Alien Nanotechnology Physiology - Masashi's alien nanotechnology physiology is a unique and complex system that sets him apart from other humans. This technology was not naturally present in his body, but rather it was implanted by the Intergalactic Time Department who recruited him specifically for his assassin skills. The nanotechnology, also known as 'nanites,' is a collection of microscopic machines that work together to enhance Masashi's physical abilities and alter his body in ways that were previously unimaginable. At its core, Masashi's nanotechnology functions by constantly repairing and rebuilding his cells at a rapid rate. This allows him to heal from injuries at an incredibly accelerated pace, making him nearly indestructible. The nanites also have the ability to enhance his strength, speed, and agility, making him a formidable opponent in any physical altercation. In addition, the nanotechnology has given Masashi a heightened sense of awareness, allowing him to process information and react more quickly than the average human. The nanites in his body also cause him to look forever young. Despite being a man in his 40s, the constant regeneration and modification of his body's cells slow down his aging process. However, as with any advanced technology, there are drawbacks. One of the most noticeable effects is the manifestation of two secondary genders: Alpha and Beta. This is a result of the nanites altering his hormonal balance and causing changes in his body chemistry. The Alpha gender presents as a more dominant and aggressive personality, while the Beta gender is more submissive and nurturing. This dual gender presentation can be confusing and challenging for Masashi to navigate at times, as he must learn to balance both of them. Overall, Masashi's alien nanotechnology physiology is a double-edged sword, providing him with incredible abilities but also presenting challenges and difficulties in his daily life.

Gun Proficiency - Masashi has spent years at the Intergalactic Time Department, a secret organization tasked with preserving the balance of time and space. As a member of this elite group, Masashi was given access to advanced technology and training that allowed him to master the use of any gun, whether it be a weapon from Earth or from alien worlds. Throughout his time at the Intergalactic Time Department, Masashi was constantly exposed to new and powerful guns from various galaxies. He was given the opportunity to train with these weapons and hone his skills until he became a master of gunplay. His dedication and focus on perfecting his craft allowed him to develop a deep understanding of the mechanics and functions of each gun, giving him the ability to use them to their full potential. This extensive training not only made Masashi a formidable opponent in battles but also made him a valuable asset to the Intergalactic Time Department. Masashi's mastery of guns is not just limited to one particular type or brand. He has the unique ability to pick up any gun and master it almost instantly. This is a result of his years of training and his natural talent for understanding and manipulating complex weapons. Whether it is a traditional firearm or a futuristic laser gun, Masashi can wield it with precision and deadly accuracy. His expertise in gunplay has made him a valuable ally to other members of the Intergalactic Time Department and has also earned him a reputation as one of the most skilled gun users in the entire universe.

Personality: Masashi is a man of many interests and hobbies, all of which revolve around physical activity and adventure. He has always been passionate about staying fit and healthy, which is why he spends a significant amount of his free time exercising, biking, hiking, mountain climbing, and weight lifting. These activities not only keep him in top shape, but they also provide him with the thrill and adrenaline rush that he craves. Masashi also has a love for drinking scotch, which he sees as a way to unwind and relax after a long day. However, his love for physical challenges doesn't stop there. He also enjoys arm wrestling and hunting, which allow him to push his limits and test his strength. His love for the outdoors is evident in his fondness for camping, where he can disconnect from the world and reconnect with nature. Despite his tough and adventurous exterior, Masashi has a soft spot for his family. As the first-born son of the main Saito family branch of assassins, he has a lot of responsibility on his shoulders. He has five other siblings, all of whom have been raised to become skilled assassins like him.

While he cannot interfere with their lives, Masashi would do anything to protect them, even if it means sacrificing his own life. It's not their fault that they were born into a family of assassins, and Masashi understands the weight of their upbringing. He may not have been there for them in the past, but now that he's back in Tokyo, he is determined to make up for lost time and be there for them whenever they need him. Masashi's job as a time traveler investigator for the Intergalactic Time Department is a testament to his intelligence and dedication. He has been working for them for eighteen years, possibly even more, and has proven himself to be one of the best in his field. However, his pride is both his biggest strength and weakness. Masashi is a narcissistic asshole who will do anything to prove himself and come out on top. He takes great pride in his skills and abilities, and labels such as acquaintances, friends, and buddies mean nothing to him. He has a difficult time trusting others, and this often leads to him working alone. Despite his somewhat abrasive personality, Masashi is a force to be reckoned with, both in his personal and professional life.

