Name:


Caine Inuhoozuki (Nightshade)


Alias:


The Mockingbird


Age:


21


Appearance:


Anime-Guy2.jpg



(Ignore that LELOU name
xD . Also he wears that fox mask almost constantly, either fully on his face, covering half, or resting on his head.)


Caine is about 6'0, 160 pounds. He has a leaner frame for he is more for speed rather than strength. As you can see his skin is a bit paler, he has dark black hair, and very striking blue eyes.


Weapon:


His weapon is a katana that he named Henkō no ha(Change Blade). It seems like a regular katana, it's hilt wrapped up in layers of white cloth, and it is easy to mistake it as a simple weapon however this weapon holds a unique property. The ability that this blade holds contributes to Caine’s own ability. His weapon has the Copy Cat ability. This allows the weapon to change into an opponent’s weapon for a brief period of time, matching strength and durability of the opposing weapon. It can last up to ten minutes straight(A brief amount of time considering the strength of an opponent and the amount of time a battle consumes). It takes about 30 minutes to be fully recharged however this does not mean the user can constantly use it throughout the day. The blade feasts on its user’s energy. This prevents any weaker man from trying to use such a weapon and depending on the inner strength of a man determines on how much it can be used. Caine can currently use it up to 10 times a day, a considerably small amount however also a great amount compared to any past users. Henkō no ha has been in his family for generations. He is the current and possibly last of his family to wield the weapon.


Ability:


The Mockingbird’s Song:


This is a special ability that corresponds with his weapon. It allows Caine to copy the movements of any enemies, friends, ect. This also requires energy but not as much. With simple things such as copying ones walking, mouth movements, and such is fairly easy. That requires little to no energy. When it is with greater tasks such as matching ones speed, fighting style, strength( assuming the opponent is a strong one), it can drain a lot of energy. Weaker ones such as the people that attack the group barely consume any energy because of their lack of battle skills. It is said that while battling Caine, at times, you see yourself instead of him. This ability has been passed down through his family.


Wind:


Caine specializes in wind abilities. This is more of a minor, side skill but still useful for him. He can use his wind abilities for things such as;


-Speed Boost- Only for about 5 seconds but in that time everything is slow motion for him. Caine moves so fast that it the image of his body’s former position remains for a brief second, flickering then disappearing completely and in that time he is right beside you. This also is energy consuming, not as much as any other skill. In battle he uses this as little as possible so that he has room for his more ‘important’ skills.


-Wind slices- He can project wind into ‘wind blades’. Slices of Wind that range from small to large. Their distance ranges from 2-7 feet.


-Wind Arrows- This is also a rare-to-be-seen skill of his. When Henkō has taken a bow shape,copying another person’s bow, Caine can create Arrows made from wind. He can control their direction and speed. They can go as far as they want as long as it’s in a 10 second span of time. After 10 seconds it disappears. This counts as one of the more energy consuming abilities.


-Little Birds- (High five if you know the reference)This ability allows him to summon little wind birds to scout out areas to check for safety, listen onto enemies, or simply finding things. It is nothing too big and he can only come up with two. It is said that they are actually past spirits of his clan, something that is quite true. They mainly run on their own energy and generally are out almost all the time. They can’t physically or mentally attack anyone. You can occasionally see Caine gaze off as if listening or looking at something for he can only see the birds, unless you has a very very keen eye (They appear to be transparent blue Ravens). He also talks to them here and there and making it look like he’s talking to himself. For those who can’t see them you can tell they are there by a faint, out of place gust of wind.


Primary Skills:


As stated above his ‘Copycat’ skill, wind, he is a skilled swordsman and does quite well in martial arts. He relies more on speed than strength with martial arts~


Bio:


Caine’s family is actually a family of assassins. Once well-known and of many now reduced to a small family of five. His father, mother, older brother, older sister, and then Caine. Youngest but certainly the most skilled. He was the one child to inherit the ‘Mockingbird’ ability and thus inherited Henkō no ha. Even though he proved to be a very gifted child he was occasionally held back from sicknesses that would hit him.


