Gaia Name: Arena Emperor

Name: Francesc Fabregas
Nicknames: "Cesc" [His preferred name] Ichiro Kuzunoha
Age: 22 (Actually Unknown)
Appearance:
School: --
Grade: --
Homeroom: --
Love Interest: ???
Personality: Lazy, entitled, and a natural exhibitionist to comical levels [he's almost never seen wearing a shirt and often finds that he has lost his pants without remembering when, where, or why]. His followers are loyal to him for his laid back and tolerant guidance, and the fact that much of the time, he couldn't care less what they do around him [evidenced by a particular incident Alex, Yelizaveta, and Ray occasionally refer to in which they claim to have 'tapped that', while Cesc simply shrugged, unperturbed, and let it happen]. He tends to cast off any sort of social or moral constraints in living a much more chaotic, free existence. Outwardly, he would seem to be one of the least competent members of The Orochi, but when circumstance calls and he is forced to make a move [or intrigued enough to do so], Cesc has a confidence and competence that seemingly outdistances all his contemporaries. There is a darkness hidden behind his green eyes...in the center of which might lie the reasons behind his gathering of the members of Orochi, and the origins of his abilities as a Summoner.
Bio: Cesc claims to have been born in Greece with Italian ancestry, but at some point he was separated from his family and ended up in Japan. Cesc's history prior to Japan and how he became a Devil Summoner [and the origins of his other powers] are a secret known only to him and a few others. However it is known that over the last few years he has traveled the world and come into contact with various people bearing a certain 'potential' whom he gathered under the banner of an organization he founded called 'The Orochi Summoners', 'The Orochi', or simply, 'Orochi'. Believing in little else other than a concept of 'absolute freedom' and operating generally in one or two-person missions and sects, they take only the most interesting of requests from just about anybody who has managed to catch wind of their organization's existence. Recently, however, they've fallen off the grid for those who were tracking them...only now surfacing in the town of Inaba for purposes that are unknown outside the organization. And asking Cesc himself would only merit the response that the town 'seemed like the perfect haven for a pursuer of absolute freedom'.

Gaia Name: Overlord Gabby

Name: Alexander 'The Great'
Nicknames: Alex
Age: ???
Appearance:
School: N/A
Grade: N/A
Homeroom: N/A
Love Interest: None
Personality: Alexander is so over-the-top and so outrageous with everything she does, she's practically begging to be punched in the face. She always has to make a scene wherever she goes, whether that be with her clothes or her multiple imaginary friends. Attention is what she thrives on, negative or positive, because if people aren't looking at her, the fact that they never were looking at her, but rather her outlandishness, becomes painfully apparent.

This has lead her to make some rather... Questionable friends... Namely, several imaginary ones (all of which have varying levels of depression and mania) and a cloud. Sadly, the cloud is the sanest one, for it never talks. But I'm sure if it COULD talk to her, the words said would be of unbelievable wisdom.... Or something like that. The cloud in particular takes the place of a real 'friend,' since Alex finds herself incapable of regular socialization.

When I say she'll do anything to put on a show, that's EXACTLY what I mean. Anything. If it gets her some wild looks, then it'll be done.

Whether her unwavering confidence is, in fact, a facade, or not, is a question that will never be answered.

Bio: There are various stories concerning Alex's past, probably because every time somebody asks she makes up a completely new one. Between these stories there are only two consistencies; one, she was born in Germany, and two, she was very bored as a child. It's not in the girl's nature to ever tell the truth about her life prior to joining The Orochi Summoners, only because the story, in her mind, is incredibly dull and not at all worth listening to. This may or may not be the truth, though one can safely assume that Alex's version of 'dull' isn't quite the same as what a regular person's would be.

One of her favorite versions (and probably the one closest to the truth) is that at a young age she ran away to join a small traveling circus group. Alex thrived on the attention gained from participating in whatever act she got assigned (she never really went into specifics, but if the story is true, they've all most likely got something to do with acrobatics) and the adrenaline rush she got from doing it.

