Lincoln 'Linc' Caliber
: Male.
Age: Nineteen.
Appearance: Linc is almost always seen wearing a thick black headband with strands of wispy silver-gray hair poking out over a pair of slits where pale brown eyes sit accompanied by a large roguish grin. A jacket or hoodie of some sort always with はくしょん
(Hakushon 'lit. Achoo') stitched down the back. A plain or buttoned shirt in either white or a different shade of brown over a light gray undershirt with plain black slacks tucked neatly into a pair of ankle-high black combat boots.
Race/Species: Demon Weapon
Classification: Autonomous Weapons
Soul Colour & Traits:
Pale Goldenrod - A bomb-shaped soul wearing a mischievous smirk, wrapped by a thick band across the forehead allowing a few wispy bits of what appears to be hair fan out above the thin eyes. A long fuse stems up from the top head which has been noted to shrink with his temper.
Weapon Form: Artillery (Cannon)
Abilities:
- Autonomous Weapon - Being such a powerful weapon type and displaying a load of prowess on his own, Lincoln is one of few Demon weapons who lack the need for a Meister nearby. By transforming his limbs into cannon barrels, Lincoln can unleash a chain of low powered blasts (typically blue or white in color) or alternatively he can charge up his attacks for more precise and destructive force (which radiates a golden glow similar to sunlight).
- Stationary Weapon - An uncommon trait in some weapons where they take the form of a completely stationary weapon when fully transformed. In Lincoln's case he takes the form of a "howitzer" type cannon which allows him to attack a target far away with a high level of destructive power. Meisters can empower his blasts to increase his range, accuracy and destructive force.
- Tough - Lincoln is tough. He's not the biggest or the strongest one but he is the last to give up and admit defeat. Call it whatever you'd like; determination, arrogance or old fashion grit but this boy lacks an off switch.
Weaknesses:
- Reload - Although Lincoln can fight for a long time and has a good amount of endurance, his abilities require him time to 'reload' his which leaves him quite vulnerable.
- Allergies - For some reason Lincoln constantly has a stuffy/runny nose, a slight cough and an occasional sneeze as if he is plagued with a constant sickness. Unable to figure out his exact allergy or how to medicate it, he is stuck constantly suffering. These symptoms appears to fade the more his bad temper shows.
- Flippant - Lacks the ability to be serious and direct his full attention to a task at hand. This often leaves him exposed or caught with his pants down.
- Foolish - Is known to be the type that will "take the bait" and allows himself to be provoked into bad situations.
- Volatile - Once Lincoln's fuse is ignited he becomes rash, arrogant and self-destructive. Anything that isn't with him entirely becomes another obstacle to blow through.
- Maverick - His unpredictable nature makes it difficult to work well with others, views himself as stronger and more capable alone.
Brief History: If you asked where Lincoln was born, he would tell you a large city beside a beautiful river sometime when the moon was out. How he knows this and whether it is the truth or not is unclear entirely. The first record of Lincoln that can be corroborated is the night he was found on the steps of the
South Hilltop Orphanage, an ancient business run by an even more ancient older woman who Lincoln only recalls ever calling 'The Madam'. Lincoln and the other children were never allowed to leave the building at all, they were even schooled from within by the Madam herself. Without a solid peer group around him Lincoln became a withdrawn and quiet child, often found reading books about animals or the world around him. Occasionally the young silver haired boy bore the brunt of tormenting by a pair of older kids, brothers who would tell Lincoln they witnessed squirrels placing him on the stairs of the orphanage or that his mother and father were the same person and they were ashamed of the thing they made.
When Lincoln was ten, a group of ghouls invaded the orphanage at night with the intent to devour the helpless children inside. Young Lincoln had managed to grab a group of the younger children and hide them in a bathroom with himself. Unknown at the time, these ghouls tracked prey with the smell of fear and located the children. Fueled by fear and a will to protect the children, Lincoln's arm transformed into a small cannon. Using this new ability he managed to fend off the ghouls but found his newly discovered ability was too underdeveloped to kill them. The ghouls eventually overcame him and continued devouring the children before his eyes. Fighting tooth and nail Lincoln tried to save who he could until a nearby Meister arrived and dispatched the ghouls. The Meister was sickened by what he witnessed but found himself impressed with the sheer desire to fight within this child who displayed Demon Weapon traits. After contacting the DWMA, Lincoln was officially adopted by the academy where he created his own surname, Caliber. As he continued through the DWMA, he found it increasingly more difficult to find anyone to work with opting instead to fight by himself.
Allocated Contract:
The Sack Man - Lincoln is currently investigating alleged sightings from multiple regions of a man carrying a large black sack with some claims of children's cries emanating from the sack. Although most trails have gone cold, a recent lead from South America has Lincoln headed en route to a small mining village located along a river.
