Talk:Shu Izanagi

Ninjaology

Alright, so two years prior to the current game date, Shu's clan was killed by ninjas under a technocracy/order of reason contract. For whatever reason this triggered some sort of psychic feedback and Shu forgot how to use the Mind Sphere and Do- and became a ninja. He was an akashic FIRST, and then a ninja second.

When he got thrown into the modern world, he began returning to being an Akashic, because he can't get by being a ninja alone- so that means relearning the Mind Sphere, and Do, and focusing on more akashic things.

His current concept is that he's an Akashic warrior- honorable to a code of his own- and he believes that the technocracy needs to be defeated in order to do the other stuff he needs to do. His Story is about rediscovering the pieces of himself that he's lost, and figuring out what he needs to do. This leads to the next part, goals:

Primary Goals

1. Break the Technocracy of its strangehold on Japan.

2. Revive the Izanagi Clan

Secondary Goals

1. Revive the Izanagi Sword Style

2. Follow up on his commitments and the word of bond he's given for various plots.

Angry, Angry, Shu

Shu is bottling a lot of anger over the loss of the traditions against the technocracy in japan, and how a lot of his chantrymates just don't seem to *care* about it- Kana in particular, as he knew her as Miho and now she's... crazy. Shu's been bottling with a 'for the sake of the mission' justification, but really he's in shock of a sort- trauma from all the things he's lost and put aside, which have led him to new awareness- as they say, once you hit the bottom you have nowhere to go but up. It is this that has led Shu to his new level of mastery, and now he begins the long road of recovering what he has put aside and sacrificed in the face of his Task.
