Anyway, this smug lil turd here is named Mizuki Yamauchi. It literally means “Moon on the mountain”, and I had named him that way because of his past. He was made around the same time Hisoka and Nobuko were created, which was around the timeframe where I was obsessed with children being experimented on by crazy scientists.

Mizuki is a Demon. However, instead of staying in Hell, he was for some reason transported to Earth as an infant, on a large hilltop, in the middle of the night (Moon on the mountain). A small group of “scientists” who were heading back to their labs found him and decided to take him. There were several other children, although none of them were ever really allowed to interact much. Mostly so they could grow attached to the scientists, I assume, though I never really thought it out much (when a backstory is so bad even you don’t know why shit happens) . Before Mizuki turned 8, he was loved and adored by the scientists, and he grew to love them as family. But, when he was 8, he started getting experimented on. It was just like Hisoka’s and Nobuko’s, with the chemicals and everything. However, while Hisoka and Nobuko conversed with the other kids regularly, most of the kids Mizuki was with were kept in solitude. Around the time he was 10, he was sitting in his room, which is next to two others, when a small note slipped through a small slit underneath his wall. He opened it and it was from a girl named Jessica who was around his age. She was pretty much just saying hi and asking if he was okay. They became pen-pals and good friends while trying to keep their relationship secret. Eventually, when Mizuki was around 12 or 13, he was able to sneak into her room one night and they talked and eventually admitted that they liked each other. However, the scientists must have somehow found out, and the next morning Mizuki was ushered into a room where Jessica was on some table, tied down. He was forced to stand and watch as she was chopped to bits with an axe. After that, he finally snapped. He grabbed a bunch of chemicals that he could find and injected some scientists when they weren’t looking as he made his way to the middle of the place, where he lit it up and burned it. He ran away, not necessarily caring about all the other kids who would die at that point. From then on, he had an odd fascination with chemicals and everything to do with them, often injecting harmless people who he managed to charm enough to trust him. Oftentimes they didn’t die immediately, but he recorded everything that happened to them and left them where they were until someone came and found them, occasionally they died in hospitals or before anyone found them in time. Keep in mind that, throughout most of his life, he didn’t even know he was a Demon.

Alright! Now, here is the revamped Mizuki! (I don’t know how to add a second pic so I’ll give you that in another submission ^^“)

Mizuki Yamauchi’s new name is Isaiah Cullen. He also now has a new AU surrounding him, and his backstory has some of the same concepts, but done differently (and better). First, let me explain the AU. 

In this AU, Souls, Heaven, Hell, Angels, Demons, and Reapers all exist. There are 3 different types of Souls. Blue souls mean that the entity is extremely benevolent. They have done very little harm in their lives and are very unlikely to do so. Red souls mean that the entity is extremely malevolent. They have done very little good in their lives and are very unlikely to do so, at least any good that isn’t required to meet their desires. Yellow souls mean that the entity is in between. They have done both good and bad in their lives and are likely to do both. Red and Blue souls are both rare, and Yellow is very common. Red souls have a 100% chance of Hell at death, Blue has a 100% chance of Heaven, and Yellow has a 50-50 shot at either. There have also been rumors of two strange Green souls having been found, however they were both retrieved from two infants. It is extremely difficult to pinpoint what Green could mean, as infants have little personality, and other infant souls were any of the other three colors. Until there are more found, it is unknown exactly what they are for. One Green soul is being kept by God, the other by Satan, although it is unknown what for. The normal Human eye is unable to see souls. They are very close to one-dimensional and are located right behind the heart. Unless a Demon or Angel retrieves them and a Human spots it, they are unable to see it. Souls are the life-force for Humans. Let’s think of the body like a machine. The heart is the main mechanism, and each body part and organ are different segments of machine. The heart is vital to the machine working, however, what turns the machine on? Once a Soul has found a way inside of a Human, or when one develops (There are cases of Reincarnation, although rare), the heart starts pumping, and the machine is now functioning. The soul is like the “on”-switch of the body, and if it ever leaves, that’s like flicking the machine “off”. The Soul also holds most of the personality of the entity.

Heaven and Hell aren’t exactly like how we see them today. Hell is not a fiery inferno where Sinners are burned for all eternity. Instead, Hell is dark and freezing. The kind of dark where you can’t see your hand in front of your face, and the kind of cold where if we were able to go in, we would be human icepops in a few minutes. There are no lava pits, but there are normal pits. Once a Sinner is thrown inside and reaches the bottom, they start getting visions. Very, very vivid visions. They are forced to remember and relive the absolute worst moments of their lives. But, it is very personal. A “worst moment” could be anywhere from failing a test to torture and/or rape. 

