Kiyoshi Tetsu

== Appearance ==
Kiyoshi's hair is short and wild complimenting his young appearance and sharp features. His build is lean but compact with pink muscle tissue allowing him to pack a much bigger punch than what his body type gives away. Due to this, he could be, in the eyes of the female population, extremely attractive or "dreamy", but due to his usual outfit, his body his hidden from the prying eyes of the populace.
He wears several color variations of the Aki clan
traditional wear which contains a Red Haori with gold accents and an “Aki” in orange Kanji on the back,
Burnt Orange Haori Himo, ared Kimono and dark orange ombre with orange and brown Autumn leaves
embroidered around the kimono, Hakama with in a Fall ombre with a Yin/Yang Symbol in the form of two foxes circling each other one with their tails trailing behind them. One white fur and black eyes and another with black fur and white eyes as if they were chasing the other's tails,
and white tabi and brown zori.
== Personality ==
Kiyoshi is for intents and purposes, silent. This is not to
say he’s anti-social or introverted, no quite the opposite actually, he’s quite
outgoing and friendly and always emits an aura of warmth. When he does speak,
it’s usually if the topic at hand is interesting or requires an input by him. Otherwise,
he stays quiet, but when he does speak in a more casual setting it’s usually
profound in one way or another.
His silence stems from him always actively observing and
analyzing the world around him, questioning minor and trivial things, such as,
If a squirrel acts a certain way, he questions why it is acting that way.  A leaf lands a certain way, why did it land
that way. A flicker in the sky, he question what it is? He, of course, knows
the obvious answer: the squirrel is scavenging food: a slight breeze changed its
landing: it was a plane or star in the sky. These are not the answers he looks
for though, he looks at the deeper meaning behind it: The squirrel senses
something, a leaf, it lands strangely, the squirrel sensed a change in the
wind, it’s the first to notice the twinkle in the flow of time. Translation; “Times
are changing so wait for the spark to ignite your sense of purpose.” 
At home he’s a lot more different than his school Persona,
he’s still has his silence, but he is far warmer and more open around his wife
and kids. You can usually find him outside his home playing with his kids and
wife, cherishing the long years he’s been spending with them. He intends to
send his kids to Osaka in a couple years so they can learn to co-exist with
other triads of the world.
He’s patient due to his is two millennia existence in the
world, but even he has limits. He does not and will not tolerate arrogance or
brats, nor will he tolerate harm coming to his students and family. It would be
near impossible to determine if he’s triggered due to his silent nature, silent
fury as it were. Aside from those few triggers he’s mostly neutral to normal
teenage antics. Though, if he were set off by such things he can and will
break their ignorance. In short, he’s either that silent best friend, or your
worst nightmare.
== Powers/Abilities ==
Kiyoshi’s powers and abilities plentiful with multitude of
uses, but he only has several that he actively practices and uses on a daily
basis. His first two abilities are the staple of Kitsune Talent, Fox Fire and
Illusions. His flames are highly advanced due to his long existence; they have
an intensity that could burn down most structures with ease. Next is his
Mastery over Illusions, due to his role as the Aki Clan’s
scout/tracker/messenger he’s learned to use this ability to its fullest easily
able to control a mansion’s party worth of people with little effort on his
part.
He also quite adept in the use of Conjuration, able to call
upon medium sized Fox Sentries made of pure magic to assist him in just about anything
that is needed. He can summon at max , 6 two-tailed Fox Sentries or if focused
into one life size magic infused 5-tailed fox. (Mostly used for training
himself)
Over time he’s seen the necessity of support magic, so he
took it upon himself to learn how to heal another being. Restoration became one
of his staple abilities that he focused on, gaining a fairly advanced level. It
lets him heal minor injuries completely and require some intense focus for
anything major. He is able to heal and numb minor injuries in battle, but major
injuries require time so it makes it near impossible to use in the middle of
combat.
Air mimicry is also a staple of his abilities; this allows
him to transform himself into a myriad of homogenous matter. Of course this
ability is used purely for escaping, hiding, and travel it would be impossible
to battle in this form as this form completely changes his being into that of
Air which will have him spread out all over, so accurately attacking from this
form is a no go.
Another support ability he took upon himself to learn is the
ability to produce several different types of barriers; the first being the
common Barrier that absorbs a certain amount of damage before breaking. It can
absorb most if not all High Ranking abilities; in short, no one aside from the
teaching staff at Osaka Gakuin has a chance of breaking this shield.
The next barrier is Reflection; it can absorb the damage and
send it back to the user. Unlike the barrier, this is not meant to be sustained
because while it reflects 160% of the damage, the user can still feel about
20-40% of the damage break through. If he just summons one temporarily (3
seconds Max) he can deflect a full 200% without sustaining damage.
The Final Barrier is a combination of his Restoration
ability and Blocking Barrier; this being a relatively new ability it lacks the
potency of a Full Barrier or Restoration. The barrier works into forms: the
First one is as long as you are within the Barrier you heal over time, the
second one converts the half the damage to healing while blocking the other
half and just like the barrier it can only sustain so much damage before
shattering.
