Name: Ishi Jizoku
Race: Youkai – Jiangshi
Appearance: Wears a black hooded cloak at almost all times to hide his appearance. If one were to see him with it off, they would see a grey skinned, gaunt man who seems to have all but withered away. He has white eyes, like those with cataracts. Average height but typically moves around with a hunched back and a small misstep.
Personality: Always questioning and always curious. While Ishi’s language skills are far below par, he sometimes attempts to communicate with the few words he does know. He can listen for days on end however. Doesn’t enjoy fighting, as he feels it isn’t his place. Ishi has a poor concept of time. He takes the energy of insects so he doesn’t have to exhaust himself with a chase. If he comes across a dying monster, he will likely consume what remaining life force it had as well. His mood is almost nonexistent as if he had forgotten how to react properly taken when he died. This leads to another source of confusion with him and he’ll likely ask how he should respond.
People would likely call Ishi bland and annoying, but this wouldn’t bother him any. He would remain content hearing the reasons why.
History: It was dark. A deafening silence purged a dead man’s memory. There was nothing left. Timeless, spaceless. There was nothing to note and in that there was a certain peacefulness. Then there was a small noise, then another, and a dead man opened his eyes.
He opened his mouth to ask a question, but no noise came out. His lungs were empty, they needed to be filled with air to speak. He made an unnatural inhalation and tried again. “How?” The withered corpse wiggled around in his caved in coffin. Sediment and dirt had piled up on the dead man’s legs. The man reached down to brush it aside, but noticed that it moved without being touched. He tried again and it moved more. Curiosity had set in and over the next few portions of time, the dead man managed to move enough sediment to open his casket.
He pulled himself upward, to the ground of the living. He looked around and wanted to know about everything he saw. Why were some things different colors? Who made this place? Why did he return? Would there be others? It was in this moment that he decided his path would be one of finding and understanding.
However, the first being he came across began to scream and run. He did not move. Others returned with amazing torches burning a fascinating orange. It wasn’t until they began to throw these torches at him that he realized he was in danger. He raised some earthen orbs between him and his pursuers and fled the area.
Over the years, He had donned a cloak and gotten a notebook. He had come to take the name of Ishi Jizoku. He now travels the land in search of fascinating places and people.
Combat: Not much of a combatant, but knows a few ways to protect whatever he feels is worth protecting. Possesses earth magic and uses it to build walls and trenches between him and his enemies. The formations are crude but effective. One of his worst case scenario method is to trap himself inside of an earthen hole and stall the enemies out.
