----Basic Information----
Mind behind the Character: Yokai Yakuza
Name: Rihan Asmodium Nurarihyon
Gender: Male
Age: Unknown
Personality: Ever since he was young Rihan has believed that the ability to invoke awe in ones allies and respect in ones foes are what makes a person strong. In his youth Rihan usually exaggerated foolish characteristics to make people feel unthreatened and to hide his identity, as well as using these outrageous actions and chronic kindness as a way to mask his own pain when in fact he was an utterly tormented and lonely being. He tends to have a habit of investigating things on his own without informing others, even disappearing for long spans of time without prior notice.
Rihan is now rather laid back, playing with his words to sound charming or vague. In his off time, he often drinks sake in trees or on rooftops and naps. He's relaxed persona, often puts people at odds, and his ability to remain...not necessarily calm, but optimistic regardless of the situation is a key trait of his. Charismatic, and witty, Rihan can charm even the most hardened of individuals. He rarely shows anger, or anything else aside from his sly personality. These traits have served him well, allowing him to mingle with virtually any crowd. Rihan is well known for his good looks, his fitness, his brilliant out-of-the-box thinking, ability to talk, lie or charm his way out of (or into) anything, and his charisma. These traits have served him well, allowing him to mingle with virtually any crowd, and win the cooperation of dozens of groups and other highly influential people. His intelligence in his respective fields are unprecedented, surprising even seasoned veterans of his insightfulness.
Despite having a great sense of caution in battle , he will continue as his sense of caution only makes the situation more thrilling. Rihan has been known to smile in the faces of both danger and death. He also has a habit of having joyful tone in his voice whenever he combats a strong opponent due to wanting a challenge that will make him stronger at the end of it. The habit seems anger both his friends and foe alike, believing that he isn't taking their fight seriously. Rihan will often downplay his own abilities so that he can shock a target later on with his true nature. He is highly confident in his abilities,but not arrogant. Even when outnumbered, he remains composed, adaptable, and calculating, quickly able to adjust to new developments and change his battle tactics. Rihan has the unnatural trait to tell only the truth about his abilities once he finally decides to reveal them to his foes, something that seems to unnerve most of whom he faces. Despite his tenacity Rihan will usually stop a fight if his opponent is too injured to fight back. He also does not feel obligated to deal a death blow to anyone who cannot fight any longer. However, he will unhesitatingly kill his opponent if they refuse to submit or they have pushed him to far. On multiple occasions, he has shown to greatly respect those who can surprise him in a fight and those who can push him to his limit.
Rihan also has a very unwavering level of loyalty towards his friends or those he cares about, and can lose his temper quickly if they are harmed in any way. Rihan is willing to do extremely drastic acts to avenge and defend those dear to him, even if it means breaking a promise to his friends. Additionally, he holds the belief that all people should be loyal to their friends, and if Rihan were to see anyone being betrayed by their own comrades, he would stand up for the victims (even if they are his enemies). Rihan takes all attacks or betrayals extremely personal and upon finding out information on those responsible he moves to destroy everything even remotely associated with them. Since youth Rihan has made it a habit to methodically eradicate anything having any ties or relation to that person caring little of who gets in the way or dies in the process. When it comes to the subject of anger one could call it the “black dragons hidden wrath” as Rihan rarely if ever shows this side of him but when he does so, it’s unquestionable that its quite intimidating to see a man who’s usually smiling suddenly pull a complete reverse in terms of personality. When enraged, Rihan will stop smiling completely and will direct what others have to referred to as his “death gaze” towards those who he deems as enemies. Due to the fact Nura are people greatly devoted to loyalty and friendship, a member's love can be transformed into hatred in the blink of an eye . Disrespect against his family, or friends is not something he tolerates.
Rihan, at odds with his families arguably intimidating reputation has remained a calm and charismatic individual, with a knack for bringing out the best in people. He is also more perceptive than he seems, and often tells people what they need to hear instead of what they want. He is a calm and calculating man, unconventional ; who firmly believes that one man can change the world, whether it be from the shadows or through public action. Rihan is very adept at putting forth his own views and getting others to identify with his point of view, often with the result of them warming to his ideals; usually adopting them as their own in due course. Not only is he a natural orator who can sway others with his words, his eyes have been noted to have a similar quality, with a mere gaze he could inspire feelings of courage and hope, making others see things from his perspective"; showcasing his impressive charisma and inspiring air even without the use of words. He seems to be well aware of these traits though, and is more than willing to label himself as the catalyst and foundation stone. To sum it up Rihan is a man who doesn't believe in conformity.
