Name: Tamashi Hashira (Tamashi means "soul" in japanese and Hashira means "Pillar")

Monster Parent: The Hitobashira

Age: About 16001? I keep loosing track...

Killer Style: I enjoy wearing very traditional Japanese
clothing, with just a slight twist of modern. The darker shade, the better. Sometimes i think that bright colors attract to much attention, which i do not like.

Freaky Flaw: Because i havent been out much, im really shy around other monsters. I try my best to avoid them as much as i can, but i do have a few friends.

Favorite Color: Grey and White

Favorite Food: Pizza is always a good late night snack (what? Did you think it would be something asian?)

Pet Peeve: When multiple people talk to me at once. Im not very good around lots of people...

Favorite Activity: Poetry is a very good outlet for me to fuel my emotions. Sometimes i get pretty emotional, knowing that i left all my friends and family in Japan such a long time ago when i was set into that wall. It also makes me happy knowing that ive accomplished something.

Pet: I have a little ghost puppy named Fuzaketa, which means playful in Japanese. She is the only one that keeps me company 24/7 she died about the same time and place I did, so we became good friends after death. Im also 50% positive that he is a Japanese Chin dog.

Friends: Spectra Vondergeist and Twyla

Favorite School Subject: Clawculous. I am quite intellegent considering that I have nothing else to do but study. A close second is Dead Languages

Lest Favorite Subject: Home Ick. I have survived off of pizza and take out my whole life, and i have no idea how to cook... Toast and popcorn for everybody!


So yea! Thats it! I just love this character, it would be the coolest thing ever to win her, but if i dont, i hope you make a good choice! Thanks!

Name: Keiko Hitobashira
Age: 16..but add a zero.
Monster Parent: The Hitobashiras
Killer Style: Cultural Japanese clothing, though I like to add a modern twist to it. It also HAS to be black, as it goes very well with my pale complexion.
Freaky Flaw: Being a Hitobashira, I have to guard the building I was buried in, so it's kind of like I'm grounded for life, except for going to school or on holiday occasionally.
Favourite Colour: Black, of course!
Favourite Food: Nothing is better than relaxing while eating tofu! It's delicious!
Biggest Pet Peeve: When I go on holiday, I hate being buried in the sand. Last time I got buried, I died!
Favourite Activity: I used to love to dance, though it brings back horrible memories. Now I like to draw.
Pet: My Shiba Inu named Kin. Her name means 'golden' since that's the colour of her fur!
Friends: Lagoona, Frankie and Spectra.
Favourite School Subject: Ge-ogre-phy. I love learning about other countries and cultures, it's rather fascinating for a ghoul who can't go hardly anywhere.
Least Favourite School Subject: Culinary Arts. I enjoy cooking, though it makes it less fun because I can't cook, I mean AT ALL.

So this is mine hope you like it I just love this oc so I would be amazed if I got chose!!!!!!

Name: Kokoa Isobe
Hitobashira Child

Age: It's not very polite to ask a lady her true age. O: (17,164 years old)

Killer Style:
A little bit of this and a little bit of that and walla!
I present to you a perfected design that displays grace, femininity and a side of my traditional Japanese culture.
In other words, my parents pick my threads but I snip some parts and loosen it around some areas.
I'm not a rebel but I can't stand looking like everyone else.. I'm invisible enough as it is.

Freaky Flaw:
I thought this would be very obvious but if you insist, I wish I wasn't a Hitobashira.
I want to travel the world.. and not guard an old shrine that rarely receives visits.
If anyone is an angry spirit about anything, it's me.
I just keep the grudge to myself because it would make my parents very displeased.

I guess you could say my biggest fear besides being trapped here for all eternity is the scolding I'll get from my parents if I'm not.

Favorite Colour:
Figures, I am covered in black and you still can't tell?

Favorite Food:
Miso Soup warms me right up when I feel chilly to the bone.

Biggest Pet Peeve:
My.. parents.
As much as I love them, I want the freedom to go where I want and be what I want. That means, being more than a guardian of a shrine.
I have dreams of visiting France and learning the customs of other cultures, experiencing that the world is bigger than what it feels like when being stuck in one miserable location for so long.

