Second hero, hopefully will write up some villains soon-ish. This one is a complete transparent expy really, but oh well. ^^;

[*]Name: Ishinomori Yoshi. After recieving involuntarily cybernetic modifications, he has became known as the super cyborg [i]Hopper King[/i].[/*]
[*]Age: Somewhere in his 40s. Physically 20.[/*]
[*]Gender: Male[/*]
[*]Appearance: [url=http://sta.sh/028d921gtn2i]Now in glorious technicolour![/url][/*]
[*]Personality: Despite being transformed against his will, it seems like Yoshi was born to be a hero. He has a strong sense of justice and will not tolerate evildoers, and this coupled with his hotblooded nature and his overdramatic stylings whilst operating as Hopper King make him seem like a true comic book hero. Despite his boisterous nature, Yoshi is actually rather intelligent; before his conversion he was at university studying advanced biochemistry, and he has a flair for mechanics too. Aside from justice, his number one love in life is motorcycles, and if he's not out fighting evil he is most likely fixing up his bike.[/*]
[*]Skills: Yoshi is a skilled unarmed fighter, his fighting prowess honed over two decades of superheroics. He is notably rather intelligent, having majored in advanced science as well as being a pretty good mechanic. Surprisingly, he's a pretty good cook, to the point that the occassional jokes he makes about eventually settling down and opening a steak restaurant seem like something that could actually happen. Yoshi is fully fluent in both Japanese and English.[/*]
[*]Abilities: Even without transforming into Hopper King, Yoshi's cyborg body makes him stronger than most men (reaching the peak of human ability, making him much stronger than his slight frame would imply). Many of his organs have either been replaced or enhanced by cybernetics; he possesses a second bionic heart which increases the efficiency of his bloodflow and allows his muscles to work longer and harder, his lungs have been replaced by cybernetic ones that filter out toxins and allow him to operate in low-oxygen environments, his bionic eyes allow him to see both infrared and ultraviolet in addition to giving him excellent low-light vision, his ears grant him a degree of superhearing as well as giving him perfect balance and near-immunity to motion sickness, and he is able to operate at peak efficiency with only three hours of sleep per day.

By revealing the belt fused to his body, spinning the gear on the buckle, performing an elaborate series of hand gestures and yelling [i]"HENSHIN!"[/i], Yoshi transforms into the super cyborg, Hopper King! Well, the last two steps aren't actually necessary but he thinks it makes him look cool and after all these years no-one wants to question him about it anymore. With a burst of light, his armour suddenly appears over his body, increasing his durability to the point that not only will small arms fire not affect him, but he can be caught in the middle of a moderately sized explosion and survive, even though this will take a [i]lot[/i] out of him. His already formidable strength is boosted to superhuman levels, allowing him to bend steel bars and, with a little strain, lift small cars over his head. Most notable in this respect, however, is the increase of strength in his legs; not only does this grant him the ability to jump over houses in a single bound, but it understandably makes his kicks really, [i]really[/i] hurt. His helmet enhances his senses even more, the bug-like eyes increasing the range of his vision, protecting him from blinding lights and allowing him to see clearly even in complete darkness. The antennae act as a sort of radar, allowing him to detect the presence of others and giving him a sort of sixth sense that makes it very difficult to take him by surprise.[/*]
[*]Equipment: Yoshi tends to fight unarmed, preferring to use his cyborg strength rather than any weaponry to take down opponents. However, he does have one notable piece of equipment: His custom motorcycle, the [url=http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120224083451/kamenrider/images/e/ec/Jetsliger.jpg]Mach Tornado,[/url] which has been modified with a powerful rocket engine that allows it to move many times faster than a regular motorcycle.[/*]
[*]Brief Backstory: For over two decades, the super cyborg Hopper King has fought for justice with such passion and zeal that it is no wonder that he has become Japan's most famous and celebrated hero. But before he became Hopper King, he was Ishinomori Yoshi, university student, amateur motorcycle mechanic and superhero fanboy. Whilst he idolized the heroes that he saw on the news, and watched in anime and tokusatsu shows, he never thought he would one day be one himself. And if he did, he would probably have prefered to become one via a different method... One day, over twenty years ago, Yoshi was returning from a night class only to suddenly be accosted and knocked unconscious by an unknown assailant. When he woke up, he was strapped to an operating table in room he didn't recognize. As it turned out, the university he had been attending had been infiltrated by Ordo Scientifica, who were searching for candidates to transform into powerful cyborg soldiers to serve their purposes. Against his will, Yoshi had been modified into an enhanced human, supposedly the first in a line of warriors who would follow the orders of OS unquestionably. By some quirk of fate, though, he had awoken before the final, most delicate procedure could be initiated, mental programming to brainwash him into being unswervingly loyal to OS, and as soon as he realized that something sinister was afoot he quickly made his escape, his new cyborg body and the element of surprise giving him the upperhand against those who had turned him into this.

Realizing that he needed to make the most of his unfortunate circumstances, Yoshi began using his cybernetic body as a weapon against those who would do injustice, becoming just like the heroes he had always admired, and over the years his fame as the super cyborg Hopper King has increased. Currently, he is easily Japan's most well known and beloved hero, as well as a member of both the IFJ and Japan's premier superhero team, Chouriki Action. Due to the sudden influx of worldwide villains arriving in Greenfield, Yoshi has headed there to investigate just what is going on. Soon, very soon, those who would do injustice in the pleasant midwestern city would have to face the righteous fists of the super cyborg, Hopper King![/*]