It was through this circus that she was found by Cesc, the leader of The Orochi. Upon discovering her potential for summoning he recruit her into the group. It wasn't that difficult to sway her in the end. Being part of the group meant that she could perform for various people on a large scale; consequences be damned!

From that moment on Alexander has been a member of The Orochi with an uncharacteristic loyalty, however fragile it may be.

[Demon] Form

Physical Appearance when Transformed: - A sharp crystal formation juts out of the spot on the right-side of her stomach where the liver is located, her hair changes into an almost blindingly bright shade of yellow with neon blue and orange streaks running through it, her eyes turn a sickly yellow color, and her skin takes an almost purple hue, save her stomach, which looks looks much like an infected cut would -

Soul Shard: Divine Healing - In exchange for her liver, and any other organs if the liver is completely eaten (which Dara, her summon, uses as a form of sustenance), Alex is granted a powerful understanding and control over thunder/lightning. If a foe happens to slip up and use an electric based attack, she can manipulate it to hit either them or (the more likely choice) an ally of their's.

She also is granted the ability to eat electricity to heal injuries. This is proportionate to the amount of electricity eaten, of course, so her usual method of getting the electricity needed to heal, batteries, is only enough to fix minor wounds. This is because most of the electricity goes to maintaining her liver, which is constantly being eaten at by Dara. Luckily, Dara is a fairly slow eater (what with being made of wood and all) and so, a total of 73 minutes and 27 seconds can pass before the entire liver is eaten. This means that Alex has to regularly ingest a source of electricity so as to not be eaten alive. This includes any electricity based attacks.

Gaia Name: Great Ryoman!

Name: Izaya Amatsu
Nicknames: "His Highness", mockingly (His name is highly presumptuous)
Age: 28
Appearance:
School: --
Grade: --
Homeroom: --
Love Interest: Ray Hale
Personality: A bit hard working but entitled to some bouts of laziness, Izaya has made due with what he has after learning the hard way just how easy it is lose something important. As a former Fukoshi he learned to be worldly, taking harming others harshly despite the rest of the Orochi's influence. Since he lacks some of the special powers that they have, he constantly tries to keep up with others, and knows what it's like to be stronger than most people, and weaker than some. As such he has a much more levelheaded view of the world than some of his other friends, and sees what they're doing in a negative light, though he will do anything to defend them and to defend his convictions.
Bio: A denizen of the Fukoshi tribe's lands since birth, Izaya obviously faced nothing short of service to the Yatagarasu, learning about the wickedness of the demon bugs they used from the time he joined their ranks as a teenager, when he was given the 'honor' of attending the supposedly forsaken ritual in which a girl was given to the Tento. If that was suppose to be a mind crippling event however Izaya showed little change from it, admitting that for a long time he'd felt the shady-ness of the village and was only proven right by time, his intuition abnormally good. Instead of blending into the cultural backwoods of their traditions however Izaya thought about setting up an Inn, and after some persuasion, managed to convince the owner of the Tsukigata Village's current one to give him the property, where he could interact more with visitors, dress in more leisurely cloths as he was laid off from more important duties, and disappear every now and again for a rest, something he'd begun to adapt to habitually.

Staying in the Inn every now and again were any number of Devil Summoners, but amongst them the one he came to know best wasn't the local Geirin, but the lackadaisical Cesc, who happened to have more in common than him than a lot of people. Amongst their similarities were their abnormally bland attitudes, their sloth-like nature much of the time, and the fact that each seemed to find a vice in time; Izaya found himself smoking, though it wasn't a habit he officially adopted at the time. The Fukoshi were taught of the honor the Summoners and to choose one they would assist should the village ever render their services, but to Izaya there was never even a choice, because to him the Fukoshi were meant to be the hand behind the current that guided fate, and the Summoners, Cesc in particular, seemed to know that it wasn't necessary to wave a torch at bugs when the moth would naturally come to the flame. Demons were inevitable, continual, and the Yatagarasu's goals of raising Japan to be the world's greatest power and ruling the country were too manipulative for his taste, giving him a long sigh with every knew announcement of the Fukoshi's "victory".

