Cain said "...Ah? Oh yeah, right; I forgot to tell you to piss off... sorry about that. Piss off."

Name
Cain End'rana

Age
22

Gender
Male

Species
Cursed Human

Powers

End'rana's Curse - Cain is the last user to hold End'rana's Curse. The curse allows Cain to gain access to certain moves involving "Red Mana," but makes him more vulnerable to all magic spells compared to the average human.

Red Mana - A strange form of energy that serves as an alternative for mana. Cain is able to use Red Mana, an energy that exists inside his veins. Materializing Red Mana allows Cain to perform magic abilities, though unlike many magic spells, Red Mana spells deal physical damage and provide little to no magic damage. The only time Red Mana can actually be used as proper magic is when Cain fully covers his own broadsword with the energy. Keep in mind that most of the time, Red Mana acts like thick liquid that can solidify into many shapes quickly.

Sanguine Gauge - Every three Red Mana abilities grant Cain Sanguine Charges. These charges lets Cain gain access to his Sanguine Drive abilities, which are his most powerful abilities. Cain can hold up to three Sanguine Charges, but can overload the amount of charges he has by four if he continues to use his Red Mana abilities. The fourth Sanguine Charge will disappear after five seconds if another Red Mana ability is not used. Red Mana abilities will reset the fourth Sanguine Charge's duration. He apparently can overload more than one Sanguine Charge, though he himself does not know of this yet.

Customized Fighting Style - Cain never learned of any martial art properly. While this does seem like a problem for him during heated battles, Cain has a lot of room for him to add more abilities into his fighting style as he sees fit.

Empowered Strength - Cain has a regularly more-than-average strength. This, combined with the strength End'rana's Curse provides, makes him a fairly hard-hitting fighter. He also has a surprisingly tough resistance against physical damage compared to the average human.

Cometfall - Cain's large broadsword. This broadsword has the function to morph into a large, mechanical scythe as well, though Cain prefers to use the sword form of Cometfall. The Cometfall is a very tough weapon, and can be reforged should it ever break. This is Cain's only weapon. Cain usually uses the scythe form of the weapon against certain groups of enemies.

Abilities

Rancid Splitter - Cain channels his Red Mana to his blade before vertically slashing upward. This ability deals moderate blunt damage, and can deflect the first reasonably-sized projectile it makes contact with. It cannot deflect over one projectile. If Cain slashes at the terrain beneath him, a materialized projectile of Red Mana will slide through the terrain in a single line until it either collides with something or remains untouched for three seconds.

Bastard Slash - Cain channels his Red Mana to the blunt edge of his sword. He then smashes the blunt edge on an opponent. This ability deals a surprising amount of blunt damage, and knocks back opponents that manages to block the attack.

Frantic Gauntlet - Cain forms Red Mana around one of his free hands before pulling off any kind of punch. Successfully hitting the opponent with the ability will temporarily make the target feel dizzy. Though this move is somewhat predictable, Cain can use any kind of punch, which can make things a little harder for those who cannot see through attacks easily.

Guilt Shock - Cain smashes himself away from the ground with his broadsword, charging Red Mana in a free hand. When Cain lands after charging the Red Mana, a small shockwave of Red Mana will knock away all targets around him at a short distance.

Artificial Takedown Ver. A - Cain's broadsword turns into the form of a scythe. He then extends the handle of the scythe, increasing the range of his weapon for a split second, before pulling targets towards him. When he uses Artificial Takedown, he may choose to either use a blunt blade or a sharp blade for the weapon. The scythe cannot remain extended for a long period of time.

Artificial Takedown Ver. B - Cain forms Red Mana on one of his free hands before firing a chain attached to a dark-red blade at a moderately fast speed. If the blade successfully hits the target, Cain will either have the choice to make it explode and recover some of his lifeforce or drag the opponent towards him or another location. Doing nothing will result in the chain simply disappearing from existence. The initial strike does moderate physical damage, and the explosion deals minor magic damage.

Red Constriction - Cain smashes the ground with the blunt edge of his broadsword, creating a shockwave filled with Red Mana in a cone in front of him. Anyone caught in the shockwave will be trapped by chains made of Red Mana that remains strong for one second before loosening up.

Red Squall - Cain's hands glow red briefly before the ability is used. Cain smashes the ground with the sharp edge of his broadsword, creating a shockwave filled with Red Mana in a long cone in front of him. The length of the shockwave is longer than Red Constriction's. Anyone caught by the shockwave will be dealt a fairly high amount of blunt damage. After the shockwave vanishes, red "snow" will slowly fall around Cain. These "snow" that appear subsequent to the shockwave will surround Cain's body to protect him from the next physical or magical strike he receives in the next three seconds (this snow cannot fully defend him, and only creates a partial shield). If nothing hits Cain, the snow will partially heal Cain instead (ie. bruises will be healed, but open wounds will only get closed).

