Knife the Bisharp

Gender: Male

Species: Bisharp

Personality: Shy but energetic, Knife is a kindhearted individual often described as having a "heart of gold." His empathy and capacity for forgiveness extend even to the most vile, and he deeply cares for his loved ones, becoming fiercely protective of them.

Intelligent and creative, Knife enjoys painting his surroundings and wildlife, and he possesses a strong aptitude for learning, particularly history and biology. He is also self-aware and readily admits his faults.

Despite his gentle nature, Knife, being part Dark type, harbors a dark energy. Though his intentions are good, rage can trigger frightening behavior, leading him to commit acts of violence to protect those he loves.

Appearance: Knife the Bisharp is a 6-foot-tall, male humanoid of Asian descent, clad in metallic armor with an unguligrade-like lower half and posture. The armor is predominantly a mix of red and gray, accented with gold. His design features a distinctive armored helmet attached to the head, with a golden, double-headed axe blade protruding from the glabella (between the eyes), accentuating the top of the helmet. The body has a mechanical appearance, with visible joints and sections suggesting a complex, articulated structure. Two circular, blade-like elements with rounded notches protrude from the midsection of the armor and are retractable. Knife's arms and legs are also armored; retractable blades extend near the elbow joints, and he possesses cloven metal hooves with box-shaped heels.

Knife's black hair is long and silky, tipped with purple highlights that match his eyes. His youthful-looking synthetic skin is smooth and light-toned, free of blemishes or acne.

Knife, like others of his kind, possesses four rows of razor-sharp teeth—two on the top and two on the bottom. In this respect, they closely resemble shark teeth and are continuously replaced as old ones fall out.

History: Knife was born into the prestigious blade lineage in the Kitakami Wilds. As a young Pawniard, he lived in his family's fortified castle, presiding over a city governed by the shogunate—his father, Guntō the Kingambit, being the shogun. Much like his brother, Blade, Knife was highly respected by the neighboring villagers due to his rank in the hierarchy. Many preferred Knife over his brother because of his kindness and generosity toward others. However, things were not so kind to young Knife. Considered a "runt" among the imperial army, he was often bullied by other Pawniard, who called him "weak" and a "disgrace to the clan." This was due to Knife's inability to take down the prey the packs were assigned and often needing his brother or the head Bisharp to rescue him from threats such as Tinkatuff.

Knife led a solitary life growing up, often painting pictures and reading Monogatari (Tales) and Nikki (Diaries/Poetic Journals), even keeping a personal journal detailing his thoughts and wishes to become a good warrior like his brother. Knife did not like being cooped up inside every day, so he often ventured out and took walks through the village. Once he was older and stronger, he explored other parts of Kitakami and even traveled by plane to Pokémon-friendly locations.

Sometimes his brother, Blade, would accompany him, mostly to ensure he was safe and didn’t get into trouble. This kept Knife from feeling completely isolated and helped with his shyness. Knife loves food, but at some point, he was diagnosed with diabetes which made him cautious about his health.

Eventually, Knife fell in love with Rachel the Angel, a relationship that triggered memories of a past life where he served as a melee weapon before belonging to her.

Here is a digital illustration I created of one of my Pokémon OCs using Procreate. He needed new artwork and updated lore, so I spent a couple of days working on that. Originally, I planned to "enhance" it with AI, but the tool struggled to keep the design consistent, so I ended up drawing everything myself, using some AI-generated results only as references for intricate details in the design.
