## Information

Jun, former Captain, Senshi, and Platoon Leader in The Purorigu, was an orphan born to two unnamed parents who abandoned her at birth. She is incredibly famous for being the most powerful extraordinary individual to ever live. She graduated from Eritoakademi in 1893 as the Kanpeki’s top seat, and served as a Senshi in The Purorigu for many decades. Historical documentation shows that she went on to slay over 2,000 demons, nearly 50 of which were Mezurashi level. She was one of only a handful of individuals in history labeled as a "Possessor".

Jun is often hailed as a hero of Minerva, having protected many of its major cities and settlements from the onslaught of Unusuals during her time in The Purorigu. She was a master of many different types of combative arts including Swordsmanship, Magic, and Martial Arts, abilities which she picked up through intense training in her early childhood years from three masters, Gael, Hachi, and Eshe.

Throughout her decades in The Purorigu, Jun defeated many powerful demons like Geiki, Ferzas, and Maagli. She was known as a Possessor, an extraordinary individual who is able to acquire the abilities of those whom she defeats in combat. Because of this incredibly rare ability, Jun was able to use the powers of the demons she slew in order to give her an advantage in battle.

In 1901, when Jun was 29 years old, she engaged in battle with Kojitenski Ankou in the Sanmyaku Mountain Range. During the battle, Ankou underestimated Jun's abilities and was stunned to see the techniques of his former disciples being used against him, a result of Jun's Possession ability. The two of them were equally matched for the majority of the fight, which dragged on for nearly 2 hours before Ankou realized that he was unable to win. Ankou fled deep into the mountains, escaping Jun and entering a period of hiding. This battle made Jun the only individual in history to defeat Ankou in combat, even if failing to kill him. Jun would continue to defeat high-level demons, serving as Minerva's protector until her retirement.

## Origin

Jun was born on April 13th, 1872 to unnamed parents who abandoned her shortly after birth. She was discovered on the front porch of a small home in Gujidor near the outskirts of City H and taken in by two individuals, Joi'chiro and Cece, who had no extraordinary abilities. The two of them took her in and nursed her back to good health. They named her Jun, which meant purity. When she was 2 years old, her parents took notice of a mark that had begun to develop beneath her palm, resembling a crescent moon with clouds beneath it. This prompted them to have Jun analyzed by an extraordinary individual who would be able to discern her abilities.

The individual called in to analyze Jun was shocked to see the mark of The Possessor, stating that it was among the rarest abilities in the world, and recommended that her parents find somebody able to help Jun utilize her abilities and train her, as her mark was incredibly rare. However, as a 2-year-old, Jun was much too young to begin proper training. Instead, her parents raised her like she was an ordinary child, teaching her right from wrong and exposing her to the many wonders of the world.

However, their attempts at raising Jun to be an ordinary individual were largely in vain. For much of Jun's early childhood, she was getting into trouble with the law, committing petty theft and utilizing her abilities for evil, as she had no other way of exerting herself. Jun would often pickpocket, steal food from farms, and get into fights with children and adults alike, using her abilities to her advantage. As a Possessor, Jun was able to acquire the strengths and abilities of those whom she defeated in combat, meaning she was immensely powerful even at a young age.

When Jun was 11 years old, she was arrested and sent to a juvenile detention center designed for extraordinary children who committed malpractice with their abilities. In this facility, it was decided that the best course of action would be to enroll Jun in a training academy where she would learn how to use her abilities for good, however, she was too young to enroll at an officially recognized academy, as the age requirement for such an institution is 16 years of age. Because of this, Jun was instead released and enlisted in a private training regimen with three soldiers of The Purorigu who would give her early training on many different types of combat.

These three soldiers were named Gael, Hachi, and Eshe, and were masters of their respective art. Gael was a master of magic, Hachi was a master of swordsmanship, and Eshe was a master of the martial arts. For the next 5 years, Jun would undergo intense training with these 3 soldiers, becoming proficient in multiple different types of combat. By the time Jun was 16 years old, she was more than prepared to enlist in an official training academy. She enrolled in the newly-founded Eritoakademi, where she spent 5 more years training. While at Eritoakademi, Jun ranked at the top of her class, earning a spot among The Kanpeki by her 4th year, taking on the role of the 1st seat for her final two years at the academy.

Jun graduated from Eritoakademi in 1893 and enlisted in The Purorigu, where she received professional training from the sergeants. She reunited with her former teachers, Gael, Hachi, and Eshe, who were now Captains, and the four of them often shared drinks and talked about their journeys and battles. During her early years in The Purorigu, Jun outclassed her fellow privates and was a favorite among the sergeants and lieutenants, quickly rising through the ranks until she became a captain herself after 5 years of service. Her fellow captains saw her as an "Untamable Daredevil" and noted how her possession ability was an invaluable asset to their missions. When Jun was 28, she became a Senshi, and earned the nickname "Megami", which meant Goddess.

