[b]Name:[/b] Sigmund Collins [b]Age:[/b] 29 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Race:[/b] Genetically Altered Human [b]Random descriptors:[/b] One armed, photosensitive, overly aggressive. Sigmund is animalistic and wild, with only a bit of self control when on the battlefield. He doesn't fight like a man, he fights like a predator. [b]Character Tier:[/b] Intermediate (Scales to match high tiers) [b]Character Type:[/b] Critical Character - Active Multiverse Participant [b]Physical Description:[/b] Let's put this in a listed format. [list] [*]Height: 5'11"[/*] [*]Weight: 1,970 lbs[/*] [*]Skin Tone: Lightly tanned with pale scar patches up his entire left side.[/*] [*]Hair: Blue-black in color, the left half of his head is bald and he cannot grow hair, the right side is long and hangs down over his ear. (Imagine Skrillex's hairstyle, but fuller.)[/*] [*]Eyes: Kind of narrow, usually held in a squint. He has polycoria in both of his eyes, meaning that he has multiple pupils. What color is visible in his eyes is a pale yellow-orange.[/*] [*]Build: Rather thin but every single muscle and vein is visible in his body. Except on his left pectoral and arm. Can't exercise that bit of your body without a hand.[/*] [/list] Now onto more detailed descriptions. First and foremost, you will notice that Sigmund is missing his left arm. From the elbow down is is missing, leaving only a grizzly scar and the joint in its place. Though he covers up his left side with clothing it is noteworthy to say that his entire left half is covered in scars, thick scar material that resembles burn marks in the shape of the claw of some great beast. His face is not clean shaven but he doesn't have a scruffy beard, the right half of his face has a bit of stubble from neglecting to shave. [b]Personality Description:[/b] Changed by the experience when he was let loose into the world, and by the power given to him. He is wild and violent, but not evil. Sigmund doesn't fight to protect others, nor does he fight to kill others. Sigmund fights to find foes who can give him a good battle. There is no reason for him to fight for the cause of others, the powers gifted to him have changed his entire view on life and the world, giving him the mindset that all living beings are only whole when engaged in two activities. Love and War. [b]Skills, powers and abilities:[/b] Take into account when reading this, Sigmund only has one arm. All abilities here are related to the empowerment given to him by the experiments and the Lion Aspect. Superhuman Strength [Intermediate]: Powered by war and a love for battle, Sigmund's strength is supreme on the field of battle. Able to lift 30 tons with his one arm, he can utilize this strength in his violent fighting style. Superhuman Speed [Intermediate]: With feet as fleet as the wind, Sigmund can outrun any land animal and some flying animals. He can run at a sustained 125 mph. He is capable of reaching speeds of 335 mph in full sprint. Superhuman Agility [Intermediate]: Sigmund can leap 35 feet from a standing position and vertically jump 30 feet from the same. Sigmund can maintain footing on even the most unsteady of platforms and leap from wall to wall with a bit of effort. Superhuman Stamina [Intermediate]: Sigmund is no pushover when it comes to combat, he's the sort of fighter who will stand his ground until his feet give out. Even if his body is exhausted he will continue to fight, no matter what. Sigmund will bite, scratch and grab at his foes hair if it means that he can win the fight. Superhuman Reaction [Intermediate]: His reaction speed is 7x that of a normal human, he can catch arrows from the air and throw them back faster than they flew out of the bow. Superhuman Durability [Intermdiate]: Sigmund's dense. No, not dumb. Dense as in actually dense, his body is super heavy and condensed material. Everything he eats is converted straight into body mass and muscle without actually growing in size. Sigmund can take a beating, like damn he can take a beating. You could break every bone in his face and he'd still smile at you. The density of his body enhances his durabilty to far beyond that of a human, .50 rifle rounds cause only skin deep wounds. His body can receive strikes up to twice his own strength before breaking, On a comparative scale, Sigmund's physical strength is around 30x that of peak human strength, using 1 ton lifting weight as a reference. So Sigmund's durability is 30x that of peak human durability. Persistence combined with high durability allows him to take hits that would kill humans instantly without flinching. Superhuman Senses [Intermediate]: 5 miles of visual clarity, 10 miles of accurate smell, 5 miles of acute smell. Lion Aspect [Low]: Though in its visual form, the Lion Aspect is Sigmund's body venting the power that was given to him by the energy from the hair. The lion aspect wraps around his body in a cloak, the face of a lion obscures his own face. This cloak is transparent from his point of view, but it completely changes his appearance when it covers him. When Sigmund enters combat he is immediately cloaked in the Lion Aspect. In effect, the cloak itself does nothing but obscure his appearance. It's what the cloak allows him to do after it is deployed. His aspect surrounds him from head to toe in every shade of yellow to brown, shifting and changing color at random. It is transluscent, allowing you to partially see his figure though it, but it obscures just enough to hide subtle movements. Lion Aspect Illusory Movement [Low]: As I said before, the cloak obscures his face and body, changing his appearance to those who are fighting him. In combat he can alter the way his movements are percieved for a moment. With his speed and reflexes he throws a feign punch and dips away to throw a genuine punch. Those who have quick eyes can see that he moves out of his aspect, but it can still catch you off guard. This is not a defensive ability, this is a deceptive offensive ability. This cannot be spammed. One turn, one feign, next turn, no feign. Lion Aspect Strike [Intermediate]: For a moment, the Lion Aspect cloak vanishes and wraps around his one hand. When Sigmund delivers a Lion Aspect Strike it causes a large pressure wave that for a single moment creates a vacuum and temperatures hot enough to boil lead. This effect is instantaneous and on contact with anything that he strikes. No, this does not cause your body to boil, it causes an incredibly painful burn mark and tears up your flesh. This punch requires him to actually focus on it, he cannot spam this punch. One turn, one aspect strike, next turn, no aspect strike. If it misses he can continue swinging it, it does not disipate until it makes contact. Power Scaling [High]: When faced with a foe or group of foes that he cannot actually compete with, the Lion Aspect empowers his body and improves his combat abilities to beyond their peak. [b]This power can only be activated under these circumstances, it also has a massive downside:[/b] [hider=Circumstances]When engaged in combat with a High Tier Character, or three Intermediate Tier Characters. This is not a desperation play ability, this power can not and will not be activated in combat with a single equal tiered opponent. If the battle wears on for too long and his foe does not go down quickly, his body will begin to disintegrate. First goes his durability, then his speed, then strength, and finally his senses. In that order. Once all of those aspects falls away his body will turn to dust. There is no way for him to prevent this besides winning the battle. If his opponent flees, the battle is finished and the scaling drops. This is its greatest downfall, if he doesn't catch up with a fleeing opponent he will lose his enhanced abilities. Once his body stops scaling to match his foes he will be exhausted and all of his abilities will work at half efficiency. He cannot scale multiple times in one battle, nor can he scale again shortly after a battle with one foe.[/hider] Superhuman Strength [High]: His muscle density is fortified by the power scaling of his lion aspect. Growing in strength to compete with significantly stronger enemies or large groups of foes. His lifting weight rises to 60 tons sustained. Superhuman Speed [High]: Same with his strength, his leg muscles are made significantly more efficient than before. His movement speed spikes up to 250mph. He is capable of achieving 770mph in full sprint in this form. Superhuman Agility: [High]: As with the above, his agility increases to stunning levels. Sigmund can briefly run on walls at the same speed he can run on the ground, wall jumping becomes second nature, his balance and footing are impecable, his ability to leap long distances increases to 70 feet horizontal. His vertical jump is 60 feet. Superhuman Stamina [Low]: This actually falters when his power scales, Sigmund cannot last very long in this state. Anywhere from 12-15 turns, after that his body fails and he cannot continue fighting. Superhuman Reaction [High]: Sigmund reacts faster to stimuli now than he did before. Now at 15x human reaction speed, he could catch a sniper's bullet out of the air. Superhuman Durability [Low]: This falters as well, as the battle wears on he will gradually become more susceptable to damage. Little else compensates for this besides from the more volatile Lion Aspect. Though he can take punches from other high tiers, they cause more damage to him now