Mikoto is mainly a guy that has no big goals or anything, He just wants to eat, drink and live. Even through hunting is funny it's dangerous so he would really like a partner for his natural needs. Hibary all in all apears to stranger as either cold and scary or nice, depending on if he wants to be left alone or have company. Hibary is actually an quite carrying person but only for those he has given a place in his heart.

POWERS
Damphyr: Half bred children of a Vampyr / Human parents. Almost all of the strengths and none of the weaknesses of their Vampyr parent.
Racial Traits:
He is the offspring of a Vampyr and a Human, for that reason he got all the strengh of a normal vampire combined with the ability to walk around at day and not melting when meeting divine abilitys, even through they hurt him a lot more than normal. He can sleep and likes to do that but he can also go on without sleep for weeks. He doesn't age anymore, just like his parents once he is full grown he will stop aging. He won't die form age or sickness only way to die is getting killed. As he is an unusual version of an Vampyr his bites doesn't turn people into his kind but instead give the victim a giant feeling of plesure. The only way to make people turn into his kind is by letting them drink his blood and even so they won't get much stronger than they were already before transforming.
Near imortality:
Since he is only half, Outside of fight's he is abel to heal nearly every wound he recived even lethal one withing 2 minuts or 4 weeks, the only exeption to this rule is a served of head. If you want to kill him cut of or pierce through his head
Guardian:
The special ability of his family the Guardian. It's an formless dark magic that moves by his will and is attached to his back, If release it looks like two big black and red moving wing like things but it is formless meaning Mikoto can give it any needed form and even move it so it will surround his arm or any part of his body. Effective range is 2-5 meter. Up to 1.5 meters the energy is truely formless but at 5 meters hes only caple of making 2 different forms. An offensice form and an travel form.
Travel form: The black/red wing like things that appear when released are getting more form and actually look like two 5 meter long wings. Mikoto is abel to actually fly with them over long distances. He can fly for 5 hours straigh and with an top speed of 80 km/h
An offensive form: 2-4 long tentacle like things with sharp head ends to pierce an enemy. These 4 can be moved "freely" and have an diameter of 50cm. With freely I mean that they can flex and bend into every direction. When he chooses to use 4 his range get limited to 2.5 meters while it's full 5 meter if he only creats two of them.
Since I'm not sure if my explanation on the look is good enough
Racial weakness:
He needs blood to survive. Even through he is half human and abel to eat human food, without blood he will slowly loose his powers and after one week without it he will die. Divine ability leave wounds that never heal fully so eveny divine ability will give him scars and it also ignores most of his Near imortality meaning an divine ability through his heart will kill him. And an cut of limb will take months to re-grow.
Damn sun: When staying in the sun for 1 hour he looses his guardian ability. It takes him 3 hours out of the sun to regain it.
POSSESSIONS
Selion:
a sword forged by one of the already dead masters of Seiretei, It in engraved with runes so it will never rust or get blunt, it has also runes to make it more durrable so destroying it is also extremly hard.
Selion
Armor
Regular plate/leather armor and a long black coat.
Suit & Hat
The black suit he is wearing on the pic, a master piece made by one of the oldest tailor in sanctum. He even gave him an fitting hat to it.
Gold

Acoustic guitar
an black accoustic guitar he once bought a long time ago. When bored or in good company he tends to play it.
I am meant to be on vacation at the moment, but this guy has been sitting in registration for a while now. For a starting level character, Mikoto is very unbalanced. A Vampire’s weaknesses are what balance out what would otherwise be very strong abilities. Saying Mikoto does not have them means he needs to be significantly weaker than a base level vampire overall.
The character can have a maximum of:
2 times strength
2x the endurance
2 times speed
2x Reflexes
2x senses
... of an average human, on top of his racial abilities of:
heightened regeneration / survivability.
not needing to sleep and immunity to sickness
There is no room in the character for his Guardian ability without reducing the character’s sheer physical presence by sacrificing his Strength and Endurance, or his Speed and Reflexes. However, it is something you can look at building into down the track with milestones.
As soon as you rebalance the character one of the Staff members will be able to have a final look at him and hopefully get Mikoto out into the world.
okey I thought of an different rebalance that might also be inside the allowed parameters. I get the things you wrote down and the guardian ability but I add the weakness of sun into it.
In a breakdown of what I edited it to it's. 2 times strength 2x the endurance 2 times speed 2x Reflexes 2x senses
... of an average human, on top of his racial abilities of:
heightened regeneration / survivability. not needing to sleep and immunity to sickness + guardian But After staying in sunlight for 5 min he loose his guardian ability and his bonus strengh, endurance, speed, reflexes, sense until he stay out of the sun for an hour. So In the sunlight he would be no stronger than a normal human?
If that isn't good enought then I will sacrifice the bonus strengh and maybe completly re-think my concept of his power
A weakness is defines as something that will adversely affect a character which would have no impact on a standard human. A basic vampire as outlined in the supernatural race creation guide does not have any physical modifiers during the daylight hours, and will die within 60 seconds of being exposed to sunlight. (Sunlight will not kill a normal human, that is what makes it a balancing weakness.) What you have listed is what we consider a limitation and will not have as much impact on a character's power balancing.
I am not entirely clear on what Guardian actually is or does for the character, could you please explain it in more detail.
Ohhh good to know so my idea was only a limitation >.< Well for an explanation it acts like extra limbs. Like it will always be connected to mikotos back. but it doesn't have a premade form. Well how do you explain it best. Mikoto can cover his arm in it to block an sword strike or use it as an blade around his arm. He could also use it to attack an bear that pins him down. So you could say that this ability acts like 2extra arms with swords on them. But without a premade form and the ability to bend and move by his will..... But it's only long enough to nearly reach his finger tips.... Hope that explainsit ... I'm not sure how else I could explain it in English^^
I like it, the massive utility factor with Guardian makes it a very powerful ability. 1.5 metre range would mean it could touch the ground. Being able to shift into armour or weapons or pretty much anything to suit any occasion is fantastic, but it is too much with the physical enhancements and regeneration.
Most starting level character consist of 1 to 2 racial traits and 1 power, or a number of racial traits OR a number of linked powers (some balanced combination around there). Mikoto has 3 significant racial traits and 1 high utility power.
The options I can see for the character is:
Option 1
Maintaining the characters physical attributes WITHOUT Guardian.
Option 2
Selecting only 1 of the characters main racial abilities:
Regeneration & Durability,
Strength & Endurance, OR
Speed & Reflexes.
AND developing Guardian up a bit more, possibly giving the ability more range. Something like Guardian, as a characters main ability, could have up to a 5 metre radius on it ( which would mean he could use the ability as wings to fly with or something equally as fun ) provided it was limited to 2 main appendages at that range.
Option 3
OR introducing a weakness to balance the character out as they currently are.
I choose options 2^^ Thanks for the great options and all the work you put in it^^ once I get on my pc I will start to edit it the way it needs to be done^^
