GENERAL INFORMATION
NAME: Crow
ALIASES: That Damn Trickster
AGE: 777
GENDER: Male
COMPANION TYPE: Buddy
SPECIES: SHINJIN: Mystic Arts | Sour Fruit/Demonic Might
CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
BACKGROUND: Crow was a bad egg. That was what he'd been told, anyway. Apparently, rotten fruit Shinjin like him were always up to no good. And, well, he'd never done much to prove any of the other Shinjin wrong on that front. From the day he was first born, Crow was always causing trouble, whether it be disobeying direct orders from superiors and doing whatever it was he wanted, although at the time, there had been a slight PR crisis of allegations of discrimination against Rotten Fruit Shinjin, and so the more pristine and proper Shinjin were compelled to be especially lenient of his antics.
Although, that leniency came to an end when he pulled off one scheme too many - the final straw being when he placed an exploding whoopie cushion beneath the chair of King Yemma. It didn't hurt the big man, of course, but he sure was angry, as were Crow's direct superiors. Enough was enough, they decided, and Crow was, at last, banished to the Demon Realm like so many of his other rotten fruit companions, and he was none too happy about it. The problem was, he couldn't figure out how the hell to get out of the place! It seemed like some powerful demons were always managing to make it back to the other realms, but he couldn't figure it out for the life of him.
That was, until one day, a mysterious portal appeared before him, and when he stepped inside of it, he found himself standing before many short people in lab coats, all of whom were surprised to see him. Most surprised of all was a white-haired one, and when he asked if she was the one who had created the portal, she hesitantly said yes. Crow had found his savior! He instantly swore fealty to the woman, claiming he owed her a life debt. He may have been a troublemaker, but damn it, he was a loyal one! Despite the woman, whose name was Goose as he eventually found out, insisting he leave her alone, Crow wouldn't have it.
After all, she was a mortal, meaning she'd only be around for the next seventy-odd years or so anyway, right? Crow didn't mind owing his time to someone for that long - for Shinjin, seventy years was nothing. For the time being, he would stick around with Goose, whether she liked it or not.

Medium Offensive || Is This Your Card?ADDITIONAL NOTES: Crow will be starting with 10,000 PL, and please rename his x4 to Jack of Clubs!
Crow draws a handful of cards and forces his opponent to pick one. Whatever card they pick (and even if they don't pick one), he reveals it to them, and then it explodes in their face.
Power: 70%
KP Cost: 4 KP
Light Defensive || Not On My Watch!
Crow halts an incoming attack by holding up his watch and requesting it please not land on it, as it's quite expensive and he has only just recently purchased it. This is an act, though, and he is actually holding the attack back with a telekinetic force, which can be broken through with enough strength.
Power: 40%
KP Cost: 2 KP
Light Offensive || Eye on the Other Hand
Crow performs a sleight of hand trick in which he appears to summon forth a famous golden dagger in one hand and brandishes it extravagantly, only to suddenly blast out an attack from his other hand towards the opponent.
Power: 40%
KP Cost: 2 KP
Medium Offensive || A Volunteer, Please!
Crow selects a volunteer from the crowd of combatants, and then engages in a small performative act with them that ultimately culminates in the two of them combining their energy in a joint ki blast towards whoever it is he's attacking.
Power: 50%
KP Cost: 4 KP
Variants: Merging
Heavy Offensive Sparking || And Now, the Grand Finale!
Crow throws up his cape and hides himself for a time, preparing behind it a secret technique that he has honed during his centuries spent in the Demon Realm. He stays crouched beneath his cape for quite some time, but once he is finished, he throws his cape back and stands up, unleashing powers beyond mortal comprehension upon his unlucky foe!
Power: 110%
KP Cost: 6 KP
Variants: Preparation, Back-Up Plan
Utility Technique || Shadow Sneak
Crow, surprisingly, does not always like the limelight, and so he has taken to the art of shadow sneaking, which allows him to hide his full physical form within shadows, usually Goose's.
Utility Technique || I Can Guess Your Weigh- I Mean, Power Level!
Crow is quite good at sizing up his enemies and allies alike, and can very correctly guess the power level of just about anyone! That is, unless they give off that annoying anti-sensing aura - that always throws him off.
