Name: Xing Yi
Age: 29
Weight: 153 lbs
Height: 5'7
Race: Human
Class: Shaolin Monk
Appearance:
Abilities:

Xing Yi is an expert shaolin fighter who has spent over 50 years training in the realm of the endless mountains, a magical dimension where time stands still (hence why he is still only 29). Because of this he has mastered abilities in his prime that even some of his masters weren't able to achieve until their old age years. He is a master at his his own 'Endless' Style Shoalin Kung Fu, Hapkido, Kenpo, and Bajiquan.
Needless to say, he can execute these dangerous moves with almost superhuman percision and his body is trained to the amazing levels of the best shaolin monks across the world. In particular his 'Iron Shirt' technique allows him to withstand damage from swords, spears and iron clubs, though doing this constantly will severley weaken him and make him temporarliy slow and groggy.

He also has a moderate understanding of some ancient Chinese magic, and is able to focus his mind to read simple thoughts, although this can be blocked by a similarly trained martial artist or a individual with considerable willpower. He is also able to communicate directly to others telepathically without speaking or being near them. He has used this as a fear and stealth tactic in the past. Xing also has a spirit finely tuned to all life forms and can sense all living things, plants or animals around him. His mind is also able to see spirits and other ghost like entities. Though without his equipment he cannot fight or interact with the stronger etheral types.

Equipment:
Given to him by his master at the Endless Temple, he has one item each respectivley forged by one of the 4 Gods they are:

The Fang of the Azure Tiger

A magical chinese sword which is blessed from the gods, it is unbreakable and is unable to be wielded by anyone that isn't a servant of the tiger god. It can hurt spirits and other etheral beings, and can be used to banish evil spirits to whence they came. The Sword has a special ability that will absorb and destroy the weapon so it cannot be used for the rest of the battle. He can make a short prayer to the gods which will take a few uninterrupted moments to withdraw the sword into his body and instantly heal all damage done to him, restoring him to 100% health. If interrupted while saying his prayer, he may only get a smaller healing bonus and his sword with vanish anyway.

The Robes of the great Turtle
Although they may only be lightweight shoalin robes to most, a servent of the great turtle may harness their hidden powers to become a shield to magical attacks, though not invunerable, a wearer is able to shrug off a low level fireball, and maybe able to survive being hit by a strong magic bolt. Although powerful arcane magic can destroy these robes, yet the robes will 'sacrifice themselves' to save the wearers life once before being disintegrated, such is the mercy of the Great Turtle.

Beads of the Blue Dragon
Xing Yi's Beads allow him to fire powerful ki blasts of holy energy at his opponents, these are devestating to evil or malovelent spirits but are less powerful on warriors of justice. against a completely pure being such as a preistess or an angel, the blasts actually have a healing effect. XIng Yi has not fully mastered these blasts and will sometimes drain too much of his own life force if he doesnt use the blasts sparingly. The power of the blue dragon is as such that Xing could probably level a mountain if he chose but would almost definitely kill himself in the process. His also able to cover himself in the 'Dragon's Aura' for a short time which is much more safe, allowing him to fight faster and stronger for while and give himself increadible leaping abilites, enough to clear the roof of his temple in a single bound. Obviously this power has limitations based on the users energy/life force.

The Red Phoenix Rod
The Staff that Xing holds is a magical item which he doesn't carry with him, he can 'summon' its existence at anytime. It comes to form as an unbreakable weapon which can become as hot as the pheonix's flames itself but only to it's opponents and those who aren't servants of the phoenix. It can take the form of a bo staff (pictured), a pair of nun-chucks, red gauntlets, or a long bow with an endless supply of arrows. All of these weapons Xing is trained to use with a unprecedented level of skill, though his personal favorite are the gauntlets.

Description: 6’1 tall and 202 lbs. Has deep blue eyes and mousy brown hair.

When in an urban setting he prefers to wear comfortable clothes of a non-descript fashion, such as loose jeans and a tee shirt, a brown bomber jacket prominently displaying the American Flag across the back, black steel-toe tactical boots and sunglasses.

When in a combat zone, he wears MCCUU MARPAT either in the woodland or desert patterns depending on the mission location.

What drives him: Seeking to understand what makes the world and the multiverse special. He is principled in his views and will stand up against a wrong.

Equipment:

Side arms

He carries two, MK 23 HK double-action semi-automatic pistols, in tactical holsters. These are 12-round, box magazine fed pistols that fire .45 ACP caliber, 230-grain Hydra-shok jacketed hollow point rounds.

Under his jacket is a multiple magazine carrier and dispenser for his firearms which is configured for rapidly dispensing ammunition magazines in the proper orientation to facilitate rapid reloading of his weapon.

The multiple magazine carrier holds 10 magazines per side and is curved for both left and right hand use and carried on a torso and shoulder strap harness. The carrier has a thickness and height only slightly greater than those dimensions of a magazine, but has a length sufficient for the installation of a series of magazines therein in a front to back orientation.

A spring and push plate or shoe urges the magazines toward the front of the device, where the dispensing opening is configured to facilitate the insertion of the magazine in the proper orientation for rapid installation in a weapon carried by the user. The user merely drops the expended magazines and slams the pistol butt against the dispenser where a new magazine is inserted.

Long arms:

(1) A HK416 Carbine:Caliber 5.56x45mm NATO (.223 Remington), Operation Principle Gas operated, firing from a closed bolt. Modes of Fire Semi-automatic, three-round burst. Feed Device- HK 30-round steel box magazine. This has a sling set up as well as an integrated reflex sight with nested IR laser aimer and illuminator. He carries five extra magazines.

(2) A Saiga-12 shotgun, a 12-gauge semi-automatic shotgun. This is a shotgun capable of firing 3.5 inch magnum rounds. Using 10-round magazines. In a belt pouch, he carries 4 extra 10-round magazines ammo. This has a sling set up for easy carrying.

Shotgun load out:

(4) Terminator rounds. These rounds contain a hollow core slug which has dozens of tiny lead pellets that spread dramatically as the core expands to 1-1/2" on impact. The initial shock caused by the core is further enhanced by the tiny shot, creating massive tissue damage.

(2) Fireball Rounds. These 12 gauge rounds produce an enormous wall of fire and sparks for 250+ feet. The incendiary metal contained inside burns at over 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit when fired, showering the target in a momentary wall of fire.

(2) TASER XREP cartridges. On impact, the forward facing barbed electrodes attach to the body of the target. The energy from the impact breaks a series of fracture pins that release the main chassis of the XREP projectile which remains connected to the nose by a non-conductive tether. The XREP projectile autonomously generates NMI for 20 continuous seconds. As the chassis falls away, six Cholla electrodes automatically deploy to deliver the NMI effect over a greater body mass. It delivers a Neuro Muscular Incapacitation (NMI) bio-effect but can be delivered to a maximum effective range of 100 feet (30.48 meters), combining blunt impact force to form a subtle non-lethal weapon.

(2) Incendiary Rounds. These 12 gauge incendiary rounds contain a chemical mixture much like that found in metallic cartridges. When the projectile strikes an object, the compound produces a brilliant flash of light at a temperature in excess of 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit,capable of igniting flammable material.

Each magazine carries the same series of rounds.

Close Quarters Weapons:

A 19" long survival bowie knife made of 1095 steel on his left hip in a leather sheath. Specifications: 12 inch blade, with a 7-inch hard rubberized grip. 1 5/8th inches wide, 3/16 inches thick. Weight 1 lb.5 oz.

A 26" long expandable impact baton with a rubber grip in a nylon sheath on his belt, right side. (Reduces to 10 inches when compacted, the two remaining sections that extend are 8.5" long apiece.)

In his small rucksack, he carries a black modified full-face tactical style helmet with night vision, thermal and infrared vision enhancers and SAT-TAC communication systems that he uses for night ops. JT also carries four grenades in his rucksack.

Area Effect Weapons

(2) M84 stun grenade, which is a non-lethal, low hazard, non-shrapnel producing explosive device intended to confuse, disorient or momentarily distract potential threat personnel. The device produces a temporary incapacitation to threat personnel or innocent by standers via a loud "Bang". The noise levels will be above 170 decibels within 5 feet of initiation.

**Detonating the M84 Stun Grenade in the presence of natural gas, gasoline, or other highly flammable fumes or materials may cause a serious secondary explosion or fire, resulting in death, or severe injury to friendly forces or unintended victims, as well as serious property damage.

(2) CN Triple-Chaser grenades. The Triple-Chaser® is a fast burning pyrotechnic grenade designed for crowd management. It consists of three separate canisters pressed together with separating charges between each. When deployed, the canisters separate and land approximately 20 feet apart allowing increased area coverage in a short period of time. It displaces smoke, CN and CS gasses. Tossing it underhanded delivering the sub-canisters along a line, from left to right, well ahead of the grenadier

He wears the Improved Outer Tactical Vest, (IOTV), used with the Enhanced Small Arms Protective Inserts (ESAPIs) ballistic plate series. Two small-arms protective inserts are designed to stop up to three hits from 7.62x51mm NATO M80 ball ammunition, with a muzzle velocity of 2,750 feet per second (838 m/s).

History: James MacLeod was a normal kid growing up in Santa Cruz CA, his parents were both blue collar folk who did the best they could to raise their 5 children. James was an excellent student and athlete and enlisted in the MARINES, becoming FORECON/MARSOC, serving his initial 4 years in San Diego, CA. He is an accomplished Close Quarter Combatant both with weapons and hand to hand. Now out of the Military he wanders the multiverse using his skills to help those that need them.

Mission specific skills: Sniper, Breaching, Surreptitious Entry, Electronic and Media Exploitation, Technical Surveillance, High Threat Protective Security (PSD), Advanced Weapons Training, Advanced Driving Skills (Urban/Rural/Security), Advanced Climbing/Rope Skills, Advanced Air Operations: HALO/HAHO/Jumpmaster/Parachute Rigger and Packer, Diving Supervisor, Foreign Weapons, Advanced Special Operations.

