Bio

You can call me DC.

Been roleplaying about 9+ years now. Trying different websites out to see what happens, so, if I happen to have encountered you before, don't be afraid to give a shout out.

I work nights and am usually up for most hours of the day. Because of that, I'm often running on no sleep, so that's a thing.

Want to know more? Just ask.

So like, would it be like a double variation? Like a "Volatile Distortionist"?

I thought it'd fit more into the architect category, but I'm guessing you're categorizing that as being more Green Lantern like abilities specifically?
I was more so referring to type but learning how you would classify it helps too.

I'm kinda repurposing/redesigning a character, but it'd be kind of a splicing of both electricity and magnetism. The list as it would appear in the WIP sheet looks like this:

Edited: I'mma drop one.

How would you describe an electromagnetic manipulator that inadvertantly turned himself into a cyborg?

Characterization


Appearance

Despite his unassuming demeanor, Rai's appearance is rather striking. Rai is 5'8 with a muscular build, often making him appear intimidating for his age. Scars adorn his body through his rigorous training, mistakes, and penance. His topsoil brown hair is chin length, curly, and tapered up on the sides. His eyes are a brownish hazel. What seems to be the most distinctive feature, though, is that his skin not only takes the darker color of his mother, but unevenly mixed about his body are bright patches reminiscent to his father's. This rare condition is often the target of ridicule by his grandparents due to genetic defiance to tradition of the family being unified, even down to appearance.

When he was younger he covered it up, his hands, feet, and even over his face with masks. However after getting his nickname from his father, he's been more confident in the last year. Rai still, out of respect, covers most of his skin, but he doesn't wear masks anymore. His clothing varies, but is typically green, as is often worn by those of his clan.

Personality

Rai was raised to have the three Cs: Calm, Critical, and Confident. This essentially gives him a reserved or laid back aura that follows him around, often putting off the impression that he doesn’t take things seriously or that he simply doesn’t care. Though, the truth is, he’s very determined in focusing his best efforts in whatever task he puts his mind to. One of his most defining traits is his stubbornness, unwilling to easily give up on the things he believes in. Rai strives to prove that he belongs. To maintain the honor that his family name implicates as descendents of the Great Ryu Lee.

Those who pay close attention, know him as a Ninja of Iron Will.

When in public or even simply around those of his clan, excluding his father of course, he is more formal. The young man is fully aware of how much they don’t really like him despite their shared blood. Rai’s had to grow up with chiding words, exclusion, and overall general distance from them and other people. With always having to deal with the frustrations of his situation, he is very resilient to most verbal assaults. One could say those factors force him to remain humble; to keep his head down and only speak when spoken to. In essence, his actions typically speak louder than his words.

With those closer to him however, Rai is more willing to let emotion show. That he has a sense of humor, an adventurous spirit, and a fair share of kindness for others. He has a bit of a mischievous side as well.


Origin Story
Rai Lee was born to Saw Lee and Asari. In his first year of life, his mother Asoui had left Rai in Konoha with Saw, presumably due to the scandalous nature of their relationship. With those of the clan seeing his mother as a deserter and her son in turn an outsider, it ultimately came down to his father speaking up for and claiming Rai as his son. With his father being the clan head, there was no real way to dispute it.

Still, this didn’t stop his family, especially his grandparents, from looking down on him. Other people looked at him strangely because of his multicolored skin. Even for a time, his own father was distant to him. Whenever Rai asked about his mother, there was a negative tone that stemmed from the vague answers to his questions. Easily picking up that something bad had happened, he eventually stopped asking about it.

Rai proved to be a little disappointing to some in his training to become a shinobi. On one hand, he was typically stronger and faster than the kids his own age group. This made taijutsu come more easily for him. On the other hand, though, he had seemingly no talent in the other processes needed to pass certain exams; even for the reputation for a Lee. His grandparents were quick to pin him as a failure, but his father didn’t give up on him. Despite Saw’s initial distance, they grew closer and bonded through his shinobi training. With trial, error, and perseverance, Rai managed to pass and move on.

During his time in the academy was when it was believed that his father had died when performing a secret shinobi mission. Fortunately enough though, his father did survive his final mission, though, due to spinal injury, he was severely crippled. With medical aid, he could walk again, but his compromised mobility forced resignation from actively serving in the shinobi business. Although somewhat disheartened, Rai was more grateful that he came home.

He lashed out during his father’s supposed death, and as it turned out, he naturally radiated lightning chakra. With his newly found abilities, his raw potential gained a sharp incline. In tandem with Saw’s grooming, Rai was quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with despite his lack other ninjutsu forms. Upon passing the genin exams, Saw had given him a gift; a book that his mother had left behind. Looking into it initially, it seemed to be his mother’s journal of sorts in how she learned to control and master her inner lightning.

For most of the past year, he had been studying the book as a guide, trying to glean what he could from it to make his abilities stronger. He found from her comments relating to her past situations that in his journey of growing up so far, his struggles were like Asari’s. Rai hadn’t seen his mother since he was too young to fully remember. Still, he held onto an anxious hope that perhaps one day, he could finally find her…

If she was still alive.

