Heat. Heat is life, warmth sustains the living, keeps us from boiling over into the cold abyss of death. The great flame, the greatest piece of flame this world can hope to hold shines brightly in the sky, keeping that heat, just enough to hold us gently, like a mother cradling their child. But heat, heat is more than warmth, it is as much as divine punishment as it is a gift, throughout the world, death by flames is excruciating, and as such, there are those given the job of taking those who have gone infernal from this world, freeing them from the pain of the flames. The Special Fire Force.
A new branch of the Special Fire Force has opened on the outskirts of the town, existing in a newly renovated, once dilapidated building, now the home of Company 9. With a large sign over the wall at the front, looking closer to a church than a fire station, with a fountain sitting in the newly grown out front garden. Someone sits at that fountain, resting on their own legs, hands tented together in prayer as he mutters to himself. He's large, not to a special degree, but more fit and muscular than tall, wearing a simple white gi and black sandals, both holding the symbol of the Fire Force, a symbol of the Holy Sol Church sits around his neck. He's got a small beard, closer to stubble, and hair tied into a black ponytail on the back of his head, resting on one of his shoulders. His hands are rugged from work, with coiling dragon tattoos on each of his arms, slightly different with each, but both burned by Tebrosis, the pyrokinetic's disease, flakes of skin turned to ash falling to the ground. His face is burned, leaving a scar that has fused part of his mouth together, forcing him to keep it partially closed at all times, making his teeth usually gritted and voice deep, along with one of his eye lids being completely burned off, making his look intimidating.
After his prayer is complete, he stands up, and goes for a walk around the new district he's been assigned to protect.
He feels an immense presence. "A disease, a curse, a wound... oh, what a smorgasbord..." Rumbles a deep, powerful, ancient voice. "Who might you be?"

He takes a deep breath, closing his eyes, which burn with flames bright as the Sol he worships "I am the captain of Company Nine, who might you be, disembodied voice?" He speaks with a gentle kindness, though his face remains blank.

"I am CRAVEBOIL, a... filtering spirit. I consume impurities with utmost care, then release the wayward haints who cause the ailments back into nature." It seems to circle around the captain, the dirt on the ground just barely stirring with its movement.

He sighs, heat coming off of him in waves, "And you seek to consume my own impurities? You may not, my apologies, CRAVEBOIL." He says, nodding to wherever the presence lies "A pleasure to meet you, though."

"Ah, it was worth an attempt. It is a pleasure to meet you as well." The demon stays a good few feet back despite not having a physical form. "I've seen how you handle Infernals. Very beautiful... when I can get a good look, which is rare."

"I do what must be done to put infernals to rest. I wouldn't want to live in the pain of burning in unending agony." He seems to know where they are, giving a small smile, as wide as he can muster "Anyone should know the mercy of death free from infernalization."

A quiet humming enters the air. "I hope to eat an infernal's... infernalization some day. They sound spicy. Unfortunately, I lack a body to do so. My last one was a ghoul, and it kind of killed itself by eating too many curses too quickly." The entity moves a bit further. "Am I bothering you?"

He raises an eyebrow, the one he still has entirely intact "Bothering? No, you have the right to speak, and I'm interested enough to listen. I am Kazuya, but you may call me by any name you like. I could form a body for you, but it wouldn't last forever, unfortunately. I apologize."

"Captain Kazuya. Rolls off the tongue, doesn't it?" The dirt rapidly shifts, as if the intangible beast were dancing. "I'd be more than willing to try it out, if you're willing to make me one."

He nods once more, taking in a deep breath, his chest expanding as he seems to concentrate. His burns grow as ash falls off of his arms and gathers in front of him, forming a Chinese Dragon out of the ash similar to the tattoo on his left arm. It seems to hurt him to create and keep this form for them, but from what they can tell, he's handling it fine.

The dragon is immediately possessed by CRAVEBOIL, and looks around. "My my, the amount of pain this is causing you must be exquisite. Such a detailed form, too..."
He slams the tail against the ground, trying to see if it will break.