Powers: The D.A.R.P.A. developed MASS (Metabolically Advanced Super Solider) formula that he is injected with metabolically enhanced all of his bodily functions to the peak of human efficiency. Most notably, his body eliminates the excessive build-up of fatigue-producing poisons in his muscles, granting him phenomenal endurance as well as having his agility, strength, speed, and reaction time greater than any Olympic athlete who ever competed. JT represents the pinnacle of human physical perfection. Think of this as a super-steroid.This accounts for him able to bench press 2000 pounds (907 kg) and run a mile (1.6 km) in 73 seconds (49 mph/78 kph).

An odd and often disgusting side effect of the MASS drug is an emission of an ectoplasm substance, which is a white-gray, transparent, and viscous sludge, which mostly resembles mucus. It usually coats JT's body as a thin film. It occurs when he begins to exert himself. It however takes form as a misty substance during times of great stress, rising off his body similar to heat during a cold day.

This substance is solid enough to dissipate incoming energy to some degree before it affects JT's body. Acting as a type of armor or dampening agent, able to absorb energy diffusing it across the ectoplasm. He can also coat his weapons with the ectoplasm in order to affect supernatural beings that would otherwise be unaffected by his mundane weaponry.

After two rounds, the ectoplasm will generate ammo for the firearms, relying on person-object-memory to recall the ammunition loaded and fired and continually fill the magazines with ectoplasmic bullets that mimic the physical M855 ammo as well as the specialized shotgun ammo (XREP, Incendiary or Fireball). These 'magic' bullets can affect both mundane and preternatural objects with kinetic energy.

The last effect of his ectoplasm is to create streams that he can project. These streams are able to stick to objects with a thick string of ectoplasm connecting JT to the object the bio-energy has attached itself. Thus the ectoplasm can be used as a line, to climb up or down, swing across or grab things at a distance. He has an effective stream distance of 50 yards/150 feet

Jok ‘Boom-kid’

Race: Ramor, a race with a number of similarities to humans, they are humanoid mammals with the same number of appendages. The only significant differences are that they are more tolerant to temperature extremes and can last for longer periods of time without water, oxygen, food and sleep. Essentially they are an all-round hardier race of people. Their skin is thicker than a humans, and regardless of climate always dark olive in complexion. The average height for males is 5ft and females slightly higher, and their eyes are somewhat larger on average than a humans. Their life spans range around 60-70 years, even with their modern medical technology.

Gender: Male

Height: 5ft dead

Weight: 75kg

Age: 19

Appearance: Jok has a sharp angular face that one instantly distrusts, coupled with a boyish grin that completes the look of a bit of a prankster. His skin is dark olive in complexion, like all of his race. His body type would best be described as athletic, not noticeably bulky for a soldier but with a wiry strength. He has short black hair and brown eyes. His skin is fairly heavily tattooed, though nothing on his face.



Personality: Jok’s boyish demeanour is something of a front for what is by all accounts a sadistic mind. Perfectly suitable for his role as an explosives expert, prone to leaving cruel traps for the enemy, he shows little remorse about his actions. With a slightly inappropriate sense of humour and a mean streak, he is only somewhat redeemed by his loyalty to his squad.

Physical Traits: As a foot soldier in the Grent Republic’s army and a recruit fresh from the republic’s controversial new training facility, Jok is physically powerful, ruthless, and masterful in the art of dealing death, despite his age. However, he would still be limited by the restraints of biology if it were not for the exo-skeletons foot soldiers are outfitted with.

Unsuited

If Jok’s suit is disabled for whatever reason or unsuitable for a mission he’s forced to rely on his own muscles, with decreased physical capabilities.

Strength: Roughly bench 250kg

Speed: Max running speed of 24mph

Agility: Reflexes at roughly double peak human, due to controversial drug programs increasing the receptivity of synapses in the brain.

Durability: All Ramor have somewhat thicker skin than humans and denser bones, making him roughly twice as hard to hurt as a human his size.

Endurance: Jok can run at a flat sprint for 30 minutes, long distance training has increased his endurance to almost super human levels. He could easily jog for a day and night without rest, making it unlikely that he will tire in anything other than a long period of activity.

Suited

Strength: Roughly bench 1000kg

Speed: Max running speed of 50mph (reached in four seconds.)

Agility: Reflexes remain the same, but the exo-suit allows him to move his arms faster and with more force, almost quadruple his normal speed.

Durability: The suit doesn’t change his natural durability, though it is made of titanium and would easily repel a bullet if he was lucky enough to be hit in one of the structural pieces.

Endurance: The suit increases his endurance, though its relatively short battery life of six hours does put a cap on the amount of time he can spend using it.

Senses: Jok has the naturally powerful eyesight of the Ramor which is almost half again better than a humans, especially in low light conditions. Other than that his senses are similar to any humans, save for his pain tolerance is higher due to his controversial ‘training’.

Skills: After undergoing the three year intensive training program Jok has become the perfect soldier, unquestioning of his orders regardless of their brutality, capable of making tactical decisions, and incredibly proficient with his tools of the trade.

Equipment (all weapons are roughly similar to modern day equivalents in stats not included)

ALICE Pack: Specially modified for quick movement and access on covert operations, Jok is none-the-less equipped with what is most like the modern day ALICE pack. It’s fastened outside his Exo-Suit.

Weaponry: Jok’s load out is dependent on a mission, he has a small armoury from which he can choose to bring a reasonable amount of weaponry into the field. If there is no Intel on the mission or objective then he will bring a random assortment of weaponry from each category to suit different possible scenarios. His weapon choices are as followed.

Mainline weaponry

KG20 Carbine Assault Rifle: Weighing around 4kg with a full magazine of 30 rounds, with an adjustable stock that drops the length from 35” to 31” the KG20 fires 5.56mm rounds and is roughly equitable in terms of power and velocity to the M4 Carbine. It also features an under-barrel grenade launcher which can fire a single 40mm fragmentation grenade. Maximum ammo, four magazines.

SOP Submachine Gun: Only 2.5kg in weight and 26” in length with an integrated silencer, the SOP submachine gun fires 7.62 rounds and has an effective range of around 100 meters. Maximum ammo, four magazines.

Man-portable explosive ordinance

Hazard MGL: 5kg six-shot revolver-type grenade launcher that can be loaded with HE, HEAT, chemical and pyrotechnic 40mm rounds. It has a short stubby design and can effectively fire up to 300 meters at roughly three rounds per second. It fires rounds at a velocity of about 70 meters per second. Maximum ammo, six HE, two of each special round type on an ammo belt.

Leaper Shoulder-Launched Assault Weapon: Weighing a hefty 15kg means this rocket launcher is only really suitable when Jok’s suited up. Fires 150mm warhead with optional laser guidance system. One shot and it’s abandoned, similar to the MBT LAW.

Anti-Personnel Mine: Similar in essence to the M18 Claymore mine, max capacity of two. Can be activated by laser detection, trip wire, or remote detonation.

36Rde Anti-personnel grenades: Fragmentation grenades with motion sensor technology, designed to be thrown into a hot zone where they remain undetonated until triggered either by the user’s kill-switch or when a large body (roughly human sized) moves into the kill radius of five feet. Similar in detonation strength to an ordinary fragmentation grenade. Capacity of three.

Smoke Grenades: Essentially exactly what they sound like, similar to modern day equivalent. Max capacity, two.

RE20: Similar in essence to modern day C4 explosives, small satchels which can be adjusted to become adhesive and stick to surfaces. They are detonated remotely by trigger. Maximum of two.

Side Arms

Hedson Pistol: 9mm pistol, fairly basic, 12 round magazine, couple extra mags, can be outfitted with a silencer.

Jackhammer Revolver: 6 shot revolver, 50. rounds. Extra 6 rounds.

14" combat knife

Medi-Kit: All special operatives of the Grent republic are authorised with two multi-purpose stim-packs, administered by injection, the chemical stops bleeding, provides a boost of adrenaline to combat pain, and contains a powerful anti-toxin designed to reduce the effects of poisons and toxins.

Armour: Jok is always wearing full camouflaged combat gear on missions, including a durable weave vest similar though slightly more effective than modern day Kevlar. He also tends to wear a ballistic face mask with built in air filtration technology and a lightweight helmet with adjustable night vision goggles.

Exo-Suit: The most innovative piece of equipment designed by Ramor military service for infantrymen. The Exo-suit is a external titanium alloy support-suit designed to reinforce the user's muscular strength, making them faster, more durable, able to hit harder and lift more. It requires a ten minute operation in base conditions to attach the suit to the operator, and cannot be effectively removed without basic surgical tools. It's lightweight, roughly ten kg all around, and makes only a slight amount of sound as the structure moves. It's powered by hydrogen batteries attached to the back of the suit just above the tail bone. It can be powered down when not in use and moved using ones own strength, with only a slight encumbrance. It has a life of two hours operational, which is the trade off for having highly volatile batteries because they must be encased in the titanium shell and can't be easily replaced. The wiring is protected by the titanium shell, and the feet and knuckles of the operator are also protected allowing for the use of more powerful melee attacks.

Backstory: Jok is an infantry-man and demolitions specialist in the Grent republic's army. Due to the unique nature of his controversial training (for which he was volunteered by his orphanage) he is unquestioning of his orders and a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield.

Full name: Tharraleos Polemistis

Age: Tharraleos has lived for over 2,000 years. His aging process is highly decelerated and physically, he only appears between his late 20's or early 30's.

Species: Griffin

Gender: Male

Height: 6 feet, 4 inches tall

Weight: 275 pounds.

IQ and intelligence: 195. Despite this, he has never had much formal education. His IQ has come from his centuries of existence and knowledge he has acquired throughout his extensive life. Since he has lived across the world for many centuries, he has mastered numerous different languages as well as sign language as a result.

Sexual orientation: Heterosexual

Birthdate: Unknown

Birth Place: Unknown.

Residence: Wherever fate takes him

Alignment: Lawful Neutral

Dominant hand: Ambidextrous

Likes: Aside from training and challenging battles, Tharraleos always enjoys the simple things in life, such as fine wine, literature and poetry.

Dislikes: Weak or inexperienced opponents irritate Tharraleos to the point of boredom. He also despises losing a battle only if he didn't try with all his might. Modern technology is also something he despises, although this may pass much like it has with previous advancements in technology. Phones, computers and anything of the like are useless tools for Tharraleos and while he does have the ability to adapt to them quite easily, he prefers to stay far from them.

