"Alright, so, uh, kill him." Collin said to himself. "He's not even real, so no sweat. Just gotta use my powers..." He looked at his hand trying to think of a way to use it. He hadn't the slightest idea how to use this power offensively, defensively, or at all for that matter. Phase my hand and do... Collin searched for some witty way to use his power in a fight. Phase my fist through a wall and punch him? But there was no wall to do so.
As Collin stood there, his resentment towards his power grew into anger. After a solid minute of trying to find use for his power, he clenched his fist and looked up at the enemy. Screw it, this guy is just getting a knuckle sandwich. Collin charged and cocked his fist back, in an attempt to land a hay maker on the virtual guard. This power isn't worth anything, but that doesn't stop me from some good old fashion fisticuffs!

An Empire In Need

Maxwell

With Helmet and Armor

Without Armor

Obviously without the fists

-NAME: Maxwell "Tank" Pentaghast
-AGE: 21
-PROVINCE: Malva
-WEAPON: Sword and Buckler
-SKILLS: I sorta divided this up into how he matches up against the different kinds of weapons used.

Swordplay

This is by far Maxwell's best match up. When it comes to sword play, he uses a very defensive style and generally read where his opponents swings will land. His offensive capability is rather lacking, as he only swings his sword when he knows he can land a heavy hit. With that being said, it only takes a few blows for him to take down his foe, as it hits with tons of force on each swing.

Bows and Arrows, Throwing Knives, Other Long Ranged Weapons

This is Maxwell's worst matchup. With him being a naturally very large and slow man, it takes him awhile to catch up to long ranged opponents. He generally makes a very slow advance towards them, using cover when he can. Unfortunately for him, the fast and agile target can almost always outrun him, rendering him basically useless for an offensive threat.

Daggers

Maxwell performs decent against this match up. Although rouges are fast an hard to hit, Maxwell can easily move his buckler to at least block one of the daggers. His armor does well against the small knives as well, allowing him to take several hits.

Unarmed

Maxwell does extremely well in this match up as well. He is well versed in a small assortment of fighting styles, and his sheer size and strength makes him an intimidating foe to most anyone.

-BIO:
Maxwell was born into nobility and was fed from a silver spoon since birth. However, around his teenage years, he grew to resent the lavish life he grew up in. He craved the rush of battle, and the petty fencing and archery matches held by his family didn't suit him well, as he did very poorly. He did do well in using a shield and buckler and unarmed combat. The more and more Maxwell practiced these kinds of things, the more his parents began to worry.
As Maxwell spent more of his time doing what the nobles called "primitive battle techniques," he started to hang out with non-nobles. Maxwell started to engage in street brawls, bar fights, and sometimes even highway robbery solely for the rush of combat. His parents were outraged, and quickly disowned their son and tried to have him and his friends executed. Maxwell got away, but his friends were not as fortunate. Maxwell fled and found himself as a mercenary, laying low and away from his former family.
-OTHER INFO:
-Generally spends most of his time repairing his armor, as it takes quite a beating on a regular basis.
-When need be, Maxwell can "clean himself up" quite well, thanks to his noble heritage.

Ooo, that'll keep you in shape though right? Some pros to it :P

It's usually year round, but the people who give us the houses to clean take off during the end of the year. Something about most of them not using their mandatory vacation days or something. I'm not old enough yet to know that much about working XD
