 Posted: Tue Sep 09, 2008 9:28 pm Post subject: Mugen |
 |
|
Name: Mugen
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Height: 5’9”
Weight: 130
Appearance:
He carries two blades, his principal weapon a unique sword with a curved blade and a hilt with two prongs sheathed across his back and the other a small tanto concealed at the end of his scabbard (only resorted to as a trump card). His main weapon appears to be an amalgamation of the okinawan sai and Japanese katana. Mugen also has a tendency to parry attacks with the steel base of his geta. His clothing is anachronistic as well, reminiscent of baggy hip-hop fashions of today: his gi functions more like a jacket and his hakama is cut off at shorts-length, resembling loose-fitting Bermuda shorts. His black hair is unkept and similar to an afro or Spike Spiegel's from Cowboy Bebop.
Race: Japanese
Hair: Black
Eyes: Black
Body: Very Skinny But Highly Toned And Defined With Muscle
Ethnicity: Kirigakure
Level/Rank: Vagrant
Village: None
Bloodline: None
Main/Favored Weapon: Double-edged tsurugi (often confused with a katana) with two-prong hilt and a tantō (concealed in opposite end of scabbard) and steel based geta
Element: None
Fighting Type/Style: Mix of various styles incorporating rapid, irregular movements he dubs "Champloo Kendo"
Starting Inventory: Double-edged tsurugi (often confused with a katana) with two-prong hilt and a tantō (concealed in opposite end of scabbard) and steel based geta.
Personality: Rude, lewd, vulgar, and nihilistic, Mugen is somewhat of an antihero. Some of his actions seem to represent an amorality, indicating that he operates more on instinct than anything else. Mugen is a womanizer. The way Mugen acts is relatively based on his core conviction. Highly unorthodox swordplay and a fighting style based on breakdancing - dubbed "champuru kendo" and ostensibly developed by himself - taking bits and pieces from all forms of martial arts and making up the rest as he fights his opponents, make him a force to be reckoned with. He utilizes erratic movements to prevent anyone from predicting them. But he fails to utilize his martial arts skills. By relying only on reflex and instinct, he inadvertently shows the limitations of his skills to his opponent. Because of his style it is hard for him to fight in small areas (an example would be a closet). His moves become increasingly erratic and unique as his opponents are more powerful.
Mugen seems to be incapable of dying, or at the very least has a body that is more resistant to life-threatening injuries than the average person. When on the verge of death, he appears to cross into a mystical world in the Ryūkyūan religion called Nirai Kanai. Depicted as an upside-down mirror world—overseen by the Futuchi who are dressed in black-feathered robes and carry spears. With each visit to this world he is subsequently 'rejected.' He has been brought back to life in this manner on at least three occasions. It has been speculated that his survival is because he is being preserved for a greater purpose.

Background: Mugen (無限) was born in a penal colony on the Ryukyu Islands. His name means without limitation, as the components of it are the characters for "without" and "limitation." Incidentally, he writes his name using the infinity symbol (∞), a pun on his name, 'Mugen,' which is a homophone of the Japanese word for 'eternity'. His Japanese is quite rough and "Yanki". The exact date of his birth is unknown, and much of his past is shrouded in mystery. It also appears that he may be of Ainu origin, from the style of his clothes, and Mugen himself commenting that he grew up on the same music an Ainu fugitive was playing, though the Ainu man came from the far North, and Mugen came from the far south. As for his parents, Mugen states that he never knew who they were. The blue tattoos on his wrists and ankles indicate that he was once in prison. The circumstances of his imprisonment are unclear at first, but it is later verified that he was to be executed for engaging in piracy.

Yeah, I didn't really consider him a missing ninja, because he's not a ninja at all. And without strengths and weaknesses it would be pointless for me to say that he can't use any ninja techniques because then everyone would just assume they could own him... so Im trying to think what to do about this character (all suggestions welcome as far as rank and title and how to let people know he still kicks ass). Maybe I should just scrap him?
(He's like Lee in the sense that he kicks ass without ninja techniques, but he also has no formal training and style)

Hmmm all very good points. I really do want to make a character who is essentially Mugen, despite it being cannon, I have thought about it before... when I was a kid I used to write stories, and then I watched Samurai Champloo (my intrduction to all manga/anime) and I was like, "Holy S***! Thats exactly what I was trying to do with a character when I was little." So I do see your point Zeke, its just that I would have made a character like this regardless of Samurai Champloo and honestly I think they did the character better than me, but you know what they say, "the grass is always greener on the other side."
So basically Im still thinking what to do about the non ninjutsu aspects of him. Because even if I made him he wouldnt really have any official "Techniques" persay, save for maybe that move where he like breakdance kicks the shit out of people.
Wait I just thought of something, though this might be way out there, and if it is thats okay too. But in the show Mugen is able to pick up and mimick certain moves of his oppenent. So perhaps I should create some kind of jutsu around that to make him more viable to this setting?

If you do it right, you can get along without techniques.
And Zeke, if you don't like people copying stuff, go elsewhere. Rping is about having fun and the way some people do it is to copy some of there favorite chars. Don't hold it against them, just stay away from them in the rp.