Sanguine Drives

Rancid Chopper - (This ability uses one Sanguine Charge) - Cain turns his broadsword into a scythe before using his Red Mana and a Sanguine Charge to empower his own strength. He then spins the scythe at an extremely fast speed, carrying himself through the air for ten seconds. The blade will deal minor physical damage to anyone that touches its spinning frame and partially knock them away. Cain may freely cancel out of this ability during the ten second duration, which allows Rancid Chopper to also be used as an aerial counterstrike move.

(NOTE: Cain absolutely hates it whenever people climb onto him and scream "GET TO DAH CHOPPAAAAAHHH" as loud as they could; it is unadvised to scream such words next to him, as he could easily gain interest in beating whoever screamed into a sorry little pulp)

Rackshaw Cancel - (This ability uses one Sanguine Charge) - Cain immediately cancels a Red Mana ability at any moment. Cain has the option to either back off or swiftly follow up the Cancel with another Red Mana ability or a Sanguine Drive ability other than Rackshaw Cancel. This particular ability grants Cain the ability to "combo" into other abilities. This ability was named in honor of Brako Rackshaw, mainly because Cain likes Brako's last name and due to the old man actually inspiring him to invent such an ability.

Demislash - (This ability uses two Sanguine Charges) - Cain's hands glow bright-red when he activates this ability. After preparing his blade, Cain dashes through the closest target and attacks enemies up to seven times, attacking them with his blade in hand. During this particular attack, Cain is untargetable, but his sword attacks can still be blocked, deflected, or dodged. Cain can attack the same enemy multiple times, which makes this ability strongest when used against an isolated target. The entire attack lasts up to two seconds.

Chronic Explosion - (This ability uses two Sanguine Charges) - Cain forms a ball of Red Mana before crushing it. The remains of the Red Mana becomes extremely volatile and covers his broadsword. The next seven strikes dealt by Cometfall will cause an explosion on impact, knocking away all enemies hit by the forceful ability. Chronic Explosion becomes extremely useful when combined with Demislash, as its explosive properties can disable multiple targets or potentially break through a single target's defenses and stun them.

Dead Red Absolution - (This ability uses three Sanguine Charges) - Cain turns his broadsword into a scythe before channeling much of his Red Mana to empower it. He then jumps high in the air before smashing a target location with the scythe. A large shockwave of Red Mana will erupt from the target location, and will continue to spread forcefully until every part of the Red Mana hits a wall or continues moving for ten seconds. All targets in the impact zone will be dealt a large amount of physical damage, and Cain will significantly heal himself if the targets are within the impact zone.

Cross Counter - (This ability uses four Sanguine Charges) - Cain uses up four of the Sanguine Charges he gained and quickly surrounds himself with a coat of Red Mana. If Cain is hit by a physical or magical strike while this ability is active, Cain will immediately stab the ground, transferring the power he had been using and half of the damage he received into the Earth. At a fairly wide range, the ground will erupt with Red Mana. Anyone caught within the area of effect will be knocked away from Cain with great force, and will be dealt high physical damage + half of the damage he received from the single strike. Cain can only use this Sanguine Drive every two hours. This ability is named in honor of Maria Cross.

Omnislash - (This ability uses all remaining Sanguine Charges after Demislash is used) - After Demislash, if Cain still has at least one Sanguine Charge left, he will land on the ground, slashing through the air. All targets Cain has attempted to strike, regardless of whether they blocked or dodged, will have a Red Mana sword slash projectile appear in front of them. This slash deals moderate and sharp damage (bleeds from the wound may appear if the target is hit), and can be blocked, dodged, or deflected. Multiple Red Mana slashes may appear on a target that Cain has attempted to hit multiple times.

Slaughter Festival - (This ability uses five Sanguine Charges) - Cain must be influenced under demonic influence to use this ability, and must have killed at least one hundred people. It is highly likely that this ability will never be used, and because he refuses to kill under nearly all circumstances. Cain is currently unable to use this ability.

Morbid Cutlass - (This ability uses five Sanguine Charges) - Cain is currently unable to use this ability.

Meltdown - (This ability uses six Sanguine Charges) - Cain is currently unable to use this ability.

Weaknesses

Magic - Self-explanatory; End'rana's Curse makes him weaker to magic spells more than the average human being, and Cain cannot cast spells that do not involve Red Mana.

Range

- Unlike many fighters, Cain does not exactly have any forms of far-ranged attacks. Cain needs to rely on running straight up to an enemy before dishing out damage.

