Personality //
Fuhahahaha--! Eh? Ehh!? They hung up! They hung up on me!
Okabe Titor (Okarin): Okarin's general personality which is shown to the majority. Okarin on the outside looks like a person who seems to be rather odd because he can always be seen talking on his phone, off or on, speaking about random things that don't make sense, and his lab coat seems to make him stand out and be avoided where he goes, though some find it alright. Okarin acts as if he was acting out scenes from a show or something, adding it to his real life and making him seem less serious and not to be taken seriously on anything. Giving people nicknames except for those close to him, Okarin passes off as a time wasting lazy person who has seen too much TV.
To give a more accurate description, Okarin tends to mix so called "delusions" into reality and therefore those who know him always believe he is lying. He also has a cynical laugh which adds to his aura of being a free spirit and easygoing character. Those who meet him for the first time will either take a liking to him because of his unique and interesting persona or be driven away thinking he is crazy. Though, this is how he wants people to think of him. Originally, this acting was to throw people off to avoid him, but it backfired in a positive way.
If Okabe's aura was to be described as a color, it would be sky blue for a peaceful, happy and tranquil feeling about him.
Kyou Mai (Kyouma): Okarin's darker personality which is shown to few and is considered his Magus side. This is the side of Okarin which he established in order to play the part of a Magus. Every now and then, it can be seen mixing in with his Okabe persona from time to time. Kyouma is a more emotionless and oppressive person who gives off that aura of fear and aggression, as if when he glares at you like that you see not him, but darkness. This persona of Okarin is made using his negative emotions and Magus traits as his foundation, pushing others away to hide who he really is. As Okabe, he mutters stuff into his phone which is turned off, and says things about the Organization or whatever else he can think up, but in reality there is such a thing, just under a different name. The Magic Association which Okarin has sort of run away from. He nicknames them the "Organization", and others as "Rounders".
In detail, Kyouma acts coldly towards others and those who know Okabe will probably see him as a different person. No one is spared from his coldness unless they know "Kiyoshi". Also, as a note, Okarin addresses himself as Kyouma instead of Okabe, but everyone addresses him as Okabe or Okarin anyway. This is also another way to throw people off of who he really is. Kyouma acts according to self interest and cares little for those around him, being greedy with things, whether it be money or friends. From an outside perspective, Kyouma appears more of the secret organization type of person who would be emotionless and capable of killing without a problem. This is how he looked when he was with the Magic Association, and also how he looks when with others like him nicknamed "Rounders".
If Kyouma's aura was to be described as a color, it would be blood red for blood, sacrifice and approaching darkness.
Kiyoshi Hibiki: Okarin's true self which he hides from everyone except for those that truly know him, such as a childhood friend who has known him for a very long time, or a lover who he has opened himself up to. Every now and then, Kiyoshi can be seen at times such as when comforting a dear friend who is having a hard time, but quickly cover it up with the usual Okabe jokes. Even within his own mind, Okarin tries to hide Kiyoshi away from everything for fear of his true self being revealed to others, being destroyed by the other personalities he uses, or tainted by whatever happens on the outside. Kiyoshi is one of the only real treasures that Okarin has, and occasionally lets it out for some fresh air, such as when he's alone. When like this, Okarin is not wearing a lab coat so it is easily to differentiate from normal. In fact, it makes him seem like a completely new person.
To describe Kiyoshi in detail, he can be seen as a lazy-for-good-reason person who is outgoing, self sufficient, capable and well managed, giving off the sense that he can get away with being lazy simply because of the feeling around him. Under the alias of Kiyoshi Hibiki online, Okarin has released covers of many songs and also some dances where he dresses up and covers his face. Kiyoshi can be thought of as a casual person you see walking along the street that would step in and stop a fight, even if they are a complete stranger. He is a really caring person who does not show it much, and is more of a silent type who prefers to say little when not singing or explaining things, simply finding it as a hassle because it takes too long to talk. Kiyoshi is also not shy in the least to do things or express things, and occasionally may do something outrageous without it seeming the least bit wrong.
If Kiyoshi's aura was to be described as a color, it would be white for pure and untainted, a color which could be corrupted by any color it mixes with.