The rest was a pretty bland story actually. One day Cesc had left without any enthusiasm and in such a lack luster fashion that no one in the village seemed to notice, but when he did Izaya simply waited polishing glasses in the Inn patiently for a few hours. Then, later that evening he shut off the lights in the Inn, turned off the gas and water to prevent any leaks that might occur, and walked out of the village without kicking up fuss or saying a farewell to anybody. As a Fukoshi of course they assumed that he was going to sell out their secret skills, and he was interrupted by the immediate watch on the edge of town before he ever reached the train. Later there was no report of what happened except for a few dead bodies, both of the unlucky guys thrown under the train tracks just before it arrived, leaving an unpleasant reminder to the Fukoshi of the one who got away. Then he followed Cesc, joined Orochi, met the fireball who he seemed to gravitate towards for her natural that was so opposite of the "family head's" (and who also caused his adoption of the smoking habit), and the rest of the bland story led to the present. While usually an average-looking Japanese citizen, he sometimes has a tendency to find his unknown energy when one of Cesc's Family is in danger, and becomes much more akin to Ray's attitude when such things happen. Oh, and he has a bit of psychological narcolepsy. A lot of people joke he got it from emulating the head of Orochi all the time.

Gaia Name: Kohaku Bear

Name: (First Last) Ai Liu-Song
Nicknames: Sister Grimm
Age: 21
Appearance: Ai and ai
School: Dropout, Runaway
Grade: See Above
Homeroom: See Above
Love Interest: "Variety is the spice of life"
Personality: While Sister Grimm is not tweaked out on the latest designer drugs, a more than common occurrence, she is swelled so full of the emotional 'soup of the day' that the young witch can seem almost full to bursting with that feeling.
Bio: Ai Lui-Song spent the first sixteen years in, as she would call it, captivity. Raised by an overbearing mother and a father who couldn't give a crap Ai lived the regular sheltered girl life. Home-schooled from day one, trained as a classical violinist Sister Grimm's childhood years were mostly unremarkable. Sure she excelled in home-schooling and was surprisingly skilled at the violin her social skills were negligible at best. Her sheltered life continued for years as she toiled at home not knowing any other life until she met a dashing young man who was to be her new violin instructor. Their relationship blossomed as Ai became friends with the young instructor until their relationship took a more… adult turn. The instructor took advantage of his student. Soon after the relationship began Ai was pregnant with her instructor's child. When Ai's parents found out that she had squandered all of their hard work they went berserk. Within hours of finding out their daughter was pregnant Mr. and Mrs. Liu-song made their decision, and that night Ai was on the street on her own. She hoped to be able to look for shelter with her lover but he had disappeared and would never be heard from again having run from the prospect of parenthood.

Ai spent months going from woman's shelter to woman's shelter trying to find someone that would take care of her but no one wants to take responsibility for a pregnant teenage girl. Eventually nine months had passed Ai was in labor. Rushed to a hospital from the shelter Ai's daughter was stillborn. Without anything to keep her from running off Sister Grimm took to the streets refusing to believe her child, who she had protected for nine months even while on the street, had died. While there the girl spiraled towards her own destruction. She ran to drugs to dull the pain of her sad life. It was here, on the street one pill away from a death by overdose, that Cesc found Ai. He offered her everything, everything that she wanted everything that she needed… and she jumped at it. However the act of sealing the demon Morrigan into her came at a price, Ai gave up the ability to feel or experience love for anything.

While the Orochi heads have been off on their mission in Inaba Sister Grimm has been at a secondary orochi base keeping herself entertained while the others do whatever it is they do. Ai waits, on most days, patiently for the return of her fellow members and passes the time by practicing her magic.
