Name: Cho Hakkai
DOB: September 21st
Age: 22
Race: Demon
Weapon: Unfortunately it seems he just so happen to be a "pansy". Unless, of course you happen to account the power of bare fists, flying energy waves, ki-gong healing techniques, magically forming barriers with the power of ones own mind, and few other lesser known powers (That'll only shall be explained if and when Hakkai takes off his limiters).
Appearance: Hakkai is a rather up kept individual possessing short, well trimmed brunette hair and sad yet extremely noticeable green eyes (his right one, of course, being fake). He stands tall at a little past 5'11'' and weighs at a decant 153 lbs. His body taking a pale olive-tone, the only known scar is the large horizontal gash mark just above his navel. Hakkai wears a traditional olive-green Chinese tunic with a black long-sleeved shirt underneath. Beige khakis cover over his legs and end with a pair of deep brown loafers. His outfit would, if anything be considered the most normal out of all the Sanzo-ikkous. The only things out of the norm being a large off-white sash wrapped over his left shoulder and a bandanna over his forehead similar in color to his tunic. Accessories consist of a glass monocle covering over his fake eye and a set of three silver ear cuffs along his left ear, his youkai limiters.
Personality: Hakkai is a mild mannered polite young man. Often only speaking up when in serious conversation or to throw in he usual witty retort at the expense of Gojyo and Goku. But despite his urge to remain in the background compared to the others Hakkai is probably the most eccentric of them all. His dual personality and hidden intentions usually making themselves known within a sharp gaze during more serious moments. If anything Hakkai is usually considered the "scariest" one amongst the group for the mere fact that no one can ever tell when he's serious or kidding around (more often he is serious). Despite these negative aspects though, Hakkai possesses quite a few positive ones. Hakkai is usually considered the motherly type, often found to be the one cooking and cleaning while the others goof off. He the one who usually looks after everyone when they are sick and even is, from time to time, found cleaning and looking after Goku. Also, being the only one in the group to have acctually completed collage Hakkai could truthfully be known as the most book-smart member of the Sanzo-ikkou. He also appears to be an extremely open-minded individual.
Personal History: Hakkai, having gone by the name of Cho Gonou at that time, had grown up as the younger twin between two human parents. But the "happy family" had only been able to last for so long. His parents divorcing when the children were three years of age. The Father took his twin sister (Kanan) and his mother raised him on her own until the age of five. It was at that time that Gonous mother respectively dropped him off at a Catholic orphanage and vanished for the rest of Gounous known life. From then on he had spent his time raised by the sisters of the church along with various other children. His personality had quickly become a cynical one, preferring to indulge himself within the pages of literature other then enjoy himself having fun as most other children had. It was because of this that Gonou had not been very popular with the other orphans. Other children often doing their best to avoid him on account of his cold and frightening personality. He had thus spent the next ten years of his life to himself, his only goal being nothing more then to seek and find the one only person he knew he could trust.
It was at the age of 15 that Gonou had taken step out of the orphanage to live on his own. Because of his his high intellectual status, various prestigious schools have been asking for his participation. Things have gone smoothly enough from there on for the young teen, or perhaps too smoothly. It was upon attending school that Gonou had just so happened to come across the person he had spent most his life wondering about. His other half, the only other person he knew would understand how he had felt. His older twin sister. It isn't exactly noted how well the two had hit it off at first, but perhaps their relationship had grown far too quickly. For within two years time, at the age of 17, Hakkai and Kanan had left their school hand in hand. Now hiding their title as sibling only to replace it with that of lovers.
And they truly have fallen madly in love. Traveling as far off together as they possibly could, the two had then settled down in a small town. Getting a home of their own, Gonou had then taken up the profession of a teacher. It is because of this that Gonou had gained his experience for watching over and caring for children. He had also mutually learned to cook and clean, often due to Kanans tomboy-ish persona and her horrible skills with any kitchen utensil. It was here that they had been able to form a temporary happiness. Something that Gonou would cherish forever. However, the townspeople were slowly beginning to grow suspicious of the relationship between the two. And it hadn't helped that the great hundred-eyed centipede-youkai king, Hyakugen Maoh was currently in power of the area and forcing the town to sacrifice beautiful women to him in order to fulfill his many hungers.
