Fighting Style:
Yomi fights with escape always at the back of his mind. He does not grapple or use holds as that would be counter to his goal, never being caught in a bind himself. He would rather cut through opponents quickly and running from one target to the next if he needs to, but escape is at the fore front of his thought when it comes to fight or flight. With his dual tails he always keeps one close to himself while using the other to attack with. The one he attacks with will be used to stab or slash at the opponent. The second is always kept at his body, used to deflect attacks with while running. When faced with a multitude of opponent, Yomi will not likely stick around for long periods in a fight.
Yomi is a running and slashing type of fighter, not one of brute force. He would prefer to cut down opponents quickly in order to slow them down rather than kill. And Yomi has been known to resort to cannibalism in order to survive in territories that he is not welcome, biting into opponents with his mask having his mouth uncovered and easily able to bite into his opponents with as he runs by. He also throws jibes and taunts during his fights in order to keep his opponent frustrated, allowing for them to make a mistake and allow him to deal a blow that either slows them down for him to run away or deals a deadly strike in order for him to feed upon them.
Backstory:
The story of Yomi Gremory is actually quite usual for most ghouls. It began like any other, with two ghouls who fell in love and decided not to fight the system but instead to subvert it and hide amongst the sheep. In doing so, they decided to have a child together, Yomi himself. He grew up in a home of love and understanding, knowing that Yomi would have needs that weren't like most children as these two lovebirds themselves grew up with. The answer to their hunger was to visit once a month to a crematorium and leave with a butcher's bag of nutrition. And Yomi grew up thinking that this was quite normal in his family, learning that they needed to hide this fact from an early age. And this worked for a long time as his family hid amongst the humans with normal activities. Yomi's favorite being fishing with his father on their boat.
One day, as they were fishing on their boat, Yomi learned an important lesson from his father. He told Yomi that the fish that lasts the longest is not the largest, the strongest that breaks the line, or the one who eats the most. It's the fish that swims the fastest and with the most guile and never bites the hook. This got Yomi thinking more about the ghouls he saw hunted on the news and how strong they seemed. Until their bodies were shown and their parts stripped from them to make those... weapons. It made Yomi's stomach slightly turn but his mother always assured him they would always be fine. But Yomi knew that some day the time might come when he would need to become that animal that would need to escape. And he would.
When Yomi's thirteenth birthday came around and he received his mask he asked for something peculiar. His kagune had manifested as two thin tails of black rinkaku with purple edging throughout, peeking out from the black. The mask he asked for was metallic silver and shining, looking in the shape of a fox with it's upturned nose. It also had, etched into the right side, a mischievous grin and a slight tongue poking out at the edge. The eyes looked like wide and upside down v's as if to accentuate the smile even more. Yomi would be the Sly Fox, the one who would slip away from the harm of the world. After receiving his mask he gained a reputation as a child who would taunt the mall cops and thugs alike, hiding and running through tight spaces and slipping just out of their grasp. He needed the practice afterall.
When Yomi turned 17 he focused more on school and fell from his social life. Studying and getting into a good school, getting a good job, and hiding his true nature from the world by doing this was his most important goal in his mind. He now had his younger sister, Kuriko, to look after as well as try and get his parents into a respectable retirement home that would also keep their secret. Atleast, that was the plan. Until everything changed. One summer evening, Yomi was returning from a trip with his friends, an enjoyment after a long cram period and finally getting their results back from the test that Yomi naturally aced. He decided for once to branch out and be social. When he returned home though, he cursed the thought immediately.
CCG officers were swarming his house, causing him to duck behind the bushes of the home, peeking at them as they searched through the rubble of walls and the destroyed front door. Yomi could see his mother's head on the lawn easily, but nothing else was left of her. One of the officers laughed as he tapped the side of her head with his left foot. "Well, looks like that new Quinque swallowed the rest of her up. Too bad. Never seen a Rinkaku quinque in action. We'll just have to see if the brat inside can be harvested." Yomi's eyes began to water as, as the officer spoke, two men dragged the lifeless body of his sister out of the home. And in handcuffs was his father. Yomi burned with rage as he understood what happened. His mother and sister fought and his father gave up.
After that day, Yomi remained on the run, always staying to himself and living in alleys. He never returned to school, knowing that he was now on a watch list. They would want his body to make those weapons too. But Yomi swore to himself he'd find a way to get into that facility where they held the coward of a father. And he'd rip him to shreds and take what he had. He'd avenge his mother and sister. And he'd never, ever be caught.
Kagune Traits:
Serrated |Free| (Minor) - A weapon with this Trait is serrated, and is able to inflict bleeding wounds on a target. When hit from this Kagune, a target suffers one C-Rank wound every post, for three posts.
Character Traits:
Agile Movement |Free| (Minor): Much like a parkour expert, this person can run along walls for short distances and dance or jump around obstacles with ease. This is due to long training by running from pursuers and can be quite useful when avoiding attacks.
Poise Mastery |Free| (Major): The ability to balance on even one toe, the user of this trait can glide and dance around attacks, avoiding most attacks with ease as long as they are in an open area. They can even find edges and poles to be as easy to walk upon as open fields. This increases the user's speed by one rank in an open range when dodging an attack by up to three attacks per two posts.
