Name:Taichiji
Age: Is currently begining his first job so approximately 18 or 19.
Bio: (I take it this is explanation of probable changes in character appearance as well as update in life thus far lol?.. This SHALL be interesting!!) Current appearance: He's tidied up somewhat. His hair, though still blonde with tight curls is shorter than originally in the film. He's traded in the 'coke bottles' for a pair of proffesional-looking glasses which better shape to his eyes. Though he works as an electrician, it seems he's almost better suited for political debates in his proffesional dress with blue jacket, dress shirt and tie.
Children seem to look up to 'Tai' these days; a great change from when he was a lackey under Noshiga. He's worked on small lighting,electric tasks and even created interesting small toys for children in his spare time. They had infact gone as far as to call him a 'Good Magician of Light'; a title which he defineitely deserves. And though he does indeed deserve such a title, (only from the younger genterations though mind you, in the adult world he's recently become aquainted with thoguh, he's more of a blundering novice tinkering with toys and lights then any great sorcerror) he also fear this title as well. This will be explained far more indepth in his personality file.
Personality: Taichiji's personality has been humbled some since the days of his youth, bullying others under Noshiga's ruling and just all around causing mischife. He is a rather kind and generous individual now; though when it comes to his actual working job as an electrician, he can still tend to seem rather like a novice which tends to get other people he works with on his case.
NOTE: Because of an incident of having taken part in 'O-Tokoyo' When he was younger, he can be rather frigthened and irrational if memmories of this incident and his and another younger girls (at that time) escape from that wretched horrorland. He also has a lasting burn scars from when he was pulled out from the light post where the still red hot cables lashed back at him, though fortunately, his 'uniform' usually covers these.
Unfortunately... his latest job has his flat out frightened. His employer has asked asked he go back to the tower. Thoguh he isn't seeming to play the game, he doesn't wish to see any more people end up in the same fate he almost did before. That, and he still has a horrible haunting feeling about him that even though he's on the job, he still may be vulnerable to danger in this 'demon's city'.
Weapon(s): Electricians tool box (on the job!! lol.. suprise! o.o) including, hehe.. wire cutters, also electricians volt tester, etc. the basic nessecities for on the job work.
Abilitie(s): Nothing much. just street fighting skils he still has since he was a child and his knowledge of electrical gadgets and what not, which.. may or may not aid him in this case, but one never can tell ^_~.

Application:
Name: Inmu and Yanku
Age: 19
Bio: Twin boys with a dark past. They were orphaned at a young age and have spent most of their lives detecting, running from, and defending themselves against enemy soldiers and others who want to hurt them. Due to this they have developed keen senses, become fast runners and, in the event they can not run, are comfortable with fighting back, violently and without regret.
Currently they have become stronger, faster and better warriors. They still retain their long hair and general style of dress. They work as mercenaries for those willing to pay them and still wear their fox masks to hide their identities.
Personality: Calm and silent. They tend to communicate with each other through looks more than words, although they will speak when needed. They would rather spend time with each other more than others although, like speaking, they will interact with other people when needed. They can be quite kind if you manage to get on their good sides.
They become uneasy when the light’s flicker or blow out and sometimes suffer from nightmares. They also don’t like being apart.
How They Escaped: Once Yaimao’s final(?) scream shocked them into consciousness, the twins proceeded to slowly and painfully free each other from the tower’s cables. They made their escape during an Otokoyo game run by the possessed Hikora.
Why They've Returned: They’ve been hired to find a young girl who disappeared a few month’s ago. Her rich father, who is certain that his daughter is dead (she is, no OCs here), wants the twins to find her body and bring it home so that the family may bury her properly. He also wants them to find her killers and dispose of them if possible. The only clue to the girl’s possible whereabouts is that: the day before she disappeared she was carrying around a fox mask.
Weapons: Sword (Inmu) and Bow (Yanku)
Abilities: Good senses, fast runners and violent warriors.

