Natsu

## Appearance

Natsu is an average height for a male earthling, standing at 5 feet and 10 inches. He is middle-aged, and as such his hair, which is mostly black and usually pulled into a short ponytail, does have some graying portions. His skin is somewhat tanned, and there are various scars all over his body. His eyes are a shade of blue akin to that of a clear summer afternoon sky. The outfit he usually wears is a front-folded white shirt with the Four Seasons Dojo symbol on the front and the back, loose white pants held up by a neatly tied green sash, a single green wristband worn on his left arm, and plain black shoes.

## Personality

Natsu mostly keeps to himself, rarely speaking to anyone, including his own siblings. When spoken to, he will usually just reply with a subtle motion. That's not to say he never speaks, however, as he will if he gets worked up enough. The reason he rarely talks to anyone is unknown to his siblings, but they respect him for it nevertheless.

## Abilities

* Techniques
* Transformations
* Fusions
* Equipment

* Four Seasons Style - As one of the four masters of the Four Seasons Dojo, Natsu is exceptionally skilled with the associated martial arts style.
	+ Spring arts:
		- Flowering Cherry Fist - A decisive set of actions in which the user delivers swift blows to the knees, elbows, and/or shoulders of their opponent, then finishes with a single straight palm strike to the sternum. Despite the name of the technique, none of the motions involved require the user to close their hand into a fist.
		- Sprouting Blades - A series of 4 rising kicks executed with rotational momentum, followed by a single heel drop on the opponent's head.
		- Azure Gale - A technique in which the user rushes towards their opponent at full speed, throws them into the air or over their shoulder, then jumps up and unleashes a powerful downwards kick while the opponent is still in the air, or on their back if thrown over the shoulder.
	+ Summer arts:
		- Hurricane Toss - A technique intended to counter a punch. When an opponent swings their fist, the user catches them by the wrist with both hands, then tosses the opponent forward with a twisting action, creating a disorienting spinning motion while they're off the ground.
		- Rising Heat Wave - A technique intended to counter a kick. When an opponent raises their leg in an attempt to strike, the user uses their own leg to grapple that of the opponent's as hard as possible, then pulls towards themself in an attempt to make the opponent fall over.
		- Vermillion Claw - A technique intended to counter close-range weaponry such as swords, spears, etc. When an opponent makes an attack with such a weapon, the user performs a kick high enough to knock the weapon out of the opponent's hands; they then proceed to catch the weapon and use whatever blunt side it might have to render their opponent unconscious.
		- Solstice: Warm Front - The ultimate Summer technique. Natsu takes up a stance said to be capable of countering any and all attacks, even ki-based attacks.
	+ Autumn arts:
		- Bending Maple - An evasion technique where the user roots themself to one spot and relies on the flexibility of their upper body in order to avoid incoming attacks without moving from where they stand.
		- Harvest Moon - A technique in which the user can turn the environment into an advantage. After dodging their opponent, the user grabs the opponent by the shoulders and pulls them to the ground, then holds them down for as long as possible in an attempt to wear them out.
		- White Shrouded Sky - The counterpart to the Black Starless Sky technique of the Winter arts. The user loosens up their joints as much as possible in order to evade their opponent with ease.
	+ Winter arts:
		- Stalwart Evergreen - The most basic defensive technique taught as part of the Winter arts. The user stands with their prominent foot forward while their other leg braces backwards, and they align their arms vertically to shield both their face and torso.
		- Snow Drift - A technique which uses defense as offense by the user first rushing towards an opponent, then locking their joints in order to essentially become a human boulder.
		- Black Starless Sky - The counterpart to the White Shrouded Sky technique of the Autumn arts. The user stiffens their palms as much as possible and uses their bare hands to block the swing of a weapon. This technique is seen as particularly difficult to master due to the inherent danger it poses to the user's hands.
* Swordsmanship - Natsu possesses incredible talent with a sword, although when or where he learned how to use one is unknown.

- Natsu has no transformations so far.

- Natsu has not performed any fusions so far.

- *Suzaku* - A medium-length curved sword with a single edge. There is a large piece missing from the non-edged side of the blade.

## Relationships

* Family
* Friends/Allies
* Enemies

* Haru - Natsu gets along well with his older sister, even though they don't talk to each other often.
* Aki - Natsu does his best to avoid interacting with Aki, due to her unpleasant personality. Aki understands this much, but she still finds it somewhat frustrating that he refuses to speak most of the time.
* Fuyu - Natsu likes listening to his younger brother talk about his interests, and likewise Fuyu appreciates Natsu's ability to just sit and listen for hours on end.

## Trivia

* Natsu's name means "summer" in Japanese, which suits the naming theme of his siblings.
