Kaito Arashi

The world of Sumeru thrives on the essence of Ki, the lifeblood of the world. Thanks to the Heart of Khal, the all the worlds inhabitants each have a small portion of Kin in their soul. Those who have more substantial amounts of Ki are sent to Martial Artes Schools to refine their ki into different forms: Ka, Chi, Chakra, or Od. Each refined form of Ki has its own unique principles and disciplines. The world has a more mystical Japanese/Chinese aesthetic, ranging from simple towns to the Martial Artes Schools themselves The main currency is Silver coins, which small slabs of a ocean stone call Prismarine used as stand in's for 100 silver coins Every individual carries of single page scroll that contains their identification at all times, which is crafted after a child in this world turns 5. The scroll consists of their names, age, birthdate, gender, amount of Ki they possess, and any unique traits they might possess. Only the Seven Jewels Sect forbids its students to carry their id on them at all times, with the school sending the information to the mission location of their agents when requested by the town.

When he just a baby, Kaito was left at the doorsteps of the Seven Jewels Ninja Sect for unknown reason. When he was found by the Master, the wizened old man took the boy in out of empathy. Ever since that day, Kaito was forever in the Sect Master's debt, vowing to faithfully serve the home willing to take him in. To repay this debt, he took to mastering the Sects Chakra Artes, Blue Blaze, which allows ninjas to craft simple spells, mostly for illusions and stealth. As Kaito grew older, he became one of ten chosen successor candidates called Tsugukos, the ones who will inherit the blood of the Sect's guardian spirit: Zho Lai, the Shadow Fox, and then be proclaimed Kagumas, Spirit Blood Warriors. Kaito took a sacred vow of total silence as penance and mourning following the tragic loss of Nisa Rhens during a training exercise. This silence serves as an emotional barrier to prevent them from bonding with others or experiencing that pain again. The vow cannot be broken casually; it will only shatter if Kaito faces a moment where speaking out is the absolute only way to save a new companion, or when they finally find true closure and absolution regarding Nisa's death."
