Charcters approved? (Raziel and Sakume)

Name: Raziel Leonidas Oscuridad

Age: 26 years old/ ?

Race: A werewolf with slight Spanish origins.

Relatives:

Father *Raziel Sr.*- Alive, currently living in a cabin taking care of his daughter's wounds from the ball incident.

Mother *Serenity*- Whereabouts unknown, considered to be dead.

Older Sister *Yosuke*- Killed by Sakume a few years back.

Sex: Male

Hair: Dark brown, but he always keeps it dyed a dark blue. Normally, it reaches just a bit past his shoulders. / Pure White and/or silvery color in White Knight mode. It lengthens a few inches when he shifts forms.

Eyes: Dark brown/ Icy blue in White Knight mode.

Weight: About 190 to 200 pounds. Muscular, but not so you can see. When he is a werewolf, he's much more defined.

Height: About 6'0 as a human, 6'1 as the White Knight and 6'3 as a lycan.

Weapon:

Increased Senses Raziel naturally has higher senses of smell, sight, and hearing. He can see in the darkness, though it is not crystal clear.

Full Wolf form Raziel can shift inbetween a wolf and a human at will now, thanks to the pearl giving him added strength. He has gained enough concentration to retain the form as long as he pleases, even if it is not a full moon. He also no longer goes insane when transforming as he did when he was still immature. He is a graceful wolf, interpreted from wild wolves immediately as an alpha, or leader, of the pack. He is strong and loyal as a canine would be, a tuft of blue fur dotting his otherwise completely gray coat. When he returns to human form, he does not have clothes on, so he tends to keep this form as long as needed in order to keep from being embarrassed.

Werewolf Form When it is a full moon, he gains a human-like appearance, but with his claws, that are 3-4 inches in length. His teeth grow into fangs and canines of about 2-3 inches. His pupils become too dark to see, almost entirely black. He is covered in a massive spurt of gray fur, with one tuft of dark blue on the forehead. This form, unlike his wolf form, is more grotesque to most people, and although it is much more battle-oriented, it is not meant for speed. He is a commendable force, but he cannot give chase or flee easily. However, Raziel would most likely just shift if needed to give him speed as a normal wolf.

Twin Daggers Currently, due to a battle with Chronos, the Dark Eye, Raziel's daggers are no longer useable, now simply handles.

Wolf Pack :Raziel can call upon wolves to help him in battle, but sometimes they may not answer, depending on the severity of his need and if he's near forest or not. He does not like calling for help from them since he's slightly frightened of wolves and doesn't like them.

Rose : Raziel received a magical rose from his teacher, Chronos, that allows him to be calmed in the midst of battle, soothing his anxiety and causing him to essentially lose that weakness. Besides this, when the thorns press against his flesh, it permits a new view of his environment, the effects depending on the situation. Examples may include the ability to see through walls, zoom in on things from a distance, or sense heat. It never wilts, and only works for him. He loves the scent of his rose, and it has enhanced his sense of smell effectively.

*Strictly prohibited to White Knight mode*

Sword of Atlantis : A sword, carefully decorated in an cryptic message going up the sharpened metal. The components of the metal are nothing any human has ever known. The hilt of the weapon is formed in a coral-like substance, hard, sharp and poisonous to anyone else's touch but an Atlantean, especially if it cuts the skin. The weapon is approximately two and a half feet in length, and quite skinny. The origin of this weapon is currently unknown.

If worse comes to worse, he resorts to physical strength. He's a distance fighter in his human form, but very close-up oriented as a werewolf and as the White Knight. Unfortunately, Raziel has yet to be able to stand much attacking in his White Knight mode, and is very vulnerable once reverted to it, although it can take a lot of damage compared to his normal ability of withstanding.

Armor: In White Knight mode, it's a fabric that is not easily pierced, formed from dried octopus stretched over a sea turtle shell. This covers his entire torso. In normal form, it's a simple chain mail under his tunic. It's made of a silvery metal, something he forged himself. Not a professional work, as he's only experienced with wood.

Strengths: The higher senses of a wolf, and his precision with throwing weapons. His heart is strong, and pulls him through many scrapes. He's also very fast and agile. He's got an entirely high tolerance for taking a beating.

