CHARACTER
Name: Natsuno Yuuki/Koide (his parents aren’t married, he usually goes by Yuuki but his legal name is Koide)
True Name: Natsuno
Canon: Shiki (Ep. 22, after his death)
Age: 15
History: Natsuno’s wiki page.
Powers/Abilities:
*Note: shiki (“corpse-demon”) is the canon name for vampires
Natsuno is a “jinrou”, a rare subspecies of shiki. Where shiki are undead, jinrou don’t die after they’re bitten, but enter a death-like coma during which they transform. Sunlight doesn’t hurt them, they feel warm to touch, breathe and have a pulse.
Powers:
Job History:
Greatest Fear: Religious symbols - crosses, Buddha statues, jizo statues, charms, star of david, incense, the metallic sound of prayer bells…
Greatest Desire: To be free. Natsuno always felt trapped by other people’s expectations - first his parents, then the villagers who expected him to play a role but never bothered to get to know him for real, and finally the shiki who turned him into one of them when he was already willing to die. For once he wants to be free to make his own choices and just be whatever he wants, without the burden of outside expectations.
Greatest Regret: Dying in Sotoba. Emphasis on Sotoba, because while Natsuno considers himself a monster and resigned himself to die for it, he hates that the village he wished to escape from became his grave. If only he’d left while he was still human and convinced his parents and the few friends he cared about to move out (the other humans and shiki could kill each other as much as they wanted, he should never have cared).

*Note: shiki (“corpse-demon”) is the canon name for vampires
Natsuno is a “jinrou”, a rare subspecies of shiki. Where shiki are undead, jinrou don’t die after they’re bitten, but enter a death-like coma during which they transform. Sunlight doesn’t hurt them, they feel warm to touch, breathe and have a pulse.
Powers:
- Blood is optional: unlike shiki who consume blood to survive, jinrou can eat normal food. If they do suck blood, their daily intake is relatively small and takes them 3-4 consecutive feeding days to kill someone.
- Heightened senses: sharpened eyesight (including the ability to see in total darkness) and hearing, a keen nose.
- Physical prowess: strength and speed that exceed both human and regular shiki. However, jinrou must drink blood to unlock its potential.
- Invulnerability: shiki don’t age and disease, poison and drugs (alcohol, anesthetic etc.) don’t affect them. Injuries heal in a matter of minutes. The only way to kill them is to destroy their circulatory system, usually by staking the heart or decapitation.
- Hypnosis: shiki can control anyone they bite. This works only for the first one to attack, making the victim resistant to other shiki’s control (This ability will only be used with player permission and the effect will fade after 2 IC days).
- Instinctive fear of religious symbols - it won’t harm shiki, but can definitely repel them
- Invitation: shiki cannot enter a dwelling without an explicit invitation from a resident. It has to be specific, so “may I come in?” grants access only to one shiki, and “can my friend come?” allows more of them to come in (ICly, Natsuno will be able to access common areas but would need an invitation to go into the cabins. Said invitation would expire if the character drops).
- Natsuno refuses to drink blood unless there’s absolutely no other choice, so for the most part he can’t access his heightened abilities.
Job History:
- Normal kid (1979-August 1994): Used to live in a city until his hippie parents moved to a backwater village. Natsuno's village life including hating 95% of the population, gaining a stalker and studying hard so he can get into a good university and leave the boonies.
- Amateur vampire hunter (September 1994): After his dead stalker came back and killed his best friend, Natsuno realized the undead were taking over the village and started investigating with the help of two other kids. Despite being armed only with pop-culture knowledge and improvised weapons, he proved to be incredibly calm under stress and clever enough that the shiki decided he's a threat and needs to be killed.
- "If he couldn't become a hunter, than sooner or later he'd have to become a victim" (October 1994): The shiki decided the best way to get rid of Natsuno was to send his newly-risen best friend. Loyal to a fault, Natsuno asked his friend to run away together. When that failed, he realized he couldn't hurt his friend and instead let him feed on him. He knew he was choosing death and made peace with it.
- Co-conspirator (October 1994-November 1994): Natsuno revived as a jinrou (daywalking shiki) and oh man did that screw with his head. Giving up didn't end things, so he had to take action - and that action was helping the local doctor annihilate all shiki. While the doctor did most of the work, Natsuno saved his two remaining friends and took out the other jinrou, killing himself in the process. Because fuck them for turning him into one of them.
- Grief over having everyone he cared about killed or deeply traumatized by shiki (successful, the only sign is a blanker stare than usual)
- Hatred for shiki and what they've done to him (zero success, he let the village burn and committed murder-suicide just to ruin their plans)
