After all, this is what an assassin inflicts on others, right?"[/b][/i][/color][/center] [i][b]Name:[/b][/i] Ein [i][b]Age:[/b][/i] 19 [i][b]Gender:[/b][/i] Male [i][b]Race:[/b][/i] Human [i][b]Element:[/b][/i] Dark [i][b]Personality:[/b][/i] Thanks to his work, Ein is rather cold-hearted and rarely shows any human emotion. He prefers to remain quiet and rarely shows any sort of interest in harboring relationships with others, even if they are friendly. He thinks of others mainly as considerable targets or even foes. In the few moments he speak, he tends to discuss about strategy and methods to efficiently defeat (or kill) enemies without too much effort. In-battle, Ein is quick to capture an enemy's pattern and has fast reaction to attacks. He oftenly fights alone and prefers to work by himself, but has knowledge that sometimes he'll need someone and doesn't refuse any sort of aid. [i][b]Biography:[/b][/i] He comes from a family of assassins which has secretly served the Bariura Empire for generations. However, Ein never grew near the family's business, as his mother never wished him to follow his or his father's footsteps. Their original goal was to make of their son a genuine scholar and student of the magic arts. He began as a student of magic and grew curious about the dark arts, specially on the spells that would easily conceal movements. His own power began to transmit quickly and he easily learned even some offensive spells. However, his life turned upside down. In a certain night, his house was attacked by an assassin guild and his parents brutally killed while he was studying in the magic academy. When he returned to his house, the attackers have told him that members of the fallen empire had attacked his house and killed them. As his vengeful feeling rose, he decided to join them in order to look for the ones responsible. The guild trained him hardly into the arts of assassination and he grew to be one of the best among them. One day, however, Ein heard from members about the killing in his house and eventually learned the truth. By combining the power of his magic and the weapon he carried, he carried on a mass death spree, killing all the members of the assassin guild. After he executed his whole plan, Ein began to wander in the lone remains of Bariura. That is, until Lucius decided to call him. [i][b]Evolution:[/b][/i] In his first evolution, he changes to [b][i]Blackened Tracer Ein[/i][/b], where his personality starts to grow a little and he starts to see others as mere allies, but still refuses the meaning of camaderie. He also starts to gain more weapons and tools to help in his assassination skills, such as a special set of steel knives and a chain to use as a sort of whip or rope. His guns doesn't suffer any sort of changes. His second evolution, where he changes to [b][i]Hollow Killer Ein[/i][/b], gives a little drastic change. Ein begins to realize that the people around him are trying to help him and he begins to understand the usage of the term "comrades". He starts to open up, but leaves many things about his past or himself hidden. His guns also change, as they gain a blade at their tips so that he can defend himself in the front lines. He also gains another chain and his set of knives changes from steel to black metal, which is more durable than most of the other materials in Grand Gaia. [i][b]Theme[/b][/i] [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSQVxF1EZ4o[/youtube] [b][i]Skills and Brave Bursts[/i][/b] [b][u]Vain Pursuer[/u][/b] Ein's senses are slightly superior to normal human senses thanks to his training and to his own mana. He can use both his dual guns and his magic to attack. If close combat, he mainly uses kicks as an attack. His tendency is to infuse bullets with dark magic or use quick supportive magic to evade attacks in some situations (Stealth). However, because he abandoned the complete practice, his magic usage is really limited to enchanting and quick Stealth, so he can't abuse of those skills. [i]Obscure Delta (Brave Burst):[/i] creates a magic circle in front of him and shoots three bullets. They gain dark energy and become purple projectiles. Rebounds through walls, roof and objects and hits enemies in a determined area. [b][u]Blackened Tracer[/u][/b] His evolution has given him new weapons: the chain and a set of knives. Ein uses the chain as an whip to attack enemies and as a support tool, like a rope. His senses, especially his sight, are far more improved than before and his own speed slightly increases. His magic use is still very limited, so he can't make too much use of it. [i]Obscure Square (Brave Burst):[/i] evolution of Obscure Delta. Number of projectiles raise to four and the area of effect slightly grows. [i]Descending Relinquisher (Super Brave Burst):[/i] lashes chain on a single enemy as a whip, constricts it with the chain and shoots five knives at it. [b][u]Hollow Killer[/u][/b] The last evolution marks more a change on the magic usage coming from him. He now gained access to illusion creating, which allows to create an image of himself to trick enemies. Despite that, he can only make one illusion and said fake cannot deal damage to any enemy, being more useful as bait or escape trick. His dual guns can now be used as melee weapons thanks to the new blades attached to them and he can now use two chains. The knives can now return to him without the need for Ein to go after them. [i]Obscure Pentagram (Brave Burst):[/i] evolution of Obscure Square. Number of projectiles raise to five, the area of effect grows considerably and the bullets gain a defense ignoring effect, with a 35% decrease in strength. [i]Decadent Sentence (Super Brave Burst):[/i] evolution of Descending Relinquisher. Now attacks with both chains, being able to constrict up to three enemies and the number of knives raise to nine. [i]Blitzkrieg Drive (Ultimate Brave Burst):[/i] once unleashing his Overdrive, Ein locks enemies inside a magical circle. He shoots a single bullet to the sky and vanishes. After a while, the sky opens revealing a giant magic circle on it and a rain of magic-infused bullets fall on enemies. [/hider]