Triple T

Talents

Taijutsu
This is the Lee Clan’s trademark being the Strong-Fist style of Taijutsu. As his family line down the generations has gotten weaker in ninjutsu, they have had to rely on their physical condition to keep up with other shinobi. Being trained in it from youth, made it his passion. Considering the physical demands of the style, Rai naturally became much stronger, faster, and more durable than most genin to chunin level opponents. It has gotten to a point where he needs more advanced opponents than those of his own class in order to properly grow his skills.

Navigation
Rai is fairly good at reading maps and gaining a sense of direction when he’s lost. This is due to his often being in the forest, his father giving him some nature survival tips, and studying, to be frank.

Medical Knowledge
Rai possesses deceptively in-depth knowledge of human anatomy and how the body typically works when unenhanced by chakra. This is, in part, due to his training in how to inflict the most damage on his opponents or the quickest ways to disable them. However, this also comes from a subconscious obsession forming in regards to his father’s injury; hoping to restore him one day.

Historical Knowledge
With his family being fairly heavily ruled in tradition, Rai has been essentially forced to study and know of the past. His ancestry, notable events, and of course, traditions, are all things that he has a good grasp on. This broadens his view of things in ways that a good many sharing his age either don’t care about, or simply don’t know. In his eyes, there are some traditional practices that he likes and others needing adjustment or exclusion from the rapidly changing world.

Misc

As a tradition mandates for Lee clan warriors, Rai often wears weighted clothing to learn endurance, while also maximizing his strength and speed. It can be of hindrance however, as he isn't used to his own full strength and speed without them.

The small notebook that he carries around contains quotes and information that he believes will be useful, as well as drawings of what he observes.
Hey, so, this is gonna be new to the few people I know here, but I'm gonna just explain later:

Would you my username be changed to "DClassified"?



Darkness. Utter darkness that Xiao could no longer see through. Dreaming? It had been a while since he did that. It was likely because he was more comfortable in the outside world. Or at least the part of it natural to the planet in which they lived. Over the years of residing in Cloud’s Reach, he found that he was more at peace with himself here rather than in the building. It was why he was laid up in this tree in the courtyard. He had often slept here instead of in the dorm room provided for him. Though, temperatures at night more recently, had changed his mind.

Xiao was reclined in a branch toward the top of the tree, near one of the watchtowers. That way he could feel the comforting heat of the sun occasionally peeking through the heavy winter clouds. It was nice and quiet....maybe a little too quiet.

There was the question of wondering what he was doing before he got here, but waking up was bringing memories back quickly. He was a tutor to other students in the realm of physical combat, as it was more or less his strong suit. His job was to teach them how to learn about themselves more from it, as well as to defend themselves, just as Master had taught him. It was what he was doing earlier up until about an hour ago. Though he felt like needed his meditation time...or nap time, whichever came first.

Besides, there was always a mess among some of the teenagers socially. The rumors and 'backstabbing' happened, the drama that came with adolescent mercenaries. This business with the job slowness didn’t help.

In his own experience, he had maybe a year of so of that under his belt before his abilities experienced a monumental shift. After that, some looked at him differently, like he was a strange person. Of course he did get taller, and his hair grew longer, and his ears grew somewhat pointed...and sometimes his eyes glowed in the dark. However, he didn't pay much attention anymore. His new masters told him not to indulge those ones and to continue on in learning.

Xiao decided that maybe it was time that he actually did something other than sitting. There were many students, but the intensity of the sun above implied sometime near afternoon, which meant that he couldn't bother them. It was around the end of lunch time and he had to wait until they were finished. You put egg shells in a kid's sandwich one time and you never hear the end of it! Still, he didn't want to just sit here bored like this....

A feeling of slight change in wind direction met his skin. He turned his head towards the east, where the gust was going. It was always about this time that it switched in direction, and his tail flicked freely in the breeze. One picks up on little things like that when--

Wait...his tail was holding something when he went to sleep…The mask! Xiao’s eyes jolted open and he looked around, then down. All the way down. Toward the bottom of the tree, on a low hanging branch, was a white kabuki mask hanging by the strap. It was very reminiscent of his best buddy Rin’s. Granted, hers came all the way from her home, Xiao tried to make it really detailed to match. Monkey see, monkey do. It was supposed to be his art project but it was kind of fragile. He didn’t want it to fall on the ground, but if he climbed down slowly, it’d get blown by the wind.

So, he rolled off of the top branch. Free-falling for a few moments he felt the many branches in the air around him, many thin. Because of his weight, Xiao didn't try to grab just any old limb as he didn't want to hurt the trees that the birds lived in. Though, just as he was nearing the target, his eye caught indicated a big one just to his right. He bounced off of a stone wall to his left and latched to the limb above the twig holding his mask.

The monkey boy hung upside down like a sloth at first, causing his waist length hair to droop like a cape.

An arm extended for a hand to reach for it. It was just out of reach.
So, he flipped around and hung by his knees to reach it. It was still out of reach.
So, he took it a step further and held himself upside down only by his feet.

Now able to reach, he jostled a tad to pull it off, but he didn’t take into account the weight of snow on the branch too. Just as he managed to grab hold-- SNAP!

Just one capuchin yowl later, down went the monkey and into a snow pile he went. A poof of white powder later, and Xiao was grounded, but the mask was safe in his arms. Well that could have went worse. He could have knocked the Owls’ nest out of the tree. The Hooters wouldn’t have been too fond of that.

He stood up and shook his head of the cold, trying to warm his fur back up. Likely a good time to go back inside...He had a little mask lady to find.
