Powers and Weaknesses
Powers/Abilities: Ninja Summoning & Control - Through the use of the Koyaboshi Lantern of Skill, Dylan can summon 10 Ninja with peak human attributes. They have equal skill with weaponry as Dylan does with his blade. The Ninja’s disappear in a cloud of smoke after taking damage similar to that of a freight train slamming into them.
Flame Manipulation - When the lantern is lit, Dylan gains the power to control and emit small amounts of flame and smoke. Only about as hot as a convection oven.
Origin: The mystical Koyaboshi Lanterns.
Skills/Talents: Near mastery of Kenjutsu
Source: Magic
Ability: Adept
Weaknesses: Splash Damage - Water can put out the lantern, though something like rain will not work. It has to be directly aimed and splashed onto the lantern.
Lust - When it comes to women, a simple appeal to his lust will cause him to fall apart at the seems.
Immunities: Cannot be burned.
Restrictions: Once the flame on the Koyaboshi lantern goes out, he cannot summon Ninja or fire until it is relit.
Alternate Forms: N/A
Extra Anatomy: N/A

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Comparison: Much like a dragon, Dylan will hoard treasure and power to fill a hole in his life.

Song: youtu.be/hV87zpSUtKk
Vice: Lust
Virtue: DiligenceHistoryInfancy: Dylan was taken care of in these early years by a nanny who insisted that his parents call her “Abuela.” She was kind to him, but sadly she would pass away soon after he turned three, leaving him with only vague; yet fond memories.
Childhood: Starting at age 3, Dylan would be left with a nanny more and more. None would stick. They’d come in; they’d take the money, they’d go. Generally, Dylan was given free rein of his home. From age 3 to age 8, Dylan got everything he wanted the moment he asked for it. Generally, to keep him quiet while they worked. Dylan would soon start acting out, lighting things on fire, stealing tiny things like candy bars, one time even going so far as to beat one of his Nanny’s. His parents quickly learned that they needed to discipline their son just as much as they needed to ignore him.
They took everything from him in an attempt to get him to realize that he was in the wrong but having no way to enforce that, quickly it was forgotten.
Adolescence: At age 13 Dylan discovered anime. And love for Japan, and Japanese culture. He began taking Japanese language classes online and watching videos on Japanese mythology. At age 15, he was transferred to a school in Japan as part of a foreign exchange student program. When he arrived, it was very different from what he had expected. However, he rolled with the punches and moved forward. He got his grades up while in Japan to ensure they wouldn’t send him back prematurely, he took up Kenjutsu after school from a private teacher and took to it easily. When he asked his teacher about the strange lantern he kept over his window, the man shut him out. Because of this, Dylan grew angry. Very angry. Angry enough that he wanted to steal the lantern. So he waited until nightfall when the man was asleep.
Taking the lantern off the windowsill, Dylan tried to figure out what was so important about it. He shook it, and he flicked it, he even tried tossing it on the ground. Oddly, the little lantern of wood and paper wouldn’t break. Finally, he decided that he would light it on fire. The damn thing was so stubborn, not revealing its secrets to him.
He pulled out a torch lighter and held it to the paper. It wouldn’t burn. God dammit. Fine then. He quickly threw both lighter and lantern away from him, lighter still lit. The Lantern reacted as one would expect. The flame inside lit.
That’s when a group of Japanese men, 10 in total dressed in Ninja outfits appeared in front of him, proclaiming loyalty. The lantern began orbiting him like a satellite — God how he wished that his master was here to see this.
Three of the men disappeared and then reappeared with the master only moments later. Finally. Now he could show him exactly why you don’t fuck with Dylan pierce. Not knowing what he was doing, he took the blade that he had been forced to handcraft off the wall and sanctified in the older man's blood.
For the next couple of years, he pored over every legend he could find. Eventually discovering the tale of the Koyaboshi Lanterns. 8 mystic lanterns that were powered by the attributes of one's soul. It was quite exciting for the up and coming crime boss, as he had managed to tick off the Yakuza, the Japanese hero Jade Ronin, and especially the Japanese empowered containment unit. Things were going quite well for him.
Current: These days, he’s hopping from hotel to hotel trying to find another Koyaboshi Lantern and increase his army.
