@Queentze Kriss?

@Kalas It'd be interesting to see him in a CQC fight with Kriss (my OC), who can see in complete darkness and is well-trained in fighting hand-to-hand and with the combat knife he carries. The surprise ability to see in the dark, sense attacks, and use a knife would be a good counter for an expert martial artist who becomes stronger, faster and more agile in the dark.

@Kalas Um...he sounds like a bad person. Everything in his Powers list, to me, makes him sound like a psychopathic murder machine. I get that it's ironic, but "Potentially, Karma could blanket an entire city in eternal darkness though this theory has never been tested" and "Once inside his opponent, the darkness begins to poison the victim, infecting their flesh and mind and essentially killing them from the inside" sound a little TOO ironic.

It's up to the GM, of course. Just my personal opinion.

This could probably use some work but I'm getting tired. Let me know what you think. If possible, I'd like for him to retain the sunglasses in the facility.

Kriss

Appearance:
-Current:

Current

-In the Marines:

USMC

Kriss wears a blue fleece jacket and dark blue jeans, with black combat boots and black fingerless gloves. He also wears a Silver Falcon steel military wristwatch (specialopswatch.com/products-page/falc..), a gift from an officer who was friends with his father.

He also has Black MultiCam jacket and pants for missions, but he's lost access to them now that he's in confinement.

Name: Kriss Mauser
Alias: "The Hornet"
Age: 23
Gender: M
Personality: Disciplined, reliable, and determined. Kriss always has a goal, even if it's just "Make it through the next hour alive." His time as a Marine makes him extremely dangerous at close range, but he prefers to take the diplomatic route if possible. Kriss is respectful, whether you deserve it or not, and will go out of his way to help someone in need.

At least, that's how things used to be. Kriss has retained his discipline, determination and skill, but his respect for authority and desire to help others drains the longer he is in the ICF. In confrontation, he is now more direct than diplomatic. Extended time in isolation is taking a toll on his mental health as well, replacing discipline with impulse at times, often to his detriment.

History: Kriss's father, Günther Alexander Mauser, was a pilot in the TaktLwG33, or Tactical Air Force Wing 33, for twenty years. As a result, Kriss more or less lived in his own version of boot camp. You were up on time, home on time, and asleep on time. No booze, no drugs, no cigarettes. His parents were saved Christians, so you went to church every week and dressed for it. It was a lifestyle that a majority of teenagers would kill to get out of, but it stuck to him. He saw safety in having rules and a plan for your life, rather than hindrance, and it has consistently kept him out of trouble.

At age 18, Kriss joined the USMC. His talent for stealth, tact, and CQC caught the eye of a certain Agent. He was put through a very unique "boot camp," designed to draw out powers and abilities in people. It was revealed that Kriss could both turn completely invisible and see clearly in complete darkness and even through walls. Three years of intense training later, Kriss was sent to infiltrate a branch of the Russian Mob, rumored to be experimenting on their own form of that same "boot camp," intent on developing their own talented family. The Agents erased his connections to them, providing him with a falsified background and drop zones for any information he could dig up. His infiltration was successful and Kriss dug into the Mob slowly but surely for a solid year. Two weeks before he could make one final drop, the Agents kicked the door in, arresting everyone in the family, including Kriss. Sent to Illwood Correctional Facility, Kriss has since been working to prove his innocence, not easily done now that his connections to the Agents have been wiped.

WGUF-What Got You Famous: Kriss's WGUF never happened; it was fabricated by the Agents. After losing his six-man team in a mission gone sour, Kriss returned to the base camp in a rage, gunning down the rest of his squad and commanding officers, stealing every piece of information he could, and burning the camp to the ground. The marines dispatched a spec ops squad to eliminate him. None of them survived. Impressed by his "change of heart," the Mob approached him, tentatively at first but later with open arms.

Equipment:
- H&K UMP45 with a foregrip, mounted laser, and suppressor. Neon combat sights for aiming in the dark. 30-rnd box magazine. Carried on a 3-point sling in combat and in a sturdy messenger bag on his back in public.
- Ka-Bar knife
- His Aviator sunglasses also act as compact night vision/thermal goggles, and allow him to see through most surfaces.

Powers/Abilities/Skills/Talents:
- Excellent body strength, speed, and endurance from the USMC boot camp, though not superhuman. Limited by loss of energy and stamina.
- Green Belt in the MCMAP (Marine Corps Martial Art Program):

USMC Green Belt techniques

Intermediate Knife Techniques
Intermediate Weapon of Opportunity Techniques (Blocking)
Intermediate Ground Fighting w/ Arm Bars
Intermediate Bayonet Training
Intermediate Chokes (from the side)
Intermediate Throws (Shoulder)
Lower Body Strikes
Counters to Strikes
Unarmed Joint Manipulations w/ Enhanced Pain Compliance

- Can turn completely invisible. Anything he is wearing or carries turns invisible as well. Limited by still giving off a heat signature and making noise/leaving footprints.
- Can see in complete darkness without the glasses. Limited by everything being in grayscale. Good for emergency navigation, bad for seeing which way people are facing.

Every person/object/surface/whatever is a solid color between black and white

- Can detect threats, attacks, or surveillance from other people before he sees them. Limited by lack of "super speed." He can only react as quickly as a person.

Weakness:
- Mediocre academic intelligence
- Kriss is used to obeying orders and trusting superiors. The loss of both has caused some mental trauma, and time spent in the ICF is creating flashbacks, which can cause him to lose focus or panic.
- Seeing an Agent may lead to acts of blind violence rather than tact or strategy, depending on his mental state at the time.

Secret Hideout:
Relationships: Relationships are overrated.

@Queentze Okay, he uses his knowledge of the heroes to start hunting them down. Thinking Syndrome from The Incredibles, but more muscles and fewer capes. Just to seal the deal, he gets a manila envelope in the cell informing him of the agent's decision to leave him there, "thanks for your services, goodbye forever."

How about an undercover Agent who was arrested along with everyone else he was tailing? He was sent to infiltrate a faction to lead them into a trap, steal intelligence, find their HQ, etc. but he was caught too early and his cover is so deep that he's sent to prison with everyone else. I'm thinking that the Agents betrayed him and left him in prison (they considered his powers too dangerous from the beginning and he was just a loose end), which makes for a good guy rapidly going bad.

Seems like it hit a snag when someone took a knife to the brain. Oh well. I have a good idea for Kriss's story with his father, but ultimately I would have to ad-lib it because I haven't actually written it out/researched it. I think it may be an interesting idea to have someone leave a private message for someone else using words from the Bible, because it's inconspicuous.

Seriously, what the heck is going on with this RP.