He holds the view that "when all think alike, then no one is thinking". His lack of conformity to anything is ultimately seen in his speech and actions, as he rarely agrees with the collective whole; usually being the one to offer a different method of doing things or an additional point to a discussion. This attitude, as well as his past rebellious streak, made him a subject of much monitoring within the demonic underground, as well as a rallying point for others with similar ideals. Most Tribunal officials believe he is a dangerous man and a potentially dangerous future element should he ever turn his impressive charisma and intelligence into conquest.
Preferring to live an independent life, Rihan has shown to be a very mysterious and withdrawn being, not having contact with any other being unless he has to. As noted by those that know him well, Rihan possesses a tremendous amount of willpower. If his options are viable, body not destroyed, and his mission clear, Rihan will not give in. Throughout his life Rihan has survived numerous trials through pure determination and will. He is not one to be manipulated and has a powerful drive within him that has pushed him through numerous battles. This aspect of his personality has been prominent since he first began combat training; as he always showed the necessary willpower to constantly improve himself. Like most of his bloodline, Rihan carries a powerful presence;even for a demon. To sum it up Rihan is a carefree man in a state of peace, but he can be aggressive and protective when those that he cares for are in danger. He's is 'cool' type of guy that can make friends with anyone if not everyone, and, if not friendship, at least respect. From the moment you make his acquaintance... the entire time he will test you. He will throw the entirety of himself at you ,and beat you. Then...he will acknowledge you,and you will have lost to him completely.
History:
[Nurarihyon:The Legend]
The Yōkai Sōdaishō, Supreme Commander of Yokai. The leader of the Hyakki Yagyō; Night Parade of 100 Demons. The King of the Chiryomoji, the Spirits of Earth and Air. Nurarihyon is a yokai of many grand titles. Every demon listens to his words and pays him respect, treating him as the elder and leader in almost all ancient myths.
The original Nurarihyon is usually depicted as an elderly man wearing the clothes of a Buddhist monk, and is described as the sort of demon that always manages to elude one's grasp. Nurarihyon are described as conceptual demons that can alter a persons perception of reality while also having control over fantasy. The Nurarihyon will sneak into someone's house while they are away, drink their tea, and act as if it is their own house. Because it looks human, anyone who sees him will mistake him for the owner of the house, making it very hard to expel him. The Nurarihyon are, essentially, very stealthy demon who use their control over an enemy's senses to defeat or evade them.
[Rise of the Nura Clan]
The Nura Clan is renowned for producing powerful demon leaders for generations. Toshin Raizen was the first well known member of the clan and was born in what would become the Netherworld. Back when demons,Kishen and witches fought for territory , Raizen was among the most-powerful of the Demon Lords, and gained great power as well as a large following. In his prime it was said that he could have easily claimed the title of Demon King. Among the demons of that time he seemed to have a knack for being able to survive comfortably despite the harsh conditions. All those who met with him weather in battle, or by chance always seemed to hold him in high regard. Even his fiercest enemies held a vast amount of respect in his power,and his subordinates followed him without reprouch. He was also able to establish,and fully maintain his own territory in a much shorter period than most.
[Nura Clan Second Generation]
Raizen eventually married a demon named Pakura Seraphafi and gave birth to Makai and Majeh Nura. Alongside his brother, Makai was considered the most gifted member ,even by his clan's standards. According to legend the Seraphafi once sealed a powerful, ancient dragon that once ran wild in the Neatherworld. Since sealing the dragon they have used its powers to augment thier abilities and knowledge thus creating thier territory. Demons born with the souls of dragons, the blood within them in a constant power struggle. Makai,and Majeh each sought something different in life—truth for the older brother and ideals for the younger—and they began to argue, then fight, over whose side was right. The single dragon, in response, split into two to mimic the brothers ideological differences. The brothers were equally matched as they battled and neither conquered the other. As a result, the brothers set aside their differences and equally declared that there was no right side, either.