- Extra Info: Okarin has a rather thin looking build, but is well toned underneath which people would not expect of him. Majority of the time, Okarin can be seen with his hair pushed back and rather spiky with a few clumps of strands hanging forward. Going further down to the face, Okarin rarely shaves and usually has a bit of stubble that rather suits him. Moving along, he is almost always seen wearing a plain shirt and pants underneath a lab coat and rarely wears something else. Unknown to almost everyone, Okarin has a tattoo on his upper left arm where it is usually hidden by shirt sleeves. Done stand alone, the Kanji characters read [Hope]. Because he almost never takes his shirt off in front of others, people do not notice that he has a tattoo across the center of his torso in the shape of a [Heart].
Also to be noted, Okarin has two [Pistols] which he hides under his clothes and has at least one of them on his person at all times. This is usually when he does his dirty jobs relating to "The Organization".
History //
- Growing Up: Okarin was born into a family of Magi in Japan whose job with the Magic Association was the dirty work like cleaning up the mess that other Magi made, making sure the secret of Magic existing wasn't spread to the general populace, and carrying out the more dirty tasks such as hunting down enemies of the Association. Pretty much, they were the Assassins of the Magic Association. Okarin makes the 4th Generation of this family, and is an only child with little contact outside of his family and a few select people who were given tasks with his parents. A child is born with no sins, but his parents were quickly dragging him down that path before he could even think for himself.
Because he was born as an only child, he was burdened with the duty of being Successor. This meant that his life had been planned out for him without his consent, and even how he was raised was controlled. At an early age he was exposed to things like war, combat, magic, death and pain. Assassins had to withstand torture if captured, so it's within their interest to receive pain training. Also, the body had to be trained well along with the mind. A weak mind limited the body, and a weak body limited the mind. Nutrition, environment and rules were controlled by his parents, all in the name of 'creating' an heir to their bloodline. Their Magic Crest transference also began at a young age.
Both in Mind, Body and Education, Okarin was home schooled on everything, mostly by his parents and sometimes by others when his parents had jobs to do. One of the benefits was that they traveled a lot, all expenses paid. Okarin had to learn hard and remember a lot of things. He was taught about the rules of the Magic Association, the duties he would have to fulfill later in life, preschool education and so on. He was also put through physical training to help him gain a body useful for the job. He had little time for fun and didn't know much about fun and happiness, or freedom. There was no way he could know, with his life already planned and dictated without him realizing.
Being raised without leaving the house except on rare occasions, Okarin had little chances to encounter other kids his age. Most of the time he was seeing adults who were doing dirty jobs, and other such things that a normal child usually wouldn't see until their teens, and not even in real life then. Put simply, Okarin was exposed more to the dark and evil side of the world rather than the light side of the world where others his age were normally at. Bad deeds, dirty tasks and the such were witnessed enough that even as a kid Okarin was numb to the stuff and emotionless as he watched it.
His family was quite strict, picking out every little detail he did as if it was a huge problem. It may be a huge problem in his family, but to other 'normal' families, they probably wouldn't even notice them. Though, Okarin wouldn't know because he has grown up being noticed for these things. How he ate, noticing his surroundings whenever he was doing something, how he walked, everything was being challenged, as if being raised as a soldier and not a loved child. Not that he complained, because he simply didn't know any other way to live at the moment. He had little exposure to the outside world. - Double Digits: Getting into his double digits and also middle school, Okarin finally gets his chance to leave the confines of his desolate house which is away from most other buildings, and now attending a school with people his own age. There were many things he had problems with as he tried to incorporate himself into the normal world, finding it hard such as the fear of getting punished if he did something wrong, and always worrying about the tiny details. He ended up getting more stressed than he did relaxed. It was tough for the first week, but after that it became easier.
This was because a girl in his class approached him after seeing how much trouble he was having and decided to help him through whatever he going through, using her own knowledge from some family problems to help take care of him. In most cases, Okarin was seen as quite mature in school, but when things got tough, it was always that friend of his who seemed more mature as she looked after him. It was thanks to her that Okarin began finding more things and relaxing better at school, not so tense or on guard as he was the first few weeks.
