Owner or Non-Owner?:
Non-owner
Name:
Kabu
(a cute nickname given to him by a child he sang to sleep-the eternal sleep)
Gender:
Supposedly male, but he doesn't have any reproductive parts, so there's no way to be certain.
Basic Personality:
It's hard to tell..
Kabu is distant, almost empty and dead really. He watches people and seems pretty harmless most times. Past his voracious appetite, he seems pretty placid. You can poke him, climb all over him, even stab him, shoot him or yank on his tail and he just looks at you blankly. He often tries to mimic others, having 'fun' with them and trying to act as if he were alive, yet he really just looks stupid trying to do things like others. He never chases people away, but he doesn't seem to ever properly fit in with anyone. He's like that awkward third wheel on a supervised date, or that odd kid who stands in the corner with a drink and doesn't talk to anybody. Though he doesn't seem to mind at all. Kabu is never lonely and just kinda deals with life as it is. He doesn't seem to mind at all and never really says anything past his name, "Kabu", often chanting it excitedly when people ask him who he is. Kabu is a bit silly, in that he tries to act like he's alive and normal when he obviously isn't. Often, he'll play with children and scare their parents to death, or show up in your bathroom mirror to say 'hello' every now and again. He's really just a cute, innocent bundle of love and indifference. It's almost as if he's just a husk, but oddly enough he's loving... very loving...
First Memory:
Cold. It was so very cold... as if all life in the air itself had been stripped away, leaving a dead feeling everywhere. A pitiful squeal erupted from him as he squirmed, feeling a cold hand pluck him up. He felt his body weaken and slow, cradled close with such affection and care. His eyes peeked through the barely open lids, looking up with blurry vision. A hand reaching for his face... and then he felt the finger tips brush his flesh, feeling leaving him as the skin and muscles, even his eyes were taken... and yet he was still alive. Alive, was that a way to put it? He didn't quite feel... right. A calm swept over him and he was enveloped in this feeling of peace. He could see the face of this being that held him so lovingly, it's smooth, pale complexion, that empty gaze, teeth so sharp and smooth, the bones dripping with rotted meat and an oily substance. Slowly but surely, it was rotting. With a gentle hand it caressed his cheek and set him down. It was dying... or... it was already dead? and yet now it's body had decided to rot. He watched with his taciturn stare as it slowly dug into the earth, bits and pieces of it's body falling off occasionally. The smell that came from it was rank, but he didn't mind. It was almost comforting and nostalgic, oddly enough being that he had just been born and had no memory of anything before. Once the hole was deep enough, it laid down, and some unknown force pushed the dirt in on top of it, burying what had given him such peace. There had been no explanation, and yet he felt no confusion about it. He was okay. With that, Kabu rested... and by morning, he would be the next to wander the earth in search of souls looking for peace.
Daily Life:
Kabu usually wakes up and un-buries himself, shaking loose any dirt clumps and tending to wander off aimlessly. He walks without purpose or drive, simply going off of whims and headed for nowhere. He eats corpses he finds, enjoys watching people, following them, and observing things. His daily life is pretty empty unless someone bothers with him.
It's not unheard of that he takes after others or enjoys living with someone, but the few that keep him around he usually outlives and has to move on. His life is usually empty, but occasionally, on special finds, he enjoys the company of others, tending to be young children or the elderly who have come to terms with death and don't mind him at all. He does enjoy playgrounds, or maybe he does or maybe he just goes there to watch the children, who knows. He just shows up there and pretty much tries to interact with the young pups.
At the end of the day, or whenever he decides to sleep, he digs a 'grave' and buries himself. Kabu doesn't really sleep unless he's buried, so he doesn't really work well with beds. He sometimes tries to bury himself in the blankets though, but it's not the same.
Where does this Rukami live:
Nowhere, or well, everywhere. He mainly just wanders about and buries himself in the dirt to sleep. He doesn't really need to sleep, but he enjoys the comfort of being buried, like he should be.
He might enjoy a few nights of being under someone's bed, or in a closet somewhere. He's like the boogeyman, except he's harmless(most of the time).
How does this Rukami feel about other Kami?:
He doesn't really know. Following them around, they usually think he's out to gobble up their soul, or maybe a demon, a corrupted soul or a dying beast. However they react, he just watches them idly without any real opinion on them. Like watching ants swarm and scatter. Watching them takes up most of his time for most days.
What is their life secret:
It's not really like he keeps it a secret, but it seems like one to others.
He was killed in the womb. He was an unwanted pregnancy. They couldn't afford a child and so they figured they'd cause a miscarriage or abort him. It did occur(one way or another), and Kabu did die... but someone else gave him a chance. Kabu acknowledges that he was never really 'born' and that he wasn't wanted, but he harbors no ill will towards his mother. He never met her though, and doesn't know her face, her name, or anything. She's long since dead by now, but he doesn't really care. Any knowledge of his father is unknown.
How does this Rukami do it's Reaping:
He follows them slowly, without them knowing. He follows everyone though, but when he wishes to take their life, he does so for a long time, usually out of sight, and when their time has come, he sings them lullabies. For the grim reaper... he has a lovely voice. Each song is unique to the soul he calls, never the same twice. It welcomes them with open arms and leads them to the everlasting peace.
Does this Rukami have a loved one:
Not exactly, he lacks the chemical reaction and behavioral patterns to attach himself to others or experience attraction. He is incapable of having romantic interests or having a 'crush' or 'lover'. He is a being purely of the soul, and thus he is not held by such things. This doesn't mean he is incapable of love, just not the mortal definition of love. His love is without bias, without limitations... it is boundless. He loves purely. His love is not romantic... So he does not exactly have loved ones, he loves everyone. Kabu loves anyone he meets without any hesitation, even those who seek to hurt him. In a way he does, and doesn't have loved ones.
