BACKSTORY & MOTIVATION Akash was born in Pabna, Bangladesh to Farabi and Safina Rahman. He was born with a birth defect called polymelia or hydra syndrome, and would have been treated as such if he had been born anywhere else. In Bangladesh, his birth was treated as a miracle and he was believed to be a god. Word spread of the unusual birth all across South Asia, and the Rahmans were visited by thousands of Hindus from Nepal, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, etc. His birth made world television. Hundreds of reporters were on the scene recording the masses of people who were bowing to a mutant baby that most doctors and Westerners believed wouldn’t live to two-years-old—and they were proven wrong. The Hindus lavished the Rahmans with gifts from fruit, cloth, money, etc. Whatever would allow them to be able to touch the child and pray in his presence. Because of this phenomena, Akash grew up rather spoiled with wealth and food that led to him becoming big and strong. He never stayed around his family’s mansion. Instead, he ventured out regularly, traveling from one country to the next to the pleasure of the people. Akash always had the desire to learn. He liked learning about different cultures and learning about the life that existed outside of being revered as a god.
Akash travelled through India and nearing the border of Pakistan, he was met with several atrocities. Terrorists were gunning down a village in the Rajasthan province and stealing their women, children, and food. For having been raised mostly sheltered, the massacre was a nightmare that stirred a great wrath within him. Akash’s third eye opened when he was 18-years-old and since that day, he has been able to see the world in an other-worldly perspective. He could see Ki, and his own Ki gushed within him like a great flood. Akash thwarted the terrorists, forcing them to flee back across the border with what little manpower they had left. Even though the village was once again safe, such evil bothered him. The entire time he was living pretty at home, this evil existed. He almost couldn’t forgive himself.
The fight allowed Akash to realize a few of his handicaps, and if he planned on protecting South Asia, then he needed to grow stronger. He returned to his home in Bangladesh and isolated himself from the people who worshipped him. Akash trained his body and his mind, meditating to try and better understand the power that had awakened him and what his eyes now saw. His mother, Safina, attempted to soothe her son’s troubled mind with her wisdom. She told him how it was impossible to save everyone and how he shouldn’t trouble himself with trying to find a solution to do so. He could only protect who and what the gods brought to him to protect.
One day, the son of the thwarted terrorists, Umair Abbasi, tracked Akash back to his residents. He called the giant into the streets in challenge, his body rigged with explosives. Akash met the man in the streets and was disturbed that he was willing to give his own life to ensure that the false South Asian god be destroyed. While Akash knew he had unexplained powers, he knew he was no god. If he had truly been a god, he believed that he would have been able to stop humanity’s suffering. He was but a man and perhaps a mutant, and he would not allow Abbasi to endanger his family or his people. Akash hypnotized Abbasi, and Abbasi walked far from Pabna into a field where he could harm no one but crops and self-detonated there. While the Pabna people were overjoyed, Akash became fearful of his family. He could no longer reside with them for the blood he had spilled stained his hands and had left a trail for evil to forever follow him.
Akash said goodbye to his parents and became a Nomad to forever wander the world, protecting the weak, protecting those who the gods have put before him.
FIGHTING STYLE When Akash is not using his swords, the man is a grappler and no fighter would want to be grappled by him. His numerous arms a fighter’s worst nightmare and he will use them to not only pound an opponent into mush, but to break some limbs. Akash is the most polite, ruthless warrior anyone would ever meet, but his ruthlessness is only reserved for those who he feels are truly evil. Akash will often hold back on those he deems to be good or innocent, and by holding back, I mean not outright killing them. Akash knows how to shatter every bone in a fighter’s body, and he can do so the long way or the immediate way with a nice big hug from each of his arms. His third eye allows him to see in all directions. He can see the aura of ki surrounding every living being and can estimate by how large it is, how strong his opponent will be. Akash’s movements are slower than the lighter and more limber fighters, but his arms are not slow. His third eye allows him to see those enemies who try to sneak up behind him, and thus gives him the opportunity to anticipate. With three eyes his mental perception is highly advanced to a psychic level where he can watch the angle of a blade, the twist in a fist, and the aim of a gun and anticipate the following action. This increased mental power allows him to also delve into the conscious of those who are mentally defenseless and hypnotize them to do what he pleases, such as walk closer to him if they were dancing out of his reach. Akash’s butterfly swords when in his hands are like shredders. They swing so fast that they can cleave through a tree or a street lamp. Only a swordsman with inhuman dexterity would be able to keep up with the numerous and rapid swings of his blades.
