Distinguishing Features:
xxxxxxxxScars
Having been fighting since he was but a toddler it should come as no surprise the demon hybrid is marred by a variety of scars. His body canvas for disfigurements that remind him of past battles. The most noticeable of which a vertical slash that runs down his right eye at a slight horizontal orientation. Extending a bit above his right eye brow and down his cheek to be at even level with the corner of his lips. His face also houses another scar, a horizontal scar about an inch in overall length intersecting the previously mentioned scar an inch below the eye.
xxxxxxxxTattoos
Spiraling up his left arm, a traditional Chinese dragon of dark red hue can be seen, it's neck curling over the demon hybrids' neck/shoulder. The monsters head taking residence on the demons back, his right shoulder blade specifically. Menacing and intimidating in appearance, its eye seemingly lit with a furious untamed inferno of anger, blast of fire exploding from it's open maw. A blast of fire that would meet another stream of fire conjured by the dark blue dragon that spirals up his right arm, his head at the demons' right shoulder blade. The blue dragon appearing much calmer in comparison to its red counterpart.
Abilities/Powers:
xxxxxxxxClairvoyance
The ability to gain information about an object, person, location or physical event through means other than the known human senses. Sometimes referred to as psychic vision. Clairvoyance is the ability to see people, objects, scenes, words and symbols in your inner psychic eye. Include aura reading in this category: the ability to see someone's subtle energy levels manifested in either colors or waves of light appearing to come from the body. Clairvoyance is the ability to see pictures in your minds eye. It is the ability to visualize.
xxxxxxxxPrecognition
Also called future sight, it is a type of extrasensory perception that would involve the acquisition or effect of future information that cannot be deduced from presently available and normally acquired sense-based information or laws of physics and/or nature. While able to use this ability to it's full capabilities outside arenas of combat. When in battle, his mind fogged by pumping adrenaline it's advantages are only able to manifest three times.
xxxxxxxxxKi (Chi)
This force is a tangible energy inside a living being, its major focus being in the center of the body. By drawing it out, a person is able to manipulate it and use it for an array of performances outside the body. Ki can be used for many different techniques. When a fighter gathers Ki, he is able to gain enhanced strength, speed, endurance, and can increase the power of their attacks to inflict greater damage to opponents.
xxxxxxxxxFire Manipulation
Through the expulsion and manipulation of his Ki energy, Tankie is capable of creating and controlling fire. The involvement of ki renders him capable of great feats. Though even without ki, through means in-explainable by logic and science, he is still capable of creating the violent and wild element. The absence of ki limits his range of control severely however. Gives him limited control over naturally created fire.
xxxxxxxxxPryokinesis (limited)
The main difference from Fire Manipulation and Pyrokinesis is that Pryokinesis uses the mind to create and control flames. An ability that came about through extended use of his Clairvoyant abilities and his natural affiliations with fire. The demon find himself only able to create flickers of flames reminiscent to the flicker of a light or a match, it allows him him increased control of natural fire however. Almost to the level of his fire manipulation. It's main usage though, is to extinguish the flames of others, though this does not come without strain to his mind. The larger the conflagration the larger the headache. While capable of extinguishing sizable portions of wildfires, he'd likely fall into a week long comatose as a result.
Physical Abilities:
xxxxxxxxxStrength
He possesses a decent amount of strength. Not strength that would wow your average Gaia fighter, but he is a bit above the average. Benching a respectable 406 Ibs, and with a max lifting capacity of about 1200lbs, it's nothing to scoff at. His normal abilities magnified by ki he's capable of doubling the weight with only little strain. When his muscles twitch frantically creating a short explosion of force he can even add on another hundred or so pounds. If the weight he's attempting to lift requires his own strength multiplied by ki and his explosion, it's usually ends in torn or extremely strained muscles. So he tends to stay within his limitations.
xxxxxxxxxSpeed
The initial acceleration of a full out sprint puts him at about 40 mph, when falling into calm strides he lowers to about 35mph. As time elapses he usually slowly manages to progress back to his max acceleration. With ki added to his efforts he can hit 48mph, and if amplified by a 10 second burst of explosion in unison with his ki he can hit about 55mph. As with his strength combining the two can lead to strains and or tears.
