Character name: Koumyou Sanzo
Fandom: Saiyuki
Timeline: A few hours before his death
Age: 47
~*Magical*~ abilities and strengths: Koumyou has several abilities in canon that need to be touched upon.
Spiritual Power - In canon Koumyou has been regarded as one of the more powerful characters in series, even after his death. An important part of that strength lies in his spiritual power. Unlike most monks in the series Koumyou can channel his chi in various ways without the use of a focusing chant to help him along. This has allowed him to be faster in battle. His chi can be used in a great many ways, though his most common usage of his ability lies in sealing the movement of an individual. However, while he was still a trainee monk Koumyou demonstrated the ability to channel his chi to shape things in the world around him, creating a dragon out of water to attack an instructor and, with the help of the other trainees, a gigantic snowman to protect their group from an avalanche. Don’t ask; that’s just how he rolls.
Physical ability - Despite being in his fifties Koumyou is still quite strong physically, strong enough to grab Ken’yuu (who would later become Ukoku Sanzo) and stop him from attacking Goudai Sanzo. His grip left bruises on his arm from this action. Koumyou claims he doesn’t know his own strength, which might be a bluff. However what is clear is that Koumyou can hold his own in a fight even at his age.
Tenchi Kaigen Sutras - Koumyou has possession of two Tenchi kaigen sutras, which are holy scrolls said to have incredible powers. So far he has never been shown using their power, but it can be assumed that he knows exactly how to employ their powers. The two sutras in his possession are the Seiten Sutra and the Maten Sutra.
How would they use their abilities?: He’d use his abilities to defend himself and others, but never directly attack. In all his appearances Koumyou has never actually physically struck anyone.
Appearance: Koumyou doesn’t really look quite like the monk he ought to resemble with his long flowing grayish-blonde hair that’s pulled back into a braid. He has a gentle face that is most often seen smiling, in fact while he doesn’t have many wrinkles yet, though the ones he does have can be attributed to smiling. Most of the time his expression has his eyes almost shut, though during the moments when he does open them up he has blue eyes. Most importantly for recognizing his rank is the fact that Koumyou is marked with a red chakra upon his forehead signifying his closeness to the gods as a Sanzo priest.
As for clothing, Koumyou sticks with the traditional Sanzo uniform which consists of a long white robe tied over a black form fitting sleeveless shirt along with a pair of black arm coverings that reach his upper arms. Over the robe goes a gold colored metal chest guard. Depending on the formality of the event Koumyou might also wear a golden crown and a white head covering, though usually he doesn’t bother.
Background/Personality:
1. Ibun
Koumyou started out as a young man named Houmei, who was a part of the intensive training program meant to produce worthy candidates for the title of Sanzo. Houmei was, to put it kindly, a bit of a loser in the eyes of his fellow trainees. During his training Houmei was known as the Demerit Monk because he was always receiving punishments for slacking off or trying to find ways around the many tests. It was during this time training that Houmei met Toudai and a small demon named Genkai, the former would later become Goudai Sanzo and the latter would later be Tenkai Sanzo.
Houmei endured many grueling aptitude tests and got really banged up in the process, earning cuts and bruises all over his skinny ass body. Despite Houmei's reputation as a slacker and failure, he displayed an amazing proficiency for being able to channel his chi without using a mantra. This wouldn't be so odd except for the fact that doing such a thing requires an almost impossible amount of focus. However, despite bets being against Houmei he kept trooping through the exams. It's important to note that even at this point in his life that Houmei didn't have any particular prejudices against youkai, a fact that got him as well as all the other trainees in trouble when he sassed a particularly biased instructor.
Considering that Ibun hasn't yet finished I'll leave this chapter of his life closed with the note of that he DID become Koumyou Sanzo and at some point Tenkai (previously Genkai before he too became a Sanzo) died of unknown circumstances, leaving Koumyou with two things. His tenchi kaigen sutra and a prediction that he saw light in the future, a theme which is prevalent in Saiyuki. It's also important to note that Koumyou was at that the youngest man to ever achieve the title of Sanzo at 21.
