Background:
Deadman Wonderland Canon
Kiyomasa Senji canon

Personality:
At first, Senji seems like your typical run of the mill crazy criminal. He enjoys violence, even going so far as to attack anyone who gets in the way of his fights. He constantly talks about how much he likes battling, and how fun and entertaining it is to have a proper battle with somebody of equal standing.

He truly does enjoy all of those things, but Senji's personality goes a lot deeper. He himself has an honourable side- which he expects everyone else to respect till the very end. He will not fight someone if they are down, he likes to have them stand up and take hits from him the proper way, kicking someone when they are unable to battle is just not his style. A fair fight means the most to him, and gives him the greatest satisfaction when he is able to beat the person. If the person beats him however, an even deeper appreciation of that person will grow- meaning that the certain someone who beat him will be unable to lose until he can fight and defeat them once more. He would get furious if he finds out someone that beat him was off battling elsewhere, Senji cherishes his fights.

The biggest weakness he probably has, would be the fact that he is a hardcore prude. He would get worked up just talking to women, but when they wear something that's revealing or clinging tightly to their bodies- that's when things get real for him. The very thought of it makes him blush, however when he sees other women in such attire he would either get a nosebleed, pass out, or a combination of the two. In short, Senji would rather all women wear something that covered every inch of their bodies so he would not have to look at their curves. At one point in time he had taken off his own jacket and shoved it at another female, simply because her clothes were too tightly clinging to her body. He mentioned that it was dangerous, obviously meaning that other men would ogle her, or he would be forced to look at her more than he would like to. He watches out for other girls this way, but it also makes it difficult to have female companions since he’s worried about such a thing all the time.

There are a few things that get Senji riled up or shocked. One of them would be when his past is brought up, or mocked. He does not like it when someone talks about what has happened to him so casually, doing so would earn the person a good boot to the face. This would be one of the few times Senji would hold a grudge against someone. The only other time he would not forgive someone- is if they turned into some kind of traitor. Senji is a very trusting individual once he likes the person, he would go out of his way to help them out in any situation. There would have to be some begging involved, but eventually Senji would cave and help the person out the best to his ability. Since he is like this, if someone betrays his trust, he will immediately label them a traitor, thus making his attitude towards them bitter and unpleasant. Such a thing would be evident when it seemed like Ganta had betrayed all the other Deadmen by accidentally attacking them, after he had said that the forgeries needed to be helped. Senji was upset over anyone who would side with the forgeries, since they gave him a mask that mocked his past, so he yelled at Ganta and told him to go away. Afterwards however, he and the other Deadmen went and assisted Ganta, eventually forgiving him.

He truly believes that those who constantly rely on others are children and that they need to learn to grow up and be their own individual. Senji used to be that way when he was a cop, he talked tough since he could use his Branch of Sin, and back then he also had his four best friends to hide behind. Eventually, he came to learn that always relying on them was weak, and that he had to stand up on his own. However, being relied on is something that gives Senji strength to press on and accomplish anything he puts his mind to. Senji acts like a big tough guy, but he does this to protect his soft side, which is the most vulnerable thing about him. He trusts people easily, and can also easily get hurt due to it, but he wouldn’t openly show himself being hurt- no, he would rather bottle up such emotions and keep it all inside.

Senji is a sentimental individual, and this is clear when he brings out a coin at random intervals. Sometimes he’ll take out this coin and flip it, calling heads or tails. It’s a trick coin however, and both sides are tails. This kind of thing tricked Senji back when he was a cop, and his chief did it to him with this item often. After his chief was murdered and slowly died before him, he had taken that coin and have been holding on to it for years.

He also likes to say his own little catchphrase to himself or to other people, but it doesn’t really mean anything. The saying he likes is ‘zuppashi’ and no one really knows what he’s saying, but it can be deciphered as something like a gun, or cutting something up- in the kind of context he uses it in. Dead center, on target, ssslice, bang- there are several different ways of translating ‘zuppashi,’ and another time he says it- would be when he’s overly angry. He mentioned that his “zuppashi gauge maxed out” one time when he went to save Ganta from Hagire. Let it be known that this is merely a made up word, and Senji loves to use it. Even though no one really know what he’s talking about half the time.

Abilities:
Branch of Sin: In the Deadman Wonderland world there is something called a Branch of Sin. Essentially, after the Red Hole incident (an earthquake that had submerged most of Tokyo) there was an outbreak of strange occurrences. The biggest one would be that suddenly certain people had the ability to control their blood if they had sustained a wound. These people were dubbed 'Deadmen' and soon they had been found out by certain people and dragged off to prison whether they were guilty or not. These Deadmen each have original powers, their Branch of Sin is always something different that's suited to that individual.