Hobbies and talents: Combat isn't the only thing Tharraleos has a passion for. He is quite the skilled poet, often converting his experiences throughout his life into poems of various types. Dancing is another hobby of his after he learned it had similar attributes to combat with the need for coordination and endurance. It is something he thoroughly and has become rather experienced in doing so, learning many different styles. Finally, Tharraleos is an adept yoga practitioner. It keeps his mind and spirit clear and is a crucial component of his training among other meditative practices.

Appearance: Tharraleos is an anthropomorphic Griffin with a a sleek and toned, muscular build. Being the hybrid he is; he has the head of an eagle, sporting white feathers and a large, golden colored and curved beak with two nostril pits. Despite having a beak, he has 2 rows of teeth with the upper and lower canines being 3 inch long fangs which are easily exposed. A pair of elongated, slightly pointed and erect white feathered ears are perked on the top corners of the front of his head. He has a pair of piercing and rigid eyes with a glassy white sclera, deep gold irises and black pupils. Another eagle trait is his strong and durable dark brown feathered wings protruding from his upper back which are typically retracted and folded against him. Once he fully spreads them out, his wingspan of 10 and a half feet is shown. Tharraleos has a fan of white tail feathers that are slightly wider than he is and reaches down to knee level. White feathers cover a portion of his knees and ends at his upper shins, where his golden tarsus begins. Tharraleos has 5 digit anisodactyl talons for feet with the same gold color and black, slightly curved 5 inch claws on each end. His arms, torso and upper legs are that of a lion with tan brown, medium length fur covering those regions. He has a overly thick and well maintained, black furred mane with streaks of dark brown scattered about. This covers a majority of his head and leaves his ears mostly visible while also extending to chest level. His paws are large with brown paw pads and an additional thumb-like digit on the sides. Both paws have 3 inch, retractable white colored claws hidden within them. He has a long and thin tail positioned just above his tail feathers and has a large tuft of black fur on the tip that is typically carried in an arc. When fully straightened, the tail is shown to be slightly over two thirds of Tharraleos’ height.

Personality: Due to his past transgressions under the rule of Malefor, Tharraleos lives by a personal code, swearing to never take one's life no matter the situation. Although in the midst of battle, he's not against severely injuring his opponent so long as he knows they'll survive. If one were to die by his hands, it would be the ultimate act of humility for him. There are exceptions to this when it comes to undead foes such as demons and vampires as he believes their lives have already ended. He possesses immense willpower and is extremely stubborn and does not believe in compromise. He believes in very clear definitions of right and wrong, acceptable and unacceptable, and winner and loser. Tharraleos will rarely take the role of a leader, though he sometimes serves as second-in-command or as the backbone of an organization or group. When this position is offered to him and he has no option to accept, his natural born leadership is shown. This is when it is shown Tharraleos is fond of making impassioned speeches to boost the morale of his followers and to bestow them with his wisdom. It is very difficult to convince him to change his mind, but once his mind has changed, expect him to jump to the opposite extreme of the argument. He is extremely confident, though in a more stoic and less outspoken manner. He has a strong sense of self-worth and may express it in a particularly abrasive form of self-righteousness. His prideful disposition extends further then confidence as Tharraleos views himself as a beautiful creature, frequently grooming himself to maintain his appearance and almost always admires himself should the opportunity present itself. There can even be moments where he can become frustrated at an individual if they cause any disorder in his appearance, more so if said individual is aware of this fact and their actions are intentional. He has a natural warrior-like mentality, preferring to fight stronger opponents rather than weaker ones and generally shows reluctance to fight those he considers weaker than himself. Tharraleos has incredible amounts of courage, both physically and mentally. That being said, he has the ability to confront fear, pain, danger, uncertainty, or intimidation with no problem. He can easily face physical pain, hardship, death, or threat of death. He acts rightly in the face of popular opposition, shame, scandal, or discouragement. Additionally, he is somewhat judgmental and will likely view an individual as an enemy before he counts them as an ally. He believes in confronting facing problems head on with a direct show of force and intimidation before they can become too serious a threat. Despite his life revolving around combat and caring little for anything else, Tharraleos is rather nonconfrontational when it comes to conflicts. He will initially attempt to peacefully resolve problems with speech and will only fight if he feels threatened or challenged. Moreover, he is a rather polite individual, exhibiting fine etiquette and prim mannerisms to strangers and allies. The key aspect of his personality is his strong, mostly unalterable convictions. He values honor above reason, is rarely forgiving to those that upset him and absolutely despises cowardice.

Abilities: Born to be a fighter, he has spent the countless years of his existence training. He has a wide array of abilities he can use both in and out of combat. The following is a list of his abilities.

Enhanced Condition: This ability has numerous uses. Tharraleos possess peak physical and mental condition. He has incredible physical fortitude throughout his entire body, allowing him to pull off astounding feats of herculean strength and can suffer high extents of pressure as well as damage. By placing a majority of the strength in his legs, he can leap far and high distances. Furthermore, he can fight for prolonged amounts of time before succumbing to exhaustion. Even so, he can function on low amounts of power, allowing him to operate for an extended amount of time and remain calm through stressful or painful situations. Tharraleos has drastically enhanced reaction speed, allowing him to maneuver around complex attacks, catch falling objects, block detriments and react instantaneously to what others take more time to react to. The extent of this is so great that in Tharraleos' perspective, the world around him appears to flow at a much slower pace then normal. He has an extremely well developed sense of balance and can precisely control his movements and muscles, making him unable to be uncoordinated. He can only fall over when physically uprooted or pushed, though most times he can land on his feet. Through much practice, Tharraleos can stand upright on even the most unstable of surfaces and can fight at seemingly impossible angles and positions. Also with ample training, he has learned to bend and twist his body far beyond the normal limits of physiology, although still only from the joints. His joints, muscles, tendons and physiology in general is modified to allow him to perform near-boneless looking contortions without stress or damage and stay in any position he chooses as long he needs to without effort or strain. He's quite acrobatic as well, being able to fluently preform a wide variety of flips and somersaults. He has immense memory and other mental capacities, allowing thinking on several different levels at once and while multitasking. He can remember great volumes of information and can recall a vast majority of the details of his experiences. Because he has existed for countless years, he possesses great wisdom: deep understanding and realization of concepts, people, things, events or situations, resulting in the ability to apply perceptions, judgments and actions in keeping with this understanding. It often requires control of his emotional reactions so that universal principles, reason and knowledge prevail to determine one's actions. Tharraleos has a regeneration ability which mainly shows its usefulness after combat. He can heal from injuries slightly faster than what is considered normal and he can survive otherwise fatal wounds. This has further allowed the numerous scars inflicted on him throughout his years to eventually fade and vanish. He can also can deny requirements for a long time such as the need of food, sleep and even water and even has immunity to most illnesses.

Enhanced Senses: While his vision is normal, it can act as a sort of telescope, allowing him to zoom his vision at will and see clearly from far distances. Using this will cause his pupils to make a noticeable increase in size. His eyes also allow him to perceive his surroundings in the darkest of areas as if they were under light. Once the night vision is activated, his irises don a green hue. Both of these sight enhancers can be switched on and off instantly and require nearly no energy to perform. His other senses are increased beyond a normal level as well. He can hear and smell clearly from far distances, taste poisons or other potential hazards and has the ability to sense vibrations through solid substances, liquids or even the air-pressure changes.

Flight: His highly durable wings allow him to reach speeds up to 400 mph. However, he actually has difficulty reaching flight without using the momentum from a powerful jump. Even once flight is achieved, he has very poor acceleration and could take extensive amounts of time before reaching full speed. He also has the ability to adapt to high altitude environments. He is able to withstand extremely high or low air pressure and isn't disoriented or deprived of normal breathing capacity by it as well as high wind friction, accompanied by an innate immunity to vertigo or fear of heights. Astonishingly, he can survive the vacuum of space for short periods of time, although it takes a bit of a toll on his body. His enhanced lung capacity assists with this. He has learned to control his flying well and can fight while airborne just as efficiently as on the ground.

Pride Empowerment: Because of the overexposure to the sin of pride, Tharraleos has become an embodiment of it and has the unique ability of Pride Empowerment as a result. The more confidence he has in himself, be it through thoughts, actions or words, the more his overall power is increased. Moreover, this power is subconscious and he must act prideful naturally. If he is intentionally prideful, this ability will cease to function. There appears to be no limit to this once he begins gathering it up, meaning he can potentially reach a state of absolute infinite power if it goes on for long enough. Once enough time passes without exhorting pride, any built up power will gradually reset and the power will become dormant. In addition, Tharraleos can project a purple colored aura composed entirely of pride energy at will and the more power he has built up, the more intense the aura is. This doesn't aid with his abilities and simply displays the amount of energy is at his disposal, although it can be rather destructive at higher levels. The aura typically covers his entire body, but he can minimize it to anywhere on his body and can dispel it at any time.

Telekinesis: Tharraleos' mental capacity and abundance of mental training has granted him the ability to control objects through sheer thought. Said objects must be within his line of sight, or at the least, he must have pinpoint awareness of their location and he must have the utmost concentration on this ability. The extent of this is identical to his physical limits, meaning with his mind, he can exhort the same amount of force mentally as he can physically and it corresponds to the amount of pride power he has garnered. As such, there a wide variety of feats he can achieve with this ability.

Telepathy: Another feat accomplished through Tharraleos' mental strength. There are a number of prerequisites that are required to be in order for this to be fully effective. Firstly, Tharraleos must have ample concentration and almost enter a meditative state. Secondly, he must have physical contact with the target, preferably with one of his paws. The target must also be mentally willing to permit him this task, and once he makes the initial contact, he can speak with the target through thought and talk them through the process. Once this is done, Tharraleos can enter the mind of the individual, where he can see all the thoughts, memories and subconscious thoughts of that person. This ability also allows him to remain completely aware at all times of the true reality around him, potentially seeing through any optical and/or mental illusions that others attempt to deceive him with.