In the woods, he is naturally comfortable in his natural surroundings, and seems to be able to dodge much better in the shadowed parts of the forest. He knows much about fighting techniques and is able to predict things fairly easily. He's also very resilient and not easy to kill.

Lucien is favorable of the sea, however, and he hates land of all types. He has a strange talent or two; he can walk on water as if it were land and he can also breathe underwater with no difficulties.

Weakness: He hates wolves, although he is one. Much of his past is weakening to him as he dwells on it. Lovers also pain him inside, for he hasn't seen his in so long and feels as though he was never meant for anyone. He goes out of his way to help others, especially those he loves, even if it means hurting himself. He is sometimes foolish and holds back in battle, since he doesn't like to hurt anyone.

Lucien despises land. Also, he is weakened because of the pearl. If the pearl were to be taken from Raziel's neck, both of them would begin to die, since they are forged together, and therefore, must be a pair. If it breaks somehow, they will both die immediately.

Spells/Magic: *Only available in White Knight mode*

Holy Magic Star Burst : He can form bursts of holy white magic. It may look as a flame or a simple flash of light. This magic is altered in several ways depending on his choice. A basic form of magic available with the transformation.

Tsunami Strike : This attack can only be used when Lucien is near a great body of water, something like a lake or the ocean. He chants an old charm and controls the water with his hands, forcing a single massive wave to plunge down upon the foe. He can also take water from other places and bring it to himself, although he doesn't like to do this as it means consequences. He also wraps water around his sword sometimes.

Withdraw Lucien can either disappear himself into any form of water, use any form of water around him, or take water from somewhere, even if that includes the human body. He can take all the water from it, killing a person. However, he would never do this, as his conscience wouldn't allow it.

Appearance: Raziel wears a simple blue tunic with, and brown leather gloves that come to his elbows., though he sometimes doesn't wear these since he no longer needs them. He has a clear face, and is handsome, in a rugged, sarcastic way. He has a long, dark blue cape dragging out behind him all the time. For some reason, he strikes people as the traveler that has many stories to share.

He has chocolate brown eyes that show a strong capability for love, but it's masked behind anger and sadness. His hair falls to his shoulders, messed up most of the time. It is almost never the original dark brown color, but dark blue. He carries around a ring that always stays on his index finger and also a metal cross around his neck, since his family was raised in a Catholic upbringing. One may be confused at first by his semi-innocent/curious attitude. His feet don normal boots, stained with mud from many years of traveling.

Once in White Knight mode, Raziel's colors shift from blue to white, enveloping not just his clothing, but his weapons as well. He becomes a completely different person altogether. His eyes become a light, icy blue color, his hair an ebony white color, taller and wiser, but losing much of his original personality.

Personality: He is rash in battle, especially if it's near a full moon. In his werewolf form, he pushes to win constantly, even if it seems impossible. He can be smart if he takes his time in battle. Because of his "accident" he is the most powerful on a night with a full moon.

Raziel enjoys fishing, something little-known about his personality. He has a knack for catching any sort of fish and knows much about the different kinds. Lucien likes this, because he gets to be near the ocean. Raziel also tends to excell in anything having to do with building things, or carving wood. Because his father happened to be a carpenter, Raziel took on much of the traits and is known as an excellent worker when it comes to houses and other things comprised of wood. He can also forge things as a blacksmith, but only due to the tutulage of Lucien. The werewolf doesn't know why Lucien knows about it.

Raziel also happens to know how to play the guitar proficiently, and it's one of his favorite instruments. He had planned for himself and his sister to become a team with her singing and dancing while he played, but that dream never came to be... she sang beautifully, and together, they produced a unique, perfect harmony, even as children.

There's no way he will just run straight into a battle, unless they person or thing threatens him or someone else. He's more of a peaceful type, and because of his speed and agility, not many opponents can hit him straight away. He's not very social, because he doesn't know how to be. He gets close to people, but it takes a while before he will actually open up. Slightly shy, especially around girls, Raziel cannot seem to get over his embarassment, though there's nothing to be afraid of, he knows. Women adore him for some reason, and currently, he has several that seem to have their future planned, including Sangre the vampire, Mariya the rune-user, Sara his friend and company in adventures, and a few more. Raziel, however; has only one he may end up with...

