General Information

"You can't help but stop and marvel at the majesty of the unseen world around us."

Profile

Just recently having moved from out in the country, Taiki has been raised in an older shrine in the mountains for much of his life. Not really all that used to socializing with other people his own age, he's mainly been around older monks and priests, and generally tends to be a bit more laid back due to the slower pace of life out in the sticks. He was introduced to the| Persona game at a young age, as one of his mentors believed that it would help to open his awareness to the spiritual world around him. While trained as a shrine priest for most of his life, Taiki has also struggled with his relative isolation, having few people his own age around for company and little in the way of modern conveniences. After several years of nagging, the priests have consented to allow him to travel to the city in order to finish out his education.

Skills

Resonance

Taiki's resonance appears as a faint aura of red flame around his body. It gives off a faint feeling of warmth and radiance to those who can feel resonance that way. There is always the faint sound of a fire crackling from his presona burning away in his soul, and for those who can detect Persona's by scent there is always a faint hint of cinnamon in the air around Taiki - unless he gets upset, in which case it changes to a much more pungent aroma of brimstone.

Taiki's resonance has been described as 'comforting' by several people for the sense of warmth and security it puts out.

Contacts

  • Knowledgeable Flattery - Taiki pays his respects to the demon, and attempts to appeal to it's strength and powerful nature to win it's trust.
  • Chastise - Taiki censures the demon for it's evil nature, criticizing it's evil actions and encouraging it to act more positively in the future.
  • Compassionate Shoulder - Taiki listens earnestly to the demon, encouraging it to speak of it's problems and unburden it's soul.
  • Sphinx's Gambit - Taiki challenges the demon to a game or test, daring it to place it's wits against his own.

Persona

"I am thou... thou art I. I am Homusubi, the flame that brought end to the beginning..."

Taiki's Persona is Homusubi, Japanese god of fire that was born of the creator gods Izunami and Izunagi. His flames were so intense that he burned Izunami to death as he was being born. In his grief, Izunagi cut Homusubi into eight pieces and cast them across Japan, where they became eight volcanos. His birth was said to mark the end of creation and the beginning of death in the world.

Extras

Equipment

  • Weapon: Sacred Ash Bow - A bow carved by one of Taiki's mentors at the temple he used to live at. Blessed to allow it's arrows to purify evil when it strikes with a sacred flame.
  • Body: Priest's Robes - White and grey traditional priests robes, gi and hakaman pants. Offers good mobility without a lot of protection. Getting a little worn due to being repaired by hand...
  • Feet: Forester Boots - Old beloved pair of boots, worn for many years. Looks like the rubber bottoms have been replaced.
  • Accessory: Prayer Beads - A long chain of prayer beads, usually worn around the neck or wrist. Each bad is intricately carved, and the entire set is very old and valuable.

Trivia

  • Taiki has been playing shogi, go, and chess for many years. He is quite good at all three games, with shogi being his best. He hasn't risen closer to professional level due to the lack of variety in his opponents, and will likely continue to improve as time passes.
  • All of the arrows that Taiki uses are created by hand, using a sacred method that instills the ability to purify evil spirits and dark influences into the arrow. The arrows he uses for his special attack take between 6 - 12 hours to create.
  • Despite the fact that he did not receive the final acknowledgement of his training, Taiki is a trained Shito exorcist. He offers these services for free to those who ask him for help.
  • Taiki finds email to be a straight and frightening thing. He takes about 10 minutes to compose a 2 line text message on a cell phone.
  • Due to his time in the mountains, Taiki is a skilled outdoorsman. He has a number of small scars from his time in the woods, including a large set of four on his back. No one knows where he got those from next.
