Name • Lester Aníbal "Mercy of Baal" Sakuramori
Gender • Male
Age • twenty three
Occupation • Visiting Research Professor of Floriculture, and Teaching Professor of Floral Studies and Etiquette
Height • 183 cm, 6"

Appearance • Normally his attire consists of a simplistic outfit, shirt, tie, pants and a blazer. In the cooler months he is seen with a merino pair of gloves and matching scarf that remarkable seems to go perfectly with his outfit. There are corners of his wardrobe with attire from home which is not surprising, eastern styling clothing from the country of Hisakawa. Hair is either worn freely, as the fringe partially falls across the face, his left side longer than his right reaching close to his chin it is sometimes held back by a neat golden headband.

Personality • A very formal man Lester is known to act in ways that would be considered overly formal, his very manner of speech exudes an aura of being a man older and wiser than he is. It is for this reason that he is rarely seen as a young man like his age would indicate, the wisdom that he has is due to his true species as a Kirin. Since birth his very presence has been seen as a blessing, for the movements of a kirin are known to follow world peace, living during the reigns of noble and enlightened rulers, in lands owned by wise and benevolent people, or as heralds of a golden age. Over time he has learned how to set others around him at ease, acting as a mediator. Since childhood this study of body language and expressions has led to the professor being able to display an impressive facade. To all those at the school he has only shown a mature face, joking at times for sure however he always remains firmly within the lines which he has painted for himself, there are few he lets inside. To the majority of students he acts as if they are seedlings which needs to be nurtured, and directed in their growth, to do this it is important to gather knowledge, to be informed on their happenings and actions so one can properly guide the student towards success and navigate the harsh waters of the adult world. As a visiting professor he is an outsider to many things, although informed of the culture it is still natural for him to display an interest in the history and happenings of Misteres, for this reason it is not uncommon for him to be present at lectures regarding politics or history, as well as more current events. There are times when he seems cold or distant, however it is rare for his to display a personality that could be regarded as evil or act in a manner with ill intent.

There are many thoughts within him that he would not ever display, as his role in society he does hold a coldness in his heart for the citizens and students as well as faculty. A smile painted across his face as within he leers at the fools before him. Condemning those who do not properly look into or care about the world around them, for those who value this democratic society that Mistere so recently instated fail to see what he does. Many would call him despicable, or old fashioned should he share his true opinion as a royal supporter and the eyes of many he remains loyal, to himself, his job and his people. Wearing a face of sincerity and peace, acting as the noble guider of students as a Kirin he is still able to act himself in many circumstances, inquisitive about many things he welcomes conversations about the world and its complicated workings.
Favouring history and architecture due to the artistry involved as well as the history embedded in it that he could remove and read further into, he seeks knowledge, yet also the natural instincts of his species is to live in areas of peace and serenity, where there are powerful yet just leaders.

History • It was not until this school year that he was accepted into Eldritch Academy, much like students are accepted he had to apply for the right to be a Research Professor, but also to act as a teaching professor of Botany Studies and Etiquette. not much is known about his personal history due to being new to the scene, if researched online one will find nothing more than a few papers written on his floral studies and a greenhouse in Hisakawa named after him.

Race • Kirin
Appearance • natural form
Baseline Dimension • Naturally they are 40 ft : 12 m tall at their shoulders, with a small and nimble frame each Kirin's antlers vary in size.

Baseline Appearance • The kirin is a chimerical beast resembling a deer with scales like a dragon’s covering its body. It has a tail like an ox’s and a flowing mane. Its body and mane are covered in brilliant holy fire, over times these features may have changed, as generations differ slightly.

Culture & Origin of Species • A highly rare creature known only to be born in Hisakawa due to the natural energy and purity in the lands Kirin are powerful unicorn like creatures. Regal animal, holy and highly revered, and often considered a god in its own right. Traditionally and instinctively the kirin never eats the flesh of other beings, they take care never to tread or harm any other living thing no matter how small. When it walks, it does so without trampling a single blade of grass. Its beauty is only surpassed by its rarity; kirin only appear during periods of world peace, during the reigns of noble and enlightened rulers, in lands owned by wise and benevolent people, or as heralds of a golden age. Kirin never harm good and pure souls, but they are swift and fierce to attack if threatened, breathing holy fire from their mouths. Because kirin are beasts of purity and goodness, they have been used in carvings and paintings as symbols of these virtues since early times. They are also seen as symbols of justice and wisdom. Because of their holiness, images of kirin frequently adorn temples and shrines. They are omens of great luck and fortune, and the appearance of a kirin is often believed to be a sign of the arrival of a great leader or a wise man.

Traits
• Kirins are flexible creatures, due to this they are known to be able not just to shapeshift into human forms, but to sometimes take traits across from one form to another, such as their antlers, scales, claws or teeth. They can control their size, changing from their natural size (normally 40 ft) down to 4 ft, this flexibility and ability to adapt has left the Kirins with an extra 3 aspect points in speed.
• The Kirin have an affinity for natural talents, the majority of them using mainly talents from the basic and common elements (Fire, Earth, Air, Water, Nature, Metal). However after their initial talent many Kirins develop and train talents based on their personal history and experiences.
• The holy fire which naturally covers a Kirins body does not hold enormous power, however is has the ability to gently heal or damage those that the Kirin deems to be a target, the fire purifys all that it touches.
• Kirin are naturally sensitive to the emotions and stability of the society around them, due to preferring to live in eras and areas of peace or under strong leadership they can sense the emotions of all those around them. If the Kirin in question is much stronger than another then they may be able to slightly influence the emotions of the weaker individual.
• Due to their almost god like status Kirins are known to be stronger against the forces of evil, yokai, demons and other darkened creatures which are considered evil. This is because they naturally protect the life around them, stopping all which may harm it and protecting the current life Kirin's feet never touch the live ground, they just float a few centimetres above the ground if there are plants underfoot. This also affects them when in human form.
• Within 5 to 10 ft of a Kirin life grows stronger, plants bloom with brighter colours and living creatures feel stronger and more youthful. This trait grows stronger as the Kirin
• In an effort to mediate any problems Kirin not only influence emotions but they can also communicate telepathically,

Flaws
• The inability to take nutrients from meat or flesh, whilst kirin in both natural and human form can consume meat it will either pass through without being digested or it will react harshly, causing them to vomit up the meat.
• They are easily influenced by the malady, meaning that kirin tend to get sick easily if they are in an area that is corrupt
• If the Kiren has left an area that they are instinctively inclined to stay in (peaceful lands, stable areas, strong leaders), then they will constantly feel uneasy, anxious and unsteady. It would take a lot of mental training to overcome this anxious feeling.
