Thread: Arik's OC Journal

This is designed to be my little repository of original characters that I'd like to roleplay as. I only have two at the moment, but soon enough, I should have more. 1. Arik Lezatiel Modern-esque Original Character 2. Akado Arik Naruto-setting Original Character 1. Arik Lezatiel Stats Species Human in fantasy subsettings, he's half-human, half-siren Age 19 Build Average Eye color Green Gender Male Hair Red HeightLength 5'10 1.78m Weight 158lbs Occupation Student Orientation Straight Relationship Single Typical Background He was born less than twenty years ago, though not by much. His father is Human, his mother was a Siren his father had met at work. They eventually fell in love, got married, and had three children- two sisters, the first and second born, and then Arik, who was the third. It was then that his father learned of the unfortunate truth about siren-blooded males the women had the voices. The men, on the other hand, had none. The redheaded child grew up to learn to communicate via sign language, writing, and body language in general, his mother and sisters working with him as his father grew detached from them. By the time he was 10, his father had left them, divorcing his mother. Fortunately, his mother and sisters were able to make money thanks to a singing career, and the quartet survived as best they could. When Arik was old enough, his mother told him about why he had no voice. It was a genetic quirk of the Sirens, one that benefited the females but damned the males. It was then that the redhead turned towards learning magic, though he had little access anywhere to any kind that he could actually use. Specializing in learning the runic magic that was quite rare to find any information of considering it's power and difficulty, few bothered to study or train in such specialty, he began to attempt to find a combination that would give unto him a voice of his own. Even now, he has had no luck, a scar across his throat telling the story of how he had nearly lost his life to the attempt to achieve a voice. Now, he's on a quest to attempt to find a potential method of gaining a voice. Magic, religions... he's not quite desperate, but with his lack of luck these days? It is quite likely only a matter of time now. 2. Akado Arik Species Human Age 18 Build Average Eye color Green Gender Male Hair Red HeightLength 5'7 1.7m Weight 158lbs Occupation Chuunin Ninja Orientation Straight Relationship Unknown Typical Background A younger member of the Akado clan of Konohagakure, unlike his cousin Yoroi, is far less brash and arrogant. This is likely due to a lack of a voice of his own, thanks in large part to various experiments upon him while still a baby. Though there is no known sign of it, a seal upon the inside of his trachea actually keeps the boy from speaking, though it does not inhibit his sight or hearing capabilities. Like his clan, his simple claim to fame is the Chakra Absorption technique. However, unlike most of his clan, he is capable of drawing chakra from not only humans, but also items that have been infused with it, though at a somewhat slow rate. Draining an explosive tag, for example, can take up to twenty or thirty seconds, depending on the quality of the tag itself. His ability to store the extra chakra is also above average, which has made him a bit of an anti-trap scout, or a 'minesweeper', as some have called him. Though perhaps overly specialized, he is still an adept in-fighter and mid- range battler, though as a result of his clan's teachings he still must catch up with other ninja in various ways of Ninjutsu and Genjutsu. Currently a Chuunin, Arik Akado was on a mission in the Land of Waves during the attack on Konoha, and so was spared the battle there. Though he is a Chuunin, he is still far behind most of his classmates when it comes to learning more common, multi-purpose-use jutsu, though he is attempting to find someone whom he might learn new jutsu from. This is not an unusual issue with those of his clan, which suggests that this may be a main reason as to why the clan remains small and almost unknown, even in the Leaf Village. Known Jutsu E- Body Replacement Technique E- Wind Release Concealing Mist E- Akado Jutsu Chakra Leech Technique Can absorb chakra from a tenketsu point, and only a tenketsu point. D- Wind Release Blinding Gale D- Haze Clone Technique D- Chakra Absorption Technique Can absorb chakra from any location that rests near a tenketsu point, or where chakra is stored such as an explosive seal. D- Akado Jutsu Absorption Parry Technique Absorbs chakra from incoming techniques, but must be used at the point of impact to lessen the attack's power. C- Wind Release Violent Wind Palm C- Akado Jutsu Chakra Body Absorption Allows the absorption of chakra from any point of the target, or the user's body. Can be used only for short periods of time. Very chakra-intensive.
