Suzaku the Vermillion bird of the South

Sazuka The Vermillion bird of the South is a member of the Four Chinese Symbols that first appeared in the book The Autistic Hero 2: Worlds Clashing. It is one of the four guardian beasts of china and also is possessed like its other members. It is also called Zhuque and it is representing fire, the directional south, and the Summer Season correspondingly. It was awoken in hong kong's seal and burst into a rage as it is also possessed and the bird spread fires everywhere and sent the summer wind into chaos. It was eventually defeated by both the help of Tolup the Morph Slime and Xenith Stephenson who freed the bird's mind by bashing the red gem on its chest and the primordial anger was driven out. Suzaku gave Xenith the knowledge of how to find the Omega Fire Magic and Xenith now knows he needs to kill Hephaestus.

## Appearance

Suzaku looks similar to a phoenix with scarlet red feathers and a face similar to a crow. The creature has 3 toed feet and 5 tails with orange to yellow feathers. These tails all have a single blue feather in the center and these feathers create blue flames. The creature is around 100 meters tall and a wingspan of 200 meters while being 100 meters long.

## Lore

Suzaku was created and maintained by the Yellow Dragon Huanglong. Suzaku was in charge of the Summer season and fire and was as powerful as Hephaestus is with Omega Fire Magic and in fact Suzaku used to get along with until the greek gods became dicks. Suzaku much like Qinglong, it decided to get her own disciple so she chose a Girl from hong kong known as Huoxing(Fire Star) and Suzaku taught her an advanced form of Crane Style known as Fire Comet style which has the user use the cover and elegance of ashes to fight. Before Suzaku was sealed it created the Phoenix species with its ash feathers and they began to fly around to other continents which is why they appear a lot in mythologies. However the Vermilion bird was sealed alongside its allies and the Yellow Emperor also was sealed. Huoxing immediately went to Tiankong in fear trying to understand what happened and they realized this invasive got sealed their masters. Huoxing in her desperation began to cause slight mis-orders in the form of burning churches but she realized the mistake this caused as people saw this happen and this was how people began to burn witches at the stake. Suzaku was released and then re sealed whenever the primordial anger got in its systems and made it evil. Huoxing heard of how Tiankong found a way to free his master by the hero Xenith Stephenson so learning this Huoxing desperately searched for him. She eventually finds him at The Mighty Mouth and since he is alone at the booth She approaches and after the room got louder she broke down crying and begs him to help her save her master. After learning Fire Comet style with a lot of tripping and falling, Xenith was able to go fight Suzaku in Hong Kong. The fight burned most of the battlefield and Xenith was only able to defeat it because of Tolup the Morph Slime's sudden entrance from a passing airplane and he became a massive Rain cloud and put out the fires and weakened the bird of flames. It is then that Xenith and Tolup defeat the beast by both throwing Balls of Shadow at the crystal at its underside feathers and this caused the primordial anger to leave. The bird then was saved and gave it the whereabouts of the other beasts and where to get Omega Fire Magic. Due to this, now Xenith is friends with Huoxing.

## Abilities

Ambient Energy Manipulation:

Directional Lordship: This lordship is like with Seiryu's except its for the south and not east.

Aestatekinesis: The Vermilion bird is able to tap and induce the summer and the powers/forces it represents: heat, sun, growing season and abundance, hard work for those working the land and rest for the others.

Transcendent Element Manipulation: Just like with its brethren.

Photokinesis: The bird can create, shape and manipulate visible light, commonly referred to as light, is electromagnetic radiation that is visible to the human eye, and is responsible for the sense of sight. Primary properties of visible light are intensity, propagation direction, frequency or wavelength spectrum, and polarization, while its speed in a vacuum (299,792,458 meters per second/186,000 MPS) is one of the fundamental constants of nature. Visible light, as with all types of electromagnetic radiation (EMR), is experimentally found to always move at this speed in a vacuum. This allows it to create Lightblades of its own.

Pyrokinesis: The Bird can create, shape, control, generate and manipulate every form/type of fire, the rapid oxidation of a material in the exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, light, and various reaction products, flame being the visible portion of the fire. Depending on the substances alight, and any impurities outside, the color of the flame and the fire's intensity will be different. The user can also completely control the temperature of the fire at will.

Flight: Suzaku is able to fly faster than any bird in the world and is equal speed with Xenith Stephenson.

Tail Flame Spheres: When spinning, Suzaku's blue tail feathers will release sudden fireballs everywhere which spreads explosions and directions everywhere.

Foresight: Much like its brethren, Suzaku can get a glance of the enemy's next move via that gem only this time its from below.
