From its hilt is where the Anima can establish that powerful bridge between the physical plane and the aetherial one, drawing immense aether energy stream that could then be funnelled into a small hole, shooting off purplish flames there. While it seemed intuitive to use, a normal blade on one side and a flamethrower on the other, since all that aetherial energy was rushed into a small point, the kickback force would be strong, and thus difficult for a user to hold it like a flamethrower, especially with a sharp blade behind them. That's where some of the resourcefulness of the user is required, and for Flemma, he mostly utilized this weird quirk of the weapon as a way of gaining superior mobility/strength over his opponents, thus creating a rather unique sword fighting style to be fared. [/hider] [color=bfff00][b]Personality[/b][/color] Being one of the more mysterious members of Delta Security Division, Flemma mostly kept things to himself, very careful not to reveal too much information about himself, and preferred to spend his time alone. However, this was not really evident in conversations, since he can be chatty, laid-back and humorous. He tends to have a rather 'big-brother' attitude towards his colleagues, even if they are much older than he is, often looking out for them, albeit in a rather hands-off manner. [color=bfff00][b]Alignment[/b][/color] Neutral Good [color=bfff00][b]Backstory[/b][/color] Little is known about Floyd's early life, but he was presumed to have grown up from the 6th Pillar, judging from his employment as a handler for the Solitas Corporation, who tended to employ slum dwellers. His employment responsibilities were stated to be protecting their assets, and sometimes he was assigned to that role when criminal activities surge. However, in peacetime, a more lucrative income from these bodyguards were as combat entertainers, or 'Gladiators' as titled by Fortuna Anima Championship (FAC) - a 'no-barred holds' styled combat tournament entered by Anima users only (with some rare exceptions). Fighters are often employed by large corporations as a form of informal betting system, and there are very few rules regarding the fights or tournament layout or even refereeing, just as long as the fighters don't die and provide great entertainment for their audience. His Anima at the time was a dual dagger with gravitational pull capabilities. As an FAC gladiator, Floyd, or Flemma as he would soon be nicknamed and commonly addressed by, was a relatively decent fighter, scoring twice more wins than losses, and was known for having a very imitative fighting style. After several years competing in the FAC, however, he abruptly disappeared. Solitas' official statement regarding this was that there was a breach of contract and that his employment was terminated as a result. There were some conspiracies regarding this, mostly unsubstantiated and soon forgotten in the fast-lanes of Fortuna. Regardless, he disappeared and no one could get a hold of where exactly he was or what he was doing. Years later, confusions arose after the presence and subsequent deaths of several notorious hitmen belonging to various criminal syndicates in Fortuna. There were immediate rumours that the killer had been the former FAC gladiator. Their bodies were clean enough to rule out the possibility of a wild creature, and not many living in this remote area would be strong or influential enough to guarantee a visit from these professional killers. And while the truth would not come out for a long time, it was indeed Flemma who was both a target and the one to have locked these handlers' criminal archive forever. He would later be discovered in hermit in the Silva mountains, very much changed from his FAC days a decade ago. He wielded an unregistered Anima in the form of a propulsive long sword, his outfit a little bit outdated, and most notably, his right hand was gone all the way to his elbow, sparking some speculations to what had happened. He was invited to the δ Division of the IXth Security Unit, joining under undisclosed terms. [color=bfff00][b]Additional information[/b][/color] Flemma is a smoker, using his sword's unique gimmick as a lighter. He also refuses to use prosthesis for his right arm for mysterious reasons, preferring to not only live but also fight with only one arm.
