| *Character: At a Glance*
Name: Maru Taishio (Is still called Lord Sesshoumaru by demons, as long as humans are not present) Meaning: Killing Perfection Nicks: Maru, Fluffy (Don't call him that to his face unless you are his mate, otherwise he'll kill you.) Title: Lord of the West ( Only to demons) Class: Full demon Race: Inu Position: President of "Taishio Models" Alliance: Neutral (Heading to good) Gender: Male Human Age: 25 Demon Age: 770 *Character: Human Visual* Height: 7'2" Weight: 250 lbs. Unique Features: Silver white hair, Amber gold eyes. Appearance: Thanks to the spell humans see him with the super long about almost knee-length silver/ivory-whitish colored hair with beautiful amberish golden/yellow eyes. But the pointy elf-like ears are gone. Along with the markings on his face and hands, and his tail. Overall: When you first meet him all he inspires from you is grandeur, then fright. Sesshoumaru can be scary if he puts his mind to it, hell he's scary even when he doesn't. He always speaks his mind, and doesn't care about consequence or who's feelings it hurts. As a prince, then a Lord, and now the owner and president of his own agency he's used to getting what he wants. Which makes him a bit spoiled. But he also has great hurt, which he hides. It's not easy for someone to see the feelings he hides, you have to be with him a long time to see the subtle changes in his face. As he always keep that emotionless mask on this will not be easy. He shows great ego, but even this is cracking, do to the fights he has lost to his brother, and the arm. He believes his father loved Inuyasha best, that also adds to the cracking in his ego. Although Sesshoumaru is typically viewed as the cold-hearted villain, he is much more than that. He is very powerful, arrogant, stoic, and commonly mistaken for a girl. He still travels and works with a frog-demon named Jaken, who is his retainer. Clothing Preference: For the office Maru keeps it totally uptown, stylish. He likes to stay up to date with the latest fashions but still only wears what he thinks is good for a man like him. He picks out the most expensive silk suits, only the latest styles, almost never wears a tie, but he does wear vests that match the suit. For more casual times he still like to wear silk dress pants, but now he wear them with silk polo-style shirts and casual sweater vests that match the pants. *Character: Humanoid Visual* Height: 7'2" Weight: 250 lbs. Unique Features: Silver white hair, Amber gold eyes. Appearance: He has super long about almost knee-length silver/ivory-whitish colored hair with beautiful amberish golden/yellow eyes. He can also be easily recognized by the markings on this face: a Prussian blue crescent moon, the two magenta stripes on each side of his cheeks, and the red markings on this eyelids. On his wrists are matching magenta stripes to the ones that are on his face. He also has pointy elvish look-alike ears and sharp fingernails that are claws. Overall: Everything is pretty much the same as before except with demons he can be even scarier and more deadly. Since demons remember the past. He has no problem showing them he is still the same Sesshoumaru. Even if it mean killing a few. He knows the laws enough to know that no body=no murder, and he can make a body disappear. Clothing Preference: His clothing is at best described as some sort of "kimono-ish" looking thing with an armor that slings on his left shoulder while a huge, white furry thing wraps around his right shoulder. I will call this as a tail. *Character: Demon Visual* Height: 22ft. Weight: 2 tons Unique Features: He's a 22 foot dog you want more unique.......Oo' Appearance: In his dog form, he retains the Prussian blue crescent moon on his forehead though the stripes on his cheeks merges and "wraps" around the edge of his jaw. His eyes go red and his ears become very flappy. His fur is white just like his hair though there are areas that look a bit gray. If you look at his form carefully, you'll notice that there's actually also an extra piece of fur that wraps around his right shoulder and then around his body. That's kinda interesting because as we all know, he's got that boa-look-alike thingy around his right shoulder in his human form. It makes me think that they're really the same thing except in his dog form, it's obviously bigger and more unruly which makes them look like white flames. He also has matching white "flames" around each of his paws. After he transforms, everyone else is basically only about the size of his paws. Even though he's already really big, he's actually