Experience - Cain lacks a useful eye of analysis and relies more on personal experiences with certain fighters.

Blunt - Cain's bluntness made him an unnecessary amount of enemies before. His bluntness remains up till this day, and could be identified most easily whenever he talks.

Anger - Cain's personal bubble does not like to get popped too often.

Personality
Cain is more than just a "sunglasses-wearing punk" or a "fighter gifted with a talent for fighting." In fact, he's not just a punk: the fact that he carried a rare energy, Red Mana, meant that his life was already going to be troublesome. After spending twenty-two years of running, fighting, and disguising himself as some random local bartender from various organizations, Cain gained a gift that he never thought he would become talented at using: insulting. He has a natural talent at insulting things, and has very little respect when he is told of strong and villainous fighters that desire his powers, automatically putting every single powerful villain he hears of into his blacklist. Some people claim that the way he insults certain topics can be... creative, even. He can be sarcastic to strangers he never met before if they say something sarcastic at him.

To people who aren't fangasming over his powers in a yandere fashion, however, he actually remains fairly silent. His silence is more of a habit of living in seclusion under the eyes of the organizations chasing after him, which some people he knew of actually took advantage of it to become his friends. He still has one heck of a confident mouth once someone who is not his enemy brings up a conversation with him. Cain has the habit of treating elders or people he knows of (who aren't trying to kick his a-s and murder him) with more respect, and has a less heavy-hearted attitude. Cain tends to grin or laugh freely around those he cares about... well, that is, whenever he's not grinning mockingly during a fight.

Cain never had the ability to feel blank about killing people to solve problems. No matter how violent his methods could be, in the end, he is one of the last few people who would truly attempt to kill someone. The Red Mana in him drives his urge of killing intent, but he never ever gave into it, thus allowing him to become a student of Athalia as a reward.

Cain also seems to enjoy various kinds of animals, though he is absolutely afraid of snakes. He's also scared of clowns because a chainsaw-wielding clown one time tried to feed him to a pack of lions, which are also animals he is afraid of.

Background
When Cain came to be , all of his family members excluding his mother and father were gunned down in the very hospital he was born in. The men who shot down his family came from an organization that wanted something from his parents, which Cain speculates to be the "Red Mana" he has now. His parents lived a fair life without any kind of supernatural activity, so it was quite obvious that they could not stand for themselves against the violent men. They made a run for it, hastily taking Cain with them despite the many risks that very action held. Up to this day, no one knew how Cain received his powers, for they literally materialized from nothingness.

Twenty-two years had gone by, and now, Cain stood in front of a tiny house in the middle of large, quiet mountains.

Cain lived a life of a wanted man for his entire life, and the intensely dangerous life he lived was... particularly normal for him. At least, he had gotten used to the batsh-t insane people who always attempted to shoot him in the face. He himself could not understand how he could survive such circumstances without panicking like crazy. Perhaps it was the stupid power within him that made him feel so empty about the organizations chasing after him.

At the age of thirteen, Cain shifted through several states in the United States before moving to freaking China of all places... and the organizations still followed him. He needed to make money for his endangered parents, after all. The men attempted to shoot his mother and father, from what he heard of. It was unacceptable, but... he kept his word to his parents and never continued the cycle of vengeance. Instead, he decided to deal with his life and accept his fate when the time came.

One day, however, he received a letter. He found the letter resting peacefully in a rusty old mailbox. He never really received letters due to how he lived in secluded mountains, where he took care of his parents. The sender had a particular interesting name.

...Athalia Academy? The hell is this? Cain thought as he opened the letter. Don't tell me colleges want to dissect me or some sh-t like that?

It turned out that it was far from a chance to get himself gutted alive. Instead, it was a chance to move on. The academy claimed that it knew of his situation, and that if he attended the academy, they would provide shelter for his parents. It was a win-win situation: he would get to have some education and grant his parents protection from the organizations constantly after his life.

At first, he doubted the invitation's intentions. It sounded fishy: too fishy. Something about the letter made him reconsider, however. Perhaps it was his fear of one day losing his parents to those deranged people after his life. Perhaps it was just a selfish desire to experience something he never did like all the other people did. And the academy itself sounded strange... for it claimed that it had other students that have powers just like he did. That one part did catch his attention quite effectively.

In the end, Cain accepted the invitation. He would attend Athalia Academy, but more so than for the sake of learning, he would do it to let his parents remain safe. They agreed to work as regular faculty members, which meant that he'd still be able to see them once in a while.

He lived two chapters of his life so far: him learning how to survive in the dark world and him doing just that.

Perhaps it was time to begin the third chapter in his life, even if he did not want to move on.

Study
Nearly any class he wants to attend: his schedule is extremely random and flexible
