General Character Information
--------------------------------------

Character Name: Yazoo

Character Age: 20s

Character Gender: Male

Character Race: Human

Character Position: Evil

Character Personality: Yazoo seems to take the characteristics of taunting his victims from Sephiroth. Though he is the kind of guy who is found in the 'silent but deadly' way. He keeps his voice in a rather calm way, allowing a vibe of mystery surround him. Having loyalty to his brothers are the main thing, even if he enjoys taunting Loz. Even if it means fallowing Kadaj to the end of the worlds or death, he'd follow.

Character's Appearance: Yazoo
Having silver hair come down past his shoulder blades, with green orbs to boot. Dressed in leather attire, easily recognizable to be with Kadaj and Loz. His face giving off that he's merely in his 20s at most, with a look that hardly anyone can read placed on his facial features. All around, giving off such a mysterious aura.

--------------------------------------
Battle Information
--------------------------------------

Weapon Name: Velvet Nightmare

Weapon Appearance: Velvet Nightmare
Yazoo's weapon is pridefully a gun, based off two parallel swords, named Velvet Nightmare. It is a sleek silver metal, with the ability to block attacks from swords. The designs on the gun simply look as swirls running up the blade from the handle to the trigger and slightly up beyond that. Though several times he is seen fighting by using martial arts, and not Velvet Nightmare.


Abilities:

• Dead eye:
  This ability allows him to focus darkness into his eyes, turning them a haunting black color and not the typical green. His vision seems to be increased beyond the typical human status in this mood, allowing him to see things in great detail. Also, allowing him to keep up with fast-moving objects not loosing track of them. Even allowing him to see multiple things at once too, as long as they stay within the field of his vision. With this ability, Yazoo is deadly accurate with Velvet Nightmare. Allowing him to land on an opponents vital spots even from meters away.
  
  
• Black Bullet:
  At the tip, or end, of Velvet Nightmare power of darkness is visibly seen collecting there. Yazoo can fire out a pitch-black stream of dark energy, similar to an laser beam, or a black bullet. When it collides with anything, it will explode with the power of darkness. Cool down for this ability will be three posts.
  
  
• False Summon:
  A dog-like beast emerges from the ground, out of the shadows and begins charging. It will only stop its charging when it runs out of the ground of when coming in contact with something. After the contact, it erupts into darkness and blows though the obstacle, causing damage as it continues to fade away back into nothingness. The creature itself only appears to be real, though it is merely a fake of shadows, forming a monster. Though the only thing it can pretty much do is charge straight ahead crossed the ground. Yazoo himself, can summon just about two or three of them at once.

Character History
--------------------------------------

Yazoo is one of three clones that originally came from Sephiroth. However, Yazoo and Loz seemed to be the first 'test subjects' for this, allowing Loz having super strength while Yazoo got the intelligence. So, Kadaj was next to come around, him managing to get both the intelligence and the strength, he was mentioned as the guardian. Though as Kadaj seemingly did whatever he desired, only allowing Yazoo and Loz to become quite loyal to him...seeing he was the guardian and brother.

Over the course of years, he allowed himself to become loyal to both siblings. Not really enjoying this 'Seymour' that continued to appear around his younger brother. Taking notice that Kadaj's attitude toward the previous guardian had changed to pure jealously.

Though he did over hear on one conversation, by total accident. He seem to have been casually walking by like he typically does, and hearing the soft words of Seymour and Kadaj. Hearing such words of 'Mother', and not referring to the mother he had known, made Yazoo listen in closely. What he heard next made him run off, not knowing what to do. Mentioning something about 'true mother' just didn't feel exactly right, yet, to Yazoo. Finally, however, Yazoo had found his way to Loz. Even though he was out of breath completely, Yazoo managed to tell the entire conversation about 'Mother' to Loz.

As death came upon their world Yazoo managed to slip in a gaze of Seymour porting Kadaj away, completely devastated by the way his brother left them both to die. Thus his heart soon open the corridors of darkness, though his unique heart allowed him to soak in such of the darkness. This, allowing him to grow unique powers of darkness. However, to Yazoo, he believes that 'Mother' had saved him for any unknown reasons.