believed by many fans to still be only a puppy. His father's dog form was much much larger- as shown on some memory clips and his massive tomb/bones- and because of this, there has been some contemplation about whether Sesshoumaru is a full-grown youkai yet. Overall: Nothing but fear can come from seeing him like this. Even if you are a powerful demon, you will still fear him. Needless to say he could kill you very easily if you are not a great fighter. Even his half brother Inuyasha had his problems with him like this. A human would not last a second. Although he has never used this form in the modern word. Clothing Preference: None *Character: Inner Basic* Personality: At first glance, he appears to be cold, calm, collected, and confident to the point of almost arrogant. He has also been mentioned by Jaken as someone who's a very proud person and no matter what it may look like on the outside, he'd actually be seething inside if he were to ever be made a fool of. His character is actually quite a mystery as you're never sure of what to expect from him. He may appear cold-hearted but his actions sometimes raises the question as to whether he really is that emotionless. He seems to be a man with few words...and when he does talk, there is no such thing as beating around the bush. He gets right to the point..blunt and clear. Sometimes, he may appear to seem sarcastic in his word choice especially when talking to Inuyasha. Not only is he straight with words, but he's also not one to hide behind anyone or send minions to do his dirty work. In fact, he's not one to do what you would call "sneaky" things or resort to "dirty" tactics at all- unlike, say Naraku. When looking at him, his whole being exudes a powerful aura and he carries himself as though he is above it all. He also isn't fond of humans and often look down upon them or "see them as insects" as Inuyasha once described. However he did revive a human girl "Rin", and is currently taking care of her. He also went so far as to rescue her from Naraku, he almost lost his perfect control of his emotions when he saw Rin on the ground, he almost went into his dog form, but stopped at the very last moment. But it was the first time we saw him clearly pissed. The second time was during the battle with Suikotsu and Jakotsu at Mnt. Hakurei, he lost control again and we could all see that he was pissed at the fact that Suikotsu was about to kill Rin. So while he may say he hates humans, he clearly doesn't. Fear(s): *Loosing another fight to his half-brother. Secret(s): His weak stomach was caused by a spell from a Dark Miko when his mother was pregnant with him. The spell was cut short by his father killing the dark miko, and since his mother was fine no one ever found out it had affected the pup within her. (Only a miko or a witch can see the effect on his stomach made by the spell, which shows up as a dark miasma when he is hungry or eating.) Vulnerability: His stomach is quite weak, as he can only eat rabbits that have been feed by a strict diet of carrots only. If he eats anything else he will go into major anaphylactic shock (allergic reaction). After this happens he will need a specially made potion to help him get rid of it. But he will be weak for a while, as his demon healing can not heal his stomach for reasons unknown. Good Habit: Is always clean, he has to have everything around clean and orderly. (Even though some might put this as a bad habit. XD) Always does what Tensaiga asks him too. Bad Habit: Kills at will, has almost no sense of regret. Very little patience, although you can't see it. Cause he always looks regal and expressionless in appearance. Hobbies: Reading ancient texts, Keeping himself well informed of everything. Prized Possession: His Lands...Toukijin...Rin *Character:Existence* Origin: Western Lands Lives in: Tokyo Japan Housing: White Heron Castle Love Life: Tamara Future Love: Tamara Social Life: When he comes into a room, every one knows it. Family: Inu No Taishio (Father--Resurected); Inuyasha (Half Brother); Kagome (Sister-in-Law) Friend(s): Only some special people in his inner circle. Rivalry(s): Inuyasha, Naraku, (Anyone else who tries to harm what's his) *Character: Combatant* Weapon(s): When he was able to get a hold of it, he was actually quite adept at using Tetsusaiga. His secondary sword called Toukijin. It was crafted from the fang of the demon that broke the Tetsusaiga and is quite powerful in its own. Sesshoumaru is the only one able to hold it without the sword gaining control of his mind. Everyone lse had gotten controled by it. Battle Skill