Garrus Kain Empty
PostSubject: Garrus Kain   Garrus Kain Icon_minitimeMon Nov 11, 2013 5:47 pm

Name: Garrus Kain

Age: 25

Gender: Male

Symbol: None

Occupation: Vigilante,Hero to all,Guardian of Vale,Defender of all that is good in the world and the Vanquisher of evil.  


Appearance :  Garrus is rather large compared to the normal civilian. standing at 6' 3" Garrus is very muscular with a strength to match it. In some definitions he is rather handsome in a knightlike sense. His faunus blood gives him brown wolf ears poking out of his brown hair along with wolflike fangs in his mouth. With this he has brown eyes that like most faunus have night vision. He rarely wears normal clothes and instead wears his suit of armor that was handed down to each hero of the Tribe for generations. It is a large and bulky white plate armor with a metallic yellow accents around most of the edges. The plates themselves have been adjusted to allow Garrus to move around in it a little better. There is no helmet to this set legends say that it was lost by the eighth hero.


History
:  Garrus was born the first son in an isolated village far from civilization. The tradition of their clan dictates that the firstborn son shall become a “Hero” for the village. His brother Izo the firstborn son naturally came to hate him. He underwent rigorous training every day of every month. He became an icon for the village where his brother continued to fall further and further out of the spotlight. When he was 21 his brother Izo had grown tired of it all, Izo killed their parents along with the village elder. For some reason Garrus was left alive for a reason even he cannot understand. Izo fled the village and his location or what he has been up to  is unknown by Garrus. Garrus has also left what is left of the village to find his brother to either get revenge for the lives he took or to bring him back...it all depends on how far Izo has fallen. Garrus with no outside knowledge of the outside world somehow ended up in Vale continuing his search. Who knows maybe he can do some “Hero” work while he is at it. He has already taken down several small street gangs (and one cult) so who knows what he will set his sights on next?


Personality
: Garrus is rather self confident...maybe too confident and thus can act a little brash at times. Him being a hero forces him to be (somewhat) honorable person who always tries to do the right thing at least what seems to be the right thing. He always makes sure to play the good guy but he usually comes off as rather ignorant and trying too hard to look tough. His method of speaking makes him seem more like a stereotypical knight in shining armor. His voice also audibly deepens to a more “Herolike” tone. Garrus has been doing this so long no one can tell the difference.

His mind also runs off of fantasies and could often be caught “Dreaming” about a rather good looking lady who may have entered the room. He will often go on about “Saving the damsel in distress” if he is doing any work involving helping females of any kind. He is also likely to try to subtly flirt with anyone female hoping to "find his princess".
Of course that is nothing but a facade to appear more hero like. It was mostly made due to the pressure to become a hero he created it due to pressure by the tribesmen to be more “Hero like”. He himself is rather weak in self confidence and is quite timid.
Despite not being a member of the White Fang even though he is a faunus Garrus cannot stand racists or racism of any kind. Although he is unlikely to become violent and will usually remove himself from the area before he gets angry.
Garrus also cannot stand thugs,murderers and general lawbreakers one bit. Due to there being no police for in his home village Garrus is likely to matters in his own hands and “Teach them a lesson”. Corrupt official police are not exempt from this either claiming it is for the “Greater good”.
Garrus does not anger easily either and dislikes showing people any side of himself other than his facade.

Strength: Strong...like very very strong physically. It is rare to see someone with the strength to wield one of the  warhammers  let alone two of them. When at his peak he can hold 150 lbs on each arm while only straining himself mildly. His strength allows him to wield the Juggernauts for as long as they are needed assuming he hasn’t taken any battle damage.

Weakness: Garrus is already slow being quite large and wearing a heavy suit of armor. If he is using Serenity as a weapon his speed does not suffer as bad but if he happens to be using Juggernauts his movement and attack speed both take large hits.

Semblance: The Heros burning will: This semblance is separated into stages. Garrus can switch between stages or not using it at all at will quickly.