Aerokinesis: Tharraleos has limited control over the element of Wind. With a hefty flap of either wing, he can create and launch razor sharp, crescent-shaped constructs of wind from the feathery appendage. These cover a wide area and are known to cut through metal, but their accuracy is poor and it takes some time for it to be unleashed. As the amount of pride at his disposal increases, the speed in which he unleashes these and their speed once launched as well as their damage and accuracy can reach great levels. Using his enhanced lung capacity mentioned above, he can release a cone shaped torrent of wind from his beak. The reach of this is rather far and the most it would accomplish is knocking an opponent off balance for a short time. His pride power affects this as well and can increase the range and the amount of power is behind it.

Geokinesis: Much like the element of Wind, Tharraleos has very little control over the element of Earth. By using his formidable strength, he can send a fist to the ground with great force that creates small fissures and has a maximum radius of 15 yards which often forms craters. Depending on the amount of power he places into this, it'll either decrease one's stability or knock them down. Much like his Aerokinesis, the range and power of this ability is heightened depending on his amount of pride power. The extent of these tremors can reach to devastating and destructive levels. He can also burrow just under the surface of an earthen surface and move at moderate speeds. This is mainly used for surprise attacks or to vanish from sight. This ability holds little augmentation with the increase of pride, as Tharraleos is only granted a boost in speed once submerged in the ground.

Combat style: Throughout his many years, Tharraleos has studied and mastered innumerable styles of different Martial Arts, giving him physical, mental and spiritual perfection when it comes to hand-to-hand combat. It has given him the potential to harness his body's natural energy to maximize the power of each individual strike. Although he does have vast knowledge in a wide variation of weapon styles such as swords, spears and staffs. he prefers hand-to-hand. He is an analytical and strategic genius, allowing him to swiftly and thoroughly examine his opponent's combat style through even the faintest of movements and with the abundant variants of combat styles, he can adapt to almost any kind of opponent. He can almost instantly understand an opponent's method of thinking and combat style. Once he understands his opponent's strategy, he's able to find their flaws and weaknesses and gain the upper hand with little effort. Tharraleos can create strategies and plans several steps ahead of his foe, making it seem as if he has a sense of precognition. He is able to elaborate complex plans and strategies and apply them to combat. He has a refined balance of offence and defense which he can fluently lean towards one or the other depending on his opponent. He commonly begins a battle defensively, primarily focusing on blocking, evading and sometimes even enduring attack. This is his way of studying an opponent's tactics and to discover a potential weakness. Once the weakness is found, he begins to attack relentlessly with unyielding force. Tharraleos is a tactical fighter who either utilizes very precise pressure point strikes to promptly immobilize foes, or target other crucial areas such as the stomach, chest and facial regions. This is further evidenced by the fact that because of he lacks attack speed, he relies on outsmarting his opponents. He is also a fair fighter and will refuse to strike a downed opponent or strike from behind. The power in his strikes is immense and his attacks have incredible accuracy.

With knowledge of numerous fighting styles, Tharraleos has also adopted his own and typically combines techniques from other Martial Arts with his own unique style. He has learned to utilize his body's natural tools to maximum efficiency. His claws and talons can add to melee strikes for maximized damage. His beak can send forth a barrage of quick and deadly pecks in addition to a lethal bite using his formidable fangs. His wings can be additionally used to wrap around his body for increased defense and even a quick and powerful melee strike by lashing them forward. His talons and feline tail are prehensile, able to grasp objects with surprising speed, strength and accuracy, which is highly useful for combat. His lion tail also aids in balance and is quite flexible, which he typically demonstrates by coiling it around even the smallest of objects. Despite his tail's slim and weak look, it can actually withstand slightly more than Tharraleos' weight and can be used to strike foes with a moderately damaging attack. His fan of tail feathers is more or less used to assist with steering and maximized control while airborne, but can be used for melee strikes with less range. Overall, Tharraleos is a highly disciplined and remarkably adept combatant who's well aware of his body's limitations. He can potentially overcome any opponent even with the odds against him.

Weaknesses: His agility is slightly below average; although he is more quick and nimble then he appears. However, he can be put at a disadvantage against fast fighters. He is also rather large, which makes him an easy target in combat, especially in more crowded areas. Tharraleos has poor range with his attacks, especially considering he lacks any sort of reliable projectiles and relies heavily on extremely close ranged tactics. This can put him at a severe disadvantage against more ranged adversaries. His durability only protects him from blunt force, meaning the likes of blades and gunfire can easily break through his defenses. Ghosts and spirits are another problem for him. His unfamiliarity with them both in knowledge and combat has resulted in a mild fear of them. Pride is a versatile tool for Tharraleos, but it can serve as a weakness at times. He will always allow a foe a stronger transformation if they have one and will make no intents to stop them, or allow them to retrieve a weapon and will refuse to strike from behind or while an opponent is down. His demeanor may become brash and confident if he gains the upper hand in combat, often insulting his opponent's flaws and becoming relatively careless as a result. While in a battle, he typically does not fight with his full power, preferring to put himself at a weaker level then his opponent to present a challenge. This can potentially lead to a number of problems for him. Sometimes he even allows his opponent to strike him without any resistance in a way to test their strength. The most prominent weakness of his pride is the desire to never back away from battle, even if he's aware it could be his undoing. Tharraleos prefers to die in pride, than flee and live a coward. Although since these actions fuel his Pride Empowerment, the level of these weaknesses is debatable. Humility is his most lethal weakness and has opposing effects of pride. If Tharraleos commits acts of humility, his power will make a dramatic decrease and will drop heavily the more it continues. The extension of this can be so severe to the point it could end his life. Unlike his Pride Empowerment, this will not reset over time and will instead slowly dissipate with prideful actions.

Backstory: The birthplace of Tharraleos Polemistis is unknown. His parents were slain when he was still within his egg. This was the work of a malevolent wizard by the name of Malefor, who committed such an act just to prove how powerful he was after many of his followers doubted his strength. Moreover, Tharraleos' father, Yvris, had been a part of this wizard's forces. His innate prideful disposition formed him the perfect contender to fight for the wicked sorcerer. He was a savage and adept fighter who instilled fear in all those who stood against him and his master. This however had changed once he met Andrea, where the endless power of love overwhelmed the battle torn Yvris. Andrea had always fought unwillingly for the dark wizard and quickly altered the mindset of her beloved. It wasn't long before their child was to be born, and the two Griffins had plotted to train him to overthrow Malefor and put an end to his tyranny. This notion did not go unnoticed, and days before Tharraleos was born, Yvris and Andrea met a swift demise by the mage despite their valiant efforts.

The soon to be born Griffin was brought into the same legion of warriors his parents fought in, where he would begin training to become an adept fighter. Most of these members, much like himself were mythological creatures and were able to fight for many eras. This appeared to be Malefor's goal; to amass an eternal army of the ultimate combatants. Upon hatching, he was taken care of by various members of the clan until he was strong enough to begin his training. Since he could walk on two feet, Tharraleos was trained day and night to become a formidable warrior. Despite the harsh training, Tharraleos was a rather meek and timid individual who was always reluctant to fight. Aside from this, the leader of this army controlled them by infecting them with the seven deadly sins. After the sin of Pride took over Tharraleos so many times, it eventually formed the Griffin into a prideful warrior who never questioned his unknown leader's intentions and wanted only to show his strength. He was even eventually counted among the very few to be one of the most trusted individuals and even led his own brigade at times to send forth destruction in the name of Malefor. Although with talk from his allies, Tharraleos learned of his parent's fate as well as additional information about them. It was at this moment he began to resent the sorcerer and swore to himself he would follow through with their intentions

Malefor never actually revealed his presence and instead commanded his army of mythical warriors by telepathy while remaining hidden in an unknown location. Despite this, any notion of disobedience or abandonment was promptly dealt with. Centuries of this passed and Tharraleos had fought in many wars; achieving many victories, but also facing numerous defeats. His initial plan never left his mind, but he unfortunately never found an opportunity to follow through with it. But his prayers would be answered, but not by his own hand much to his displeasure. A clan of Geomancing warriors had occupied a large mass of land Malefor desired. Thinking very little of the earth wielders, the mage sent a large majority of his forces to both eliminate them as swiftly as possible, and to establish his new base of operations. This proved to be a fatal flaw in judgement as despite effortlessly overwhelming the Geomancers, their leader appeared just as they lost all hope. This individual had been bestowed with a divine weapon; a staff composed of rock found only within the heavens. Their unprecedented leadership and abundance of tenacity and strength boosted the morale of the earthen combatants exponentially. Malefor had soon found his legion was outclassed, and soon outnumbered. Knowing defeat was inevitable and cursing his own foolishness, he severed all control from his remaining army and went into hiding. Tharraleos took part in this battle and was one of the few to survive and only from the mercy of their foe once victory was obtained.

Tharraleos became a wanderer with his newfound freedom. He roamed the lands seeking a worthy challengers to hone his fighting prowess. Combat was the only thing he was accustomed to and he became obsessed with becoming as powerful as possibl. As such, he would continue seek battle until he meets his bitter end. The thought of Malefor returning is a frequent thought of his, however, and he intends to utilize his skill and power acquired over the decades to prevent another uprising of his.

Dmitri Valean. Age 31. Weight 182lbs. Height 5'8" Race Human
Dmitri was a mischeivous talent when he was young, and his loved ones always warned him of dangers, but he thought it was all games. The day he lost it he was outside shooting logs in the water with a slingshot. 'Thwack' 'Thwack' 'Thwack'....'Thump' Hmm? That's not normal.Suddenly to the small boys surprise, a massive reptilian beast emerged from the swampy bog, and lunged at Dmitri clamping its jaws on his left arm. It wrenched its neck, then was gone.... along with Dmitri Valeans arm. For months his father tried to find some way to fix this, and almost too good to be true he did. He connected his sons tendons and muscle sinew to an arm from an acient suit of armour. This armour was enchanted with magic nullification qualities. Performing this task however, killed Dmitri's father because he overestimated his power. And now Dmitri travels the worlds in search of a solution to his fathers tragic death, and he will let nothing...get in the way of that.
Appearance: Dmitri wears no shirt and his brown cloth pants are held up by a section of rope. His left arm is in appearance, a normal armoured limb. But this is his 'Savior Arm'.Dmitri has briwn hair in a common haircut style and blue eyes, and is moderately muscled.

