This is what he will have on him as of the beginning of the RP?

<Snipped quote>

That is all well and good but what about this "long list of techniques" he apparently utilizes? For this RP are you simply not going to use any of those? If you wish a character to have a power of the beginning of the RP it has to be mentioned in this section otherwise it will be treated as though it either never existed or as of the virus strike it can no longer be used.

There are more positive attributes in your Weaknesses and Limitations section than there are actual Weaknesses or Limitations. Destroyed ninjas, armed forces, demons. Can perform feats of strength, speed, endurance, and dexterity beyond other humans. The actual weaknesses I can count are:
1. If you throw enough armies at him he'll get tired and die eventually
2. He can die to lethal wounds (which apparently even demons can't seem to inflict)
3. He has to sleep to recharge his magic

This section is basically for you to input "What scenarios can kill my character." and "What can't my character do." I'm slightly disturbed by the power level of a character when the one playing them can't seem to answer either of those questions.

@Prince of Seraphs

1. Yes, that's his starting equipment.
2. Techniques in the real-world sense. A front kick is a technique. Do you want me to list his entire command list because they essentially break down to combos. The stuff outside of that is already listed. As for his other ninpo, they aren't listed because he won't be using them. Just the starting one.
3. He's a human. What can kill a human? Bullets, knives, 500 or so pounds of force to his skull. What can a human not do? A lot of things. He can't fly. He can't lift a truck over his head. What could kill Batman, or James Bond, or any human character? The reason no one has been able to inflict a lethal wound on him in his games is plot armor.

Ryu Hayabusa

Name: Ryu Hayabusa
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Game: Ninja Gaiden Series
Appearance:

Ryu Hayabusa

Equipment: While Ryu has wielded a great deal of weapons, his main stays are throwing kunai knives he keeps strapped to his legs, a bow and quiver of arrows, and the legendary Dragon Sword, a katana his family has long guarded with a blade that is said to cut through anything.
Abilities: Ryu has mastered the art of Hayabusa-ryu ninjutsu, and has a long list of techniques and capabilities. However, outside of his martial arts and weapon prowess, he wields Ninpo, mystical ninja magic. His signature Ninpo ability is The Art of the Fire Wheel. He creates three fireballs that orbit around him, serving as a kind of protection.
Weaknesses and Limitations: Ryu is a master ninja, a peak-level human that has destroyed ninja, armed forces, even demons. However, for all of his skill and ability, he is still human. A lethal wound is a lethal wound. His physical parameters are impressive, allowing him to perform feats of strength, speed, endurance, and dexterity beyond other humans, but he can only rage against insurmountable odds for so long. In addition, utilizing Ninpo requires a measure of spiritual energy, or ki, which can only be restored through rest and meditation.
Personality: Ryu is a ninja. In battle he is cold and calculating and while cut down a foe without hesitation or remorse. He is, however, not without honor. He knows that the lives he takes are in pursuit of the greater good, but takes no pleasure in killing. It is simply an act that he must commit in order to accomplish whatever his mission may be. He has a strong sense of the greater good, and has on multiple occasions saved the world from disaster and destruction. He has the wisdom, outlook, and demeanor of an elderly man, and has a high respect for balance. He harbors no lust for power, nor any curiosity in darkness. He is a man who has accepted what he is and what he must never be.
Backstory: Born the son of Jo Hayabusa, Ryu is the youngest shinobi of the Dragon Lineage Ninja Clan. From a young age he face grueling training in combat, survival, stealth, and killing, as well as many other skills that a shinobi might need. He excelled and quickly became the top student of the clan, being named the successor of the Hayabusa Clan when he graduated. He is the wielder and guardian of the Dragon Sword. He has done more for the clan than just assassinate targets. He has also cemented relations between his clan and other shinobi clans, such as the Mugen Tenshin clan. He is actually close personal friends with the clan leader Hayate, and his younger sisters Kasumi and Ayane. With their help, he has achieved great things, including defeating fiends risen from Hell and stopping several plots that jeopardized the safety of the world.

Hello.

Hey, everyone. I'm James, or Jimmy, or Jamie, or whatever, really. I've been writing... shit, for almost twenty years, now. However, only been forum roleplaying for about five years or so. I enjoy a lot of "nerd shit," as my friends call it. Anything from anime to western comics, tabletop games, I've even gotten down on some Magic: The Gathering.

Pleasure to be here.
