PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
PHYSIQUE: Often described as a scarecrow, Yoshi is a thin, and tall young man standing about five feet, and ten inches tall. Though most remain in the dark about Yoshi's height as he tends to stand hunched forward with his hands in his pockets as if too lazy to stand erect.
HAIR / EYES: Both hair, and eyes hold a dark hue wth faint bags hanging under his eyes indicating a trend of insomnia or lack of sleep. These dark eyes often have a bored gaze hanging off them as if uninterested by the world around him. Not motivated enough to keep up with current styles, his black hair is usually cut short enough so that a running a hand through it is sufficient enough to style it, if even that.
ABNORMALITIES: A constant appearance of fatigue graces his face in the form of constant dark bags under his eyes despite if he has gotten enough sleep, or not. Other abnormalities are no more than a few tattoos scattered along his body such as both forearms branded with a half sun, and half the kanji for 'insight' meaning to be brought together to form the whole tattoo.

+ Persuasive - Bored/Disinterested
At one time, Yoshimune was a bright, and cheerful young boy enthralled by the supposedly magical word of gods, youkai, and many other creatures that lived in myth, and folklore. For as far back as he could remember, Yoshimune had always lived at the shrine with his grandfather being spoiled by wild tales about the godly, and supernatural.
Each day would end with a story after all the chores, and duties around the shrine had been finished, with all of which some how ended with their family shrine being a focal point. That it had some some sort of mystical importance related to the story told that day. Though this sort of life was not to last as the magic seemed to fade from his life as Yoshimune grew older following the death of his grandfather.
For weeks, and weeks young Yoshimune had prayed to all of the gods, and supernatural creatures from his grandfather's stories; to any that would listen to his pleas to bring back the old man. And, yet he was never answered. The magic had faded, and those beings whom called legend, and folklore home had turned their backs on the poor child... The only thing left for him to do was to turn his back on the world he once knew.
After spending the rest of his childhood with a series of aunts and uncles, Yoshimune has returned home to the family shrine which has fallen into disarray over the years from neglect. His spiritual side has long since died meaning he merely sees the old shrine as a place to live, and use to make a buck, or two to survive on. Currently living in the Sugaware Family shrine, Yoshimune peddles cheap trinkets, and charms that supposedly ward off evil spirits, or promote good fortune, Though even if he can talk a person into buying these little trinkets, he does not believe in the effects that he claims they have.
He has grown in to a stubborn, close minded young man who completely rejects the strange, and spiritual side of the world, Both these traits are so sturdy that Yoshimune wouldn't even believe in any god, youkai, or any sort of oddity even if it stood in front of him slapping him in the face. The young man most likely would attempt to persuade the being into believing that it didn't truly exist, or that its so called abilities were nothing more than a cheap parlor trick. Secretly though there is still a part of the young boy in him who wishes to believe in the legends of old that he used to love so much.
TOOLS & ITEMS
ITEM NAME: Electric Hand-fan
ITEM DESCRIPTION: This is merely a small, cheap, electric fan used to keep oneself cool during even the most hottest days especially when you're standing around outside selling useless charms. It is pale blue in color, and cylindrical in shape with three spinning blades on one end; being the perfect shape to fit into the palm of your hand with the least amount of effort.
SPECIALTIES
MONK
In years long since passed, Yoshimune's grandfather was a well known exorcist who'd hand out charms, or blessing that'd keep bad spirits, and negative energies away from a person. In comparison to his grandfather, Yoshimune is just a salesmen in the sense that he peddles the same charms yet doubts if not bluntly doesn't believe in the desired effects they're supposed to have. Despite his lack of belief, Yoshimune is still very knowledgeable about the folklore, and legends concerning many gods, and oddities.

You will first put a description of the specialty. This should be related to the Gift your character has, or one of the Oddities your character was affected by. It should not include everything your character can or cannot possibly do. The description should be just vague enough that a person wouldn't know what your character can do, but specific enough that a person will know what they might eventually be able to do.
Capabilities:
- LEVEL 0: Every Specialty level up unlocks one more capability. These are your abilities. They are more specific than a Specialty, but don't write a book just to describe one capability.
