**Engoku Tengu** is a Kishin that inhabited Tatsuyama Town.

## Appearance

Engoku Tengu is a large red oni with six arms. He has a smaller and larger halo around his head. There are multiple metal/mineral horns coming out of his body. He has a big belly and a large yellow metal/mineral horn coming out of it, which is his core horn.

## Synopsis

### Tatsuyama Town Arc

After Musashi and Kojiro kill some nekomata oni, Engoku Tengu appears from the sky. Musashi manages to slice him in two, but Engoku Tengu regenerates. The worshippers give him some offerings and after eating them, Engoku Tengu regains his true form, which he last did five years ago. He easily knocks Musashi and Kojiro and grabs Kojiro's sword to eat it, however, as Kojiro refuses to release it, Engoku Tengu dragged and smacked him around in attempt to make him drop it. Having enough, he pins down Kojiro and plugs the sword out of his hands and eats it. Musashi then climbs on his belly and attacks him, which surprisingly causes him pain. Wanting to kill Musashi, Engoku Tengu ends up hitting his own belly and helping Musashi break it open to retrieve Kojiro's sword.

Takeda Bushi appears and surround Engoku Tengu, who regenerates and gets enraged. The Bushi manages to restrict the Kishin. Eventually they prepare an attack to destroy his core horn, but just as they are about to shoot, Musashi causes a landslide, causing the Bushi to loose control over Engoku Tengu, who then manages to dodge the attack. Musashi then jumps in its belly trying to slash its core horn, but breaks his pickaxe. Engoku Tengu prepares to kill Musashi, but Naotora shows up and slashes Engoku Tengu's core horn and kills it.

## Appearance

Jisai was a tall, well- built man with long hair what is tied up. He had a scar on the left side of his face.
He wore a light coloured kimono and a sword on his side tied with chains. He had to use a walking stick because he lost his right leg.

His son, Kojiro greatly resembles him.

## Personality

Jisai was a kind and calm man even tough all the harshness he had to bear from the townsfolk because of his  Bushi origin. He greatly loved his son and was concerned about his well- being. Jisai was proud of his ancestors and always encouraged Kojiro to be proud to be a Bushi descendant.

## History

15 years ago, Jisai was formerly in the Uesugi band.

Although temporary, he managed to accomplished a great feat of exterminating Kishin, and won the title of "hero." Although his fame wasn't in par with rest of the "Five Grand Generals", there were still many Bushis admiring him, especially the Hojo Bushi Band. Not far from that point, he disappeared from the face of Hinomoto, and Jisai was nowhere to be found. Many thought he was dead.
However, it was later revealed that he was formerly the "Obsidian Goddess's Sheath" and had to hide in a rural village governed by the Kishin to fulfill his role as the "Obsidian Goddess's Sheath", to protect the Musashi, the "Vessel of the Obsidian Goddess". Jisai also bore a child named Kojiro Kanemaki, who is around the same age as Musashi. Musashi and Kojira was rasied together by Jisai, and taught them swordsmanship in desire to raise them into formidable Bushis.

However, one day, Jisai's location was discovered by the "obsidian eights", and in an effort to save Kojiro and Musashi. He sacrificed his life in a brutal death of cow tearing punishment, in which his body was ripped into shreds. It instilled a heavy trauma on both Kojiro and Musashi. Despite seeing that, Musashi still manages to pursue his ambition of become a Bushi. However, the execution induced a strong negative impression on Kojiro, making him doubt the existence of Bushi, and his father, Jisai's teachings.

## Etymology

* The name **Jisai** means "self/oneself" (自) (**ji**) and "purification, Buddhist food, room, worship, avoid, alike" (斎) (**sai**).
* Jisai's surname **Kanemaki** means "bell, chime" (鐘) (**kane**) and "volume, roll, reel, book" (巻) (**maki**).

## Trivia

* Jisai's character is probably inspired by the real life swordsman Kanemaki Jisai, who was believed to be the master of Sasaki Kojirō
* Jisai smoked so Kojiro probably took up this habit after him.
* He taught Musashi and Kojiro swordsmanship.

Volpuit

While the weather of Volpuit is significantly more tame than that of it's southern neighbor, the Pale Lands, it still is a cold and harsh climate. Similar in blood to the Saren people, they share the same religion.

The people of Volpuit originally were one of the largest civilizations in the world, spanning the entirety of what is currently known as the Pale Lands as well. However, the age of ice soon thrust the eastern civilization into chaos.

The current Queen of Volpuit is Islajörn Ulvestad, known for being a ruthless leader ready to slit any throat that speaks against her. She rules from the capital, Astreheim.

## Saren Blood

The ancestors of the modern Saren people were a large portion of the population living in the coastal ports of Volpuit. However, when the cold began to brew, they immigrated in large masses across the sea to what is now Sairenwai. The split of the Saren and the Fahetan(Anvelayn) people came about after the latter saw truths in the words of the gods of the people of Streia. However, the Saren people refused to acknowledge any god other than Esylbourne. This led to a long, war that ended with the forced relocation of the Illean people, as well as a bloodied occupation of the western lands.

Magic in Streia

All magic in Streia is given by the gods. Every few mortals are imbued with powers but these mortals are called champions and are chosen by their respective god.

Non-champions can still use magic in the forms of alchemy, which is normally a weaker form of magic, scrolls, a temporary but powerful form of magic, and tomes, that when read give the reader a permanent power unless the tome is destroyed. There are many other enchanted items, such as rings and weapons that are scattered throughout, though all magical items were originally from the gods as all magic is given by the gods.

Magic is outlawed in Sairenwai as most have denounced the gods.
Ai-To Resistance

Shortly after the United Arms Masters were presumed dead, the Neo Sentinels ordered Adorjan Nel and his brigade to take over Aishiru-Toshi - the base of operations for the United Arms of South Tokyo. Many remaining warriors pulled themselves out of the dirt and worked together with citizens of their city to try their hand against these invaders. They were led by Botán Gardener, a war veteran from Niger, Africa.

## Basic Information

Morgon Visrahee(father)

Wyna Visrahee(Mother)†

**Nemaer "Ames" Amesaurn Visrahee** is the heir and only prince of Belovea. Named after his paternal grandfather, Nemaer, and well as his deceased uncle, Amesaurn, he was chosen to follow in his father's footsteps and to one day rule Belovea. His twin sister, Mariana is one of his closest confidants, as they share a telekinetic link within their minds. He is also the older brother of Ealyn, though they are not as close.

He realized he was exclusively attracted to men early on in life, and while this is accepted within Belovea, he worried that it was not ideal as he would be required to have heirs.
