He’s of the belief that if someone doesn’t agree with him then the only way to sway them is to clobber them in combat. That said he won’t throw a punch if there isn’t a mutual desire to throw down. Saying his personality is flashy and obnoxious is an understatement but his stark transparency shows his heart of gold. [b]Ki Colour:[/b] [color=yellow]▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇[/color] [hr] [h2][b]Stats[/b][/h2] [hr] [b]Strength:[/b] 6 [b]Ki:[/b] 4 [b]Endurance:[/b] 4 [b]Speed:[/b] 6 [hr] [h2][b]Abilities[/b][/h2] [hr] [b]Intimidating[/b] - While there’s a great deal of freaky things out there in the universe, everyone’s a little put off by a guy who won’t show his face. Even to god killers, Karne can throw them off their game with his unflinching stare as he refuses to break eye contact until someone’s down or knocked away. [b]Lucha Libre[/b] - While not as prestigious or highly looked upon by most as the likes of Asian martial arts, Lucha Libre is nothing to scoff at. A flurry of punches, grapples, throws and pins is what mostly makes up this style of fighting of which Karne is a master in. [hr] [h2][b]Transformations[/b][/h2] None as of yet [hr] [h2][b]Basic Techniques:[/b][/h2] •[b]The Everyman’s Grapple [OFFENSIVE/DEFENSIVE][/b] - Karne latches on and brings his enemy to their knees. With a combination of his strong grip, strategic placement of his arms and many other minor considerations, Karne is capable of keeping almost any enemy stationary for at least a moment. Perfect for setting up attacks, catching a breather or defusing a fight. •[b]Tiger Claw Flurry [OFFENSIVE][/b] - A Barrage of Ki infused punches and scratches. Despite a human’s natural lack of claws, Karne’s worked his way around this evolutionary mishap with the use of his ki. His Ki solidifies just off of his hands and form claws capable of cutting through nearly anything it comes into contact with. •[b]Burden’s Release [OFFENSIVE/UTILITY][/b] - A haphazordous, uncalculated burst of ki. Karne lets loose a great amount of ki from his body into a blast all around of himself, leaving him drained of a lot of ki power but fine physically otherwise. While it’s a risky move in a fight, it’s perfect when wanting to hide from those attuned to tracking ki as it’ll temporary leave Karne appearing to be as powerful as an average Joe.Karne •[b]Full Body Counter Strike [DEFENSIVE][/b] - Despite his impressive endurance and speed, sometimes Karne just needs to take a hit. In an attempt to mitigate any damage done, Karne s learned to flex nearly any muscle of his body push back against an attack done against it. He won’t cancel out the blow but it’ll mitigate some of the would be damage and lessen any stagger that would have been caused. [hr] [h2][b]Trademark Techniques[/b][/h2] [hr] [b]The Great Burning Kidney[/b] - Due to the unusual nature of Karne’s artificial ki, his body is able to essentially act as a sponge to natural ki. He’s able to draw ambient ki from his surroundings (people included) at a constantly increasing rate. The absorbed ki is immediately given off usually in the form of a proportionally increasing ki aura. It can also be given off in the form of a small concentrated beam though this is a risky move as the beam only begins to be felt after around five seconds which basically equates to an entirety in a fight. [hr] [h2][b]Ultimate Technique[/b][/h2] [hr] [b]No Theatrics[/b] - When the whimsical and flashy moves don’t work, Karne has one last move to lean on. Karne loses his fighting stance, locks his fingers together and swings his fists in a not-so-impressive display. The blow looks pretty vanilla in comparison to most of Karne’s moves but by pumping all the ki he can into the move, Karne creates a devastating blow. [hr] [h2][b]History[/b][/h2] [hr] Karne’s early life is masked in just as much mystery as his head. Some people say he came from the slums of some city and rose his way through the ranks of the wrestling world. Other people claim the complete opposite, claiming Karne came from a wealthy, old family and wrestling was his outlet from his very formal life. The mystery ends though once Karne entered the big leagues of wrestling. Going up against the then champion Jack Rebound as a warm up match, Karne wiped the floor with him in an unexpected turn. Suddenly nothing about the wrestler known as Karne was a mystery save for his identity. He was approached by tons of managers and in the end accepted the deal made by one Joshi Sato, once a manager to the stars but disgraced and blacklisted after he was found to be rigging fights. Karne stayed at the top for a good few years before coming to blows with a foe with a twist. Another masked wrestler named Del Bonito came in with flashier moves than even the great Karne’s. As quickly as Karne had made it to the top he became dethroned. Soon the praise stopped coming and the great career of Karne came to an end… for now. Joshi kept trying to find Karne gigs to no avail while Karne got hung up with his fight against Del Bonito. He’d seen people wrestle for years but Del Bonito wrestled like no man Karne had seen before, setting off some alarms in Karne’s mind. Reluctant at first, Karne managed to convince Joshi to look into Del Bonito’s past and began to find some red flags of his own. Del Bonito had quite a few unseen benefactors that contributed to his ‘training’ and began selling all sorts of merchandise based on the guy. His manager couldn’t get a whole lot of info on the benefactors but he did get an address which was good enough for Karne. On a self imposed mission, Karne took the address in hand and left to get some answers. The dress turned out to be a storage locker lot with little to nobody around. Seemingly coming to a dead end, Karne was beginning to lose his gusto for finding the truth until he found a locker door that looked like it was used a lot more than the others. With nothing but a hunch and a thinned out nerves, he lifted the door up and revealing a stairway down into what looked like a lab with gym equipment and targets. The masked wrestler walked in and looked around in wonder and confusion at all the equipment as he tried to somehow connect this to Del Bonito. That connection came pretty quickly as a dumbbell got tossed at Karne’s head. Del Bonito, floating above the ground stood in-between Karne and freedom. Karne questioned Del Bonito on the nature of the equipment and why exactly he was now able to fly but he was met with a flying punch from Del Bonito. The two scuffled with Del bonito clearly having the upper hand but Karne managing to avoid any fatal blows. Finally Del Bonito managed to land a decent blow to Karne, knocking him into the side of a glass vat and spilling some of the liquid contents onto Karne. He felt worse for ware but he also felt something click within himself, like plugging in a christmas tree to a nuclear power source. Karne felt like he was going to burst but when a flying kick came towards him, Karne managed to move faster than he ever had before hand and smack the attack away. The liquid had bestowed Karne a great amount of ki and while he didn’t have the same skill with ki as Del Bonito, his fighting skills made up the gap and then-some. The fight ended shortly after with Del Bonito out cold after a ki infused choker hold and one short phone call later had the police coming to take him away. Karne was happy to have closure but sad by his new development of powers. The use of ki was strictly prohibited in the world of wrestling for the obvious advantages it gave. Getting ready to take off the mask, Joshi came to Karne with a proposal; step it up from pure wrestling and move onto the big leagues. The World Martial Arts Tourney.
