Arashi (TBT)

By ThePain99.

Arashi is a bright yellow coloured stickman who possesses the element of light. He put himself in the tournament as the sixth contender in the Blessed Tournament.

### Etymology

Arashi (あらし or 嵐) means storm of tempest. This could mean two things: He created and organized the Blessed Tournament, which almost led to a doomsday of sorts, in which, he started this, so he is the storm after the calm. Another meaning is thunderstorm, in which thunder can relate to the element of light.

## Biography

Born into the family of the priest of the cult group known as Overseer, he was the next-in line priest, but he tended to reject his duties often, and became known in school as a troublemaker. One day, Arashi's whole family was nowhere to be found, only Arashi remained. Arashi became the priest at a young age, and carried out sermons in quick succession despite having little to no knowledge of being priest. Arashi was known as a positive person, quick to reassure people, and was known for de-escalating even the most ferocious of fights. He was a renowned fighter as well. When he became a high enough ranking member in overseer, he bought a colosseum and began organizing a tournament, and secretly got the king of Arter, Kage, to sponsor the tournament.

### The Blessed Tournament

Arashi employed himself as the judge of the competition, but then later became the sixth contender in the tournament. He asked every contender for their element and why they came here, and saw an outcome that was earth-shatteringly destructive. In bracket A4, he went up against Akuma, and noted his pitch-black eyes as being strange. Arashi defeated Akuma without too much difficulty, partly due to Akuma not wanting to reveal his demonic nature so early into the tournament. In bracket C2, he quickly figured that Jikan was out for blood, so he admitted loss and let Jikan continue, which was a problem for him due to Jikan being a strong contender, and might ruin his plans.

After the bracket A34, Kessho steps into the organizer's room to confront Arashi about there being demons in the tournament. Arashi knew he would lose, so he tried to de-escalate the situation, to which he half-succeeded. Later on, in the final bracket G, Arashi would be met with the group of Kessho, Jikan, Saigai, Kemuri and Kurai. However, his plan was already in motion, to which Jikan suggests that Arashi fix his own mess. Arashi then starts to attack the Clarity, to no result. Arashi is seen stranded on a piece of land until Shio tries to save him, only to be shot down by the cold King Kage, to which Shio drops Arashi. Arashi then falls to his doom, into the volcanic pit.

## Personality

At his core, Arashi is a master manipulator, and cold-blooded. He knows how to utilize the best of people and emotionally manipulates his way to his high ranking in Overseer. He seems to have a bizarre obsession about the end of the world, which was the entire reason for the tournament's creation. He is usually polite to seem friendly to the contenders of the tournament.

## Abilities

### Light Physiology

Arashi is constantly a bright, glowing yellow. This is due to his body being covered by a layer of light.

### Light Constructs

Arashi can create functional weaponry made of light. The effectiveness of the weapons differ depending on how much light it is being exposed to.

## Relations

### Jikan

Arashi sees Jikan as an obstacle to his plans to bring doomsday, but conceals this, and continues to act in his usual, polite demeanor.

### Kage

Kage and Arashi have an uneasy alliance, which breaks apart in the final bracket. Kage, now aware of Arashi's true motive, prevents Shio from saving him. Kage expresses disdain for Arashi, while Arashi is only using Kage to bring a sense of trustworthiness to his tournament.
