> “*Breathe. Focus. Strike true. There’s no second breath against a demon.*”
> 
> *Unknown Demon Slayer*
 
*In a world where demons lurk in the shadows, preying upon the innocent, a clandestine organization stands as humanity's last line of defense—the Demon Slayer Corps. Unrecognized by any government and shrouded in secrecy, its members dedicate their lives to hunting and exterminating demons, wielding specialized swords and mastering breathing techniques that push their human limits.*

<br>

### Becoming a Demon Slayer

In order to become a Demon Slayer, an individual must pass Final Selection, a test used as an entrance exam to join the Demon Slayer Corps. During this selection, examinees must survive for seven days on the mountain top of Mount Fujikasane, a perilous domain infested with demons. The examinees must rely solely on the skills they have developed in training. The majority of candidates participating in the Final Selection have undergone extensive training under the guidance of a cultivator of a Breathing Style. Only when these candidates have reached a satisfactory level of skill and competence, are they entrusted by their Cultivator to partake in the selection. However, there is one exceptional case of a Demon Slayer who entered on their own volition without previous training.
Candidates who complete the Final Selection are issued the standard uniform, as well as being given the opportunity to choose the ore for their Nichirin Sword, which is designed to eliminate demons efficiently. Each new Demon Slayer is also assigned a rare species of talking bird known as the Kasugai Crows for communication purposes.

<br>

### Masters of Breathing Techniques

Demon Slayers harness the power of Total Concentration Breathing, a disciplined practice that enhances their physical and mental capabilities. Through rigorous training, they learn various Breathing Styles, each reflecting a different element or concept, such as Flame, Water, Thunder, or Beast. These styles grant them unique combat techniques, known as Forms, allowing them to battle demons on equal footing.

\columnbreak

### Ranks and Hierarchy

Upon passing the grueling Final Selection—a survival test on a demon-infested mountain—aspiring Demon Slayers enter the Corps at the lowest rank, Mizunoto. Through successful missions and demon kills, they ascend through ten ranks, culminating in Kinoe. The most elite warriors, known as the Hashira, are the strongest swordsmen, each representing a Breathing Style and holding immense authority within the Corps.

<br>

### Equipment and Uniform

Every Demon Slayer wields a Nichirin Blade, forged from a special ore that absorbs sunlight, the demons' primary weakness. These blades change color based on the user's personality and Breathing Style. Slayers also don a distinct uniform, resistant to demon attacks, and are accompanied by a Kasugai Crow, which delivers missions and communications.

<br>

### Creating a Demon Slayer

When crafting your Demon Slayer character, consider the following:
Background: What tragedy or event led you to join the Corps? Perhaps a demon attack claimed your family, or you seek redemption for past failures.
Breathing Style: Which style resonates with your character's spirit? This choice will influence your combat techniques and role in the party.
Rank Progression: As you gain experience, your rank within the Corps will rise, reflecting your growing prowess and reputation.

<br>

> ### Quick Build
>
>You can make a Demon Slayer quickly by following these suggestions. First, put your highest ability score in Strength or Dexterity, followed by Wisdom. Second, choose the folk hero or haunted background.

#### Nichirin Weapon

*Weapon (marital, any melee weapon), uncommon, requires proficiency as a Demon Slayer*

Forged from Scarlet Crimson Iron Sand and Scarlet ore that has absorbed sunlight for generations, Nichirin weapons are forged solely for the purpose of slaying demons. Each weapon changes color in response to the wielder’s soul and Breathing Style, becoming a personal symbol of their path.

This weapon is made from a special sunlight-absorbing ore, forged specifically to channel a Demon Slayer's breathing techniques.

The weapon counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage. 
When you hit a demon or devil with this weapon, it suffers the following effects:

- It has disadvantage on saving throws against your Breathing Style Forms until the end of your next turn.
- If it is reduced to 0 hit points, it cannot regain hit points or benefit from regeneration until the start of your next turn.
- When it takes damage from a Breathing Style Form:
- Resistance is ignored.
- Immunity is treated as resistance instead (it takes half damage instead of none).
- Only a creature with the **Breathing Style** class feature can benefit from this weapon’s magical properties.

Using the table below, the color of your Nichirin weapon’s blade will shift to your Breathing Style nature.

At higher levels the Nichirin weapon gains an additional score to hit and damage up to a maximum of +3. The weapon improves at level 5 (+1), level 10 (+2), and level 15 (+3).

As part of your attack action, unless stated otherwise, you can unleash Breathing Form using your Focus points.

>###### Weapon requirements 
>

Love must have a whip style weapon, this can include a weapon with a chain but is preferred to be a whip. A heavy weapon with a chain requires a Strength score of 15+ to wield.

> ##### Creator's Taisho Era Secret
>
> I did not use just the breathing style forms from the official series. I also used breathing style forms from the games, such as Sun breathing I swapped out a form or two from the game to better fit the overall goal of making Demon Slayer playable in 5e/5.5e. On *top* of this, to increase the variety I made some custom made breathing style forms for certain breathing styles that showed barely any in the series. For instance Sound or Love so I do hope anyone who comes across this finds my creation interesting but also enjoyable.
