My secrets are burning a hole From my heart and my bones catch a fever When it cuts you up this deep It's hard to find a way to breathe...
Your eyes are swallowing me Mirrors start to whisper Shadows start to see My skin's smothering me Help me find a way to breathe! Wake up! Take my hand and give me a reason to start again. Wake up! Pull me out and give me a reason to start again!

Time stood still The way it did before It's like I'm sleepwalking Fell into another hole I dug It's like I'm sleepwalking
I'm at the edge of the world Where do I go from here? Do I disappear? Edge of the world Should I sink or swim? Or simply disappear?

 ► █ Name : Akemi Baskerville. ► █ Nickname(s) : Pup. ► █ Age : Mid-Twenties. ► █ Gender : Female. ► █ Sexual Orientation : Inexperienced and Undecided. ► █ Stage : One. ► █ Faction : Blackhearts. One day. ► █ Race : Witch. ► █ Theme/Type : Barghest Maleficarum.
*** Akemi's techniques are inspired by the Barghest, mixing together shadow techniques with animal themed characteristics. Barghest Maleficarum are witches suited to close range battle. ***
► █ Abilities :
✥ Path to Darkness :: This is Akemi's transportation technique. She can use shadows like portals, stepping through one to reform in a different place. There is a general rule in this - she must be able to visualize the place she wants to go and there must be a shadow at least the size of her own form, for her to pass through at the other end. Akemi can also step into other people shadows, and carry her with them unnoticed - this is a great way to keep herself concealed and to track people. It is also great for sneak attacks!
✥ Wrath of the Beast :: Akemi steals the shadows around her, manipulating them into a giant claw like form around her arms. To her these weapons are as weightless as shadows themselves, but to others they feel very real indeed causing physical damage, like a real claw.
✥ Shadow Shards :: Akemi has the ability to shatter shadows like glass, then use these shards to rain down on her opponent like rain. These cause light cuts, but never go in deep enough to cause real damage. The shards disperse back into shadow after a few seconds, allowing for the victim to bleed out.
✥ Dark Fang :: Akemi whirls her arms, ripping away the shadows in the area into one whip like manifestation, she then cracks her wrists and the shadow cuts on impact, it knocks her opponent back a few feet.
✥ Shadow Master :: Generally, Akemi can manipulate shadows. She can pull them across her to absorb damage, use then to wrap around cuts to stop bleeding, or manifest a mount to ride on.
► █ Occupation : Wanderer. Shunned Maiden of Baskerville. ► █ Favored Weapon/Item: Shadow Claws. ► █ Notable Skills: Eating. She. Eats. Alot. ► █ Quote: "The end is extremely bloody nigh!" ► █ Personality :
✥ Secretive :: Can you keep a secret? So can Akemi. She is very cryptic and often speaks in riddles. She does not give up what she knows easily, and usually wont unless it benefits her in some way. She does not talk about herself, which makes it very hard for anyone to get to know her, and unless you hear something from someone else or do some serious snooping, it is going to stay that way.
✥ Self Serving :: Akemi does not act for any other reason besides her own benefit. She is not into this whole... charity thing. She will sometimes do things for her friends, because it benefits her for them to be safe and happy, but she will never do something for a stranger or someone she does not care about. She has big ambitions and knows she is going to have to step on some toes to gain the power she desires. This helps her disconnect from the consequences her actions can have on others.
✥ Power-Hungry :: Power is something she is attracted to, something she admires and desires for herself. To her, this translates into physical strength and the ability to dominate. She trains herself to become stronger because one day she wants to be recognized as the strongest witch of them all. She also craves the power that authority brings and the title of 'the elite of the elite'. This is her goal in life and what she works so hard to achieve. Her motivations behind that goal are classified, but it is something she takes very seriously.
✥ Cocky :: Akemi is a hot-head. She always has some smart remark or sarcastic comment to throw out. She does not accept defeat, and will keep coming back until she is the victor or dead. It is in her nature to want to come out ontop, and as you might guess, this makes her very competitive. In a way her confidence is charming and it is refreshing to hear such optimism, at the same time it is always getting her into trouble.
✥ Short Fuse :: I AM SO PISSED OFF! RWAR! (┛◉Д◉)┛彡┻━┻
✥ Wild :: Despite all her flaws, Akemi is quite enjoyable company. She likes to train, go on adventures, eat, drink, dance, eat, play games and eat some more. She does have down time every so often and during this time she is your average twenty something year old trying to hold onto her youth. She is chatty, humorous and unless you make her mad, quite an agreeable character and a good friend. She is protective of those she cares about, and despite her selfish ways, would move mountains for her loved ones if it was in her power.
► █ Strengths : Confident. Strong. Brave. ► █ Weaknesses : Cocky. Self-Serving. Over confident. Glutton.

