STRENGTHS
[/BLOCKQUOTE]
- Budo- Not a Martial art form that normally tests for belts, Budo believes that you should learn the art to train your body and becoming in harmony with it and your mind and spirit. Jyo studies under his best friend who is a master, but often finds that he’s unable to concentrate. Despite that however, this has become his angelic weapon.
- Forgiveness- Jyo wasn't great at forgiveness in life, but since he's learned just the great evil he was doing as a Gangster he's become an agent of forgiveness. He's the one to seek out when you feel it's time to truly repent and become a better person.
- Modern Weapons Knowledge- Part of his drive for forgiveness is the things he did as a gun carrying member of Gangland. During that time he traded in the black market for guns, knives, and other illegal weapons. He's taken that knowledge into things that heaven hasn't caught up to quite yet. He's trying to teach Peter how to use a semi-automatic handgun.
- Relationships- Jyo is a natural born flirt and ladies man. His mother would tell you that Jyo flirted with the nurses while they were in the hospital the week after he was born. That is currently being put to the test as a woman off screen has captured Jyo's attention. Later, I may bring her out since she is Jyo's mate.
- Powers- Jyo has precognition and retro-cognition and Prescience. He can tell when things have, are, and will happen. He also has the typical healing and sensing of other angles and has even been down long enough to develop Malleokinesis, or the ability to manipulate metals of all sorts unless satanically touched (i.e. Metals from Hell itself).
WEAKNESSES
[/BLOCKQUOTE]
- Concentration- Even in death Jyo doesn’t normally concentrate on one thing at a time. He thinks he’s a master multi-tasker, but the truth is, is that he often forgets details of what he’s doing because he’s to busy trying to do five big things at once… He’s definitely not the one to trust to bring the hot dog buns home for dinner…
- Emotional Outbursts- Really don't cry in front of him. When he wants to see you as the repentant angel is after you cried about your sins and calmed down, coming to the point that you're ready to move and make the changes... He really hates having to comfort people while they're being emotional. He himself is even stoic, rarely prone to emotional outbursts.
- Kids- Jyo doesn’t want kids himself, but he loves them. This is the guy who’s been suspected of disloyalty twice because he wouldn’t shoot another pregnant gangster, or a Schism man carrying his own babby to the park. Jyo will stop what ever he’s doing, even if it’s important to protect the life of children.
- Family- Jyo has a warped sense of family, because of what happened at home. He refuses to become a father, because in his experiace fathers are deadbeats with no balls who can’t do anything for themselves. And he refuses to make a woman a mother because mothers are just there to be abused. But brotherhood he understands as doing everything for you brother, sounds good so far right? Doing everything for your brother until you have to double tap him for not doing the same for you.
- Powers- Even after succumbing to the mortal curse Jyo can't control his psychic powers, but at least now he understands that it's because the present is still being determined and the future will be only by the turning of time to themselves. His Malleokineses is controlled by his own physical strength, so the longer he uses it, or the more difficult things he attempts to do with it can drain him to the point of a second death.
LIKES
[/BLOCKQUOTE]
- Parties- Somethings just never change, often Jyo finds himself slipping into clubs just to relive some of his best moments as a human.
- Steak- Meat, red meat. Need I say more?
- Fraternity- Jyo’s oldest brother left for College and Med School when Jyo was inducted to Rose after his little brother died. Therefore the only people Jyo had to lean on were the members of the Black Rose Gang. He quickly learned that when everyone gave their all to a cause, nothing could stop a faction of people that called each other brother.
- Shilo- Probably the first person to singularly make this list. Jyo's mate is a strong link to him, his "better" half, and the only one that can put him in his spot with out begrudgement from him.
- Loyality- Even if it puts you on the wrong side of the line from him, Jyo loves to see people stay loyal to their cause. He absolutely loaths disloyalty. He’s killed people disloyal to other gangs before...
DISLIKES
[/BLOCKQUOTE]
- Disloyalty- Speaking of…
- Parental responsibilities- Probably the only Gangster you will ever meet that uses a condom. He refuses to become a parent because he won’t turn into his. But wo be unto the person that takes on the responsibilities of Parenthood and doesn't live up to them like they agreed to when they got pregnant. Jyo interprets that as the greatest disloyalty because the child hasn't had its own chance yet.
- Asian Food- Because his whole life people expected him to eat nothing but rice with chop sticks, Jyo has developed a distaste for Asian Food, especially Sushi. He’ll only eat it if his brothers and sisters want it, and he gets out voted.
- Being overly organized- Jyo's Cover as a doctor and his mate's inate ability to organize everything has caused him to lash out, his apartment looks like hurrican Katrina picked up the poor quater of New Orleans and dumped it in his apartment. However, if you watch, his clothes make up one quarter of the mess, his mail makes up another portion, and his dishes are all rinsed out and stacked waiting for him to find the wherewithal to do it, or for Shilo to do it out of pity.