Occupation: Time Traveler Investigator

School: ----

Place of Living: Amestia Inn > Room #000 (choose available room)

Original or Canon: Original

Face Claim: Cowboy Bebop - Spike Spiegel

Appearance: Masashi is tall and lean in appearance and he stands at the height of 6'1". He has dark green hair and brown eyes, traits he inherited from his Omega father whereas his sisters inherited their features from their Alpha mother. Despite being older, Masashi is actually older. He still looks the same as if he were still in his late twenties. This is possibly due to the alien nanotechnology that made him pysically age slower. He is usually seen dressed in leisure suits and always wearing black boots. He often has a cigarette between his lips, whether rain or shine. Because of his line of work, his attire changes depending on his mission and where he is in order to fit in to the timeline he's placed himself in.


History: Masashi, the eldest child and first son of the Saitō family, was born into a life filled with high expectations and heavy responsibilities. From a young age, he was groomed to be the next in line to carry on the Saitō assassin traditions. His parents instilled in him the importance of upholding the family's legacy and continuing their influence within the Sendai yakuza branch. Masashi's entire future was predetermined, and he was expected to follow in the footsteps of his ancestors without question. Despite these immense expectations, Masashi's school years were filled with mediocrity. His academic and extracurricular records showed him as a lackluster student who was unlikely to achieve much in life. However, this was not an accurate reflection of Masashi's true abilities. He simply had no interest in conforming to society's standards and expectations. He didn't want to spend his life bowing down to those in power, especially if they were unworthy of their positions. He yearned to be the one in control, the one who made others tremble at his feet as they begged for forgiveness.

Despite his rebellious spirit, Masashi excelled in his training as an assassin. He was a natural, and his skills were unmatched. As a result, he caught the attention of other powerful families who sought to strengthen their ties with the Saitōs through marriage. To the outside world, Masashi was honored to be so highly desired. But in reality, he found none of these suitors worthy of his hand in marriage, let alone his bed. He saw them as mere plebeians who could never understand his true desires and ambitions. Soon after graduating high school, Masashi suddenly disappeared without a trace. There was no explanation, no goodbye. The his Alpha mother Tsubaki was forced to fabricate a story about his whereabouts, claiming that he had gone off to college and enlisted in the Japanese military. In reality, Masashi had chosen to leave his predetermined life behind and forge his own path. He was determined to break free from the constraints of his family's expectations and make a name for himself on his own terms. The mystery surrounding his disappearance only added to his allure, making him an even more enigmatic figure within the yakuza world.

Masashi's journey with the ITD was not an easy one. He had to undergo rigorous training and adapt to living in a completely different environment. He spent countless hours learning about different alien civilizations and their customs, as well as mastering new languages. It was a challenging but exciting experience for him. Being the first human to be recruited into the organization, Masashi felt a great sense of responsibility to use his skills and abilities to protect the current timeline and others. As he delved deeper into his work, he discovered that the current rimeline was slowly being corrupted by unknown forces. This only fueled his determination to recruit more humans and expand the organization's reach. Masashi's unique position as both an Alpha and Beta, thanks to the alien nanotechnology implanted in his body, made him a valuable asset to the ITD. The nanites not only repaired any damage to his body, but they also slowed down his aging process. However, this came at a cost, as he had to learn to navigate having two secondary genders. Nevertheless, Masashi was grateful for the advanced technology bestowed upon him, as it allowed him to adapt to any situation and heal almost instantly. His journey with the ITD was not just about fulfilling his duties, but also embracing his newfound identity and using it to protect the Earth and the entire Milky Way galaxy.

