While this affords Kazuma no range, it provides unparalleled defense and his strength is increased substantially as well. The gauntlet area notably has sharp ends over the fingers, allowing for slashing attacks should blunt force not be enough to handle a situation.[/color]

[b]Personality[/b]
[color=darkorchid]Kazuma can be described as sly and practical. He looks out for himself and only himself. To that end he holds no sympathy or empathy for anyone else. He will simply use others as he needs to, putting on a facade of friendliness and weakness in order to build trust so that later he can exploit it. Kazuma has no qualms with killing people and will do so as frequently as he has to if it will improve his situation. Above all else he wishes to find a way to escape Kyushu alive. He will ally himself with other Onyxians and survivors and use them towards that goal, only to slaughter them later when they cease to be useful. He will attempt to feign innocence to Hunters but he is quick to attack them should they detect who he is. While Kazuma is smart and cunning he is also confident and self-absorbed, looking at the world with a narrow view. Once he has decided how something is, then that is how it always will be. His mind cannot be changed once it is made up. He will carve a bloody path through Invalids, survivors, and Hunters alike to get away from the cursed city, and he will act like he has done nothing wrong through the entire massacre.[/color]

[b]History[/b]
[color=darkorchid]Kazuma was born with wealth. His father was a business tycoon that was never able to spend time with Kazuma and his mother was a woman of leisure that elected not to spend time with him. The boy grew up educated but entitled, never establishing a strong emotional basis with any of his close family or even developing any friends. He was a loner throughout his private schooling, ignoring everyone else by his own choice. He even had rejected several girls, which only further bolstered his own ego and his opinion of his standing in the world. In short: a spoiled brat grew into an entitled prick.

By the time Kazuma had graduated college (studying abroad at Oxford, no less), he was guaranteed a position in his father's pharmaceutical company. He immediately went to work in a management position in the laboratory at Kyushu. Of course he wasn't a well-received supervisor but he was the son of the CEO so his position was secure. He bought an entire apartment complex outside the suburb area of Kyushu, renovating the entire top floor to be one single penthouse suite that he would live in while the rest of the complex was only brought to a middle-class standard. Life was going well, Kazuma was doing fine on his own and was prepared to take over Yanagi Medicine within the next few years or so... when everything went to hell.

Unlike the panicked masses, Kazuma was quick to act. He was at the Yanagi Medicine laboratory when the attack occurred and he was quick to flee to his penthouse when the chaos began to ensue. After taking a precautionary amount of antibiotics, Kazuma was quick to realize he hadn't been infected by whatever disease had spread. Or at any rate he wasn't afflicted in the same way the others were. His blood had turned black, but his body did not falter. There was safety and comfort in his penthouse but it wasn't enough. The city was becoming dangerous. Kazuma had no weapons, no martial training, and was thin and weak. He wouldn't survive long. He had to escape.

But he couldn't leave his penthouse as he was. The Invalids were outside his door, crawling around the apartment complex beneath him. He would have to wait for help, for some kind of rescue. But as time went on none ever came. Kazuma exercised, getting into shape. He used his free time to improve himself, for after a while he knew that he would have to rely on himself to escape Kyushu. It was during this time that he eventually discovered that there was more about him that had changed other than his blood. His body was able to grow into shape at incredible speed, taking only a few weeks of basic strength training to become completely fit. Then he realized that he could control his own blood to an extent.

Clad in armor of blackened blood, Kazuma broke out of his home and tore through the Invalids that had raided the complex. The blood was hard and dense, protecting him from injury while giving him a platform to smash and slash the mutated creatures with ease. Once free of his own prison he made a run for it. Or rather: he got in his car and drove for it. Only by now it was too late. Kyushu was walled off, separated from the world. His car was fired upon the moment it got remotely near the surrounding wall, forcing Kazuma to ditch it and run. All the Hunters saw that day was a man completely covered in black. And thus began the story of The Black Man.

Kazuma took shelter that night with a small group of survivors. They too had wanted to escape the city but were forced to flee from the wall for fear of being gunned down. He stayed with them for a couple days before they encountered another Onyxian. This man was deranged, angry and delirious from running out of food several days ago. He slaughtered the group, bar Kazuma. Fearing for his own survival, Kazuma used his own black blood to fight back, killing the assailant. It was then he realized that nobody could be trusted. Nobody else in the group was able to protect him, he had to fight for himself. As well there were maniacs in the city that sought to take his life. Humans were just as dangerous as the Invalids. He couldn't trust anybody but himself.

He began wandering on his own, hopping between bands of survivors as he went. He couldn't stand it any longer. The chaos, the upset to his perfect life. He had to get out of Kyushu. And he had to get out even if it meant he was the only one who got to live. Kazuma would stay with survivors to live off their supply of food and their shelter, and when they had nothing left to provide he would leave. When it came time to defend himself he would strike without mercy and with no regard to collateral damage. A reputation began to form around what people now call[/color] [color=black][i]The Black Man[/i][/color][color=darkorchid]. Thankfully Kazuma has been able to keep his identity a secret, mainly by killing anyone who learned he was The Black Man. And it is a good thing too, as rumors have spread among Hunters and Survivors about The Black Man. Some believe he is just an advanced form of Invalid, some say he is an Onyxian that has absorbed many other Onyxians. But one thing that isn't debatable is his record. The Black Man has been seen killing hordes of Invalids and has been known to kill any he has caught witnessing him in action. He even has a track record of killing unlucky Hunters that found him in the middle of the night. Nobody knows who he is, and Kazuma wants to keep it that way. While his name and face are unattached to the bloody rampages of The Black Man he can pretend to be a helpless survivor, trapped within the walls of Kyushu and willing to give anything to escape to safety. Willing to [i]do[/i] anything to escape.[/color]

[b]Skills[/b]
[color=darkorchid]While untrained in any form of martial art, Kazuma is a nightmare to face through his sheer strength, durability, and brutality. He has been educated in medicine and he knows the way the body works, so he knows [i]exactly[/i] what he has to damage to bring a human down. He has decent management skills and is bi-lingual, speaking both Japanese and English thanks to his time in the UK. He is quick to learn and quick to adapt, allowing him to pick up various survival skills since the outbreak first began. He has developed a "sense" for Kyushu, allowing him to "feel" when there is something dangerous about to happen. This makes him quick to detect Invalids and Hunters. He is also skilled at lying and deception, being able to perfectly feign normalcy while it benefits him. That doesn't make him easy to befriend, because no matter how harmless he may seem he will still be a jerk, but it allows him to infiltrate groups without any trouble and integrate in little time.[/color]

[b]Other[/b]
[color=darkorchid]Kazuma used to wear glasses out of necessity, being farsighted his entire life before the Onyx virus. He now no longer needs them, but keeps them to help maintain an image of innocence and weakness. Likewise he uses his name and stature as ways to identify himself as an upper-class citizen, further maintaining his validity as a "survivor."[/color]