Specialty: *The Style: When engaged in battle, Sesshoumaru is always cool and calm. His thoughts are collected even during difficulties, and his body moves as though it requires no effort on his part. His maneuvers almost seem to be a part of his instinctual reflex especially since you never see him hesitate or fret about which move to make. Moreover, he rarely shows any emotions while fighting, and he's unfazed even when hit. Reading someone's reactions in a battle can often help a fighter analyze the opponent's moves and in this sense, it makes Sesshoumaru an even more difficult opponent to anticipate. Regardless of what he may be doing or looking at, Sesshoumaru always seems to know what's happening around him. He's extremely observant of his surroundings and reacts very quickly to respond to them- it's as though nothing ever surprises him. In fact, the only time I remember him being distinctly "surprised" during battle was when Inuyasha was taken over by his youkai blood- and even then, he reacted quickly. Because Sesshoumaru always have full control and use of his body, this tends to put him at a far advantage in a battle. His speed is incredible and he dodges attacks so easily it's like second nature to him. He's capable of moving faster than the eye can see and this often takes his enemies by surprise. In one blink of an eye, he can be in an entirely different point of space from a moment ago. Giving his speed even more advantage is his capability to control his body by levitating himself and maneuvering mid-air with the same kind of grace. From mid-air, he can continue to attack while making it difficult for his opponents to reach him. Most of the time that we get to see Sesshoumaru in action is when he fights his half-brother, Inuyasha. Unlike Inuyasha whose brash methods of fighting often consists of just straightforward slashing and attacking with the use of sheer strength and his Tessaiga, Sesshoumaru doesn't bother with all that. Instead, he utilizes his speed to gracefully move out of the attacks (while sometimes looking dispassionate or even bored) until he either feels like fighting back or he sees an opportunity for him to execute an attack that would completely smack his opponent down. *The Dokkasou Technique: Dokkasou basically translates as "Toxic Flower Claw." This is probably one of the first techniques we see him use, and throughout the series, we get to see some various forms or versions of it. Like Inuyasha, Sesshoumaru also has claws- but unlike Inuyasha, Sesshoumaru has more use for his claws than just slashing. By using his claws, he can execute strong poisonous attacks on his opponent- which is so powerful that it is capable of melting his target (and pretty much everything else around it). Upon the attack, Sesshoumaru can also often be heard exclaiming "Dokkasou" or announcing that he's about to annihilate the enemy with his Dokkasou. As mentioned, we get to see various different methods of how he actually executes the poison attack. Sometimes he just does the dashing forward and swiping at his opponents act while other times he may stab his clawed hands in the air and grab a hold of his target, aiming to melt and poison with his touch. He can also actually "spray" his poison from a distance without touching the person that he's attacking. That's what we see him do with Kagome at the beginning episodes inside his father's tomb with the Tessaiga. He basically stood from afar and raised his hand, then releasing his poison in the form of what looked like "spraying." The result? Everything sizzled away and buried Kagome beneath a pile of melted poisonous goo. We can usually see when he's about to use his poison because his whole hand starts to glow green. I'm guessing that it signifies the poison gathering at his claws ready for usage as I don't think his hands are poisonous at all times. It was never mentioned where he got all that poison in his body and whether it was an inherited ability or something that he trained for. However, we do know that because he's a poison user, most of the poisons don't really affect him as he was heard to have claimed in the later episodes. *The Whip: Aside from using his claws for executing poisonous attacks, he's also able to make some sort of a whiplash look-alike thing come out of his fingers. It's basically some greenish white swirl that looks and works like a whip as you see in the picture. I'm not sure how it comes out (it just does) but he appears to control it with his two forefingers and doesn't seem to take much effort on his part in executing it. At the beginning