Gentlemenly Gentlemen
Name: William Rike
Alias: The Phantom
Gender: Male
Age: 25
Appearance: :
(but with a mask)
Backstory: William Rike was born in London.. Rike's family was rather poor, always having to save every penny or euro. Rike growing up was give care and compassion from the other children. Only joking they beat him up routinely. That was when Rike learned that being good didn't pay in both metaphorical and literal sense. His first job was that of one of his young tormentors father or rather his swanky jewelry store. That place ended up empty by the end of the night. He also found some picture of the married owner with a woman who didn't look like his wife. Will never knew a women could do things like that. Still it made a tidy sum. And that was only at thirteen. At sixteen he left home, wasn't because of his family more because he need to spread its wings as it were. To be fair they didn't really care for him. He didn't get along with before moving out to Paris at sixteen. He has also spent time in Russia, Spain, Germany and many other countries. Eventually he ended up in the great land of America. A land of hero and villains it seems. Rike having no interest in that just wondered, wonder what a hero and a villain might have worth stealing
Family: Hasn't seen them in a while
Friend(s): A few broker who help with stolen good that's about it. Friends get in the way of business.
Personality: Cocky to the extreme believing himself above everyone. Sarcastic taking great pleasuring in taunting his foes. Is fairly level headed with it taking a lot to anger him. Compassion isn't flowing through him but he will help if someones life is threatened. Is not trust worthy at all always out for himself and will only help if it benefits him. Is quite intelligent in terms of both book and street smarts. He doesn't really deal with people, not that he is an introvert more because he views his work as more important. Plus if they found out they probably wouldn't get along with him that well.
Strengths: -Very agile being rather adapt at parkour which helps with the job
-Isn't strong in terms of brute strength but knows some martial arts, mostly knock out moves and the like.
-Is very good at stealth having both experience and a natural affinity for it.
Weaknesses: -Sometimes is a bit overconfident which can lead to some unfortunate incidents
-Has no real allies so if he gets caught or hurt no one is bringing him home.
-Can sometimes get greedy leading to more unfortunate incidents.
Future power: Enhanced sight: Eventually Rike will gain enhanced agility, allowing to jump great heights or run at great speed.
Future power: Weakness: Using any of these enhanced agility wears him out entirely, and he can only handle it for about one jump or run for about twenty seconds.
Equipment :- A custom umbrella with a grappling hook, electric shock cables and a sword inside. The sword is really just of fun. The other parts no so much.
-A black skintight mask. After all with a face as beautiful as Will's not everyone should be allowed to see it.
-A series of notes to be left at the scene of all of his... expeditions. Reputation is very important in this business
-His apartment- One of the nicer ones in the city with a high rent fee. It also has some a hidden room. Behind a bookcase of course. It house Rike's equipment/