- McDonalds- Really, he once saw a map of the United States that was blacked out with glowing dots of the closest McDonalds, it looked like looking a night shot of the US from a satalite. He's convinced that Satan snuck out of his prison in Hell and McDonalds is his cover.
HISTORY
About twenty years ago, a gang came on the scene turning Gangland on it’s head. It was founded by a woman, tired of being abused in Gangland, history knows her as only The Cat. She founded it under a flag of an all black rose stem with five thorns each standing for one of the greatest five people; God, Family, Rose, Council, individual; and three petals for their three virtues; Fraternity, Providence, and Patience. For years the gang held together, until a group of rebels decided that the individual mattered more. They split off, and civil war ensued and has continued till today. In the middle of it, a member of the schism faction returned to Black Rose; he pleaded with The Cat and begged her to let him prove himself to her. She allowed him, and for his double betrayal became known as the Snake. He was a loyal member, teaching the Black Rose how to fight the people that were once their brothers and sisters, and became the only lover of The Cat. To this day, no Black Rose has lived up the glory and combative skill these two members had, only a few have come close. Jyo is one of those people.[/BLOCKQUOTE]
He became a member at a young age, about fourteen, because his home life was broken. His father was a violent drunk and his mother worked all day and all night to support them. When his father drank Jyo and his older and younger brother had to flee the house to escape abuse, but his family lived so far under the poverty line that they went out of the frying pan and into the fryer. Gangland ruled their streets with an iron hand. He saw it as join or be killed, either at home or on the streets. If he was going to die anyway, he figured he’d make the best of it, and make some dough while he was at it. A few Asian gangs tried to recruit Jyo, but he held strong and out till he found his perfect fit. When his younger brother was killed by Black Rose’s schism group, Jyo put in work with the Black Rose to get revenge. But the money was great, and the people were friendly, especially a guy known as Ice. Quickly Ice and Jyo were best friends, and Jyo became inducted to the Black Rose.
His life’s been a blur since then of women, violence, and streets. A good portion of his money goes to helping his mother support his older brother while the guy studies to become a doctor. The rest goes to help Ice support his kid and baby-momma. He doesn’t quite know how it happened, but eventually around the time he was becoming a young adult he became a member of Council, the Black Rose leadership group. That meant he had the run of the streets with only a few select people, Ice included, to check him. Jyo was already deathly loyal to the Black Rose, and this cemented his views on the reality that the Gang really was his only home, and that he was going to die for these people, as the individual ought for Council, Gang, or family.
Just a decade ago Jyo learned about the Magical world during a Gang war with the Schism Gang as both sides pulled out all the stops to beat their opposing one. After that Jyo became a magical hitman, working for what money he could get and returning to school himself. Jyo only lasted a few years after that, cause it wasn't long till he was killed in a drunk driving accident. He was driving an outsider home after a month of good deeds had left him in a good funk. As he was he realized that he knew the person coming onto the intersection wasn't going to stop and plow right into a pregnant woman with another child in a stroller. Jyo apologized to his friend, and that was the last thing he remembered personally. What happened is he gunned the engine and swerved in front of the oncoming car, getting slammed by the drunk driver.
How long it was before Jyo woke up he wasn't sure, but when he did the first person he saw was his "mate"
Shilo a healing angel. They actually make a great pair and have developed a romantic link between the two as they work the two sides of what someone needs of them. A healer for your soul and someone to fight for you. Now Jyo is back in LA as more danger comes to town trying to start early the Apocalypse.
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
This is the new Jyo, he's a different Angel then most. Since Angel's here are a force for Neutrality to allow for human agency, Jyo's job is to police the borders of Neutrality. If any one side is becoming to hot headed, his job is to step in and blow them back down to size. Most of the time his job is to step in and remind good people how to stay good. He'll develop into the warrior angle for the end of days that will fight alongside the archangels Gabriel and Michael for the destruction of the Underworld.[/BLOCKQUOTE]

”Yea I hear you. Oh, you guys are out of formula.” He stopped and waited for a moment while someone could be heard shouting on the other line. Then a moment of silence. “Yea, kinda one. I’ll pick you guys up some.” Another pause and the man smiled. “Alright. See you later.” Jyo hung up the phone and looked at it a moment. Ice the only reel brother Jyo had. And the only one that knew Jyo was psycotic. One second Jyo was there the next he wasn’t and the one following that he knew something that had or was going to happen. Other times, he just knew things about the now. He sighed and pulled his gun out as he rounded a corner, sure enough there was a schimist. Jyo smiled. “Well hello there, traitor.” Jyo stopped, this wasn’t right… He stopped then smiled. “You’re here for forgiveness?” The kid looked at him shocked. Well the Snake turned, so could someone else right? Have to give them the chance based on the concept of fraternity and patience right? “Come on.” Jyo put his gun away and waved the kid with him. Well the day won’t be a total loss with only six hundred brought in… I got a new Snake.
