## Sajin

Drawn by Ryushusupercat (Talk)(Talk)

**Sajin the Horse** (pronounced "sah-HEEN") is the leader of the Cloudtop Freedom Fighters.

## Physical Description

A relatively athletic horse who stands a fair bit over three feet tall, Sajin has a somewhat short muzzle with slit nostrils, somewhat long, diamond-shaped ears, and a long tail that is comprised primarily of long hairs.

His fur is primarily raw umber in color, with a fallow muzzle, facial markings, inner ears, forearms, chest, and stomach, while his hair, which is long and tied back in a ponytail with two bands, is black in color. His tail is the same color as his hair and has two bands in it, and his eyes are blue bell in color.

Sajin's typical attire consists of a Crayola periwinkle sleeveless shirt, Crayola periwinkle fingerless gloves with white cuffs and slate gray padding on the backs, baggy slate gray pants, and Crayola periwinkle and slate gray boots with black cuffs.

## History

### Eggman's Attack

When Sajin, Mei and Unari were 14 years old, the Eggman Empire's influence had started to stretch towards their mountain home. As very few of the villagers had any combat experience, the trio had to improvise. Sajin had the idea to advantage of the knowledge they had of the area to outpace and outwit Eggman's Badniks, such as luring them to ledges, only to shove them over the edge and destroy them. The myriad of connecting tunnels that ran throughout the mountain range helped them accomplish this greatly.

But this would prove to not be enough. Therefore, in between attacks from Eggman's Badniks, the trio took the time to participate in combative training, helped by the village's elders, who were the only ones with any combat knowledge. They also ended up befriending the son of one elder, an impulsive squirrel named Renkaeve.

### A New Threat

Two years later, after on-and-off skirmishes between Eggman's Badniks and Sajin, Mei, Unari and Renkaeve, a formidable threat soon appeared at the Cloudtop Mountains. For a while now, The Thundering Armada had been content to only tax the settlements located in the Moonlight Plains Zone. But rumors of powerful and valuable artifacts hidden deep within the Cloudtop Mountains had reached the ears of Hachiro Shimasu, the Armada's leader. Wanting to see these rumors for himself (and take the possible spoils, as well), Hachiro took his two trusted confidants, Arata and Asuka Mori, as well as a bunch of footsoldiers, to Cloudtop Village.

## Abilities

While once a decent fighter in his own right, the Cloudtop Village Elders helped Sajin to hone his abilities, allowing him to become quite formidable. Being a horse, he has incredibly powerful legs that can deliver punishing kicks. He can also throw a decent punch, and overall he functions primarily as a close range combatant. His intellect also makes him an admirable tactician and leader.

### Hover Wispon

Like most Freedom fighters, Sajin has access to a Wispon, in particular a Hover Wispon. While it doesn't have the most incredible combat capabilities, it is able to generate shockwaves capable of blowing away lightweight opponents (like most Badniks); it also allows him to hover in the air for roughly ten seconds of flight (while also allowing him to both glide and slow his fall), and is also able to launch small, concussive spheres of wind for a decent ranged attack.

### Strengths/Resistances

Sajin has no specific resistances to any Elements or energy-types. He is quite fast, and can easily outpace slower foes and evade their attacks; this agility is further compounded by his Hover Wispon. He is also deceptively strong in terms of physical strength, but certainly not as strong as the likes of Eshumo; his strength is primarily in his legs, as well.

### Weaknesses

Sajin's only means of attacking from a distance is via his Hover Wispon, and both offensive options lack raw power, being more used for simply keeping opponents at bay rather than actually defeating them; this suits him quite well, however, since he's not too durable in the first place and typically tries to avoid taking unnecessary hits.

## Personality

A patient fellow with a keen eye for observation, Sajin is well-liked among his peers for his gentle and friendly nature. He is intelligent and clever, and it was his idea to use the tunnels of the Cloudtop Mountains to trick the Badniks by getting around them and shoving them off the ledges near the tunnel entrances.
