[u][b][color=6ecff6]APPEARANCE          [/color][/b][/u]
[indent]Akhlut is a huge orca hybrid, standing at slightly over eight feet at the tip of his dorsal fin and weighs in at nearly 550 lbs. He sports the traditional colors of a regular killer whale, with black and white being his predominant colors. His massive mouth is lined with two rows of sharp, blunt teeth, perfectly suited in biting down prey and even in piercing metal hides. Two pectoral fins jettison behind his jaws, a callback to his cetacean origins, and while functional underwater they are useless on land. To replace them, he has two muscular arms with five thick fingers that are more than capable in strangling anyone he can get his hands on. Two pairs of spiked shoulder and wrist pads provide minimal defense against other opponents. He also sports a tail fluke. His regular clothing are made from brown leather - those being his jacket, tunic, and boots.

In his beast form, Akhlut resembles an Orca-Wolf-Wyvern hybrid, standing at a height of twelve feet (at the tip of his fin). He earns a hide made of sleek scales, producing a water-tight seal that makes him not only more durable, but still allowing him to be incredibly mobile in the water. His arms become longer, ending with a sharp "wing" that also connects to his back leg. Shoulder spikes flank his dorsal fin and his tail becomes more shark-like, looking more like a deadly axe.[/indent]

[u][b][color=6ecff6]BACKSTORY & MOTIVATION          [/color][/b][/u]
[indent]Legends say, that long ago in a seaside village now known as Nuuk, Greenland, there was a man named Toklo. A middle-aged and grizzly figure, sporting a bushy beard and long smooth hair, he was a local fisherman for his village. Every few days he’d go out on his large canoe and capture fish for his people, often supplying a weeks-worth per catch. Having worn the mantle for nearly forty years, he was once considered as one of the best fisherman in the region, able to identify nearly every kind of fish or marine mammal and knowing each and every spot where said creatures usually congregate. He’s even known to capture seals all on his lonesome and legends say that he and his friend had killed an angry orca that threatened to turn over his boat. In short, he was a highly respected hunter, with some claiming he’s the son of a god.

Yet as one of the greatest fishermen in his region, Toklo doesn’t simply see the ocean as a simply a place to hunt for food. And not only does he enjoy in meeting the ocean every so often, he obsesses over it. This became more and more prominent the older he became, even to the point where he visits the ocean every single day, no matter his condition. He often finds himself out at sea during his hunts for days at a time, relying simply on the fish at sea to nourish his human needs. It also wouldn’t be uncommon to see him swim in the frigid waters either, usually for several hours, and miraculously not receive any frostbite. Toklo has claimed that he had always felt out of place on land and desired to be one with the ocean. Initially his remarks weren’t taken as seriously, at first minding it as childish aspiration before considering it as a means to express his passion for fishing. But when his days out at sea began worrying the villagers, both on the possibility of losing their champion and the fact that they will reach starvation, it finally became clear to them that he quite literally meant it. He was spending more time wading with the fish, then using them to help his people.

The villagers eventually concluded that Toklo became mentally unstable and ultimately banned him from their village entirely. So when he found out day later after the banning, the fisherman was utterly devastated. Casted out from his own village after being proclaimed as a hero and champion, he was forced to travel the icy tundra in search for a new place to call home. During his travels, he encounters a pack of arctic wolves and, through unknown reasons, decides to join them. Of course, Toklo was immediately rejected and nearly mauled to death as he attempted to run away into the hills. However, before he would become food to the pack, the fight was interfered by an evil earth spirit, Amarok, who took the form of a gigantic black wolf and scared off the pack just by his sheer presence alone. Having sensed the human's vengeance against mankind, the wolf decided to make the fisherman a wolf himself, only after having Tolko to become his servant and to do his bidding in exchange. Tolko, now a black and white wolf, agreed reluctantly as he forced himself to join under Amarok’s guidance.

Yet after serving the spirit for only a week, does Tolko still wish to remain in the sea. Now that he feels that he has been ensured to never set foot in an inuit village again, he vows for the perfect opportunity to head back into the affection of the ocean he has loved for all these years. So when Keelut ordered Tolko to ravage a seaside village, the rebellious wolf ran away after descending deep into the village. Now free from Amarok’s grasp, Tolko descends deeper and deeper into the depths below, ready to become one with the ocean.

Yet his duty on Earth wasn’t complete. As the spirit gatherer of the dead Anguta was about to take his soul to the underworld, he too was intercepted by another spirit. Agloolik, an evil spirit of the ocean, sensed Tolko’s distress and inspected his condition. Recognizing him as the prior legendary fisherman everyone was talking about, the spirit offered him another chance to redeem himself by placing him back in his human body. Tolko disagreed full-heartedly, insisting to the spirit to give him the body of that of an orca and to earn a body that will grant him revenge against the people who banned him from the village. Agloolik granted his wish, morphing his body into what many call a cross between a wolf, an orca, and a wyvern. Thus Tolko was no more, for he is now known as...

Akhlut.

For centuries afterwards as he terrorized the inuit people around Greenland and the nearby islands and coastal regions of Canada, destroying their villages and eating their fish and livestock. No one was able to stop him and the gods didn’t help for unknown reasons. Yes once they were able to trap Akhlut briefly in a glacier, various villages were destroyed by the malevolent beast, including Nuuk itself. Yet despite his absence, the inuit passed down their experiences to their descendents, eventually sparking great legends and nightmares for centuries to come.

