Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tigers are sensitive, given to deep thinking, capable of great sympathy. They can be extremely short-tempered, however. Other people have great respect for them, but sometimes tigers come into conflict with older people or those in authority. Sometimes Tigers cannot make up their minds, which can result in a poor, hasty decision or a sound decision arrived at too late. They are suspicious of others, but they are courageous and powerful. Tigers are most compatible with Horses, Dragons, and Dogs.

Username: Sryne
Character name: Kazuki
Zodiac sign: Tiger
Gender: Male
Age: 23

Appearance: Picture link.

Background: Kazuki was born to a widowed mother, but lived well enough. His father died after a deal went south with a zealous merchant who was all too ready to use the man for his skills as a swordsmith. After the burial of her husband, Kazuki's mother took up the work where his father had left off. While she wasn't as skilled as he from the start, she had often helped him when his work was busy and after some practice she soon became as good a smith as her late husband. She taught this skill to her son and when he was old enough sent him to apprentice an old sword master. He spent a few years under this master, learning new skills and honing them to perfection. It was then that he got the calling, a deep desire in his heart to quest for something, and that is exactly what he did.

Powers: As predicted, Kazuki can transform into an oversized white tiger, but this is not his only power. He also has the power of celerity (incredible speed) and the ability to control darkness.

Weapons: Kazuki expertly wields a long, sharp katana as well as two small daggers. He is equally skilled in the use of each, but often prefers the use of the daggers for their extra speed. (Katana / Daggers)
