Kotoro Facts

Kotoro Facts & Descriptions, so far.

This is going to be a rather jumbled collection until I sort it out

Kotoro was originally part of the Legion of Angels AKA The Seraphim. He was a Lieutenant General serving under General Lucifer Satanel. When ordered by Satan to rebel against heaven, he was so torn by his loyalty to both heaven and his superior officer (who had been his friend and mentor) that he lost control and started attacking angels on both sides. Eventually he got control of himself and joined Heaven's side. In recognition of the fact that he never truly joined Satan's side, when Satanel was cast into Hell, renamed Satan, and appointed to the rank of Samael (lord of all demons), Kotoro was given a task and was set aside to wait for the appointed time. To regain his holy status and full angelic nature, Kotoro must complete, or martyr himself in a decent attempt to complete, his ultimate mission in the mortal realms.
When Kotoro's soul was put into a mortal body his memory of everything before his birth was sealed deep within him. He has not yet unlocked his memory of his true nature. His biological nature is no less interesting than his spiritual nature. He is a hybrid of two human-derived species. His mother was studying the Saiya-jin when she met Kotoro's father. She was called back to Centurai, by the council of elders, to report her findings. She left in a dropship, allowing the mothership to remain buried on planet Vegeta. She left Kotoro with his father, and he grew up to be one of the lesser known Saiya-jin who served King Vegeta from the shadows. Kotoro escaped the destruction of Planet Vegeta by entering his mother's buried Interstellar Mothership, which was in no danger of being destroyed by someone of Frieza's power, causing it to activate a pre-programmed escape program, turning on its stealth mode. He directed the AI to follow baby Kakkarott's ship to Earth. The guardian of Earth did not trust Kotoro, but tempted him with the offer of training in the Room of Spirit and Time. The guardian of Earth and the Kais used an ancient ,powerful sealing magic to lock Kotoro in a giant glacier of ice in the Hyperbolic time chamber.

I'm going to write a general description here of what the forms should look like. Not all of this is physical description. Its purpose is to give a general feel to the character.

The appearance of the character was supposed to be: hair that is a mix of Goku teen Gohan, and Vegeta and the face is supposed to look a little bit like them.. and a little bit like me if I were in a manga (minus the glasses, obviously). It might be a better idea to work off the pictures I put online, but its up to the artist. I don't care if the resulting face looks different from the pictures I already drew. I might even like a different appearance more.

The following description is about the colors of the different forms.

Normal: Light brown hair (almost blonde, but not quite), emerald eyes, variable aura
Super Saiya-jin: Golden hair, emerald eyes, golden aura
Super Centurion: Sapphire Hair, Ruby eyes, emerald aura,
Super Hybrid (incomplete): Emerald Hair, "whites" of eyes black, golden iris, Sapphire aura
Super Hybrid (complete): White hair with minute streaks of other colors, "whites" of eyes black, golden iris, Black Aura

Super Centurion and Super Saiya-jin would look identical in black and white except for shading differences (due to grayscale differences between red/green/blue colors etc). The incomplete hybrid forms hair. looks like the picture labeled "Hybridizing" on my web site. (that picture is actually a snapshot of the transformation between incomplete and complete forms so it has qualities of both.)

Super Saiya-jin forms provide a strong boost to physical power, speed, and energy output. Once mastered it also provides some bonuses to willpower, psychic strength etc.
Super Centurion forms provide a strong boost to mental clarity, energy control, speed, energy output, psychic strength and willpower. Once mastered it also provides a decent bonus for physical power.

Incomplete hybridization only adds the form's bonuses together, complete hybridization multiplies them.

In the course of the story, Kotoro will activate the Super Saiya-jin form first via righteous rage. He will inadvertently discover the Super Centurion form, which responds to a calm mind focused strongly on a goal coupled with strong hope. (Once a form is unlocked, the original emotions are not required to activate, it is simply like flipping the correct internal switch.) He will discover the incomplete hybrid form by activating the Super Saiya-jin transformation while in Super Centurion form. Finding this form extremely difficult to control, he will work on it until he is able to get the forms to resonate and sustain each other properly, creating the complete form.

Once he is able to use the hybrid form effectively, he will not use the non-hybrid forms in serious battles. He will use them when training them to attempt to achieve higher level of competence in those forms.

Activation of Angel form takes whatever form is already present, makes it more "majestic" (better looks, healthier appearance, etc), and gives it wings. Partial mortal-angel form has the Astral wings of Diablo II angels. Full mortal-angel form has physical Eagle-like wings and takes away the hair's spikiness without reducing its length.. The color of the wings varies along the grayscale according to how much evil is clouding Kotoro's thoughts. Super-Saiya-jin forms tend to push them toward the black end, Super centurion Forms tend to push them toward the white end. Incomplete hybrid varies wildly and quickly, since the forms are not working completely in synchronization. Complete hybrid form behaves the same as normal would, since the opposing forces cancel their respective influences (on the amount of evil) out.

Also, the more acts Kotoro performs in the service of his mission (and of the general good), the less evil is able manipulate his feelings and the whiter his wings will appear in a given situation. The more sins he commits, the more power evil has over him, and the blacker his wings get. If his wings ever reach pure white, evil will completely lose its hold on him and he will be able to regain his immortal angel status when his mortal body dies. If his wings ever become pure black, he will turn completely into a demon and will be beyond redemption. His soul's offenses prior to mortal life added to conditions inherent in growing up in Saiya-jin society left him at a very dark gray starting point.

Most likely the only time Kotoro would ever really need to use angel form, he would already be in complete hybrid form. The only major difference in appearance with this would be that the full-mortal angel form hair is no longer spiky, it is not returned to normal either since the normal hair is spiky. (If it was applied to Super-hybrid 3 [which would be similar in appearance to Super Saiya-jin 3, or Goku_SSJ5.JPG [minus the body hair.], the removal of spikiness would result in a hairstyle similar to Sephiroth's from FF7, only slightly longer and whiter)
