Kurayami no Kokuō

• Appearance: • Tall and lean, with a muscular yet flexible build. • Skin like black obsidian, dark and reflective. • Eyes cold white, with no pupils, like those of a spirit. • Long, straight black hair with faint silver streaks, tied in a high warrior’s knot. • Attire: • Layered black imperial kimono, embroidered with shadowy patterns of crows and bare trees under the moon, stitched in dark gray thread. • A haori with a hood, resembling a misty night veil. • A dark crown with sharp, claw-like elements. • Personality: • Stern but composed, speaking rarely and with weight to every word. • His presence feels oppressive, as if the night itself has come alive. • Kanazuki inherited her power over darkness from him, but unlike him, she softened her aura with her mother’s golden warmth. • Powers: • Control over shadows and nighttime illusions. • The ability to enter dreams and twist them into nightmares. • Can blanket entire cities under a “shroud of night,” making them vanish from sight.
