Tsukune Dracul Aono: Character Page
Tsukune Dracul is a former human coming from the 'average' Aono family, though he has debated with himself several times if his family is actually average when his abilities are so high after so little training compared to other monsters. He formerly attended Yokai Academy as a human, staying there because he had fallen for the resident vampire, Moka Akashiya. He has now left after turning into a ghoul then subsequently a Shinso and is now attending Kuoh Academy.
Race: Shinso Vampire (Assumed)
Birthday: June 22
Gender: Male
Height: 185.5 cm (6'1")
Weight (83KG)
Appearance: Tsukune is a slim but toned, light skinned teen of slightly above average height with red-colored eyes and black messy hair. His standard non-school attire consists of a white button up shirt with a red tie done in a casual fashion, with black slacks and stylish shoes.
Personality: Tsukune is kind-hearted and brave, unlike his previously cowardly behavior before entering Yokai. His new nature also allows him to be unnaturally observant, causing him to pick up minute detail about people that even skilled human mentalists wouldn't see, which allows him to relate to people and converse with them easily. Despite his kind nature, he can be known to tease and rile up his friends if relaxed, but is also fairly susceptible to teasing himself, despite not really being much of a prude.
A weakness of his personality, as stated by Katarea Leviathan and Tohou-Fuhai, is that he tends to instinctively hold himself back more than he needs to when facing opponents weaker than him. Katarea has since slowly discouraged him from doing this, and has stated that if he continues to do so, someone will notice and use their cunning to defeat him even if they are weaker.
History: Before enrolling into Yokai, Tsukune was the epitome of an average male teen, average grades, average looks and even the average perverseness that all male teens seem to have. Despite this, when attending Yokai, he showed his true courageous colors which caused the harem he now possesses, even if he denies it.
Powers & Abilities
Immense Demonic Power: Being a Shinso Vampire, the pinnacle of a race who by themselves have large power reserves, Tsukune boasts an already immense well of energy within him, being equal to a Satan-class Devil and growing, but not on the level of Super-Devils like Serzechs and Ajuka. Another reason for his immense levels of energy is due to his status as a turned human. Despite being turned into a vampire, Tsukune retained the ingrained human nature of being able to obtain high levels of power far faster than other species because of the short life-span of a human.
Youjutsu Master: Having been trained by the foremost authority on Youjutsu - Tohou Fuhai - Tsukune is a prodigy in this art. He quickly mastered it's basics, and also mastered the advanced techniques like Jigen-tou and it's opposite Muei-tou to a level even surpassing Tohou. His engineered Youjutsu pathways allow him to channel Yoki throughout his body at a level surpassing even the finest of Youjutsu practitioners.
Martial Arts: Tsukune is at a level in martial arts that is unheard of for a student to reach so quickly, and has been stated by Tohou and Akua to be a monster in terms of fighting capability using this art. They theorize it is due to a dormant trait inherent in his blood that has never been used before he came to Yokai. Tohou has said that if it came down to pure martial arts that he could probably go toe-to-toe with Akasha Bloodriver, the messiah of vampires.
Martial arts techniques:
Burst Fist: A technique derived from the same concept as Jigen-tou, when the user draws back their fist, they use the technique of Jigen-tou to change the dimension in which their arm exists in. However, this technique tricks reality into thinking that their arm is still in the state that it was in when their arm was drawn back. The result of this is that when they bring their arm back into the main reality just before impacting their target, a tremendous amount of force follows the attack, equal to the force of their own punch times ten.
Oni-Ken (Demon Fist): The upgraded and more powerful version of Burst fist, this technique has exactly the same principle, but this time the user hits the opponent multiple times, too fast for them to see. Each swing of the fist is powered by the Burst-Fist technique, but is slightly weakened to allow for faster impact and multiple hits in rapid succession. The sheer speed with which this speed is delivered makes it literally impossible to counter by anyone other than Satan-level beings and higher, and even they have to resort to blocking it rather than countering it most of the time.
Ikkotsu (Single Bone): Is a powerful technique inspired by a manga that Tsukune reads. Using a rigid stance, Tsukune delivers a devastating blow that sends even more powerful opponents rocketing backwards. The way he does this is by channeling as much Yoki as he can into his fist just before the impact then releasing it in an outward facing burst of tremendous impact power. Rias once witnessed the technique and couldn't believe he developed a working technique from the popular manga called 'Bleach'.
