The truth behind certain NPCs
Sentai

Sentai's personality and phobia currently have him in a bind -- he's horribly afraid of dying, yet his temperment doesn't let him comfortably stay in one place for long. So far, his phobia's winning and keeping him in the Jinja that's both his prison and his protection from Secret Blade. The majority of Sentai's problems doesn't come from the amount he has said about Secret Blade, it's that they don't know how much he has or hasn't said. Sentai still has a number of secrets regarding his organization he's been hiding until he thinks it's a good time to tell 'em and curry favour. He knows all the names and abilities of Secret Blade higher ups, though he doesn't know either Seraphim personally and hasn't heard of Whisper (he's not powerful enough).

Sentai is evil. He may be trapped with a bunch of goody-goodies in a temple and be doing his darnest to help 'em, but he's doing it 'cause he wants to survive the nastiness as it's going down, not for the sake of spreading holyness and light. Sentai doesn't give a damn the Sensei was assassinated except that it put him into more danger. He was perfectly willing to string children up in tubes and drain their energy until they died, though he's not quite stupid enough to admit to the PCs they would have died, and he would do it again if he thought it'd get him somewhere. He is not only evil, he is perminantly irritated, moody, hormonal, and attempting to go on a twelve-year bender if possible. And he loathes, in the following order, 1)Touma, 2)Water, and 3) Goody-goods, or people who think he'll like 'em after they've done something to him.

Unforunately, he can't remember his past before he joined Secret Blade, but he knows he's at least 10,000 years old. This gives him a slightly better view of age than anyone else in the group -- yes, according to what people SEE, having sex with Yuuhi is like pedophilia, but from his point of view, the only people he can have sex with who aren't demons like him will be at LEAST 9,000 years younger than him. Plus Yuuhi's 58, and Sentai knows it. Why? He asked. Sentai's kinda blunt. One thing Sentai won't do is rape -- he doesn't feel he has to. He knows he has power, and he believes, not necessarily correctly, that he can seduce people into his bed without having to force 'em.

Sentai doesn't exactly love Yuuhi. Sentai doesn't know the meaning of that. But he feels more for Yuuhi than he does anyone else he knows, and would actually probably protect 'the kid' (as he calls Yuuhi) at the risk of his own life. He has also, recently, found out how to get Yuuhi high (as in drink/drug though without negative side effects so far) with demon's blood and is having a lot of fun with that. Sentai keeps a diary in his own language where he writes all his complaints.

Stalked by the one extremely powerful Element Demon who isn't in Secret Blade, Sentai loathes Eurie at least partially because she's more powerful than him and he likes to be in control. That and she's a complete airhead and he's got no patience whatsoever, let alone for ditzy laughing and whining.

Sentai is most drawn to Ranith of the group because she wasn't there when he was captured, and because she sent Yuuhi to him. (Admittedly, it was on an errand with some booze, but he pretended not to know that, and so did Yuuhi, and only a few holes were punched in walls as a result). Plus they're in a similar situation -- two not-nice people stuck being part of the goodygoodies. The others he'd cheerfully slaughter if they weren't, for a reason completely incomprehensible to him, protecting him.