Majeh subsequently disappeared sometime afterward,and was not seen again for quite a while. Afterward Makai spent every waking minute attempting to surpass his father and bring absolute honor to his clan's name. His skills were notable,and he is widely considered one of the most powerful demons of his time, and thus is both admired and feared by beings of all walks of life. There were very few that would even think of assaulting Makai or his territory, moreover, even less would try it. In a world where bloodlines were a huge factor of power, Makai is a man that earned his power through absolute hard work. Harsh training sessions and limit breaking battles morphed him into the warrior he is became.
[Makai and the Mazoku]
Seeking out powerful warriors to ally himself with Makai along with two others formed a powerful trinity,and called themselves Mazoku;Tribe of Devils. Over the course of years they grew to be renowned as a group of elite and powerful warriors. Though The Mazoku;The Tribe of Devils was known to fight against significant threats, they rarely fought as one unit. Because of the looseness of the group, there was no official leader, though each member of the had taken turns in a "leading" role when the group needed it most. It was said that in his prime Makai was among the strongest demons in the Netherworld,and that the Mazoku were among the strongest beings in the world. Upon his own request he was send to 'moorim' a realm in the next world where martial artist,swordsman,and or such warriors who have mastered their skills reside. Upon his arrival, countless masters in moorim had waited for him, master's who's skill can be called legendary, myth even. Knowing that he was coming, one by one they all picked fights with Makai. After many years Makai proved that his skill and strength was far above those that had challenged him. It wasn't long after that a group of individual that would later become the councils of The Netherworld became aware of Makai's presence. They subsequently declared he was too dangerous to let run free without restriction and devised a way to reign him in. Thru unknown means they placed one of the three gold marks of the Netherworld on him; The Naraku no Juin (Cursed Seal of Hell;Super Human Strength Sealing). The gold mark which maintains about 90% of the person physical strength while changing them back to a young adolescent. If that humility wasn't enough Makai, a legendary demon who proved his strength and skills to countless other legendary warriors who existed before him, was forced to become a envoy to the next world: ferrying souls across the border between life and death.
For countless years he watched as the Tribunal established the status quo,and savagely went after the other members of the Mazoku. Makai despised his fate so much that he traveled to the lowest levels of the Neatherworld that no demon dared travel to and began absorbing vast amounts of miasma and negative enrgies. The power mutated his body, and turned his true form into a horrific looking beast. He gained red skin,a tail and two horns, and the dragon within him became corrupted. For countless years he did his duty and secretly honed his skills to seek revenge on those that had sealed him and attacked his "brothers". Bidding his time while looking for a way to temporarily brake his seal,and escape into the world.
[Third and Fourth Generation]
After being summoned by a beautiful young witch named Retsuna Kurayami, Makai finally escaped the Netherworlds influence. After saving Retsuna from the extermination of her people the two settled down and had two children; Rihan and Yosuzume. He established a dragon clutching character for fear (畏) as the his symbol,and instilled within is children his Indomitable Will and a large amount of his harnessed power. The rest he instilled within Ryūmyaku (Dragon Veins); the ancient source of power that flows deep under his clans territory, until his two heirs could retrieve it as is their birthright. Yosuzume inherited Makai's control over Miasma,and his natural talent in battle, while Rihan inherited his raw strength and power over his clans dragon.
[Birth of the Third Heir]
Born the first child of Makai Nurarihyon and Retsuna Kurayami, Rihan was raised to become a warrior like his ancestors. Growing up, Rihan was surrounded by martial arts masters,and supernatural beings many of whom watched after him at his grandfather's behest when his father away. As a child, he was excited at the prospect of succeeding his father,and trained hard to master his powers. It was during this time he was introduce to Ren and the two became good friends.