Weapons: His savior arm has a side affect. It has magic nullification qualities( Said qualities consist of: this arm cannot be damaged by magic and no magic can pass through it, which in turn protects anything behind this arm.
'Dragon Whisker' is Dmitri's sword, and is similar to a jian. It is capable of being combo'd with his magic. The blade is 51cm(20 in) long.
His second weapon is his GuanDao. Its staff length is 4ft and blade length 1ft long.

Powers: Portal Manipulation: Can open portals( 2 max at one time) that himself, other creatures, magic, and all other objects can pass through to exit out the other. 100 ft is his max is his max portal distance away from himself. If any part of someone's body passes through the radius of a portal, that body part will be paralyzed for 3 seconds( affects Dmitri too, but not his Savior Arm) If its not organic, it's not affected by this paralyzation. Some things can cancel this effect, such as rather high willpower or some sort of heal

Nether Screens: Summons 4 thin plates of nether energy to the tip of his sword, which can then be swung of his sword 1by1 as sharp projectiles.
Withdrawal- Sheaths his current weapon into a portal, then draws another. (He only has Dragon Whisker and his GuanDao.

*For the portals: max didtance away from caster is 100 ft. In this range it can be opened anywhere Dmitri pleases, but cannot be in a pestilence, touching another object, or inside another player. Dmitri gains 1 charge in his savior arm evrytime it is hit with magic or a enchanted/magic weapon. He can open 2 portals per charge and stpre up to 2 charges, but can only ppen 2 portals at once. While the portals can open 100 feet from Dmitri, they must be atleast 70ft from eachother.Portals are unstable for the first few second of creation, so there's a slight delay of a second for when you catch a foreign object before it exits out the other end of the portal. After the first few seconds, they can pass instantly. Portals can't be opened within 10 ft of an opponent. The screens travel about 30ft.
The rocket pad can be attached to almost any solid surface, including flesh. So this can basically attach to something and send it flying at about 25fps. So Ex: User1 attaches the rocket pad to a weak pillar then presses the button. -TURN 2- the rocket pad activates and sends the pillar flying. Lightning scroll summons natural lightning from the nearest cloud to target location.
here's an example for how the arm works: lets say a peice of paper(AoE atk) is flying at you, if you do an overhead slash(chop) with a knife(arm), it cuts it in half, now the width of the knife(arm) that touched the paper is destroyed, and the rest of it countinues to come at you. So its basically cutting the AoE in half, and taking a chunk the size of his arm out of it, making it a slightly smaller attack, reducing the damage done to Dmitri. (Bigger AoEs will be affected less while smaller ones will be effected more.

Items: Placeable Jet Fueled Rocket Pad (size of palm)
Zip Ties (enchanted for small amounts of magic resist)x2
Lightning Scroll (summons lightning at target location, one time use)x2
Timebender's Twig (snaps a twig to teleport the user ten feet forward)x4

Name: Godrey Griffin / Orbital

Race: Human / South African

Sex: Male

Age: 46

Height: 5'9"

Weight: 249 lbs

Personal Description: Not what one would consider a standard issue hero, Godfrey is an ex police officer who retired only to serve and protect the innocent more efficiently than he was before. By any means necessary he does his best to police those who would abuse the powers granted to them to befoul the world. Most people in this mindset would take the "Holier than thou" personality type, but Godfrey doesn't see himself above any other. He doesn't see himself above the law, above men, or even criminals. He is a just and kind man with all intention to do the right thing, no matter the cost.

Physical Description: Godfrey is a borderline obese man. Heavyset and unimposing in stature, Godfrey's got unhealthy eating habits. Now, he's not morbidly fat, but he's got some clearly defined chub on his gut. Cleanly shaven, everywhere, including his head. He is bald, not by choice, actually, he started going bald early. Real early. His skin is incredibly dark, about as dark as Akon. (Pretty much the best skin color reference I can find.)

Draped over his body is a loose fitting silk poncho, laced with gold trim. The poncho is very simple, just a circle of cloth over his body with a hole cut in the top for his head. On his head is a simple cap made from the same material, it too is laced in gold trim.

Beyond that he wears simple three piece suits and nice dress shoes. This outfit is no costume, this is a professional uniform. Why a uniform? To give an air of professionalism to his vigilantism.

His left hand does not have a pinkie finger, the scar that begins at the pinkie finger runs up his arm up to his elbow. It is a deep and grizzly scar that disfigures his entire arm, it is from a violent struggle with a sword user's blade. Instead of risking his life, he sacrificed his arm and hand to disarm him. The scar is covered mostly by his suit. He wears white silken gloves to cover up his hand, the left glove has three fingers to make it look more natural.

Over the ring finger on his left hand he wears an ornate golden ring. No gems, just a carving of a leopard's head.

Skills, Powers, Abilities:
Flight: The first of his three powers gifted to him by the Awakening. Like many supers around the world he has the power of flight. He's not the fastest flying being in the world, however, he is quite proficient at omnidirectional navigation. His top speed is about 60 mph.

Enhanced Durability: There's nothing really remarkable about his physical durability, his skin is about as durable as bronze armor. Steel blades, energy blasts, and firearms are still quite deadly to him. Though he is resistant to them now. Particularly sharp blades have proven themselves disfiguring against his flesh, especially when their strikes are enhanced by super strength. Another thing to note, his bones are roughly as strong as iron.

Enhanced Strength: With enhanced flesh and bone, he can lift much more than he could previously. Effectively tripling his strength, able to lift about 600 lbs over his head and throw it a few yards.

Orbital Generation: Godfrey can produce floating orbitals that appear to be, at first glance, Spheres. However, upon closer inspection, they are in fact, 500 sided 3d figures. They are made of a strange semi-transparent crystaline material that is some form of hard energy. These orbs levitate around his body and are controlled by his will. They can travel at the speed of thought. (Roughly 220 mph.)

Innitial production is immediate, and he can form 5 orbitals around his body. Over the course of a minute he can produce another 5 orbitals. The speed of the production is not reliant on his stamina or mental state, as long as the intent to project is there, the orbitals will form. These newly formed orbitals can be moved through the air to any position that he wishes to place them. Allowing for maximum coverage with minimal production.

Projectile Platforms: Each and every orbital that he produces is a platform for high powered concussive kinetic energy bolts. These are effectively bullets made from pure energy. These rounds fire at roughly the same speed as a low caliber bullet. (600mph) This generates enough friction to cause superficial partial thickness second degree burns. With enough force to throw a grown man, roughly 200lbs, around 5 feet backwards. These are nonlethal, however, incredibly painful and effective. These projectiles can be fired at 3 rounds per second. (Three per turn.)

Police Arms training: Proficient with all manner of standard firearm. Pistols, revolvers, rifles, and shotguns.

Self Taught one handed swordplay: Heavy internet research on the topic of utilizing curved swords with one hand. Unprofessional, yet still quite dangerous when armed.

Police Martial training: A combination of Judo techniques and standard Aikido techniques. Used to take down armed opponents and keep them down without actually harming them.

Equipment:
Vektor Z88 Pistol: A standard firearm, used only in the most dire emergencies. This is his side arm from his police service, he keeps it on his hip in case he cannot subdue his foe without severely wounding or killing them. The holster is on his right hand side.

German Hunting Blade: A kind of german falchion, around three feet long and softly curved. Ever since his encounter with another vigilante who weilded a japanese odachi.(They claimed it was a katana, despite the shape difference.) The frequency of sword using superhumans is staggering, so to defend himself in the event of another encounter with a sword user he carries one on his hip. Opposite his sidearm.

Backstory: Born in a small town just off of Burgersdorp, Godfrey was nobody special. He had no great tragedy in his life, no big sad moment that changed him forever. Godfrey's father was a cop, not a special cop, not even a great man. Maurice Griffin was your average every day officer of the law, a good cop through and through. Much like his son would in the future, Maurice hated corrupt cops. And moved on from law enforcement to Internal Affairs.

Following in his father's footsteps, Godfrey went straight to the police academy out of high school. Shot through the academy and was an officer before he was 24. And he served active duty until the awakening of course. (The Awakening being a massive surge of evolutionary energy that washed over the Alternate Earth that Godrey comes from.) Like everyone else who mutated, he was subjected to changes from the Awakening too. However, he didn't notice until a week and a half later.

During a shootout with a pair of bank robbers who had taken the people inside hostage, Godfrey was on the recieving end of a stray bullet. The bullet, however, did not penetrate through his body. It struck him in the shoulder and broke the skin, it caused little more than a superficial wound.

It became clear shortly afterwards that he was a bit tougher than he used to be, the wound was tended to by a doctor. The doctor reported breaking three sutures trying to stich it shut.

The projectile spheres came later, when he was out on a fishing trip. He had just snagged a big fish, at least ten pounds, and was pulling it up onto the boat when the line snapped. In a desperate attempt to catch the fish he ran towards the front of the boat and thrust out his hand, before his hand formed five little shapes of white.

After that strange experience he started experimenting, found out he could move them around with just a thought, could make them fire off shots that put more than a few holes in his apartment. That cost quite a bit of money to repair, and a long explanation to the supervisor.

Two months of practice, about 50 dollars worth of cloth and lace, and a bit of travel expenses. Godfrey left his home to a country where he had heard scarce rumors of other beings who had gained abilities like him.

Upon arrival he was met with a rough skirmish between two rival 'factions' of superbeings. One apparently holding some girl hostage, the other trying to get her back. Godfrey stepped in, assisted in defeating the apparently evil group. And what did he get for his thanks?

The leader began berating him, screaming at him. Apparently infuriated by the fact that this newcomer in a simple outfit with no want for violence had decided to help him. The rest of his group disengaged, took the girl back to what could be called a base.

What followed has left Godfrey paranoid of other Supers, what followed has left Godfrey scarred.

The leader withdrew a blade, calling it a katana(It was actually a Wakizashi.), his sword of justice. Or some other quote along those lines. His body wrapped in a black whipping essence, and he unleashed hell upon Godfrey. Swinging his blade madly towards the evidently weaker hero, Godfrey raised his hand and caught the blade. The blade ripped his hand open, but he refused to let go. If he let go he would be run through or cut to ribbons.

