There are limitations to this power: he can only shapeshift into things that are less than or equals to his total body mass, as such he cannot mimic stuffs like airplanes, ships, tanks, etc. Also, he is vulnerable to sudden drastic changes in temperature, which will cause him to lose control over his current appearance and turning back into his original form - a silvery, faceless Gentarian. Kenji is not able to manipulate any metal that are not part of his body.[/list] [list][*][i]Gentarian Physiology[/i] Kenji has some superpowers that are native to the extraterrestrial species of Gentar. These include: semi-invulnerability, enhanced strength, enhanced agility, enhanced endurance, and extended longevity.[/list] [list][*][i]Close Quarters Combat[/i] A skill that is deeply integrated into the body of every Gentarian, which gives them unparalleled fighting prowess using any kind of bladed weapons they can transform into. For Kenji, his most preferred type of blade is the scythe.[/list] [list][*][i]Mood Maker[/i] Not intentionally per se, but Kenji's awkwardly hilarious reactions while he tries to learn more about Earth customs tend to create some light entertainment for his teammates.[/list] [b][u]Background[/u]:[/b] [list][*][i]Setting Overview[/i] Gentar is a faraway planet located somewhere in Andromeda Galaxy. Its landscape, to describe using crude analogy, had a futuristic, cyberpunk-ish feel. Almost everything on the planet was made out of a [url=http://terminator.wikia.com/wiki/Mimetic_polyalloy]technorganic nanometal called Jenovium[/url]; its people, the Gentarians, had lived together with the abundance of this substance for eons and it eventually seeped into their blood, bestowing them the gift to manipulate the metal. However, the invasion of Gordanian had destroyed Gentar, and the surviving inhabitants were forced to flee from their home to travel across the stars. They were later known as "Galactic Nomads".[/list] [list][*][i]History[/i] Kenji's Gentarian name was Kadaj l'Cieus. After escaping from the Gordanian invasion on his home planet, he drifted across the endless universe in a coma state sealed in a life pod before he arrived on Earth, a planet in the Solar System situated in Milky Way, a neighboring galaxy to Andromeda. He woke up to find himself surrounded by something blue, then slowly realizing that he had landed in an ocean. He swarmed up to the shore and met a few diving enthusiasts who ran off, terrified after they looked at him: the Gentarians had a humanoid shape completely covered in a silvery substance, and none of them had a distinguishable face like human beings do. After that encounter with Earth people, he hid himself away from the eyes of humans, trying to understand this strange foreign world that would be his new home. One day he sneaked into a warehouse on the outskirts of a certain town, and he met a robot which looked almost like a real human. He touched it and copied its appearance, giving himself a cover that would allow him to truly live together with the people of Earth. He soon grew fond of his new look, though he still couldn't comprehend the occasional incidents where some females would try to get too intimate with him...[/list] [b][u]Personality[/u]:[/b] [indent][color=Gray](To be revealed in IC.)[/color][/indent] [b][u]Others[/u]:[/b] [list][*]He received his human name from a random chat with an otaku: the surname was from a character in the popular manga series [i]Bleach[/i], and his first name roughly means 'the next gladiator'. [*]The name of his home planet, Gentar, is derived by rearranging the french word for silver, [i]argent[/i].[/list]
