Personality: cold and merciless, and more than a little nuts, he's a sadist and thoroughly enjoys watching his gladiators fight each other to the death, knowing that he's responsible for the Gladiatorial fights that slowly break each of their spirits, as such, he's obsessed with finding Emitt, he sees him as a personal failure, Emitt survived eight years of Tetsu's games and he never broke, so Tetsu wants to bring everything he's gained with his freedom, and destroy it all, starting with his Team

Landing strategy: catching himself on one of his Glyphs, then float down

Aura/Effects: blue and sea green

Semblance: Glyphs, Tetsu's glyphs are physical creations of blue aura in the form of his symbol, he creates the glyph so that it touches something, and the glyph will attatch itself to that thing, himself included, and move the glyphs, and whatever they're attatched to with his mind, each glyph takes aura to create and maintain

Weapons: Ripper Fins, a pair of saw toothed war fans with metal spines

Fighting style: when fighting at melee range he uses hand to hand combat in conjunction with his Ripper Fins, which he mostly weilds closed to block attacks, his unarmed style is heavy on kicks and whiplike arm motions, he prefers to fight at close range, where he can unfold his fans all the way, attatch glyphs to the centers of both fans, and throw them, manipulating their flight paths with the glyphs, the saw teeth on the fans leave painful but nonlethal wounds behind, he keeps shredding his opponent like that until they've grown too weak from blood loss and agony to move, then he breaks their necks with his bare hands if he's feeling genrous, if not he keeps hitting them with the fans until they die of blood loss or an accidentally lethal cut

Symbol: a blue circle with triangular teeth on the inside edge, like a lamprey's maw

Background: Tetsu was born into an abusive household, his father often beat him and his mother, and his mother blamed Tetsu for it and heaped further, psychological abuse onto his young shoulders, because Tetsu was a Faunus he also got the usual bullying form other kids, which led to his father beating him more for "acting like a pansy and just taking their shit" for thirteen years this went on, then, when Tetsu was fourteen he enrolled at Signal, where he created his Ripper Fins and learned his Semblance, as well as discover his sadistic tastes, two years later he was kicked out for killing three other students when they tried to bully him, he was forced to run from the law, but he managed to sneak into his house and brutally slaughter his parents, he's been living a life of crime ever since

Relationships: To Tetsu other people are only good for what they can do for him, he's a classic sociopath, utterly without conscience or concern for others' wellbeing, he doesn't have friends, just people who are useful to him, once they stop being useful he's just as likely to tear them to pieces as he is to hand them their agreed apon price and let them walk away
