Sho/Minazuki

## General Overview

Sho/Minazuki, who find themselves involved in Legends Of Phandelver, are a soul-chained duo of a human and tiefling. Both a comic relief and a blood lusting demon, the two find themselves to strive for one thing, to have the best time in their life. Oh and to separate themselves to be two people again.

## History

With nowhere to go and his parents dead, (In Perimoore) Sho was captured by a demon corporation and sent to a facility. His days were only a small glimmer of the world outside him, Hell, and the painful and agony torture he had to endure. However, Sho refused to submit, and continued to persist, which made it difficult for the demons. It had been years since the first day he enter and he still continued to refuse, though his morality was slowly going away. It was then where during one of his days as the test subject where he was accidentally infused with a sealed demon, Minazuki, and the two souls merged to become one. The demons, confused on what happened, locked Sho in his cell and never used him. But that was only their last nail to their coffins. Only a few months later Sho broke loose and slaughtered half of their workers, escaping.

Minazuki during those few months with Sho in his cell explained to him who he was. A once powerful second in command demon lord and Blood Hunter, who served Sussano, was sealed away in a rune tome by a group of adventurers. Of course he wanted revenge, but realized they might as well be dead now, considering how long he was sealed away. Minazuki was indeed the one who tempted Sho to escape the facility with violent means, even taking over his body a few times. Sho wasn't fond with this idea, but eventually allowed him too. Now that they escaped the facility, Sho/Minazuki had 2 goals in mind. One, to find someone or something that can split the two souls to be two seperate people again. And two, to explore the world together, and enjoy their time on earth. The second idea was more of Sho's idea, but Minazuki didn't exactly mind. After escaping hell, the two traveled around Phandelver, exploring the place together while doing a couple of bounties here and there.

It is here where Sho began to learn the artstyle of the dual wielding blade and Battlemaster skills. But due to not being trained properly, he uses more of a dirty fighting tactic and underdog skills. A few more years passed, and Sho finds himself in a market, talking to Minazuki on what they should buy today. It is here where he meets with Hecate, who offered him this really cool looking knife. Of course Sho bought it, it looked cool after all. After a few hours of that small interaction, which Minazuki protested, Sho uses his new knife on an enemy, only to be transported into Elpis, in a snowy biome, next to a Starbucks. It is here, after a few days of traveling in the snow where he met with the Middy Gs (aka the main characters of Legends of Phandelver). Minazuki didn't trust them at all, and despised Hitori to the deep, but was forced to tag along since Sho decided to join with them. And now... Sho/Minazuki travels with them, helping them with their quest and finding someone who can split the two. It is interesting to mention that Minazuki started to lighten up to Hitori, but still despises him.

## Appearance

Sho/Minazuki is a 5'9 humanoid figure. As of currently, they are 18 year olds and weigh 121 lbs, having light-tan skin and short messy red hair. Due to the souls being merged, some of Minazuki's traits are applied to Sho's body. A few to note are the 2 black horns, red demon tail, and fangs. Interestingly, Sho can see Minazuki as a specter/ghost, but it appears that only Sho can see him. Minazuki can only be seen as a shadowy figure with demon-like features like the horns, tails, and even claws. And if Minazuki is the one in control, Sho can also be seen as this ghost/specter to him. Sho's appearance is just sho without the few demonic features. Sho has heterochromia, a grey eye and red eye. This and his pupils are ways to indicate if Sho or Minazuki is the one talking. Sho's pupils are normal human, and his red eye doesn't glow or shine. If Minazuki is in control, his pupils become snake like, and his red eye glows a bit.

## Personality

Sho and Minazuki are a good example of foil characters. Sho can be described as a child. Both literally and mentally. He's very energetic and happy, and loves to do things that he sees as fun. He even whines time to time if he thinks it's too scary or dumb. He's definitely not mature, but he always want to help his friends in need. Sho also likes to play the flute.

Minazuki on the other hand is the more logical one. He's still a blood lust demon, yes, but he thinks more logically about his situation and is seen more of the tired one. He usually hates new people Sho interacts with, and would most likely kill the ones who break Sho's heart.

Despite the clear difference, the two do share some similarities. Like the lust to see their enemies cry in pain, bounty hunting, and cooking! Yes, the two can somehow cook. This is still a question that still needs answering.

## Abilities and Skills

Sho and Minazuki possess different skills, so they usually have to swap in battle to use their skills and abilities. Sho possesses the skill as a Battle Master Fighter, however his fighting is a bit more dirty and improvised due to not being trained properly. As a Battle Master, he uses his various maneuvers to help aid his teammates in battle. He also can exceed his limits despite being a little bit thin with his surges and extra attacks.

Minazuki is a Blood Hunter, allowing him to use his and other people's blood to benefit himself and his teammates (this is uncommon to see.) Using the various blood curses and Hemocrafts, Minazuki is quite literally a vampire on steroids.