Masashi is just skilled in the art of navigating through different timelines, he's also proficient in handling all types of weapons. From standard guns to advanced and even alien blasters, Masashi has mastered them all. He's spent years training and perfecting his aim, making him a formidable opponent in any battle. He knows that different guns require different approaches, and he's always prepared for any scenario. Not only is Masashi equipped with a vast arsenal, but he also possesses a two-face watch communicator that serves as a computer and connects to the ITD database. This sleek device not only allows him to communicate with his team and access information, but it also has audio and visual features that aid him in his missions. But that's not all, the watch is actually a time traveling device that enables Masashi to travel anywhere through time. Whether it be to the past, present, or alternate realities, Masashi can go wherever he needs to in order to complete his missions. Masashi is bound by rules and regulations when it comes to time travel, and he always makes sure to abide by them. Throughout his travels, Masashi has encountered numerous greedy individuals who seek to manipulate and control the galaxy. But time and time again, he has intervened and saved the universe from their grasp. In his office, awards hang proudly on the walls, serving as a constant reminder of his successes and motivating him to continue capturing, interrogating, and overcoming the next obstacle that comes his way.

Despite his tough exterior and dangerous profession, Masashi is not immune to human desires. He has had many lovers from different female-oriented species, but he always keeps his personal life separate from his work. He never indulges in his lust until the job is done, and his focus remains on completing his missions. Many have tried to trap Masashi in marriage, relationships, or claim that he is the father of their child, but he always manages to come out on top. He knows the importance of not getting tied down and has taken precautions to ensure that he doesn't have any children until he's ready. Masashi takes medication that makes him temporarily sterile, giving him the freedom to focus on his career without any distractions. While he may entertain the idea of settling down and starting a family someday, for now, he remains committed to his job. As a time traveling investigator, Masashi has always kept his distance from his family. He felt that it was better for them if he stayed away, not wanting to put them in danger. However, a recent development has forced him to return to his hometown of Tokyo, Japan, and reunite with his siblings. It's a bittersweet reunion for Masashi, as he realizes that he has missed out on a lot by being away. But as always, his duty as a time traveler comes first, and he must balance his personal life with his job.

Kira is a stoic individual. Although originally born human and had a family, she has no memory or knowledge of them. The reason for this is that she was taken from them as a young child, along with having her memories of them wiped. The corporation in the Yokai Realm that exists parallel to the human world and calls itself Yokai Inc. is the one that did this to her. Kira had been subjected to the life of a test subject where she was experimented on and used like many others to create obedient but powerful Yokai monsters they could control to do what they wanted. Kira was no exception. Her DNA had been combined with that of an unknown demon breed. Due to her life in the first Yokai Inc. facility, she grew up training how to use the newfound abilities she inherited from the demon DNA that was implanted inside her body, forcing her to grow horns as well as causing her height to increase from that of normal girls. She was nothing more than an empty shell that followed orders. She wanted to escape such a life, and the destruction of the facility gave her that chance. However, she never got that opportunity, for she'd been tranquilized and later awakened in the new facility. It was there she'd been given the option to have freedom in the human world, but not without a price. To be free, she had to agree to find the escaped test subjects, retrieve the more useful ones, and kill the others listed that they deemed worthless.

As horrifying as that was, Kira no longer wanted to be cooped up in a lab anymore and accepted it. They made the preparations to have her be situated in the human world, Tokyo, Japan, to be specific. She was left at an orphanage until the Tenma family later adopted her. A human family that already had a daughter but wanted another child. Kira was confused as to why these people adopted her, but her time with them showed that humans weren't so bad. She especially became protective of her adoptive younger sister, Ayaka. As for her mission to find the test subjects as she'd been ordered to, she was expected to still do that, but she was left alone to get settled in enough with the family that took her in only to, in a sense, have them be used against her if she didn't get to work. She'd even been tempted with information about her birth family if she does what she is told. They'll be willing to give it to her if she completes her mission. Her family is unaware of her past upbringing before adopting her, and because of that, Kira feels she has no choice but to do as she's been ordered to protect them. She has the files of the test subjects she needs to find, but when she has no leads on her targets, Kira has a typical, normal high school life despite being very different from other girls her age. She tries her hardest to attempt to be a normal girl but knows that she'll never be normal. More than anything, she wants answers about what her life was like before Yokai Inc. and to make sure the family she has now remains safe.