Caine didn’t grow up in the greatest environment. He was constantly subjected to older sibling abuse and his father constantly scolding him. He grew up with a cruel family. The only one whom spared him of cruel treatment was his mother. While his father was trying to make a coldhearted assassin out of Caine his mother taught him the happiness and importance of life. Instead of becoming this great assassin to carry on the family name, Caine became a kind hearted child whom loved everything. At some point he literally couldn’t harm a fly. In a rage his father took him by the age of 5 to a mission to show his son the truth in the world.


What Caine saw changed him. Horrible people, torturing, death, blood. So much blood. Everything he thought the world was not like. However instead of being scarred by this experience like most children would be, he grew greatly fascinated in blood. In death. From that day forward he strived to become what his father wanted him to be like. He braved through sicknesses and trained in the most extreme of weathers. He followed his father in everywhere he went in hopes of encountering a man to kill. At that time Caine forgot the difference between right and wrong, developing on some form a sociopathic nature.


His first kill was his older sister at the age of 11. She had taken her teasing too far, so much so that Caine got irritated and sent Henkō right through her heart. His mother was horrified, brother despised him more than he already did, father was proud. Caine had no care for the sister who hated him. He only cared for his mother and making his father proud.


As Caine grew older he seemed to be struggling a lot between himself. His brother had died by an ambush, leaving him the only remaining child. He struggled between the side wanting to kill ,make his father proud, and the kindhearted side that began to surface once more due to his love for his mother. It set him back in his training. He often skipped to be alone or spend time with his mother. He soon began to neglect his ‘duties’ given to him by his father. Because of this his father did something that lead to Caine’s loneliness.


His father killed his mother in anger at his heir’s lack of motivation. For this Caine ended up taking his father’s life, leaving him the only remaining Inuhoozuki. At this time he grew bitter, he hated everything in this world, especially people. The only real thing he cared were his ‘little birds’ Satake and Hato and his own life.


The first time he met the group was when he happened to stumble upon them while they were saving people. He never knew anything but the darkness in people however these ‘Heros’ were something else. They were loved and praised, gifted. Worshipped. Something inside of him told him that he belonged with them up there. At first he was hesitant for he had doubts for he wasn’t exactly the Hero type. A cold hearted assassin with a rather bad past about him…..Not only that but Caine had no interest in this great war going on....but...to be up there and people loving him rather then hating....Then came the time where there was still one more beast lumbering about. It was about to kill a girl but Caine sprung out and saved her. It was at that moment he joined the group and fell in love.


Before the people turned on them Caine had grown to be a happier person, more merciful, kind once more however. The girl that he saved was a daughter of a baker and his first ever over. He would visit her with gifts, take her places, hang out. She was inside their house, waiting for him to return from a some mysterious job of his when the people turned and burned it down. Caine was standing and watching the flames in shock. From his fingers slipped a ring.


Personality:


Caine is a very bitter person. He is a very hateful person. A very merciless person. Ever since what happened to the group he had reverted back to his darker ways. He interacts with the group here and there but usually he watches from a tree(he loves his trees lol).Caine isn’t exactly the most likable person in the world. Whenever he talks he always has this dark, negative tone and he seems to always have cold eyes. His smiles are close to none.


Caine loves nothing more than fighting and killing, he sees it as a game. Either a game orbird and bug with weaker people or a game of life or death with stronger foes. In a fight his sociopathic nature tends to show. This is the time he smile . A dark smile with eager eyes awaiting his next ‘prey’. Caine tries to keep that side of him down but it IS him. Not some multi-personality thing or just some disorder. He can is very cautious and suspicious of people too.


