Subaru

Subaru Sumeragi, at sixteen, is an effeminate figure, standing at 5'1" (155cm). His delicate features and slender frame often lead to mistaken identity with his twin sister, Hokuto. His short, glossy black hair, styled with long, sweeping bangs, frames his striking green eyes—a rare contrast against his Japanese complexion. Subaru's appearance is both enchanting and unconventional, captivating the attention of those around him.

Despite his scrawny, frail appearance, Subaru's presence commands notice. His wiry physique belies an inner fortitude, creating a captivating paradox of fragility and ethereal beauty. His androgynous mannerisms complement a gentle grace and poise, moving with serene calmness and subtle, yet intentional, actions. This fluid grace is an extension of his essence—a mesmerizing blend of stillness and fluidity that often leaves onlookers entranced and questioning societal norms.

Subaru's indifference to fashion leaves the selection of his attire in the capable hands of his sister, Hokuto. This results in a wardrobe that often hugs his slender form, featuring shirts that cling to his torso, snug pants, short-shorts that accentuate his legs, and crop-tops that reveal tantalizing glimpses of his skin.

However, when duty calls, Subaru dons his signature ensemble: a black catsuit that skims his lithe body like a second skin, paired with a vibrant red overcoat. This striking attire serves multiple purposes—it provides warmth in the night's chill and functions as a mobile arsenal, housing his arsenal of enchanted ofuda charms and protective talismans. The catsuit's form-fitting design allows for fluid movement during his supernatural battles, as the overcoat's volume conceals the tools of his mystical trade. This outfit is both a reflection of Subaru's individuality and a testament to his practicality as an Onmyo-ji, his enable is complete with a wide-brimmed back hat.

Sexuality: Subaru's understanding of love and attraction is a nascent one, colored by his sheltered upbringing within an all-female household. Barely aware of his homosexuality, he remains shy and uncertain about the realm of relationships. His deep connection with his twin sister, Hokuto, has instilled in him an appreciation for the masculine archetype—the strength, the protection, and the virility embodied by the men who capture his heart. However, his inexperience in matters of the heart leaves him feeling vulnerable and somewhat diatracted, unsure of how to navigate the complexities of romantic attachment. This uncertainty makes him all the more endearing, as he grapples with the intricacies of his own desires amidst his extraordinary responsibilities as an Onmyo-ji.

Skills: As an Onmyo-ji, Subaru commands a diverse array of mystical abilities: Shikigami Summoning: He can call forth benevolent elemental and bestial entities to aid him in combat. Ofuda Mastery: His proficiency with Ofuda allows him to cast curses, erect wards, and empower himself with enhancing talismans. Subconscious Invasion: Through deep meditation, Subaru can navigate the psychic landscape, uncovering hidden truths. Spiritual Synergy: With his heightened senses, he can perceive, communicate with, and exorcise malevolent spirits from the mortal world. Advanced Sakurazukamori Techniques: Subaru's expertise in the ancient practices of the Sakurazukamori allows him to subdue even the most formidable entities, his physical vulnerability offset by his mastery of Onmyo-do.

Role: As a dedicated Onmyo-ji and mage, Subaru's sacred duty is to safeguard the material realm from malevolent forces. His multifaceted responsibilities include exorcism, spirit banishment, and guiding lost souls to their rightful place in the afterlife—blending spiritual stewardship with compassionate guardianship of the thin veil separating life from death. Operating covertly, Subaru's endeavors are discrete, backed by the government's subtle support. This clandestine partnership keeps supernatural chaos concealed from the public eye, maintaining the delicate equilibrium between the seen and the unseen. As Subaru navigates his dual existence, he excels as a high-school student while fulfilling his mystical obligations, walking the fine line between the mundane and the supernatural with grace and determination.

Family: Ine Sumeragi, the matriarch of the clan, was a potent force in the realm of the supernatural. Though she departed this world a year ago, her legacy endures through her grandchildren. As their guardian and mentor, she not only nurtured Subaru and Hokuto but also imparted to them the arcane arts of the Onmyoji.

Hokuto Sumeragi, Subaru's identical twin sister, follows a parallel path, albeit with lesser innate power. Beyond her mystical pursuits, Hokuto has established herself as a rising star in the fashion world. As a burgeoning designer, she crafts attire for both herself and Subaru, her academic endeavors complementing her entrepreneurial spirit. Despite her youthful status, Hokuto's talent has already set her on a path towards wealth and success.

The Sumeragi clan boasts an illustrious lineage, tracing its roots back to the legendary Abe no Seimei, a revered figure in Onmyo-do's storied past. This ancestral link imbues Subaru and Hokuto with a profound sense of duty and a direct connection to the ancient wisdom of their forebears.

The Sumeragi family's Onmyo magic is deeply entwined with the philosophical principles of Yin and Yang, the cosmic forces that govern the universe. It is also inextricably tied to the five Chinese elements—Earth, Water, Fire, Metal, and Wood—that form the foundation of all natural phenomena. The clan's mastery of these forces enables them to maintain the delicate spiritual equilibrium that protects the mortal world from otherworldly threats.
