[b]Name:[/b] Kisaki Mao aka The Godfist [b]Species:[/b] Human Mutant [b]Appearance:[/b] Tall and muscular with tanned skin and black hair. His features are asian, and reflect his age. He looks about 32. His right arm is jet black, and black tendrils dig into his flesh at the shoulder. His face and body are covered in a variety of scars. He usually wears a brown robe, Jedi-style, under which he wears a simple linnen shirt and pants. [b]Personality:[/b] Stoic and focussed, Kisaki is a warrior first and foremost. He sees every obstacle as a challenge, and considers fighting an art. He seeks to perfect the art of combat, and to become a true master of war. He dislikes killing those he faces, and will often hold back to avoid seriously harming a weaker opponent. However, he believes that dying in battle is the only good way to die, and is prepared to kill those he fights. He takes his honour quite seriously, and considers it his duty to protect those with less power when possible. Despite his serious attitude, he loves talking, and often brags about his martial prowess. [b]Abilities:[/b] Martial Arts Master: Having been trained practically from birth, Kisaki is a master of three seperate branches of Kung Fu. The Tiger, Mantis and Dragon paths. He uses a style that utilizes techniques from all three of these schools, often adapting his stance to better suit his opponent. His method of fighting employs a heavy defence followed by brief bursts of hyper-aggressive offensive attacks. Rigorous training has also turned Kiski's body into a living weapon. His physical capabilities are near the peak of what a human can accomplish without supernatural aid, with incredible strength and speed. His body and bones are also quite durable, accustomed to taking strikes from powerful opponents. However, this strength and speed falls strictly within the human spectrum. Kineticism As his mutant power, Kisaki possesses the ability to absorb and control kinetic energy. He is able to absorb 80% of the kinetic energy of any system that touches him, and can control and manipulate this energy in a 5 cm radius around his body. While he is able to continuously absorb energy, there is a limit of how much energy his body can handle, and if he exceeds it he starts taking damage. Kisaki has mastered a variety of special techniques that utilize his mutant power, enhancing his combat capability. Dragon Form Technique The basic technique upon which Kisaki's combat style rests, this allows him to combat massively superhuman foes on an equal level. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Kisaki absorbs the force his target exerts on his fist during a punch and adds it to the force of a punch, increasing the strength of his punches by 80%. He also absorbs air friction, allowing him to move more rapidly and with less effort. When facing attacks that would harm him even at 20%, he releases bursts of kinetic energy that slow down the attack to a level he can tank, the cost of the slow being compensated by the absorbed energy. This massively boosts his physical prowess, and turns him into a superhuman combatant. But he has many more, unknown techniques. Right Arm of the Devil At some point in time Kisaki had his right arm blown off. In order to continue fighting, he made a deal with a devil he fought, and took it's arm in exchange for it's life. This arm is attached to his body and functions based on his biological systems, but it can survive and function without being provided with oxygen or nutrients. It's also about twice as strong as his normal strength, drawing additional power from demonic magic, and is able to channel his kineticism as well. Any artifact designed to combat demons or blessed by a being of pure Good will harm or weaken this arm, and while on holy ground this arm loses it's supernatural strength. It heals at a superhuman rate, and can fully regenerate over the course of a few days. [b]Equipment:[/b] Depends on the situation. Kisaki's robe is filled with heavy lead weights. He also has weights tied to his arms and legs to increase his striking power. When fighting for a cause instead of pleasure, he occasionally dons a heavy suit of armour forged from thick steel, and wields a giant sword called Siege. He also possesses a bag of healing herbs and poultices, and a Nokia. [b]Bio:[/b] As a child, Kisaki was raised by a cult of martial artists in a warrior culture. They lived in the modern world, but followed the path of older cultures. They believed that relying on outside means was foolish, and that people can only reach spiritual enlightenment by perfecting their physical forms first. Kisaki was a natural at martial arts, and soon rose to be a respected warrior within his clan. But when his powers surfaced the other members rejected him, believing it to be unnatural. He was cast out, but he was not dishonoured, as he was told to seek his own honour. Kisaki soon came to the conclusion that his power was merely an extension of his martial arts, a gift that had to be honed every bit as intensely as his physical body. So he trained his powers and fists together, seeking to perfect his use of this ability and to become the strongest warrior on the planet. He traveled the world, facing a variety of challenges, learning from victory and defeat in equal measure. Eventually he became a world renowned warrior, facing great beasts and defeating even demons with his power. At some point, after having gained both glory and riches, Kisaki became cocky. He challenged one of the Great Lords, godlike beings that ruled his world, to single combat. The being in question agreed, and Kisaki discovered that he was massively outmatched. He was beaten and broken with casual ease, and nearly lost his life attempting to face this being. However, he chose to sacrifice his life in order to land a single good hit on the Great Being, gathering more power than his body could contain. He managed to harm the being, and in doing so earned it's respect. It prevented him from dying, and restored his body. But it took his right arm as a reminder that pride is the fall of a warrior, before once more departing. While Kisaki acknowledges his defeat, he plans to develop his powers even further by traveling the Multiverse, and to eventually return and defeat the being that took his arm. Simultaneously he wishes to redeem himself from the sin of his arrogance, often putting himself through gruelling challenges and facing dangerous situations just to prove that his confidence is justified.