xxxxxxxxxFire/Heat Resistance
Credited to his being a fire elemental or possibly even his demon lineage, Tankie find himself able to withstand temperatures exceeding the normal human capacity. For instance, he is capable of comfortably treading in temperatures upwards of three hundred fifty degrees Fahrenheit, before the effects of heat exhaustion start becoming apparent. Temperatures of about three hundred degrees or higher are needed before his flesh starts to burn.
xxxxxxxxxExplosion
No. This does not refer to those loud things that go boom. Rather the compact muscle and mass of fast twitch muscle fibers making up his being that allow Tankie temporary explosive increases in power or speed. If compounded with his ki it allows the completion of some impressive feats.
xxxxxxxxxxPain Tolerance
The result of fine tuning his body for combat ever since he could walk coupled with toughened skin and bones genetically passed down by his demon ancestors. The young males threshold for pain and ability to take damage without ill effects is considerable. A strike from a metal baseball bat that would break the arm of a human advanced in the fighting arts would only cause him a substantial amount of bruising.
Weapons:
xxxxxxxxxxxxFlame of a Thousand Suns
A Masamune nodachi blade aptly named for it's ability to channel and amplify heat/fire. It's more a keepsake, a personal treasure; a gift from a past mentor. It rarely sees combat.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxCombat Knife
Acquired with the intention of using it as a secondary weapon, the demon often times more than not will summon the 8 inch blade before even drawing A Thousand Suns. A black bladed KA-BAR fighting/utility knife with a serrated edge, 8 inches as mentioned before.
Equipment/Gear:
xxxxxxxxxxxTan Pants
Loose fitting tan pants that are bloused just above his ankles. Fabricated from material that provides some fire resistance.
xxxxxxxxxxxT-Shirt
Usually adorning his upper half are t-shirts of varying styles. Like his pants, they are fabricated from material that provide some fire resistance.
xxxxxxxxxxxBandaging
Plain white bandaging covering both hands in a fashion similar to finger-less gloves and his feet.
xxxxxxxxxxxBlack leather sheath
As stated, its a sheath made of black leather that is usually fastened around his waist. Used to carry his knife.
xxxxxxxxxxxArm Bracers
Bracers fabricated from some iron alloy, these bracers cover the demons forearms and provide some protection.
xxxxxxxxxxxBackpack
A simple black backpack. It holds an assortment of items.
xxxxxxxxxxxCombat Boots
Despite having through the years making it a habit to forgo traditional footwear, choosing instead to rock simple white bandaging. Tank can sometimes be seen donning a pair of dark brown military styled steel toed combat boots.
xxxxxxxxxxxFlask
A simple flask held within his backpack, it's contents are dependent upon his choice beverage for the day. Most commonly some form of rum.
xxxxxxxxxxxBottle of Scotch
Stored in his backpack is a bottle containing his favorite drink; scotch whisky. For those emergency situations where a distributor of alcohol is not readily available.
xxxxxxxxxxxFamous Quotes
A book titled the aforementioned. It is filled with quotes and phrases Tankie will often look to for guidance and inspiration. Also when a clever retort cannot be constructed quick enough.
xxxxxxxxxxxBrown Rope
A brown rope that usually serves no other purpose then keeping his nodachi blade secured to his back whenever he has the weapon on him. If not, it's neatly tucked away into his backpack. A good six and half feet in total length.
Brief History:
A demon-human hybrid whose early life was spent among the plains outside of Barton Town. When he came of age alongside his brother, Tukata, he'd begin training to become a warrior. Trained by a clan of warriors famous within the realm of Gaia; The Sakoya Clan. A clan who's ranks weren't filled completely with blood relatives but those whose ancestry could be trace back to a group of demons and human who fought together against a common adversary in a long forgotten conflict. Alongside his brother, Tukata, the two trained day and night to improved their craft. If he had not been born into the sect, viewing their ways as normal, he would have likely aimed to see his teachers heads on a platter. However, as this was not the case he did not question there method and enjoyed growing stronger alongside his elder brother. That was until he hit the age of fourteen ... (to be finished at a later date)