Okarin managed to make some good friends in class, and remembered the rules placed on him such as not mentioning any of his personal life or experiences to other, especially not about the Magic Association. They constantly played games together and got along well without much hassle, though they admitted they were a bit afraid of Okarin when they first saw him because of the look on his face all the time was a bit scary and emotionless. These friends became a part of how he released built up stress, and his good friend was his way of relaxing, just being with her even if they didn't talk much.
In the last year of middle school, Okarin heard how his best friend had troubles with her family. She had also been looking more depressed lately and didn't smile as much. Her parents were fighting a lot, on the rare occasion she would be used as a means of venting anger, and her grandmother had passed away as well. Of course, it took a while for Okarin to find out about this, because she was reluctant to speak of her own depressing problems. Though, she felt a bit relieved when she told Okarin whom she had helped, and would listen to her.
To cheer her up, Okarin sang her a song very quietly after school one day on the rooftop, and then after that he showed her a bit of magic hoping that she would find it inspiring and help her get her smile back. It did work and she managed to smile very brightly after that, finding it an amazing thing and wanting to see more, though giving up after Okarin said that he was doing it without permission. Unknowingly to him, he was being watched by someone his family had connections to, and they knew exactly what they had to do. Erase the person who had seen what they shouldn't do. Okarin would also be in for a grave punishment.
That night when Okarin got home, he found his parents holding and restraining his friend who he had just seen off earlier. Her mouth had been covered so she couldn't talk, and before he could do anything, he was also restrained and placed in front of her. Both of them were sitting on the ground, hands restrained by people and mouths covered. It was over quickly, yet the scene unfolded so slowly in his mind without him being able to react. Once Okarin was firmly planted on the ground, his father rammed a knife into his friend's chest, holding it in there for a few seconds before pulling it out and dropping it beside them. The rest is a blur in his mind.
Already having his Magic Crest, and with the rather unpredictable spell which a previous generation had placed in it, Okarin's emotions stirred the crest and caused his circuits to go berserk as he grabbed the knife they had used to stab his friend, and returned it to his parents, getting a few cuts himself in the process. In the end, he succeeded through sheer luck and endurance. He managed to hold his friends one last time before the life faded from her body, and that was the last time he had actual emotions display so freely. At least for now.
Somehow, after this ordeal was over, Okarin began to get the sense of something within him stirring, his feelings most likely oiling the doors to his Origin. The gears within him began to turn, and his mind started to click into place and realize what he was doing. Though, he still had no idea what it was. It was somehow related to the knowledge he had used in the fight and the music he had been performing to his friend both to cheer her up and as she died.
Because of his parent's deaths, Okarin was now burdened with his family's duties. He was quickly approached by the Magic Association who needed a fresh recruit who looked like they were easily manipulated. He accepted, mainly because he needed the funding it provided. He knew well enough how to live thanks to his parent's raising him in many different ways, a jack of all trades of sorts. He sort of resented the fact that the knowledge his parents gave him became useful to him. He was hoping to do things his way, but still had to follow their example to live.
Now a part of the Magic Association, being sent supplies in order to learn how to do his job, Okarin divided his life into three; Magic Association Okarin, Public Appearance Okarin, and Solitary Okarin. These were his different lives he had to lead. In his own time, he began learning music as a way to relieve stress and such, and carried out self study over topics that he found were useful along with the basic things for his age. He managed to get all of that knowledge into his mind easier than he used to, maybe from not having someone nagging him about what he was doing every few seconds.
During his studies and learning music, Okarin got that sense again that he was fulfilling something, as if he was doing what would be most effective for his life, a sense of working towards his ultimate goal even though he didn't know what it was. It was a strange feeling, but the more he studied and the more he learned music, the stronger that feeling became. Doing training for the Magic Association didn't quite give the same sensation, but it was somewhat similar with a different kind of emotion tied to it. - Puberty Years: Getting out of middle school and moving on to junior- and high-school, Okarin got a clear idea what his different persona's were, keeping them separate as if he had three different personalities. The personality which dealt with the Magic Association and all its evil, the personality which was shown to the public and a mask for his Magic Association identity, and the final personality which he showed to none and kept to himself at all times, not showing anyone.
During these years, Okarin went off the Magic Association's list as an exile, runaway, whatever they decided to label him. Simply put, he erased his existence from the Magic Association, having waited long enough to know how to do things properly and cutting all ties to those with the Magic Association. This is also around the time that he changed his name to Okabe Titor to hide who he really is and make it harder to be found. It seemed to work out well enough, or that they simply didn't care about him. Most likely considered as a non-threat because he was still young.