He has a little saying. “What’s past is past, there is nothing we can do about it. That past is who we are and tells how we’ve became who we are now. Do not cling to it but do not let it go. I you hold on too tightly you will find yourself lost in it with no escape. If you let go then you will forget who you are and live your life as a lie. You need to hold on enough to where you know who you are but also know that you can’t dwell in the past for it is THE PAST.”


This seems a little off due to him seeing as if he still clings to his past lovers death and his past in general. In reality he has let that go. He may get all touchy and upset when he is reminded however ‘What’s past is past.’ His personality is from him remembering why he hated people in the first place. He saw the ugliness in the world once more.


(OK, so his personality may change here and there throughout the rp and there will most likely be more added in it. It’s weird but whenever I rp the more character development flows and the more likely he is to change. Not too drastically though~ Just…Probably a lot more to his personality than I wrote xD


Weaknesses:


Caine CANNOT copy things such as spells, mind reading, memory erasing, so on so forth. That’s pretty self-explanatory.


He has problems with his left knee due to a past injury that never properly healed.


He tends to overthink things a lot


Seeing his variety of skills, Caine is subjected to constant energy usage. This causes him to get tired easily, makes him sleep longer than most, and he has the constant threat of going into a coma.


Physically he is not strong. His strength relies on his skills.


Caine can actually get sick rather easily. When he was a child, a simple cough could turn into a deadly sickness for him. He has gotten better however he is still prone to getting sick faster than normal people and his immune system is weak, making it so that his wounds can be infected easier than normal people or the wound doesn’t heal properly. This leads in how he got his bad knee.

Name


Ulysses (No surname)


Alias


Wildfire, Fallen Praetor, Inferno


Age



24


Appearance



Ulysses stands at 5'11'' with an anorexic looking body that hides his surprisingly overwhelming physical strength. His hair is a bright shade of orange-red and reaches down to the tip of his nose in messy strands. His limbs are long and slim, giving him a very flexible body which combined with the concentrated and magically hidden muscles makes him a very quick opponent. He moves around with quiet and low-profile motions, as if he's trying to hide something, and is often overlooked in crowds and such.


Mostly covered in multiple layers of torn, light and airy clothing, Ulysses looks much more like a poor hobo from the desert countries than a grand hero, but it is his favorite outfit. Formal wear never really sat right with him, so random assortments of thin clothes in the colors red to white, with everything in between and the occasional black.


The most notable things about Ulysses are his discolored eyes, his rubber-like pale skin, his blazing red hair and his bony build. All of the aforementioned are side-effects from spells he's put upon himself that range all the way from raising his body temperature and protecting him from heat, to allowing him to see through the bright lights of the flame and scorching everything that gets within a meter's distance of him.


Weapon



The shining red pendant that hangs from Ulysses neck allows him to both store and summon the Imperator, a sword exclusively crafted out of arcane crystals that hold the power to amplify and concentrate the power of Ulysses' flames.


Ability


Advanced flame conjuration. Ulysses is the world's strongest fire sorcerer, and as such can cast many fire related spells. He already has a multitude of fire enchantments put on himself, which include: The ability to see through bright fire, rubber-like skin that doesn't burn and is tough as steel, red hair that doesn't burn, a field of about 1 meter around him that has a temperature of 1200°C, a field that protects his clothes from burning up, a standard body temperature of 150°C and a multitude of other smaller enchantments.


Of course, he has a large collection of offensive spells, but to simplify it he usually divides it up into 3 main schools of conjuration. These include, but are not limited to:


Fire conjuration - Ulysses can create and control massive amounts fire with temperatures up to 3500°C with increasingly more energy demand.


Blast conjuration - Ulysses can create and control fiery explosions to deliver the impact his flames cannot.


Scorch conjuration - An invention of his own, Ulysses can conjure a ball of white flames that wildly flickers at high speed. The ball is so concentrated that it has mass, and the fire is hot enough to burn through anything.


