NAME: Drake Tatsuryu
ALIASES: N/A!
SPECIES: Demon/Human
AGE: Nineteen
GENDER: Male
STARTING PLANET: Earth
APPEARANCE: Drake is a smaller, yet still muscular and dangerous-looking, teenager. He stands at about 5' 9", a deceptive amount of power hidden beneath his seemingly wiry and small frame. His feature are rather soft for a guy, a fact that irritates him greatly when brought up, and a light dusting of freckles can still be seen across the upper cheeks. His hair is a jet-black styled arrangement, complimented well by his natural set of amber-hued eyes and passive sneer. A typical punk style makes up his usual wardrobe: Red leathers, jeans, spiked gloves, and a 'unique' hairstyle sure to set him apart from others. (Art coming soon!)
PERSONALITY: Volatile and impulsive, Drake has gained a reputation among friends and foes alike for his explosiveness, both literally and figuratively. While not downright hostile to everyone he meets, the boy projects a very strong ego and anyone who dares try even cracking it slightly will soon find themselves on the receiving end of a fist. Most often he projects a street mobster 'tough guy' persona befitting someone of his origin and standing in life. This all, however, is a front. Behind closed doors or when alone Drake is revealed to be a much softer and caring individual than he cares to let on out of a distinct fear of appearing weak to other elements in the criminal world. While he has many many 'friends' to hang out, none truly feel like people he can rely on or confide in. Either way he is a very motivated and driven person, determined to complete a goal once their mind is made up and unwilling to compromise except when thoroughly and soundly defeated. Despite this thuggish behavior, Drake is no fool. Acting twitchy and impulsive is partially a ploy, and while he isn't a genius by any stretch of the word Drake is a far smarter fighter and tactician than any would give him credit for at a surface glance.
BACKGROUND: Drake was one of two children - twins - born to Vern Tatsuryu: a powerful crime boss with hands in many underground sectors. He, along with his sister Fyre, carried with the ancient blood of the Tatsuryus. It was said that the original clan head had struck a deal with a Demon of Fire, blessing him and his bloodline with extraordinary power far above that of a normal human. This trait, while diluted over centuries, is still prevalent in children so long as the bearer is male. This, of course, led to a patriarchal-centered control on family and bloodlines. This fact surprisingly didn't create a rift between the siblings as they grew. Fyre was entirely uninterested in running the criminal side of things but still greatly enjoyed the thrill of fighting and wealth, while Drake was much the same except for his outwardly proclaimed desire to one day become the head of the Tatsuryus. Most of their lives was spent in relative luxury due to the money Vern held, and no expense was spared when it came to training both of them in martial arts and Ki manipulation.
It was Fyre, however, that held natural skill in the realm of Ki control and fighting, while Drake was far craftier and better suited to under-the-table movements and deals that would be emblematic of a criminal head. It seemed fate had been going the twins' way, right up until a car accident when they reached nineteen. Both were in the vehicle and by no fault of their own were struck by a wanton driver. Surprisingly, despite his lack of power compared to Fyre, Drake came out alive. While secluded away from the limelight for weeks to recover and properly train, the child of Vern eventually returned to the scene of crime, reassuring contacts and familial employees that he was well and would properly take on the mantle of heir to the Tatsuryus. Many in other crime groups called this a stroke of luck, given that Vern's wife had fallen infertile and if Drake had perished during the crash, they'd have no suitable heir that could be quickly put into place. For now, however, all there was to do was wait and see...
This next part is in spoilers for a reason! Unless you're staff checking for approval, I ask that you please don't read it as of now ^^
TECHNIQUES:
Spitfire [A1]: Drake fires a barrage of miniature 'bullets' given form by concentrated bits of flame, striking an enemy for 33% of his PL for 1 KP.
Flashpoint Fireball [UA2]: With a snap of his fingers, a modestly large orb of fire crackles into reality which is then summarily thrown at an enemy for 66% of Drake's PL, costing 2 KP.
Dragon's Breath [MA3]: Drake expels an encompassing wave of pure flame from his cupped hands or mouth, dousing an enemy in burning Ki for 100% of his PL. This costs 3 KP.
Through Fire & Flame [SIG]: Cloaking his favored arm in a wreathed inferno, Drake delivers a powerful direct punch that embodies the spirit of a Dragon, refusing to be snuffed out. This SIG can no longer be fizzled if it would've won the ensuing clash! (Traits: Stubborn)
Ash to Ash [SU1]: With a great burst of energy, Drake channels all his power into speed to dodge an incoming attack at or under 100% of his PL for 1 KP, leaving behind only a hazy puff of smoke in his wake. (8,000 Slot)
Draconic Guile [UT]: Drake has learned the common art of sensing, allow him to approximate someone's strength and location through their projected Power Level and/or aura. (16,000 Slot)
Disapparate [SIG]: Crumbling in a trail of white-hot embers, Drake expends little energy while dodging an attack at or under 50% of his PL for 0 KP. He can do this twice per thread. (24,000 | 32,000 | 40,000 Slots)

In truth it was Fyre that survived due to her natural resistance to damage. Struck by the death of brother and equally worried about the fate of the Tatsuryus if it was discovered that Drake was dead, Fyre decided to masquerade as her dead sibling with great reluctance from her father Vern to do such a deed. She struggles to maintain her disguise as the days stretch on, and sooner and later through accident or not someone is bound to discover her secret...