2. Pre-Burial Years
Koumyou Sanzo did what every Sanzo did once they got their sutra. He wandered all over the place and eventually found a temple to settle into as his home. He occasionally went wandering as Sanzos were wont to do and did this for more than a decade. Then one day when he was 35 Koumyou heard a voice calling his name rather insistantly. (He later told Kohryuu that the voice was rather annoying so he had no choice to find out who it was) When he went in search he found a newborn baby boy in the Yangtze river and took him in, naming him Kohryuu as a little throwback to the river he found the child in. We'll call this beginning of the Stupid Daddy years of Koumyou's life.
He took Kohryuu back to his temple claiming he was going to raise the boy as his disciple. All this really did was make everyone think he was a pedo though, since Kohryuu grew up to be a precocious beautiful little blonde haired boy.
3. Burial
When Koumyou was 39 he got a rather odd request from his old friend Goudai Sanzo to visit him at Zenou temple and observe his students who were training to succeed Goudai as the next Sanzo priest and carry his sacred sutra. It was here that he met another important young man who was training for the opportunity to become the next Sanzo priest after Goudai. His name was Ken'yuu and he was a brilliant 17 year old who had already completed an advanced PHD program and had moved onto the training program of the temple.
Koumyou's first personal encounter with Ken'yuu with when they met and had a chat where Koumyou showed a certain unsettling tendency to bounce idiotic and being incredibly sharp. When Ken'yuu admitted that he entered the training to be Sanzo because he was bored and needed a challenge that was worthy of him. Koumyou commented that must mean that Ken'yuu is a boring person if he considers everything boring. But then he decided that he and Ken'yuu should go cook sweet potatos in raked up leaves so that moment ended pretty quick.
However, it was revealed soon after the reason why Koumyou had been called to Zenou temple. Goudai was sick and admitted that he was going to die. He wanted Koumyou to preside over the succession test and see how it all ended. When the dying priest named those qualifying, Ken'yuu wasn't among them despite his skill and prowess as the sacred arts. This bothers Ken'yuu so he attacks Goudai demanding why he was excluded. Naturally his teacher didn't take this amount of sass well and had him locked him up. Koumyou showed up at his jail cell that night and had a deep conversation with the youth and got to the source of his problem: Ken'yuu needed to be in a situation either where he 'ate or was eaten himself' in essence feeling the need to make every challenge life and death. Koumyou seemed to understand this line of thinking.
Anyways the next day came and it's revealed that Goudai intends for shit to get real. His successor was literally going to have to do it over his dead body. Either way, Koumyou watched as Ken'yuu appeared at the testing site (having busted the fuck out of jail) and proceeded to take down all the potential candidates before bloodily killing Goudai Sanzo. The 17 year old, having fulfilled the requirements of succession became a Sanzo priest, though the gods never blessed him with the red chakra. Covered in the blood of his teacher, Koumyou was sure that beneath it Ken'yuu was weeping. He took responsibility for the new young priest, giving him the name of Ukoku Sanzo. They traveled together for a year after that before Koumyou finally returned to Kinzan Temple, and more importantly to Kohryuu.
4. The Bet and the Events that Followed
After this, Koumyou stayed a little more stationary. Kinzan temple became his home temple where he raised and taught Kohryuu with the intention of having the young boy succeed him as guardian of his two sutras. And every so often the crickets around Kinzan temple would go silent just as Ukoku paid him a visit. It was during one of these visits when they were sitting alone together that Koumyou and Ukoku made 'The Bet'. The exact content of the bet is unknown, but I suspect it had to do with the game of Eat or Be Eaten that Ukoku still thrived on. Koumyou suggested the stakes be 'the next rising sun'.
Later, after The Bet was made and Kohryuu was 13 years old, Koumyou decided that it was time to confer the title of Sanzo upon his student. He called Kohryuu to him and named him Genjyo Sanzo. This would have been a proud moment if not for the fact that a band of youkai broke into the temple. Koumyou used a binding spell to keep Genjyo from moving, gave him the Maten sutra and then... let himself be murdered to protect his surrogate son. Which is where his story ends. Sort of.