With a twist of his arm and a vicious howl he pulled the blade from his hand and struck again, Godfrey raised his already wounded arm up to defend himself once more. Catching the blade again, watching his pinkie fall to the ground. Severed from his hand. His arm was in mangles, and though he did not wish to harm this man he had no choice. Godfrey created all five spheres point blank into the sword weilder's chest.

He fired. A sickening crack boomed as every one of his ribs was shattered by the impact. He was sent flying, his sword shredded Godfrey's arm even further as it was pulled away. Godfrey took off running, leaping into the air and trying to escape as quickly as possible. He was losing a lot of blood.

He passed out a quarter mile away, crashing into the ground in front of a police officer's speed checking post.

When he awoke he was in the hospital, his arm wrapped in gauze. He could barely feel it.

After a long explanation to everyone there, a court case, and a fine for disorderly conduct, Godfrey went on his way once again.

When the gauze was removed he saw just how badly his arm was damaged in the fray, it was grossly twisted. The doctors did what they could to maintain functionality, but in the process they had left it in shambles. His pinkie was gone, he had left it on the ground when he ran.

He took up odd jobs occasionally, did a bit of bounty hunting, got a good deal of money in a bank account to pay for his expenses.

After everything was paid off, and Godfrey had moved on from the incident, he found a website where he could order a blade. Forged by a modern blacksmith to be as efficient as the blades from olden times. Looking down at his arm he knew that he would need some way to protect himself from other superhumans with twisted senses of justice.

Godrey hates swordsmen, even though he became one himself.

Name: Alexis Tomer
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Race: Human

Hair Color: Reddish Orange
Eye Color: Green
[color=edlc24]Height:[/color] 5’4
Weight: 132lbs

---

Physical Appearance:
Alexis has a very toned body with scars all and around her frame. She has them on her neck, on the arms, legs, back. This is the result that comes from the harsh training she put herself through to become the best. It’s surprising that her feminine features remained intact, well for the most part anyway. Her red hair is still as glossy as it was before she started her training at the age of seven and her green eyes show such balance in her center. Her own frame isn’t that tall, though. She only comes to an inch shy of 5’5. Weight is surprisingly light, but don’t let that fool you. She will kick your ass before you even have time to underestimate her.

Attire:
Alexis isn’t one for being glamorous or fancy or anything of the sort. Honestly, she only wears what she feel she needs for a fight, which happens to be some nice combat boots that have a dull tan color with pink streak, fingerless gloves made from a special material that allows her to fight better that are the same color as her boots, a moderately light blue tank top, and knee-high shorts that are loose and tight at the same time that also are the same color as her boots and gloves.

Personality:
At the core of her being, Alexis is a fighter. She ripens when the heat of battle overtakes her. She could lose herself when she finds an opponent that can push her to her limits. Everything from the notion of finding a worthy opponent to fight all the way to beating said opponent turns her on so much. Some could even say that when she fights, it’s like she’s getting fucked silly. Fighting is her love and its her passion.

Her demeanor is focused, but due to her love of the fight, it’s also playful. She is cocky beyond reason and sometimes that could be her downfall. She knows it, and yet, as she has faced countless enemies over the years, it does not bother her. She sees it as a strength rather a weakness.

---

Physical Abilities-

Enhanced Physical Condition:
Be it her continuous training or something else entirely, Alexis has maintained a more-than-human condition that has allowed her continuously maintain a physical and mental condition. This entails that she is faster, stronger, and more intelligent than most human beings. She is able to react faster, endure more damage than most, last longer than most, and do everything that a supernatural can without being supernatural.

Enhanced Agility:
Alexis is able to go from one motion to another effortlessly, effectively dodge attacks, swing from things easily, sprint, do back-flips, and other gymnastic, athletic and martial implements with little effort. Agility is the ability to rapidly respond or change by adapting its initial stable configuration, the ability to change the body’s position efficiency, and requires the integration of isolated movement using a combination of balance, bodily coordination, speed, reflexes, strength, and endurance. Alexis has all of these parts that allows her to move freely and effortlessly, as compared to normal humans who can’t.

Even though she can do all of those things, Alexis is still suspect to things such as exhaustion and fatigue. And over time, her joints could become inflamed and arthritic. And even more importantly, this does not mean that she could survive falls from great heights or crashes into walls. Well, at least not without sustaining some kind of damage or injury.

Enhanced Balance:
Alexis has both extremely well-developed sense of balance, the positioning of limbs, and the center of balance as well as the physical condition to use those facts. The combination makes her almost impossible to being knocked down/imbalanced, falling down and unable to recover from momentary imbalances almost instantly. She can also almost perfectly balance on nearly any object, no matter how narrow or unstable it might be.

Enhanced Combat Skills:
Because she had spent so many years training and honing her fighting capabilities, it shouldn’t be that unbelievable that Alexis is skilled in most forms of fighting. She is exceptionally proficient in the fighting traditions of a variety of cultures and has become advanced with her own method of close-quarter combat, including martial arts(various kinds), boxing, and wrestling. Her ability to predict attacks when they come, cancel them out, and deal comeback blows is matched only by her ability to dish out multiple hits in one go, almost without having her opponent realize what had just happened to her. However, Alexis does require a visual of her opponent to deal such blows and she might also lose control, which happens for her from time to time and it could result in a sloppy handling of her opponent.

Enhanced Dexterity:
Alexis can precisely control her movements and muscles, making them unable to be clumsy or fumble-like. She can slip through a network of lasers, reach through dangerous, narrow tunnels, keep perfect balance, or juggle effortlessly without ever tripping or wobbling. She can also move her finger or toes effortlessly, with tendon strain no longer being a problem. Alexis can only fall over when she is physically-uprooted or pushed, though most times, like a cat, she will land on her feet. She can stand up right on most unstable surfaces, such as a moving vehicle, a collapsing building, or an earthquake. Of course, if the vehicles are moving too fast or the building is coming to fast or if the earthquake is too harsh, she will find difficulty. Alexis is also able to regain balance and bounce back to her feet quickly.

Due to Alexis’ cocky and over-confident nature, she will lose slight of control and she could fall if she’s not careful. She also runs the risk of injury if too much is done and knowing her, Alexis would surely do just that and find herself in a hospital if she doesn’t watch it.

Enhanced Endurance:
An enhanced level of endurance gives Alexis a literal low-power setting, which allows her to operate for an extended amount of time. She can hold her breath for longer periods of time, wail at someone for long periods of time, and remain calm through stressful and/or painful times. She can also tolerate extreme hunger, unbearable thirst, and strong urges to sleep. This also allows her to keep on fighting for long periods of time, though she has found that she is limited three hours of continuous and high-pressured fighting before she would start to feel a little worn out.

Enhanced Reflexes:
Alexis has drastically-enhanced reaction speed, allowing her to dodge bullets, catch files in midair, dodge and maneuver around complex attacks, catch falling objects, block detriments, and react instantaneously to what others take more time to react to. This coincides with her training as she tried to put as much focus on her reaction time as she could. Of course, having a master teach her that also helped. Some objects might be too fast for Alexis to react to and that could be the downfall for her enhanced reflexes.

Enhanced Strength:
Alexis has the incredible ability to defy weight limitations set upon the human race, but not completely break them. Dense, length, or overweight items are easy for her to move in nearly any manner. She can also crush, hit, lift, throw, or catch items of great weight. The sheer ferocity of her strength is enough to pulverize almost any object. When Alexis punches, she can crush certain objects like rocks and boulders. The same can be said about her kicks. When she stomps on the ground, she can cause a shockwave within a reasonable radius.

There is, of course, a downside to her strength. One of the more notable ones is that while Alexis is super strong, the aspect of gravity and mass still applies to her. There is a limit of how far her strength can go in terms of how heavy of weight she can lift. There’s also the fact that her limbs could be suspect to injury if she pushes too far. Muscle and nerve damage also pose a threat to her and considering she’s a cocky woman, she might not realize it before its too late.

---

Fighter’s Spirit:
Alexis had known that there was something deep inside her, like a flame of some kind. She knew it from her intense passion for fighting and for other things close and dear to her heart. She first became aware of how intense her passions were when she discovered a certain spark. The more she would tap into this certain spark, the more she became aware that it was much more than that. She knew that she had a fiery spirit unlike anybody she has ever known, even the person who taught her to control this inner-flame of hers.

Each time she would enter a fight or even feel the need to punch something, the fire would surround herself like a fiery aura, completely encasing her hand or leg or whatever. When she would punch or kick a wall or any kind of solid surface, it would burn upon contact, and crack due to the pressure of the heat. Alexis, early on, tested how hard of surfaces and how much damage she could do with this Flame Aura and from the start, concrete was the most she could do. However, the more she trained, the more powerful it got until the point where she was able to burn through flesh and bone. Of course, this required her to remain focused, which was something that she lacked early on. Even now, Alexis lacks certain focus that disables the full potency, which could be great if only she had the proper discipline.

As it stands currently, Alexis is able to maintain her Flame Aura for a duration of ten minutes with a three minute recharge before she can activate it again. With it on, she achieved feats that include flight and fire projection. When Alexis uses her Flame Aura to take flight, she can control it rather well as long as she retains a clear head, which most of the time isn't all the time. She has problems maintaining her cool, especially if she get too excited or stressed out over something. This in turn interferes with her ability to maintain a solid flight. With all of that being said, that would only happen if she found herself on the losing side or over-confident that she would win a fight. Her control, in minor cases, is relatively good and she is able to fly at moderately fast speeds(about the speed that a car going normal speeds would go). As per her training and ability of control, Alexis has tested her limits and she can only maintain continuous flight for three minutes and just as much time for recharge before she can take flight once more.

Alexis also can manipulate the flames themselves spread out like wildfire or protect her like a literal fire armor, both of which require more of her energy, which also decreases her allotted time of maintaining the aura. The way she can distribute and manipulate fire is as she would punch. Since the Flame Aura itself was a manifestation of her own inner-fire and passion of fighting, each punch and kick she does, a somewhat thin stream of fire is released. Her very soul is put into each pick and if she wishes it, she can make the fire extend several yards, but of course, that puts more strain on her reserves, so she doesn't do it. The same can be said about her defensive capabilities, which the potency of them would increase the more she puts into it. In other words, if she wants to focus on defense, she can't attack. If she wants to focus on attacking with fire, she can't defend. She can have one or the other, but not both.

