The swamp drank the purified water and from it came fruitful life. The swamp became a forest.

On first impression, he appears human, but one quickly learns that there is more than meets the eye. [color=aba000][b]Disabilities[/b][/color] For every situation where the Holy One's life is lost, when he is resurrected, his mind is fragmented, and it is as though he must start his life over. His companions also believe that his great appetite brought by his accelerated metabolism is an eating disorder, and that he sometimes [i]haz da case of de dum[/i]. [color=aba000][b]Weaknesses[/b][/color] Ticklish, good food, fatigue, magic, those who he loves, merciful [center][h2][ P[color=aba000]E[/color]R[color=aba000]S[/color]O[color=aba000]N[/color]A[color=aba000]L[/color]I[color=aba000]T[/color]Y ][/h2][/center] [color=aba000][b]Likes[/b][/color] Eating good food, a challenge, his friends, and just being silly though he might be serious who knows? [color=aba000][b]Dislikes[/b][/color] When innocents get caught up in his fights, evil, those who harm others, and the greatest crime: wasting food. [color=aba000][b]Goals[/b][/color] His goals are to grow stronger and unlock his suppressed potential. [color=aba000][b]Life's Ambition ( Single greatest goal )[/b][/color] To rid the world of all evil until THE END [color=aba000][b]Fears[/b][/color] Failure [color=aba000][b]Crippling Fear ( Single Biggest Fear)[/b][/color] Those he loves getting killed because of him [color=aba000][b]Least Outspoken About[/b][/color] Himself [color=aba000][b]Most Outspoken About[/b][/color] Food [color=aba000][b]Vernacular[/b][/color] New England American [color=aba000][b]Mannerisms[/b][/color] Holy has a healthy sense of humor and isn't afraid to talk about immature subjects such as the big shit he had the other day. He will pass gas and belch in public without a care. He comes off most of the time as boyish and youthful, but he has moments of solemnity. [color=aba000][b]Psychological Condition[/b][/color] Overall mentally sound [color=aba000][b]Friends[/b][/color] The Priest and The Monk (can acquire more in-game) [color=aba000][b]Acquaintances[/b][/color] TBD (can acquire some in-game) [color=aba000][b]Rivals[/b][/color] The Monk, General Pompey, TBD (can acquire some in-game) [color=aba000][b]Social Pressures/Problems[/b][/color] Flirty or very forward women [color=aba000][b]Other Pressures/Problems[/b][/color] When The Monk is angry or watching kids.

It hinders his speed by a small fraction, making him slower than most beings. If he were to drop some of the weight, not only is his physical/magic defense dropped, but his physical attack and dexterity skyrocket.[/i][/center] [color=aba000][b]Heavy-weight white hooded coat with black hems[/b][/color] decorated with two black twin crosses sewn into the collar, this coat can absorb [u]5 slashes[/u], [u]3 thrusts[/u], or [u]3 magic and energy-based attacks[/u]—on account of the crosses sewn upon the collar. They provide a significant amount of physical and magic defense—before this material will shred or rip. [color=aba000][b]Black Cotton Wife-beater[/b][/color] [color=aba000][b]Twin Cross[/b][/color] The necklace is made from a foreign alloy that materialized when the Holy One was born. It doesn't bear a magnetic attraction and it protects him from magic attacks such as "instant death" and manipulation of his being through supernatural powers or abilities. The cross sort of cloaks Holy from mechanical detection, forcing him to be detected by natural means (sight, hearing, and smell). [color=aba000][b]Two thick leather belts[/b][/color] [color=aba000][b]Heavy-Weight Black Denim Jeans[/b][/color] that bear the same conditioning as his coat. They have an assortment of pockets for his convenience. [color=aba000][b]Durable Steel-Toe Combat Boots[/b][/color] These boots are all-weather and all-terrain. With their special sole, they can find traction even through the slipperiest substances. They can also absorb an immense amount of heat to the point where he can walk on lava rock. [center][color=a36209][h2]Weapons[/h2][/color][/center] [color=aba000][b]Cross Blade[/b][/color] An indestructible blade with mysterious capabilities. It can be a blade of mass destruction or it can be a blade of peace. The blade is a five-foot great sword that summons from the depths of Holy's body. The blade comes