When he was 5, his mother was killed in a invasion aimed to take down his father. The incident occurred on a snowy day, supposedly the first day Rihan saw snow. His mother had taken him outside, and was building a snowman with him when a mix of witches, and demons unleashed a barrage of blasts aimed at Rihan; Retsuna lost her life in the confrontation, but not before being tortured. The sorrow and rage the young Rihan experienced during this time instigated the awakening of the his Daijagan ( Eye of Fear) the first of his bloodlines abilities. From that point on he grew to dislike snow, to the point he would vacation in the farthest place away from it during winters, as snow was a constant reminder of that traumatic event. The image of snow stained red with his mothers blood is one of the defining memories he has of the incident. He spent a large amount of time solely devoting his training on avenging his mothers death.
[Moorim Clan Massacre]
By the age of thirteen Rihan and Ren took down the final remnants of the Moorim Clan after Ren's mothers death. This group of witches and demons had reached the pinnacle of their skills martial arts skills, and abused and terrorized people across the races: paying off the Tribunal to cover their tracks. The Moorim had heard of Makai's power and had instigated the attack that lead to the death of Rihan's mother to draw Makai out. There were over a thousand of them in total ,and Ren and Rihan mercilessly defeated them all. The descendants and masters of the Moorim, once men and women of such legendary skills that they seemed almost myth defeated by a single three tailed kitsune and a mere demon brat. The battle lasted three days and three nights, resulting in the entire Moorim Clan's extinction. When all was said and done the entire area was drenched in the color of blood with Rihan and Ren standing atop a pile of souls.
However, the pull of his inherited hatred permeated deep within his being Rihan wasn't satisfied until he ravaged the surrounding area killing hundreds of demons and humans in the process. He then subsequently consumed the large number of souls leading him down the path of the Kishen. Makai was eventually forced to fight his son causing massive damage to the area to prevent his son from going on a rampage. Soon after that event Makai left Rihan to his grandfather ashamed of letting his son go thru such an ordeal due to his hatred. It was during this time Makai turned his attention to Rihan's sister Yosuzume due to the far greater potential dangers that could emerged with her Miasma.
[Dragon of the Abyss Bahamut ]
With his father absent Rihan's grandfather Raizen and uncle Majeh taught him the ways of the and of the dragon within his. Rihan was during he learned of the Shiryū (四竜, Four Dragon Kings),and decided to challenge them. Per chance, the young demon crossed paths with two of its members while scouring the regions of his home, Hanehebi and Kokuryū. He challenged them to a death match, the two dragons immediately accepting, taking far too much pride in their power, without being wary of their opponent's. The battle lasted for an entire week, however in the end, Rihan triumphed, though only through expending the vast majority of the energy he had. He then assimilated thier power into his body, undergoing a complete metamorphosis. When the process was completed, he could feel a near-overwhelming amount of power circulating throughout his body;an almost euphoric state. It was then that he originally felt the Ooguro Ryuuya no Ishi (The Will of Great Black Dragon) Bahamut the entity inherited by his father.
[ Banōshō no Rihan;("King of Night Rihan")]
The more Rihan wandered the worlds, the more he was subjected to the grave injustice being performed on a daily basis. He witnessed murder, lies, rape, homicide and theft. The world was black and white, and he soon immerse himself in training his powers and consuming souls. It was during this time Rihan became the ruthless Yakuza he is known to be in the demon underground and massacred any and all individuals that ever held ties to the Moorim or dare challenge him. During this period Rihan and Ren became infamous through out the Netherworld like thier fathers once did. Rihan began to openly challenge his father’s neutral mentality,stating that the Netherworld Tribunal should pay for what it had done to thier family. Rihan gained the philosophical idea that the world was black and white. Those in power ,were white and all others were black. His father disapproved of this mentality and offered the view that the world should be seen in shades of grey; "where nothing is to clean and nothing is to dirty." Unlike his sister Rihan quickly rejected his father’s way of thinking stating it was that kind of foolish mentality that lead to the death of the other members of the Mazoku and his mother Retsuna. The two fought each other many times over the issue, causing Rihan to leave his family home for a years. He trained in various ways of demon arts,until he felt ready to face his father. He challenged Makai again, but even with all his training Makai beat him effortlessly, stating he needed to awaken more power to compete with him. Rihan left and became bitter vowing not to return until he was sure he would beat his father; in doing so surpassing him.
