NAME: Avarus
ALIASES: Boss, Big Red, Prez
SPECIES: Ki-Kin [Alien A] / Demon
> Jumpstart | An affinity for both magic and ki manipulation alike due to his heritage allows Avarus to often experiment and create more techniques at their skill level than warriors of a similar caliber. Avarus starts with two extra technique slots at character creation.
> Antisense | Held together mostly by pure energy, the Ki-kin are adepts at shaping and obstructing their own signatures from the sight and sense of others, rendering them completely undetectable by normal ki-sensing techniques.
> Transmit | With a mix of magical power and a physical form that is easy to move, teleportation is quite a possible feat for Ki-kin to perform. Short-range transmitting for the sake of dodges or travel isn't that taxing, while planetary leaps are exponentially more tiring. Once a month, they can ignore travel time between planets.
> Sluggish | Unused to regular, blitzing speed combat with enhanced individuals - Avarus isn't quite caught up in terms of sheer bursts in speed, making him unable to use afterimages until he reaches 40,000 PL.
AGE: Thirty
GENDER: Masculine
STARTING PLANET: Earth
APPEARANCE: Despite being humanoid-esque in appearance, Avarus is far from a 'normal' looking person by any races' standards. An absurdly tall fellow at nearly ten feet, the height is only accentuated by the thin, hard-edged outline of his janky body, looking more like a caricature rather than any sort of actual living being. Normally made of near-intangible energy, the half Ki-kin's bloodline mixed with a Demon's, giving Avarus a jet-black and sleek outer 'shell' that serves as his body and containment unit for the inner red power. A wispy, ethereal grouping of crimson energy serves as his 'face' - making up his eyes and mouth, though Avarus can freely restructure this free-floating energy into many a shape on his face akin to a technological device. Elongated and crooked claws take the place of fingers on his lanky hands, each one able to bend at several points for both maximum dexterity and to look plain grotesque. Nowadays, Avarus is often dressed in his signature outfit - a bright, unbuttoned red suit and trillby accentuated with white highlights, accompanied by black slacks, a white undershit, and a blackish-red tie.
BACKGROUND: From humble beginnings, both great heroes and awful villains alike arise. Though to call Avarus' early life 'humble' was a heavy understatement. Somehow, somewhere, a Ki-kin and a Demon made a child. Something that should have never happened in the first place, and this was illustrated by the near-murder attempt of dumping the newborn in a ditch on some backwater planet known as Earth. The first stroke of luck in his life came when a lumberjack had discovered him on the morning continue. The first, and the last stroke he'd have for long, long time. Of course to humans, the sight of the halfbreed was near repulsive even as an infant. The orphanage he was reluctantly admitted into reminded him of that often, citing his appearance as the reason why no prospective parents ever came for him.
Ugly he may have been, stupid he was not. Even as a child Avarus was far more physically capable than any adult around him, though he was careful not to let that show. He stole, cheated, and lied to keep himself entertained. Even when he took enough to properly feed his hunger, Avarus took more and more and more. Not to horde, nor to outright to share. He took because he wanted to take, and that was reason enough. His time around the poor orphanage taught him many things about this 'dog-eat-dog' world. One of which was that winners didn't play fair. The suspicious and hateful adults that surrounded him only served as tools to sharpen his skills. He came out of the orphanage as an 'adult' at age eighteen, a silver tongue and the abilities of a masterful thief backing him up.
What better way to finally enjoy life in this rotten world, than to tear it to pieces and cause those around him to crash and burn? Petty stuff like pick-pocketing or minor shoplifting went completely untouched. Avarus had big aspirations, and to fill such loft goals he needed to aim high immediately. His heritage both afforded him the luxury of hardly needing to train for access to both magical abilities and the far more common Ki manipulation. Gifts that Avarus was sure to abuse on his path of decimation. For his first move, the halfbreed subdued and subsequently took over leadership of a small-time gang operating in South City near the shore. From there a domino effect had begun. Piece by piece, more assets fell into Avarus' lap. His 'ugly' appearance now was a boon used to threaten or frighten his subordinates and enemies.
What better a story than for a nobody to suddenly hold enough money to do nearly anything? While most would use the excessive wealth in pursuit of the carnal pleasures - alcohol, gambling, and partners, Avarus dd none of that. Aside from opening new establishments and donning his now signature outfit, he did not spend his wealth. He had no goal or ambitions for it in mind, but simply had an urge to collect more. No matter who he trampled, ruined, hurt, he would amass more money. Why? ...Because he wanted to.
TECHNIQUES: FIVE slots total from jumpstart, but not using any yet.
