[b]Character nickname:[/b] Ajax Diagorides

[b]Gender:[/b] Male

[b]Appearance:[/b]
Ajax is an olive skinned and tanned man who stands at 7 feet tall and weighs around 500 pounds of which only 10% is made up of fat, giving him an imposing, remarkably muscular body. More closely resembling a powerlifter than a fighter or a bodybuilder in figure, Ajax is barrel-chested, with thick, sinewy arms and robust legs which end in burly hands and feet and a log-like neck holding up a head as large as the rest of his body, with a prominent jaw and chin as well as dark brown eyes, short, curly black hair and a thick but not overly long beard, overall bearing more than a passing resemblance to the [url=http://i.imgur.com/qm1QrNU.jpg]Boxer of Quirinal[/url]. It’d be easy to mistake his build for being fat when covered by clothes, but the sheer definition of his muscles cannot be overstated and is readily obvious to anyone who lays eyes upon his exposed arms.

For clothing Ajax wears a white [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiton_%28costume%29]doric chiton[/url] which goes past the waist and ends just above the knees, strapped to his left shoulder with a pin. Rather than wear a normal girdle or sash, he instead wears a large brown leather belt with an oversized, circular golden buckle depicting an intricate [url=http://i.imgur.com/JVMYzmq.jpg?1]solar disk[/url] hoisted by a pair of lions and held up by a pair of eagles, with a laurel wreath above and an olive one underneath so that they form a nearly complete circle around it all, while the belt itself is decorated with carvings of palm branches. Ajax also wears brown leather, hobnailed, sandal-like boots called [url=http://imgur.com/a/a0yfp]caligae[/url] as well as a pair of cestus, strips of tough brown leather studded with iron and wrapped around the hands, wrists and up the forearm much like bandages to form crude gauntlets, with bands of fleece at the end to wipe away sweat and blood. Though they might pass for weapons, the truth is they don't really add anything, Ajax is strong and tough enough to not need them at all. Along the caligae and cestus, the white loincloth he wears underneath the chiton is as tough as he is.

[b]Alignment:[/b] Protagonist

[b]Skills before:[/b] Martial arts enthusiast (boxing in particular), knowledge of medieval arms and armor, vast knowledge of useless trivia about giant robots and other assorted nerdery, the ability to google rather than ask inane questions, several years’ experience playing soccer and rugby, fluent in spanish.

[b]Skills after (same as before but with the addition of):[/b]
-Pankration: Literally translated as "all of might", pankration was founded as a blend of boxing and wrestling with hardly any rules in order to satisfy the need for a "total contest" when it came to unarmed combat. Perhaps the first known "everything goes" style of martial arts, only biting and eye-gouging were not acceptable, any other technique and attack was free game, making pankration a brutal sport. Ajax is a superlative practitioner, using his own brand that takes advantage of his inhuman physical attributes.

[b]Powers:[/b]
-Herculean: As his physique might imply, Ajax is quite strong. Absurdly so, in fact. When you want to focus on muscles in such a setting where characters are readily defined as godlike and have a myriad of abilities, each of which one could base a character around more often than not, this is what you get. As strong as they come, across any universe, the upper limits of his sheer might remain to be seen and new heights are readily discovered as the previous ones are challenged. While he’s not particularly agile, the sheer power of his legs is enough to grant him explosive leaps and bounds that toss his body around faster than the eye can see as well as sustained dashes that can match low-level superspeed despite his mass.

-Indestructible: You can’t really have one without the other, can you? Ajax’s entire body is impossibly resilient, as tough as he is strong, and it’s not just his muscles acting as armor as one might believe. His skin receives no real damage when confronted with the most powerful assaults, magical or otherwise. Human weak points, such as the eyes, the nose, the ears, the throat, the groin, hitting the jaw in certain ways, attacking organs directly, joints, pressure points, none of these apply to him. You could try and fire a modern anti-tank rifle down his mouth or into his eye and it would be the same as shooting him anywhere else, laughably ineffective.

-Unstoppable: Ajax’s endurance is also otherworldly. While he can indeed still feel pain, especially for comedic purposes, he can easily shut it down and keep fighting unimpeded even if he runs into something that actually overcomes his vast defenses. He can fight at full steam for days on end with no ill effects before mild signs of exhaustion start appearing and it’d take a heavily prolonged, truly titanic effort to gas him out. He is also immune to harmful poisons, narcotics and the like, being able to take massive doses of lethal poisons, enough to instantly kill beings several times his size and weight, without being affected at all.

