SUMMARY

Dr. Akira Takahashi is the youkai world's foremost expert on modern medicine, especially as it applies to youkai and their unique bodies. Running multiple hospitals across Japan, just about every youkai alive has been treated by him at some point, and he's become a household name associated with innovation and healing.

The people in his day-to-day life associate him a little more with chaos.

Knowledge and innovation are Akira's main passion in life, so much so that he regularly forgets or doesn't understand where most "normal" people's priorities lie. When he senses something new and interesting to be learned he chases after it with manic fervor until he gets what he wants or he's distracted by something just as interesting. It's a predictable enough pattern, but difficult to stop once it gets rolling, so most who know him prefer to just step cautiously instead.

But he would never hurt anyone on purpose, right? ...Right?


Spoilers beyond this point.



ABILITIES

Dodomeki -
As a dodomeki, Akira can create functional eyes anywhere on himself or anyone/anything he's touched, up to 500 meters away from his current location. Some of these eyes can see spiritual energy; his main eyes (the ones on his face) cannot. If putting an eye on a person or living thing, he also has access to their other senses so long as that eye is active. (Hearing, smell, etc) People/Places touched by someone with at least one eye on them seems to count as him touching these people/places.

He can share what he's seeing with anyone nearby so long as they keep their eyes closed. If they're opened, he has to manually reestablish the connection.

Eyes can also pop out along his body when under great stress, like when he's excited.

Oni -
As a type of oni, Akira has immense physical strength. He also regularly exercises this strength, via holding down and subduing unruly patients as he puts it, so he could be considered slightly stronger than the default of his species.

Youkai form -
Akira is able to switch between his natural dodomeki shape and his human shape at will, or when his spiritual energy gets too low.

(Purely as a headcanon, in youkai form all senses other than sight are dampened.)

Medical Savant -
Akira is studied in many, many areas of medicine. "Internal medicine, surgical, pediatrics, gynaecology, etc etc" are the ones canonically listed. He's also shown to be able to accurately gauge a patient's temperature with only skin contact, and a patient's weight only by lifting them, down to the decimal point.

(For balance's sake and because the player feels it makes sense for the character, he will be played as having trouble with the fields of psychology/psychiatry.)
