Dan has brown hair and hazel eyes. He stands at 6'5". He has a tattoo on his back that reads as follows.
"There are many men who fear legends, but there is one man legends should fear."
Personality Description: Dan Westwood truly acts like he's a gunslinger from the westerns, probably because he's watched so many of them. When he was young he passed much of his time watching old westerns, he enjoyed them so much he decided to model much of his life on them. Now he makes sure to keep his cool most of the time, even in stressful situations, is rarely seen without his hat at the very least, and has gotten very good at shooting from the hip with firearms. Dan appreciates the material things in life, money, whiskey, women, he even likes a good fight every now and then. However, he also took to heart the deeds of hero's in the movies, and while he can come across as rough and ill mannered at times, it does not mean he doesn't know when to do the right thing. He firmly believes in the law of the gun and the sword, that rules don't mean a thing if you can't back them up with force if need be. There is nothing Dan hates more than cowards, through his life experiences, and indeed the events in many of the westerns, many of the cowards he's met turned out to be lying snakes in the grass waiting for another chance to scam people and find a way to live off the work of others. As such cowards should not expect much pity or remorse from Dan Westwood.
Powers:
Chi-fighting styles: Thanks to Sensei Yuudai, Dan is well versed in the use of chi magic for combat purposes. By channeling chi through his body and mind, Dan can project this chi in a number of ways.
Species Abilities: Due to constant practice, Dan is incredibly accurate with firearms, even, if not especially, when he fires them from the hip.
Biography: Dan Westwood grew up on the streets into the gang life, for many years that was all he knew. He had no parents and so looked to his precious westerns for guidance. He bought a cowboy hat at one point and even wore cowboy boots, and he especially prefferred revolvers out of all weapons. At one point he heard of a dojo offering free martial arts lessons, curious he signed up. There he trained with Sensei Yuudai, and showed much promise, despite his criminal background. Sensei Yuudai saw the desire to move away from a life of crime, to be the kinds of heroes he only ever saw in the westerns. Sensei Yuudai took him in and Dan never looked back, reinventing himself. He was no longer Dirty Dan, as was the gang name he was known by, now he was just Dan, Dan Westwood, the man legends would fear. His Sensei's dojo has set up shop on the island of Monta Carlos, he is to keep an eye out for anyone who may prove a worthy addition to the Gilded Dragons ninja clan.
Additional Information: Dan always carries two weapons, his katana, and his revolver. The katana and revolver are both of excellent make with intricate gold filligree and carvings. He also wears a ballistic vest that protects him from small arms fire and long range buck-shot.

Powers:
Chi-fighting styles: Thanks to Sensei Yuudai, Dan is well versed in the use of chi magic for combat purposes. By channeling chi through his body and mind, Dan can project this chi in a number of ways.
- Chi-slash: Dan infuses his katana with chi magic, the next time he swings it a wave of chi is flung from the sword and travels up to 20 feet. The slash will cut anything the sword itself would reasonably be able to damage. He can do this once per post (about every 5 minutes).
- Ricochet Bullet: Dan infuses his gun with chi magic, the next bullet he fires will bounce off of the first surface it hits, no matter what that happens to be. He can do this once per post (or 5 minutes).
- Chi-healing: Dan focuses his chi energy to his wounds to heal them, he is able to heal scratches, most stabs, broken or fractured bones, and even minor gunshot wounds. However, lost limbs and damaged organs are more complex and require special attention. He can do this once every 3 posts (or every 15 minutes). This ability can be used on others in the same capacity.
- Air dash: Concentrating his chi into the air around him, Dan can manipulate it to quickly dash up to 10 feet in any direction. He can also manipulate it to allow him to run along sheer surfaces, including the sides of buildings.
- Ninja-vanish: Concentrating chi on his body, Dan can dissapear in a puff of smoke, turning himself invisible. He will remain invisible for two posts (or 10 minutes) or until he attacks a target.
Species Abilities: Due to constant practice, Dan is incredibly accurate with firearms, even, if not especially, when he fires them from the hip.
