The Irish Tree
Damycles
Name:Addica Vald
Nickname: n/a
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 15, almost 16
Weapons:Reisszahne
Twin elbow length gloves that have small Dust tubes on the top, this tubing is covered by a black microfiber cloth. These tubes connect via internal tubing within the gloves to small circular areas on the palm of the gloves. The dust is used to either fire short burst of elemental energy or charge into larger attacks. Attached to the bottom of the gloves are black tubes that resemble barrels. Inside either of these barrels is a long bladed kunai attached to a length of metal cable(of approx. 25 feet). These can be either fired or released into the palm providing either an additional long range attack option or melee weapons. The cable has a powerful winch inside designed to retract the kunai, if used correctly the weapon can be used in a hookshot like manner. The cable and the kunai are both made from a highly conductive but strong metal.
The gloves and the tubing for the cable are both black. The circular area in the palm is when in active white but when being used glows the color of the dust that is being channeled.
The cable and the kunai are both made from an incredibly durable and conductive metal. The kunai on impact from a throw or if launched spreads hooks into the surface that digs into, this provides a way to lock the blade in place whether that place be a wall, tree or enemy. These hooks are locked into place until released by Addica’s aura
Equipment: Along with Reisszahne Addica carries a short blade (about 1 foot in length) on his hip. This functions as a defensive weapon and is often used in a reverse handed style in order to block and parry blows with. On left side, wielded with left hand.
Along with the short blade he also carries vials of dust in pockets on his belt, these are used to refuel Reisszahne.
He also keeps a hairband in his pocket for tying his hair back before a fight.
Armor: Addica’s armor consists of banded metal plating along the top of his arms/hands and up to his shoulders, this partially to protect the dust tubing in Reisszahne and partially to give him a larger surface to block with. This partial metal plating slides up to the top of his shoulders overlaying one another, they are deployed through and retracted through the use of his aura. The rest of the armor is ribbed padding located on his sides, lower legs, knees and directly over his chest.
Semblance: Spirit of Friend*
Addica’s Semblance falls into two parts an active and a passive. The passive is an ability that allows him to sense people’s surface emotions, when he talks about it he jokingly refers to it as his friend-dar as it lets him find people that are more open to being friendly. Also this allows him to sense people around him with hostile intentions. As it is Addica can only read someone’s emotions if they are currently in his scope of sight eventually though this passive has the ability to allow him to sense everyone in the immediate area around him.
The active portion of Addica’s Semblance is a danger sense that both increases his perception and his ability to dodge incoming attacks, including attacks that he shouldn’t rightfully be able to see coming. Currently Addica can only maintain this part of his Semblance for 15 minutes at the very max, at this point he has pushed all of his energy into it and not even his passive would be active.
Hobbies: Sleeping, metal music, training and eating cookies
Bio: Left on the streets at an early age Addica had to learn to fend for himself to this. Stealing food, clothing and whatever other necessities he needed. It was while on the streets that he met Bree, a cat fauna (both were 7). She and Addica quickly became friends living together in the back allies. A short three years later Addica and Bree were cutting through an alley when they were attacked by a group of guys a few years older than themselves. Two of the guys grabbed Bree and started beating her while a third pinned Addica to a wall and taunted him for spending his time with fauna. Addica could do nothing but scream for someone to save them, save Bree. And just when he had about given up hope an older boy smashed one of the guys that was kicking Bree’s unmoving body across the back of the head with a pipe. Watching their friend crumble to the ground the other two bullies ditched. The boy who had rescued them introduced himself to them as Nicol. Nicol was himself 13 and had spent the last 6 years of his life living on the streets. Nicol was the orphaned son of a hunter and huntress and he told the youngsters glorious tales of his parents who died fighting the monsters of Grimm. Despite their untimely death Nicol aspired to be like his parents and to that ended he had fought his way into a preparatory school for Hunters. He was the like the a big brother to both Bree and Addica. Nico protected them both from other less kind people that lived on the streets, especially Bree from those that would do her harm because she was a fauna. After Nicol began attending the pre-hunter school he began to teach Addica and Bree the things he learned and when they turned 13 urged them to apply to the same prep school he was going to. To both of their surprise and with Nicol’s help they both managed to get in. The three spent all their free time at school together and had their lunch hour with one another. But the end of Bree and Addica’s first year at the school brought to them a bittersweet joy in that Nicol had been accepted into the most elite of Hunter Academies, Beacon. Both Addica and Bree made it their personal goal to join him there as soon as possible. It wasn’t but days after Nicol left that the two were cornered in an alley by the same group of Fauna haters that Nicol had kept at bay over the past 4 years. This time there was no Nicol to save them and all Addica could do was watch as they beat Bree to death the whole time yelling insults at her based strictly off the fact that she was a fauna. After they had beat her to the point that she was more a smear on the ground then a person the guy holding Addica to the wall slammed him hard against before dropping him to the ground and kicking him hard in the stomach. Spitting on him and calling him a dirty fauna lover the guys left Addica and the now brutalized Bree on the ground. Eventually Addica was able to find help but even at the hospital there was little they could do for Bree and Addica sat beside her the whole time watching her slowly succumb to the beating that she had been dealt at the hands of a group of ignorant racists. Bree had been Addica’s best friend and he loved her. Watching her die was one of the most scarring things he could imagine but he sat next to her, holding her hand until the machine that measured her heart beat flat lined. Over the two years following Bree’s death Addica pushed himself to his very limit managing to get out of the academy and accepted into Beacon in within a 3 year time period. After watching his best friend and his first love die Addica had vowed to never let such senseless violence pervaded the life of those he loved again and to that end he was going to become as strong as possible…. Because if he had been as strong then as he was now Bree would still be alive.
Personality: On the surface Addica is a fun loving guy, that likes to make new friends. He loves talking about music and normal teenager things, movies, games, the newest in hunter weaponry, the usual. But below that is a more grown up darker individual (watching your best friend be murdered will do that to you). He cannot stand racism whether directed at humans or fauna. He would sooner die then see someone he cares about hurt again.
Appearance:
Addica is about 5’8 and lean with wiry but slightly muscular build. Addica has straight shaggy black hair that he lets hang freely to his shoulders. His eyes are an almost grey shade of blue and his face carries a natural look of seriousness. This seriousness disappears once he starts laughing and enjoying himself. His preferred outfit is one of blue jeans, a band t-shirt of some sort and a black jacket with a hood (he wears the ribbed armor underneath these “street clothes”).
*the name for his Semblance comes from the fact that Bree was cat fauna. Cats are proven to be able to sense emotions and their whiskers act as danger sense in that they sense vibrations in the air.
