[hider=Ken Black][center][h1]Ken Black[/h1][/center] [center]Age:27(4 Days Until He's 28)[/center] [center]Gender:Male[/center] [center]Race/Nationality:Japanese(Born in Toronto )[/center] [img]http://orig09.deviantart.net/6639/f/2015/360/d/7/yato_tumblr_by_evil_usagi-d9lkece.jpg[/img](Disregard the blood!) 6'2 More of a lean build rather than very muscular. Normally wears jeans, a tshirt, and a hoodie. [hr] [center][b][u]Personality[/u][/b][/center] Ken's a pretty nice guy, although his social skills are a bit lacking. Despite his lack of social skills and carefree nature, he's very compassionate towards others, and is the type of person who'd rather recieve pain then see others recieve it, but that could also be related to how he's a bit squeemish. He's pretty responsible and somewhat dependable person when he's needed, however he tends to lack the self confidence to always offer his help to others, as at times he thinks he'd be more of a hinderance than a help. Ken's favorite past times involve reading and playing games, as he finds both activities to be relaxing and fun. He also happens to be incredibly loyal to friends, perhaps because he has so few. [center][b][u]Abilities[/u][/b][/center] Durability- Ken's body is incredibly durable, to the point of where knives are quite ineffective, and although guns will harm him, they have to be a very high caliber to actually penetrate , and still aren't guaranteed to penetrate. This is by far his strongest ability, and what he relies on the most. Reflexes-Ken has heightened reflexes far above the average human, allowing him to quickly process and react to any event Strong Will-Ken is incredibly hard to mind control, even the strongest telepaths would have trouble with him. Mild Healing Factor-Ken's wounds can heal relatively quickly, although the larger the wound, the longer it will take. If he were to break every bone in his arm, it'd take a good 3 minutes to fully heal, however healing wounds directly effects his stamina, if a wound is too extreme, he's tired before hand, or has too many wounds, he'll eventually pass out and heal while unconcious by focusing on healing, he heals faster as well as loses more stamina [center][b][u]Background [/u][/b][/center] Ken had a relatively normal life before everything changed and people started flying around. The only real issue was that his father was abusive, and since his mother was a workaholic, she wasn't able to be there for him. His lack of social skills also tended to make him a target, causing him to be bullied. Eventually, he retreated into gaming and reading, but this also made him cherish the few friends he had. Once powers started getting handed out like candies, his family moved to Munden for safety, though his father died on the way there, killed by a powered lunatic. Ken vowed if he ever found the man who did it, he'd kill them, something incredibly out of character for him, but the rage in his heart made him think differently. His life from then on in Mundin was nearly the same as before, except Ken was more withdrawn. Ken lacked direction but knew he wanted to protect peoole, he didn't want people to lose their loved ones because of some douchebags on ego trips that kill for fun. He wanted to be a person people could believe in when something was wrong. Ken wanted to be a hero, so he joined the Defense Unit. [hr] [center][b][u]Specialties[/u][/b][/center] Ken is quite good at wielding two long steel batons as blunt weapons. Since his strength isn't augmented, he needed a good weapon to take people down, and didn't want to use something that would kill. [center][b][u]Equipment[/u][/b][/center] Two steel batons, wallet, phone [hider=Relations!] [@Duoya] Kurt Plikat: One of the few people Ken really considers as a good friend at this moment in time. If Ken's not at home or work, there is a good chance that he's hanging out with Kurt, the only person really good at getting him out of his shell. After meeting 8 months ago they've been very good friends.[/hider] [/hider]