In this period of time, Okarin had no duties to carry out for the Magic Association and so he began drowning himself in knowledge, learning whatever he felt like learning at the time. Mostly it was related to electronics, physics, general science and also a bit of weapons training to keep himself ready for it. He had been trained a little bit as a kid in how to use weaponry, but only recently on how to use guns. Acquiring a weapon's license in order to own and use them, he made sure it was under his false name so that his real information couldn't be found. This is also how he got his current Pistols that he carries around.
While learning all of this stuff with somewhat ease, and understanding it as well, Okarin got that sense again as if he was fulfilling something great in his life. He still couldn't figure out what it was, but he began looking at some books about magic and found some information on Origins which he kept in his brain, not quite able to fathom it yet. Also, Okarin began focusing his magic in Sound Waves, specifically music around this time.
Because of his habit of putting up a rather tough personality that also makes him seem a bit like a mad scientist, others didn't approach him well. There were a few who came to know him after a while and he became good friends with them. They occasionally got together, and often shared laughs despite the silence they had a lot. It was a good source of stress relief just being around them and listening to them, though every now and then Okarin could take control of the conversation and entertain them with his wild made up stories.
In the solitude of his home, Okarin began putting his physical training and musical training into something useful, he became a net idol, wearing costumes he had stashed away in his closet that he bought with his own money that he has saved up. Posting up videos onto TypeTube, he does song covers and dance covers which help him exercise, have fun and practice at the same time. He somehow became popular quick to his surprise, and gained the nickname online as Kii-Kun, from Kiyoshi which he used as his username. Of course, there was no way for the Magic Association to identify him. - Entering Society: Once he was finished with school, Okarin left the town he was in, sold all the valuables in his house and the house itself and moved to Fuyuki City, where he began renting the second floor of a building in a reasonably quiet part of town. The first floor was a store for used goods and occasionally had some good parts for experiments in there. The second floor, once everything useful was put in, had a couch, no bed, a table, a computer and table set, a second room full of junk which he tinkered with on occasions as well as the microwave which he used to heat up food and another computer set on the table above it. The last thing this floor had was a shower, but only a small area and no bath, with a shower curtain as the only protection, besides the door with no lock leading to it. All in all, it was what he called home away from home. As a side note, he has an actual apartment he rents which he places all his costumes, musical items and recording equipment for his Net Idol stuff.
One of the first things Okarin did when he moved to Fuyuki City was begin gathering up other deserters or exiles from the Magic Association, contacting them by cellphone or actually traveling around the world if he really had to and keeping them within Japan. This group consisted of people tired of being pushed around by the Magic Association and with positions that could work to their advantage, such as police or something not conspicuous. This group was labeled by Okarin as "Rounders".
The first job of Rounders in the early stages of creation was to gather likely recruits for the group who were tired of the Magic Association and willing to follow orders that were given out by text every now and then, though usually simple things such as "Stand by in [town name here]" or "gather information on [subject here]". Every now and then, a more direct text or even phone call is sent which usually gathers a bunch of the members to do specific jobs such as to assassinate a certain target.
The actual tasks that Rounders do include taking out those who are interfering in the Magic World when they shouldn't be, such as a Church Member, Magic Member acting irrationally, those trying to reveal things about the Magic World and so on. Another task is to take out those from the Magic Association hunting them, the Rounders, in order to keep their group secret and operations hidden. They also clean up things that could expose the Magic World.
All Rounders use code names to protect their identity, simple things like A1 or C3, which mean Alpha 1 and Charlie 3 respectively. This is how they are grouped. Okarin has the code name "M3", meaning Master 3. Okarin was one of the four founding members of Rounders. Masters' jobs are to organize the members, lead missions, work completely in the shadows, fund the group and provide supplies for the needs such as food, weapons, rent, whatever it takes to keep the members working. As a side note, one of the Masters is a high paid member of society who 'donates' funds to the Rounders. Another side note, the first floor owner of the building Okarin stays in is another Master.
