[b]Name:[/b] Ziro [b]Universe:[/b] Original sci-fi [b]Race:[/b] Genetically modified human (GMH) [b]Age:[/b] 22 [b]Tier:[/b] Powered [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Height:[/b] 6'2'' [b]Weight:[/b] 212 lbs [b]Appearance:[/b] [hider=Ziro][img]http://s9.postimg.org/cynlk4mdb/Ziro.jpg[/img][/hider] [b]Skills:[/b] [i]Scientific Genius -[/i] Ziro has vast knowledge in all fields of science, though his specialty is biology. He can typically understand how high-tech devices work upon seeing them operate. [i]Military Training -[/i] Ziro has been trained in the proper use of all major firearms, and is able to shoot with deadly accuracy. He has also received training in command sambo for unarmed combat. [b]Powers:[/b] [i]GMH -[/i] As a genetically modified human, Ziro's physical attributes surpass that of an average human all across the board. He has enhanced strength, speed, stamina, agility, balance, and dexterity. [i]Tough Skin -[/i] Ziro has tough, leathery skin that offers better resistance against cuts and scratches than normal human skin. [i]Predator Splicing -[/i] Ziro has been given various predatory traits. He has elongated canines and a powerful jaw, his nails have been hardened and sharpened into claws, and his olfactory system has been given an overall enhancement [i]All-seeing Eyes -[/i] Ziro's eyes can focus to any range of the electromagnetic spectrum, allowing him to see radio waves, infra-red, x-rays, etc. at will. [i]Tentacles -[/i] There is a nasty-looking scar on the palm of each of his hands. These scars open up and unleash 10 ft long plated tentacles. Ziro has full control over the tentacles, just as he does any other body part. The tentacles are strong enough to crush bone and can pierce thin iron plating. The plates on the tentacles are made of small chitin scales. [i]Adrenaline Rush -[/i] Ziro can pump adrenaline into his body at will. This sharpens his already superb senses and reaction time, and dulls the pain of his injuries, but also dulls his intellect. During an adrenaline rush, Ziro fights more like a wild animal than a trained soldier. [b]Weapons/Equipment:[/b] [i]X-ray Glasses -[/i] Ziro's glasses have a tiny button. When pressed, the glasses will emit X-rays, allowing Ziro to see through certain objects. [i]Knife Syringe -[/i] Ziro wields a custom knife. The blade can either lock into place to function as a standard knife, or fold into the handle revealing a syringe. The base of the handle acts as a pump for the syringe. There is also a compartment in the handle where he can put custom capsules (see below). He can either use the syringe to directly inject a substance into a target, or he can expel the substance with the blade locked in place to coat the knife. Naturally, the substances are more potent if injected directly. Each capsule is good for one attack. If the attack misses, the capsule is spent. [i]Custom Capsules -[/i] Pockets full of small capsules line the inside of his lab coat, some defensive, some offensive. He carries a total of 12 capsules: [u]3x Local Anesthetics -[/u] Upon entering the blood stream, this substance numbs the effected area. Effects range from complete limpness, to impaired control. [u]2x Antivenin Cocktail -[/u] A cocktail of antivenins that Ziro made that can negate the effects of virtually any venom. [u]2x Anticoagulant -[/u] A substance that reduces blood's ability to clot. Wounds that are contaminated with this substance will bleed profusely. [u]2x Pain Killer -[/u] As an alternative to his adrenaline rush, Ziro can inject himself with a substance that will temporarily relieve pain without sending him into an frenzy. [u]3x Nociceptive Stimulant -[/u] A chemical that does no actual damage, but triggers all pain receptors that it comes in contact with. The result is pure pain. [b]Bio:[/b] For several decades, GMH experimentation was banned by the government for ethical reasons. However, a private organization approached the scientist behind the project and personally funded the project, building a facility on Europa in the government's blind spot. The scientist ultimately made a clone of himself... with a few modifications. He called this clone Ziro. Ziro was a perfectly healthy clone, displaying even greater intelligence than the accomplished scientist who created him, and greater physical feats than professional athletes. However, a smart guy like Ziro knew that once the organization was finished testing his capabilities, he would be spending the rest of his life in a giant test tube, serving as a template for the organization's future goals. So, Ziro killed the scientist and took his job. He now works two jobs: first as the head of the organization's R&D department, and second as the super-soldier prototype.
