Yoru



"I will kill you! The entire Solar System...WILL BE YOUR GRAVE!!"

- Yoru threatening Issei(bohoo, so frightening)

Yoru(夜 Yoru 'Night') was a major antagonist in Warriorman's story Highschool DxD: Rise of the Solar God. He's the son of Tsukuyomi-no-Mikoto, as well as this universe's Issei's destined rival/arch-enemy. Later on in the story up to one of its successors-Highschool DxD: The Misadventures of the Moong God, Yoru has been shown in a more neutral light, like many other characters in the Solarverse(who yeah, will always end up being either neutral, good or dead)

Appearance
Yoru's appearance is reminiscint of the famous DBZ non-canon(now apperently canon) villain- BROOOLY CENAAA. His second appearance leans more towards Natusno Yuuki from the most realistic vampire anime ever- Shiki. Okay, so 17 Years Old Yoru is basically a discount Broly, even in his transformations. 21 Years Old Yoru is a Natsuno copy-cat, appearance and persona-wise. He was tall, buff as a bull and had a weird weed-like hair that reached past his shoulders. Four years after his resurrection, Yoru's appearance changes drastically. Due to lack of training and excersing, he quickly looses his bodybuilder-like form and instead becomes quite skinny, but still slim and fussably attractive on normal standards. The purple hue in his hair and eyes is more visible(hehe, Anty too lazy to edit pictures so he makes excuses, HEHEHEHE) now. His outfit usually consists of scrawny, second-rate clothes worth a bag of trash. He has circles around his eyes, cuz...I don't know, non-stop boner or something. Whatever, on to the next paragraph...

Personality
17 Years Old Yoru is Broly...That's all you need to know. He hates his cousin, simply because his solar/stellar energy causes him huge discomfort, not because of personal grudge. He sees everything and everyone as trash and scum. He constatly has omnicidal intentions(cuz you know, that's what a Broly does...). He was constatly kept locked in the mansion, so therefore he lacks social skills and has limitted cognitive function, relying primarly on his instincts and primal emotions. He hates his father for making him into such a monster.

21 Years Old Yoru is, like I said, Natsuno copy-cat, but an interesting one. Unlike his past self, this Yoru has explored life and its boundaries. He has visitted Japan and its many cities. He has befriended many members of his and other factions. This Yoru is more reserved, calm, respective and even slightly empathetic. All of his previous omnicidal intents are gone and his hatred for his cousin and father(and pretty much the whole world) had been halted, though not completely diminished. You see, he still hates everybody, but in a far milder way. He still dislikes Issei greatly, but he respects him, cuz you know...he's become so strong he can literally flicker his hand and Yoru would be dead in a second. And he doesn't particalarly like Amaterasu the way a normal nephew would, but there is some appreciation for her kindness and preference for parental figure. He still hates his pops the most.

History
Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi, thanks to plot convinience, gave life to their spawns on the same day, same timing and similar situations, except the drama, that wasn't Tsukuyomi's thing. No, he urged to keep his son to himself and exploit him, like every cliche villain-dad. He did not allow Yoru to go out of the vicinity of his mansion, treated him coldly and unkindly(yup, totally never heard that one before...) and when he misbeheaved in whatever way, Tsukuyomi would either harshly scold him or lock him up in his basement and put a sleeping spell on him. While we have no idea how those Cena-like muscles came to be, with all the nucturing and forced sleeping, but its obvious that Tsukuyomi's mistreatment of his son backfired on his face, both literally and methaphorically. Like with Amaterasu, Yoru grew to his father the most and wanted to do nothing but to get away from him, even if it meant killing him brutally.

After Issei tapped into his solar forms, Yoru tapped into his primal instinct of fighting your opposite and went into Broly-mode. He became an Issei-thirsty animal, who wanted nothing more than to see his cousin in pieces. A slightly advanced gorilla, if you'd like to call him. Regardless his father desperatly tried keeping him restrained, but it was no use...the Khaos Brigade betrayed him, even though he was a part of them and indirectly caused Yoru to break out. As the DxD Team and Qliphoth prepared to decide the fate of the universe once and for all, Yoru went straight into buisness- fouling and challenging the protagonist. Yoru and Issei fought in the usual DBZ fighting style with lots of kicks, fists, laughs, screams and petty dialogue and no actual conclusion to the fight. At one point during the fight, Issei even flashes in and out of existence to get help from the omnipotent creator of the omniverse(crazy, right?!) and at another, Yoru gets knocked down back at the Underworld. Yoru gets annihilated by the Solar Dragon Emperor and his soul manifests in Death's Domain, when logically, it should've went straight to Grannami-Izanami. The rest is not important, cuz he has zero importance afterwards, other than for the sake of character development. Oh wait...what's that? Yoru suddenly becomes less of an animal and more of a human, well god, with cognitive abilities? And he even feels very slight empathy all of a sudden? Oh...

