A name is an empty thing, made up of interconnected sounds they are nothing more than a label used by humanity to better categorize the world around them. One could easily replace red with blue and have nothing actually change, empty, formless, meaningless, and yet somehow in complete defiance of this some names carry a very real weight and power. Kurogami is one such name.
The demonic lords of japan, the nobles, the inhuman, the influence of the Kurogami permeates throughout the entirety of japan's power structure. When they talk people listen and as someone fortunate enough to be born to this house of would be lords of the modern age Yuu’s words hold great sway over a great many things. Even though she occupies a somewhat muddled and strange niche within the family’s structure there is one thing that has never been in doubt, she is a Kurogami through and through. Having been raised as a true (if somewhat neglected) daughter of the clan and thus has naturally become acquainted with a great many powerful people. People (and resources) she has woven into a web of favors and influence through both her natural standing within the household and her own talents. A large web that stretches through proper society and, now that she has begun exploring the shadows of japan, not so proper society. It would almost make Toramaru proud, almost...
House of the Impure God:
The Kurogami aren’t human, the incessant whispers that have circulated around since they first began aiming for power during the days of ancient japan. Of course as with all such rumors they are laughably false no matter what others may think they are unmistakably biologically human ...yet if one looks at it from a different angle there is a certain truth to those dark rumors for those who fully inherit the blood of the Kurogami family are extraordinary and abnormal in equal measure. A true family of aberrations removed from the common sense of humanity and Yuu is no exception.
While possessing a minor talent for the fortitude of the soul that makes her better able to withstand the things that would corrode it the greatest thing she inherited from her family is something far more ...devilish.
A pure charisma born of her existence itself that disregards the need for extraneous facets. Rather than sincerity, noble intentions, a way with words or appearance (not that she does lack them) she entrances others by simply being around them. It is like she were a flame or a spiderweb and others were the moths flying through the night. Deep meaning is granted to otherwise meaningless words, ill intent is ignored, favor is granted even if no acknowledgment of the other party is made and everything is viewed through a favorable bias. An invitation to fall from a devil prince(ess).
Enter the Fist
A powerful mind dwells within a powerful body, the supreme aren’t not bound to excellence in a single field but excellence in all things and the remnants of their samurai traditions. For a multitude of reasons the Kurogami have long mandated a spartan like physical training as part of their upbringing. Training that Yuu has naturally excelled in but unlike her eldest sister Yuu is someone who naturally enjoys the adrenaline and fulfilment of combat. Following her bloodlust and love of thrills she met the spartan training will a hungry determination. It wasn’t enough to simply be fit she wanted more, she wanted to punch and dodge like she was main character in some high powered shounen battle series.
Determination and excitement fueled a journey to gain martial supremacy that she poured her soul into. Although her pride and ego led her to seek mastery with unarmed combat she has become able to easily match weapon touting opponents. Debilitating strikes, destroying grapples and crushing counters that leaves even the toughest opponents broken on the ground have lead to a fearsome reputation as she carved her supremacy into the bodies of countless opponents and dojo’s. From up and coming talents from the various fields of martial arts, to self confident delinquents, to criminal elements.