[ Something Beyond Madness ]
Rihan consumed more souls; traveling down the path of Kishin and accumulating a great following. Ren kept him in check, and hidden from Shibushin while the rest of his friends did the same with the other world factions. The soul of the black dragon awakening within Rihan subconscious pushed the boy to sink into madness turning him into a Shinku. Throughout the years, the dragon strengthened the boy by constantly leaking out small portions of its power, which had positive side-effects on Rihan's strength such as amplifying his naturally large soul wavelength reserves, and durability. Intensive mental training was also a primary source of Rihans development,but the dragons true intention was far from noble. After a extensive battle with a warlock Rihan shut himself away in the source of Ryūmyaku eventually beating the dragon with his sheer will alone, reaching a unique form of enlightenment; boosting his strength far beyond his ancestors. Awakening a third eye Rihan transcended the limitations of his blood and found his own Truth.
[Lord of Banmaden (The Palace of Ten Thousand Demon)]
The castle Banmaden stands on rocky terrain, dominated by the sprawling, maze-like castle that is nearly impossible for outsiders to find their way through. Though the castle has undergone a great deal of expansion throughout its centuries of existence, even the current heirs of the Nura don't even know all its secrets. There are over ten thousand demon who inhabit the area, and serve under the two heirs. Among other areas of the realm, the abundance of nature grants sanctuary to many rare mythical beasts. The name Nura carries the full weight of what would be considered noble status within the Netherworld,and due to its history is left alone by the Tribunal. Banmaden has the reputation of being a haven for those against the Tribunal,and offers them safe asylum. Rihan is the undisputed Lord, and as such his word is law in Banmaden. His goals are unknown and his existence an enigma to most .

----Abilities and Techniques Information----
Elemental
Yamigun(Dark Force)
- It is a primordial element born from the an ancient power, this one being derived from the "dark forces", as opposed to the power of chaos. Also know as the Abysmal Darkness, it controls what is known as the primordial "dark forces", natural elements or concepts of the universe, all relating to the "dark", allowing Rihan transcend most, if not all other umbrakinetic-type abilities. Things that account as dark forces go from the obvious, such as darkness, shadows, antimatter and gravity to things more conceptual and less notable, such as "evil" and corruption, and nothingness. Most of these don't necessarily symbolize evil, ungodliness and corruption, though those concepts can be used to empower it. Rihan can manifest, manipulate,and draw from external sources of it in a manner similar to any other element or state of matter;though it seems he prefers the characteristics of wind, Lightning and water. Rihan can even generate sound and fuse various elemental characteristics together to create even stronger ones. When an opponent comes into contact with this element in any form they are also attacked on a spiritual level; feeling as if their very essence being drained from them, though beings with strong soul wavelengths can lessen this effect.
Yamigun; Kuroryū no Sesshu( Dark Force Black Dragon's Rapacity):
- The darkness is a inescapable void that seeks to devour everything; even light. Rihan manifest a black smoke-like substance and begins spreading outward from his body; entrapping his targets and everything else within the vicinity. Slowly the darkness absorbs them, with extreme crushing force, and allows Rihan to regurgitating the remaining debris with equal or increased force. Due to this, the he can absorb physical matter and most attacks by sucking them into the darkness. Since the darkness absorbs all, Rihan is still vulnerable to attacks, that catch him off guard. This can cause him to be hurt more than usual depending on the attack(like delayed spells or explosives). 4-5 post cool down
Daijagan
Daijagan: Maō Atsu ( Eye of Fear: Demon Kings Pressure)
- When invoked Rihan's eyes gain a ripple-like pattern which spreads over the eyeball, with burning golden sclerae and irides, and a pattern of six tomoe. The most common usage that Rihan employees with this is to release his presence continuously, which will put pressure on the surroundings in the form of concussive shockwaves, actually affecting other physical objects besides living beings. The wave of pure concussive of sorts more often than not damages the surrounding environment at astounding speeds but also can repulse enemies away with incredible force. When concentrated at its highest point, a shockwave can even cause minor earthquakes by shaking the ground even disrupting enemy techniques if they are being cast at the time; long as they are slightly tangible. It also has been shown that light bursts of this can be used in order to tame or intimidate certain creatures, and in larger burst it is capable of knocking out weaker willed or severely weakened individuals unconscious without physical harm. Using this aspect allows Rihan to avoid having to fight with people weaker than himself; avoiding unnecessary conflict by ending a fight before it starts. However those with stronger wills can resist or even ignore this aspect of the ability. Use of this technique puts a great deal of strain on the Rihan if he pushes it to far, usually causing his eyes to bleed;temporary blinding him. (2-4 post cool down depending on use )