Fast forward to the present day… Akhlut has freed himself from his icy prison and found himself in a strange new world that felt quite alien to him. His new default body is an orca-human hybrid, secretly provided by Agloolik during his frozen slumber in preparations for his revival, provided an easier body for him to move around in the urban jungles that littered nearly the entire Earth. The creature's spark for revenge against humanity has since vanished, yet it doesn’t mean he’s on the side for good. Attempting to blend in with his environment, he decided to work as a traveling mercenary-for-hire, joining anyone just to retrieve a sense of newfound purpose and to make a good profit or so. However, despite having to adapt to his new life, never does the thought of the ocean leave his mind in one form or another. And so once every often, when he doesn’t have a day that’s booked, he takes a nice refreshing dip into the nearest body of water and remembers the life back before his transformation.[/indent]

[h3][b][color=00aeef]FIGHTING STYLE  & ABILITIES[/color][/b][/h3][hr]

[indent][u][b][color=6ecff6]FIGHTING STYLE          [/color][/b][/u]
[indent]Akhlut is a heavy-duty brawler, using his extreme strength to utterly demolish his opponent and his thick blubbery hide to take quite a beating. Yet he is no slugger, as he often produces unpredictable movements in combat to throw his opponent off. He's also no stranger to fighting dirty, or virtually with anything he can get his hands on. He's also surprisingly fast and agile, allowing to leap high distances to keep up with his opponent and dodge any incoming fire. While preferring to combat his opponent with his bare hands, he is also quite proficient in using heavy weaponry, like rocket launchers and mini-guns.

Akhlut also uses echolocation to search for his opponent when he's unable to see them. This is extremely useful when navigating in a pitch-black environment, or when he's underwater. Speaking of underwater, it can come as no surprise that he's extremely fast when swimming under the waves, using his tail and pectoral fins to move freely in the water.

Akhlut’s beast form is much more brutal and savage, as he strives to put his opponent down in a fit of raw strength and wrathful intent. He'll do whatever means necessary within the amount of time he has in order to decimate his rivals.[/indent]

[u][b][color=6ecff6]SPECIAL MOVES & TECHNIQUES          [/color][/b][/u]

[indent][u]■   [b][Heavy Punch][/b][/u]
[indent]Akhlut charges strength into his fist of choice and unleashes it on his opponent's face. It's even strong enough to dent metal.[/indent][/indent]

[indent][u]■   [b][Seismic Sock][/b][/u]
[indent]Akhlut stomps the ground, unleashing a miniature earthquake that stuns any opponent on the ground for a short moment.[/indent][/indent]

[indent][u]■   [b][Armor-Piercing Bite][/b][/u]
[indent]Akhlut can bite down on his item of choice with all of his strength, being capable of ripping metal limbs and armor plating.[/indent][/indent]

[indent][u]■   [b][Blow-Blast][/b][/u]
[indent]Akhlut can unleash a blast of high-pressured water or air and unleash it on his opponent. Water can pierce through metal, while air can knock a person back several meters.[/indent][/indent]

[indent][u]■   [b][Echolocation][/b][/u]
[indent]Akhlut is capable of using echolocation just like regular whales can, using it to search his surroundings in total darkness or underwater. It's also used as sonar to detect any nearby opponents.[/indent][/indent]

[indent][u]■   [b][Sonic Clicks][/b][/u]
[indent]Akhlut is capable of unleashing powerful sound clicks from his mouth at near rapid-succession. It's loud enough to be able to burst eardrums or increase the body temperature inside an organic opponent if it's concentrated on the opponent for long enough.[/indent][/indent]

[u][b][color=6ecff6]SUPER MOVES          [/color][/b][/u]

[indent] [u]■   [b][Charge Burst][/b][/u]
[indent]Akhlut charges at his opponent at great speed, threatening to slam into his opponent like an incoming freight train. This move can also be issued underwater for a greater effect.[/indent][/indent]

[indent] [u]■   [b][Geyser Bust][/b][/u]
[indent]A stronger version of Blow-Blast, Akhlut can charge up and unleash a more powerful version of said attack, both at greater width and destructive power. [/indent][/indent]

[indent] [u]■   [b][Beast Form][/b][/u]
[indent]Though rage of adrenaline and fury, Akhlut is capable of transforming into a giant orca-wolf-wyvern hybrid. In this version, he's more powerful and agile, while also being capable of unleashing large high-pressured water beams from his mouth. He's also much more adapted to swimming in this form, going at incredible speeds to run down his prey. His tail can also be used as a weapon and he can climb on walls.[/indent][/indent]

[u][b][color=6ecff6]WEAKNESSES & LIMITS          [/color][/b][/u]
[indent]Akhlut is one big mass of aggression and anger. He puts up a very heavy offense and while his blubbery mass provides him with natural armor, his only defense is by ruthlessly attacking his opponent. A clever opponent is capable of outsmarting him through misdirection and by outmaneuvering the big lug.

The orca-hybrid often has a hard time taking things that are stuck in his blowhole. That means, if something blocks the passage, the creature's Blow-Blast and Geyser Burst abilities will be temporarily compromised. It's also a location where he can breathe so taking it out limits him in breathing from his mouth.

Speaking of his mouth, one well-placed grenade or beam inside Akhlut’s mouth can cause serious harm if exploited correctly.