On some occasions, at least once a week, Okarin will go to his apartment for the night or two nights, or possibly a whole day, and carry out his established habit of performing in front of a camera doing a song and dance, then posting it up on TypeTube. It may not seem like it, but it is quite satisfying for him. Sometimes he even does instrument covers like Violin, Guitar or Piano. One wouldn't think he could do those but thanks to his intensive studies and a bit extra, he can pull it off.
When at what he calls the "Lab" which is his other apartment above a store, his friends occasionally visit him, and even the odd school student who comes along looking for him for a bit of knowledge. Though, not very often because people know him as a bit weird. If you can get through his delusions, you're well on your way to a waterfall of knowledge. Sometimes you have to decode it though, as he mixes a lot of things into the truth. These friends come along to use the computer, read things, be lazy or even create things, and Okarin doesn't mind.
How he manages it is unknown, but all Okarin can ever be seen eating or drinking is unhealthy stuff. Instant meals and junk food are always seen to be around him when he decides to eat, and his favorite drink is Dokupe (Doctor Pepper). His meal times are also uneven, just eating when he feels he needs to, though having a drink quite often throughout the day. He gets rid of all the junk, or rather uses it all while he trains at night and/or alone. His mental and physical training causes him to need sugar more often for stimulus to the brain and calories to his body to thicken his rather thin build.
Okarin plays around with a lot of the stuff he gets, creating whatever tests his knowledge and tinkers with proper products to see if he can make something different out of it. One example of a tampered with item, which he calls "Magical Gadgets" (MG), is a claymore modified to release a smoke screen when tripped. If he can't remember the name he gave it, he makes one up as he uses it or plays around with it. There are many different things, like some headphones he made into a controller, but is useless without a proper game made for it. He has tried tinkering with making virtual worlds as well, for example placing your mind into the game you're playing, but no successes so far.
Hearing a thing about Fuyuki City, Okarin learned that there was a thing called the Holy Grail War, something relating to Magic, and he found it interesting for a multitude of reasons as he discovered more things about it. He began to figure out that should one take place, the Rounders would be taking part in it often to clean up the mess Masters left, and the things that it did were amazing from what he could tell. On instinct, he wanted to know more about it and studied more and more about it, even using some Rounders sources to get the information.
Expanding on his knowledge of the Holy Grail War, Okarin began to study the different Heroic Spirits that could summoned, learning different mythologies and histories such as Norse, Welsh, eastern, and so on. This would give him an upper hand in whatever would occur, participant or not, because it was already decided he was in the town this War would occur. Of course, it may take him a while to realize who each Heroic Spirit is because things such as History and Mythology can only describe, and don't have visual references. History changes as time passes as well and so cannot always be accurate.
At this point, Okarin gained yet another key to his origin, and this one was rather strong mostly because of his other times when he began to understand it. The previous times it was a strong feeling he had, but this time, now that he had knowledge and understanding of origins, he knew what he felt was related to his origin. At first he had no idea what it was and so was left wondering for a while as he held on to that sensation that felt like his head was being wracked with pain. The sensation of coming close to his origin, or the sensation of having his origin touched.
Unconsciously, as he was learning about the Holy Grail War, Okarin began wishing for something but he himself didn't realize it. Unconsciously, he had a wish for the Grail which was to have all the knowledge he ever wanted in his brain, but not available to him so that he could enjoy trying to discover the information in his head and call upon it using his Origin without remembering it afterward, that way he could have fun. Okarin himself doesn't know what his wish is and has to search for it himself.
After realizing, even though in his subconscious mind, that he wanted knowledge above all else, Okarin felt his Origin strongly and realized what it was. He realized that his Origin was Knowledge and Music. He wanted, above all other things, knowledge and music. Music was how he supported his life and it was a part of him, and he was always seeking knowledge to better himself and to enjoy himself as well. Knowing this, Okarin has decided to follow the ways of his Origin and began understanding how to use it.
Okarin is referred to as a Delusional or Mad Scientist because of his lifestyle and personality. His attitude and pranks, as well as his tinkering and knowledge seeking brought forth this title which others call him. He could be called something else, but because he constantly wears a Lab Coat, they believe him to be a scientist when really all he is is... something that he doesn't know. Though, Scientist comes close enough for him. People also wonder how he supports himself because no one sees him work. His experiments and life is paid for by his early childhood jobs, family money and Rounders funds. Though, with this abundance of money, he is still a prudent spender and tries his best to get the cheapest things.