Two years before becoming a Senshi, Jun started dating Captain Elrod Daichi, the two of them getting married in 1900 after Jun became a Senshi. The two of them fought alongside each other for the remainder of their time in The Purorigu, until Elrod's retirement at the age of 53. Jun would continue fighting for another 7 years, retiring at the age of 60. During their time together, the two of them managed to complete over 700 missions together, slaying thousands of high-level demons and protecting many of Minerva's cities and settlements.

In 1901, when Jun was 29 years old, she had cemented herself in the history books by taking on a mission unlike any other. Her platoon was assigned to The Sanmyaku Mountain Range in order to investigate a potential sighting of Kojitenski Ankou himself. In order to ensure the safety of her platoon, Jun decided that it would be best if she travelled alone to the location. Upon arrival, she found Ankou in a valley and engaged in combat with him. Due to the death of Gakuto in 1899, which marked the first time in decades that an Upper Rank Demon had been slain, Ankou took it upon himself to seek out the killer as he was intrigued by their strength and wanted to kill them himself to keep the rest of The Mezurashi safe. The two of them engaged in combat, where Ankou was stunned to see the techniques of Gakuto, his former disciple, being used against him. Due to the vast amount of abilities and powers that Jun had acquired throughout her years, the two of them were equally matched for the majority of the fight. After 2 hours of combat, Ankou decided it was no longer worth fighting Jun as he saw no way of winning the fight, so he fled into the mountains, escaping Jun and entering a period of hiding. This battle made Jun the only individual in history to defeat Ankou in combat, and her victory resulted in a period of peace in Minerva that would last until Jun's eventual disappearance, as Ankou was terrified of her possession abilities. It is because of Jun that Ankou wishes to exterminate every possessor that is alive. Jun was awarded the Medal of Honor in 1902 for her heroic acts.

Jun's later years and eventual disappearance are shrouded in mystery. After Jun retired from The Purorigu in 1932 at the age of 60 following the death of Geiki, she dedicated the remainder of her life to studying the way of the spirits, spending many of her elder years in The Papilio Forest in order to gain wisdom and "seek out the truth". Jun was determined to figure out where the Unusuals came from and what their origins were. As she aged into her senior years, Jun started descending into madness and fanaticism as a result of consistently communicating with ancient spirits in the forest. She divorced Elrod in 1940, 5 years before her disappearance, and devoted her life to meditation and living alongside the ancient spirits in an attempt to uncover the truth behind the origins of the Unusuals. Jun continued to descend into insanity as she learned more about the secrets of the world through the spirits whom she communicated with, many of which were thousands of years old.

When Jun was 73 years old, she wrote a letter to Elrod, marking their first and only communication since their divorce. In the letter, Jun stated that she had spoken to a wise dragon spirit that she met in The Papilio Forest, inquiring about the origins of the war, as well as where the Unusuals came from. She stated that the dragon finally revealed to her the truth behind the Unusuals, including information regarding where they came from and how the war began, though she did not specify the details. With this newly acquired information, Jun wrote that she was going to travel alone to a "*Dark and Far Away Place*", and that she entrusted Elrod with all of her material belongings, and asked him to write an obituary for her, as she did not plan on returning any time soon. She was never seen or heard from since, leading some to believe she had potentially found Ankou's place of hiding, and was either killed or imprisoned by him. Others believe she died of natural causes during her voyage to the land, as is told in her obituary from the year 1948, when she was presumed deceased after having been missing for 3 years.

There is a great deal of controversy regarding Jun's fate, with the public torn between her husband Elrod's account of her death being the result of natural causes, while others believe she had uncovered the truth behind everything and was killed in an attempt to bring it to an end. If the latter is true, that would make Jun the only extraordinary individual in history to have ever known the truth behind The Unusuals, where they came from, and the origins of the war.

## Fighting Style

Jun, being a blacksmith herself, forged her own katana out of metals she found in a fallen meteor. She would go on to use this same sword for her entire life, never once breaking it. It's unknown how her sword was able to hold up for so long, as even the strongest of swords using today's modern technology are still prone to breaking. She was a single-wielding samurai, using techniques both taught to her, but also inventing her own fighting techniques that would later be taught at Eritoakademi.

Her primary fighting style, which she dubbed "*Moon Jitsu*" was invented by her in the late 1890s, and was based on the philosophy of "*moving gracefully with the moon, such as the tides do*". This attacking style was commonly rejected as a fallacy, as there was no way of proving that such a style could be more effective as a result of astral interference. However Jun proved this false as she demonstrated an alarming increase in power with her style when performed at night.

After this attacking style was brought to the public's attention, it was taught to future classes of extraordinary individuals, and is now a standard technique used by almost everyone. It is one of the "Big Three" fighting styles taught at Eritoakademi, the other two being "*Seigyo Kuki" (Controlled Breathing), and "Ritsuzo" (Statue Art).*
