Full Name: Kyle Morgan
Nicknames: n/a
Age: 15

Weight: ? (underweight)
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Alliance: Neutral
Home: Void City, Dimensional Island
Franchise: n/a
Physical Description: Kyle looks fairly average compared to most people on the island, though his peculiar way of dressing and his odd hairstyle is enough to pick him out in a crowd. His hair is a rather stunning shade of green, and the way it was cut makes it look like someone was trying to do a perfectly straight cut while leaving some bangs, but instead it just ended up rather choppy. His eyes are the same green shade as his hair. Kyle tends to lean on the lean side of things, and actually doesn’t have a lot of muscle. As far as his clothing goes, he tends to wear muted colors, such as faded khaki browns and white, and never anything too casual. Typically, some sort of white shirt with a faded brown vest over it and faded brown pants usually held up by a black belt. The most casual part of this outfit would probably be a worn pair of tennis shoes Kyle wears.
Kyle’s shadow normally looks like any other shadow, but there’s times when it acts oddly. Sometimes it will writhe in the presence of intense light energy, or at times it will laugh at you.
At times when Kyle is possessed by Oni, his appearance will slightly change. The most noticeable differences are the growth of long horns from his head, his ears changing to a pointed shape, and the growth of a long prehensile tail. At this time, Kyle’s eyes change color to a glowing red color, and red ringlike markings appear around Kyle’s wrists and neck. The mark of Oni, consisting of four triangles, one right side up and three upside down ones arranged underneath the upright triangle, appears on the back of Kyle’s hands. When this occurs, Kyle has no control over himself anymore.
Weapons: Kyle doesn’t use any weapons, mainly due to inexperience with weapons of any kind, but also due to his reluctance to fight unless he’s put in the utmost of danger. Oni usually does most of the fighting for Kyle anyways.
Abilities/Powers: As a normal human, Kyle should have no powers at all. However, his blood pact with Oni grants him access to the same powers Oni has when possessing his body. This amounts to essentially controlling shadows and using them to fight. Because of how Oni’s possessing his shadow, though, his aura reads as very dark.
Worth mentioning here are the exact terms of Kyle’s blood pact with Oni. The pact was very specific about the kind of people it could be made with. Because Kyle was called Oni’s “human” host in the making of the pact, only humans can take on that burden. The pact binds Oni to the shadow of the host, which doesn’t give him direct control, so long as the host possesses the will-power to repel him. However, even if a human were to take on the pact, only a non-light aligned human could do so, and it would require the agreement of all involved parties.
Skills: Despite his non-fighting ability and lack of strength, Kyle is actually quite nimble and has fairly good reflexes. Had it not been for Oni, he might have actually grown into quite the fighter. The potential’s still there, but just like how he’s not likely to use Oni’s powers, he’s not likely to really use this fighting potential he has.
Personality: Kyle is of the timid, soft spoken type. He hates causing anyone any sort of problem, and doesn’t like getting others involved in his problems. The amount he goes out of his way to keep people from inconveniencing themselves with him is almost infuriating. His personal justification is that there’s no reason to get others involved with his problems, they’re his alone. Really, Kyle is what happens when people take “I have to do this myself” to the extreme. Because of his willingness to help others, he can be a bit of a pushover and can be easily tricked by manipulating that (as he was once, which caused all of his problems in the first place.)
History: Kyle was born on the Island, and has always lived on the island. He had no special powers, really, being just a normal human. Had he never met Oni, he would have just gone about his way like the rest of the normal humans on the island, never getting involved with the crazy antics of those superpowered freaks that were always getting normal people killed.
When Kyle was 10, he encountered an injured demon, who explained that his name was Oni, and that he’d escaped to the island after being defeated by an evil demon named Kappa. After being explained that he only needed a human’s life force to return back to full strength (something he’d be able to get just by possessing a human’s shadow for a short period of time), Kyle was convinced into making a blood pact with the demon. Kyle had no idea of Oni’s true intentions, and went home to introduce his mother to their new friend.
It ended badly. About thirty seconds after entering their home and introducing his mother to Oni, Kyle’s mother figured out this was a bad idea and attempted to pull him outside. Oni reacted and cut her throat, showering Kyle in a spray of blood. Then Oni decided that Kyle needed to be taught a lesson about respect, and disemboweled the woman before hanging her from the ceiling fan. Kyle had still been standing there, staring at the spectacle, when his father came home from work. The event ended up being so traumatic that Kyle doesn’t even remember what happened that day now, only that his mother died and Oni was the one who killed her.
Over the next five years, Kyle and his father did whatever they could to get Oni extracted from Kyle’s shadow, but failed each time because of the blood pact Oni had set up with Kyle. Eventually, Kyle began to become rather withdrawn because of the pain he’d brought on because of his own mistake. His relationship with his father began to become rather strained, and they stopped talking to each other.