Befriending Kira isn't easy. Her past and current positions prevent her from getting close to anyone. She doesn't want anyone to die because of her since she is fully aware that there are dangerous monsters in the Yokai Realm, and many of the more powerful ones work for Yokai Inc. They have no qualms about using anyone she's close to to keep her on a tight leash. Deep down, Kira would love to make friends with others and feel normal, but as long as she is connected to such dangerous people, she knows that will never be possible. At most, Kira is acquainted with other people but isn't close to any of them. She's nice for the most part, but she knows that many find it difficult to talk to her because she doesn't open up so easily. The only person she is close to is her adoptive sister Ayaka and their parents. Protecting them is Kira's main priority over making friends. The fewer innocent people involved with her, the better is how she sees it. Anyone interested in trying to befriend Kira needs to be aware that doing so will have your character getting involved with Yokai Inc. by possibly becoming a target to use against Kira. Also, open to other ideas regarding befriending her as well. Feel free to toss what you have.



The obvious enemy that Kira would have is Yokai Inc. She wants to be free of them after having gotten used to living in the human world, being taken in by a human family and accepted by them. She doesn't want to go back to being locked up and experimented on like she was before when she was a child. They've also shown that they're willing to use her adoptive family as leverage if Kira doesn't do what she's told. As such, she's forced to track down the test subjects that'd escaped from the first facility and bring back to them the more useful ones and kill the others. Kira hates that she has to do this, but she's doing it not only to protect her family but also because the board of directors is holding information about her biological family from her, and she wants that information as well. Even if it's just to know that they're alive and doing fine. Kira clearly doesn't know the real reason why they want the useful test subjects returned, but she is clearly unknowingly a puppet in a very dangerous game. That said, if Kira manages to kill any of the test subjects Yokai Inc. doesn't want, it would probably be two to three of them. It wouldn't sit well with her and, of course, traumatize her, so that is something to keep in mind. They may be NPC test subjects that can be given any name that's mentioned, or if someone wants to write that scene out, they are more than welcome to be a part of that. The reason for the less amount of test subjects killed is because the goal point is for Kira to come across a target that is in the loop on what everyone at Yokai Inc. is doing, which would make her realize she's been lied to all along and her new mission would be set out to bring the entire organization down. So that means a playable test subject character would be needed. If anyone is interested, feel free to reach out.



It is possible that Kira was supposed to originally present as an Alpha when she came of age. However, thanks to the demon DNA, her genetic makeup changed to where she presents as a Dominant Alpha. This means that, like Dominant Omegas, she is more sensitive to the scents of others around her. She's more irritable, nauseous, and dizzy when her Rut is about to start. Her scent is also stronger, which can attract the attention of Omegas in the area who are seeking out an Alpha to be their mate. Kira honestly doesn't pay attention to her sexual needs in the same manner that most do. That doesn't mean she isn't aware of what her body needs during her Rut. It's just Kira doesn't actively seek out someone to spend it with and prefers to be alone, even if she doesn't want to. Similar to friends, forming a bond with someone would put that person in danger, so she actively avoids romantic relationships. Would Kira like to have a partner? Sure, if it was possible, and there was no chance of them getting hurt because of her involvement with Yokai Inc. Not against the idea of Kira having an interest. It just won't be easy. She's never shown an interest in anyone, and even if someone were to approach her, she'd feel very awkward and unsure of how to respond to a confession as she isn't used to such attention. She stands out naturally because of how tall she is, and she has visible horns on her head. Kira believes no one would see her in such a way, but it would be nice to have that proven wrong. To not be overwhelmed with the side effects that she feels before and during her Rut, she is prescribed much stronger suppressant medication. It doesn't entirely get rid of the side effects she feels. The medication makes it a tad easier to get through it to where she isn't left bedridden. So, if anyone is interested in a romantic plot idea, definitely all ears to see what others have in mind that could get this area started later down the line.

Below are suggested occupations as well as existing occupations that are on the forum itself. Although many of these jobs will not have sub-boards made for them, this thread will help keep members informed of what characters have jobs and where they work. There will be many characters that work in the same profession and because of that, we will not only need your character's first and last name, job position, and name of the business they work for.
