Shinryu | Kai Jamah's Initial Persona

Persona Type: Initial Persona

Persona's Arcana: Magician

Owner: Kai Jamah

Persona Appearance: Shinryu stands at 6'8" towering over most people. The back of it's head is covered in a mane of white hairlike furs that seem to be constantly waving in waving in wind even when there is none. From the back of this mane extends a long lock of hair that seems to be coming from a pony tail buried in the mane it'self. Shinryu's face is covered by a grim steel mask. The upper half curves outward into a point, and is covered by glass under which two dots glow a pale blue light. It somewhat resembles the cockpit of a jet. The lower half is a steel plate, bent forward at a sharp angle, and separated by zigzagging teeth that resemble those of a bear trap's. Fire occasionally billows from this wicked maw.

Shinryu appears to be wearing somewhat traditional feudal era Japanese garb. Over it's body it wears a long, silk, black buttoned up shirt that extends a few inches over it's abdominal line, covering the waist of it's hakama. The buttons of this shirt start a few inches under the neck and are made of perfectly rounded steel. The haori is dark black with a white silk trim, and a golden chain himo. Covering each shoulder are two steel rectangular shoulder-pads that appear to be held in place by screw bolts at the base of the neck. The sleeves of the haori are wrapped around at the wrist, holding them loosely to the arm while they are bound by two thick steel bracers. Covering these bracers are 4 tubes that appear to be exhaust pipes, two for each bracer, that extend from the outward facing sides of the wrists. Shinryu's hands are covered by steel and leather gauntlets that end in sharp claws. The Hakama is patterned with white and black stripes, and bound at the waist by a leather belt with a steel buckle over the silk long-shirt. It's feet are covered in thick steel boots that extend up to the knees.

From Shinryu's back extend two large, steel, rectangular protrusions that house jet-like thrusters. Shinryu's clothes have holes cut into them to allow these thrusters space. The thrusters rise somewhat at the sides from which it's wings extend. Shinryu's wings resemble those of an airplanes. It has two primary wings, and two tertiary wings which sit under the primaries. When extended the primary rings raise to an upward angle, while the tertiary wings raise to a lower downward angle. The full wingspan of Shinryu's primary wings is 4 feet, and the wingspan of the tertiary wings is 3 feet.


Persona Background: Shinryu, the Spirit Dragon. It's heavenly appearance marked the coming of peace, as it's visage was a symbol of luck and tranquility. Shinryu would fly over the lands deemed fit by the heavens to receive aid, and it's majestic glow would bring energy and life to the people and land below. During one fateful Autumn the people of a small kingdom prayed to the gods for help. The lord of their land was a cruel and selfish tyrant, and the people who lived under him and his nobility were sucked dry of everything they had. Winter would come soon and the people were unsure of how many of them would be able to survive it's icy clutch with the minimal provisions they were allowed to keep for themselves. The heavens deemed that they would receive no aid, but Shinryu took great pity upon the people of the kingdom. Disobeying the powers that be, Shinryu flew from the heavens, paying no attention to the gates that locked behind him.

As Shinryu flew through the sky the people of the kingdom were given great hope, and became sure that they would prosper through the coming winter. However as Shinryu gave his majestic glow to the people, the Lord looked upon him with ambition in his eyes. He took it as a sign that Shinryu would grant him and his kingdom great prosperity, and in his haste commanded that his armies begin to march to other lands, for the Heavens were now on their side. The armies began to invade the neighboring kingdom, a place Shinryu had recently given his blessing. The soldiers of both kingdoms met on a great battlefield and began their war. Shinryu watched as man after man fell to the cold embrace of death at the hand of a red stained katana.

Shinryu, realizing that his arrogance caused a great calamity, flew to the heavens to beg them for aid. Upon reaching their gates however, the great dragon found that their gates would not open for him. Realizing the atrocities he committed, Shinryu fell from the sky resorting to one last effort that he hoped would bring peace to the land. Shinryu sliced his throat, killing himself, and letting his lifeless body fall to the land. The impact of his heavenly form against the earth created a massive explosion of white fire that washed over the battlefield. The soldiers were burned in it's warm glow, allowing them to find the peace of a swift and comforting death. The land was consecrated by the light, and a massive forest began to grow. On this land, no war would be fought. People from the surrounding kingdoms would gain bounty from it's trees, it's fruit, and it's fauna, and it's clean fresh water. Shinryu sacrificed his immortal life, but he brought an age of peace that would last for many years to come.

Fusion Attack:

Fusion Attack Name: Spirit Wind
Persona Name: Shinryu
Type of Damage: Fire
Description: Shinryu starts this move by flying high into the air. Once it reaches a substantial height, Kai slices into his neck with the Baron, but Shinryu is the one who receives a gash on it's neck. Fire erupts from Shinryu's wound, bathing over it as it falls to the earth. Upon crashing into the ground Shinryu explodes covering a large radius in a burst of white fire.

Human Skill Name: Dainamo
Persona Name: Shinryu
Tier: Tier 1
Cost: 7 SP
Type of Damage: Fire
Description: Kai thrusts his Baron into his breast over his heart and then twists it to the right. As he pulls it out of his chest the Baron is covered in a long wisp of fire that resembles the blade of a Wakizashi. This does not actually appear to damage Kai but it does seem to cause black blood to spew from the wound. For the next 3 turns the Baron deals fire damage.

The Magician Arcana has a 15% boost in fire abilities. Make sure to change that. As for your Human skill, know that your soulbound weapon won't deal both types of damage, but it will change to Fire for three turns. Also, describe specifically how long the length will grow for clarity's sake. That way it'll be known and no one will be confused. If it's increasing it by about a foot or two, then bump up the cost to 7 SP. Once that's done you're approved.

Changed passive boost to 15% increase in fire skills (forgot it was based on the users arcana and not the persona's)
Changed the SP cost of Dainamo, and specified the length increase as two extra feet.

Actually, either take off the fire element proportion or take off the fact that it is increasing in length, since you're doing two things at once for a Tier 1 skill, and that is actually too much. You can make the length increase a little more if you just want that, but not the fire elements as well. Then you're set.

Removed the length increase from Dainamo.

Approved.
