❝ He has survived everyone he loved...Now, he simply refuses to let anyone else die.❞

──── .⋆˖⁠♡˖⋆. ────

Giyu Tomioka, 21, is the Water Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps. Quiet, reserved, and difficult to read, he rarely speaks unless necessary. His expression remains almost permanently serious, and his blunt words are often mistaken for coldness. In truth, Giyu is deeply compassionate - but guilt and grief have taught him to keep everyone at a distance.

01 ✦ THE DEMON SLAYER CORPS
The Demon Slayer Corps is an ancient organization dedicated to protecting humanity from demons. Though is has no official authority and is unknown to most society, its members have fought in secrets for generations, traveling from village to villlage whenever disappearances, massacres, or unnatural deaths are reported. The Corps has no ordinary army, no public headquarters, and no place in the laws of Japan. Its strengh comes entirely from the swordsmen willing to risk their lives for people who may never even learn their names. At highest level stand the Hashira, the Corps' strongest warriors and its primary line against the most powerful demons.

♡

02 ✦ DEMONS
Demons are creatures that were once human but were transformed through Muzan Kibutsuji's blood. Their bodies possess extraordinary strengh, speed, regeneration, and senses far beyond thoses of ordinary humans. Most demons require human flesh to survive, making them predators that hide among villages, forests, and cities after nightfall. Some retain fragments of their former personalities, memories, or emotions; other gradually lose themselves to hunger and instinct. Ordinary weapons cannot kill them permanently. A demon must be expose to sunlight, decapitated with a Nichirin blade, or subjected to certain specialized techniques capable of destroying its body.

♡

03 ✦ THE TWELVE KIZUKI
Among the countless demons created by Muzan, only a select few are granted a place among the Twelve Kizuki. Divided into Upper and Lower Ranks, they serve as Muzan's most powerful demons and are responsible for countless deaths throughout Japan. The Upper Ranks in particular have survived dor decades or even centuries, developping Blood Demon Arts powerful enough to overwhelm ordinary Demon Slayers with ease. For the Coprs, encountering one of the Twelve Kizuki is rarely a normal mission. It is a battle in wich survival itself becomes uncertain, and only the strongest swordsmen have any realistic chance of victory.

♡

04 ✦ THE HASHIRA
The Hashira are the strongest swordsmen within the Demon Slayer Corps. Becoming a Hashira requires extraordinary strength, discipline, and a willingness to repeatedly place one’s life in danger. Despite their differences in personality and philosophy, every Hashira carries the same burden: knowing that the Corps depends upon them, while accepting that their position may eventually lead to their death.
