 Name : Bark Gacela, Human, Male, 40 years old, Freelancer publicly (Assassin privately)

 Traits :  Generally seen with a stubble

 Other : Hip flask decorated with his emblem, a long but slim scar on his right arm; starts just above his wrist and goes up to his upper arm. Has been noted to hop in zig zag motions in order to dodge and keep his distance.

 Physique : 185 cm tall, 90kg, dark brown eyes, Dark Red aura, Right handed

 Hair : Fawn colored (Brown with some blond strands before age started to sink in)

 Weapon : A sniper rifle that looks more like an oversized pistol with a scope, a long barrel and a tomahawk blade on the end of it; the barrel is detachable allowing him to dual wield a gun and mini axe. Fires ball shaped bullets in order to aim easier with his semblance…most are completely metallic but he does have some fire and ice dust balls that simply explode on first impact.

 Semblance : Ricochet. Prevents energy loss on impact allowing him to make his bullets bounce of walls while barely losing inertia in order to perform kill shots from some rather ridiculous angles or use it on himself for some feats of parkour that even most hunters find hard to match. Can NOT be used on enemies to redirect attacks as this semblance requires time and physical contact to imprint the bounce properties, time that increases with size... so he only uses it on himself and his bullets.

 Fighting Style : Prefers 1v1 with the other target as far away as possible and will try to continuously keep the distance as he has learnt to hop and shoot…when that’s not an option he prefers closed spaces with lots of targets to bounce his shots off; he will try and put distance by alternating between bullet types.

 Landing Strategy : Hop from treetop to treetop until he sees some place to land and then hop some more till the inertia from the fall subsides.

 Personality : Cynical and sarcastic. Every time he talks he sounds like he’s bored of life…which can be off-putting as he doesn’t lose the tone even while trying to kill someone or while in mortal danger. Is friendly in a bored sort of way, even to people he might have tried to kill five minutes ago. Easiest way to be his friend is to pay his rent or buy him a drink. Easiest way to be his enemy is to not pay up a job you gave him.

 Casual Outfit : Light Brown coat and shoes, Black shirt, white pants;

 Combat Outfit : Dark Brown Jacket and hunter hat, Red shirt, Black pants

 Symbol : A brown V for victory shaped like a gazelles horns.

Background :  Drafted during the Faunus Rights Revolution right after reaching adulthood, Bark has spent years killing more faunus than he cared to count. Initially vindictive over all the friends and family they have killed, he soon lost the will to be angry after a near death experience with a rabbit faunus that tried to kill him in range when he shot his brother in the back of the head. The experience nearly destroyed his right arm and removed him from the war where he spent his time alone in the infirmary contemplating the last two people he killed as his anger slowly subsided.

Once out, he found the war long gone, and life has moved on without him. Now as a washed up middle aged man, the only place where he could make money were contractless jobs that worked him to the bone for the minimum of payment, but when he got approached by someone that described himself as an “information broker” he found out that as long as there are people alive, someone will want someone else dead, and where willing to pay a lot for that to happen. So with a shrug of his shoulder and a shake of a hand, he found himself back to doing what he did best, except this time he was targeting hotshot humans instead of down on their luck faunus…but with the recent rise of the White Fang it seems he would have to go back to old habits one day…a day he wasn’t looking forward to.

Notes : His aura is red to emphasize speed, or rather the fact he can make his bullets or himself not lose it (it also helps that there use to be red gazelles). His name is Bark because it’s usually brown, a color shared by many gazelle species. His hoping and semblance references how gazelles zig zag in order to dodge predators. The scar on his hand references the black stripe of the Thomson Gazzele; his casual outfit also references this species. His combat outfit references a hunter outfit and the tomahawk barrel references me running out of ideeas.
