What is your age: 18 Years Old
Why are you applying to work at the Monastery:
This one has heard/read of the Kami that watch over the mortals of Karakura, Ones that have properly given themselves to the Kami have been blessed with the protection and the cleansing of the Divine for years. He wishes to be bestowed with a clean slate of his well being, For he has performed an act of sin that he believes will be nearly impossible to be forgiven. He had acted on revenge against the wickedness of two who had stolen the life of his father figure in front of him, Which he had scuffed the life from them as well. Now he wishes to be cleansed and protected from the miasma of karma herself. He has a fair share of experience with nature for he is a follower of Wicca culture, Undergoing enchantments of spells and rituals and viewing the divinity of life in every organism molded by the hands of the gods. Though if he is not suited for this he will only wish give his services to the Shrine, Cleaning, or even just being an assistant is well enough for this one. For he truly wishes to give himself and be forgiven for his red stained palms. (OOC: If you are confused this is just how he speaks.)
What history and information you know about the Shinsei Seinaru Monastery:
Shinsei Seinaru Monastery had been built on June 16th, 744. In the Nine century Buddhism and Shintoism combined themselves into a new religion called "Ryobu Shinto" But for Buddhism to be more familiar and well acquainted, Shinto was not an eye catching ideal towards those that studied it. It was hardly ever practiced or used since the start of Ryobu Shinto. In the eighteenth century Shintoism was resurrected because of it's ancient background through out history.
A thousand years later, in 2004 the Monastery was set ablaze by it's current head priest Kannushui Ginjiro. Ginjiro had believed that everyone is Karakura had fell into the culture of impurity and misdeeds, Giving up on the religion he made the Monastery unworthy of the god's visits or even allowing of their divine presence. All buildings of the Monastery were torn and turned to ash except one, The shrine originally constructed for the Yama-No-Kami which stands at the highest of all of the shrines to this day.
All of the god's had fled from the Monastery after it's flaming demise, But only one had returned due to his/her's irritation of loneliness. The god was rumored to hold such a bitter grudge and distaste of the Shrine being burnt down, They unleashed countless storms and hasty weather's.
Tell us about yourself:
This one was simply an orphan who unfortunately had no future ahead of his severed path from fate until he was adopted by a man who had been accustomed to Wicca religion, This one had spent 17 years of his life gaining a connection with nature's green and rocks. He had just started his journey on "School" after being motivated by his dear friend Ava Hanasaki to grow more closer to his own kind. Humans. He is 18 years of age and he is vegetarian as well. Though not vegan, he still see's value and beauty throughout the lives of organism's. He also takes a liking to poetry, and occasionally creates quick haiku's for specific situations! He is also socially awkward, But he is working on it!