from his spirit self and has proven to be unique for its ability to slice through the fabrics of reality. The sword is in the shape of a cross with two one and half-foot arms that are very, very deadly known as left and right hand of god. [u]Sword Abilities[/u] "Conceal." A move where Holy's sword is capable of concealing his opponent's move or his opponent (immortals only) into an inescapable oblivion. A finisher move that can only be used once per fight. This blade is also a key to breaking seals and closing dimension holes. Holy's blade can be used as a trap for dimension-hoppers to lock them in a pocket dimension that Holy may release them from later (since he is mostly merciful depending on the crime). For the trap to be successful, Holy has to either catch the attack with his blade or impale the enemy on the end of his sword. [color=aba000][b]Diamond Knuckles[/b][/color] Holy's gloves were created from a flexible and all-weather polyfiber material. These gloves protect Holy's hands from intense heat and cold. Their durability doesn't allow them to tear easily. They are capable of stopping even the sharpest of blades. The small crosses sewn into the fingerpads of Holy's gloves give them their odd durability. Embedded across the knuckles of Holy's black gloves are spikes of compressed diamond. They have no special abilities, they only increase physical damage output. (See "Sacred Shields" for information on gloves durability) [color=aba000][b]Burning Fists[/b][/color] When the gloves come off and when Holy is facing an opponent whose alignment is evil, his hands will softly burn with his spiritual energy. Similarly, if they touch an evil entity, that entity will feel its sacred burn.

Severe injuries take time. [i]Spiritual energy manipulation/absorption[/i] Everything carries traces of The Creator. Holy can gather these traces and use them as small attacks, defenses, and support moves in battle. His most favored support moves are creating platforms. Since Holy cannot fly (until he acquires a later transformation), he may create a platform that allows him to defy gravity and even physics. [i]Blessing[/i] Similar to his ability to “Convert,” when Holy's bare hands touch an object that object whether a flimsy twig or blade of glass become as strong as steel and can be used as a formidable weapon. See it more like a holy enchantment. It acts in that respect as well. His ability to bless also grants protection to other beings against bewitchment and possession. [i]Convert[/i] This ability is similar to “Purification.” Holy's bare hands can absorb an attack and convert it into his own extraordinary prowess. However, depending on the size and strength of the assault, if he isn’t careful, he can be overwhelmed. [i]Purification[/i] Purification is the act of converting a foreign danger into a support function. If there is a harmful energy creating an obstacle or bewitching a home, Holy can purify the evil, making it harmless. [i]Untraceable[/i] Holy’s energy and spirit power is peculiar. He can only be sensed by the five senses, specifically: sight, sound, and smell. His aura presents himself as a normal human when his abnormal features are unnoticed or unseen. His presence emanates warmth, friendliness, and security (when he is in a good mood at least). His presence can be rather comforting, but on impulse, if he is ever enraged, his presence shifts into something dread-worthy. [i]Spirit Body[/i] Holy has a physical body and a spiritual body, and no matter how heavily armored the enemy may be, if his physical punches can’t reach him, his spirit punches will and those don’t leave physical injuries on the body, but spiritual ones that deal true damage. [i]Glare[/i] A natural ability that has to deal with Holy's eyes. Like a normal mirror, if the sun or light gets into Holy's eyes, an eye piercing glare will emit and blind (if successful one turn) or become a temporary distraction. [i]Sacred Shields[/i] For each cross in the fingers of Holy's gloves, the crosses are capable of emitting large shields in the shape of a twin cross to protect Holy or anyone he chooses to protect. Anything that collides with these crosses that isn't either a spell, enchanted, or an inhuman attack, will not shatter them. Resistance lasts for [u]3 energy or magic attacks[/u] before it shatters. Anything that collides with these