than they would have before. His durability drops significantly, though he's still dense he now has a much more attuned set of nerves. Every strike on his body deals 3x what it would have previously. Meaning that a punch from an equally strong opponent deals as much damage as three strikes to the same area. His body quickly breaks in this form. Superhuman Senses [High]: Acute eyesight up to 10 miles, acute smell up to 20 miles, acute hearing up to 10 miles. Volatile Lion Aspect [Intermediate]: The lion aspect cloak completely obscures his face, now almost seeming completely alive. The aspect is no longer transluscent, it is completely opaque. The cloak still appears to be that of a lion and maintains its color. It does not obscure his vision, however. The heavier aspect defends against energy attacks, preventing as much as his own output from harming him. Volatile Lion Aspect Illusory Movement [Intermediate]: Works the same as before, but now moves at the same speed as his enhanced body. No effect when it makes contact with foes. Volatile Lion Aspect Strike [High]: The strike is significantly more powerful than before, creating a 5 foot pressure wave on contact with any material. When he uses it in this state the cloak does not drop, the head of a lion simply forms on his hand. This can be used in exactly three strikes before dropping. The temperature increases to 10k for a split second. Like before. This doesn't boil your flesh, this just causes a large and excruciating burn mark on the skin of the strike zone. [b]Character History:[/b] Take a hair fallen from a god, give it to a group of scientists who wish to understand the universe and our spirituality. Take a man who's jobless, homeless, penniless, and crippled. What happens when a man down on his luck is offered a sustained job, money, a place to live, and the possibility to walk again? He says "Fuck yes!" Let's take a step back, back to when he was younger. Born in Georgia, Sigmund's legs never developed. They were there but they could not support his body, this lead to a difficult early life bound to a wheelchair. As he got older and tried to get out on his own, he eventually he wound up unable to pay for his living arrangements. Pride prevented him from returning to his parents, and Sigmund was put on the streets. That's where his story really begins. Fate shined upon him when he saw a fight between two incredibly powerful beings in the streets. Sigmund ran for his life. Er. Rolled away for his life. About two months later, he was trying to find a job somewhere in the city. A little sign on a door in an alley. That's all it took to lead to Sigmund's birth as a warrior. Taking the sign and rolling inside he was met with the group of previously mentioned scientists. They informed him of a hair that they had found from one of the beings that had waged war in the streets. Even though he didn't realize it at the time, one of those beings was apparently a god. An actual god! (This is information that came to light later.) They took him in, gave him a place to live and conducted a long list of experments on him. Two years passed and Collins was subjected to the final test, a direct injection to his heart of the strange energy that the hair exuded. Sigmund's body convulsed and writhed and stretched in unnatural ways. Four hours, it was a four hour ordeal as Sigmund's body grew into that of a superman. Well, that's an exaggeration, but he felt like he could fight the world! The hair's energy changed him into a rather tall and thin man, using only the material that he had in his body, stretching and strengthenging it. Sigmund was unleashed. The hair had a number of adverse effects that can only be described as superpowers. These powers were his, and Sigmund was ecstatic. He had gone from a cripple to some sort of super being. It was another year before he could be released into the world, but he was more than happy to let them get all the information they could from him. After the final battery of tests he went off and immediately ran into, guess who? The source of the hair. Let's just say that didn't go too well. In the battle he lost his left arm from the elbow down and his entire left half was mutilated. It was not a good day, he had just been set loose after a year of waiting to be a normal functioning member of society or hell, even a hero. And immediately he was violently disfigured. Sigmund became a recluse for a few months but gave up on that, it was too boring for a guy who had superpowers. O'Veer became a relatively well learned with his list of abilities and took to the multiverse through a rumor he heard in some bar somewhere in Scotland. He wound up on Laeo-Laeo first and well, you'll see what happens there.
