[h3][center][b]Abilities:[/b][/center][/h3]

[center][b][color=0072bc]Neutral Ability:[/color] Piercing[/b][/center] 
[center] - D-A's blades allow him to penetrate and bypass through enemy shields and barriers, although not completely. He will still deal a fraction of damage to the person(s) hiding behind said barrier however. Note that he cannot destroy shields and barriers with this skill alone.[/center]

[center][b][color=0072bc]Weapon Ability:[/color] Pulse Blades[/b][/center]
[center] - D-A repeatedly slashes using his two blades. What they lack in range, they cover up in damage and agility. This makes D-A suited for single-target enemies. [/center] 

[center][b][color=0072bc]Special Ability 1:[/color] Shield Shell [/b][/center]
[Center] - When things get rough, D-A can clasp both of his blades together to form a pseudo-shield in front of him, which drastically reduces damage he receives in the front, but in turn attacks dealt from behind will damage him more. During this defensive retreat, he sprints and gains a boost in movement speed, he cannot however turn around or jump. Afterwards, he slashes in front of him in an X-shape, damaging any unfortunate enough to get in its way. [/center]

[center][b][color=0072bc]Special Ability 2:[/color] Feedback [/b][/center]
[Center] - D-A kneels and assumes a defensive stance with his blades, similar to the one in Shield Shell. In this stationary stance, D-A cannot move or use any other ability, but any damage he receives in the stance will be reduced, with most of it being absorbed into his blades. After a few seconds, he unleashes a wave of energy whose size and damage are equivalent to the damage he received in the stance. If the stance is interrupted in any way (Sleep, Knocked Down, Stun, Hack, Freeze, etc.), the skill is cancelled. [/center]

[center][b][color=0072bc]Ultimate:[/color] In a Flash[/b][/center]
[Center] - D-A sharpens his blades and taunts the enemy, and in a blur he proceeds to violently hack and slash away at his foes with his blades at a blinding speed. Damage and speed is boosted in this state but his defenses are drastically lowered. He can only travel in a straight, linear, line, BUT he is able change directions, just not backwards. Jumping is also prohibited. [/center]

[center][b][color=0072bc]Biography:[/color][/b][/center]
[center] [center][b][i][color=0072bc]"Your ass is grass and I'm gonna fucking mow it."[/color][/i][/b][/center] 
More man than machine, Alfonso Jiménez swore an oath to his family and to himself that he'd do anything in his power to free them from their impoverished lifestyle, even if it meant sacrificing bits and pieces of his humanity.

Being the eldest of three, Alfonso and his family were never quite the brightest nor the richest bunch of people, but what they lacked in funds they made up in happiness. They grinned as they gritted their teeth through strenuous hard work, hoping that one day it would all pay off and, even if it was just a dream, they'd be living the modest lifestyle they had always yearned for. But like most dreams, once you awake, you become greeted by the harshest of realities.

Alfonso had thought that his homeland were free from the shackles of oppression and despotism they had once suffered through, but history shows that it ceases to learn from those who have set an example, and that one's own kin can either be their greatest ally or their worst enemy. A tax collector stubbornly demanded that he and his family pay up, at first it was reasonable and with a little dash of luck and perseverance they would always pull through, sometimes at the last minute, but it got to the point where the taxes went from being reasonable to downright criminal. No matter what pleading, no matter how much sweat and blood they would pour into every ounce of their labor, they simply couldn't afford to pay, then things got violent...

Not one to handle the smug snake, Alfonso's father got himself into a fight with the collector, which resulted in him being arrested. In a fit of rage, a young Alfonso proceeded to assault the man the same but was easily subdued by him. He panted and heaved, stronger...He had to become stronger. Not just for himself, but for his family. Unable to take residence, his family were thankfully kept in safe hands with relatives who were generous enough to take them in, so as long they did their fair share of work around the house. But Alfonso declined, rather than stand idly by he set himself on a journey to become stronger, even if it meant taking desperate measures.

After a fair amount of time travelling, he had butted heads with a mysterious person who had been tracking him for a while and was interested in his quest of becoming stronger. The shady person offered him a deal, and in his state, he hurriedly agreed, even when the cloaked figure mentioned he would [i]"No longer resemble his former self."[/i] Through details better left unknown, the man known as Alfonso was no more and he had become more machine than man, Alfonso was nothing more than a shell of his former self. But...Now he was stronger! He was better in every way! But at what cost? Alfonso could have cared less, all he knew now was that he had everything he needed to help his family. The figure however, had other plans and had planned to turn him into a living, subservient weapon, and thought of it as [i]"due payment."[/i] even trying to persuade the machine-man by promising a life of grandeur for both him and his family. The offer was tempting but when he politely declined, the man became violent, what was a cybernetically-enhanced boy to do? Making good use of his upgrades he was able to subdue and flee from the figure. And although he was grateful, he could sense the malicious intentions.

To make ends meet, he began taking various odd jobs that would require his aid, and more often than not, he was greeted with questionable looks. When asked for his name, all he would say was "D-A", short for "Don't Ask".

[center][b][color=0072bc]Personality:[/color][/b][/center]
[center]In terms of personality, Alfonso tends to come off as arrogant, immature, and reckless. Preferring to jump straight ahead into the action without any further planning, his [i]"Slash now, talk later."[/i] attitude is what puts him at odds with many of the people he encounters, as more often than not he tends to cause a majority of trouble due to his playfully reckless personality. Thanks to his upgrades, he seems to hold a high regard of himself, thinking he's all that when in reality he's not, point this out and he begins to fumble on his words and shows more of his rarely seen modest side. It's easy to understand why he compensates for a lot of the things he does.

If one had to put it in easier terms, it would be that he has his heart and ideals in the right place but his attitude is not.
He never really bears any ill will he often displays through his playful teasing and does it mostly for laughs, never out of malice. It's easy to make friends with D-A, but just as easy to make him your enemy. The basic principle would be, if you respect him, he'll respect you. If you play nice, he'll play nice and so on and so forth.[/center]