So anyways, he gets revived to apperently help Issei for god-knows-what-reasons, when the guy has the freaking creator of everything on his side and numerious entities with infinite might, but whatever, Yoru was apperently crucial to Issei's plan to stop Indra's evil for good. Yay, but the plan goes to shit, when Indra pulls out an 'All-for-One' on the good guys and fucks everything up. He even absorbs Yoru, Vali and most of all-Wukong, that poor monkey...oh, and there were a bunch of cosmic monsters inside him, too. Thanks to Issei pulling an Exodia on the cliche 'I have the brillinat plan and there's no way it'd fail' villain, Yoru, as well as a thousand non-relative monsters, a classic Chinese mythological figure and the only important victim in the whole farce(our husbando Vali) are freed. Yoru is unconscious for a bit, then he wakes up, gets told he should be extremely grateful to his cousin, cuz power of sincerity and friendship will now dominate the world and finally, the classic Hermes shows up out of nowhere to deliver a message by Shiva...even though Shiva should have his own messengers in his own factions...so anyways. Yoru and pretty much everybody, excluding the main characters of course, get called into a meeting held by Shiva, who wants to bless Issei for his brave doings. Great, sweet...except a mighty cosmic troll comes down from the heavens, literally crushes Issei's dreams for peace and happiness, obliterates the Sun, does the classic thing a villain would do and threaten his family and tauning him long before actually doing anything and eventually even kills him.

Unfortunetely for the cosmic Micheal Jackson, the plot, the supernatural world and the readers want Issei alive, so he makes his return, angrier and more determined to destroy the First Troll then with any other foe. Their battle becomes a rehashed version of Asura vs Chakravartin, except it has black holes, dialogue and snarky remarks in it, plus the cosmic Micheal Jackson, becomes a discount Joffrey from space.

Since Yoru barely played any part in all of this and the majority of the spothlight was either on Goku-Ichigo(Issei) Hyoudou, AmenoJacksonushi and Vegetali Lucifer, its worthless to talk about the rest.

Now, the successor story of DxD: Rise of the Solar God, focuses on Yoru's life, four years after the battle between The Troll Master and the Paradoxical Protagonist Emperor.

Powers & Abilities
Yoru is blah blah the son of Tsukuyomi blah blah Moon powers something blah blah they boost his power, strength, agility, making him exponentially more BLAH BLAH! You know the drill. He's the son of one of the three sovereign deities in Shintoism, making him naturally stronger than most individuals from other races, like the obvious example that is always used- devils, fallen angels and angels. His deep connection with the Moon, makes Yoru basically both the same as and the opposite of Solar!Issei. Even without absorbing the Moon, he was able to easily knock down his father and destroyed a huge chunk of Tokyo. Fought on equal grounding to Issei even after the latter absorbed the entirety of the Sun into his being and prompt him to go even further beyond(see what I did here?). In conclusion, Yoru is a powerful deity, probably Ultimate-class or beyond, who matches Issei in nearly every aspect, and now they are even equal intelligence-wise.

Like Issei, due to the possibly infinite Moons that exist in the Universe, Yoru could constantly break his own limits.

Immense Strength- Matches Issei till he uses the mighty plot armor...jk, I mean the Kusanagi Scale Mail, which allows him to boost his power up. Shook the entire Solar System in his fight with Super Solar God Issei. Superior to his father and Amaterasu.

Immense Durability- Peered with his formidable strength, he has quite the durability levels. Shrugged off attacks by Issei, who at that point, is already an immortal-killer and a high god-class being(lul wut?). Took the combined powers of Issei's whole Solar energy, Ddraig's and the Orochi's power to destroy Yoru. Even then, his soul remained and he descended into Death's Domain.

Immense Speed- Around Issei's level. Has speed blitzed characters who are formidably fast in canon DxD.

Lunar Manipulation- Yoru, being a god of the moon and technically a living fragment of it, has utmost control over the Moon and its energies. He has been shown to produce vines made out of pure lunar energy as well as firing energy blasts of the same substance. He's also generally more powerful and fast when the moon is clear in the sky.

Solar Energy Supression- Like his father, Yoru should be able to manipulate the Moon into standing between the Earth and the Sun, therefore causing a Solar Eclipse. This would allow him to supress and greatly weaken a solar deity's physical attributes and magic power, thus giving him the greater edge over them. This ability is no longer useful against Issei, though.