Primary Skills



Not counting the extensive fire-bending, Ulysses is a very fast and potent swordsmaster. His fighting style uses erratic movements and controversial moves to keep his opponents from guessing his next attack, but he's also taught in multiple traditional ways of wielding a sword. He's also very acrobatic.


Bio



A city of stone in the middle of the warm harsh desert is the birthplace of Ulysses. He never knew his parents or any of his family members. No, the first memory he has is that of a cute young girl, around the age of 9, who's holding his hand and walking him through the city streets. That girl was Sheena.


Sheena was also a homeless child, only 9 summers old. She'd found Ulysses discarded in a pile of rotting food she was searching through, weak and sick. He was but a newborn baby, but someone was apparently not ready to take care of him. Sheena made sure he got to visit a friend of hers who studied healing, and managed to nurse him back to good health. After that, Sheena was all he had. She took care of him, made sure he got fed somehow, made sure he had clothes somehow. She did everything for him. She was even the one who gave him his name.


So, one day, when he was 4, a poor family came upon the two and found them endearing. The father, who had unfortunately proved to be impotent, adopted the two as his own so that they got off the streets. They got to inherit their last name, which was exciting to the two. They were both without surnames, and getting one gave them some sense of self-worth.


It turned out Sheena was pretty good at whatever she was given to do, so when she turned 15 she even got a job to help support them. Ulysses, on the other hand, even though he was 7 seemed completely incompetent. His new parents were starting to get very frustrated with him, and the only reason he was still living with them was because of Sheena's pleads.


In the end they had to compromise. His family wanted him out, but Sheena wanted to make sure he was safe, so he got sent to a fire mage monastery. That's when he threw aside his previous surname. The time there as a novice worked in his favor. Being taught how to use a quarter staff, tending crops and taking care of relics while under the surveillance of the fire mages got him relatively good at everything and taught him discipline. This didn't last long though.


After a year in the monastery the Mages started giving Ulysses a lot of attention. It had been on everyone mind for a long time, but it was first now they tested it. Ulysses was born with a natural talent for fire magic and a energy pool only bested by Wizardlords. When the range of his power was discovered, he was quickly taken into rigorous training by the high-standing Wizards at the monastery.


It turned out that the competence he'd lacked in everything else was all compensated by his natural affinity for magic, and within 3 years he'd gotten to the rank of a Fire Mage, making him the youngest to receive this title ever. The mages decided that he was guided well enough that he didn't need their help anymore, and so he was free from the confines of the monastery. With his newfound freedom, he decided to go back to his earlier home to visit.


Finding out that he'd become something so important at such a young age, his "parents" were overjoyed to see him again, as was Sheena. While he was staying over, she presented the idea that maybe he should learn how to fight using his body as well, to make him even more of an opponent. After all, they said a healthy mind and body worked well together.


So, Ulysses started over again. He hid the robes and the quarterstaff that proved he was a fire mage, and joined the army. He was a bit older than all the other boys who had just joined the army, but he managed to work his way up to training with the boys of his own age in less than a year. It turned out he had a natural affinity for sword fighting as well.


He was put into a special group of advanced soldiers, where he got the best training he could for 3 years, until he was 14. That's when the attacks started. The monsters that suddenly threatened humanity came out of nowhere, and as a panicked last option Ulysses' squad was deployed in a high activity area.


It didn't take long before Ulysses was pushed to the point where he had to use magic, and when the army realized he was a mage on top of an incredible warrior, he was promoted to a custom rank, Praetor, that basically labeled him as a one-man army. He was put down in many different combat situations, and once lit an entire forest on fire to defeat an entire company of monstrous creatures. This is where he got his most popular title: Wildfire.


During his time in the war he amassed powers similar to those of the highest knights and wizard lords, becoming both a master in conjuring and swordplay. This is when he joined up with the band of heroes that were doing a last push against the nightmarish creatures for the benefit of humanity. In the band he used the nickname "Inferno", and became known as one of the worlds greatest saviours. He loved the fame, the glory and most of all the happiness he felt like he spread by saving people.