Favorite Activity:
I like to learn other languages.. might even consider becoming a polyglot.
It's just as Aladdin says, "shining, shimmering, splendid" world out there to discover and become a part of.
If only I were someone's Jasmine..

Pet:
My pet is an Oniyanma (aka dragonfly).
I named him Boniface which means 'Good Fate' in French.
It certainly was to find a friend like him.

Friends:
Leonard Chavanne (French Penpal.. maybe even a lil crush)
Taro Tomika (Classmate)
Ayako Shiba (Family friend)

Favorite School Subject:
Geography.
It makes me feel closer to other parts of the world I am yet to explore.
Carlos Ruiz Zafón says, “Paris is the only city in the world where starving to death is still considered an art.”
So I am sure that at the very least, Paris would accept me as I am.

Least Favorite School Subject:
Mathematics.
It's an incomprehensible language, seriously. I understand my hiragana, katakana and kanji just fine.
But numbers?
It gives me an ichi-ni (play on words: itchy knee) which is very unpleasant.

SmartSmack [2013-07-06 20:13:06 +0000 UTC]

Name: Amaya Burijji (Her last name actually means bridge hehe)
Daughter of a Hitobashira
Age:1599 years old (almost 1600!)
Killer Style: Traditional Japanese clothing. I very much like the clothing my mother and grandmother wear, and I think it fits my personality.
Freaky Flaw: To be honest,I don't like to stray far from home! It takes effort just to get to school in the morning because I have a feeling that if I go then something bad may happen to my home. I also do not like to be crowded or in a small space for long periods of time.
Favorite color: I like the color of rain in the night. (Note; Amaya means night rain in Japanese.)
Favorite Food: I prefer a nice bowl of steaming noodles,seasoned to perfection.
Pet Peeve: Big crowds bother me a lot. It blows because I love live music, but I can never go to concerts because of the seas of people.
Favorite Activity: Reading,writing and listening to music in my bedroom.
Pet: I found a turtle swimming around the lake nearby my house. I decided to keep him. His name is Hachūrui.
Friends: (Is it okay if I make these up later? As I develop a character I choose friends :3)
Favorite School Subject: I like musick best. I really like sharing my feelings and opinions through lyrics and sounds, it makes everything sound beautiful.
Least favorite school subject: I don't like history at all. Learning about what happened when I wa buried brings back awful memories,and it's hard enough to forget without that class.

What a cute character design^^
Name: Musashi Saigo
Parent: Hitobashira
Age: (I had to go and look up the Hitobashira, I didn't want to make her too young or too old for that time period) 1600 years old
Killer style: Open to new clothing preferations, but tends to feel more comfortable in her own style of 17th century era wear, even if it's been slightly altered by modern fashion designers.
Freaky Flaw: Buildings tend to shake and become weakened when she dances.
Favorite color: Black
Favorite food: A simple bowl of rice and millet
Biggest pet peeve: When she is asked to dance for someone. Although she was buried because her dancing skills are extraordinary, that does not mean she wants to do it. Last time she did, it got her killed.
Favorite activity: Cooking, dressing up fancy...anything that reminds her of her previous life.
Favorite school subject: History, since she's excellent with remembering it, and drama, as it reminds her of the festivals and parties she used to attend.
Least favorite school subject: Math, she was never very good at it and didn't learn any of it when she was still alive.
Pet: A black cricket name Korogi, whom she can pretty much take anywhere she wants to, considering Korogi is a...cricket...
Friends: Spectra Vondergeist, Jinafire Long, Twyla, Scarah Screams, Jackson Jekyll, Operetta

I tried to make her interests/activities, etc. and the like as closely related to the Sengoku period in Japan as possible, so she's at least somewhat historically correct. I hope you like it /)030(\

Name: Yui Onada

Monster Parent: Hitobashira

Age: 16,000. I'm fine with just 16. 

Killer Style: I've grown attached to modern versions of clothes from my culture. Silk has recently become my favorite fabric. It's smooth and easy to move around in. 

Freaky Flaw: When I'm scared, I tense up and turn to stone. I'm thinking this has to do with all of the cement they put over my body all those years ago. 

Favorite Color: Ironically enough, I'm in love with stony colors! Grey and black really appeal to me. 

Favorite Food: A big bowl of ramen with a bit of egg.  

