[hider=WIP] [b]Name: [/b] Andrew Star [b]Nicknames/Codename:[/b] Backup [b]Age: [/b] 35 [b]Gender: [/b] Male [b]Appearance:[/b] (Written or picture) 5'5" 150 [img]http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n60/demetriknighthawk/backup.png[/img] [b]Personality: [/b] [b]Biography/History:[/b] -- [b]Weapons: [/b] Guns: While a high melee opponent, he is not so stupid to not use a firearm. When the need arises, he carries two 45 long colts, the one on his hip is loaded with armor piercing rounds While the one on his thigh can safely fire .410 shotgun rounds. He prefers the revolver over an automatic because of no ejected shells to leave behind as evidence, not some cowboy thing. Cane: While it is impossible to have a tool for every situation, he can at least keep a few for just in case. When he was a police officer, he taught 'cane fu' to the elderly and disabled but was taught the ways of 'tiger hook swords' and so he blends the styles together. This cane, however, has a powerful shock baton in the lower portion for stunning the enemy long enough to finish them off. The cane itself lends practicality in a dozen different ways. With time and inspiration, he might find himself with several to chose from. [b]Items/Gadgets: [/b] "Supermesh" was a working title for this material being developed in STAR labs as the next great thing for solider defense. A body stocking with a polymer blend of multiple agents with the defensive rating of full kevlar but the weight and mobility of a wet-suit allows it to be worn under standard armor for increased protection when needed or else worn by itself when the situation requires it. There was one prototype suit developed but was assumed lost in a robbery by intergang whose group was later apprehended by Metropolis police force. --- [b]Strengths:[/b] Physically stronger than his body would suggest, he has been training since a child in the ways of [url=https://youtu.be/HfzuwZku6Eg?list=PLE2DB3EB41480906D]Choy Li Fut[/url] from his mother. It is the only martial art he knows even though most assume he would know Muay Thai once they know where his family is from. He served on the Metropolis Police Department for ten years and got into Special Crimes Unit early in his career. He learned their ways well and puts those skills to use daily, even if Gotham is no metropolis. Speaking Thai and English at home, he also studied Keznian in school trying to chase a girl as well as french when offered by the police force [b]Weaknesses:[/b] With his focus in close combat and point blank firefights, one of his biggest weaknesses is medium to long range engagements. While he knows how to breach and bypass standard locks, his skill set never taught him much about electronic security measures. When in operations, he drove the large troop transport vehicle and even as a civilian he keeps to a low maintenance, dependable, boat on wheels. He can drive from A to B and remembers the police vehicle training, but lets just call his driving skills 'rusty'. -- [b]Other:[/b] I'm trying really hard to not make a batman. [/hider]