So, of course he grew bitter when the war ended and the heroes disbanded. People started to look down on the former heroes, and even though he held the power to wipe out a city on his own people abused him because he'd never hurt innocents. About a year after the war ended Sheena disappeared inexplicably, and local authorities claimed it was a hate crime against Ulysses.


Safe to say, Ulysses was never quite the same.


(Sorry for shit quality, but I didn't feel like writing 20-something paragraphs just this moment.)


Personality



As a kid, Ulysses was the sweetest boy you could imagine. Thankful and happy for anything he could get. This attitude stuck with him all the way until he turned 17, when the war had torn on his human emotions and reality was clearer than anything to him. Bitterness slowly started to take him over after the war had ended and everyone started shunning the heroes, but when Sheena disappeared everything changed.


Ulysses pulled back from everyone and everything, and currently lives quiet and alone in a small cottage atop a mountain. He's grown rather emotionless and cold, and even though he was even offered coming back to the monastery to be the new archmage, he declined. Old happy Ulysses is still hiding underneath the surface somewhere, but right now his bitterness has taken over completely.


Weaknesses



Water, obviously. While Ulysses is far more than powerful enough to conjure fire in the rain or humid areas, it's all the more draining to do so.


Although Ulysses was born with an incredibly large energy pool and trained it up even further over the years, his attacks are often much less optimized than they should be and drain huge amounts of energy.


Ulysses does not have much in the way of defense seeing as fire doesn't stop physical objects that well, and has to be very creative to protect himself.

Ability:


Hotaka appears to be able to use Psychic related magic, it's advanced and he knows how to use it fairly good, either by tricking someone or doing a lot of side steps. A few of these powers come with names and a description on how it works.

~Parasite Seeing~

Grants the Ability to see the world through others' eyes.

~Reading Minds~

Receives electrical signals from machines and humans, essentially reading their minds.

~Alibi Lock~

Allows him to appear in any location he so wants, be it physical or metaphysical.

~Door To Door~

An ability which allows Hotaka to bring himself and others into the dream world, where they appear at different stages in their lives. While Hotaka can enter the dream world freely on his own, he must first hold the hands of the person long enough until they get brought there.

~Lip Service~

By kissing someone, Hotaka is capable of switching their current ability with another that he possesses.

~Mirror Juvenile~

An ability which tampers with a person's sense of perception, allowing Hotaka to appear to them however he wishes.

Primary Skills:


Hotaka is a skilled fighter, his main weapon is a spear. He is quick and fast on his feet, and usually side steps or tricks the opponent so that they can't predict his movement.

Bio:

WIP

Personality:

Hotaka is a tricky man, he will side step, teleport, evade everything that his opponents throw at him. But he is also an idiot, he doesn't think anything through and commonly rushes into battle. But he is also unpredictable, not anyone or even himself can keep up with himself.

Weaknesses:

When I said fairly good, I meant a little suck-ish. Occasionally, when he uses Reading Minds, he often as trouble getting out of the mind, as if the mind is too complex, he'll be reading your mind for at best (Estimated) 15 Hours. Normal mind, (Estimated) a good 6 hours.

Using Door To Door, he finds it impossible to get out, since there is no such thing as a exit nor door. Even though he mostly uses it to escape a battle or just to remember something, he has a few moments where he can't get out.

Hatoka didn't really train himself for defense and often lacks it, something that spreads makes it harder for him to move. And he often doesn't know his plan and really doesn't even think about it.

(Did I do good? PM me or Tag me to fix or add anything. Bye! Also I won't be able to reply soon enough because I'll be at Florida so... Yeah!)

