Story/History:
How innocent I was then, and how young! I thought, I believed entirely, that I was a wolf, and I never even knew that I was a whole different species, until the humans attacked me.
Born without knowledge of his extraordinary abilities as a Yas, Eien grew up in seclusion, away from any other living thing. As the Yas was raised by his parents, he grew up thinking he was a normal wolf, and he never realized that his kind was shunned by the village his family lived next to. As a result of this, Eien wandered into the village one day, during his adolescence, and was shocked by what he encountered there. Upon seeing Eien, the humans picked up their weapons - rakes, knives, spears, bows and arrows, whatever they could get their hands on - and rushed at the young Yas, yelling at him, calling him an abomination of the world, calling him, a Yas.
When the humans attacked me and starting hitting me with their iron weapons, something within me stirred and broke, and everything fell into darkness. By the time I regained consciousness, the humans were writhing in a dark flame, and a tortured screaming filled my ears. It was then I realized I was also engulfed in those dark flames, but unlike the humans, I didn't feel anything at all.
Eien had no idea of what the humans intended to do to him, and simply sat there, watching as the humans rushed towards him with furious warcrys. It was only until the weapons that the humans wielded started to impact on his soft body, that the Yas realized that the humans had the intention of killing him. Calling out in pain, a dark glow started to emerge around his body. Noticing this ominous glow, the humans of the village halted their assault, and started to back away, but it was too late for them. With another loud cry, a dark explosion rocketed out from the young Yas' body, and engulfed the entire village, burning down houses and livestock instantly, while leaving the humans writhing and screaming while captured in a dark mass of flames. It was then that Eien regained his senses, and spotted the humans in their state. Shocked and frightened, the Yas raced back out of the destroyed village, and headed for home.
I didn't want to hurt them. I never had. But I couldn't control myself. And because of that, they experienced an eternal torture. All because of me.
When Eien got home to his parents, the frightened young Yas recounted the whole event to them, all the while shivering in fear. Exchanging worried and saddened glances, Eien's mother finally broke the silence, and told her only son. "My son, you aren't...you aren't a wolf. You're a Yas. I'm sorry we've kept this from you for so long. Perhaps it's been too long, now that your powers have been released." At those words, Eien's young mind churned with many thoughts. Too many for his undeveloped self to handle. An anguished cry escaped his throat, and the Yas backed away from his parents. Opening his jaws to yell at his parents, Eien was shocked to see the same dark flame that had engulfed him earlier emerge and engulf his parents. As his parents fell to the ground screaming in pain, the Yas backed out of the den he shared with his family and ran, attempting to run away from his troubles and pain.
I regretted it. I regretted it greatly. But what was done, was done. And no matter how much I regretted it, I could never erase the events that had already occurred.
As Eien grew up to become an adult, he kept himself away from others as much as he could, in the fear that he would hurt them again. In this time, he trained with his flames, and managed to master them completely. Only then did the fully grown Yas decided to venture out into the outside world, and start his life anew. He had accepted his past, and though it saddened him greatly, the Yas' thoughts had matured, and he could now put it behind him. Wandering the world, never staying in one place for long, Eien had managed to avoid using his flames too much, and had avoided all conflicts and quarrels.
I am a wanderer. Never to find a home. Never to settle down. And I must never settle down. For if I do, I will hurt many others again, and destroy the lives of those who care for them.

Power:
Eien has the ability to create and control flames of darkness, also known as the Flames of Hell, as they are able to make those engulfed in the flames feel the same burning sensation as the hottest of flames even though they aren't being burnt physically. In other words, those caught in his flames will experience the sensation of being burnt to death until the end of their days.
Eien is able to both breathe and create this fire from scratch, and though these flames are considered extremely dangerous to whoever comes into contact with it, it has absolutely no effect whatsoever on him and those who he wishes not to torture to death. One can say that Eien has absolute control over the flames, as he decides who gets burnt by his flames, who gets tortured by the flames, and who the flames have no effect on.
