Name: Berach McTine
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Personality:
Skill Level: Swordsmanship: Advanced
Skill Level: Speed and Agility: Intermediate
Skill Level: Hand-to-hand: Intermediate
History/Background:
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Personality:
Since Berach was a boy he was raised at the temple. He was taught to appreciate nature and understand it's potential. He was risen by his grandmother and taught to live with a certain code of honor.Appearance:
When Berach was six, his grandmother decided that he should start school. He enlisted in a small private school 30 miles away from the temple. While at school, he didn't make a lot of friends. He was regarded as an idealist and a visionary. People would see him space out and mumble to himself. He also never payed attention in school.
The few friends he had that actually took the time to get to know him soon realized that he was not crazy. Underneath his blank exterior was a strategic, caring, fun loving mind. If a friend was in danger, he would, without hesitation, help them, no matter the odds.
But there were some people that Berach thought of trash as well. These people were those that bullied the weak and are narcissistic. He believes that everyone is equal and no one is above another.
(OOC: For future reference, I'm making him 100% Irish, including the awkward phrases too. Such as Feck, which is literally just a neutral filling adjective meaning nothing.)
Origin of Power:
Berach is a typical teenager in regards to clothing style and hair style. He's average height and weight, being about 5'11 and weighing about 140 lbs. He doesn't stand out, or wear anything special with the exception of his hair, which is medium length and red. He also has the traditional Irish green eyes. When hanging out with his friends, he always has a smile on his face.
The only thing that Berach always wears is a green jacket.. Underneath his jacket are several Ash leaves native to his homeland of Ireland. His grandmother grows this special Ash tree at their shrine/village.

Berach has always trained in the ways of the druids. His grandmother has taught Berach all she knew since he was young. His main focus was the manipulation of nature, such as turning leaves into different kinds of weapons.Special Abilities:
He always had a a fairly high reitsu for humans as well. He is able to sense certain things. Because of his training, he also has very good reitsu manipulation and control.
One day, he came home after school to find his village massacred. When he found his grandmother she was near death. She said that he should travel to Karakura Town, that something was amiss. She than told him to drink from the sap of the Great Ash Tree. After he drank, she told him that he now had the true power of the McTine clan, the power to commune with nature.
TrainingPowers First Stage:
~Berach's grandmother has trained him since he was young how to use Nádúr Schmat for survival and defense purposes. (Sort of like the temples own form of Martial Arts)
Driving
~Since his school is far away, Berach has a simple driver's license.
Druidism
~ Berach's grandmother is a druid priestess. He has fallowed Druidism all of his life.
Berach has the power to turn objects of nature, into weapons and equipment that is infused with reitsu. He can only channel his reitsu into the object by physical contact.Powers Second Stage:
Nádúr Fuip (Nature Whip)
~Berach is able to channel his reitsu into a form of nature (typically on of Berach's Ash leaves) and turn it into a thorn whip. Berach is able to make the whip grow up to 15 feet long.
Nádúr ClaÃomh (Nature Sword)
~Simular to Nádúr Fuip, but instead, he turns an object of nature into a green sword with a blade about 24 inches long. The hilt of the blade looks as though it's made from a twisted vine.
Nádúr Cumarsáid (Nature Communication)
~Berach is able to understand the language of plant-life. He is able to talk to plants like a human talks to fellow humans. He can ask them if they've seen anything or anyone. Since this specific ability is only limited to communication, it's strictly used for reconnaissance. The distance of which he can communicate relies only on the distance his words can carry (How loud he can talk). Since it's verbal communication, using it in battle is not recommended.
Nádúr Sciathán (Nature Wing)Skill Level: Special Items: Advanced
~Berach is able to channel his reitsu into an Ash leaf and put it on his back. The leaf then grow roots that stab into Berach's back. After the leaf has rooted, it transforms into a pair of vine wings. These wings enable Berach to fly at speeds up to 90 MPH. He can also use the wings as a shield by moving them in front of him.
The wings are solid but still are light. They are strong enough to stop simple sword attacks. Any more than a simple weapon cut though will slice through.
They also go through a strange for of photosynthesis. Instead of simple light being used as fuel, the plants on his back absorb reitsu. Although they can absorb reitsu, the amount able is minimal and is relitive to Berach's own reitsu. (I.E. If someone weaker than him shoots a very, very weak cero, Nádúr Sciathán can absorb most of it. But if someone stronger shoots a cero at him, the wings are face with to much reitsu and shrivel to nothing. The same goes for melee attacks. Berach's wings are sturdy enough to withstand attacks within his own level or those bellow him. Attacks that are above his level can slice through it more easily.)
Also, the plants have a fast healing rate. If someone was to cut one of the wings in half, it's take about 20 minutes for the wing to heal back to it's original form.
All of Berach's techniques involve nature. And since they all involve plant-life, fire almost instantly cripples him. None of Berach's abilities can survive in cold weather either.

History/Background:
As long as Berach can remember, he had lived with his grandmother. She was a Druid Priestess and was well adapt in spiritual affairs. She taught him the sacred art of Nádúr Schmat (Nature Manipulation).RP Sample:
When he was six, he started school. He was a rather bad student. He would space out and stare out the window, refuse to follow the commands of his teacher's and upper class-men, and he never did work. He had a few friends here and there. Most of his friendships would start with a sort of pity, they felt sorry that BErach had no friends. But as they developed, they grew to truly like him.
Berach's teenage years were mainly spent with his friends and at the temple. He was always hanging out or training. He felt no need for a girl friend or anything of that sort.
One day, as he was returning home from school, he sensed something weird. He couldn't quite put his finger on it, but something was wrong. When he got to his village, everyone had been massacred. He ran around looking for someone who was alive but he found no one.
After he found no one in the village alive, he ran to the temple. He found his grandmother next to the Great Ash Tree. She told him that the reason their village had been cleansed was because of the "Holed Ones". She also said that he must thake his place among the McTine clan and drink form the Sap of the Great Ash.
After drinking, she told him that now he would be able to commune with nature. She said to ask the plants to find the ones that doomed the McTire clan. She died in his arms with some last words of advice.
"Go to Karakura Town."
Berach saw his target. He had been following one of the "Holed ones" for a week now, and it somehow ended up in the middle of the city.
"Damned 'Holey'." he said with a distinct Irish accent, "Why can't they give me a bigger opening!?"
"I'll have to lure him out in the open, to much collateral damage here."
He ran up to the "Holed One" and whistled. "Hey mask face, over here!"
The hollow turned and looked at Berach. It growled and charged him.
*SHIT! This is what i get* he thought as he turned around and ran for the forest, *Hope this fecking beast follows me into the treeline*
Berach ran half a mile into the woods and turned around.
"What's the craic, blow-in?" he said at the "Holed One" as he pulled a leaf out of his coat. He channeled his energy and shaped it into a thorn whip. "Come at me you fecking knacker!"
He twisted his wrist and sent the thorn whip crashing through the "Holed one's" mask.
As he walked away he couldn't understand why his grandmother sent him to Karakura Town in the first place.
