★ Folkmore Roles & Attributes ★

Skills:
Combat - He attacks very quickly and very precisely, being very knowledgeable in swordplay, and has a flashy flair in his manner of attack, giving poses and what may be generally taken as taunts. Dodges reflect gymnastic-like qualities, from flips, to cartwheels, and spinning out of harm's way. Yukari is said to be the only vassal with enough skill and strength to kill a King.

High Pain Tolerance - Yukari's ability to withstand pain is very high, and takes even deep gashes in stride, able to continue pushing forward despite injuries.

Pilot - Yukari can fly a helicopter very well.

Intelligence - Yukari has displayed that he is very observant, has a fantastic memory, as he is able to recite many things from memory with ease and perfection, and is tactical, planning his actions based on the information he obtains. He seems to be very skilled in whatever task he performs.

Housework - Yukari is said to be fantastic at both cleaning and cooking.

Skin Care - Yukari is well-versed on personal care and beauty regimens.

Canon Abilities:
Green Aura - An Aura obtained by serving under the Green King. He is able to manipulate large amounts of electricity, via himself or his sword. The electricity varies in intensity based on intent, including explosive levels. Yukari's electricity tends to be purple, as opposed to the typical green of Jungle.

Colourless Aura - This Aura varies per person and is obtained by serving under the Colourless King. Yukari's Aura reflects the Colourless Kings's Colourless Ability by a sense of Clairvoyance in which he can see parts of the future and act upon it, though probably not quite as powerful, as well as an ability to defy physics, such as standing sideways on a wall and being able to run up buildings. He can also use his Colourless Aura as an extension of himself and use it for attacks and defense. The extension tends to be silvery-purple.

Role: Familiar
Role Qualities/Attributes: What will they manifest as this role? In civilian form, Yukari will have permanent Black-Backed Jackal ears and a tail. The Black-Backed Jackal will be the easiest animal for Yukari to transform into, with traces of purple and blue in its fur. He'll be able to speak in his animal forms.
Role Reasoning:While Yukari has a love for the chaotic, he is still, ultimately, a follower. And what he truly loves is not necessarily the chaos, but the beauty within it. He has been on both on the side of good and bad, only wishing to see what the results may be of the desired path. Stirring things up is a specialty of his, but he also finds it much more fun to follow others' paths and dreams, helping them come to fruition. Whatever that means for everyone else, or sometimes even himself, is of no concern to him. He's truly in it for the ride. Not to mention the idea that he can serve either Myth or Legend is very akin to serving Kings back in his homeworld, and Yukari always took pride in being a vassal

OPTION 2 QUESTIONS (PICK 4-5) 100-300 WORD LIMIT EACH:

What is the most important and defining relationship(s) in your character's life and why?
Ichigen, the Colourless King, is by far the most defining relationship Yukari has ever had. Ichigen took him in, mentored him, and gave great amounts of empathy to both of his students. He encouraged Yukari to keep growing, and taught him about harmony. Even though Yukari grew tired of Ichigen's ideals, he did grow exceptionally fond of the Colourless King. Ichigen encouraged Yukari to allow himself to be drawn to that which resonates with him and to be himself. However, Ichigen often pushed Yukari to do things he wasn't necessarily comfortable with, such as making him mentor his younger clansman because he believed Yukari could benefit from it. Ultimately, this drives the nail in the coffin for which path Yukari takes, which is to turn on his King and mentor and to seek a new course, a new beauty. Ichigen later admitted that he did not show Yukari the love he needed the most and came to regret it.

However, the relationship he comes to have with the Green Clan seems to bring something warm out of Yukari. He expresses sentiments to both Nagare and Sukuna, wherein he says he very much enjoyed their path together, and even taking Sukuna in as his own child at the end of it all. The sort of love that he did not get with the Colourless King may have been being seen for who he truly was and not trying to be forced into a box. He is seen and acknowledged, flaws and all. And so, he shares a bond with them that sparks something more paternal within Yukari.

If you could give your character a Taylor Swift playlist, which songs would be on it and what would they represent about your character?
Bad Blood represents Yukari's betrayal of the Colourless King, and Kuro by extension. Yukari's concern for harming others is clearly very little, and so he stings others in the path of his actions, and makes others bitter and resentful towards him.

Long Live represents Yukari's will to live with passion, and that he sees endless possibilities for the future. He chooses to break the norms and wreak havoc on the things that others feel comfortable in, pressing everyone's limits to see the beauty within. Despite everyone's retaliations, he sees perfection.

