Daikokuten

Juichi "Daikokuten" Fujukin is an original character and is a supporting antagonist in Final Sunrise. He is a demon affiliated with The Twelve Kizuki, holding the position of Upper Moon Four.

## Appearance

Juichi appears as an average male with a mildly athletic build and white hair. He wears brighter colored kimonos made of fine material, generally in red, white, and gold color themes. His face is always hidden behind a red and white smiling fox mask, though the mask's expression can seemingly change at will. The kanji for "Upper Moon" and "Seven" are painted where the eyes would be. A multitude of good luck charms hang from strings tied around his neck, wrists, and even ankles; clattering and jingling with even the slightest movements save for the times he is actively suppressing presence.

## Personality

Juichi is ultimately consumed by his lust for wealth and power; these desires being the driving force for why he became a demon and so happily began devouring humans by the score. Juichi is also exceedingly superstitious and holds an unwavering belief in 'Luck', a force he uses to decide a majority of the choices in his life like which humans to hunt, if he should engage in battle with a strong foe, or what direction to travel when searching for something. He draws his superstitious beliefs from a wide spread area of cultures and religions. His lust for wealth and power, mixed with his ego and reliance on luck, led him to giving himself the nickname 'Daikokuten'; a name shared by the god of fortune and wealth.

Despite being a demon, Juichi presents as an extremely care-free and happy-go-lucky individual. He attempts to remain on good terms with his fellow Kizuki, members of the family, and especially the Demon Queen as he sees them as vital allies in his quest for wealth and power though he wouldn't hesitate to betray them if 'Luck' deemed it necessary. He will even fraternize with enemies a bit, generally offering them blessings of luck or lamenting their misfortune.

Juichi sees humans as fodder or food, their existence is to be fuel for his own ambitions. He considers any of his victims 'Lucky' to be devoured by him as he sees life as a human to be unfortunate and pointless, and that their deaths at his hands will not only be quick and painless, but will contribute to a far greater cause. (His own rise to dominance.) Because of these beliefs, Juichi does not exude the usual malice or disgust for humans that many other demons do. If anything, he truly pities them.

His perpetual good mood is, in reality, quite fragile as any omens of misfortune (The numbers 4, 9, or 13, black cats crossing his path, breaking mirrors, etc.) can quickly sour his mood; either sending him into a depressive spiral or drawing a fit of rage from him.

Despite his unusually staunch beliefs, Juichi is exceedingly clever and capable of devising complicated and intricate plans in little to no time especially in matters of finance or survival. This has lead some to believe his reliance on luck to be only a mere act to throw people off.

## Abilities

As is befitting of a demon in his rank, Juichi has an incredible amount of durability, stamina, and endurance that far exceeds what humans are capable of and even most of demonkind.  He can regenerate near instantaneously and his speed, reflexes, and strength go far beyond what his physical form may suggest.  He is supremely skilled in combat, a master with the Naginata (His preferred weapon), and extremely quick witted.

Outside of his demonic physical stats and martial prowess honed over several centuries, Juichi also has his BDA and several unique abilities:

* **Weaponized Wealth:**  With a snap of his fingers, Juichi can launch a coin from his hand with extreme precision and power.  The projectiles are quite lethal, able to penetrate armor and bone with ease.  For all intents and purposes, these projectiles are still just average coins and gain no extra immunities just because he uses them.  Quick Demon Slayers could dodge the projectiles with the most skilled able to deflect or even cleave the coins from mid-air.
* **Lucky:** It’s hard to say if Juichi’s luck is just pure chance or an actual passive ability he has, but he seems to believe in it whole-heartedly.  Most of his decisions are decided based on games of chance; i.e. coin flips, dice, drawing straws, etc.  The choices generally give him the best direction, generally drawing him away from dangerous situations or allowing him to get an advantage.  Juichi uses these games of chance to select his victims as well, always preferring to eat the ‘lucky’ ones.  (NOTE: Juichi’s ‘Luck’ skill is NOT an all-powerful ‘get out of trouble’ card, it’s mostly here for flavor to fit the character.  While other demons may use their intellect, agility, or strategy to gain an advantage or avoid traps, Juichi often uses ‘luck’ instead.)
* **Undetectable:** Juichi's ability to suppress his presence allows him to go unnoticed even under the noses of the most skilled of Demon Slayers. He can freely walk about crowded towns without drawing even slightest suspicion despite his bizarre apparel.
* **Trusting:** Something in the tone of his voice, or perhaps because he dresses himself up as a symbol of good luck, makes anyone unaware of his true nature as a demon immediately trusting of him, willing to follow him anywhere or follow along with his plans.

## Relationships

Kyo, Upper Moon One - Friendly terms, sees her as an equal in terms of drive to grow stronger.

George Harlow Upper Moon Two - Enjoys discussing business and money with him, perplexed why he chooses to live as a human

The Artist, Upper Moon Three - Has a grudge against them for holding the 'Luckier' number, would happily fight for their position but 'luck' has guided him to not challenge them yet.

Aida Kemuri, Upper Moon Five - Even more perplexed about them living amongst humans and slayers of all things.

The Collector, Upper Moon Six - Still doesn't understand why living among humans as another human and not a lord, god, or other leader of some type. Will bring things for their collection in exchange for sen.

## Triva

* Juichi has petitioned several times to add a seventh member to the Upper Moons, or to simply skip over the Fourth position in favor of having an Upper Moon Seven.
* Juichi has removed the eye emblazoned with the kanji for Four several times but hasn't found a way to keep it from regenerating.