Due to the protective and augmentative properties, her Flame Aura further enhances Alexis’ enhanced capabilities almost twice as much, but it also can strain her just the same amount. Her aura has also demonstrated very light healing capabilities, which only seem to heal very minor wounds, which means that any severe would require a lot of time to heal properly.

Equipment
Gloves and Boots:
The combat gloves and boots that Alexis wears might appear to be of regular materials, but they’re the farthest thing from it. They were crafted from a special material that has the feel and touch to regular old cotton, but the damage potency they hold is that on par by a finely-sharpened blade. They are reinforced by a rare metal that has no physical aspect of any kind of metal, but if met with a human body, the force that which a metal, blunt object would have, would certainly be felt at least half if Alexis were to punch or kick a human body or any body for that matter.

Name: Vos'stoorge Sabal Koman
Race: Ascended Human
Arcane Prowess: High Apprentice, Rank 4 of 348
Weight: 148 lb
Height: 5 feet 11 inches





As an Ascended Human, Vos'stoorg has intense magic coursing through him, enhancing physical ability beyond nature's limits. Intense anaerobic exercise stimulated the growth of fast twitch muscles, leaving him with the stamina of a human warrior, but his speed, agility and burst strength are greater, the mage being able to sprint at 18 MPH, superbly move on complicated terrain, such as sand, and lift a little over 360 lb. His body is also quite tough, muscle comparable in strength to strands of bamboo and bone twice as durable as a human's. Vos'stoorge also has well trained eyes, able to measure an object by just looking at it and visualize an attacks trajectory with ease, perfecting his use of the Killer Ring spell to strike with pinpoint accuracy.



As a High Apprentice, Vos'stoorge knows a few spells, and as he has chosen the path of a Mageblade, a couple use melee weapons as a channel, unable to be casted otherwise. The rest enhance either his physical ability and hand-to-hand attacks, or serve to dazzle and disorientate the opponent.



[Pulse]: casted through a weapon, this spell creates a mild pressure wave, strong enough to blow a wooden plank apart in close vicinity. Usually, it cannot injure the caster, directed outwards, but one can never be too careful.

[The Killer's Ring]: an exceptionally deadly and cunning spell, it creates energy blades that duplicate the casters strike, all of them aligned to create a circle together with the main strike.
The circle itself lies parallel to the ground (horizon), in front of the caster, and the spacing between the blades always remains equal.
The blades, including the master, have their pommels lying on the circle's perimeter as a starting point. All energy blades move independently of each other, meaning that if one is blocked, - and that surely can be done, as the energy acts as a rigid structure - the rest will continue moving. Only an interruption to the master blade will spread to the others. If any of the energy duplicates touch each other, or the master blade's aura (explained below), they dissipate in order to avoid complications.
During the casting, the weapon's blade is enveloped in a ghastly blue aura that reads its movement and translates it to the duplicates; also, an audible humming can be heard, emitted by the constant surge of energy phasing into the physical plane.
Vos'stoorge can currently cast 4 supplementary blades, creating a star formation; charging the spell, he can double the amount of blades with each turn: 8, 16, 32. As for the initial radius of the circle, its minimal value is 10 inches; the maximum - 20 feet.

[Ignition Strike]: an enhancing spell with a quite peculiar effect: 2/3 of the kinetic energy the caster exerts upon a surface with any part of his body is transforms into heat. This allows to ignite objects with multiple strikes, an Ascended Human's strength coming into play here. The spell ignores clothes on the caster and does not transform the kinetic energy exerted upon them.



[Boulder Gut]: to activate this spell after casting, the user must flex the muscle they wish to be affected. This triggers a 300% increase of its resistance to stress, negating unavoidable attacks to certain extent.



[Pepper Mist]: this spell releases a small cloud of burning chemicals, irritating the target's skin and eyes.

[Black And White]: this one acts by creating an aura around the target, which absorbs the majority of visible (to a human) electromagnetic waves, storing them inside. The target is trapped in low light environment for some time (2 turns), their pupils eventually dilating to adapt. That is when the aura releases all the built up light in a flash, harmless to anybody else - but the dilated pupils are forced to receive excess amount of light, making it blinding for the spell's target.



Daggers: Vos'stoorge carries around 6 high-grade steel daggers, two of which are thin stilettos; the rest are thick, 4 edged thrusting daggers with a nigh cubic cross-section. The stilettos measure 7 inches in length, the 4 edged daggers - 8. While both are well suited for thrusting, the stilettos are less rigid, yet create less resistance when stabbing, while the 4 edged daggers are used to punch through thick plate armor.

Danwarge: a little more versatile than the daggers, this shortsword is his main weapon. The blade measuring 20 inches in length and slightly less than 2 inches in width, has little taper towards the tip, excelling in cutting rather than thrusting. Made of a magical, deep violet alloy, it is flexible and
pleasantly light - yet none less durable than top-grade steel.

Name: Raln Freidrick
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Appearance: He has light blonde hair, the middle section of his bangs being spiky and sticking up in a fanned out manner, and the rest of his hair is slightly less then shoulder length, besides a small ponytail, with strands of hair going down on both sides of his face. He has green pupils with slightly narrow eyelids, a thin nose, and thin lips. He has a slight golden tan, a slender toned body, and is a little short in stature. He wears an outfit kind of like this, but I'll draw him soon for a more accurate depiction.

Personality: He's a poor ex-thief who still suffers a bit from kleptomania, although he tries his best to reform into a law abiding citizen. He's now able to contain himself most of the time, but if he fails he's willing to right his wrongs, even going as far as to personally apologize to everyone who he remembers stealing from (well, after some coercion by his childhood friend). He doesn't go out of his way to help just anybody, just mainly for people he feels indebted to, being guilted into doing so or if they're attractive women, as he's a bit of a ladies man who likes to show off to them. He was part of the child thief gang known as Cat's Ear up until recently, and the members still at large now pick on him for abandoning his ways and turning on his "brothers", but he doesn't seem bothered by it. He's now mostly just a carefree joker, but he does have moments where he can be serious and daring. He's stubborn about people helping him so still only lives within his means, meaning that his home is basically a run-down shack. With his personality he's often on the go anyways so is more likely to spend his money on enjoyable stuff rather then home decorating. He has a poor success with picking up women despite his decent looks and multiple attempts.

Abilities/Skills

Agility/Nimbleness/Balance- Raln can move with the agility, nimbleness, and balance at the peak of human ability. He can flip around, hand stand, somersault, etc. no problem and almost keep up with Olympic runners, more then likely outperforming them on difficult terrain.

Parkour- He's great at traversing environments without loosing speed, leaping off rooftops, climbing fences, jumping between obstacles, etc. Imagine what these people were trying to do, but he's usually far better unless he makes a careless mistake.

Observation- He can spot details for what he's looking for quickly and easily such as possible escape routes, body language, or valuable items that people might be hiding.

Thievery- He has great talent at pick pocketing, lock picking, and all around being sneaky. However, due to not taking part in such activities for a while he has become a tad rusty but is still far better then most.

Quick thinker- Not necessarily a ton of book smarts and a massive IQ, but he's of decent intelligence, great street smarts, and is quick at formulating ideas and talking his way out of sticky situations.

Combat- He's pretty decent at unarmed combat, which is mostly focused on quick precision strikes to vital areas, using their own momentum against them, or to unarm people. He's also trained himself in dagger use, which include throwing daggers, and his skills with them are almost legendary for someone of his age. His sword fighting is also improving greatly, specifically with backswords.

Other- Convincing liar, juggler, sword swallower, and some random odd jobs that he did to earn some minor income. He has actually gained many different talents that way.

Powers

All of his magical powers involves the creation of a magical mist, but it leads to a diverse move set. He cannot normally use more then one type of mist at a time. Using mist can potentially tire him out, but this usually isn't too much of a problem unless he's continually using it for a long battle.

Light Feet- Yellow mist surrounds his feet. If he has something to step on, such as a wall, he can run along it, although for liquids he has some trouble but can still be done with extra concentration. This power also makes him lighter on what he's stepping on, allowing him to, for example, walk on paper in the air without breaking through or forcing it downwards.

Mirage Form- White mist forms into a mirage of himself and anything on his possession such as swords and clothing, taking 5 seconds to complete. The mirage cannot be properly held together if it goes over 8 feet away from him and it cannot interact with physical objects. It can pretend to but it's technically just hovering around. The mirage form can absorb minor amounts of magical/nonphysical energy from an attack before being obliterated. Physically passing something through it simply breaks up the mirage. He can create more then one mirage form but the concentration required makes it difficult, ruining some of the convincingness of the mirage and obviously drains his energy twice as fast. It can still trick people who are far away or have to react too quickly to the motion of multiple blurs coming at them.

Mist Bullet- Grey mist forms into a ball in front of whatever hand (or technically his feet as well, although it would be unlikely he'd use it that way), and after a 5 second charge time it shoots forward powerfully enough to dent iron the width of average human armor. He can split up the mist into any amount of individual bullets, but they get weaker so may only bruise unarmored people if split into small enough pieces.

Clouding Mist- Light blue mist expands outward to cover a 20 square foot area, allowing him to turn "invisible" while within it. You can still see him as a blur if he's moving, but if he stands still the blur becomes minimal. You can still see any changes he makes on the environment such as shadows or footprints. This is the most exhausting power to keep activated. It lasts for only 10 seconds if not maintained as the mist dissipates, increasing the area he has to work with but lessening his invisibility.

Poison Mist- Light purple mist expands outward to cover a 20 square foot area, potentially causing slight disorientation, confusion, trouble breathing, and nausea to anyone who breathes it in for more then 5 seconds with worsening symptoms the longer you breath it. Without being maintained, the mist dissipates to harmless levels after around 30 seconds, but if you were breathing it in for about that entire time period you could lose consciousness or even die.

Eroding Mist- Brown mist swirls around him with a radius of 8 feet, hurting everyone caught inside like a bunch of really small, sharp stones are battering into them. No wind is felt but it looks like the mist is blowing around.