I Knew You Were Trouble reflects Yukari's relationships, both giving and taking. The distance he keeps between himself and others, as well as his lack of concern, makes him problematic in many situations. Even his deepest bonds he may mourn, but never regrets his actions. And similarly, he sees these possibilities when he serves others.

Blank Space refers to Yukari's reckless passions, willing to cause chaos wherever he steps just to see the results. Good or bad, he doesn't mind making the world burn to see the ends. His deceiving beauty makes him the nightmare dressed like a daydream. And the 'name' he serves seems to always be temporary.

Brand New World shows Yukari's desire to always find something new in the beauty of the day to day, and to be a catalyst for such things. He isn't ashamed to stumble and fall, and always rises back up to meet the next challenge.

Firefly shows Yukari's longing for beauty and to be beautiful, and his understanding that all things beautiful are fleeting. He knows that everything will always change, but he accepts it for what it is and admires it anyway. (Potential Song Version)

Is your character capable of forgiveness or will they hold a grudge until they die? Would anything ever make them change their mind?
Yukari is capable of a form of forgiveness. As in, Yukari is rather unconcerned with most of the events around him, good or bad. No matter who challenges or combats him, he doesn't tend to hold any form of remorse, but more of a form of amusement. However, that's not to say there aren't things that get under his skin. Being called things such as "pretty" bother him. Even though he does strive for beauty, being compared to a woman's beauty seems to make him moody. But he's quick to let it go after he makes his own remark, and those that compare him as such are often not held with contempt. He is able to form these relationships regardless of what others think of him. If anything, Yukari seems genuinely incapable of holding a grudge, even if he dislikes something. He may choose to avoid things, but he relatively doesn't hold people's actions and reactions against them. This may simply be because he sees no beauty in being bitter about one's circumstances. He may dislike the position he's in from time to time, but it certainly doesn't hold his clarity hostage, as it would others.

What would your character sacrifice to get what they want or to reach their potential? What have they sacrificed already?
Sacrifice is one of the things that concerns Yukari very little. He is not only willing to put others that he's formed a bond with in harm's way if he deems it interesting, but he also has no qualms about sacrificing himself to see these interests to fruition. Yukari's attachment seems to be fickle at best, even turning his sword against his own cherished mentor and King. He's thrown relationships, lives, and even his own lifestyle to the wind in pursuit of what he deems as beauty and his own curiosity. He even was willing to see a potential end of the world to fruition, to sate this curiosity, serving the Green King.

When it comes to Yukari, it's more of a question of what he isn't willing to sacrifice. And truly it is his own value of beauty, whatever that may entail. He holds himself to a high regard in grace and beauty, putting his passion into everything he does. If he does not deem something beautiful, he will not participate in it. These are things he would find uninteresting and would certainly show a boredom towards, showing himself out or even opting to give a strong opinion of disapproval for.

What famous folklore, legend, or myth would you associate your character with? Are they literally inspired by Snow White? Do they have similar struggles or energy as Red Riding Hood?
Godfather Death by Brothers Grimm. A couple seek to find a neutral godfather for their thirteenth son, as the couple is so old. The father turns down both God and the Devil, choosing Death. Death raises the child in medicine and neutrality, assisting by standing at the head of the bed for those who receive a life-saving herb, and at the foot for them to meet their demise. However, the boy tricks Death into standing at the head of two royals instead of at their feet, saving them rather than letting them die. Death brings the boy to a hall of candles saying for those that do not die at their time, another must. The boy's candle is short because he saved these lives. Death makes his disappointment clear that the boy betrayed him and the neutrality he was raised in before killing the boy.

Similarly, Yukari is an extremely neutral party. No matter what he is told to do, even if he would rather continue an action, he will obey the order. Yukari's only drive is the end and the beauty within. He gives and he takes without discrimination. He was willing to kill his own student and brother, and similarly stood down when the order changed. Though he isn't necessarily disappointed in the lack of others' neutrality, he certainly will make a point of it when it lacks beauty and passion. Deceptions and underhandedness are viewed on a sliding scale, but he strongly prefers not to stoop to certain levels, even if it is to get a desired result, and he will express his disappointment thereof. Love and bond will not stop Yukari from doing what is dictated, and so neither love nor bond will save someone from their end if that is what must come of it.
