the sound of metal clacking on wood could be herd as a man walked out of a hollow tree, over his heart bound in a mixture of wood and metal was a jet black stone shiny in appearance. his attire was ragged beyond repair and was pointless for him to be wearing his hair was long and his beard was frosted over as he looked around at a camp full of rouges of every kind from humaniod to beasts to even a few scarred up dragons. tokara was admits them as if invisible to their detection he moved up to a small stream his right hand freezing the water to shape a cup for himself to drink from. pullking some smoked meat from a small pouch on his hip and begins to eat it as a morning breakfast. the large man sat by the river minding his own and the band of outlaw and exiled paid him no mind. soon he would be on his way once again. it was only by chance he ran in to them a long time ago and was able to blend in shortly as if he was one of them. his memory was faded trying to remember what had happened to him before he joined them was rough. nothing was clear to him.

Had not a small intentional rustling in the underbrush given her away, Izune would have been able to slip through the area completely unnoticed. As it was the yokai wanted to be noticed, and had chosen to subtly announce her presence before appearing in the same form Tokara had seen her last, Leaning against a tree on the other side of the water.
"so you ended up in this neck of the woods. Nice company you've got." Her greeting was sarcastic. She knew this troupe were the sort whom Business Lords of various districts had ordered killed on sight, who had broken some vital beast-law of their race, or who even some of the gods might seem to shun in their violation of some sacred rule. Izune was not one of these in the proper sense. No one put up wanted posters for her, but she certainly didn't mind having 'friends' of those who put themselves so far outside the law such as this Tokara who certainly looked as though he had seen better days.

the lumbering giant looked up sipping the ice water from his cup. the look on his face was one of anger yet that could be becuase he always looked angry. "you found me that intresting... not that i was trying to hide." he licked his upper lip was a spear formed in his hand with the cup and he lunged it into the water the tip froze a fish in ice. it was small but it was still a early morning meal. he was defantly not having a issue with his magic no more. but the jewel on his chest would give off a hideous vibe to those with strong magical strengths. "so you going to stand there or we going to continue where we left off?" Tokara remembered that day well... but that's all he could remember. he form another spear and froze another fish the same way he was fishing as well as drinking from the water.

"I find lots of people interesting. We'll continue in good time. I'm in no rush." The bakeneko had plenty of time to get things done when she felt like it. "Besides, you've obviously seen better days. Been having a tough time?" Izune teased as she jumped over the water to his side. He was clearly not upkeeping his appearance or gear much
His attire didn't bother her. Her own wasn't rags like his, but that was more because it was useful to be properly dressed when keeping company with human-kinds. Why he bothered to set a gem when he clearly lacked proper clothes was a puzzle. Her youki was different than 'magic' so she felt nothing from it.

Tokara looked at her and in a mere moment his body was coated in a glass like shell of thick ice water from the air and rivere had been drawn in to make it. "no but a good battle tactic is to make one look weak and feeble." the shell of ice armor gave off a cool breeze to the humid warm morning air of this dense forest. the armor looked functional and covered his whole body. "honestly I don't remember much after the day we met... don't even remember how long I've been out here for. Fish?" he held up one of the frozen fish to her as the ice was melting off. he flt his beard and felt out long it was and his hair. "I need a good sharp knife and a mirror... not some things these rouges don't carry. noticed allot of them are afraid to pick up a weapon..." there was one large spot on his armor that was bare, it was where the jewel was set over his heart. he played with the 5 inch long facial fuzz his hand disappearing in to it with the sounds of scratching.

"Looking weaker than you are, and looking like a beggar are two different things." Izune pointed out. The latter was more undesirable should one want to move around in human societies. "Bet you picked a fight and forgot stuff after getting knocked around a bit." It was possible, knowing Tokara. One reckless head injury could be enough to cause a few memory problems. "You've been off the map for several months." The rogues might be able to tell more, if there was need to trace back the story of what had happened to the man.
There was a soft thud as the bakeneko tossed a knife point first into the ground between Tokara's feet. There was nothing fancy about the blade, though it was double edged and not a common kitchen knife. "Keep the fish." She'd caught her own food earlier. "By the looks of it, you can make your own mirror. These folks, you get the right weapon into their hands and prod them just right, and you'll see an interesting side of them. As you said, looks can be deceiving." These others were rogues for a reason after all. It probably wasn't just cause of some desire for adventure. They had to be hardy.

"Hah you're clever you are.. So how's the city last I saw you you had my sapphire I gave you." He formed a mirror with his ice and cut away some of his beard to make himself more presentable. Mean while the gem on his chest glowed with a spectral power as he used his magic. He looked at her in the mirror as he trimmed up. "How old are you." He voice was gruff like friends talking.

"That city has a way of holding up." Izune noted casually. That place might be a logistical nightmare, but somehow it remained magically stable enough to recover from even a blizzard like Tokara. She wasn't going to explain what she was planning to do with the stone, but it would go to good use in the end.
"guess" Izune challenged at the simple question of her age. Most humans would peg her as being between 13-16 on the natural lifespan by appearance, maybe older if they got to know her. Izune was quite willing to let others assume her age, and believe she was whatever they thought she was.
At least till she commented something that hinted at how old she actually was.

"I'd say around 200-300 years old." he said carefully trimming his beard down to a much more cleaner look turning the mirror to her. "few are able to stand near me let alone go toe to toe with me." standing up he hand her the knife back his long hair almost blending with his beard to make him have almost a lions mane like appearance. he gave the knife a toss to her in a manner easy for any one to catch with good hand cordnation. fiddling with his hair placing it in a long pony tail to hold it behind his head and out of the way. for now he looked at the gem on his chest taping it with a finger. "well now you going to guess my age or you going to keep playing games for now." the gem glowed as tokara took a kneel and a blast of magic came out of no where from within the groups of rouges. there was some one just learning magic in a manner best probly learn in a school. "looks like the little ones are at it again... if i was you i would take a knee they tend to get wild." tokara noticed a burning smell as part of his pony tail was gone and burned. he looked at it with a raised brow.

"Good guess." The yokai praised, not planning on providing the exact number.
She caught her knife by the blade in such a way that she did not cut herself, and concealed it from where it had been hidden. It didn't look like there were any places to actually store a knife on her person. She had no desire to guess his age aloud. She had an educated guess on what to expect, but otherwise felt no need to know.
Izune's eyes followed the gem, and then the heated elemental magic that followed.
Without comment on his not of having inexperienced potent magic users in the group, she reproduced and offered back the blade. "Just fix the mess you've got in your hair." she ordered, practically. She wasn't worried about the chance of any more projectiles coming her way.