Daijagan: Kehai Hatsu (Eye of Fear: Presence Manifestation)
- A technique that allows Rihan to manifest his true power into the spiritual or mortal plane in the form of a avatar given shape due to his soul and will. It is usually only achieved by higher-class Demons, who have evolved to such a point where they've developed a form of intelligence and understanding unlike any other; in this sense, this technique can also represent a Demon's elevation to a higher state of being, becoming one of the most supreme of their kind. The construct assists Rihan in battle, growing in strength as he does. By default the manifestations anchored to him like an aura around his being,able to be summoned and dismissed subconsciously. It can even move and fight like him also, and uses larger versions of weaponry elemental abilities at a greater level as long as Rihan has the energy. By embedding it with a core it can even act separately from Rihan, and can still battle until its core has been destroyed. The manifestation can form musculature as well as make shift bones, progressively completing it until it develops into a full-bodied form, but to cut down on energy consumption Rihan usually restricts himself to summoning parts of the full avatar. Rihan can expand and mold it into various constructs;the full manifestation resembling a black humanoid dragon. Since it is formed through the materialization of Rihan's will, he is able to freely move around within the manifestations body as well as levitate inside of it,and can also leave its body entirely while maintaining it. While the materialization acts as a great defence against external attacks, anything coming out of its body will simply pass through it.
Rinen Sonzai Tamashiino Kage (Conceptual Existence: Soul Shade)
- Using his Daijagan, Rihan is able to project shadows of his soul into the invisible spirit world known as Ascendant Realm (also known as a throne world), which exists someplace beyond yet inherently near the other spiritual realms, perhaps in-between the space of dimensions or even below all of them together like an empty canvas on which all of creation is painted on. Due to this the world is generally impossible to accurately detect or visually perceive without astounding sensory skills or similar abilities. The shadows can operate independently of him, attacking and restraining target(s) or defending Rihan from harm. When shadow bodies are controlled together the Rihan is able to see through all of their eyes, thus registering six separate fields of vision at the same time. With this shared vision, the user can coordinate their attacks and provide defences for their blindspots. For this reason, the shadow bodies are strongest when used together, employing combination tactics, the element of surprise, and/or sheer overwhelming power to defeat their enemies. With both his Daijagan activated, Rihan was shown producing up to eight shadows at one time. Rihan's shadows are a little bit weaker than himself but do have some form of sentience. Even when detected, the shadows are immune to most forms of physical attacks apart from those that utilize strong spiritual wavelengths. The downside to this technique is that the Rihan's shadows, after a set period of time, automatically return to his body and are left temporarily unusable. The shadows can be partially combated by immobilising or sealing the body in a way that it cannot move, act, or be recalled to the Rihan's body. Although this does not truly defeat the shadow, it is effective at neutralising the immediate threat it poses in battle. (Each shadow last 4 post with a two post cool down each)
Transformation
Shinuchi Nurarihyon no Makihanrei(True Self: Embodiment of the Nurarihyon)
- Shinuchi is a heightened transformation created by Rihan in order to access the furthest depths of his inner power. In ancient times, its existence was the only known method of releasing the true power of the soul, but because it demanded complete mastery of ones Truth, it was an incredibly rare circumstance for any individual to ever achieve it. A being that slips thru reality. A demon who personifies dreams and fantasies. Your aware of him,but he's not really there and that makes you even more aware of his presence. When invoked, Rihan removes the boundaries between reality and illusion within his personal space. In essence manifesting a reality shaped by one's will around oneself. To a degree this allows the him to control his own state of existence, but it is normally active for only the briefest of moments. While the Rihan remains physically real while fighting, this technique is capable of turning any occurrence including injuries, while the technique is active, into mere "illusions." Should Rihan receive a fatal injury, he automatically fades away into his Ascendant Realm as though he were an illusion all along and returns back to reality once he has recovered. He only exists for as long as he is aware of himself; implying he is "everywhere and nowhere", meaning that if he believes that he exists somewhere, then he will. However if he cannot focus he will be unable to reform properly nor can he extend this ability to others without it taking a massive drain on his energy. (Last 5-6 post, 4 post cool down)