Okarin refers to himself as Kyou Mai, or simply Kyouma for short. This is his cover name he uses for a lot of things such as online chat boards, games he plays, and also calls himself that in front of others. It is actually the name he gave his Magus self and it serves as camouflage to those around him. The reason this serves as a cover is because his real name, which he gives to others, is Okabe Titor, a false name. Nicknamed to Okarin. This is the personality he uses which speaks with lots of delusions and is the mask that Kyouma uses. Okarin often talks on his phone to no one and gives what sounds like a status report and says things about an Organization and Rounders who are doing dark jobs, as well as mention things being the choice of "The World", in other words Fate. When he actually does make real calls reporting things like this, everyone suspects that it's a delusion as well. Organization refers to the Magic Association.
Closer to the current date, Okarin has found out that he has been chosen for the Holy Grail War. At the time, he was in his lab and a few of his friends were over. When he saw the mark appear on his left hand, he couldn't help but begin laughing cynically for no apparent reason. It gave his friends a good fright. Before saying anything, he began wearing a glove which covered the Command Seal. The sentence he spoke as he stop laughing, with a grin wide on his face, was this: "So, this is the choice of "The World".". The World being spoken in English.
- - Is chosen for the Holy Grail War
Masteries //
- Mana: 23 Circuits, however only 5 are usable. These 5 circuits each produce a max of 12, making a total of 60 units with usable circuits. Other circuits may occasionally open up such as when overloading the original 5 circuits. This occurs because the remaining 18 circuits are "blocked" in a way and only open when exceeding limits. May have something to do with emotional state. With all circuits, a maximum of 276 units can be produced. As a bit of extra information, Okarin's mental trigger is that of a Violin being played.
Adding the 14 circuits with a 10 unit output from the Magic Crest for a total of 140 units, Okarin has 37 Circuits with a total of 200 units with an overcharge total of 416 units. - Unarmed Combat: D Rank Category. Frankly speaking, Okarin has no way to really fight. He has no style, and rather just throws punches at the opponent. Mainly only fights in self defense.
- Armed Combat: D Rank Category. Okarin has the "Instinct" of understanding a weapon he picks up, though his actual information on it may be little. To put it simply, Okarin can pick up a weapon and use it, though he doesn't understand the skills involved.
- Stamina: D Rank Category. Okarin is an average athlete when it comes to endurance, though still seems to be rather unfit because of his eating and drinking habits. Though, because of the same reason one could be surprised he's not even more unfit than he is.
- Agility: D Rank Category. An average person in both speed and agility. Okarin is capable enough to do what he needs to do but has no skills in how to do it, though does know how to pace himself. Simply put, Okarin isn't a sports person but can still be part of the team.
- Spells/Abilities/Skills: B Rank Category. One of the only things that Okarin is good at. This is mainly because it was something he was born with and naturally influenced to do. Okarin may not know much, but what he does know he has done well. It should be noted that although he is highly proficient in his Spells, Okarin rarely ever uses them beyond those which help him such as his Magic Crest.

Specialized Info //
Elemental Affiliation: Wind
Specialization: Sound Waves, specifically Singing/Vocals.
Origin: Dogma Of The Gate. Dogma, a Doctrine of the Belief Okarin holds which he refers to as "The Gate". The Gate is all that Okarin, no, Kiyoshi is, in body and soul. The Gate is a symbolism to him, representing the Gate within him which, inside, holds his Origin. Put into an image, it could be described as an endless room with words, musical notes and equations flying everywhere. When not in use, everything is a mess inside this endless world beyond the gate, but the moment Kiyoshi thinks of something specific, such as a song or a Physics Theory, all words or notes related to it begins to revolve around the person inside the room. All of this knowledge is the source of who Okarin is. He seeks knowledge and music. This is also how he composes songs, by finding tunes he likes, scrambling the notes or using mathematical equations, and then rearranging them into a song. A song of the Soul. A song of the Origin.
Dogma Of The Gate. Doctrine of Knowledge. Belief of Learning.