Now, but he had to find Kadaj and Loz was calling out to him. He continues to travel, attempting to find any signs of his brothers. To him, no matter what became of his brothers, he was still and elder brother to Kadaj. And his loyalty would not let him turn back, no matter what.

Yazoo is left handed.
{Had to kinda work with Avenger's history of Kadaj...so I could explain what happened with out being too far out of the opposite from Kadaj's history - I asked. ^^;}
{Thanks Bilby for giving ideas and suggestions, they rock!}

Sample Post
--------------------------------------
Another soft breeze flickered along the ever twisting trees below the very land he lay own. His silver locks danced ever so delicately within the pleasing weather. Green cat-like orbs gazed up on the very blue sky that hovered above him.

He lay in the grass, the blades ever tickling his skin. Though, he was not resting like an innocent slacker..he was resting up for more searching. More along the lines as he was continuing his long search for his two brothers. Something always pleading him on the insides to find the other two silver-haired, cat-green orbed, men.

With a rather rough push of his arms, he was sitting in the green grass now. Orbs casted down onto the endless sea of green, completely lost in thought. A soulless look casted onto Yazoo's facial features, as if being pulled into long forgotten memories. In which, he was being ever drawn into the memories that flashed before him.

They were memories of Kadaj and Loz. They seemed to be the only things that allowed him to continue to search, no matter how hard this trip was going to be. He was allowing the thoughts to run, flashing through his very skull.

One stuck out the most. The one time when Kadaj had lost his temper. Throwing a tantrum like a child - though Yazoo knew that was his brother for him - complaining about everything of the world. Yazoo allowed his words to attempt to sooth the anger of his younger brother.

"Come now, dear brother. I'm sure you'll finish off everyone someday. But for now, take it one day at a time, until that day comes."

Those words echoed though out Yazoo's skull. He never knew those words could haunt his mind from the days after. Considering the next time Yazoo had realized the world he knew it was over shadowed. Then came all the pain, the pain from being ripped away from the two people he chariest the most.

Though he'd never let it show physically, Yazoo was mentally wanting his brother's attention again. Loz with his sensitivity, and Kadaj with his headstrong attitude. Yazoo mused. Knowing full well that they would be reunited. Heck, even under this Mother he had heard before the world he knew and loved vanished from reality.

Lifting himself off of the dirt and brushing it off of him, Yazoo sighed out. His face showing no other emotion that he knew of. So, with a pat to Velvet Nightmare, Yazoo continued his ever journey for the brothers he wanted back...[/center][/size]

Ok despite what alot of sites seem to claim, Yazoo DOES NOT use a gunblade. It has stated said before by Square somewhere I'm sure (I'll find the link if I must). What he uses is mearly a modified gun, made with a metal strong enough to block attacks from such things as swords. If you have noticed, it lacks an actual blade sharp enough to cause much damage.

EDIT: www.square-enix-usa.com/dvd/ff7ac/

If you look under characters>Yazoo it will tell you the following:

"A youth who is unbound by worldly matters and thus a bit of an enigma. Yazoo carries the "Velvet Nightmare," a firearm designed after two parallel swords, but with gun functionality only."

It's just a gun.

[icixala]

I thank you, Atrum Luneth. That was making me wonder for the longest time.

I modified it. Yet again, thank you.

[Admin]

Instead of 'takes several moments of charging' in your Black Bullet, just give it a cooldown.

[icixala]

Alright, any suggestions for cool down time? I don't want to give too little, and too much of cool downs any any of the abilities...since I'm indecisive when it comes to this stuff.

Edit: I made it three, but I'll change it if it's too low of a count.

[owaz]

Hmm, the character seems to be fine...

So 1/3rd accepted. Two other staff will review it, with one of them being Avenger himself I imagine.

[thaed]

2/3rds accepted.

[Admin]

Accepted fully. Locked and moved.
