OKITA, SOUJI

✖ M01C12-231 ✖ Green Team ✖ okita.souji@cdc.org ✖ PLACE OF ORIGIN & SPECIES: Edo, Japan (Earth) / Fury (previously human) ✖ DIET: Omnivorous, but his fury status leaves him with an unfortunate taste for blood ✖ NOTABLE SKILL SET/S: Enhanced speed, strength, and healing abilities; expert swordsman ✖ BACKGROUND: Souji Okita is the captain of the Shinsengumi's First Division. Born into a samurai family, he was left to live at Shiei Hall when both of his parents died. There, he became an expert of the Tennen-Rishin Ryu sword technique, his skills as a swordsman almost completely unmatched. Souji was recently bedridden due to symptoms of terminal tuberculosis, which eventually drove him to consume the Water of Life. This restored his health (for the most part) at the expense of his humanity—Souji was turned into a demon-like fury, enhancing his speed and strength and making him very difficult to kill. In exchange for this, however, he's developed a (literal) thirst for blood and struggles with maintaining his sanity. Even so, Souji considers himself the "sword" of the Shinsengumi, willing to cut down anyone in its path even at the expense of his humanity. ✖ CHARACTER ASSESSMENT: Usually cheerful and aloof, Souji has a penchant for teasing and tends toward mischief. He has a twisted sense of humor at times and doesn't always know where to draw the line, but his teasing is harmless for the most part. His constant smile often makes him hard to read and he isn't especially honest, but overall, he seems like a relatively good-natured person. This is all on the surface, however—underneath, Souji has difficulties trusting (or even liking) most people, has very few reservations about killing, and holds very little regard for human life. This, on top of his recent fury status, makes him especially dangerous as he struggles to stay sane. ✖ ( VIEW FULL PROFILE )
