Noble Arm Abilities:

Liwanag ng Araw (Light of the Day/Sun) - Pablo glows with the light of the Sun, which allows him to dispel mundane and magical darkness, as well as illusions. It can also be used as a handy flash-bang.

Pagtatago sa Liwanag (Hiding in the Light) - Pablo can turn invisible to mundane and magical eyes, as well as cameras and other mundane tech... But only in board daylight or similarly bright illumination. The moment darkness falls, this invisibility ends.

Apoy ng Araw (Fire of the Sun/Day) - Pablo can unleash a wave of fire from his sword, a fire hot enough to melt metal, but not concrete.

Paghahanda para sa Paghahayag (Preperations for the Revelation) - Pablo burns himself in his own flames, then the resulting ashes scatter of their own will, moved by invisible winds to cover as wide an area as possible. Those touched by said ashes will then manifest avatars of their own sins and flaws, the inner darkness they previously suppressed. Should they defeat them, which is not guaranteed, Pablo will be ressurected with a rank up to his Noble Arm, a one-hour long rank up which allows him to access his last power.

Paghahayag (Revelation) - For an entire hour, Pablo glows brightly with the light of embodied, metaphysical truth which penetrates the mental defenses, magical defenses, self-delusions, and filters of anyone exposed to it, forcing them to confront the lies they told themselves and the lies others told them. Not just that, but it reveals the truth of what really happened to them and what they had really become, as well as what events in their lives had led them to take their path. This truth is shared not just with Pablo, but with everyone else who is within range of his light.

Misc. Abilities: Fencing, History and Literature, Basic Politics.

Personality: Pablo is a naturally reckless person who relies on his powers too often, but can take advice when needed. He also has a high opinion of himself and his intelligence, as well as a sense of self-loathing whenever this high opinion is proven to be wrong.

He is someone who wants to have friends, and goes to great lengths to get people to like him and keep liking him.

*Likes: Sweets, Swordsmanship, History and Literature.

*Dislikes: Bullies, Spicy Food.

Fears: Showing his darker side to his peers.

Bio: Pablo's great-grandparents were migrant workers who came to the city of Manila in the Magsaysay Administration, looking for opportunity, and unlike many others, finding it. While said great-grandparents were menial workers, their children, Pablo's grandparents, were lowly clerks, while Pablo's mother became a lawyer and his father an Eskrima instructor. And so, Pablo grew into some wealth and affluence, despite his mother frequently taking on cases for free. Despite this, Pablo's life seemed normal, although he was more intelligent than his peers by a large margin, to the point where he took advanced classes. This made him feel isolated, and also the target of bullies. It became worse when he realized that he was bisexual early on.

He was afraid that if anyone found out, he would be expelled from his family and left out in the streets; he didn't want that. But at the same time, this was what he was born with, and he couldn't change it - he tried. The only people he can confide his secrets to, as well as doubts, were people on the Internet. Yes, foolish idea, but as long as he didn't reveal his name and personal details, he would be all right, right? Wrong, because eventually, one of those people, a woman, found out his personal details and tried to blackmail him for money.

Pablo had to make a choice: Risk his secret coming out, or steal from what was not his? He chose the former, and he 'came out' to his mother that day. Surprisingly, his mother was understanding; not entirely approving, but not rejecting, either. And so they chose to confront the potential blackmailer together, Pablo's mother had a gun, just in case.

The blackmailer turned out to be one a former plaintiff that Pablo's mother had successfully prosecuted, and now sought to ruin the life of her family in response. She was also a Noble Arms master with a Gauntlet that manifested darkness. Caught in a trap, Pablo and his mother risked death...until Pablo manifested his own Noble Arm, the Noble Arm of Revelations. Taken by surprise, the blackmailer was defeated through a combination of quick moves and sucker punches by Pablo. And after that, the boy transferred to Trinidad Academy, rejecting offers from more reputable institutions because Trinidad Academy was both in his country and closer to home.

Besides, he wanted to see if the New Director could pull off what he promised...

*Current Goal: See if the New Director can make Trinidad Academy a place for heroes.

Student Rank: 1000