Green Wall- Green mist forms into a shield of up to 5 cubic feet, but the actual length, width, and height can be altered by him. Nonphysical/magical energy attacks passing through it are dispersed harmlessly through the wall if not overly powerful, and the more the attack has to pass through the more it disperses. Physical attacks get through without difficulty.

Mist Conversion- His most costly magic by far besides potentially the next one down. This allows him to turn objects that he's in direct contact with (including himself) into mist, just parts of it or it's whole. If left alone it will turn back into it's original form without any long term damage, even if used on living tissue. For example, a person can turn into a misty form yet still remain completely conscious and alive, allowing physical things to pass through them for this duration, which the time varies depending on how much energy he puts in. For every second this the object is turned to mist requires four times the charge up time. Turning something as large as himself into mist for three minutes would take all of his energy and take twelve minutes to charge. Taking damage from magical/nonphysical attacks in this form can hurt but not kill, only force them out of the mist form. Raln can magically disperse the mist that he turned the object into, causing it to not turn back to normal. Only he, or someone else with this ability, can disperse the mist in such a way.

Rainbow Mist- Upon activation of this technique he can use more then one different mist moves at once, but at a bad energy cost. If he uses two mists then each one costs double energy, if he uses three mists each one costs triple energy, etc. Four mists each using four times as much energy would cause him to pass out quite quickly. He can only use Rainbow Mist ability once a day and it lasts as long as he keeps the mist going, usually not very long due to the high energy cost.

Weaknesses- He's not able to withstand a whole lot of damage and is not particularly strong, although he is a above average for a normal human. He doesn't like getting help (unless it's from attractive girls, then it depends).

Character Equipment

Weapons-
Shimmering Lily-
This is a weapon that he stole from some fancy looking girl about his age, but she's one of the few people he hasn't managed to track down in order to return the stolen goods. Mysteriously, nobody seems to have a clue who she might have been so he's been carrying it with him all this time, wondering if he'll ever see her again. Other then that this is just a standard, albeit very well made and fancy, steel sword as far as he can tell.

Throwing daggers- He has six 12 inch iron throwing daggers. They are perhaps the most expensive things he bought for himself, but relative to "his" sword they look super cheap.

Other-

Smee-Not technically equipment, but is instead his pet. He has wings like a flying lemur but otherwise looks like a mouse. He has intelligence equivalent to a smart dog.

Lockpick Set

Bio

Raln is an orphan who discovered his talents at thievery at a young age. Not content with the poor life he joined the Cat's Ear child gang at the age of 10. He started with petty theft but escalated his crimes to stealing large amounts of riches from those who he considered didn't deserve what they had. He got to be quite famous by 14, known as the silent flash who could break into anything, including the knight's guardhouse, which was mostly just to show off. His most important theft involved what was rumored to be an ultimate potion that some twisted magician off in the woods had in his possession. After months of careful planning he executed a heist on the magician's property, who ended up catching four of the gang members in the process. However, Raln used that diversion to locate the potion, which turned out to be some weird bottle of glowing mist-like substance. Being daring, and also being on the verge of getting caught himself, he gulped the potion down. An uncontrollable mist burst out of his body, knocking himself and everyone else around him out cold. A search party arrived and everyone was arrested, the magician for illegal experimentation and the kids for having been caught red handed in their theft.

Raln was arrested for a couple of weeks but was let loose in exchange for information dealing with the gang and where all the stuff the stole was. However, his real punishment was his fellow orphan and lifelong friend Alba, who is super rough on him when he messes things up and demanded that he personally apologize to everyone who he had ever stolen from. However, after all was said and done they still retained their brother/sister-like bond. Perhaps he was traumatized by what she might do to him, and he's also had a change of heart, but he always makes sure to be a good, law abiding citizen now despite frequent temptations. The only thing he secretly kept are two things. First was the sword he stole from a mysterious girl, which he kept so that he could give it to her rather then it being simply confiscated by law enforcement, who he doesn't trust very well. Second was after his return visit to the crazy magician, finding a book mentioning the potion that he drank that caused him to experience that bizarre mist power. He has been practicing it in secret inside an old, abandoned house he managed to buy for very cheap after doing some odd jobs such as a street performer and some other things, none of which were illegal...probably.

Name
Baron Gorrendil Farenhir Leroufe-DeCroy

Alias
The Imperator Knight

Age
20

Parent(s)
Darren Von Leroufe and Larax Farenhir DeCroy

Personality
The Knight is a wilful man, strong hearted and kind hearted. He believes in freedom and life above all else. He is a down to earth man, believing in what he believes and sticking to it. When he is threatened or insulted however, Ajax is not one to hold back punches. Or bullets. He hates the corrupt and those who beat on the poor. He believes that all races are equal and doesn't like slavery. He is very proud and wise, throughout his 20 years, he has seen things. He is no doubt brave and respected by his fellow compatriots. He is a righteous follower of the principles of the Democracies and visits the church yearly for enlightenment.

Krieg

Second to come to sentience on the home world, Krieg evolved from the usual primate mammal. The Krieg are a sad race race. They were evolved on the sorry piece of land under the main continent. This land was filled with highly dangerous diseases, poisonous gas and killer inhabitants. The Krieg now wear their suits permanently, out of remembrance of the strife and war of their home land.

They are a cold, vicious race with short lives. They live for only 20 years before dying of the overwhelming amount of poisons in their bodies. Attempts to fix this has failed tremendously as the poisons are now part of their genome. This makes them the most able to adapt and overcome out of all the races on the home world. They are humanoid in shape and the only real difference they have appearance wise to the human race is that their race has purple skin and their eyes are pure white.

Their language is literally hell. A conglomerate of words that really do not fit together, words that mean the same but are said in specific sentences, words that are supposed to be whole paragraphs worth of text, it is a translators nightmare.

Appearance
Ajax is one of military descent, that being presented in the way that he dresses and looks. He is 6'7 and has a swimmers build, buff but more streamlined instead of being a muscle monster. He has sky blue hair, combed back of course, and has eyes as white as the clouds in the sky. He has a small goatee and his head is a little slim. His face is wrinkled and callous, because of his age and because of the horrors that he has seen. Ajax is one of the few Krieg to leave his face bare. His face is left to the outside and is tattooed with the spread winged falcon, the insignia of the Democracies. Coupled with the usual Krieg suit, he is suited up with a heavy, bulletproof trench coat. It bears his insignias, medals and the words "KRIEG" in gothic writing on his back. He has a Storage Displacement Chamber, an experimental piece of technology, inserted into his right wrist. It is not visible to the naked eye but whenever he needs to equip himself with his weapons, his whole arm glows a bright blue. He still has the signature Krieg mask, only clipped to his trench coat.

Powers
Unfortunately for the Krieg, he does not have any magic space wizardy powers. He is just a normal alien who fights to survive and shoots well to boot. The Baron does have a strong willpower for he is the most wisest in the Democracies. He does know Ta'k Fu, the only martial art that has really been kept alive in this day and age. It is standard across the whole of the Democracies Army Corps and is a mixture of Eskrima, Muay Thai and Krav Maga in our world. It is the only martial art that is practised, so the Baron mastered it. Almost perfected it. He wanted to aim for excellence, so excellence he did.

Equipment
Slavery's Redemption more commonly known as the "45. Cal Rifle" is the standard Rifle of the Peacekeeping Forces and is the Barons most loved and personal weapon. With a standard magazine holding 20 rounds, each of which is lethal enough to kill a man with one shot. It only has one mode and that is semi-automatic. It is a compact, lightweight rifle that when given to the Heavy Troopers, can actually be duel wielded. It's compact design is for urban combat, which is the specialty of the Templars that use it. The Baron customised his with a holographic scope with thermal imaging, a silencer, a bayonet and an underslung grenade launcher. The words Slavery's Redemption is etched into the rifle, along with scratch marks from the Ly'Nus Campaign and the First Contact War.

Salvation more commonly known as the "KMG" and is the Baron's secondary. This is another new piece of technology from the long line of Karasniko LMG's. The mechanism is similar to the Death Ray except that it spits bullet like laser rounds with. Instead of a continuous stream of las, it fires spits of it. This means more control of where the las goes and if it's destructive power is used effectively. The KMG is much heavier than the rest of the Peacekeeping arsenal. It can only be used by the Heavy Troops. The Baron has customised his with a chainsaw attachment and a holo sight scope. The words Salvation is written on the side of the gun, along with similar scratch marks as Redemption.

Fay'Ran Jik pattern Standard Disassembling Beam Pistol more commonly known as "Death Ray" is a new line of weapon of the Fay'Ran Jik pattern. Since the development of AI and the founding of "Smart Metal" in the Lin'Ar system, a new generation of weapons have been created. This pistol has a core in the back of the weapon that "disassembles" the weapon while firing, cooling the weapon at the same time. It is a very complicated mechanism and only scientists and engineers can understand it. It fires a continuous beam of laser, kind of accurate and is devastating in the battlefield. It also melts most metals, therefore effective against Tanks and such. The Baron has gotten a new one since he wrecked his old Death Ray. He has not named this one yet.

His Presidency's Mighty Blade more commonly known as the "Gladius" is the standard melee weapon of the Democracies Military and is as loved by Ajax as the Redemption. Rugged, reliable and the longevity of a Millenia, it has served the Democracies since the day of it's founding, almost 750 years ago. Made from the golden metal called Sigma which is commonly found in vast asteroid fields and ore planets. You sharpen a refined piece of this metal and it will become the sharpest, lightest and reliable blade in Democracies history. Mighty was given to him by his dying father, on the battlefield of Mo'Zaa. It shines with a golden shine and looks as new as a sword not one day old.

His Presidency's Powerful Scupythe more commonly known as the "Ta'Ur Kut Scythe", is the trophy weapon of every high ranking officer in the Democracies Military forces. Given to them when they reach Templar Officer or Flag Bearer, this weapon is not only ornamental. Made from the same metallurgy of a fighter's armour, this weapon is kept and treated as a trophy by most officers but still use it in battle. It kills most in one swipe and is dangerous in the melee that most Templars enjoy. The Scythe is duel wielded with Mighty of the situation is indeed dire.
