He likes to kid and boast a bit but he more often then not lives up to his boasts. He likes to laugh and berate interests of those he likes, partially jokingly but really he's just not afraid to say what's on his mind. His cool level headedness helps him deal with generally extreme or disconcerting situations in a fairly calm fashion. Despite the cool facade he puts up he does genuinely care about his friends and will always do what he thinks is best to help them, even if that's nothing at all. While he often remains totally calm certain things can put him over the edge angry, though usually only in short bursts. Backstory Dave had a strange upbringing. He was found as a baby by his adoptive brother/father, "Bro" and taken in. One of the strangest parts of the upbringing was his brother seeming obsession with puppets that seems to, despite how much he tries to hide it, scare Dave. Bro tried to raise Dave to be able to fight, teaching him the sword fighting and apparently going as far as to ambush him in the middle of the night when Dave went to use the washroom. He less then ordinary upbringing worked of course because Dave is a damn badass with the flips and sword tricks. Due to the attacks and such he tended to spend a lot of time in his room talking to his best friends over the internet, which eventually led to a long quest that would take entirely long to explain. Long story short Dave got some powers involving time and that's all I can explain without spoilers. Equipment He always keeps his katana on him, never know when you might need to slash something up. Physical Traits Very speedy and agile. Able to easily do multiple flips mid-air, and a variety of other acrobatic/ ninja-like moves. Super Abilities Ability to control time (He's reluctant to use this and mess up time and such and since it's a pretty big ability I'll cut it back to going back or forwards a limited short time.) Weakness and Fear His fear of messing up and screwing over those he cares about for one. Another would be his general dislike and anxiety of puppets caused by his bro. **Other** Anything that needs improving tell me. [/center]
