would seem to fit a Monk's style very well. But if I can't get a quarterstaff.] Longsword.

Skills: [Since some of these are reliant on the weapon, I'm going forward with the assumption of using a quarterstaff. I'll change things around if needed.]
Shadow Stalking: Isamu slides into the shadows, quietly and effectively. Perfected as of the start of the fight.
Fist of Shadows: Isamu focuses his chi to his fists and strikes an opponent, utilizing his chi to weaken his opponent's strength. Decently performed as of the start of the fight.
Cloak of Shadows: Isamu spins his quarter staff all around him, spreading his chi along the length of the quarterstaff, until it envelops him in a ball of shadows, allowing him to 'disappear'. In reality, his chi forms a sort of barrier around him, rendering him temporarily invisible. Since it impairs his eyesight, he must rely on his sense of hearing and smell to navigate. Imperfect as of the start of the fight.
Shadow Strike: Essentially a more powerful, ranged version of Fist of Shadows, Isamu charges the chi in his palms and manipulates it until he can hurl it, in the shape of a small orb, at his opponents. Imperfect at the start of the fight.
Shadow Barrier: Using his quarterstaff, Isamu prepares much as he would for using the Cloak of Shadows skill, except now he uses it to project a physical image of a shadow, allowing him to block incoming attacks.

History: Isamu was born to a pair of simple farmers. When he was eight, wolves came, attacked, and killed his parents. Yet when they laid their eyes on Isamu, they protected him and cared for him.

When the monks found him in the woods when he was ten, Isamu was wild. They saw his potential and brought him back with them to the temple. Though they managed to quell his animalistic nature, they could not get Isamu to cut his hair.

Isamu began to train diligently in the Academy. Though he was accepted, he felt ostracized by some other monks. Isamu also preferred to sleep outside under the sky, and only slept indoors when the weather called for it.

By the time the temple was attacked, Isamu was a well-respected monk, proficient in martial arts, and was beginning to master his chi skills.

Personality: Isamu is quiet around many people, opening up only to a few people. He can become mildly aggressive to those whom Isamu feels threatens his friends. Wolfish and sly at times, Isamu presents a calm, thoughtful image when the time is serious. In his free time, Isamu loosens up, to those few he can, and jokes around.

I think we can start with four people.

((Allright, lets start, and yes, a quaterstaff is fine .))


The sky was grey, for the first time, grey skys surrounded the monastary, thunder sounded everywhere, and rain pitter-patted on the monks, now soldier's head, Sharun was standing in a group of 20 monks, who were being breifed by their general.

"Listen, soldiers, we MUST hold the air temple at all costs, Sharun, take a group of monks with you and defend the wall, wich they will most likeley burst through first, for the other monks-"

A catapulted rock burst through the walls of the monastary, and a group of 20 soldiers entered, they were wearing iorn, knight-like armor, and they had silver longswords, and steel sheilds, wich had inscribed dragons on them.

Sharun charged with his group, quickly pressing his fingers into parts of a warrior's body, disableing all his limbs, before his fist glowed, and smashed through his armor, breaking the ribs and sending the man flying towards the wall, he concentrated and a transparent light blue barrier surrounded him, just in time to take a hit from a swinging axe, he stumbled back, his barrier seperateing, he looked over his shoulder and saw another man chargeing at him, he did a short leap back and concentrated, then his fists became mere blurs of skin and blue light, the two men became stunned, and bruises surrounded their bodys, Sharun released a fearfull uppercut into one of their jaws, breaking it, then smashed the other in the crotch with his knee, the man winched in pain before sharun grabbed him by the head, ripped his helmet off and crushed his skull.

"Hold the position, dont let them get past!" Sharun shouted, he shifted into a strong stance, his knees bent, and his fists on each side of his waist, and the blue, transparrent ward surrounded him again.

Isamu sat crouched on the beams above the floor as a group of two enemy soldiers clanked nosily past. 'Heh... It couldn't be easier if they were shouting at the top of their lungs. Isamu stood and followed them across the high beams. His bare feet made almost no sound as he moved, and what little was made was covered by the metallic clanking.

