Skills and Specializations
He is really good at barbecuing and cook up a good burger.
Mentality
He is a bit reserved because he keeps his emotions restrained. Through, he has grown a little more out of this constant restrain ,at least around those who he trust. To random people he comes off as always having a attitude while to those he is close with he is a bit more talkative and even slightly witty.
Another place that he shows more of his colors is in battle. He loves to fight and test his skills and craftsmanship against others. This love for battle also comes with a bit of guilt that he keeps under wraps. His distaste for heroes is less than what it used to be. He doesn’t respect them ,but he does understand them and their motives.
Power
He is a Templar tinker who specializes in creating power armor melee weapons, and a small assortment of range weapons out of darkness/shadows. His methodology isn’t focus on technological aspect of his tech ,but rather craftsmanship. He can introduce technology into his gear but it's through mechanical systems. The main part of his specialty ,Darkness, can be manipulated into gaining a physical form with a special property. All darkness has a shared existence as on part is apart of a whole. This means the durability stacks as to damage one part, you would need enough force to damage the whole. His darkness is also immune to light based attacks upon it.
When it comes to forging darkness into a physical form it doesn’t have a set texture or state ,so it can be knitted into a fabric or it can be pressed and layer into a form similar to steel. This leads to varying strengths.
Backstory
His life wasn’t like others as they would make sense when your dad is a gang leader. Until he turned thirteen everything was great, he got whatever he asked for and never had to worry about being picked on because everyone knew his dad. His dad made sure that he didn’t see the true side of what he did. All he knew was his dad was a boss of this company. This all changed when he turned thirteen as he dad saw this time to show him the family business.
This started with his dad showing him a drive by on one of the enemy gangs. Then it turned physical as his father wanted to make sure his son could handle a beaten.
His dad would beat until bloody and would punish him with kicks to the stomach when he was laying on the ground crying. As he grew older theses beatings grew more frequent since he wasn’t as fragile. His dad even would send out some of his trusted gang members to jump him when he was coming home from school ,so he would learn to always be on watch.
Some of theses attacks lead him to hospital and when the doctors would ask what was wrong, his father would lie about what happened.
His dad didn’t see this as abuse but only as training his son to be a man. This became his life and he grew to take each beaten with flinching or showing signs of pain. He learn to hold all his pain and emotions in until it reached its boiling point around his 18 birthday. He knew the time for him to take over the organization was coming and he dreaded every bit of it.
Theses thoughts plagued him during the night keeping him awake.
This is when he heard the sounds of his mother screaming no. He quickly hoped to his feet and winced as the recent bruises that stretched across his body. He walked over to their room in which he heard his mother’s now muffled voice.He slightly opened the door to see a figure above his mother and without thinking he rushed over. His blood was boiling as he couldn’t believe his father would go this low. He wrestled the person to the floor with them landing on top of him.
He caught a fist to the face which broke his nose and that pain is what sent him over the edge. He was caught in flashes of the years of beatens from his father and quickly flipped over so he was on top. His fist went down in a flurry and kept going until he beat the man to death. Then the lights came on and he saw his father by the door with a gun. Trigger.
