Walking with the Dead

This is my new-ish character Kubaki. He is the corrupted "soul" of my vampire character, Kiba. He has had many looks but this is his newest.

 

I like how this came out because I used the Trap Sphinx skin without the tattoos and used the Gauze tattoos for the Kayn skin. They work so wonderfully together!

 

Enjoy his lengthy background....typos and all cause I am extremely lazy

 

Kubaki is Kiba's soul. Back in the fudal eras of Japan Kiba was the son of a powerful daymio loyal to the shogun. During the war between the Emperor and the shogun Kiba's father died and in his fury and anger Kiba rushed out into the snowy feilds of his homeland, hacking and slashing at everything he could find, determined to bring revenge for his father. However he forgot the conditions outside and staied out far too long in the winter cold becoming ill and weak. He was rushed inside and kept very good care of by all staff. Dispite all this he was determined to be a part of the meetings with the shogunate about the war and replace hisfather to the best of his abilities. He refused help when he needed it and carried on as if he were not deathly ill at all untill he was bedridden with his condintion. In the night a figure appeared before him offering him a cure for his illness and a worry free life of harm. He was delerious with feaver and could not answer if he wished this gift or not. The figure did not wait for such an answer however and bit down into the boy's neck and life faded from himf ast untill all went black. When he awoke Kiba found himself on a stone slab in heat that felt almost unbareable. Groggy but no longer feeling as sick as he had been he looks up and around before seeing a creature before him of monsterous perportions. Horns stuck from its heard and wings from it's back. It spoke to him and told him he was in hell. Quick to grab for his sword Kiba reached but found no blade to protect himself with. He cursed at it and told it he did not recognise it as a gozu, the bull headed gardians of hell but he was unsure. The creature demonstraited its power, showing him its ability to shape shift and control the land he was standing on untill Kiba realized he was dead and there was nothing he could do. Anger rose inside him, hatred for this betrayl. The creature assured him that what the figure from life had promised himw as true and that his body roamed the earth now as a blood drinking corpse. As punishment for this curse his soul had been cast into the depths of hell itself. With this Kiba grew even more angry, more bent on revenge. The creature saw this spark in the other and offered him a deal, the power to carry out his wish if he were to serve him. Without hesitation Kiba accepted this iftof corruption becoming a demon himself. As time went on he became more crrupted, evil and spiteful and his body grew more demonic as time went on. He killed his entire family clan, leaving only those who did not live in his home of Nara and swore revenge on his walking body and the one who turned it into that. He tracked him making his life mizerable, making him fear for his life at every turn when suddenly his enjoymentof tourchering Kiba had to come to an end. His powers seemed to dissapear and the voice of his new master no longer heard. With this he grew uneasy but still bent on his perpose, what drove him to live as long as he did in this state. He tracked down his body with somehwat more difficulty and found it within a school. He was tuck in his demonic form now but it seemed that this school would accept someone like that and so he applied to become a student knowing that his body would never recognise him in this state and swore to make his life hell on earth as his exsistance had to be because of him still being alive in undeath.
