Silva

**Silva** (シルバ, *Shiruba*?) is a main character in the fan-made series **Universal Warriors**, and the fictional character from the anime and manga series of **Shaman King**.

Silva is the member of **Patch Tribe**. He is the Patch officiant responsible for overlooking **Yoh Asakura**, **"Wooden Sword" Ryu** and—after **Chrom's** death—**Tao Ren** as well. Unlike most of the Patch Priests who just oversee the fights, to make sure they are following the rules, Silva believes that the Patch Priests should intervene more in the fights, to avoid the massive death count fights leads to.

He has forms Team Rebecca together with Rebecca and Horohoro.

## Personality

Silva is a calm person. During his first qualification match with Yoh, he appears quite supportive of Yoh, constantly remarking at his strength and hinting at what he should do first. He believes the Shaman King should be an intuitive and flexible person capable of getting ideas in an instant and out of nothing. However, he has his own way of dealing with the Shaman Fight, saying that the Ten Officiant Priests should interfere more and prevent the blood spatter that is apparently "**The Will of the Great Spirit**".

He has also made himself good friends with Kalim, the official responsible for Horohoro, and even is a roommate together with him during the Shaman Fights in Tokyo City.

After trying to steal the four remaining Grand Elemental Spirits, he is captured and brainwashed using the Patch Song. Because of this, he becomes crueler like and does not hesitate to kill anyone.

## Character Design

Silva is a tall and muscular man with long black hair that is braided into two large bangs on each side of his face. Like all the other members of the Patch Tribe, he wears a Native American cloak with a red headband. The headband has two large feathers on the side and a white pattern. Like many other Patch Priests, he wears a silver plate on his chest, resembling an eagle, a reference to one of his guardian ghosts, Silver Wing.

He has five silver rings on his right hand, each shaped like one of his five totem ghosts, thus allowing him to materialize them on his hands, and in a leather sheath on his right leg he carries a handcrafted knife, used as a medium for his O.S. Totem Pole Cannon.

When not working as a Patch Priest, he wears a leather shirt and sunglasses and his hair completely pulled back and tied in a ponytail style.

His battle clothing consists of angle long black pants, and a blue top shirt tied together with strings in a cross pattern across his chest. Around his waist is a sash styled in the same way as his headband that holds a small silver scarf that is placed horizontally down his legs. Also attached to the sash are two brown leather straps, the right holding the sheath for his knife. His shoes consist of black cloth with a silver plating all the way around. He wears bracelets on his wrists used to hold the mediums for two of his spirits.

## Abilities and Equipment

Silva has trained with the Patch Tribe for a long time and is, therefore, a strong shaman with enough Furyoku to materialize five nature spirits at the same time. At the end of the tournament when Yoh and the others invade the Plants, Silva appears and stops them on their way. During this time he reveals an enormous strength, having materialized his five totems on a higher plane and making them fairly even stronger. It was later revealed by Bron that they had "taught" him the true way of the Patch and that his devotion is what had made him stronger. Later on, Bron also revealed that his powers also come from the Patch Song, which gives more Furyoku and also focuses the mind.

### Powers and Abilities

* **White Sword Soul**: He possesses one of the most common soul colors,

#### Skills

* **Piloting Skills**: He has excellent pilot skills that I can't think of as a Shaman. Also, you can control while mastering Furyoku.
* **Enhanced Strength**:
* **Enhanced Speed**:
* **Immense Durability**:
* **Hardening**:
* **Awakened power**:

### Equipment

* O.S. Totem Pole Cannon

* **Totemic Soul Blast:** By charging his Totem Pole Cannon with Furyoku, The head of Silver Wing opens its mouth and gather energy inside of it. When enough energy is charged it fires a strong ball of concentrated Furyoku at the opponent. In the anime it is revealed that the power of this attack depends on how much Furyoku is used. This attack was first seen used against Yoh, in his qualification match.

* **Totemic Soul Blast, Shot at Close Range**: A variation on the original Totemic Soul Blast, that is a testament to Silva's newly gained powers and fighting spirit, using O.S. Totem Pole Cannon V.2. It still fires a super dense spiritual energy shot but it is instead shot directly into an opponent at point-blank range. Unlike its predecessor it requires little to no charging time, while still regaining an extremely powerful blast. It has the power to easily shatter an armor Over Soul in a single hit. So far this attack has only been used against Yoh, in their fight in the Glacier Plant.

#### Spirits

*See More:* Silver Arms
Silva has five guardian ghosts in total, who are luminous totems. They were originally five animal spirits that have trained and refined themselves for over five-hundred-years ago eventually becoming nature spirits.

* **Silver Horn** - An American Bison spirit. He rarely talks and stutters a lot.
* **Silver Rod** - A snake spirit. In the anime series, it is revealed she is a female.
* **Silver Shield** - A turtle spirit. He is often seen talking reason.
* **Silver Tail** - A coyote spirit. He usually just agrees with the other spirits.
* **Silver Wing** - An eagle spirit. Appears rather arrogant. Says that human spirits cannot form an Over Soul because of their large ego.

The five animal spirits can become mechanical and combine to form a totem pole. This totem pole can then change into a cannon that can fire a ball of concentrated Furyoku.

The Spirits are usually seen gathered around or on Silva discussing things. When Silva is to oversee a match they appear very analytic.

* **O.S. Totem Pole Cannon** (, "O.S. "Totem Pole Hou""): The Silva Arms are also capable of a special O.S. formation called "Totem Pole Cannon". However this formation is rarely used because of its considerable Furyoku consumption. This Over Soul is a totem pole composed of Silva's five spirits combining into a totem pole and then transforming into a cannon.

* **Spiritual Fusion** (**Shousai Gattai, Spiritual Integration** in the English anime): By dissolving his original Over Soul Silva makes his five spirits take the form of totem pole, standing upon one another with Silver Horn in the bottom Silver Tail standing on Silver Horn, Silver Shield attaching itself to the side of Silver Tail, Silver Rod wrapping itself around Silver Horn and Silver Tail, and Silver Wing resting on the body of Silver Rod. The five Silva Arms, then transform into mechanical components assembling into a powerful cannon, which fires the energy of all five spirits at once. This technique is basically just Hyōi-Gattai but instead of fusing his body with the spirits he fuse his spirits all together.

* **Silver Shield**: Silva's turtle totem transforms into a mechanical version of its shield and attaches to the side of the barrel and works as a scope.

* **Silver Tail**: Silva's coyote totem transforms into the mechanical barrel with its face on the bottom and attaches itself to Silver Horn

* **Silver Wing**: Silva's eagle totem transform into a barrel with an eagle head and wings on the neck. It attaches itself to Silver Tail and becomes the head of the cannon. It is the only one of the five spirits who can talk while in this formation.

* **Silver Horn**: Silva's buffalo totem remains approximately the same becoming the foundation of the cannon.

* **Silver Rod**: Silva's snake totem becomes mechanical and attaches to the top of the cannon connection all the other four parts
