Hyabu Takamashi is my OC within the Demon Slayer universe.

Takamashi mastered the Flame breathing, and Sun breathing forms, during his ascension of the ranks, reaching, and stopping at Kinoe. While he has the potential to become a Hashira, he has yet to come face to face with one of the 12 Kizuki, and would most definitely fall in single combat to at of the upper 6. Even with this, he'd have a good chance of taking down any of the lower 6 without dying, and, has the power to take down the lower most ranks of the upper 6, at the cost of his own life. He, like Tanjiro, had a younger sibling be turned into a demon, however, unlike Tanjiro, he fought his younger brother, Hisoka Takamashi, striking him down multiple times, and nearly dying in the process, before a demon slayer finally came, and beheaded the boy. With great grief in his heart for the loss of his family, and his brother being turned against him, he began training under a Hinoto, Mokoyo Kazuhiro, who taught him Flame breathing. After nearly 3 years of traning, Mommy I agreed to send him to final selection, if he could only land one strike on her, with the practice swords she's used to train him, and, she warned that she would not go easy on him. After this agreement, he spent another year and a half, fighting her every day, and improving his technique, until, one day, he finally made contact with her stomach, but not before taking quite a beating, himself. After this, he was allowed to recover, until final selection, at which point, he was sent a long distance to reach final selection. At final selection, he'd nearly died once, only surviving, because he'd not gone in alone, he did, however, come out alone, despite his best efforts. On the day he got his sword, he'd picked it up, hoping for a green blade, but still satisfied with his black blade. He was then sent on mission after mission, refusing to stop and rest, unless he'd been injured before. Slowly his demon kill count rose, as his technique became better and better. Along the way, he made a friend, Emiko family. , and they became inseparable, climbing the ranks together, and beginning to see each other as more than just friends. When Hyabu reached the rank of Tsushinoe he, and Emiko were sent after a group of demons, living deep within a cave, and killing young children in a town nearby. There, Hyabu, and Emiko began to rip and tear at the demons, taking them out quickly, and efficiently, until the 2 of them got separated, and demon in charge came out, and, after a long fight, struck Emiko with a fatal wound. Hyabu found her much too late, discovering only a corpse, and a demon. He was overcome with an extreme rage, and began unleashing every flame breathing move he'd learned on the demon, his blinding rage making him careless enough, that not a single strike landed, until the demon got too confident, and went in for a blow, at which point, Hyabu stopped using total concentration breathing, and just slammed the sword into the demons neck, severing it from the shoulders, and turning the demon to dust. Afterwards, he'd buried Emiko, and gone to find the remainder of the demons in the cave, though they'd all fled after he killed their leader. When he finally accepted that the demons were gone, and the town was safe, he left, and began looking for a sun breathing master. When he found one, he trained under this master for another year, learning Sun breathing, as well as reading more on the other breathing forms. Eventually, he became determined to master all the base breathing forms, though he'd never managed to master more than 2, or even learned another form. He began more rigorous training, and ascended the ranks to Kinoe, before stopping all together.

Hyabu is smart, though he's also extremely hot headed, and intense, and has little kindness in his heart. He's gotten close to killing humans many times, when they get in the way, but never truly harms them. After every mission, he leaves a flower, like the ones Emiko would wear in her hair, on the demons ashes, to honor Emiko, who'd do the same to any demon she'd kill, exclaiming that "they didn't choose to become a demon" when Hyabu asked why she did that.

Ladies and gentlemen, Hyabu Takamashi
