Name: Violin

Age: Adult

Species: Namekian

Attribute

Healing and Ki Manipulation-while his healing abilities make him one of the team’s primary field medics, Violin trains himself in ki manipulation and martial arts constantly in order to better protect himself and his allies.

Personality & Appearance

The most noticeable thing about Violin's appearance-at least to anyone who might be able to recognize it-is his striking similarity to his creator and father, the planetary conqueror known as Lord Slug. While the resemblance is not absolute, Violin is similar enough to easily pass for a younger version of Lord Slug unless under extremely close scrutiny.

While he’ll change clothes to suit the situation, Violin often wears a dark green hooded and face-concealing cloak mainly to hide his resemblance to the often hated and feared Lord Slug although he also wears it because he likes the look of it though he would never admit it. Apart from the hooded cloak he wears the brown pointed shoes common to most Namekians and a weighted belt or waistwrap worn mainly for training purposes.

Personality-wise Violin considers himself a healer and guardian of the innocent first and a warrior second despite his skill at fighting. In fact as a deserter from Lord Slug’s forces, he detests having to take up violence and much prefers his role as a doctor to his fellow ISF members though, he still trains to retain his skills. Since he lost his only other 'family' when he abandoned the psychotic Slug, Violin considers the ISF to be a substitute family of sorts and primarily volunteered to try to ensure that the so-called suicide mission had a slightly higher survival rate than it otherwise would. His other motivations have more to do with preventing the sort of large-scale destruction that the PTO and Freeza’s organization are capable of wreaking, having served under a tyrannical planet conqueror himself and learned firsthand of the atrocities such men are capable of committing.

Weaponry & Equipment

Violin does not have much in the way of equipment, though as part of his training his cloak and a belt wrapped around his waist are both extremely heavy so that even his everyday activities are a part of strengthening himself. Other than that, he’s familiar enough with various kinds of medical equipment and medical/surgical treatments requiring them throughout the galaxy though he usually carries a more portable field surgery and treatment kit instead.

Abilities & Techniques

Healing powers-Violin can heal living beings of even things that would otherwise be fatal wounds though the more severe the wounds the more time and energy it takes for him to heal the being in question. He needs to be able to touch the being he wants to effect in order to heal them and due to the concentration required for healing he is often vulnerable to attack during this time.

Namekian Physiology-As a Namekian, Violin’s body has a number of unusual physical properties. Noticeably he is capable of regenerating his body so long as his head is intact and he has enough energy and focus to do so. His limbs are also capable of stretching to extreme lengths and with enough focus he can even grow to giant size. His hearing is also incredibly sensitive to an almost supernatural degree, and he can sense the nature of the hearts or intentions of others if he focuses on them.

Scalpel Overdrive-A technique Violin often uses if a scalpel isn't at hand involving solidifying a small blade out of ki. However in combat he is capable of extending it much farther out into a sort of energy sword enveloping his arm and extending further outward. The flaw is of course that the technique is primarily one for close combat.

Energy Shield-A shield of ki capable of blocking smaller energy attacks, though if Violin pours more ki into it it can hold up against larger and larger techniques and/or increase in size to protect people nearby him. Because of his generally nonviolent nature this is one of the techniques he's trained with most heavily since leaving Lord Slug's service.

'ssault Cannon-Violin's Ultimate technique when he was in service to Lord Slug, he presses both palms together until they almost touch and then charges energy between them, condensing it more and more before firing it out in a single beam of white energy. The longer he's able to charge and condense the energy the stronger the resulting beam will be.

Backstory

Violin was once a top soldier in the service of Lord Slug, the Namekian planetary conqueror. In fact he was specifically created by Lord Slug to help lead and maintain the well-being of his troops. Though Violin was a competent warrior, the cruelty his service to the Super Namekian required of him began to sicken him as the years passed. It seemed that there was no end to his master’s desire for conquest, that they would turn world after world into Planet Cruisers more out of a blind lust for destruction than for any truly useful purpose. As he slowly came to the realization that Lord Slug was more than likely just insane and his brothers-in-arms were too blind to see it, he began planning his eventual escape.

It wasn’t easy for Violin to find opportunities to break free, as his combination of personal strength and healing powers meant that he was doubly valuable for the planet-conquering soldiers of Lord Slug’s crew and was rarely kept far from the frontline fighting at any time. However, fate or luck eventually intervened and during one attempt at planetary conquest Slug’s forces were successfully violently repulsed. As a result Violin was able to stay behind during Lord Slug’s second attempt at a Planet Cruiser-making foray under the guise of healing the wounds his fellow soldiers had sustained during their last failed attack. Seizing on the moment, he stole a smaller ship and deserted from Lord Slug’s army, and at first just to keep from being killed, pleaded with the ISF for asylum in exchange for his full cooperation and all of the information he had on Lord Slug’s operations.

Gradually Violin became trusted enough to begin using his healing abilities to aid the ISF. He found that though he no longer had the desire to fight, he still enjoyed healing others and made it his mission to serve as a medic for the ISF to make up for some of the evil he had caused in his past. Over time he came to terms with his past and moved back into the field on occasion, though he remained primarily a member of the Green Sector of the ISF.