Taichiji wasn't exactly ready if an encounter with a demon sprung upon them early, so he panicked and waited to see first what or whom was comming. Inmu and Yanku had decided to be the first line of defense, a wise decision in this case. The most useful thing that he had on him at the moment was a zippo lighter he always carried with him in his back pocket for the occasional 'blunt'. Only that, a hacksaw and a measuring tape for long-range cover. But just in case, he instinctively took out his zippo, seeing as they had a little distance between them, but not by much.

A few children, three boys and a girl, stepped out of the darken entrance way. They were all wearing o-men masks and talking amongst themselves.
The twins lowered their weapons, but only relaxed slightly. Something didn't feel right. If the hiders were arriving then where was...?
A child's arms suddenly slinked around Taichiji's neck from behind, a small hand touching the front of his throat where the tower's main wire had been jammed into his neck.
"Who will play hide and seek with me?" The young child's voice singsonged softly into Taichiji's ear.

At the contact of the hands, Taichiji 'screamed like a girl' and unintentionally set off his Zippo holding it for a moment while brandishing it about and trying to see what had got him untill it burnt his hand and he dropped it.
"IT'S GOT ME!!! GET THEM OFF ME!!!"

Yanku redirected his aim and Inmu rushed forward to help Taichiji but then the child giggled and tightened it's hold around Taichiji's throat threateningly. The twins stopped.
"Don't scream like that, Taichiji," the child whispered softly. "You'll upset the others."

'W..who are you..... What do you want?...' He stammered looking around still trying to find who the voice and body belonged to.

The child giggled again.
"I'm 'Oni'." the child said, and then it sighed, "You cheated the last time we played. The ones who are caught are meant to stay caught, and yet you ran away from me. I don't like cheaters. Although I suppose we can play again as long as you promise not to misbehave."

'Ran away... I did.. but, tell me something, as I'm not the one who is here to play. I'm.. on business persay...' He gulped for air. 'Two things' oni', of the first.. please.. lessen your grip as so i can ask the second.. which might be more perssing a matter for you...' Taichiji began to feel his air supply running low.

For a moment the possessed child was silent and then it suddenly loosen it's grip.
"Speak of this matter." Oshira-sama commanded quietly, it's manner completely different then when it was pretending to be a child.

Taichiji gasped for air for a moment and when his breath caught up with him once more. "It's more a question to be honest. Something makes me wonder,' He stopped himself for a moment. Was it truely wise to ask a kitsune something like this where his life was on the line? He sighed a bit and picked up whatever courage he had left. 'The first time I was here. Something told me you were agry inside for some reason. Did something happen to you in the past.. to drive you to all of this? Someone you miss perhaps?'

Oshira-sama stared at Taichiji with it's borrowed body for another moment before it spoke.
"Long ago," it said, "This place was a forest, a field, a temple. It was our home but then the city was built on top of it with its lights and tower. We weren't angry though. We liked the lights, the people, but then the city began to grow dark. At first, it wasn't to horrible but then more and more lights went out. The people began to leave and we were left alone.
We must keep the lights on. If they fully go out then they will never come back on and we will be left in the dark. That is why we play Otokoyo. To keep the city lit."
Slowly, Yanku raised his bow and Inmu reached out for Taichiji. As sad as the kitsune's story was, the twins did not like Taichiji standing so close to it.

Taichiji was sorry he had asked as he felt himself yanked away from the kitsune. So, that was it then.
"ok.' He said at last. "I suppose I have a bit of time for games. And it's not likely my boss thinks I'll come out of here alive at any rate, so they probably won't expect me back at any time soon either. Well,' He looked to the kids and the other two adults.

Inmu pulled Taichiji close him, backing them both away from the kitsune, who just giggled.
"It's almost time for Otokoyo to begin," it sang, falling back into it's child mockery with ease, as the lanterns above the gate began to light up.