-Savage: Some martial artists strive for a skill that empties the mind, highly increasing one’s abilities and providing a state of being where one’s mind is like a fortress. Well, this is the other side of the coin. Ajax has the animalistic instincts of a savage beast. His mind, while hardly impenetrable, is ultimately impossible to bring under heel from things such as psionic irruptions or mind altering effects due to his sheer wild ferocity. Furthermore, these instincts allow him to more readily sense danger and even deception, particularly things such as illusions or hallucinations, which he can readily see through.

-Proud: Ajax is proud of himself. Proud of his strength, of the primitive, primal power it represents over power acquired through means such as money or influence. So much so, in fact, that he can pit his muscles against things that should be unaffected by mere brute force. He can use his body to inflict damage on things that would otherwise be unaffected by something as base as a human body and can also use his power to break through things such as tractor beams, ZPM fields, hold spells, psychokinetic assaults and the like. This power also cancels out attacks that would ignore physical defenses, forcing them to directly contend with his impossibly resilient body.

-Restrained: The rather spectacular ability to not kill things and break stuff all the time despite being mind-bogglingly powerful. Ajax can control himself to such a degree that even his deadly strikes will not kill unless it’s otherwise noted that he’s going for killing blows, in which case things are likely getting reduced to a pulp. It’s just not fun if you’re always stomping everyone and everything and you can’t even have a rematch because you just spattered the other guy all over the wall.

[u]From the first set of upgrades gained out of OoT Hyrule:[/u]
-Relentless: Ajax can now fight to the best of his abilities anywhere. The sky, deep underwater, the void of space, any battlefield you try to use to your advantage. He can ignore impediments such as lack of gravity and oxygen or magical effects specific to the location, anything that might render his attacks less effective, letting him operate under normal conditions at all times.

-Perfect control: Ajax is able to perfectly exert and manipulate the force his body could produce at any time as long as he can move a single muscle, giving him access to a varied kinetic arsenal that extends beyond his previous ability to cause shockwaves and the like. Attacks done in this way still benefit from his "Proud" ability that lets his body affect things it shouldn't be able to. 

-Tag-team champion: Despite his obsession with man to man battles and finding someone who can fight him evenly or even defeat him, Ajax is no stranger to team battles. He's had a long career of both being part of a legitimate tag team and adventuring with groups of people and can thus create deadly combo attacks with anyone who he identifies as an ally.

[b]Equipment:[/b]
-Championship belt: A magic belt and symbol of Ajax's many accomplishments in beating things up. As tough as he is, if not even tougher, it cannot be forcibly removed from him and he can summon it to his waist on command. With it, Ajax can regenerate his clothing at will, since it has a habit of getting destroyed or discarded in fights. It also serves as a videogame inventory of sorts, allowing Ajax to store a number of things "within" the belt and produce them on command.

-Jug of intoxication: Drinking is kind of a must for a strong, manly man character, isn't it? What kind of a big guy can’t hold his booze? An [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oenochoe]Oenochoe[/url], a smooth greek winejug as big as Ajax's head made out of polished bronze that contains a good amount of what can only be described as one of the vilest concoctions ever served, in the shape of a red wine. 

Its alcohol content of 97%, or 192 proof, defies science and its extremely potent taste made up of 7 flavors combined into a whole is almost impossible to explain, particularly since of those flavors, 5 of them are, in order, heavy mixtures of: opioids, depressants, stimulants, entactogens and hallucinogens which trigger every single conflicting impulse in your brain all at once.

The sixth flavor, best described as a bitter, horrible feeling of crushing hopelessness, is but a single drop of panacea, the miraculous potion which serves to cure all ailments. Of course, considering the effects of the rest of this concoction, it doesn't do much except prevent all the other ingredients from killing the drinker. The final taste is that of a fairly strong red wine, quite pleasant.

[b]Other:[/b]
Ajax started out as a pen and paper character, a Fighter who I narrated as using pankration. He was a physical powerhouse but also a skilled martial artist and sheer luck in dice rolls across the campaign meant that he never came under any serious risk and more or less punched his way through all opposition without much trouble. The group's GM even used the same character as an NPC in completely unrelated games on occasion, and he still never seemed to roll badly, turning him into a joke legend of sorts in my group.