It had been when he was only 19 years of age, that Gonou would come home to what appeared as a struggle. His home torn and ruined, with Kanan no where to be found. He had panicked at once, running into town and demanding a reason. His only response being "you two don't have parents. You would never understand.". It was at that moment that Cho Gonou had broke. In a blaze of his own insane fury and vengeful desires had the man slaughtered half the town and ran off in effort to rescue his abducted lover. And what occurred during the two months time between then and his finally finding Kanan was enough for Gonous name to be marred for all the rest of his days. Overall slaughtering nearly 1,000 youkai, not caring whether they be man woman or child.
It was only upon murdering Hyakugen Maoh in cold blood that Gonou had managed to make his way down to the lower dungeons of the Centipede Clan Castle. Coming face to face with Kanan in what felt like ages. Her body had been raped, abused, and violated. But none the less he held her in his arms as they sat on either side of cold metal bars. He said that he would take her back. He said that everything would be fine. His body and clothes covered in the deep crimson bloodshed. His only will to be with her once more. He was so far preoccupied in being by her side at that moment, that he hadn't even noticed when she managed to pull his knife from his hands. Within that brief moment she had managed to tell him how she was now carrying the half-breed child of the monster who had raped her. Her final words, "I love you" just barely reaching his ears before she drove the knife deep into her own body. Killing herself instantly.
Gonou had been torn more then he ever thought possible. And little did he know that things would only continue to get worse. For the entire scene had been watched on the sidelines. The young prince of the Centipede Clan, Chin Ii Sou, finally stepping away from the shadows to mock the broken man that had lain emotionless on the dungeon floors. The scene had amused the prince greatly. As well had it sparked a certain curiosity within him. Legend had it that, any human man who had come to slay 1,000 youkai would thus become a youkai himself. And what was the harm in a little experimentation? Making his way closer to Gonou only to slit his own wrist open and pour his own blood upon Gonous flesh. He didn't know that the legend was acctually reality. And neither had he known that he had been Gonous 1,000th youkai.
Chin Ii Sou had only been able to protect himself for so long from the now enraged newly-born youkai. Manging to slice Gonous stomach open and leave what is now an eternal scar along his abdomen. But Gonous rage had been enough to give him one last boost of energy. Lunging his claws deep within Ii Sou and (supposedly) killing him off. After all that happened, even with his soul smashed and his body broken to a point that his own intestine were falling out of him, he had still managed to escape. Somehow finding his way out of the castle and deep into the woods before finally collapsing for dead. He did not expect to be found, none the less saved, by a certain red-headed human-youkai crossbreed.
Sha Gojyo, for some reason or another, had at that moment found a strange sense of compassion for the almost-dead Gonou. Taking him into his home and caring after him until his wounds had completely healed. Not knowing that Gonou was now a wanted criminal. Three months had passed until Gonous full recovery, and just as he was about to bid his farewells to this newly found ally had a certain Buddhist Monk and his hyperactive sidekick shown up to take Gonou in for sentancing. That was the night that Sanzo-ikkou had met up for the first time. It had taken a bit of a struggle but none the less had they managed to capture him, taking Gonou to his sentencing at the Temple of the Rising Sun.
From this point on Cho Gonou was dead. And Cho Hakkai was given life. Spending the rest of his time as roommate to Gojyo as well as managing the upkeep of their now mutual home.
Feeling horribly indebted to Sanzo for all that he had done in helping to save his life, Hakkai was more then happy to help aid Sazno in their Journey west thee years later.
Job: Healer, Sanzo-ikkous personal chef maid and overall man-slave, middle man, and ex-teacher
Strengths/Weaknesses: Hakkais mild and polite personality do not seem to hinder him in the slightest when it comes to his combat. Often showing just as much ruthlessness as the rest of his companions whilst fighting. He is agile and dexterous and has an almost godly endurance that at times has proven to be both a blessing and a curse. His weaknesses though are usually those concerning his past. Despite his tough outwards appearance, Hakkai is acctually extremely emotionally unstable and often tends to loose himself in the horrors of his sins. He is also lacks physical strength more then the others, mainly seeing his main preference in combat is with his bare fists whilst the others all seem to have some sort of weapon.
