<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:2.25pt0in2.25pt30pt;text-indent:-0.25in;line-height:16.5pt;background:black;"> §   <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Personality: Doesn’t trust anyone and is willing to throw anyone and everyone under the bus to keep himself afloat. He makes his intentions clear as day and doesn’t hide from anyone or anything. Believes in two rules for himself, ‘The ends always justify the means’ and ‘Look out for #1’. He care little for concept that are right or wrong and has replaced them with ‘surviving and not surviving’. If he is talking to you are letting you talk to him, it’s because he sees value in using or learning something from you. Not because he wants to be your friend.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:2.25pt0in2.25pt30pt;text-indent:-0.25in;line-height:16.5pt;background:black;"> §   <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Landing strategy: Hit the ground. Hard. Anything in the way is going to get hit too.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:2.25pt0in2.25pt30pt;text-indent:-0.25in;line-height:16.5pt;background:black;"> §   <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Aura/Effects: Ocean Blue. Slightly subdued glow that glows in the same pattern of a shore line.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:2.25pt0in2.25pt30pt;text-indent:-0.25in;line-height:16.5pt;background:black;"> §   <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Semblance: Captain. Semblance allows him to create up to 30 clones that go out and fulfil commands. The clones themselves are quite fragile as any good hit cause them to disappear as they meant more for distractions, cannon-fodder, acquiring things or accomplishment of simple task. Each clone created weakens user. 5 clones- Hard for user to stand and think straight. 10 clones- User will be unable to stand or move for a long period of time. 15 clones- user passes out after giving commands, recovery time is between 10 hours to a full day. 20 clones- comatose state for unknown amount of time, high chance of death. 25 clones- certain death. 30 clones- certain death.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:2.25pt0in2.25pt30pt;text-indent:-0.25in;line-height:16.5pt;background:black;"> §   <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Weapon: Aeolus. A large, heavy gauntlet that cover the user’s entire arm. Only one, for primary arm. Meant as a defensive weapon only. Has no long range capabilities. Can use dust cartridges as defensive counter, like a trap; upon hitting gauntlet at a certain spot, the user can release the cartridge to explode towards the assailant.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:2.25pt0in2.25pt30pt;text-indent:-0.25in;line-height:16.5pt;background:black;"> §   <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Fighting style: Mostly a brawler. Having no kind of education since the age of six he has adopted a fighting style that is both very effective but highly self-destructive. It boils down to never letting the enemy get a hit in by not letting them attack at all. Doesn’t matter to him if the punches and kicks are working, it just matters that the opponent doesn’t get time to strike back. He is also willing to break his body to defeat his opponent. If an arm is broken during a fight that won’t stop him from using it. If there is a potential opening to attack but it require the breaking or severe damaging of a body part he will do it. He attempt to avoid such instances but he will take them if the opportunity arises. The fighting idea he has established is that, ‘I am not safe as long as he is conscious or alive’. He will use any dirty tactic that will spring to mind and isn’t above using a hostage to get the upper hand.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:2.25pt0in2.25pt30pt;text-indent:-0.25in;line-height:16.5pt;background:black;"> §   <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Symbol: Haven’t thought of it yet.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:2.25pt0in2.25pt30pt;text-indent:-0.25in;line-height:16.5pt;background:black;"> §   <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Background: He lost his parents at the age of six to his father’s friend, a huntsmen. After running away from the child service, he began to live off the streets and learning how to steal, pawn and scam other people. After a year or two of this lifestyle, he was eventually picked up by a huntsmen. The huntsman was actually a leader of a drug ring and forced Odysseus into the business. It was then that he began to hate huntsmen as he eventually began to move from huntsmen’s crime gang to another huntsmen’s crime operation, all of them threating to kill him if he failed or attempted to leave or rat them out. He lived like this for 10 years, learning how to backstab people, lie effectively, fight for his survival and how the true darker side of the world worked before eventually managing to escape the hold of one of the huntsmen that were using him. He tries to rob a store to get some money and food but was caught. This leads to him begin given the option to either go to Beacon or go to Juvy for long a long time. He choose to go to Beacon as a way to get out of Juvy but he doesn’t plan to stay there.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:2.25pt0in2.25pt30pt;text-indent:-0.25in;line-height:16.5pt;background:black;"> §   <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Relationships: He is not very open to people. He is very good at reading people actions and facial expression but isn’t too good on discerning what they could mean. Because of living in a cut-throat world, he hasn’t had many friends so he forgot how they act with each other much. He doesn’t like to disclose much about himself because he believes that there isn’t much to him. He only believes in conversing with people to get something out of them, be it a favor, money or information. He doesn’t care much for others which includes those on his team as he attempts to leave beacon on multiple occasions.

<span style="font-size:10.5pt;line-height:107%;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Notes: The character really isn’t based on anything nor did I derive him from any big inspiration. In truth I just wanted a character that would work well in a story that has to deal with crocked huntsmen. He would be the main character as the story would deal with him against becoming a huntsman, as he is doing so and him growing as a better person but also growing in uncertainty about being a huntsmen. He becomes a better person; developing relationships, friends, trust and those things, but he is still worried about becoming a hunter since he sees himself as a bad person down to the core.
