Tendou trained alongside his father for almost his entire life, and like father like son, he was born without the innate ability to use Magic, resorting to Ki instead.

Personality




History
Tendou

Ways of Combat
Grandmaster Martial Artist/Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Taught by old man Gin as his first student, Tendou can be referred to as what is called a "combat grandmaster", with his expertise in martial arts being the main element of his fighting style. He excels at close combat with strong punches and kicks, and his strength and speed are so impeccable that it allow him to incapacitate foes through the use of hand-to-hand combat alone before they can react, without the need to resort to Ki. His fighting style can be compared to that of a raging bull, wild and full of force, deadly for its speed and accuracy. When in battle, Tendou tends to focus only on damaging the opponent until he or she is in a position where they cannot go on anymore, drowning in pain. However, whenever it comes to efficiency and the focus of performing both internal and external damage, Tendou will take the advantage of his knowledge on the human body and target pressure points. This is to temporarily cancel out the opponent's control over that specific area, rendering them useless for a while. Tendou's strikes also become more accurate as well as more fluidity and flexibility.

Ki
"Once this adrenaline start pumping, you better regret not turning yourself in..."

- Tendou to a Dark Mage as his Ki manifest.

Ki (気, Spirit) is a unique form of energy that exists in, acting as an alternative means to gain supernatural powers separate from. This was an advancement for those who could not have access to Ethernano in order to perform Magic. It is not something that can be obtained by the help of others. It cannot be found anywhere in the world, anywhere except inside the soul of a person. Just like his father Gin, Tendou was born without the ability to use magic no matter how much he tried to. Instead, Gin taught Tendou about the existence of Ki and how he could acquire it, though not so easily. Because Ki is only found inside of a person, Tendou have had gone through several stages of mental training to explore within himself to find the source of this newfound power, via meditation. At last, one's soul power will overflow, pouring energy into the physical body and spread out throughout the body. This energy will greatly amplify the physical strength of a person, in this case Tendou. It's not only physical though, it also benefits him mentally. This energy, this adrenaline temporarily removes all stresses from the body as it allows Tendou to be relaxed even when in tight situations. After all, Ki is able to allow normal humans to surpass their physical limits due to it being extremely versatile and relatively easy to use.

The primary expression of one's Ki to another is classified as Sakki (殺気, Murderous Spirit). As such, it is often touted as an equivalent to a Mage's Magical Aura.