crosses that isn't enchanted will not shatter them. When these shields shatter, the durability of his gloves are shattered as well. [center][h2][ T[color=aba000]R[/color]A[color=aba000]N[/color]S[color=aba000]C[/color]E[color=aba000]N[/color]D[color=aba000]E[/color]N[color=aba000]T[/color] ][/h2][/center] [color=aba000][b]Superhuman Strength[/b][/color] The exact limits of the Holy One's strength is unknown. He has been known to hold back on enemies who are not truly evil in spirit, but he has also been suspected of holding back even on those enemies who are evil as though he believes that they can still redeem themselves. There have only been very scarce instances where the Holy One may have shown his full strength. The guy can cut through reality with his sword for crying out loud! [color=aba000][b]Superhuman Durability[/b][/color] The Holy ONe's body is far tougher and more resistant to physical injury than the body of a human. Without aid of magical properties and enchantment most weapons won't harm him. [color=aba000][b]Superhuman Agility[/b][/color] His agility, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to levels that are far beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete. [color=aba000][b]Superhuman Speed[/b][/color] Holy can run, move, and react at speeds beyond the capabilities of the finest human athlete. [color=aba000][b]Superhuman Stamina[/b][/color] When under extreme pressures from battle, Holy's transcendent musculature is capable of converting fatigue toxins into cellular energy, allowing him to exert himself to peak physical capacity for several days before he would collapse from hunger and exhaustion. [color=aba000][b]Superhuman Reflexes[/b][/color] Holy's reflexes are enhanced and above those of the finest human athlete. [color=aba000][b]Heightened Senses[/b][/color] With concentration, Holy can tune in on conversations occurring no greater than 200 meters away. He can perfectly see up to 500 meters if he focused, and he can smell a hot meal cooking a mile away. Flavors appeal to him greater than they would a normal human, exciting a surplus of endorphins to flood his body (possibly the source of his obsession). These endorphins perform positive functions for his body and psychology. He can feel vibrations in the earth whether it be mild seismic activity or a heard of cattle stampeding half a mile away. [color=aba000][b]Accelerated Cellular Regeneration[/b][/color] His body's ability to rapidly reform and repair damaged tissues and organs. Severe injuries: lacerations, disfigurement, crippling, dismemberment - require [u]three turns[/u] to recover while the battle adrenaline is flowing. [color=aba000][b]Peculiar Adaptation[/b][/color] When Holy is afflicted by an unknown danger, his body undergoes a mutation that allows him to adapt and become immune similar to how the human body creates antibodies to combat a new type of virus or disease. These immunities manifest after each battle whenever he is allowed to recover. [center][h2][ S[color=aba000]P[/color]E[color=aba000]C[/color]I[color=aba000]A[/color]L [color=aba000]A[/color]T[color=aba000]T[/color]A[color=aba000]C[/color]K[color=aba000]S[/color] ][/h2][/center] [color=aba000][b]Miracle[/b][/color] An attack from the sky that takes two turns. Can only be activated by the word "Miracle". This attack can be very dangerous and very helpful. A beam of light cascades from the sky to either disintegrate an opponent or cast a blessing. Takes two turns to execute. [color=aba000][b]Heaven’s Lance[/b][/color] It looks like the miracle attack but it isn't. Instead, it is a pillar of solar flare from the sun. Holy has full control of this pillar and can send it after his opponent. If hit by this attack, depending on his opponent's defense against intensifying heat, his opponent will either be badly burned, unaffected, or disintegrated. [color=aba000][b]Deep Impact[/b][/color] This is most of the time an aerial attack. When Holy leaps into the air, his density and defense will increase and he will come down upon his opponent like a building. This attack is very easy to dodge in some situations. [color=aba000][b]War Cry[/b][/color] An explosion of din escapes Holy's mouth to deafen the opponent. Holy temporarily loses his voice for two turns after this move. If the attack works, the opponent is deaf for two turns as well.