Mazoku Dai Kakusei(Inja Doragon'enperā (Demon Race Great Atavism Sage Dragon Emperor)
- When atavism (a trait that recurs in a descendant after skipping generations and even resulting in a reversion to the primitive characteristics of a remote ancestor) occurs as a result of a person deliberately rendering its genes a recessive trait until that code can express itself in a descendant strong enough to succeed it. Due to his overcoming of Ooguro Ryuuya( The Great Black Dragon) Bahamut Rihan has been able to manifest the power of the dragon. By self resonating with his soul, black flames are released and begin extending themselves like tendrils up and around Rihan's arms, injecting them with a heavy concentration (or coating) of this dark force , turning the area black, thus making the them denser and more formidable, and giving his physical attacks greater power. Rihan gains full-bodied black garment with black pants, gloves, and boots, over which he wears a flowing white robe with six black dragon markings across his chest and the familiar pattern of his clan symbol on his back Rihan's skin comes grey and his hair turns stark white, and a closed third eye emerges from his forehead. He also gains a forehead protecter-like appendage which emerges from the left side of his forehead, and had an upward curve on its right side. Several malleable orbs of Dark Force orbit him which he can use to attack and defend, and he gains the ability to use the dragons flames. (Last 7-10 post,5 post cool down)
Jaou Ensatsu Kokuryuuha (Dragon of the Darkness Flame)
- This is a powerful technique that summons black flames of Annihilation from the depths of the Netherworld and shaping it in the form of a dragon. There is an unusual element at the depths of the world with unmatched destructive capabilities that consumes all before it. For millennia, countless Demons sought to harness this power; it being the ultimate flame. None of them had succeeded until Makai appeared, and since his death few remember he possessed it. Now it is his son Rihan who carries this great power. It takes 5-6 post to forcibly brake the seal and 4 to fully invoke the flames. Spiritually-aware individuals in the vicinity will also begin feeling negative emotions such as cold, fear, or even despair. Once the flames are fully charged, its form materializes in a swirl of black flames around his arms. Upon release, the flames burst forth in an explosion described as having a mind of its own and thus difficult to evade once launched. The flame then proceeds to instantly incinerate just about anything in its path:even burning away at the soul and body of others. In the event that the Dragon turns back on Rihan, he is capable of absorbing its energy and thus greatly enhancing all of his abilities for a short period of time becoming the Dragon of the Darkness Flame
in a sense. After being fully released, the flames take the form of a giant dragon, composed entirely of black and purple flames. There are two drawbacks, however, due to the fact that this technique uses so much power and stamina Rihan's seal will be reinforced turning him back into a child,and allowing only use one of his separate techniques afterward. The second drawback is if the dragon and the seal react while Rihan has absorbed the darkness flame he will enter a berserk state where he would lose all sanity and destroy anything in his path; with his body becoming warped by the dragon within him.

Peak Conditioning
Rihans unprecedented physical fortitude comes from his demonic body, having "broken the conventional limits of the supernatural world", allowing him to perform impressive feats without the need of any enhancements. The end product result is that Rihan posses supernatural levels of physical ability; able to apply any amount of force behind his physical attacks without having to fear of damaging or destroying his body, as the durability it possesses ensures that he can go all out without having to worry. Due to his genes his body instinctively imprints on new experiences to lessen the chances of same injury happening again thus dramatically increasing his raw might after recovering from injuries.

An eldritch skill that's existed since time memorable, achieved by those who've, in the words of its users, "traversed and fully understood the very depths of the world"; to this extent, one can consider it to be a "form of understanding" involving territories allowed and outlawed by the laws of the natural world. Rihan can truly "see" the various energies and souls that form the spiritual,and physical worlds. This sight is extremely detailed, giving him various calculations on what he's sensing; this would include the levels of power within an area, the number of soul signatures, the color which denotes to the nature of their soul, possible fluctuations in the wavelength and ect. However, what makes this power truly great is that it can see through subjective forms of altering perception or ethereal beings. Meaning, it can tell him if a situation is false, true, or incomplete or if something ethereal is present.