Name: Romulus Lupum


Alias: The Last Wolf


Age: 29


Appearance: Standing at Six feet even, Romulus Lupum's physical features can be described in a simple sentence or two. He's a lean man with sharp, angled facial features and short ebony colored hair. Romulus' eyes are as dark as coal, usually carrying a cold indifference with them, as well. The man's skin is rich, olive tan color despite rarely letting his body soak up the Sun unbinded. His features are youthful, yet progressively aging. Steadily giving him a more mature look as the years pass.

24nfgpg.jpg
Weapon: Romulus' weapon of choice is a specially crafted gladius with a red jewel in the hilt and at the base of the sword. These two gems act as receptors for Romulus' own abilities, sucking in his life force to change the quality and make up of the gladius. With this technique, Romulus will literally inject his own life force, allowing him to further customize the blade for a duration. The length and density are the biggest factors, with Romulus able to increase its range or even striking power at will. This makes for several deadly possibilities when fighting him in close range combat.


Ability: Romulus Lupum has a variety of techniques he can use, all variations of a core ability. Romulus is able to transform, manipulate his life force to access these different abilities. The general term for this, atleast as far as Romulus is concerned, is Life Tap.


Red Mist/Fog - The first and most widely used of Romulus' abilities, by either exhaling or letting it pour from his skin, Romulus summons a crimson colored vapor that drifts over a battle field. Romulus can control its density, but to do so reduces the range of the technique. Vice versa, if Romulus expands it greatly he is unable to blind his opponents. With the mist being a mere extension of Romulus' life force, he is able to feel and see everything inside of it. Giving him full vision over the battle field. Romulus is able to to use this technique with little strain on his being.


Bodily Transformation - Romulus' most costly technique to use, it works off of the Red Mist, though is not dependent on it. The Last Wolf is able to turn parts of or his entire body into the red mist itself, avoiding damage and letting him reposition himself better when forming again. In the rare occurrences that Romulus will use this with the Red Mist, he is able to partially reform anywhere where his fog touches, and strike at his opponents with Life-Giver.


The Red Dawn - His final technique and easily most devastating, both to him and the opponents. With his other abilities, Romulus is able to eventually gather the used life force back up, but with The Red Dawn it's entirely lost. There are two variations to this ability, both playing off of his sword and the Red Mist. Romulus is able to send concentrated blasts of his life force from the sword and out at opponents, resulting in small explosions when colliding with a target. The Red Dawn's final usage is a last resort, playing off of the Red Mist. Romulus' life energy being used to create the mist is changed, the gas turns into a flammable gas. With a mental command, the Red Dawn will combust, catching anything inside of the mist in a massive explosion. With every use of The Red Dawn, Romulus loses from months to years off of his life span. The sword variation resulting in merely months while the second can take off up to five years, with a decent explosion.


Primary Skills - Apart from his life tap ability, Romulus is nothing to over look when it comes to his basic swordsmenship. The man is able to contend easily with some of the best, largely due to his own unique sword however. Apart from average speed and strength, Romulus is your average knight you would find.


Bio: Romulus grew up as the only child to a fisherman, living on in a coastal village not far from Citadel. The Last Wolf spent his youth learning the ropes, quite literally, from his father as they would usually go out onto the sea for most hours of the day, not returning until either dusk or they brought home enough fish. It during these periods of time that Romulus' own unnatural abilities began to manifest, mingling with the morning mist and altering it. The new found sense of power would steadily change Romulus as he saught to use it creatively, to help with his family. At first, the mist would be used to help blind other fisherman, giving Romulus and his father a key advantage. Soon though, Romulus began to experiment with it further. He would steal the catches of other fisherman returning back, instead of even needing to do the work himself.


Romulus' parents looked down upon his behavior, but couldn't argue with the results. They would not step in, but ignore it. His father still went out every morning to catch fish for the day, but his son would always bring in a haul many times bigger. Rumors began to spark as the villagers and even fishermen who'd been wronged by Romulus in other towns and villages heard of the boys misdoings. Finally, just years later when Romulus steadily climbed in how palpable he was in the theft of the villagers lively hood, those he stole from had enough. They demanded the boy pay for it, and when he denied the actions the villagers took their anger out on the parents. Early the next morning, Romulus' father was drowned deep in the sea when he went fishing supposedly alone. The other fishermen followed him out far enough to where no one could see the act take place. Like wise, Romulus' mother was smothered when she was sleeping.