-Crow Claw: Senji's Branch of Sin is known as Crow Claw, he uses the rings on his thumbs which contain razors in them and he slashes his forearms. From those wounds he's able to turn his blood into giant curved blades. They're very sturdy and razor sharp, he's never hesitated to cut somebody up. He's perfected this ability and he's learned how to extend the blades as well. By making little holes inside of the blade he's able to make it bigger and bigger, eventually reaching outstanding lengths. He has made massive blades before, much bigger than him, but this requires a lot of blood and is very dangerous to do.

-Invisible Black: A variation of his Branch of Sin. Senji is able to focus all of his power into his hand, the wound sustained there would then unleash an epic attack. He's able to bring out a blade that is faster than the speed of sound, it's extremely powerful and he's only able to do this once in a while since it takes so much concentration. It cuts up any enemies in his path, they would be sliced up before the person could even blink.

Alignment: Sosyne. After the incident of when he was a police officer, and his friends were killed, Senji went on a rampage. He was angry and it was all consuming. He had become so angry and volatile that he had essentially decided to 'kill' the person he was before. He refused to be nice and caring like he had been before and he wanted to be a killer to take out his frustrations on others. He had been tossed in jail and used his status to fight to the death for seven years in order to satisfy himself. It wasn't until he met Ganta did he start to settle down and see that he didn't need to be so angry anymore and that he really was still a good and caring person.

Other:
Contrary to popular belief, Senji's first name is indeed Kiyomasa. This can be confusing since he seems to have two first names, along with the fact that no one calls him Kiyomasa in canon. However with his name written as 千地 清正 (Senji Kiyomasa) it becomes clear with the last name first name order.


⌈ SAMPLE SECTION ⌉

General Sample: Test Drive

Emotion Sample:

Really, the biggest seller of this place was probably the expression of emotions. The part that bothered him the most? The expression of emotions. To him, it was irritating at best. As a Deadman they were all trained to keep whatever they are actually feeling hidden, anyone could use that to their advantage and wreck them over it. The only thing they ever felt like they actually had, were their own feelings.

Which a lot of them had grown out of touch with, Senji included.

He preferred to pretend that what he was feeling wasn't real, he liked to hide them under a sickening grin or behind blades of blood. It was easier that way. Harm one self to hurt another, the cycle would keep on repeating. In this place he couldn't do that, and it was... frustrating.

Whenever he helped someone he would just say he was passing through, that it was no big deal, however he couldn't hide the lights that shone around him from the happiness of someone relying on him. If he ever said something wasn't bothering him, it was revealed just how mad he was with the burning heat coming off of him in intense waves. It felt so open, and he just didn't like it.

Today was no different, except for today his true feelings and emotions were definitely in sync. It was typically when he was fighting someone, when he felt like nothing else mattered except for the thrill of the hunt, the kill. Someone had robbed one of the local shops and he decided to chase them down before any of the real authorities showed up. Why? Eh, he liked to torment someone from time to time.

Once he had cornered the man there was a distinct feeling in the air... it was dry, maybe? As though he were thirsty? Yes, he was craving some bloodshed and he knew he wouldn't be able to get away with this for long, so time was running short. With his Crow Claws drawn his blades were ready to go. The man had a weapon on him too, a knife that he was crazily swinging around. Senji, without so much as stepping forward, moved his Branch of Sin into tendrils and sliced the knife into pieces before him.

"Hah!" he laughed, feeling a rush of pure joy run through him, "what're you gonna do now?" he knew that he wouldn't be able to hurt this guy too much, he wasn't about to get tossed in jail again after all. Still, he wanted to leave a mark. Senji approached him quickly, a jabbing forward and nearly struck the man's face. It was inches from his cheek, the blade having cut it slightly and the blood was now running down his face.

"Drop the stuff 'n never do this kinda shit again, or else it'll give me an excuse to really cut you up," which, unfortunately, was the truth. The man squealed and ran off, dropping what he had stolen. Senji grinned at that, wishing that he could have cut him up and coated the walls with some of that man's blood. Another time, perhaps, he would get the chance to really let loose.

Ah, the dry feeling in the air was starting to go away, but he could say with certainty that he still wasn't fully satisfied. He clicked his tongue at that fact, and then looked down at the goods that were taken. He shrugged, picking them up. Might as well bring them back and say that he found these on the ground somewhere, only for his emotions to betray him yet again and show off how happy he was to return the stuff back to its rightful owner.