== Background ==
Kiyoshi is a six-tailed Kitsune with a long and rather uneventful history filled
with training, years of uneventful traveling experience by himself and with no
one really to talk to during his long period of absences from home he’s grown
particularly silent. So instead of running through each and every year let’s
get straight to some of the major points in his life. First and foremost, he
was born in to a family of talented trackers/scouts/messengers that work for
and directly under the Main Branch of the Aki Family as their main informants.
This Branch family is built of many smaller families of the aforementioned
skills. Most that grow up in this particular family usually grow up to be an
informant of some kind due to their natural inherent talent for speed making
them exclusively qualified for the position.
Kiyoshi was especially qualified for such a position having
some of the fastest speeds ever noted in Aki Clan history, so much so that Head
of the Main Branch took special notice. This brought a lot of pride to his
family so when the Aki Clan head asked him to be his personal messenger as well
as eventually train his daughter, Yume, down the line, Kiyoshi found it hard to
say no. Once he accepted his proposal he was moved from the branch family to
one of the Main Branch’s unused homes so he could immediately report to the
Head with no delay. 
Being the personal envoy for the Head Family required him to
be out in the world scouting and tracking strange disturbances in the balance
of nature, being out in the world has changed his perspective about life.
Things that no one really noticed, he learned to notice, things that seemed so
trivial that no one acknowledged, he acknowledged, whatever it was, nothing was
trivial or unimportant anymore, everything mattered and every grain of rice
meant something different. There was always something more, always something
deeper to be found or learned.
As the days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months,
months turned into years, and years turned into centuries, he began to feel a
slight emptiness; he always traveled alone, always
alone. He was never accompanied by anyone because no other clan member could keep
up with him. This changed as one day he met another branch member of the Aki
Clan, a female Kitsune by the name of Rei Busujima that he bumped into during a
mission. He learned that during his time gone, she came the closest to beating
his record. Eventually, they started getting assigned similar missions, from
this a love bloomed and from that bloom, seeds of their union grew.
It wasn’t until much later that he was to start the second
part of their contract, training the Main Branch’s heir, or more accurately, heiress,
in conditioning, endurance and speed. He of course was one of her many trainers
that were assigned to the student, but if you were to ask Yume, he was her
favorite trainer. During their time together they formed a close family bond,
one that was largely supported by the Head and his Wife because of how it
strengthened the bonds of both the Main and Branch families. Unfortunately,
this was not to last as Yume slowly began straying from the path of the Aki Clan
beliefs. When Yume started dabbling in things she shouldn’t he was sent to
apprehend and bring her in for trial when her deeds were uncovered. Even him
and all his duties could not take her in and told to her to run before he
changed his mind and took her in for trial. When Kiyoshi returned to Nagisa he
informed that Yume has “escaped” before he could apprehend her. He was expected
to be punished for his failure, but instead he was told to return to his home and
recover knowing what Yume meant to Kiyoshi. Surprised at first, but accepted
the leave of duty. Little did he know though Nagisa intended for all this to
happen as part of Yume’s trial as an Heiress, a pilgrimage if you will.
When Kiyoshi returned to his wife, Rei, he let out silent
tears for being unable to prevent Yume’s departure. After he wept for his
failure, he began tracking her down; attempting to keep tabs on her. After some
time he picked up her trail and reported it to Nagisa, hoping that he would be
allowed to retrieve her, but was shot down when he was ordered to not interact
with her in any shape or form. This angered Kiyoshi greatly, but before he was
allowed to speak, Nagisa informed him to apply at Osaka Gakuin and consider
this a part of his agreement. He acquiesced, albeit, a bit bitterly. He was hired
pretty quickly after expressing his interest in the Philosophy. 
Time went by as he slowly became to enjoy his position in
OG, of course he was still called in for missions every now and then, but for
the most part his wife took the brunt of his envoy work. One day he was called
into the Head Family Household for a mission of dire importance concerning Yume.
It was safe to say, he has never moved quicker. Upon arrival he was informed
that Yume has been gone long enough and asked him to go to her and deliver a
message knowing that the prodigal branch member has been keeping tabs on her. He
accepted the assignment quickly and immediately made way to her last known location.
In no time, he found her, but was saddened when he saw the
once bright, determined, mischievous eyes turned dull and hollow. Despite the
sadness that belied her blank visage he offered her the letter hoping it would
brighten her up knowing she can return without repercussions, but was disappointed
when she turned him down and left him with two messages that he dutifully, but
sadly delivered back to her father. He was surprised once again when Nagisa
smiled at the first message, showing it to his wife and she too smiled. After
he informed them of not only her messages, but the sadness that he saw within
her eyes they immediately had him write up an Application for Osaka Gakuin,
which was accepted not long afterwards. He was initially confused by this
command, but Nagisa clarified that she just needed to find her spark again. He
nodded, albeit, still confused, but returned home as he continued to teach at
Osaka hoping one day to understand the mysterious ways of his leader.