When Romulus discovered the corpse of his mother, lifeless in bed, he lost it. At only fifteen years old, the teenager unleashed the red mist over the village and picked off the villagers one by one. Using a rusted hook, his own fathers, as the primary tool. He would search for days for his father, only for him to come to the chilling realization that the youths parent had likely been killed when he was out at sea in the morning. The boy shut down for days when this all sunk in, the fact that he was alone in the world. Romulus had condemned his own parents just because he didn't want to work, it was a crushing blow.


That was the scene when Ser Goffery found him, a knight who had been told to patrol the area on reports of these thefts. The boy refusing to eat or speak, in a town painted red with a dangerous crimson mist floating lightly in the air. Ser Goffery, a man of great strength himself, put the pieces together. Ser Goffery took the boy and told him he had two choices, to be arrested and likely hung for the crimes he's committed, or to join the knights own personal force. Romulus picked the latter, being taken by the knight to join his professional order. The Dire Wolves, Ser Goffery had called them all. Romulus was drilled relentlessly, trained by the whole pack, as it were. For five years Romulus was seen as a recruit, but when the war broke out, The Dire Wolves were called upon. Romulus was finally recognized as a member of the group, and the Dire Wolves would ride out to fight each threat that approached their dominion. The Dire Wolves fought with the tenacity one would expect such an aptly named group to, but in the end they fell. One after another, until Romulus was all that remained.


Romulus, by the end of the five years of training, proved to be the strongest of the Dire Wolves. Largely due to his own natural abilities, the Last Wolf continued to fight against the beasts and monsters that threatened the order of the region. It was during one of these battles that Romulus encountered the group known as the Heroes, fighting a losing battle before they joined in. When victory was assured and the monsters thrown back from where they came, the Last Wolf requested to join them. Having grown use to fighting with a group, the idea of being alone unnerved him, and fortunately the heroes had allowed Romulus to join. Everything else is but history.


(At least one paragraph. Check Overview for some timeline stuff)


Personality: Romulus is largely seen as a team player, willing to work with others and always having some form of grin plastered on his face. Either it be from sinister actions or innocent laughter, the expression rarely changes. Despite his own issues or past, Romulus will always seem up beat, not letting himself be bagged down by the past. The man always seems to be thinking, as well.


Romulus has a very playful attitude with him, most of the time. Not above teasing or joking with the other Heroes. With enough skill and strength to handle himself, Romulus will rarely run into a fight, prefering others to take up arms for him or hoping to avoid the situation. To him, fighting is nothing more then a waste of time, especially if you can have others do it for you. The ebony haired knight has a strong lust for both women and wine, either seen with one or the other around him at all times.

Weaknesses:


Romulus' biggest combat weakness is a lack of ranged attacks and a severe lack of an answer to ranged attacks. If an opponent can work around the Mist and locate Romulus in it, he'll largely be unable to consistently block or dodge the attacks. Leading him to exhaust his bodily transformation and further tire himself out.


Outside of combat, Romulus' exploitable weaknesses become all more aparrant. The man is sickened with women and wine, poisoning one or the other would effect the knight dramatically. Catching him while drunk or intoxicated isn't the rarest of events, either.


Short shortsightedness and even a bit of stubborn behavior prevents Romulus from seeing himself do anything wrong, even in battle when it's clear that he's being beaten. It will further enrage him and push him to make more mistakes. Even outside of combat, one can make the man angry enough to slip up or spill information he should not.


Edit: It's a bit rushed, but I was having trouble thinking for it. So I might edit it later when I get a more coherent idea in my head.