SPECIAL MOVES & TECHNIQUES ॐ Tree Stance (Counter)A stance that Akash takes and while in this stance, his arms will splay like the boughs of a tree. Fighters confused by the yoga stance may only see a wide-open opportunity to attack. The tree is Akash's counter stance. After he counters an opponent, the opponent may find him or herself at risk of being grabbed.
ॐ Sword DanceRapidly swinging his swords creates a blur of razor-sharp steel. Akash will attack his enemies with a whirlwind of blades that will shred anything within their reach. Akash also uses Sword Dance to deflect incoming projectiles.
ॐ Fire BreatherAkash reaches deep within himself and gathers his ki. His chest swells and nostrils flare, inhaling the air around him and from his mouth he breathes a stream of fiery ki. The ki expands in a 5 meter cone in front of him and can reach 10 meters. The sweltering flames are hot enough to melt a vehicle into a blob of malformed glass and metal.
ॐ Grapple: Crushing EmbraceAkash grabs an unfortunate opponent and crosses his numerous arms about him or her. He will proceed to constrict the opponent, crushing them in an embrace until their every bone has cracked.
ॐ Grapple: Bone BreakAkash grabs an unfortunate opponent and all six of his arms grab a part of him or her. His lower limbs grab the legs, his second pair the arms, and his upper limbs the head. Simultaneously, his hands snap and twist the opponent’s limbs before dropping their limp body on the floor.
ॐ Grapple: Face HammerAkash grabs an unfortunate opponent and holds them with his middle and lower hands. His upper arms proceed to hammer the opponent’s face with his massive fists. Akash will pound the enemy’s face six times before he releases him or her, letting them drop upon the ground.
ॐ Lotus StanceFor opponents smaller than him, Akash will sit on the ground with his legs crossed, in a lotus stance. He will then proceed to fight in that position.
ॐ Lotus KickWhile in the lotus stance, Akash will raise his body on his lower limbs and charge forward on his hands. He will then thrust out either of his feet in a strong kick.
ॐ Round LotusWhile in the lotus stance, Akash will raise his body using his lower limbs. His two sets of arms will extend with his butterfly blades and he will proceed to spin toward his enemy.
SUPER MOVES ॐ Tree of ShaktiAkash will perform the tree pose, close his eyes, and quietly utter a mantra in Bengali. A vision of Shakti will appear above Akash and the fighter who happened to gaze upon her will find their mind shattered by her divine presence.
ॐ Fires of AgniSimilar to Fire Breather except more powerful. If Akash is in a room or chamber, the flames will seek to fill its entire volume in an inferno. If in an infinite space (basically outdoors), the flames will expand in an even greater cone, 25 meters in diameter for 30 yards in length.
WEAKNESSES & LIMITS Akash’s main weakness is his back for it is difficult to turn around in time with how large and slow he is. While his third eye helps him get a heads up, he is still vulnerable there. He does not do too well with really short or swift opponents for they are extremely low to the ground or difficult to keep up with if they are darting all over the place. Short fighters would require him to resort to his lotus stance and in that stance he isn’t too mobile. He tries to compensate the lack of mobility by lifting himself on his hands, but then it costs him two of his arms. He is not only too large for certain situations, but he is also too heavy. Areas with thin ice, brittle surfaces, or cramped and narrow spaces are not ideal terrains for him to fight in. He needs room to fight effectively. Fighters with strong mental fortitude can resist his hypnosis and even his Tree of Shakti for Tree of Shakti was meant to shatter weak minds. Weak minds are defined by those characters who lack self-control and who struggle with their own ki.
Akash knows how to cook Bengali cuisine. While on his journey, he often missed certain meals, so he learned to cook his favorite dishes. His cooking is full of spice and flavor. It can nourish a Nomad’s mind and body.