of the series, Sesshoumaru used it to reprimand the humongous youkai that often appeared with him until the youkai was sucked into Miroku's air rip. Convenient for taming a pet, perhaps? In general, however, this method is often useful for attacking from afar as it's able to stretch very long. Utilizing it to fight against multiple enemies can also be effective as was seen at the very beginning when we were first introduced to Sesshoumaru's character. Being surrounded by a pack of wolves, he executed an attack with the whip although it appeared to be a little more elaborate than usual. He began by twirling and spinning his body while using some hand movements which sent out what looked like a bunch of green blades. These "blades" then literally sliced and shredded all the wolves around him into pieces. The battle was over way before it began. I've also noticed that he uses this particular method a lot when fighting with Inuyasha...and usually it comes after some sort of sarcastic demeaning comment. I'm beginning to think he uses it for the purpose of making fun of Inuyasha. (laughs) No, okay...that just crossed my mind only because when he attacks Inuyasha with the "whip", it seems to make Inuyasha look a bit more inferior than usual. That probably has to do with the fact that Sesshoumaru often strikes Inuyasha from up in the air somewhere while Inuyasha isn't even able to get close to him. The usual scenario is Sesshoumaru "slapping" Inuyasha around with that whip-like motion and Inuyasha being too busy blocking to even have time to be attacking back. It doesn't actually do any real damage during these times, but Sesshoumaru still seems to enjoy it quite a bit....hence my little "making fun of Inuyasha" theory. ; Battle Skill Flaw: He underestimates his prey, which leads him to get into a lot of trouble, like the battle in his father's tomb with Inuyasha which caused him to loose an arm. Element: Poison *Character:Actual Life* History: Sesshoumaru is Inuyasha's half-brother. That is, they have the same all-powerful demon father, but Sesshoumaru has a demon mother, whereas Inuyasha has a human mother. When Inuyasha revived from his 50 year sleep. Sesshoumaru wanted something known as the Tetsaiga, an almighty sword forged from the fang of their deceased father. Sesshoumaru knows it is in their father's tomb (aka body, mind you their father's about 50-100 feet tall), but he can't get there and knows Inuyasha was left with the key to their father's tomb. Inuyasha's like wtf, but Sesshoumaru extracts an orb from Inuyasha's eye, blinding his one eye. In the pain and confusion, Inuyasha hates himself for being weaker than his older brother and regrets his human side, which he thinks makes him weak. They finally get to the tomb. There are 2 swords- Tetsaiga, destined for Inuyasha, and the Tensaiga, destined for Sesshoumaru. The Tetsaiga takes life in the name of humanity, the Tensaiga gives life and healing to the weak . . . The Two Brothers Clash. Sesshoumaru is pissed-as-all-hell by now. He can't hold the Tetsaiga, because he cannot love a human . . . Inuyasha's love for humans is what allows him to draw it. His father's love for his human mother is what made him create the Tetsaiga, and what made him entrust it to Inuyasha, so he would protect other humans with it. He granted Sesshoumaru a healing sword so that he would change his ways and also have no way of hurting people. Sesshoumaru has his arm cut off by Inuyasha in this battle. Latter and has a human arm replaced with it so he could hold the sword and "teach" Inuyasha how to use it properly (by killing 100 demons with one stroke). In the end it's Inuyasha with the Tetsaiga. and Sesshoumaru with the Tensaiga. After yet another battle with Inuyasha about Tetsaiga, Sesshoumaru is heavily injured, Tensaiga saves his life and transported him into a forest. He lays himself down underneath the shade of a tree, regretting being injured and feeling useless. A young human girl (maybe around 6 or 7) passes by and notices him. She stops in shock and can't take her eyes off of him, she is so intrigued by him and so curious. He is after all a magical looking creature, with his flowing white and red robes and his long silver hair and yellow eyes and ok I'll stop^^;; So, everyday she comes to him and brings him food, water, and such. He can't understand why she is doing this for him, and he begins to feel something that he's never felt before . . . he tells her to stop, but she just smiles at him innocently and laughs- nothing can keep her from this treasure of hers, this mystery that she