"Shinuhime... Let us reap the souls of the damned.."

Something dark from me this time.

It's my slightly new character who is a Uteinue Reaper, of a royal blood line. Within his scythe his has two summons, which is quite rare.

Male Uteinue Reapers only have one summon in their scythes, for males their summons would be female. Kalin has a female summon, he calls her Shinuhime sadly she is not shown here. But he also has a male summon, the name is not specified though, so he is unnamed. Male Reapers aren't supposed to have male summons either, how he got two summons is unknown and Female Uteinue Reapers have male summons.

He doesn't trust so easily, but when annoyed to a certain point he'll end up reaping a soul and tormenting it to those he feels deserves the karma. Shinuhime tries to keep him under control though. Kalin doesn't mind getting dirty, sometimes he'll take off his long sleeves when necessary to him... But what is under them?

Kalin looks after his scythe with his life, always cleaning it if it is tainted with blood. Kalin isn't innocent though, he has such a dark past, that he'd rather not talk about it. Although he is very well spoken. He is capable of anything.

I’m simply amazed by what you have done here, it’s one of your finest arts yet! To start with the character: Kalin looks quite serious and somewhat kind so I can see in his facial expression. His clothing looks quite important, as if he has some sort of post or rank. His scythe also shows a high level of importance, not to mention the red ribbon wrapped around the pole. It looks quite royal, like some sort of royal bloodline. Coming back to the scythe; so seemingly regal, due to it’s design, shape and size. The colour makes it look quite cold and deadly, you can easily tell it has a rather acute edge. I’m also liking the textures you have used, you’re always so outgoing with them and you always know when to use it and where. You have made great improvement, that’s what I like to see from you and everyone else. Keep it up Rai~

Ooh, another after submitting the comment on your other work~
The scythe...is kickass :heart: Love the design of it so much <333 I'd so hate getting jabbed by the curve on it D: Definitely tear someone apart with that e_e
And the sleeves! The floral bits are somewhat oriental to me. :heart:The eyes come out well here too, against the darkness of the picture, I think it complements the hair well :3
Red ribbon~ Suiting colour too, sort of indicates violence with the colour, but it isn't harsh or anything, because it's a soft wavy ribbon X3 Makes it more regal instead, esp. since he's got a bit of it around his torso under his main outfit. :heart:
Like your background stuff for the Uteinue Reapers too, never thought of a Scythe that contains a summon in it :heart:
Awesome job as per usual Kaori-sama. ^^ :heart:
Oh snapz me and Sakeiru both said Regal in their comment. XDDDDDD

*Fan girl cry* Wee!! You finally completed his desgin! So, you're going to stick with this one? You mentioned that you might give him a few changes here and there~Oh ma gosh, the colouring again, I love how you created the mystical aura...So dark and gloomy. His hair, Eeee, he must use Loriel or something. Soo...Smooth...

The stained glass window in the background too, I sees it, Kalin's in a chruch or something? Kiya-Chan likes those =3 Nyaa, I like his outfit. One thing I will say, hope yo won't be offened, is the top of the pole section of the scythe, I dunno, it seems a little rectangluar? But, other than that, it's a fab picture! The desgin itself, is really fancy...Real shiny. :heart: omg spelling errorrssss.... -dies-
:iconupriseofouterheaven:
I really love the reflective parts of the metal- it's a really nice effect. wonderful design as well :D

8D Woah, this is awesome Kaori! *__*
I love this guy~ Especially his kickass story, I feel so bad for the poor guy.. and yet in awe of his incredible bishieness. ;'D :heart: -SHOT-
I especially love that scythe of his~:heart: It's so cool, I love all the detail you put into it, all those different strands of metal~ If that makes any sense. x3 This guy's very dark, too, which is awesome since your dark characters awesome too. X3 <33
I really love the clothing design on Kalin's sleeves, too! I like how they're tattered, and also how they fade into blue~ ahh, his whole design is so AWESOME! *-* :heart:
Not to mention he's gorgeous! You're so good at guys, I envy you. X3
Anyway, another lovely job Kaori, I adore this. :heart: X3 I can't wait to see more! >w<

(I'm so sorry this comment isn't longer, my wrist is killing me ;-; </3)

to being an us for once, instead of a them . . . la vie boheme !! <3
:iconraisaitsu:
Hahah.. I wouldn't say that~

Kalin is serious though, if he's alone or in a certain situation he doesn't like. But he can be kind as well, so you've got that right.
Keh.. His clothing took me forever to think up too, I'll probably stick with this though, since my brain my implode on me trying to design another one.

His scythe does have a high level of importance, having two summons isn't common with the Uteinue Reapers, I think Kalin is lucky. Who knows. He does come from a royal bloodline, that's what Uteinue Reapers are. But there's certain ranks I think.

Thank you very much~
