[hider= Asahi Goroshi / Arms Slave] [b]Appearance (Real Life):[/b] [img]http://i.imgur.com/EEQy61H.jpg[/img] [b]Height[/b]: Five feet five inches [b]Weight[/b]: 214lb [b]Hair Color[/b]: Black [b]Eye Color[/b]: Brown [b]Name[/b]: Asahi Goroshi [b]Age[/b]: 15 [b]History[/b]: Asahi is the younger brother of Retsu, but more importantly, the only son of their crime family. Ever since he was born he was spoiled and given practically everything he wanted, so long as he was willing to show some effort for it. And even then, he never really had to show much effort. Asahi was taught to enjoy these gifts, but understand that they came with a price. And a price that Asahi would have to pay is loyalty: One day he would have to take up his family's business. With all it's glory, and all it's horror. Asahi's training began when he was young. He was given a cat when he was five, and like any child enjoyed the pet. Asahi was also friends with many of the children of his father's workers, and saw himself something akin to a leader. He liked the power he had, even if that power wasn't his own. Until he was about ten years old. Asahi's pet cat was killed, and he was told that one of his friends had killed it. This was a test on Asahi's part, but that didn't change his reaction. He found the boy and attacked him in anger, with such fury and spite that if it was any other child Asahi would have been taken away for violent behavior. But this was what his father wanted; he wanted to see Asahi be willing to unleash his anger on others. To not allow himself to be stepped on. Going to school, Asahi continued to flex his authority over others. He was a bully to put it plainly; he would hurt others, boys and girls, to get what he wanted. He even would threaten teachers after he played nice and got to know them, then used his father's connections to leverage his power over them. For those who did as he commanded, Asahi was a kind and generous boy. Because those who were his enemies never lasted long enough to suffer for more then a few days. When Asahi was 13 years old his parents got him into the Deep Ground system, and with his own little gang of misfits he started to bring his grief into the game world. He created a band known as "The War Machine", just a bunch of outlaws who went about attacking others for no reason but fun. However he was soon stopped by a band known as the "Sweepers". Asahi and The War machine held out for almost a year before their numbers grew too thin, and Asahi kept facing crushing defeats. Enraged he continued to battle until and offer was made: he could join the Sweepers. They saw his potential, and knew that he was no longer a threat now that his own people had chosen to run away from their regular ass whooping. Asahi hated to admit it, but he lost. So he was willing to join the Sweepers... And got tangled up in a new mess. [b]Personality[/b]: Asahi's two-faced, but both sides are the real him. To his friends and most of everyone else he's a caring kid who just wants to make sure you're happy. He's got more money then sense and a lot of heart. He might be a bit too clingy and really bites off more then he can chew, but overall he has good intentions. For everyone who chooses to pick on him or make it clear that you're his enemy, Asahi is a vindictive motherfucker. He isn't afraid of using his family connection to screw you over, and is insanely good at arrange "accidents". Sometimes he'll just skip right over that and get himself and a couple of guys to beat the shit out of you when you're are home. Asahi is nice, but by no means is he soft. In Deep Ground this changes a bit. He's much more prone to violence, with an "kill first and ask questions later" mentality. It's always about the fight for him. He is oddly honorable however: He'll never run away, he'll never surrender, but he abides by duels and can be a good sport. He isn't afraid to go all out on weaklings or opponents stronger then himself. While he certainly does get annoyed by griefers and other PKers, he knows that he's not much better then they are. And as a Sweeper he at least tries to protect newbies and make sure they have fun, more so if they're friends of his.

He can make one additional attack action per round. Chain Catch - Arms Slave can use the chains on his body to pull a target towards him.

Arms Slave will also be the only one harmed by enemies if he has allies within his aura.

While treated with respect by most of the underlings, within the immediate family she is ignored at best. A literal red-headed stepchild, Restu had no future in trying to advance within the ranks of her family, and was likely just going to be traded off as a mistress for one of her father's friends. Not wanting that future, made her plans to escape as early as ten years old. Retsu wanted nothing to do with the sick scam that was Deep Ground. Like her fate with her family, it was nothing more then a false pretense of chance, where those who succeed in life are simply the lucky ones born into greatness. Deep Ground may claim that only those who work hard would heart a place in the world, but to Retsu one's ability to murder others in a game is hardly a reasonable means to advance one's self in society. And yet thousands of kids play with all their might, and despite Retsu's own dislike of it, they will succeed even if Retsu doesn't play their game. If anything if she doesn't, her own wretched future would be fulfilled. So Retsu plays Deep Ground, but only for the intent to break it down. Retsu started to learn how to code at a young age. It was something she found herself drawn towards during her loneliness. It was certainly hard, and indeed she learned nothing useful until she was part of Deep Ground. There she joined with a small group who claimed to be nothing more then roleplayers who'd rather play Deep Ground's story then just the PvP environment. And what was their story? They were going to destroy the world. They... Were the Sweepers. They insisted they were essentially a Blue Guild that protects players, but the Sweepers used exploits and straight up illegal programs to not only get an upper hand on their enemies, but even track them down in real life and take out their players. They, like Retsu, felt sicken by the entitlement and debauchery brought about from Deep Ground. In a short time Retsu learned their ways, discovering the true hierarchy of the Sweepers. But the leader of the Sweepers were small potatoes. He, at most, simply wanted vengeance against those who wrong him in Deep Ground. Retsu dreamed bigger. She wanted to crash Deep Ground, shatter their world and make people really work towards success. She wanted to be freed from the foolish system of their society. She nearly did it too. But somehow word got out about what she and the Sweepers were doing. At the same time, there was pandemonium with the guilds. It was a complete disaster, and not one that Retsu intended. By the time the dust settled Deep Ground was shot down for a month, the Sweepers were disbanded,the former leader was arrested for tempering with the system, and many guilds fell into disparity. But that didn't stop Retsu. She was still alive and kicking. Slowly, she gathered her forces together. Despite being officially disbanded, the Sweepers had made themselves a public name, one that many would emulate. Most see them as heroes; people who are willing to stand up to the guilds and fighting against Outlaws. And they still do, the street-level ones anyways. But higher up the hierarchy, there's darkness. Retsu wasn't about to give up her goals just yet. [b]Personality: [/b] Restu is friendly enough, if you don't mind her snark and arrogance. She's not really one to tolerate someone else haughty attitude and can be quite petty. She doesn't make threats, and if she says she will do something she will, and if she can't, she'll do the next best thing. A determined and strong-willed girl, but also one who knows that weakness will be exploited, and it would be better for her to exploit weaknesses first before being exploited herself. Nothing is sacred to her; only what is most efficient.

Dead Thrall - Dark Wrath channels her energy into a corpse of her choice and allows it to become her minion. It retains all the ability of it's former life but will fight on her behalf.

Raising one dead thrall is only a one minute cooldown, but two dead thralls is a three minute cooldown. Death Ward - Dark Wraith can channel a life-sucking aura in a wide area (Thirty Feet) around her, passively draining enemies of their life force and giving it to her Dead Thralls. Up to 10% of their health is stolen and given to each of her Dead Thralls from every enemy within the aura for every minute. Additionally any of her minions who die within the Death Ward can be resurrected again by Dark Wraith if she can use her Dead Thrall ability within the minute the minion dies.