► █ History :
Akemi's life has always been plagued by the threat of destiny. She was born the Heiress to a powerful witch clan known as the Baskerville, a feral clan who ruled over a small settlement of witches in the mountains. Beyond anything else they were feared, most people thinking them as more beast than human. That is not too far from the truth, the family craved power and detested the weak. They lived in a large mansion in the woods, the surrounding foliage being their hunting ground. They expected an offering from the village every year, that of an untainted maid of whom they would bring into the family and breed with. It was not uncommon for one male wolf to have multiple wives. Whenever the village asked of them for protection a blood sacrifice had to be made, that of the strongest warrior. This soul would be left in the woods and hunted for game, thus the family was able to keep complete domination over the witches. This system had been set in place for generations, yet despite there demands, not much else was known of them. Making their existence even more terrifying.
Akemi was born the first child to the Alpha. Her line being the only one untainted by the weaker blood of the settlement witches. She was a purebred and the pack expected her to lead them to greatness, however the girl was not born great, far from it infact. Even though her skills in combat were amazing for her age, her inability to change into a beast caused great concern. Shape-shifting magic ran strong in the family and nobody knew why Akemi had such a mental block surrounding the technique, they started to whisper, rumors emerged, anger, disappointment. Akemi grew up with her family ashamed to call her heir, unknowing of a loving touch or a word of praise. Back then she was a broken shell of a girl, a ghost who walked around the family estate bearing the burden of her blood and the wrath of her father who often showed his disappointment with physical punishment.
There was nothing she could do and when her younger brother was born her fate was sealed. The family thought her a joke, unworthy to rule them, so it was decided that she would become a blood sacrifice and have their resentment die with her. By this point Akemi's tears had dried up and the thought of eternal rest was a blessing. She felt like she had nothing left inside, no will to fight the fate that tormented her, she had become a husk, the monster they had always wanted. So one fateful night she was set free into the forest, as naked as the day she was born with one goal. Stick to the path and win her freedom by emerging at the other side of the woods. Then the girl ran, she ran and ran until her feet were cut by the rough forest floor and her breath was painful to contain in her lungs.
A lot of things happened in that forest, most of which she has never repeated. In the end she had decided, she was not going to die on command like a good dog. When her life was threatened, when death loomed, she found a strength inside her, a will to live she had never experienced before. The girl killed, and she enjoyed it more than she could ever imagine. Coming out the other end covered in scarlet and under the light of the moon she found no mercy from the settlement. They chased her out with rocks and pitchforks like the monster she was. All the resentment, every maiden sacrificed, every son ripped apart in the woods, she bore their hatred and then disappeared, never to be seen by her family or the village again.
Three years later she turned up in Makai with only one goal. Blood. A normal life has always seemed out of her hands and her only purpose is battle. It is all she lives for, all she desires. Maybe one day her bloodthirsty nature will find a set release. In truth Akemi is a broken girl, looking for a place in the world. Her destiny is now her own to forge, but the scars of memory remain. The only thing she knows is that she will live as long as she can as one final act of defiance.
► █ Current Situation :
Akemi is living with an old blind woman known to her as Nana. They both reside in a small cottage in the woods near Poena Privus. There relationship is very odd and nobody knows the connection the two women share. Akemi seems to come and go as she pleases and in many ways their relationship resembles that of a woman and her stray dog. When she is not with Nana she can usually be found training or running with the Blackhearts.

► █ Wanted Plots :
✥ Taking the Black :: I want Akemi to follow the path of the Blackhearts. Any plots involving them in some way is wanted. Getting to know them, training, learning the ropes. I want them all, connections, fun. You get the drill. Beat her, break her, test her, bleed her.... Be ruthless! I love torturing my characters and the road to black is not an easy one. Major character development will happen.
✥ Wayward Romances :: Akemi does not think she is deserving of a normal life. She lives for battle, not love. However her lack of positive physical contact whilst growing up is obvious. I want her to have plenty of flings, casual romances. She is clueless when it comes to love and she is wanting to experiment. Maybe one day one person will tame her heart, but that will not be without a lot of relationship development.
✥ Social Situations :: She does not act normal, infact most find her very strange. Maybe some misunderstandings, someone to help her fit into society a little more and tell her what is and what is not acceptable. She acts move like a canine than a person, and this makes bonding with people rather difficult.

► █ Relationships :
✥ The Skeleton General :: How do I know know this girls actual name? Long story short she saved my life and my innocence. Not something I am very proud of, however that does not make me any less grateful. She is a Blackheart, in truth I still do not know much about them, however they seem strong so the idea of training with them excites me! She is adorable but terrifying at the same time, I find her deadly abilities both attractive and worth envy. I would like to get to know her a little better, but am not too sure how a friendship between us would plan out. We seem very different, afterall. Who knows, we shall have to wait and see! If nothing else we have bonded over our love of obscure names and food! .... She also likes this Knight. I plan to tease her about him relentlessly. Also she wears battle lingerie... My heart flutters.... I do not know what else to say. *closes journal to prevent more unnecessary rambling*
✥ Fol :: I do not know if I like him or detest him. He says annoying things, does annoying things and is generally the most annoying man I know. He seems to think he is a beast, but hides behind armor and serves a master like a dog. When I pointed this out he went s**t crazy. Never the less he has his moments and is quite fun to play with, I have managed to get quite an extreme emotional reaction out of him. He is very attractive, but that is not enough to keep my interest forever. In truth, I do not know if I want to see him again, but if we meet in passing I might indulge in another game or two. See how far I can push him. However, I often wonder. It is his personality I detest, or the fact the one person who could possible relate to me in this world is not what I want him to be? Hmmm.
✥ Marcus :: The first rule of fight club is to never talk about the entrance fee! I am hoping this will be the start of a wonderful partnership ~