What this semblance itself does is encases Garrus in flame with each stage becoming more powerful. It should be noted this flame does not affect Garrus or his weapons and armor.

Stage 1: This stage is obviously the weakest of the 3 stages. This stage covers his arms and most of his and torso in bright flames.

Stage 2: In this stage Garrus has had his entire upper body covered in flame with flame only reaching his knees and very little on his head.

Stage 3: At this point Garrus is encased in the flame with no features shown with there only being the inflamed outline of him. His eyes also take on a bright red glow that is the only thing that shines past the immense wall of flame. The flames produced in this form are nearly three times as hot as the flames in stage 2. Garrus is also able to produce flame much faster than in the other forms.

Garrus is also able to control and manipulate these flames with the ease and strength of manipulation growing higher in each stage. The flames are usually directed using hand gestures and can be difficult to control while using two handed weapons as it will usually end up following his blade. Of course going too far away from Garrus will cause the flame to fizzle out hence this is usually a close range semblance. The maximum range during stage 3 is 35 feet with the flame going from a roaring fire to a small spark anywhere past that.

Of course there would be a drawback to this. Whenever Garrus uses this ability it takes a toll on his body and muscles. Stage 1 is able to be sustained for quite a while before needing to stop whereas stage 2 can cause intense pain after continued use and minor bleeding. At stage 3 Garrus is in danger of major wounds and things of the sort. Internal bleeding is very likely with the possibility to pass out from blood loss so this is usually saved for Life or Death situations or to defend a friend who is in danger.  


WEAPON(S)

Name:  Serenity

Primary Form:  A blade that is attached under the forearm of the user. The blade can extend and retract to a total of 30 cm out of the wrist. The blade extends by the manipulation of the users aura so it can be deployed and retracted hands free but does not use their aura in any other way. The blade extends at very high speeds and is mostly used for stabbing instead of slashing but can still be used for both if the need arises. He has one attached to both his right and left forearm.  The blade fits perfectly under his armor and is perfect to ensure Garrus is never unarmed. The hammers are usually placed on his back in a special sheathe with the handles facing up so that they are easier to draw.

History: Handed down to him by his mother who was an expert in stealthy kills and things of the like. Sadly Garrus decided that  this weapon deserves to be used by a warrior in the heat of battle and thus is hardly ever used for the “Stealth” it once was. If it wasn't obvious this weapon was named by his mother.


Name: Juggernauts ( As in plural they are both called Juggernaut)

Primary form: Dual warhammers  that are made from steel and colored a bright white. On the top of the hammer part there is a small spike made for delivering finishing blows or for all your stabbing purposes. Despite it not being too difficult to swing around these hammers are still slow but pack one hell of a punch when they hit.

Secondary form: The spike on both the Juggernauts can grow cover the hammer area as the hammers retract into a smaller area to form Dual Spears. It is more effective to use one spear at a time so most of the time Garrus will only use one Juggernaut for this form unless he feels it is necessary.

History: Given to him by his father who was a great warrior. His father was also able to wield this weapon one handed and trained Garrus in most of his combat skills but some of them are self taught. This is the weapon that Garrus trained with to gain his massive strength and  uses it regularly to keep the strength up.

Bold and underline have their place in the profile for a reason. Yours is rather hard to read, and if we can't read it, we can't judge it.

While I'm not fond of the hair-fur mismatch with his hair and ears, regardless of jokes to the contrary it's not enough to reject Garrus out of hand.

Strengths and weaknesses could use some expansion.

The problem, however, start coming with Aura, specifically the third stage of his semblance.

"The flames produced in this form exceed the heat of almost any flame." - So his third stage form is hotter than a steel cutting torch? It's hotter than itself? It's hot enough to liquify the ground under his feet and send him plunging down an ever-lengthening tube of lava down into the planet's mantle? Therein lies the problem of these kind of open-ended "greater than" statements.

Weapons aren't too bad.
