Kuniaki

Kuniaki remembered the scent of pine and polished wood from their first day at The Dojo, and the barely stifled laughter that followed their tiger-striped onesie. The other trainees saw a joke; the instructors saw a discipline problem. But Kuniaki's deadpan expression never wavered, even with the ridiculous pink daisies perched on their head. During a high-stakes archery trial, a challenge set by Kyoju to test focus against magical interference, everyone failed. When Kuniaki stepped forward, the laughter died. They drew their bow, and the fury in their eyes ignited, channeling a surge of energy that made the air crackle. The arrow they loosed wasn't just wood and feather—it was pure, ascended will. Kyoju simply noted the result, dismissing the bizarre attire. Kuniaki remains an enigma, a fierce archer who proved that true power doesn’t need a uniform.
