Shiloh Ebaro, "Lille Barro" [WIP]

» Personality: Lille Barro is a man defined by discipline – his composed exterior hiding a storm of convictions shaped by heritage, duty, power, and faith. A natural stoic, Lille speaks sparingly but deliberately, his words chosen with precision to reflect a deeply analytical mind. He is often pragmatic, valuing results over sentiment when evaluating his own efforts, and holds himself to high standards of discipline and self-control. Despite his reserved nature, Lille is intensely spiritual, believing in the divine order of the world and his historical place within it as one who carries Quincy powers.

Lille's faith in his abilities and purpose borders on unshakable, often leading others to perceive him as detached or cold. However, beneath this demeanor lies a complex individual wrestling with the weight of his responsibilities. He views his power as both a blessing and a burden, one that demands relentless vigilance and unyielding resolve, and he can be quite strict and tough on himself for not living up to those expectations.

Though he carries himself with an air of authority, Lille is not without compassion. His sense of justice drives him to protect the innocent, the weak and oppressed, and maintain balance; but his methods can appear ruthless to those who misunderstand his intentions. Lille values efficiency, and his calculated approach to combat and decision-making often masks the quiet empathy he harbors for those he protects… and even for those he slays.

Ultimately, Lille Barro is a warrior shaped by faith and duty, torn between the weight of expectation and the silent yearning to reconcile his humanity with the Quincy ideals he strives to uphold.

» History: Shiloh Ebaro was born in a small village nestled near the edge of the Namib Desert, a vast expanse of golden dunes and rocky terrain. His parents, humble farmers, instilled in him a strong sense of discipline and respect for the natural world around them. Life was tough, shaped by the harsh climate and lifestyle, but Shiloh’s parents believed in perseverance and hard work. Despite the struggles, they found joy in their simple lives and raised their son to cherish the bonds of family and community.

As a child, Shiloh begun to develop Spiritual Energy as a mere human, as did many other humans around the world. His own energy grew fast, perhaps a result of the mentality he was bestowed by his parents and its push to make him connect with nature and the spiritual energies around him.

Shiloh was curious and deeply observant from a young age. He often wandered the outskirts of the village, seldom with his parents' knowing of it, marveling at the stark beauty of the desert and its resilient wildlife. Though he lacked formal education, his parents taught him the necessary skills and knowledge as well as traditions through stories and lessons tied to the land. His father, in particular, spoke of spiritual forces that connected all living things, a belief Shiloh carried as an unspoken truth even without understanding its depth nor its identity as the Reishi that resides in all things in nature.


» Natural Abilities:
Sharpshooter - Continuous use of his Spirit Weapon, formed like a rifle, has sharpened Shiloh's marksman skills tremendously. Given his fast-paced fighting style, it's a neccesity to handle any rifle with extreme precision.


» Racial Abilities:
Longevity - Generating his own Quincy powers enhanced Shiloh's physical body, slowing down its aging to the point where even in his late 60s, he still looks like a ripping young man in his 20s.

Either Power Bestowal or Reishi Absorption -

Sklaverei - While he's seen very scarce opportunities to use this ability, Shiloh's able to deconstruct Reishi constructs (at least 2 Spirit Classes lower than him) by manipulating the Reishi they're made of, until the construct or spell is nullified and absorbed into the user.

Blut -

Spellcraft - Thanks to the usage of Namibian talismans as catalysts, Shiloh's gotten experienced in preparing sealed spells into them for casting in the heat of battle. Talismans and amulets have always held a high place in his culture, so developing this skill felt natural to him.

Steigen - A very useful skill of his is the ability to soar on Reishi platforms with Steigen. He's proficient at flying around the battlefield, creating platforms to stand on mid-air, and constantly find new vantage points for sharpshooting. Since he relies a lot on this technique in conjunction with his Spirit Weapon, he's had ample opportunities to develop supplementary skills to draw Steigen's potential out even further:

• Steigen: Schattenspiel (Soar: Shadow Play) - This is applying the speed of Steigen to leave behind after-images or 'speed clones' in the user's path. Shiloh can at max manifest 2 of these, but the dangerous part is that he can spread them over a distance of 20 meters around his prior position. This is a useful distraction tactic, allowing him to find more openings to shoot at.
  
• Steigen: Kreisbogen (Soar: Arc) - By pushing the speed of Steigen to his very limit, Shiloh locks onto an opponent looking at him, then blurs out of view in a rapid advance and relocates behind the opponent's back by moving in a wide arc around the area between the two. This can benefit as a surprise setup, but the focus needed to pour out such high speed requires him to focus on one opponent only. The opponent can at max be 100 meters away for this to work. The increase in Reiatsu can also alert particularly wary opponents or opponents who've experienced it once before.
