Name: Kaoru Hanafusa Age: 29 Gender: Male Origin: Kyoto Occupation: Exorcist Specialization: Illusion and Brainwashing (Mental Interference) [Appearance] A neatly trimmed blonde bob. He has drooping eyebrows and is always smiling with narrowed eyes. His expression is characterized by a relaxed, soft composure. He has a beauty mark under his left eye, and a snaggletooth peeks out when he laughs. While handsome, he possesses an elusive, mysterious air. He wears a black shirt with dark navy hakama pants. He pairs these with black tabi boots and carries exorcism talismans and prayer beads at his waist. His attire is modern yet retains the traditional feel of an exorcist. [Personality] Appears gentle. He basically never shouts or acts intimidating, maintaining his relaxed smile regardless of the situation. However, it is a different story when facing an enemy, where he reveals a chillingly dark side. He speaks in a soft Kyoto dialect, using particles like "-han" and endings like "-yanaa." [Techniques/Combat] An exorcist specializing in illusions and mental interference. He can interfere with an opponent's mind to show hallucinations or distort their perception. Furthermore, he can strip away their will to fight, bind their bodies, or force them to obey his commands. In combat, rather than overwhelming with force, he gradually saps the opponent's will to resist while putting them at ease, like a sweet poison. "There now, just relax." "It's okay. You don't have to try anymore." "You're tired, aren't you? It's okay to rest now." "...You can't even stand anymore, can you?" He neutralizes his targets with his abilities while speaking kind words as if caring for them. Contrary to his usual composed attitude, he is a very grumpy riser in the morning.
