he wears a black Leather coat which goes down to his knees like a robe, the color is also high to cover up near his chin though he allways keeps the front open.
HistoryIshura was born on birdman island in the grandline, which is said be be around the southern edge of the grandline with it being a land of mountains, bottomless gourges, and it is by far a ancient and still warzone. He was born into a clan of Bat-Birdmen, and from the day that he hatched from his egg he was enbraced and braught into a world of clan warfare which each differnt species of birdman fought the others for Honor and hunting grounds. One of his first memories is that of being pushed off of the side of his clans cage, for in this world it was eather survive or die and those who could not fly would do nothing but weight down the clan as a whole. He like many others susceeded and officially were no longer burdens to the clan though thier journy was just beginning.
From a early age he was taught the ways of the warrior birds, to other races they were a primitive species yet they were capable of living in the places that no human could and they trived there. The Birdmen were capable of holding clan wars for hundreds of years mearly because they gave birth to large numbers and had no natural predators, even humans were scared to come within thier domain and the ones that do find themselves being feed to the young. From a early age Ishura was found to be quite adept in nearly any kind of fighting and quickly grew a strong honor and reputation among his own and even more of thier rival clans. By the time that he reached the age of 15 he was considered to be the most likey to be the alpha male within the Murciélago clan. Every so often a Human vescle would show up near thieir domain which they were only spared when they layed down thier arms and bowed before them, every so often they would need to traverse near thier domain and in order to avoid being attacked they gave gifts to the birdmen such as human fighting knowlege or large stores of food, and they would not be harmed by that clan for a month. When Ishura turned the age of 17 he ascended within the Murciélago when he defeated the previous Alpha in his clan in a Death Match, and to prove it he devoured his kill and was named the alpha male of the Murciélago. And his brothers and sisters were glad that he did so in the comming months for something dark was comming over the lands, something that was differnt from the normal other birdmen attacks. Something darker as if someone was manipulating from the shadows.
In the comming months the other bird clans grew more aggresive, attacking more often and sacrificing more numbers than they ever did in the past, some of them now even weielding human guns. Something of which they though of a cheap honorless weapons, even with them it was rare for them to ever hit a Birdman. It soon became to obvious that something was chaning in their lands, wile on a scouting mission Ishura discovered a human vessel on the one of the sides of the island. Even more so it was docked under one of their rivals main nests, only implying that thier long rivals have been working with humans for some reason. The reason why the Murciélago were feared among the Birdmen is that they were the only warrior bird race that were night hunters, after bringing 4 of his best scouts and warriors they infiltrated thier enemies territory and discovered them to be working with the humans. Apparently the humans leaders discovered that to safley traverse the region they payed tribute to what they called a 'Primitave Race' and so they decided to wipe them out. To do this they decided to inside Clan wars by helping a single Weaker clan gain power and wipe out the others, and then leave the near destroyed race. One of the humans showed the Alpha of their rival clan a strange fruit, saying that it would give him strength to defeat thier most hated rivals... the Murciélago for apparently this fruit possesed all of the abilities of the Murciélago. Ishura knew that he needed to take that fruit, and in a swift move himself and his 4 warriors suddenly appeared in between the marines and bird men killing many of both sides easily and the marines tried to flee wile the Murciélago warriors fought the other bird men. After killing thier Alpha easily he looked out to the sea to see the marines trying to flee, though even their ships were no match for a Murciélago in speed. Ishura suddenly appearing on the deck of the ship and where he landed the wood broke easily as he slaughtered marine after marine and then took down the Captain of the ship. He discovered the strange fruit and curious he ate it himself, though nothing happened other than a horrible taste. Eventually he discovered that he was now far stronger than he ever was and he could now somehow shapeshift his form.
Knowing that the Marines were thier enemies the Murciélago and a few other Birdmen who shared thier feelings took the marine ship as thier own and took on a pirate flag, not only to exact revenge but to also protect thier homeland from the humans. Though even he soon discovered that the humans were not as weak as they thought, not only did they have to fight maries but other pirates as well, though they had many advantages on thier side that humans did not. Though after years of being pirates most of his crewmeembers eather died or returned to thier homeland eventaully leaving only Ishura himself
PersonalityHe is a very cold, callous, dispassionate figure, and is rather aloof, brooding, and indifferent, willing to harm both his comrades and enemies should they ever get in his way. This is mostly because he himself does not tend to bond with humans and looks down upon the race as a whole. His cold demeanor allows him to stay completely calm and in control in most situations, and he is not easily surprised or caught off-guard. He refers to anyone he does not find interesting as "trash" and treats them as expendable. Despite this he is not particularly violent and will only fight when provoked or ordered. He was taught from a young age to sees himself mearly as a tool or a weapon of war, as such he sees everyone around him mutch of the same.