White Knight *Lucien*: He's very quiet and solemn, usually pessimistic. He doesn't understand much of the world. Naive and calm, the White Knight remembers very little about his previous life. He tends to argue with Raziel and visa-versa while they battle for control of his body. He's literally thousands of years old, but appears to be in his early twenties, just like Raziel. He is of royal blood, the prince of the Lost City, but he does tell others this.

Biography: When Raziel was six years old, he came back from getting firewood as was his daily job, and as he approached home, his father yelled for him to get down. Wolves surrounded them. His father was dragged off into the forest and his mother was torn apart in front of his eyes. His last command was to protect his two younger sisters, which he does with great seriousness.

Now, every full moon, he and his sister who were both bitten by the cursed animal are transformed into werewolves, though he can assume wolf form whenever he wishes. He grew up as normally as possible, secluded from society, fearing for his family's safety. The years passed, until one day, on his twelfth birthday, his sister Sakume tried to kill him out of anger. She claimed he had done nothing to stop their parents from dying. This was not true, but she continued to try and kill him. He left the next day, and wandered the land, trying to stay away from his sister who wants to kill him.

Not too long ago, he met a young woman named Lorelei. She made strange new feelings spring up inside him. He traveled with her for a long time of nearly a year, having many adventures, and finally finding out who it was that killed her family. Lorelei had been traveling to find the being and kill them to justify their actions. Raziel realized the horrible truth after a few months. He had killed them. Even though she forgave him, he eventually left her, giving her a ring matching his, afraid that he would hurt her if he were to stay...his goal is to grow strong enough to protect the ones he loves so he'll never hurt one like Lorelei again. He still loves her with all his heart and thinks of her often.

Raziel heard rumors about a magical pearl, and it peeked his interest since he knew no one would be stupid enough to try and find it. Except for him, that is.

White Knight Short Bio:

"Lucien!" The yell boomed out among the cracked pillars, the brown-haired man groaning from the wound in his chest. "Lucien! We need you now!"

He burst through the collapsing wall, grabbing the man under one arm and dragging him out, bleeding from the forehead. "I'm here, Crionis! I'm here! This is all my fault!" He held his father's head soldier close, glancing at his world literally crumbling around him.

"Lucien, it's going to collapse! You have to do something! You must live! Live and wait! Then return! Remember the spell? The one we learned together? You can return to Atlantis within some time and revive me, and the others!"

He nodded, holding his dying friend close. "But... I can't survive this! The whole palace, all of Atlantis is going to fall!"

"Then it's up to you!" Lucien felt a hand touch his forehead and he looked into Crionis's eyes. "You have to perform that spell! Combine with someone in the future, and return! You can bring anyone back... Even me." After a short nod, Lucien, the Prince of Atlantis, whispered the last words he would hear for thousands of years.

His body disappeared, and he released a final breath, resting inside the sparkling pearl that thudded to the floor of the ruined city. He would wait... Soon, someone would find him. The first to touch the pearl would be the one he shared the body with. He would set right what he had done wrong. The White Knight would rise again.

Appearance for Raziel and Sakume in picture form: *made by HitokiriChibi, amazingly helpful*

Name: Sakume Marie Oscuridad

Age: 23

Race: A werewolf with slight Spanish origins.

Sex: Female.

Hair: Long, dark brown locks that fall to her lower back, smooth and silky.

Eyes: Dark brown, almost black.

Weight: 140 pounds. She's very slim.

Height: 5'6 as a human, 5'9 as a Werewolf.

Weapon:

Claw of the Wolf She has two long, handle-like things that she carries around on her back. When pressed, they release three long blades that look like claws. A right amount of pressure must be applied. She then grabs these and uses them like long claws that come out of her knuckles...they are sharp enough to cut through stone. They are formed from a mix of a silver and iron alloy, but breakable. She uses the silver to face her fears.