The driving force that makes Okarin who he is. He seeks knowledge and gives music. The two parts that make up the being called Okarin. Without these two things, Okarin would not be Okarin but someone, or possibly no one. Okarin has the ever present urge to learn new things. Thanks to this urge and the help of his Magic Crest, he has done just that. Learning whatever he feels like learning, he goes about different subjects and learning different things, mainly staying around Science such as Physics. One would think that as a Magus, he would pursue something more magical. He has been tempted to become an Alchemist purely because of his fascination with understanding the world from a scientific viewpoint. Okarin, in an illusion-like scene, would be seen as attempting to grab and pull towards him the moon, reaching for it with every part of his being. The moon, an object of interest and knowledge which can always be seen but never reached.
The other part of Okarin's Origin is his music. Although done undercover and without being known by others, Okarin will sing and sometimes perform. Music is part of who he is, an unchangeable fact that he could not survive without being able to sing. Music is what gives him confidence and drives him forward, something that he can give to others instead of being selfish with it to keep it for himself. Music which can be given freely and part of his world. If there is some piece of knowledge he learns, chances are he could use it musically in one way or another. This is the part of his Origin which Okarin would prefer to keep hidden, only doing it under dire situations, purely because this reveals his true being. The emotion that can come from music, the history they can bring, the knowledge they can express, music and songs can do many things.
Magic Crest: [Creeping Blossom]. The Creeping Blossom Magic Crest takes on the shape of a Sakura Tree branch which seems to creep along the body of the person, growing as the Crest is expanded. Each of the blossoms on the branch represents a previous owner of the Crest. This Crest glows a bright pink when in use which causes Okarin a bit of discomfort because it doesn't suit his image.
Creeping Blossom has two special abilities unique to the bloodline. The first is called "Lock". This allows the user to seal their own Magic Circuits that they naturally have which can be used for many things. These could include the means to hide their presence, a way to train individual circuits or to even restrict their own capabilities. The second ability is "Unlock". This does the reverse of Lock, opening up sealed Magic Circuits. It should be noted that when Locking a circuit, the Prana within is distributed to other Circuits and vice versa when Unlocking. This can be both an advantage and disadvantage. It can protect some circuits and help focus on specific spells with certain circuit, but it can also overload the open circuits. If unlocking, the circuit must be supplied with half the amount it can hold. Example, to unlock Circuit B (10 units), Circuit A (10 units) must give the other 5 units.

Rank:[/b] C
Element:[/b] Ether
Type:[/b] Support
Incantation:[/b] N/A. Stored in Magic Crest.
Description:[/b] Activates and enhances the Brain's ability to take in information. The duration of this spell is dependent on how long the user wishes to use it, but the longer it is used the more harm it may cause mentally. This spell puts the brain to work at full power to take in every detail they see, allowing them to memorize whatever they see with their eyes, hear with their ears, smell with their nose, taste with their tongue or feel with their skin. This enhances the ability to learn new things as well as to understand something they are laying their eyes upon, such as a new spell. For example, someone could be using an original spell and Comprehensive Understanding would allow the user to comprehend the specifics of that spell while looking at it, though the more senses used, the better the understanding.

Description:[/b] Anger. This is a multi-purpose spell that isn't really an intentional one but nevertheless useful. At times of great pain, sorrow, anger or fury, a negative and overwhelming emotion, the user screams or shouts at the top of their lungs. This sound wave does multiple things. The first is a self buff, causing the user to strengthen their range and lose all sense of pain and also have increased strength and endurance. Enemies will be fear-stricken if unprepared for such a shriek and also if they have low magic resistance. This can also affect allies in two ways; the first being negatively as it causes allies to back off as if they were afraid, or enrage them to share in the user's agony. Similar to a low level Mad Enhancement. Blocking ears doesn't help as it resonates with one's mind.

Type:[/b] Sound, Offensive
Incantation:[/b] N/A
Description:[/b] A more direct attack that uses vibration and the sound of impact in order to cause damage. The user directs their prana through their point of contact or attack and releases it in the form of vibrations and sound at the target. Usually a palm thrust, the user strikes the opponent and then uses those vibrations to disturb the opponent in a multitude of ways. The most effective and painless way is to stop the heart by disrupting the rhythm, giving a quick and painless death as the blood stops flowing. Another could be to shake the brain. In some ways, this could be called mercy, and in others it could be called torture or inhumane depending on the user.[/size]
