EDITED :D
Name: Jack Shawn
Codename: Deckard
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Place of Birth: Colorado, Denver
Affiliations: Under a mentor (Adoptive father), Devereux
Occupation: -None-
Appearance: An averaged sized man, donning black hair from his heritage with a few strands of blonde in him. He is slender
due to his constant urge to perfect the art of Gun Kata, which involves running. He has a scar running from the corner of his lip to back of his ear.
Wears average clothes from time to time and has a penchant for Scarves
He wears a special cloak when hunting for criminals, the cloak is dark red in color.
Powers: Has the ability to manipulate wind (Not Generate them... yet), allowing him to sheathe his weapon with wind which helps it slice through enemies easier and quicker,
making it effectively painless as well.
He can also summon gales and direct them at a high velocity towards an enemy and can also use it to glide around as a means of travel; however he is not very skilled in this section as of late. He can also make a wall that will block a few projectiles but is not very sturdy as a few attacks can rip it open and pick up light objects on the floor with wind.
Skills:
Trained by his adoptive father, his endurance, strength and agility are noticeably higher than that of an average person.
Though he can run remarkably fast, his strength isn't as good as other the heroes.
-Trainee Marksmanship-
Trained in Gun kata.
He can use his Guns at close quarters range as melee weapons, but would prefer to stay a safedistance away.
-Above average Freerunner-
Due to not being able to use his powers at its highest potential as yet, he has adapted free running to give chase or retreat from danger.
-Above average intellect-
Jack can create and formulate strategies in his head, though not as effective as the other heroes who are exceptionally more clever.
Equipment/Resources:
Jack's cloak has the ability to withstand slight levels of elemental attacks but doesn't
fully protect him. It was obtained by his adoptive father through the underground.
Dons dual guns as his primary choice of weapons for combat but can also use a vast array of other types of firearm.
His adoptive father has a few special connections within the underworld and can normally get things done that other people
can't. Though his contacts are limited and will not be able to get him everything he might need.
Weaknesses:
Jack's power of manipulating wind will be useless in a vacuum or in space, he also barely has any experience with his newfound
powers. He has to be careful around fire users as wind can make their power even more deadly. Although he has powers, that does not mean he is invulnerable, as his powers are still growing and manifesting within him.
Even though he can fight people at close quarters, he is not as skilled as other people in melee range.
Psychological Profile:
Jack isn't a people's person. He's the type to keep to himself, a lone wolf per se. Even so, his integrity towards social justice and his moral code
urges him to help people who are in need, and will not ever hesitate to save people in a plight.
Even though he has a general
distrust of people, he still treasures all his loved ones and will go through great
lengths for them. People tend to underestimate Jack, which he uses to his advantage.
He doesn't like talking about his past and tends to avoid the subject, though he has a somewhat dry, crude humour which is often laced with sarcasm.
He is ruthless in battle and does not hesitate to eliminate a person who will prove to be a threat in the future.
He also has a soft side, that he has shown to a few select people.
Biography:
Jack, born and raised in Denver, Colorado, grew up with only a father as his mother died giving birth to him.
His father tried to do everything he could for Jack, and he was, at the time, Happy.
He had a childhood friend called Jane, they spent alot of time together, often playing in the woods and doing things
together.
Jack, considering his reclusive demeanour, got picked on a lot by many people, namely schoolmates-
even to the point where he'd attained a scar involving a
vicious attack with his pursuers at some point in his life.
The scar ran up from the corner of his lips to his ears.
The bullies ended up getting fended off by Jane. She was the one who always told Jack to stand up for himself, to pick himself up whenever he gets pushed down and to generally just stop being a pussy. "Life is what you make of it and nothing's going to happen if you spend your time cowering in the corner."
-Needless to say, when she moved away she was extremely worried about Jack, and thought about him throughout her journey.
As Jack got older, he tended to be non-confrontational as he looked at the world with a grey-tinted filter. He figured life would be easier for him if he just stayed a safe distance away from everyone. Naturally, being a social recluse, he did not have that many friends during this phase.
During this reclusive stage (And the Awakening), his powers had begun to manifest.
When Jack discovered his new-found powers accidentally, he was shocked and awed. He had no idea how and why he was blessed with a gift like this, nor did he know how to fully control it.
Life was normal for Jack, until one unfortunate night. He was casually lounging on the backseat of his father's car, watching and waiting as his father walked towards it.
It was during the wee hours of the night that a merciless mugger decided to ambush his father. Whilst watching his father get assaulted, Jack tried to access his newly found powers,
but found that he couldn't and to his horror was paralysed in his seat, forced to watch his father get overtaken, shot and have his corpse looted. This has led to his personality growing ever darker.
He saw how cruel, desperate and selfish
humanity could be that night. What he noticed about the mugger however, was the scraggly scar that ran across his pulsating jugular which resembled a 'Z'.
After his fathers death, the mugger all could not be found by the police and after a week of inverstigation was
dropped from the police, while he begged and pleaded the police to continue the case further, they simply coudn't
because of other 'pressing cases'. Jack fell in a deep state of depression as the last person who cared for him just, vanished.
Adopted by a mysterious man, Devereux, with who seemed to have connections with his father.
Throughout the years, Jack had asked for his father- Devereux skillfully avoided the subject but did mention that
he owed his father a huge debt. He trained him vigorously in the art
of Gun Kata to ultimately help the kid with his revenge, against the murder of his father.
Jack heard of the League through Devereux, and was prompted to join,
while at first, he didn't like the idea of working with other heroes
due to Devereux's persistance
and his drive to find his fathers murderer.
He now works side by side with the new 'heroes'.