Biggest pet peeve: It really bothers me when monsters believe I can possess them. I was buried alive, for goodness' sake! The last thing I want is to be stuck in another tomb, let alone another monster... 

Favorite Activity: I [i]try[/i] to cook. I can't do it to save my unlife. 

Favorite School Subject: Home Ick! Cooking is a little pastime of mine, and I need to get better at it. I can't fillet fish for anything! 

Least Favorite School Subject: Drama! I always get the role of the villainess or something of the like because I was "angry" once I escaped from my tomb in the temple. I have no clue why they'd think it. 


Pet: I've got this charming maneki neko named Sorami. She looks like an innocent trinket now, but she'll convince you otherwise if you double cross either of us. 

Friends: Hoodude (crush); Robecca Steam; Skellita Calaveras; Abbey Bominable; Venus McFlytrap; Rochelle Goyle

Name: Michiko Hitobashira
Monster Parent: Hitobashira
Age: 37,000 Lunar Months
Killer Style: I like to say my killer style is influenced by my Japanese culture. Colors like black and grey would also compliment my pale dead skin tone.
Freaky Flaw: I'm not the best or bravest monster when it comes to closed spaces. I start to panic and have a fear of being trapped for another thousand years. The first hundred were bad enough and I'm not look for the next one of being trapped in a dark, cold castle.
Favorite Color: With the honest truth... it's pink.... I know I wear a lot of black and grey but it's reallly because I think I wouldn't look good in any light, bright colors.
Favorite Food: Miso soup is always nice to warm the cold body. Never really like cold stuff.
Biggest pet peeve: I hate the killer chill of Winter. I know I have a cold body temp. but the sun is something I live for. Well I guess I haunt for it cause I'm pretty much immortally dead.
Favorite Activity: I'm really love to write kanji and Japanese flower decorating. It gives me a chance to actually play with the beautiful, bright colors of flowers. A secret desire I always have.
Favorite School Subject: Art, it's really a good time to express my colorful side.
Least Favorite School Subject: History of the undead. Know about it TOO much to care. Trust me it's hauntingly dull and a past I don't want to remember.
Pet: Kohana, she's my beautiful flower koi fish. We have the most fangtastic time having tea. She's also quite a dancer in my pond.
Friends: Winter Snow (someone I can stand even if she's practally cold as Winter), Marcus Bloodstone (such a gentleman and a great listener), Helia Ἥλιος (his golden rays are enchanting)

This was really fun to do! I really love her design. Her style is wicked awesome and as always your art.
Extra info:
Michiko means beautiful, wise
Kohana means little flower

Name: Maiko Tanaka
Monster Parent: Hitobashira
Age: 17
Killer Style: I like to wear elegant clothes from my culture, something movable so i may dance in them. But, i think ive been moody lately. I seem to be more into darker clothes then bright ones. Maybe it has to do with the fact i was killed?
Freaky Flaw: Im not too found of closed spaces. I was buried alive in the floor of a castle! I think i have a right.... Oh, and for some reason, i have a sensitive nose. I have no idea why... maybe because the castle was old, or maybe my nose was like that when i was alive....
Favorite Color: Well, as i said i have been moody, so im into darker colors. When im moody, i like dark gray or dark brown. When im in a more colorful mood, i like peach or yellow.
Favorite Food: Believe it or not, my favorite food isnt sushi! I like sashami, and my favorite is Fugu!
Biggest pet peeve: My biggest pet peeve? I guess its people who think they can dance a good traditional Japanese dance! Or when no one dusts in a while...
Favorite Activity: Dancing! I love going into my traditional Japanese garden and dancing! Or teaching my ghoul friends to dance!
Favorite School Subject: Physical Deaducation! I love getting a good work out, and making my body stronger for my intense dances!
Least Favorite School Subject: Hist. of the Undead! I really dont wanna know about stuff like that.... brings back bad memorys.
Pet: My hooded pitta, Anata, which means darling. He sings a beautiful song while i dance!
Friends: Ghoulia Yelps; Spectra Vondergeist; Jinafire Long; Twyla; Marah Bloodstone; Marcus Bloodstone

I actually did some research on the names and foods and other stuff... i hope you like it! Any questions about it, and you can ask!
