Chief

Chief is a wraithsketeer currently residing in Lasoa Bay, and the leader of the Night Parade that wrecks havoc at night. As Tania Mei, she works as an accountant in a failing business, spending most of her time not working drinking her problems away.

## Bio

Tania Mei is an individual who is perpetually down on her luck. She works in a failing company with harsh working conditions that push her to her limits. This constant stress has led her to develop a pessimistic outlook on life, mostly having given up on it getting better. Out of work, she usually spends her time drinking and trying to make up for her screwed sleep schedule. She's also a bit of a pushover, just letting things happen if they don't go her way.

When donning the mask of Chief and chugging what seems to be an endless amount of booze, she leads the Night Parade, a group of wraiths who only wish to let loose, to wreck havoc across the streets of Lasoa Bay. She becomes more confident and boisterous when intoxicated, though also more emotionally instable at the same time. She doesn't really care about much other than drinking and partying, and would absentmindedly order something trampled if it ever got in the path of the Night Parade.

## Abilities

#### As a Human

* **Accounting** - Tania is very good at arithmetic and keeping financial accounts, though she wishes she didn't have to do it so much.
* **Multitasking** - Thanks to her hectic work life, Tania learned to effectively multitask, though she wishes she didn't have to do it so much

#### As a Wraithsketeer

* **Enhanced Physical Ability** - As a wraithsketeer, Chief boasts physical abilities greater than a regular masketeer's.
* **Gourd** - In her right hand, Chief holds a gourd of what seems to be endless booze from which she drinks excessively from. Unknown to her, the alcohol she constantly drinks is actually her fermented negative emotions. It is intoxicating to wraiths, but toxic to anything else, especially masketeers.
	+ **Wraith Attraction** - The smell of booze attracts any nearby wraiths in the area. The longer Chief keeps the gourd open, the wider the area becomes.
	+ **Drunken Dance** - Chief's drunken movements become impossible to predict as she sways around in battle without rhyme or reason. Her fighting style becomes one of unpredictable dodges, weaves and strikes.
	+ **Physical Enhancement** - Drinking from the gourd enhances Chief's physical abilities even further.
* **Golden Staff** - In her right hand, Chief holds a golden staff she uses in battle. It can be used as either a polearm or as a focus for casting magic.
	+ **Warding** - Chief forms a barrier in a certain area. It can be static, or it can be cast upon herself or on allies..
	+ **Strengthening** - Chief strengthens herself or on allies, increasing their attack, speed and defence.
	+ **Healing** - Chief can heal herself or other allies, though the reach is limited.
* **The Night Parade** - The Night Parade is a small army of wraiths under Chief's command. The strength and types of wraiths present all vary, but they all share the same desire do revel and have fun. Their numbers are usually small when starting off, but Chief can summon more wraiths when need be.
	+ WIP
* **Ultimate: Drunken Revelry** - Chief opens her gourd and creates a rain of booze, affecting anyone in the area. Wraiths are strengthened by the alcohol, increasing their abilities and making them enter a wild, reckless frenzy. On the other hand, anything else becomes weakened, unable to handle the sheer negative energy of the booze. In the case of masketeers, the rain is toxic and deals damage over time in addition to debuffing them.

#### Unleashed Form

* **Shadow Parade** - Chief gains the ability to traverse and transport things through shadows, expanding the area of her parade. She can move herself or her allies through shadows, allowing for quick movement and unpredictable strikes. She can also summon more members of the Night Parade through this method.
* **Unleashed Ultimate: Hyakki Yagyo** - Chief summons the entire force of the Night Parade from the shadows. Their number is so great, they effectively start to flood the area, creating a literal wave of wraiths crashing down upon her opponents, with Chief at the helm.

## Trivia

* Chief is based on Shuten Doji and the Hyakki Yagyo. Shuten Doji is a powerful drunkard Oni that terrorized the region of Kyoto, while the Hyakki Yagyo, or alternatively the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, is a night wherein a great number of demons and yokai gather to wreck havoc on the streets of Japan.
* As a human, Tania usually drinks alone.