Demons and Reapers are Sinners who were deemed evil enough to be freed from their torture as a Sinner. Although they are the same class in the slight hierarchy in Hell (Souls/Sinners at the very bottom, Demons/Reapers, “Higher-Ups” that are just very old Demons, then Satan himself). Demons take the souls from the still living. They get an “assignment”, or rather, a victim, from this thing called “The List.” A person on The List can be any color of Soul, which means that a Blue could be sent into Hell, but by Demon only. No one knows how a person gets on The List or if it’s even possible to get off, but really, no one cares, either. But, because of the fact the once the Soul is out it causes near-immediate death, and thus murder, they are only given an assignment once every 6 months, if they’re even that lucky, but most likely once every year or so, to keep suspicions down and play it off as “just another murder” in our world. They can take it in any way they so choose. Demons and Reapers are extremely resistant to cold and have this glow coming from their eyes that is similar to a flashlight, or “nightvision”. They also have wings about the size of them that are black, mostly because the main form of transportation in Hell is flight since the ground is covered in pits. And, since their wings are also thin and are easily able to be burned or clipped, they’re also extremely skilled at running and can run very fast. Most Demons keep their looks from when they died. The “Higher Ups” also have ice abilities. There is also a certain “True Power Mode” that both Demons and Angels get into that is triggered by extreme emotion, but the certain emotion that triggers it varies from person to person. In this mode, Demons are partially controlled by Satan and Angels by God, where they have a new ability that also varies from person to person. They are extremely powerful in this stage, however if they get injured they are immediately thrown out of the Mode and it will be extremely difficult to get back in it.

Heaven is the exact opposite. Heaven is full of light, and is the temperature of a warm, pleasant summer’s day. Instead of pits, there are these stairwells. “Sinners” are replaced by “the Blessed”. The Blessed climb the stairs, and each step is a new memory. Instead of the worst moments of their lives, they only see the best moments of their lives. Again, this can be anywhere from passing a test to something extreme, such as being cured of cancer or having a child. Once they’re considered pure and kind enough, they are able to become an Angel. Angel is just the shortened form of “Guardian Angel” Guardian Angels make sure their assigned Human lives the best life they possibly can and make sure they stay out of harms-way, oftentimes this Human has a Blue soul, and in extremely rare cases, a Red. Angels also keep their looks from when they died. They have pure white wings that are as large as they are, and all the same powers as a Demon, except ice powers are replaced by fire.

Reapers are actually a group of their own, belonging to neither Heaven nor Hell, although Reapers typically were Sinners. Reapers collect the souls from the already deceased and take them to where they need to go, although they do carry scythes mostly because of the fact that sometimes the soul gets stuck inside the body and cannot escape, either some medical deformation or condition blocking it or the person was just very dull, and they need to “help” it, but also just for intimidation purposes. As they take them to both Heaven and Hell, they can usually choose which side they like better and which side to fight for. Their wings are mainly black like Demon wings, as most of them came from Hell, only near the middle of the wings and the rest below is where it fades into pure white like Angel wings, since they’re partially Benevolent and Malevolent. However, Reapers are typically disliked by both groups, as Demons and Angels consider them “part-traitor” for visiting the “other sides.”

Whew, alright, that took a while to type! Now, it’s time for Isaiah. (No break in reading for you.)

Isaiah was born in 1615 in the UK as a Noble. He was a sweet, average child, but once he was 8 he started getting odd, wild outbursts of fury that couldn’t be tamed easily at very random times. Because of this and the fact that there was no medication available for it and no mental doctors, he was locked up in his room for most of his life. He had private tutors that taught him that were sent away whenever a fit came on, but most of them never really came back in fear for their lives.  When Isaiah was around twelve, he was very lucky when his parents told him that he could join them on a shopping trip. As he wasn’t much used to being around people anymore, he stuck close to his parents the whole time, like he was still a toddler. When his parents were window browsing at a bakery, he saw a young girl around his age. She seemed to be a very social person, as she walked up to him while managing to not stray too far from her family. She introduced herself as Isabel. It took a while, but Isaiah eventually introduced himself as well and they began talking. They kept secret contact with each other through letters for a while as well, and became great friends, and eventually developed crushes and started dating. Throughout their relationship, Isabel grew accustomed to his fits, which didn’t die down as he grew older but got worse. She found ways of keeping him calm or calming him down, which ranged from hugs and cuddles to banging him over the head with a frying pan. Eventually, they got engaged and had a wedding. At the Altar, Isaiah felt another fit coming on as his vision slowly started to blur and he felt his mind begin to drift. Once Isabel got to the Altar, she mouthed for him to focus on her, and not anywhere else as she held his hands, and it helped. However, right before the kiss to seal the marriage, Isabel was shot in the head. She had died instantly. Isaiah felt his fit coming full force after the few moments of shock at seeing her dead. But this one felt more like he truly meant it. He quickly turned to face the crowd and saw a man fleeing. He never saw the gun, he never saw the faces of the audience, all he could remember then was tackling the man down the church steps and hitting than man in the head with a large rock until it was nothing but blood and brain. He vaguely remembers the man’s face and remembers him from some family gathering of Isabel’s, so he assumed it was some distant relative. Isaiah had ran. He never looked back once at the church, the man, and definitely not Isabel. He also felt very little need to control himself anymore, and caused several accidents and injuries to others from fits and outbursts that were still getting progressively worse as time went on. He also, of course, made enemies. Isaiah died from a stab wound to the chest at age 24. He was in Hell for 100 years before becoming a Demon, and turned 400 this year.