Snapping his quarterstaff in front of him, Isamu dropped from the beams and landed on one of the soldiers. The man fell with an almighty crash. His companion stumbled to a stop and turned to face his aggressor, pulling his sword out as he turned.

Isamu thanked whatever mysticism or naturalist effect that made it so, but when he brought his quarterstaff up to parry a slash, not so much as a splinter of wood came loose. The knight slashed and hacked, but Isamu just weaved and knocked the blows aside, looking bored. The man rose his sword high, and when he did so, Isamu launched forward and jabbed the quarterstaff in between the man's shoulder joint.

Howling in pain, the man dropped his weapon and didn't notice Isamu slide around behind him. Holding his hand palm out at his side, Isamu whispered "Fist of Shadows." To him, or anyone else capable of chi arts, his hand seemed to envelope in barely visible wisps of purple and black energy. Isamu struck out at the man's neck quickly. The knight stood straight up, arched his back, and then fell froward in a heap.

Picking up his quarterstaff, Isamu jumped, caught a beam, and lifted himself up and began searching for his next opponents.

Isamu crouched atop the temple roof, staring at the soliders that were fighting monks in the garden. The moonlight made it easy to pinpoint who was friend and who was enemy. Snapping his wrist, Isamu's quarterstaff retracted into something a little travel-friendly.

Sliding the weapon into a loop inside his robe, Isamu quietly ran across the rooftop. He saw a few others mimicking his movements, something that caused him to grin. He knew them, and they knew him.

One monk in particular was being ambushed by three knights. The girl was on the defensive, nervousness tinging her facial features. Isamu nodded to one other the other monks with him, and together, they both leapt down onto a knights. With a deafening crash, all five men went down.

Quickly, Isamu and the other monk jumped up and took a position next to their fellow monk. "Are you ok?" The girl nodded as the three knights untangled themselves and got to their feet.

"You made a mistake, attacking us here. We're not some invading group or demons. We're monks." Isamu yelled out, trying to talk some sense into the men.

"Ignore the demon. Kill them all!"

Isamu cursed under his breath as he leaned to one side, dodging a stab. He reached up and grabbed the attacking knight's wrist and threw it up into the air as he slid around and kicked the man in the back of his knees.

Hitting the ground with a crash, Isamu picked up his fallen blade and impaled the knight though one shoulder. His screams were dim in Isamu's ears as he turned to jump back into the fray with his fellow monks.

Sonoko looking at all the destruction going on couldn't help himself but laugh.

"I've never thought this be so exiting."

Jumping into the frenzy he screamed "Dancing Slash!"

Hacking away tens of soldiers he exclaimed to his group " Don't you dare to let a single one of em escape!"

When suddenly he and his group were surrounded by more then a dozen soldiers.
He cursed under his breath and jumped into the soldiers

Mei-Lien saw that some of her fellow monks were surrounded by enemies on all sides. One of the monks by the name of Sonoko was one who was particularly in a spot of danger.

Leaping out of the shadows which she used to conceal herself, she brought out her shortsword, which flashed like a blinding silver and blue light as it zipped across and slashed at one of the soldiers, who fell on his knees and then on his head.

About three more turned around and headed for her, leaving the rest to Sonoko. Propelling herself high into the air, she spinned at top speed, holding one of the men with her right arm.

"Lotus Twister!" Mei shouted in mid-air.

Forcing her body higher, she released the soldier and sliced him aerially, some specs of blood shooting off here and there as her twirled and hitted the ground harshly.

The other two charged at her, one attempting to attack her from the front. She quickly spinned him down and tossed him beside the one she just knocked out. With a smirk, the other soldier striked Mei from behind. Fortunatly, Mei dodged the attack to the left and stabbed the soldier in the leg, but she still had a severe wound across her back, which occured as the weapon had slid across her skin and through her now ripped outfit. Clenching her teeth, Mei vanished upon the roof, hoping to recover in the shade of darkness above.

((OOC: By the way, Kain has not been on for awhile ;_; That is why I was unsure to post, since I am not sure if he will ever come back on ))
