MandrillMask

"OwlMask would be proud of that, that I do know for sure."

- MandrillMask to FlamingoMask.

MandrillMask (マンドリルマスク Mandorirumasuku) is a Shadowblood Mentor with a mandrill motif, an ancient and mystical Shadowblood of mythical status, the mentor to OwlMask and later FlamingoMask and an RP character conceptualized and used by Gallibon the Destroyer.

Personality
MandrillMask is a very wise, good-hearted, mystical, powerful, ancient and resourceful Shadowblood who is of a mythical status. He is almost always seen being stoic, however he has a sense of humor and likes to trick/mess with others sometimes with his powers, but in a very light way. While on the side of good, MandrillMask has made himself reclusive, only deciding to make himself present in times of a emergency or dire situation. He has himself so elusive and hard to find, to the point many doubt if he actually exists or not. In regards to training, he will only train those who he sees as worthy and when they finally do become his apprentice; he will show them that the path to become a better trained warrior is really not an easy one, but one that is very worth it in the long run.

Backstory
Virtually almost nothing is known about his past, where he comes from exactly, which universe he comes from and among other things, but this is chiefly due to him having lived a long time ago to the point history did not record it and only leaving him to remember of the times from before. Contacting him about it as well is no easy task. MandrillMask would spend his time later on during his adult life going out and training other people from history and across the universes/worlds to become better warriors as well as showing them the path to greatness. However during this time, he had also made himself scarce sans to the people he trained, giving him a status of something of legend to others who were lucky enough to see him (their is an old joke that if maybe you say MandrillMask's name three times in the dark, he will appear to you.)

One of his most notable apprentices was none other than OwlMask during the 60's, who he helped train to become a better hero and help him in his time of need. Unlike the past heroes however, OwlMask kept in good touch with MandrillMask, still being able to contact with him even during the years FlamingoMask was a teen. OwlMask ended up being for the longest time, the last living person (at least that we know of so far) to have met MandrillMask in person. MandrillMask then dropped off the radar once again however, up until recent times...

Debut: The Mystery of MandrillMask Pt. 1: The Search for MandrillMask
MandrillMask first appeared near the end of the RP where after Dangan shot FlamingoMask, leaving him for dead, MandrillMask then froze time and then levitated towards FlamingoMask, healing him of his wounds, also chanting as he did so. After he finished healing FlamingoMask and removed his bullet wounds, MandrillMask then took off to his hill, then allowing time to resume. FlamingoMask realized after the battle that MandrillMask had to have been there and then flew up to meet up with him, to which he then finally met up with MandrillMask at his hill. MandrillMask then saw FlamingoMask and greeted him.

The Mystery of MandrillMask Pt. 2: From the Flames of the Phoenix
FlamingoMask then spoke to MandrillMask some more, also bringing up to MandrillMask that his (FlamingoMask's) father OwlMask had sent him there. After some more talk, FlamingoMask asked if MandrillMask would actually train him, given he had come all this way to find him. MandrillMask said he was already accepting to him and thus trained him, however he said that the process wouldn't be easy. MandrillMask then instantly began the training process, which took many hours, if not days to do so. MandrillMask gave FlamingoMask many tasks to do; such as having FlamingoMask going underwater and swimming fastly, using his fists to smash some boulders, going through fire, climbing the mountains and going through the dark blindfolded, etc. All while doing this, FlamingoMask's chest began glowing faintly upon finishing some of the tasks. MandrillMask also taught him some of his techniques during this.

Finally it came to the final task; which was for FlamingoMask to enter inside of the cavern which seemed endless and lacked an exit. MandrillMask told FlamingoMask to not use any of his weapons and that he had to be careful inside. Following FlamingoMask's passing of the final task and exiting the cavern, MandrillMask then congratulated FlamingoMask, then also told him about the five new forms he had obtained from his training and from unlocking the power of the Grand Phoenix. MandrillMask then said he had to go for now but he would come to FlamingoMask if he needed help again. He then rode onto a cloud, ascending up above to the heavens.

Quotes
"The Phoenix is not your only form to come. Their are several others yet to come. Their are many you have to unlock for yourself. As of now, thanks to your commitment to your training and hard work; you have five forms. All of them have their own special power and based off the birds of legends/myths. Due to that burst of energy you had within the cave; you can access them whenever. Being one who can control the elements; use them wisely however; as each form is very special and hard to come by; they are not toys."

"If you ever need my help again, I will return to you. Until then, see you around."
