Kusho

## Appearance

Kusho is a spirit like entity, despite being able to change shape, she mostly stays in a more humanoid form. She wears clothing that most closely resembles a Kimono.

## Abilities

Kusho's most notable ability is shapeshifting, made possible by her energy-like body. The larger the shape is she shifts into, the more difficult it is to hold it, larger means more energy must be produced, which in turn means more energy is consumed.

## Story

### Old Texts

Kusho is described as a psychopathic demon who murders everything in her path, ruling her territory while treating her subjects as slaves. As it is known later, these texts are all fake, written by Archpurity Prisma.

### Backstory

Kusho was not born in Arinetos, her origins lie far away in a distant corner of the universe. She once lived in a black fog shrouded dimension far far away together with her family, it was a dark but peaceful life. Her brother Darcas was not something you would call a good kid, he was problematic, evil even. Despite this, their mother always wanted the best for them, so she told Kusho to promise her to protect her brother, no matter what happens. A promise that would later be revealed to be a huge mistake.

Eventually after many years of peace, something stirred at the horizen, a warm breeze that would turn into a raging inferno. Her home was being attacked by a greater one known as Zatacyfer, a soul devouring being that is often described as a living hell. It was searching for the god hidden inside the black fog with the intend of devouring it, so ripping apart its domain was no issue. Kusho and Darcas were being saparated from the rest of their family in the chaos of armageddon raining down on their home. The whole dimension being ripped to pieces triggered a distortion, it ended in a massive energy burst that blew everything away. After barely surviving their homes destruction, they wandered through the universe but every time they settled in a dimension, something would go wrong. Some day they made their way to Arinetos, unfortunately, her brother was still full of anger and malice and so tried to take over whatever place they just arrived at, trying to make it as comfortable as possible for himself. It was this moment where even Kusho couldn't stand this behavior anymore, she brought him all this way to a peaceful place only for him to go insane again. She confronted him about it but he wouldn't listen, eventually they were being noticed by the Arch Rulers, specifically Raitolgur. He saw the rampaging creature and attacked it but Kusho insisted on a peaceful solution. But her brother was not gonna stop just by losing an arguement, so she had to gather herself. Against what she once promised a long time ago, she assisted Raitolgur in fighting her brother, a battle that was eventually won. With a combined attack, they put Darcas down for good, ending his rampage- His last dying words were only curses against his sister who just betrayed him, something that saddened her greatly. But this only made her realize that she promised to protect a maniac all these years ago. After all this trouble a voice echoed across the green hills, offering Kusho to join the Arch Rulers, promising her divine protection. She could only agree to this, having a home and people around her. To this day, she does not know if her parents are still alive or not.

### Story Plot

Kusho first noticed the reunion of the Arch Rulers when abyssal energy started to flow on the surface. She previously had her suspicions when the same happened around her home in the Elmosar Depths. When she actually got back things already went out of control, one of her friendshas died even. Because of that, she started to blame herself for not coming out from hiding earlier, this feeling is later overcome when her power was really needed in the last fight against their nemesis.

## Void Knife Leeran

Leeran is Kusho's ruler gift, it looks like a simple kitchen knife that seems to be enhanced with channeling magic. Due to this, it can channel any type of energy depending on the user, even remembering the types of energy it touched. This unique memory gives it the ability to even generate energy types it remembers with some exceptions. Leeran is also said to be capable of ripping apart space-time if the wielder focuses enough.
