'''Fai D. Flowright''' is a male anime and manga character who features in [[Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle]]. ==Biography== '''Yuui''' (Japanese: ユイ, Hepburn: Yui) was a male being born in '''Valeria Country''' where he had a twin named '''Fai'''. The birth of the second prince's son was a highly anticipated event but the birth of twins was considered a bad omen. After their death, the second prince died and their mother committed suicide out of guilt for giving birth to them. In addition, the country came to suffer from a series of many misfortunes and the twins were seen as a threat when their combined magical power rivalled that of the current king. The birth of twins in the country was seen as a bad omen, which led to many misfortunes upon the country. When the twins joined their magics, they were even more powerful than the King. The King claims that the twin's mother committed suicide out of shame for birthing twins and their father died from one of the 'misfortunes'. However, it is strongly suggested that the King is losing his sanity as he locks the twins in a pocket dimension where they never age and the dead of the Kingdom literally pile up. It is revealed that the King wipes out all the people in the Kingdom and eventually takes his own life in front of the twins. Eventually, Fei-Wang Reed appeared and offered to free one of them. Fai chose to save Yūi, resulting in Fai being thrown from the tower to his death, though Fei-Wang tampered with Yūi's memory to make him think that he chose his own life over Fai. Promising to return Fai to life if Yūi becomes his pawn, Fei-Wang bestowed two curses upon him. The curses are to kill whoever is a stronger magician than he is where he intended to kill Syaoran but was intentionally triggered by Sakura, and another curse that will use his own magic to collapse the world around them. He was soon found by Ashura-ō, who took in Yūi, having adopted the name Fai. Ashura gave him his tattoo to suppress the growth of Fai's magic and forbade Fai from using magic without his tattoo. Fai eventually learned that Ashura's intent was to be killed by Fai's first curse, as Ashura killed people in order to make his own magic stronger. Fai D. Flowright (Japanese: ファイ・D・フローライト, Hepburn: Fai D. Furōrait) Fai vowed that he would not use his magic again without the tattoo on his back, but breaks the vow when he creates a shield in Lecourt Country around the group in order to save them. In the Tokyo arc, he again uses his magic to try and reseal, the living heart of Clone Syaoran. The clone then proceeds to eat Fai's left eye, which contained half of Fai's magic, saying he needed Fai's powers in order to get Sakura's feathers for himself. Brought to the brink of death from the shock of losing one eye, Fai resists attempts to save himself, reasoning that the clone would be unstoppable with his powers, but that the magic would perish if Fai dies. Fai's request to die is ignored by Kurogane, who saves him by following Yūko's advice. Fai is then fed Kamui's blood and turns into a vampire, one with accelerated healing abilities but who needs to consume blood to survive. Because it is Kurogane's wish and not Fai's that he should live, Kurogane from then on has to take responsibility for Fai's life: the blood Fai received was mixed with Kurogane's blood, so that Fai can only feed from him. Fai now has to drink Kurogane's blood on a regular basis in order to survive; he literally needs to depend on the ninja to live. After these events, Fai stops addressing Kurogane by silly nicknames and begins to use his full name in order to distance himself. Fai confesses to Yūko that he had not realized how close the two of them have become, and that, if he forgives him for saving his life, they would be even closer. Later, after entering Celes country, Ashura uses his magic to show Syaoran, Kurogane, and Mokona visions of Fai's tragic past. This causes Kurogane to unsheathe his sword and attack Ashura and Fai. Though Fai is horrified that his comrades now know the extent of his secrets and betrayal, he decides to fight back with magic to protect Ashura, and also due to his vow not to die before he saves his brother. The two engage in a fierce battle, and in the mayhem, Kurogane damages the body of Fai's twin, and in that moment of weakness, manages to overpower Fai. Kurogane then demands Ashura to tell him why he showed them Fai's memories, and he responds by saying that he only wanted Fai to "grant his wish" and kill him. Ashura launches vicious spells against Fai's comrades in order to force his hand, which causes one of the massive ice stalagmites that he conjured to pierce Kurogane in his right side. Angry, Fai attacks Ashura, retrieves Sakura's body, and places her with Syaoran for protection. Fai then decides to kill Ashura for the sake of both their wishes, but Fai's lack of a will to live and the loss of his eye prevents him from fighting at full strength. Ashura overpowers him, and tries to kill Syaoran and Sakura in order to draw out his true power. However, Kurogane intercepts the attack and stabs Ashura with his sword, killing the king. The feather in Fai's brother's body then shows Fai the true reason for his death. It returns to Sakura's body and the corpse disintegrates, finally at rest. ==Overview== ===Personality and attributes=== In appearance, Fai D. Flowright was a fairly tall, young-looking man with spiky blonde hair and blue eyes. His usual outfit consists of a blue mink coat with a fluffy hood. Despite being very energetic, Flowright retained a highly enigmatic air around him. He was shown to be cheerful, good-natured, and acted very carefree. Flowright did not bother to fight hard for his life where he only did so if someone he cared for was in danger. Having lost his tattoo, Fai refuses to use magic anymore and relies on weapons to battle. Fai's outward behavior becomes much colder in the following volumes. He drops his joking and happy-go-lucky demeanor, and smiles less. His interactions with the rest of the group becomes very distant and formal. The exception to this is Sakura, whose behavior (at the time) is as dark as his. Fai grows close to her in their mutual suffering and pledges loyalty to the princess. When Sakura informs him of her wish, he promises to help her without informing the others and without asking for more details. Fai appears to be cheerful and good-natured, and acts very carefree. He often teases Kurogane, who questions this nature, sensing that it is just a false persona to hide that he is emotionally distant. He did not wish to return to his home country of origin and this led to him giving up the tattoo on his back in exchange for Mokona to travel through dimensions. ===Powers and abilities=== Even without using magic, he was able to detect and assess various types of magic with no effort. The source of Fai's magical powers is the blue color of his eyes that allow him to perform spells, which also greatly increases his lifespan. His powers are effectively halved when Syaoran consumes his left eye and is forced to become a vampire using Kamui's blood to save his life. After losing his tattoo, Fai did not to use magic anymore and relies on weapons to battle. Fai is given two of Sakura's feathers. He uses one to create Chii (whom he apparently made to look like his departed mother), and the other is the feather Fai "found" in the first world the group travels to after meeting Yuuko. Without that first feather Sakura would have shortly passed away. Fai was aware that he would eventually travel with Syaoran and co. and act as Reed's agent. However the positive influence that his companions would have on Fai was not taken into consideration, nor the lengths Kurogane would go to save Fai from his curses. ==Notes== *Fai D.