Full Wolf form Sakume can shift inbetween a wolf and a human at will now, thanks to Shinu's powers given by her bite. She has a limited time to retain in it, even if it is not a full moon. She is a beautiful creature when a wolf, a brown coat of smooth fur covering her. She is ten times as agile when as a wolf. Even her howl reflects her, as it's calm and melodious just like her voice as a human.

Werewolf Form When it is a full moon, she gains a human-like appearance, but with her claws, that are 1-2 inches in length. Her teeth grow into fangs and canines of about 1-2 inches. She is covered in a massive spurt of brown fur. This form, unlike his wolf form, is more grotesque to most people.


Armor: Nothing but the clothes on her skin.

Strengths: She is very attractive to most men, and may try to use this to her advantage, most of the time without knowing it. She watches her back more around men that women. Anyone who gets in her way is in for a fight. She is skilled with her blades, and is agile and quick like her brother. In her werewolf form, she becomes even faster, and she is always entirely close ranged in her fighting skills. Compared to her brother, she is weaker, but faster because of her weight and sex.

Weakness: She is much too rash, and attacks almost relentlessly. She will do almost anything to win, even if it means hurting others or herself. She wants what she wants, and she is going to get it. She doesn't judge her opponents closely. Although she wouldn't admit it, she's very taken in by any sweet words or gestures towards her, a romanticist and sweet at heart. She would never let anyone know, but she longs for a true love and a happy ending.

She also finds herself weakened by light or holy magic thanks to her bond with shadow.

Skills/Magic:

*Wolf Call*- She can call upon wolves to aid her in battle, the number depending on their location, if it will work or not.

*Darkness Bind*- She can cause somewhat of a sinkhole, bending darkness to her will to sink her opponents into the ground. They are unable to escape unless she loses her concentration. This is easy to do, however, with the proper motivation. She is also extremely vulnerable to holy magic or light magic of any kind. She can also use it in other ways, to meld herself into darkness.

Appearance: She normally wears a long, clawed up pair of pants, and a partially torn shirt. Much of her clothing actually comes from animals in the forest, albeit she has sworn never to wear wolf fur. Her boots are just her size, and make it impossible for people to hear her. She has a frown on her face almost always; it is very rare to see her smile.

She also has gloves on, but no one would know who she is or that she is related to Raziel. (Part of the reason he dyes his hair) She wears her hair down almost constantly, and it is always smooth and shiny for some reason, though ratted up. Her complextion is flawless, but her skin is paler than usual most of the time. She sometimes will be found inflicting pain upon herself, but she seems to think it makes a person stronger.

Personality: She is too quick to attack. She strikes hard and fast, always moving and jumping around. She uses the enviroment around her to her advantage. Using her "claws" to climb trees is very common for her. She is very quiet, and sad. She does not like to consider herself wrong in anything, for that may rise the possibility that she murdered her own sister, which she refuses to believe despite its' truth.

She actually secretly likes cheery things, though she doesn't exibit it by her looks or expressions. Sakume has an excellent voice, but hardly uses it for her dislike of people smiling as they hear. Her dancing also soars higher than most's talents. Her brother and her were supposed to form a traveling team together, but it wasn't meant to be...

Theme Song: Number One

Biography: Sakume's life was saved by Raziel, her brother, when she was three. She tried to kill him when she was nine by drowning him, and she almost suceeded. She has killed her other sister, Yosuke, who went into hiding after Raziel's almost successful murder, but to no avail of appeasing the demons inside her. She was on the hunt for Raziel, although she was starting to doubt herself just a bit in her heart if he really was responsible for the death of her parents.

Her goal wass to kill him and anyone who gets in her way. Inside, she really also wanted to know what her purpose is, and felt somewhat depressed by the fact that he said he loved her, even after what she did to him.

Recently, she met a demon called Kowai Shinu (The Terror of Death), and he convinced her to make him her mate and bear his children, although she is still fighting it. This event means a great deal to her, because of her secret longings has to do with finding someone she can truly love. He gave her the gift of wielding a small amount of darkness, and she is now trying to learn how to use it properly.

After a great shock of finding her father alive, Sakume's beliefs and way of life was hit hard. She decided that, even though she still hates her brother, she will no longer hunt him. Instead, she will start to focus more on her own needs than ever, including her need for a mate...