Ishura is also highly perceptive, cunning, and analytical. He is also very demanding of others, believing that everyone has a duty in life and those that do not do so are worthless trash. This when combined with his cold demeanor allows him to be fully capable of committing truly abhorrent and inhumane actions without feeling any shred of remorse or hesitation, expecially twards humans who he personally cares little for. Because of these traits could be refered to by a superior as the perfect soldier. Though despite this he dose have his small moments of defiance to orders when persuing his own personal interests in someone, he tends to try to draw out someones full power to see what they are like at full strength. As he Looks down upon humans he will rarley ever allow them to see anything other than his Near-human form making it near unknown that he isnt even human at all.
Despite everything it comes clear that Ishura follows a strict code of honor, for he will never harm 'The Blissfull' which are in sence the innocent and bystanders, the every day citizen for they are nto truely involved. As such he will only attack other pirates and marines. He also will not fight a alraedy injured opponent for he wasnts to be on the same level of them when he destroys them. He will also rarley ever switch out of his near-human form, not because to be more human like rather for its his weakest form and he will only switch to another if he finds someone he considers worth for him to fight full forced. He has also shown a kinder/wise side every so often, often saying something small but yet has such a deep meaning to it it surprises those around him. Though as long as they follow his code of honor in battles themselves to him there are no true rules, no codes of contact, a Win is a win, and to lose is to lose.

Abilities
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Special AbilitiesBirdman: BatBirdman are said to be the opposite of Fishmen, Birdman are said to be stronger and nearly 10 times faster than humans and magnified when flying. They all possess wings though thier full capabilities depend on thier specific species heratage. Being a Bat Birdman he has the ability to see though echo vision, enhanced hearing, as well as a higher agility compared to other birdmen. Even before he ate his devil fruit he easily possessed super-human speed, strength, agility and endurence due to his natural heratage. After eating his DF they were amplified. He also possess a ability that is considered dark even by the Birdmen known as the Blood Rite, for if gravely injured the Bat Birdmen are able to regrow lost body by feeding on large amounts of fresh blood.
Tori Tori no MiIshura is somewhat of a anonomly within the Zoan users of the world, for he is one of the few that can
be called Enlightned. Similiar if a human ate the Hito Hito no Mi (Human Human Fruit), though instead being a Birdman and eating the Tori Tori no Mi he became Enlightned, making all of his forms and himself stronger than if any other species ate the same fruit. His echo location is far stronger than normal because of the combined abilities of his heratige and the Tori Tori Fruit giving him a longer range. He Possesses a near-Human/Birdman form which makes him look near human other than having claw like fingers that are harder than any steel, some facial features such as pointed teeth or fangs and he can also shift his currenly hidden large Black Wings if his opponent proves to be interesting or strong which gives him a boost in many physical fields. His Hybrid form has him possesing large black wings claw like hands and talons for feet as well as growing longer thicker hair as well on his back like fur, his arms and legs become covered in black fur, possessing a thin yet powerful tail that can be a weapon of its own, as well as his entire appearence becomes darker, increasing his strength, speed, agility, and endurence because of the combined abilities he can fly at super-sonic speeds. And his Full form he takes on the apperence of a giant Demonic looking Bat which is when he is his fastest and possibly most deadly in some situations,
[list][*]'Huelga de la luna surgiendo' (Strike of the Sprining Moon')
Ishura holds his Claws in a striking stance and consididering in what form he is in (Varies in speed and power) he lungest at the target which carries both the wave of wind and sound that he produces durring it creating a powerful piercing attack.
Sound ManipulationHe also possess a strand of abilities that only he can use which come from the natural abilities of the bat on using sound, allowing him to actually capable of manipulating sound into a powerful weapon to a point for normally bats use sound for echo location, though with the combined abilities of his Heratage and his DF they gratly amplified so that he can create louder and different frequenceis of sound. By resonating the sound though his body and into his sword he is capable of vibrating the molucules on his claws at ultra-high-frequencies which when they hit something they losen the molucules its slicing though making it mutch easier to cut. He can also make certain frequencies though his mouth or blade that can affect the inner ear directly so even if he misses it will send sound waves that disrupt the inner ear in this manner, the target loses their sense of balance and will likely vomit.
- Gritar (Screech)
By sending sound vibrations to his fingertips he is able to condence large amounts of sound energy into it and can then release it in a blast which can destroy stone
Learned TechniquesRokushikiBeing quite adept in Hand to hand (Is prefered method of fighting) is due to learning Rokushiki at a young age from a group of marines and negotiators from the world government who taught many of the warrior birdmen this fighting form to gain thier trust. He prefers using his hands over the sword maily because he grew up learning hand to hand combat, once he ate his devil fruit and couls shapeshift his wings away when wanted he still has a "Off-the-ground" method of combat, often being seen attacking opponents from aerial standpoints.