Typically, Demons also keep their personalities, but He (Satan) knew it would be useless to have a Demon as f***ed up as Isaiah, so he changed a few things around in him so that he only has a very short fuse. Isaiah’s an open person when he wants to be, however he’s not the type to go spilling important secrets. He can also be very sarcastic and a**holish, but otherwise seems calm and cool. He has bad anger issues and will get angry at the smallest thing, occasionally getting so angry that he will shoot something. He has short blonde hair and very pale skin. He is missing his right eye, so he wears an eye patch over it, and never bothered with a glass eye. His other eye is bright green. He typically wears casual clothing. He’s 5'9. Isaiah lost his eye after accidentally losing a soul one day, and the girl he had returned back to life after her Soul found her again. His eye was gouged out as a punishment, but he did get the girl’s soul back. 

Likes: -He loves any kind of sweets, though prefers hard candies.  -He likes spending time alone, usually in some type of forest or clearing while trying to clear his mind. Typically he can be found in trees. -He likes it when things are neat and organized, sometimes even going as far as to alphabetize everything. - He adores cold weather on Earth, as Hell is way below freezing.  Dislikes: -He very much hates sunlight or heat. As Hell is pitch-black and below freezing, Demons are very accustomed to cold and darkness. If they are shown sunlight or heat, they are extremely weak to it. Isaiah describes going out at noon in summer as “Feeling like you’re literally on fire and completely blind.” -He hates Angels, for obvious reasons. -He hates any kind of bulls*** and has low tolerance. If you make him mad enough, he is not afraid to shoot you, fatal or not. -He dislikes messy spaces (which is ironic since he kind of grew up in one), and will attempt to clean and sort everything. -He isn’t a fan of loud crowds, but it’s just a minor dislike he can deal with.

Okay…whew…that’s a lot to type and read! If there’s anything that needs clarifying let me know, I’ll be sending another submission in with Isaiah’s picture!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I really like this! It was following the story line as the first two OC’s you sent in before but the revamp is nice and refreshing!

Im not too sure what I can say or suggest to improve this a whole lot but here I go! ripWhat are the ranking systems, more in depth Is it just Angels Demons Reapers?

If you’re doing a system like that there would be a ranking system, or not, depending on how you want to run your heaven/hell. But if you wanted to have this system it would start with God at the top, then angels like Michael, Gabriel ect. Then lesser angels, and finally the ones who recently turned.

And now on to Isaiah! Why did they start to allow him out of his room, like, if he had such a problem with his outbursts why did his parents suddenly let him come out, and stay out.

Why did his wife get murdered? Whats the reasoning behind that, such as, did her family member not approve of the marriage? Was he a lower ranking noble compared to her? Because back then if you were a lower status you couldn’t marry higher for it would shame your family and throw you out of nobility.

I think thats pretty much it, overall I really like his character!

I too know what its like to have a weeb phase, anyone remember Hetalia?

Cloning is something people often use when going into a science fiction topic, which can be expanded on greatly if given the opportunity.

Hisoka and Nobuko sound like Japanese names? So perhaps you can use that base to form their new names- perhaps you can delve into their personalities and name them off of that, combining words and meanings in Japanese (translated correctly into english so you don’t make any weird combos) that relate to the characters and how they either act, look, or anything really!

You say there in this lab, but what is the lab for and how are those scientists improving or killing the world with their research, ie. are they doing it for the greater good or greater evil?

If you’re going the good route there could be multiple ways you go about this, such as making/cloning people for the purpose of caring for others. Also there could be a chemical warfare that needs genetically mutated specimens to be used as weapons, though this one can go both ways.

The bad route would be the obvious, one or more villains intending to use the children as weapons of mass destruction, possibly cloning more to have an army, reprimanding task force.

Just because the idea started off of something already tangible, doesn’t mean you can’t create an original one from it!

If they’re being experimented on, are they being locked up and stuff? Because if so then you may need to formulate a reason as to how Hisoka got out of the confinement. Even if they’re not being locked up, I’m sure they would separate the experiments and lab, to keep it sterile (unless the doctors are unsanitary).

How did Hisoka get the weapon, and how did they overpower the scientists enough to kill them, because they would have had to be adults that have a considerably higher mass ratio to the kids. With this new question in your head you can now play with the fact that the mutations changed their genetic code and altered their body features in an accelerated pace, causing the dramatic shift in appearance/appendages.

If you decide to keep the shift, ears tail ext, maybe theres other races of creatures inhabiting the world too? Which will help plot out and add more mystery to the plot such as; How did the chemicals inserted into her cause her genetic code to shift/lean towards a certain race/species.

This addition of other creatures can also help explain how her sibling turned into a shadow, when she should be dead.

(Or the experiments awakened latent powers within her, causing her body to go into shock and into a state of suspended animation sorry I’m a huge science fiction nerd)