found. She comes to him on day all bruised. He looks at her and asks her who did that to her. She never answers him but smiles all happy that he cared enough to ask. Later she leaves and he gets better and leaves as well. It is not said how much time passed but it had to be at least a day. Sesshoumaru and Jaken walk through the woods and then Sesshoumaru stops when he smells the blood of a human that smells familiar to him. He walks into the forest and sees Rin lying on the ground in front of him slashed, gorged, ripped up, her mouth hanging open, frozen in the scream she made as the wolf demons had torn her apart. Jaken laughs and says 'What a useless, worthless creature' . . . Sesshoumaru (driven by the sword) draws the Tensaiga and uses it to revive her. Although he says he did it to test Tensaiga. Jaken gasps in horror, wondering what possessed his master. Sesshoumaru holds the grateful girl in his arms, saying, 'This sword ... it has made me feel compassion, it drew me to save the life of a human...why...' From that day on Rin travels with Sesshoumaru and Jaken, all over. As of resent episodes it has been shown that he no longer wishes to kill his little brother, although he keep saying he does. Maybe it's because he finally realizes after all his battles with Inuyasha that the hanyou is worthy of his father's demon blood. Now he just has to train his little brother, and the only way to do that is to keep Inuyasha believing that he still wants to kill him. In one instance where Inuyasha was in his full out of control demon form, Sesshoumaru came to supposedly investigate if he really was a full demon; but ended up stopping Inu's rampage when he realized he would kill himself in that state of mind. After Inuyasha was knocked out, Kagome ran to the hanyou's fallen form, while Miroku ran over and asked him why he hadn't killed Inuyasha when he clearly had the chance too. Sesshoumaru has to think about what to say, but finally says "I will slay Inuyasha, eventually, but what would be the point now, he doesn't even know who he is." Sesshomaru then walks away. Kagome is left thinking about the fact that maybe Sesshoumaru likes Inuyasha more than he shows. Sesshoumaru traveled from that day on as he normally did with Rin and Jaken. Then the miko made her wish. A wish that left Sesshoumaru in a place he had never been in before. He almost killed her when he found out it had been her. Only Inuyasha stopped him. Needless to say it took even Sesshoumaru a time to adjust. But he finally did. One later he was discovered by a modeling agency. He figured out that it was an easy way to make money, so he started working as a model. After a while everyone from Paris to New York wanted to have him. Sesshoumaru of course had it all planned out. He knew the only way to truly make it in this modern world was to gain money. So he used his intelligence while working his looks. He studied laws, business and government while doing all that. Finally he had enough to start his own modeling agency. He started it from the ground up, and made a killing at it. Recruted the best and only the best (as always). Now two years after the wish. His agency is world known. The best come from all over and pay top dollar for his models and although he still does pictures from time to time, he pretty much keeps to managing his agency. He now lives the lifestyle of a celebrity. He is known by the whole word as the in ultimate male beauty. Truth be told he enjoys it, even if he says he doesn't. Sesshoumaru enjoys his life, though sometimes he still feels the familiar loneliness. He knows that most of the world and the people he has surrounded himself with are fake. He does not lie to himself into believing other wise. He knows the only true friend he has is Jaken. Though that does not offer him any consolation. At least he still had his little Rin. She kept his spirits up. She did not remember her past, and only thought Sesshoumaru as her true father. At first this had freaked him out, but he went along with it for reasons even he did not know. The world bough this too, they painted him as a loving, single father. He placed Rin in the best Private school, with the best of everything given to the little girl. He did spoil her rotten. Everyone knew that. No one dared to tell him of course. Though thankfully due to some unknown reason that no one understood. Rin never got the evil head some kids get. She still remained the same loving, sweet little girl from before And that's the way Sesshoumaru likes her too be. Current Event: Running "Taishio Modeling Agency". Raising Rin. |