Eventually, after three years, Oni had gained enough strength that he could temporarily possess Kyle’s body at times. Kyle began blacking out at random times, waking up sometimes even days after the blackout, and almost always in places he didn’t recognize. Oni refused to explain what was happening, but Kyle started figuring it out, especially once he realized that at the very least, he’d have one on the full moon. Oni was possessing his body. It scared Kyle, and drove him further into depression.
A couple more years passed. Kyle had gotten to the point that he tried to avoid talking to people if at all possible, and tried to just be another person in the crowd. He’d started seriously considering suicide, held back by the fact that Oni would take his body and use it as his own new body the moment he died, and Kyle wanted to hope that there was still some way he could get Oni away. Of course, Oni was telling him nothing. It was only after Kyle blacked out and ended up at the Temple of Balance did things start going well for him… ‘course, time will only tell how well that works out.

Franchise: n/a (Has ties to the Continuing Saga, and is most likely from the Continuing Saga’s universe, but does not actually appear in the Continuing Saga itself.)
Physical Description: In his true form as a demon, Oni is a large lupine creature, with most of his proportions being similar to those of a fox or wolf. He stands upright like a human, however. His entire body is covered with dark blue fur. His head is foxlike, with two long ears much like a fox's and highly expressive green eyes. On his forehead, there is a marking known as the Mark of Oni, which consists of three upside-down red triangles underneath one right-side up one. He has a long neck with two red ringlike markings around it. His hands are larger than normal, with four opposable digits on each hand. Each finger is tipped with a large, savage claw that's about as long as the finger itself when fully extended. On the back of the hand is the Mark of Oni, while around his wrists are two of the red rings. His feet are similar to a wolf's, and are tipped with the same savage claws. Extending from Oni's hips is a long tail that is around seven feet itself, and is tipped with a large tuft of fur. Going down Oni's spine are several curved bony spikes.
In his form as Kyle's shadow, he normally resembles Kyle himself, as in that form, he uses the least amount of energy as he can. When exerting more energy, he resembles his true form a bit more, but he still is quite clearly a shadow.
Weapons: Oni uses no weapons, preferring to use the claws of his shadow and true forms to fight. He’s actually not all that physically strong, and instead uses his own smarts instead of strength to fight.
Abilities/Powers: Oni is a Puppetmaster Demon, which should give you some clue to what his powers are. His powers involve controlling people in various ways. His most effective method of controlling people is one of his most dangerous. If he enters a soulgaze with someone (which is initiated by getting direct eye contact with the involved party), he can discern their true name (also known as a “soul name.”) By using this, he can control someone and force them into becoming his servant. He can do this without a soul name (as he did once to several hundred people when he was at his full strength), but it’s a weaker form of control that someone with a strong mind or will can break free off. Oni isn’t capable of any of these powers while in shadow form and can only use them while possessing Kyle.
Oni is also capable of controlling shadows, manipulating them to serve his means. In fact, his “strings” that he uses to control others are made of shadows themselves. This is one power he can use while in shadow form.
When separated from a host, Oni is capable of taking a form that looks like a smaller, cuter version of his true form. This form exists only for manipulation and works damn well, too.
Skills: Oni’s good at figuring out how people tick and is pretty good at picking out their anxieties. He’s no therapist, though, and only uses this to manipulate others.
Personality: Oni is a manipulative bastard. That’s the quick, easy way to describe his personality. He’s sadistic, manipulative, and knows it. He’s smart too, and 99% of the time, he won’t say something to directly inconvenience him. He’s rather arrogant, though, and doesn’t know when to give up most of the time.
History: Once upon a time, a puppetmaster demon managed to take control of a mountain pass in Japan. Like many puppetmaster demons, he never used his own name, and instead stole one off of a demon from local folklore called “oni”. He then took control of the people of the region and kept them under his control for hundreds of years. One day, another, rival puppetmaster demon appeared, calling himself Kappa (he now goes by Larry). The demon had come to actually free the people of the pass. Oni and Kappa fought, and ended up killing each other. Oni escaped into the dimensional void, while Kappa was forced to possess a keychain and wait for a human to codepend on.
Oni ended up finding a new host quickly enough. After taking the form of an absolutely adorable injured little fox/demon, Oni was found by a naive boy named Kyle who was easily tricked into making a blood pact. The blood pact bound Oni to Kyle’s shadow instead of his body like Oni had been hoping, but the shadow line had been the only way to convince Kyle to do it. Upon Kyle’s arrival back home, Oni demonstrated that he wasn’t going to play around, brutally murdered Kyle’s mother, explaining that he’d do this to every single one of Kyle’s friends and family until Kyle gave in.
Things went on like this for five years until Oni met two peculiar beings. One was named Him and wished for a man named Gantz to be captured and brought to him. The other was named Nicholas Flamel and only wished for Gantz dead. Oni took on both their offers, in case he accidentally ended up killing the involved person. Oni managed to get Kyle to the Temple of Balance, where he heard Gantz would be appearing soon, and then injured him badly enough that whoever would show up there would be spurned into helping the injured child… which was exactly what Oni wanted.
