Bio:
Yuudai is the descendant of an ancient clan of Yokai (Demons). He was to be the third Heir of the Nura clan, yet his human side refused to accept this, yes, he was 1/4 demon himself, yet he did not know it, him and his demon consciousness were completely ignorant of each other.
It was 1867, during the Keio era. Yuudai was called forth to his fathers chambers to discuss his acquiring the throne and title to the Nura clan. While Yuudai, in his human form, refused to lead demons, for as a human they would hold him with contempt. He was this night made aware of his demon side. Yuudai refused to believe such truths, he wouldn't accept that he was part demon, and, unless given proof, his beliefs would not change.
Night after night he argued with his father about the truth of what he was being told. His father became so crossed with his son that he threatened his life. Yuudai's father was becoming old and weak, he was to die soon and if an Heir was not chosen before his death, the Nura clan would be nothing more than a scattered name to the wind. Yuudai's demon side had accepted to the offer of being the next Heir, yet his human side could not comprehend the terms, or the fact that he was being told that his spirit had a demon inhabitant.
As Yuudai's father called him into one last meeting, now with the warlord demons present, he presented his son with an ancient shaman, someone whom would be able to show Yuudai that he was indeed part demon, and thus, he would know that the demons would in fact follow him, in fact, the demons wanted no one else besides Yuudai, they held utter respect for him and thus desired him to take up the charge of the third heir of the Nura clan.
The shaman did in fact convince Yuudai that he possessed a demon, that he was born part demon, yet still, Yuudai could not come to grips with this. With new evidence presented, Yuudai told his father that he needed one night, and one night only, to go over what has happened to him, and thus, his father granted him this one last request, but warned that if he did not make up his mind after one night than he would take his own sons life and not allow the Nura clans petty existence after he was gone live on with his son whom was the one that literally destroyed it because of his refusal.
Yuudai did indeed take his one night, and the next morning he accepted the offer, though it was with great hesitation, he did not want to die, but, he wanted to let his father live the last days of his life in peace and in harmony. And so it was, when the old lord died, Yuudai was crowned the new heir of the Nura clan, and the newest lord of the Yokai. It was with this new title that Yuudai changed in personality and characteristics. He had it his disposal, the strongest Yokai among any of the other seventeen clans. He was the most powerful leader in all the world, and his clan name held the most respect among any other, as they always took in stray or abandoned Yokai and sheltered them and made them apart of their league.
After inheriting his fathers legacy though, Yuudai's demon form was now trying to take full control of his body, and while the two were the same person physically, their personalities were completely different. Yuudai as a human was peaceful, shy and caring. While his demon side was destructive and had a love of carnage. He demanded the loyalty of the strongest demons, and fear from the weak. He did however still have honor for the clan name and for weak Yokai, he would protect them and suffer no ill will towards them from anyone. However, he did not think twice in gaining what he desired, mostly from other clans.
It was during the 19th century that Yuudai met his end at the hands of a beautiful Yokai. It was the battle between the Nura Clan, and the Osawaga clan. The Nura clan was vitorious by far, however, this female Yokai possessed a power far beyond anything that Yuudai could ever imagine. After his death, his will was discovered and Zen, a strong Yokai was left the title of Head of Nura. After that, all clans, except Nura have faded into dust. Nura is the only clan still fully operational, full of Yokai and constantly saving more and more. Rumor has it, Zen now lives with his wife and many Yokai sons and daughters and the Nura mansion.

Usubakougeki['うすばこうげき Blade Attack']
The ability to counter attack with what appears to be a hundred blades. With this ability, Yuubai's ability to swing his blade becomes 10 times faster than what it normally is, though this does not give him extra speed or other skills. He rushes his opponent, as his ability to swing his blade is now faster, the opponent feels as if they are blocking a hundred blades, when in truth it is only just one.
Assai['あっさい [Crushing']
Similar to his second ability, a massive amount of spiritual pressure builds up in the blade, making it glow red.

Bankai
- Extended Name:
Physical Changes:
In his Bankai, Yuudai once again does not change to impress. He now gains two blades, identical to his shikai and his sealed state. His eyes hold an effulgent glow, bright blue in color. Yuubai cannot control his spiritual pressure in his Bankai, no matter the amount of pressure.

Souseiji['そうせいじ'Twins]
Yuudai's sword skill increases. He is able to execute precision attacks without miss. He is also able to provide himself a perfect defense against all me-lee attacks. This ability is accurate 0 of the time. It only fails when the opponent uses a stronger Kido based skill or a certain long ranged attack.
Oufuu['おうふう'Cross Wind]
In this ability, Yuudai places both blades atop each other. A huge amount of spirit pressure builds between the blades, the glow a bright light, then Yuubai unleashes blade from blade in a "X" shape. The force behind the attack is so powerful that it sends forth a light shaped "X" attack this is able to penetrate most any defense. This ability also has strong effects against Kido based defenses and attacks. The power behind this attack is extremely destructive
Ichirenios['いちれん'Twin Chain]
This ability is a stronger version of the ability in his Shikai. Yuudai now possesses two swords and he can now create two sets of linkages to attack his opponent with. The blades in the linkage now are thinner, sharper, and the delay time between retracting and releasing is less than half a second. The length of the linkage blades in this ability however is limited to a hundred feet whereas the shikai ability has no limitations.
Koukeiki['こうけいき'Samurai Bomb]
Both of Yuudai's blades go forth and land on adjacent sides of the opponent. They both glow and detonate, creating a gigantic explosion that covers several hundred yards. This attack is the second strongest attack that Yuudai has in his Bankai form. After the attack has been triggered the Blades return to Yuudai, not actually have blown up themselves, just sending off a massive wave of destruction from two points. Yuudai can activate this attack anywhere he wants so long as he can picture the place in his mind. His blades will fly off to that area and activate.
Ekitaikou['えきたいこう'Liquid Steel]
Yuudai exerts so much spiritual pressure onto both of his blades they liquefy. The liquid steel hovers about Yuudai. Yuudai can extend these to masses of liquid steel to any length he desires. He can form them into any size or shape. He is able to attack with them in any way he desires. Their force is incredible. If they are attacking in a liquefied state, it's almost impossible to block them, as they can separate and avoid the block, turn around immediately and attack from behind. This is Yuubai's most powerful ability as it is limitless in the ways he can use the ability, he can even cover himself with it for a near impenetrable defence.
