Shizuka Sessyoin

**Shizuka Sessyoin** (*殺生院静香, Sessyoin Shizuka*) known as the **Devil's Bodhisattva** (*悪魔の菩薩, Akuma no bosatu*) is a celestial being and a member of Elysium's Sessyoin Clan.

## Background

He originated from Elysium which is said to be a fabled technological city said to delve upon a floating island above the clouds. It is known as The Skyscraper City Among the Skies. It is a place where only the true Sessyoin Clan and Otsuwari Clan resides, Elysium is known for its extremely advanced technology as well as harnessing energy that has never been before utilized in history, due to this the city has earned its fabled title and currently resides within a cloaking device that hides it from society. Shizuka arrived to Earth a long time ago. Even from a very young age, he was said to be so loved and adored. Society loved him merely because of his innocence and immense beauty. Only until then, he found his existence meaningless until he desired to 'save' people from suffering. He went to school in Elysium where he earned a degree in psychology. He used these newfound skills to manipulate the minds of people in order to greatly influence a great number of people via brainwashing. Using these natural talents, he has established an enormous and yet a devout following of people from all walks of life as a result of developing an online virtual (sex) cult that went by the name of Way to Paradise.

As such it is a 'school' of esoteric Buddhism founded on the principal of using energy to control supernatural and cosmic forces and through these energetic rites and rituals to attain 'enlightenment'. The cult is no different in its approach except that it chooses to focus on sexual energy. It is a cult comprised of brainwashed believers who worshipped Shizuka as a Buddhist Deity, utilizing sexual practices and orgies in order to fully satiate the desires of the Devil's Bodhisattva, who was in fact, Shizuka himself. All of the believers who followed Shizuka committed suicide, men and women adored him so much that they killed themselves. People who fell deeply in love, people who were addicted to maltreating him, people who were dependent on conversation with him, people who hated him to death, people who lost themselves in carnality. All with the same result. Suicide. Even offline, people who got involved with him would almost invariably commit suicide.

## Personality

In truth, Shizuka found humans to be chaotic creatures who lack order in their lives. He believed that the world must all suffer, and as the dark to the Buddha's light, he has found his existence to be the absolute embodiment of sexual desire and all forms of desire. Whereas only the Buddha, who has by all rights mastered the esoteric ability to completely turn off his sexual desire, is able to match up to this desire incarnate. For this reason alone, he is known as the Pleasure Heaven and The Third Pleasure Heaven of Deeply Grateful Existence.

## Abilities

Because of his existence known as the antithesis of the Buddha, he has access to the Vajra abilities which are a family of abilities, one of them being the Irises of Vajra which continuously float around him. He has the ability to utilize Heaven's Hole, which is a void within himself and can seal people within that void indefinitely with an immense gravitational pull. This gaping void is said to be the deepest recesses of Shizuka's blackened being and can completely consume that said person into the darkness among the many lost souls who are now trapped within Shizuka, along with losing their sense of individuality. The Vajra Irises wield the ability to supercharge itself with condensed energy that, when fired, can decimate nations and even split mountains in half. He also wields the Black Hands of Abyssmal Paradise which are said to be materialized from an abyss-like void of darkness which Shizuka is said to be able to conjure behind him. These hands can be used in versatility in battle. The abyss-like void is comprised of the many consumed and lost souls (including his followers) who had became 'one' with Shizuka, you could even still hear their cries for help, screams and terrifying whispers of many untold secrets.
