Instructor Kitagawa Silverleaf
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Silverleaf has grey hair, light skin, and has a lean figure.
Identifying Characteristics
Silverleaf, being a practitioner of the Gentle Fist, has the characteristic style of eye that practitioners have. His eyes are almost completely white with his iris being barely different from the rest of his eye. His eyes also seem to have a very slight glow to them.
Special abilities
Silverleaf is a practitioner of the Way of the Gentle Fist. As such, his prime abilities include his Inner Sight eyes that allow him to see a person's natural energy flow and the ability to strike in specific parts of the energy flow in order to maximize damage output without inputting as much raw physical force. This also has the ability of interrupting certain effects like magical boosts or regeneration.
Silverleaf also has a defensive ability up his sleeve. If needed, he can begin to spin around rapidly while releasing ki energy all around him. This rotation combined with ki release creates a barrier that makes projectile attacks nigh useless and enemies that try to approach him could end up being sent flying away.
And of course, Silverleaf is a master in hand-to-hand combat. His unarmed strikes are thrown with great speed and can deal a great amount of damage, whether he's attacking the opponent's tenketsu or not.
Apparel & Accessories
Silverleaf's general attire is a green short-sleeved martial arts robe tied with a black belt at his waist. He wears a matching-colored pair of slacks.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Kitagawa Silverleaf was born in a village in Stocanburg in the year 221. For most of his days in Stocanburg, Silverleaf spent time doing physical training and meditating within nature. However, when he got older, he felt as if he was missing something. There were things out there that he was missing because he lived in a country that was hyper reclusive towards the rest of the world. Not only that, but he felt as if his home was repressing him of his potential.
At the age of 100, he managed to leave his hometown and country altogether in order to better learn about the outside world and find new purpose in his life. A few years of wandering eventually led him to Keynsling City. Wanting to hone his martial abilities even more, he began to attend the city's Academy of Martial Talent. Many years of training and learning later, he would soon find himself to not only as an instructor at the academy, but also as one of the most adept martial artists within the region.
Around the year 512, during a particularly rigorous sparring session against his graduating students, Silverleaf activated a new ability that he would later find out to be Inner Sight, the secret ability of the rare yet powerful martial arts style known as the Way of the Gentle Fist. For the next many years, he would begin to train himself to master the Gentle Fist art.