Soukotsu (Double Bone): The same principal as Ikkotsu, just channeled into both fists which makes it twice as powerful.
Speed technique: Jigen-Chouyaku (Dimension-Leap): Using the same principal as burst fist, Tsukune suspends the dimension of the leg he is just about to use to propel himself, then releases the suspension just as he kicks-off. This results in his speed being amplified by a tremendous amount, causing his speed to surpass the speed of the Knights in ultimate-class devil peerages. Katarea once theorized that at his peek speed Tsukune could cross even the entire Sahara desert in less than half an hour. However, Tsukune revealed that continued use of the technique damages his Yoki pathways, as too much power is continuously forced through them. The longest he can continuously use this technique for is ten minutes of repeated use.
Strength: Being of the legendary Shinso Vampire race and being able to enhance his strength through Youjutsu, Tsukune is able to lift considerable weight, even amongst his peers. While not a strength based fighter like Moka, he boasts enough natural strength to be able to lift a fifty-ton gigantic Cerberus with relative ease, showing no strain when doing so. He is surpassed by Katarea Leviathan in strength, though he makes up for the gap with various techniques.
Healing Factor: As is inherent with the Shinso-Vampire species, Tsukune's body has achieved a state of healing so powerful many have commented that his body may as well be undying. One of the most impressive feats of his healing so far is being impaled through the heart by a light spear made by a high-class fallen angel, only for his chest to be unmarred by any wound only minutes later, despite having been blood-deprived for the past two and a half weeks. Akua suspects that like Akasha, Tsukune would still be able to put himself back together even after being cut in half, though he has no wish to tempt fate by attempting it.
Sorcerer: Having been told by Ruby that he had a decently sized magical core even before turning into a vampire, Ruby had given him a few books on many basic and advanced spells. He is nowhere near as proficient with spells as a true magic user like Ruby or Akeno however, and prefers to rely on Ruby as his contracted magician to cast spells for him so he is not distracted in a fight. Still, the spells he does know he is extremely proficient at using.
Shape-shifting: Tsukune's talent in Youjutsu is surpassed only by his skill in shape-shifting, an ostracized skill amongst vampires that Tsukune uses purely for it's awesome practical use. To attain the form of an animal, Tsukune need only know it's appearance and habits. He doesn't have to have encountered one before, though doing so makes the transformation much easier. He is also able to use shape-shifting to transform individual body parts, such as transforming his arm into a sharp bat-like wing similar to Kahlua's ability. He cannot assume the form of a creature more powerful than he is, though he can overcome this by observing a member of that species that is less powerful than him then train that form to be more powerful.
Equipment:
Ddraig: Not wanting Issei to be caught up in the Supernatural, Tsukune removes him from being a target by using the Shinso ability to absorb souls to remove Ddraig from Issei's boosted gear and transfer it into himself. Ddraig now exists within Tsukune as a pseudo sacred gear. At first he rejects Tsukune for taking him away from his previous host, but changes his mind when he observes Tsukune's compatibility with him in his fight against Kokabiel. After this, and some training, he allows Tsukune to access an ability that uses his shape-shifting powers with Ddraig's soul that allows him to shapeshift into a dragon. He cannot use any of Ddraig's power, as he is just a soul within Tsukune, but using Ddraig's soul as a base he can shapeshift into a smaller version of Ddraig that is black in colour, using only his own power.
Honjo Masamune: Gifted to him by Katarea as compensation for trying to trick him into becoming her queen, this is an enchanted sword that is neither Demonic nor Holy. It has no discernible abilities, though the runes running across the entirety of the blade and hilt show that it has been enchanted with sharpness and fortifying properties so heavily that only the 13 Longinus have been able to damage it.
Other than being extremely strong and sharp, its main ability is revealed to be the perfect 'power channel', allowing the wielder to infuse it with their powers to amplify them. Tsukune generally infuses it with his Jigen-tou which allows him the ability to extend it far past his previous limit of 300 meters, now being able to bisect anything within a 2 mile radius of himself, while also amplifying its cutting power.
He possesses other abilities, though they have yet to be truly ironed out.
Quick Note PLEASE READ
Don't assume that getting Ddraig will make him overpowered, because it wont.
Tsukune cannot access Ddraig's power, he can only use his soul as a base for his shape-shifting abilities and can receive advice from him.
