Name: Yang
Age: 17
Sex: Male
Race: Earthling (Half-Saiyan)
Appearance:Personality:Usually a nice enough kid, and well-mannered to boot. Also has a bit of a pacifist streak, almost always attempting to resolve conflicts in a non-violent way as opposed to picking fights. According to him, his study of martial arts was for the purpose of finding inner balance and peace, him actually having no interest or desire to get stronger especially if its for no reason other than its own sake.
Power Level: 400, but that seems to fluctuate depending on his emotional state.
Abilities:Zenkai Boost ~ Despite an admirable attempt at pacifism, Yang is still half-Saiyan. This side of himself allows him to grow stronger after recovering from near-fatal injury and battle fatigue. Any full-blooded Saiyan will immediately notice, however, that the boost itself appears to be watered down a bit compared to the boost full-blooded Saiyans receive.
Saiyan Rage ~ This trait appears to be unique to halfbreeds like Yang. If pushed too far, he can snap and seemingly skyrocket his power level for a very short time until his emotions have calmed down again. Supposedly this has something to do with mixing Saiyan strength with Human emotion, but the true origin and nature of this ability is largely unknown.
Transformations: None for now.
Techniques:Shougekiha! ~ Otherwise known as the Explosive Wave, it's a simple technique where the user unleashes explosive Ki in all directions for a short radius. It's ideal for when one is surrounded by multiple opponents in close range.
Renzoku Kikoudan! ~ A barrage of Ki bullets fired rapidly at the target.
Chou Ryuuken! ~ Also known as the Super Dragon Fist, it is a simple-yet-powerful three hit combo while the fist is charged with Ki. The final hit unleashes the Ki in the shape of a chomping dragon's head, which was where the technique's name came from.
Chou Tenkuu Pekeji Ken! ~ Also known as Super Cross Arm Dive. Having learned the original variation from Nam, Yang invented this variation by utilizing flight to gain more height, while also infusing his arms with Ki to maximize the impact and damage of the hit should it connect.
History:About 18 years ago, a mysterious object crashed onto the Earth. The location was remote, however, out in the desert where few would notice it and fewer still would spread word. It was spherical in shape, appeared to move like a vessel of sorts. But it was also heavily damaged, as if it had been shot out of the sky in some great battle out in space. The occupant, a man with a tail, sat unconscious and bloodied, his alien armor cracked and damaged, whether from the crash or some previous battle none could say. The man would have died that night, but by a chance a young woman from a nearby village was brave enough to go near the site and discovered the injured man. She dragged him back to the village where she and her elder brother nursed the stranger back to the health.
This took time, time the stranger used to ask questions of the girl who rescued him. He questioned why she would do such a thing for someone who could just as well have been a threat to her. Her response surprised him, she said that she shouldn't need a reason to help someone in need, doing such should just be the natural response. As the man healed, he talked with the girl some more. He told of her of his origins, and of his proud warrior race. As the village had no advanced medicine or machines, the healing took several weeks, months even. And during that time the Saiyan man and Earthling woman developed feelings for one another. Just as he was fully healed, they shared a single night of passion. After that night, the Saiyan spent a short time repairing his vessel, saying that he needed a deliver an important message to his home planet and its King. Before he left, however, the Saiyan named Orka promised that after fulfilling this mission he would find his way back to Earth and reunite with the girl. He never returned.
But from that one night spent with Orka, the girl - Yin, gave birth to a baby boy. She named her son Yang, and she and the rest of the village quickly noticed that the boy had been born with a tail much like his father's. But then the boy saw his first full moon and transformed into a massive beast that went on a rampage. Fortunately, Yin's brother was a prominent martial artist and was able to stop the monster by cutting off its tail. But the damage had been done, and in the chaos of the attack the boy's own mother had been a casualty of his transformation. There was debate about what to do with the boy, but Yin's brother - named Nam, refused to throw the child out under any circumstances. After all, he was at that moment the only family the boy had left. And so the village kept the boy, Nam raising him and even training him in the martial arts. Yang's Saiyan blood allowed him to quickly surpass his uncle but the youth never ceased to have nothing but the utmost love and respect for the man who was not only his master but his father figure as well.
Now, at age 17, Yang has learned the truth of his origins. While out training outside the village, he stumbled upon the place where his father's ship crashed. He was told everything, everything except for the truth of his mother's death, even Nam couldn't bear to reveal such a bitter truth to the boy. Yang expressed interest in seeking out his father, and Nam allowed him to leave. So with nothing but the clothes on his back and an old photo taken of his father and mother the morning he left for his home planet, Yang set out to find someone, anyone, who could tell him about the tailed man in the picture.
