"Remember well, we share a mind, a body, and an existence. But this is my body. Even if my strength speed and powers originated from you. Even if I would have been a normal human if I hadn’t met you. I am Blane Blaze, and I am not just a body for you all to inhabit. Because Blane Blaze is the name of the strongest swordsman.”- Blane to his past selves."

Summary
Blane Blaze is a character in the VSBW RP Reincarnation Wars. Blane was born in New York City on the Earth featured in Everybody Wants to Rule the World’s second timeline. However, he disappeared several years prior to the series, when he was summoned by Kuro and Kura to help fight the Supreme Darkness.

Blane is the successor to Blaze style swordsmanship. Though he doesn’t compete in competitions, he regularly spars with and can defeat world champions and experts in Fencing, Kendo, HEMA, and many lesser known forms of swordplay. Among those who knew of him, he was considered the greatest swordsman in the world.

Personality
Though Blane is able to get along with others well, he often acts quite aloof, preferring to practice his swordsmanship over interacting with others. He has an obsession with swords and swordsmanship that was inherited from his parents, and focuses almost all his free time, and even time that shouldn’t have been free into that. However, he will still move to help those in need whenever he sees people in trouble. Reflecting this, he is often careful in watching his surroundings, showing a deceptively perceptive side, and will make moves he thinks are in the best interest of those involved. He is one of the few members of the party whose personality and thoughts have been unaffected by the influence of his past lives, ignoring or suppressing them altogether.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Blaze Style Swordsmanship

Blaze Style Swordsmanship is an advanced combat style created by Blane’s parents. Its creation involved the study of every known form of swordsmanship on Earth, from the common sports such as fencing, kendo, and HEMA to forms found in obscure regions and tribes, even to those displayed in ancient manuscripts and paintings. They used this research to develop a perfect swordsmanship, that can adapt to any weapon and opponent, controlling the battle. Blane would eventually further this by creating new forms and techniques, and even attempting to replicate fictional swordsmanship in real life, though the latter had very limited success.


 * Fundamentals: The core principle of Blaze Style breaks up all techniques into two pieces: the concept and the application. The concept refers to the mechanics and purpose of a technique, while the application is the way in which it’s executed. If you thoroughly understand the concept of a technique, it becomes possible to modify and recreate it in any position, against any opponent, and using almost any weapon, though the effectiveness may vary. This allows for a highly adaptive style where the user can almost always achieve their goal for a strike.


 * Body Reading: Blane uses a mixture of techniques from athletes, martial artists, fortune tellers, scam artists and the like to read the intentional and unintentional body language cues of an opponent and notice even small attack wind ups. With this he can predict an opponent’s attack beforehand.


 * Enemy Control: Using his own body language and control of space and pace in a fight, Blane coaxes the opponent into making specific moves, making it easy to dodge, counter, or corner the opponent.


 * Sword Throwing: Through examination of different forms of throwing weapons and techniques, Blaze style developed techniques to effectively use most types of swords as throwing weapons.


 * Acrobatics: Blane can use a wide variety of free running, parkour, and other acrobatic techniques, improving his ability to evade attacks and maneuver the battlefield. Even in seemingly awkward and difficult positions he’s capable of striking the opponent.