5. Personality
Koumyou is a rather difficult man to describe. Perhaps Ken'yuu put it best when he said: “I can't tell if you're brilliant or retarded.” Koumyou tends to play the fool in most situations, he'll start a conversation with someone he hasn't seen in quite a while and then interrupt himself in the middle of it because he finally remembered to say “Long time no see”. He tends spend much of his time floating on the surface of a subject, making comments that make it seem like he either isn't paying much attention or just doesn't understand anything that's implied to be happening. However, beneath that occasionally dumb exterior are some sharp observations that can cut right to the heart of things. His insights are small and usually tend to linger after he's said it and has already moved onto a new subject.
As a priest and teacher, Koumyou doesn't seem to believe that he has any right to teach anyone anything or pass on 'wisdom'. He can be considered irresponsible and maybe a little worldly, but he seems to think that anything worth learning can be figured out on its own. Koumyou also seems to hold some contempt for priests who hide from the world and everything in it, having commented to Kohryuu once after turning down a request to stay at a particular temple that hiding away made them weak and blind.
He doesn't like to get dragged down by obligations to others because he does not wish to interfere with how things ought to be. He even extends this to witnessing events that would be painful for most other men to bear. He watches an old friend, Goudai Sanzo, get slaughtered right before his eyes by Ken'yuu and then goes on to travel with him without seeming to bear any grudge. This ties back to the one buddhist belief that Koumyou holds himself to. Muichimotsu, which means to hold nothing. He tries to live without attachment though he has obviously failed in some aspects considering his attachment and depth of affection for Kohryuu.
As a father figure, Koumyou seems to be the textbook description of a 'stupid parent'. He 's the type to happily dote on the boy and rather than teach him buddhist values he passes on certain attitudes about life. Of course part of this could just be Koumyou's own irresponsible attitude. He's something of an unconventional monk, having chosen not to shave his head and enjoying the pleasures of tobacco and alcohol (though it never seems to be in excess). He lives life and seems to enjoy teaching through this way.

1st person sample: [Video]
[The video turns on, on purpose for once and now... now you’re all victims of Old Man Cam. Koumyou is peering into the camera; only the feed is upside down.]
Is it on?
[He looks over his shoulder where there’s an appropriately annoyed looking younger alien who nods and moves on.]
It’s rather odd being told your planet for destroyed. I suppose I’ll have to give rites won’t I...
[He looks distracted for a moment, tapping his chin in thought before snapping out of it and then he claps his hands together, remembering something important.]
Oh yes! Has anyone seen my student? [And out comes the most derpy, dreamy papa smile ever.] He’s thirteen years old and his name is Kohryuu. He can be rather precocious but he’s quite adorable. [He starts rummaging inside his sleeves.]
I have a picture somewhere I’m sure... Ah!
[And he pulls the picture free victoriously and then knocks the guide over in the process, ending the feed.]
3rd person sample: It had taken some adjustment to get used to life on the Thor, but Koumyou had found himself adapting to the unusual way of life that existed for refugees. He'd found a job that paid for his needs plus a few small luxuries like pipe tobacco and sake of decent quality. He had a feeling this wasn't the place where his journey was meant to end. He didn't mourn the end of his world because he was destined to return there one day.
He hadn't found the paperwork foisted upon him upon arrival to be as much of a trial as others insisted it was. Much like the reading of sutras, allowing himself to focus on the task of writing out his information as best he knew it allowed him a chance to meditate upon his circumstances and consider what might have brought him to the ship rather than leaving him behind in Shangri-La. He hadn't found word of Kohryuu on the ship and while it did worry him but he decided that if his young student was meant to be at his side on the ship, he would arrive in his own good time.
He was sure that worrying over the boy would just annoy him anyways, he had always been precocious like that.
So for the moment he took enjoyment from small pleasures. Sitting in the park within the Thor with its simulated sunshine and garden arrangements made for a lovely afternoon of relaxation when he had a few bottles of sake, some snacks and a pile of origami paper to keep himself occupied. He'd speak with those who passed and occasionally share a drink with one who sat down and joined him in enjoying the day. And every so often, sailing across the expanse of the park to land in the dolphin pool.