A unique skill both Sho and Minazuki both gained during Sho's torture is the Deathwish ability. Deathwish only activates willingly if they ever get knocked to 0 hp. When activated, Sho/Minazuki enters a undying rage, and recovers to 1 hp. Using second wind or have any healing spells on him can be activated, but it will only heal half. Sho/Minazuki can continue to fight, but will no longer use AC when being attacked. Instead he must make a dexterity saving throw to dodge attacks. If Sho/Minazuki ever gets knocked to 0 hp while in this state, the two permanently die. There may be more unique skills to Sho/Minazuki, but only Deathwish is known.

## Relation With the Cast

* Hitori: Sho really likes Hitori, mainly for his funny fire hair and stupidity. Sho considers him a great friend, and loves to join him in his tomfoolery and robbery. Sho can also relate to his parents dying, and wants to comfort Hitori if he ever felt sad about that. There are a few times when Sho objects to Hitori's plans. Minazuki just despises Hitori. He hates the fact Hitori can do stupid things, and he's mostly the one who has to stop him. But overtime, Minazuki slowly warmed up to Hitori, and started to like him a bit. Still despises him though.
* Panupa: Although the two don't interact as much, Sho and Minazuki respects Panupa, and lets him do his thing. Sho does like to try and give him hugs. His reasoning for this is unknown.
* Silk: Again, the two don't interact as much, but Sho seems to be very happy around Silk, and even refers to her as Mrs. Silk, despite her trying to tell him it's Mrs. Inferno. Minazuki doesn't exactly hate her, but doesn't like her either, acting more like a bully around her. He usually likes to make fun of her height.
* Croagunk: Sho and Minazuki have a similar feeling to Crogaunk. They don't really interact with him as much, and see him as a valuable teammate and respect him. Sho does try to explain to Croagunk some stories he heard if he gets the chance too.
* Gyro: Minazuki does his best to not interact with Gryo most of the times, but hearing his stories are very intriguing to him. For Sho, He just questions how a man can look that buff like him.
* Huirtz: With a shadow of a doubt, these two hate Huirtz. Sho, not that much, but he's just annoyed of his constant sales pitch and non stop crusade to become a warforge. Minazuki has the same feeling as Sho, but just takes that annoyed and turns it into wrath.
* Dante: For similar reasons to Hitori, Sho likes Dante because of the funni fire hair. Minazuki doesn't really have a hatred or liking to Dante, and just treats him as another party member.
* Kindel: Despite her being an Ex-Terrorist, Sho isn't really fazed at that, and is really cheery around her. He also likes to invade her kitchen and make food. Minazuki treats Kindel as a friend and also invades her kitchen to make food.
* Tarvis: Who is this man?

* Daadi: Despite being the same age, Sho doesn't understand most of the stuff Daadi talks about and pesters her about it, trying to figure out what it means. Minazuki just treats her as a teammate, and ignores her at times.

* Joy: Minazuki has no quarrel against Joy, and usually just ignores her. Sho on the other hand likes to talk to her non stop about ice cream, and other child related stuff. He sometimes forgets the fact she's the enemy.

* Hecate: Sho, despite being sent to Elpis by them (because the knife was rigged), sees them as a spooky and mysterious yet interesting person to talk to. Minazuki has a grudge against them, because he were sent to a place he didn't even know nor want to go too, and was forced too anyways.

* Charlie: "You want a beef jerky Charlie?"-Sho trying to calm down Charlie "heheheh... Funny Cat..."- Minazuki making Charlie mad.

* Overseer: The interaction with the Overseer usually devolves into: "Dad is that you?" "No, I'm not your dad." when it comes to Sho. Minazuki and the Overseer's interactions are unknown yet.
* Kaine: "I never met this person in my life"- Sho not remembering the fact she burnt an entire lake.

## Trivia

* Sho/Minazuki was heavily based of the Persona 4 Arena Ultimax Sho Minazuki

* During the time Sho/Minazuki traveled before meeting the other Phandelver Characters, they both interacted with some of GlizzyCrusader#3885 's other characters. To name a couple, Sho and Kiryu had a spar match when they crossed paths, and Minazuki had something to do with the disappearance of Aiko, Kiryu's friend. Sho/Minazuki also interacted and befriended a silent gladiator named "Marauder" who taught the two how to make BBQ, like kebabs.
* One time, Minazuki was doing crack in the background while the others talked. This was never confirmed nor to be seen because no one heard me say that minazuki was doing crack.
* Although not confirmed, a person who can channel and talk to the spirits can most likely see the specter/ghost of sho or minazuki, depending on who's in control currently.
* Sho wields the Unspeakable, his Divine Hand. He decided to make fun of Minazuki being edgy and make it look like a thin chainsaw sword. Now Minazuki bullies Sho for choosing a good option for a sword design. At max level, the sword can fuse Sho and Minazuki together to form Minazuki's true form. This has yet to be seen.
* Sho's favorite dessert is Cookies. Chocolate Chip Cookies. Minazuki's favorite dessert is dango. As for food, Sho likes to make kebabs and Minazuki likes to make steak salad.
* Sho is most likely the only person in the cast who doesn't know how to use a gun.
* If Sho/Minazuki ever gets flirted by someone, they will do everything they can to act awkward to avoid talking to them. He willingly wants to get no bitches. This will change soon.
* "god damn it gyro you burnt the bread again."