This helps him discern the situation at hand with pure accuracy, it can even be extended for if he is able to focus. Rihan notes that due to his constant usage of it, he has reached a point where it becomes passive; a natural function of his body.
Rinen Sonzai ; Shin Kyōka Suigetsu ( Conceptual Existence; True Mirror Flower- Water Moon)
- All stances, at least in the physical sense of the idea, all derive their strength from the proper footwork. In order to resist one's enemy, even if their power is far greater than their very foe, a weak constitution will make such resistance fruitless and impossible. With a strong stance, one may defend against almost anything. When taken to a conceptual level, the stance can even anchor one's self to defend against fellow conceptual techniques. In order to resist being influenced by reality-warping spells or abilities, Rihan can naturally anchor or detach himself from reality, just as a master of martial arts anchors themselves to the ground with a strong stance and stands firm against an enemy's physical attack; much like the mountain that resists even the fiercest of winds. He is able to weather through spells and abilities that warp reality itself or even attempt to take control of his own reality. Of course, the weakness in such a skill lies in whether or not Rihan was able to anticipate the technique taking hold of him prior to its effects.
Master Martial Artist ::
- While not fully shown in his sealed forms, Rihan is extremely versatile in combat. He focuses at dealing the maximum amount of damage in the shortest time possible. His fighting style is called Shin'enken Ryū ( Abyss Dragon Fist) centers around incredible strength and speed, as well as excellent body control and movement. In addition to his naturally potent attacks Rihan can enhance his strikes with his power. To do this concentrates a heavy stream of energy to his limbs before then thrusting it at the intended target; the surge of energy is then released trough the body of the opponent in a chaotic fashion which brutally causing internal damage. A powerful attack, it can also can be focused on the five fingers to increase its power; taking the form of dragon-headed shrouds around his arms. Upon contact, a huge dragon skull shape is gouged into the surface behind the target.
Master Swordsman
- While hating the concept of having to engage in a unnecessary fight, Rihan is surprisingly a very proficient swordsmen. Kyouki no Tenchi Karyūsen (Madness of Heaven and Earth,Vortex Dragon Flash) is Rihans Iai signature sword style . To utilize this style he must empty his mind,and be formless,shapeless like water. If you put water into a cup,it becomes the cup. You put water in a bottle and it becomes the bottle. That water can flow,or it can crash. To be like water one must be able to function in any scenario they are thrown into and, react accordingly. Rihan is skilled enough to know when to speed up or slow down,when to expand and when to contract,when to remain flowing and when to crash. It is the awareness that both life and battle can be shapeless and ever changing that allows him to be able to adapt to those changes instantaneously and bring forth the appropriate solution. He must become unpredictable, and strike from his subconscious mind. His moves flow out of his individual essence,and thus follow no set rhythm or pattern. Even the most masterful opponent will fall from a strike that has no history or reference. Instead of meeting opponents head on when defending, assaults are foiled by using the blade to change the trajectory of such assaults, unbalancing the enemy and creating openings for swift counters. Offensively, jabs, superficial cuts and even thrusts are commonly employed as means to frustrate and exhaust enemies, before a decisive, more typical sword strike is used; this only holds true against those who cannot be defeated easily, though. A multitude of lesser opponents are normally bested with just one precise, devastating cut. In close combat the immense force of the enhanced slash cuts the air in front of it and creates a powerful vacuum in its wake as the deflected air rushes back into place. Any opponent to deflect or dodge the first swing will have a high chance of being subjected to this vacuum and be inexorably pulled closer to Rihan. Even a missed swing naturally leads Rihan into an accelerated spin. This in addition to the pulling force of the vacuum on both side results in a second strike that greatly dwarfs the first in power. This is best explained to the following indium: "Even if you avoid the fangs of the flying dragon the gusting winds strip away freedom of movement and the claws would rip you apart.
