This power works instantly and essentially drags them back down to the level of a normal human. Any powers already in use abruptly cease. As this power directly affects crystals, any crystal-based method of preventing the shutdown will fail. This ability has a maximum range of fifty metres and works by making a metaphysical connection from his crystal to the target's. Harada can target up to three people at a time, and once his control is loosened the powers return to the user. [b]Weapons:[/b] Harada carries with him an HK MK23 SOCOM handgun with a combination taclight and a suppressor. He also carries a spare HK USP Compact just in case the SOCOM is removed or lost. Both weapons are chambered in .45ACP and he always carries plenty of ammo. For the rare close up and personal encounter, he carries a pop-out switchblade. He also owns a .22 caliber hunting rifle which can be dismantled and carried in pieces in a briefcase in case he needs to serve as a marksman or sniper. [b]Personality:[/b] Harada is generally congenial and calm, capable of remaining cool under stress and fawning to superiors to appear obedient. When dealing with enemies, he tends to be condescending and demanding while still retaining his calm tone. He possesses control freak tendencies, very much desiring respect and wanting to be in charge, and dislikes it when he is undermined or outmaneuvered. Some might consider him to be slimy. While it is difficult to anger him, once he does lose his temper the results tend to be loud and explosive. He is fond of classical music and slow jazz and builds towers out of playing cards in his spare time. [b]History:[/b] Daisuke Harada was once a respected police officer, despite his occasional protests against the precinct for not giving him enough leeway. However, after one incident where he snapped and killed a suspect, he was out on his ass and lucky not to face criminal charges. With this... insult clouding his mind, he joined up with the Gryphes family as an enforcer. His discovery of his magehood came as a complete shock, but he quickly learned to adapt to the power that fit flawlessly with his own desire for control. Perhaps in the Gryphes Family, people would finally learn to respect him. [b]Other:[/b] [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mz4uDncAqu4[/url]
