    Koli (Level 1)

    Name: Koli

    Age: 33. ages at 1/4 the rate of a normal human, keeping his appearance at his prime longer

    Race: Hero-Human

    Height: 5'7"

    Weight: 145lbs

    Occupation: Ex-Priest

    Personality:
    While in the brotherhood Koli was taught many traits. Some were even instilled into his mind. He was raised with humility, tolerance, and the power to tell right from wrong. Koli was raised to be a righteous man and give 100% of himself to any cause he commits to. In the brotherhood he had to hold his tongue and only speak when spoken to, or when speaking was an absolute necessity. He uses very few words, but each word is extremely powerful when he does speak. Although he left the brotherhood, some old practices die hard.

    Koli does not speak unless absolutely necessary, but nor does he hesitate to assist those in need. He values life and does not take it for granted. Even though he does not hesitate to save life, he will not hesitate to take it from those who will endanger or kill others. Not only does he ponder his every word, but he ponders every action as well. He can think things over and work out situations in his mind with fractions of a second. He always finds the best possible solutions to problems, and does not regret when plans go south. Regret is a poison which has been burned out of him.

    History:
    Koli was born of two heroes. Both his mother, and his father were born of heroic blood which now courses through Koli's veins. After a particularly vicious battle with a narrow escape, his parents decided that they did not want Koli to have the life they did. They always had to keep moving, with no home. Always having to change their identities and being in constant danger, they made the decision to leave Koli in the hands of an old friend's organization; the Iusti Brotherhood.

    The heartbroken mother reluctantly handed a happily gurgling baby Koli to the head priest of the brotherhood, Abbas Amo. Ever since Koli could walk, Amo taught him the ways of the brotherhood. Abbas Amo had raised many children before, but he felt an attachment to this one. He raised Koli the closest that he ever could to being one of his own sons. He taught him everything he knew and vowed to make a fine priest out of him. When Amo could not train Koli in specific areas, he had others teach him in his place, so Koli was always learning from the most experienced master in the brotherhood.

    Naturally, Koli excelled at everything he did, and learned faster than any other monk had in the history of the brotherhood. By age 26 Koli had completed every task a monk must complete to be named a priest. By age 28 Koli had mastered every one of the tasks, and by age 30 Koli was named as the youngest monk to ever become a priest in the history of the brotherhood. From then Koli began his advanced training among the priests to become a priest advanced in the lore of the brotherhood, but all came to a screeching halt when Abbas Amo had fallen deathly ill.

    After Abbas Amo died Koli was left in a grieving state for roughly a year. When he returned to his duties and training in the brotherhood, he found that the new head priest wanted to make many changes within the organization. The brotherhood originally stood for God, and righteousness. Each monk was trained in all superior fighting styles with weapons and martial arts styles, but such power was only used to protect the city the brotherhood dwelt in. The city was always under attack from monsters, enemies, and spies. The new head priest would change everything.

    When the head priest came to power, he turned the brotherhood from a noble organization of protection and righteousness, to a corrupt group of power hungry warriors. The new head priest essentially turned the whole brotherhood into a cult of mercenaries who expanded power and influence among their homeland. The town they once defended was now untouched for fear of the cult, and the corrupt head priest who had now turned evil. Righteousness was no longer a word to the group, and Koli did not like this one bit.

    Staying true to himself and to Abbas Amo, Koli left the group he once called his own in search of the righteous path. What was once a strong, humble brotherhood now towered over all as a vicious, evil cult. Koli saw what this did to those he loved, and from then on a new hatred was etched into his heart. A hatred of evil.






    Appearance:
    Because of his lack in training of his attributes, Koli looks smaller than other civilians. He is skinny and uses his smarts rather than pure strength and speed. His eyes are a pure white, though not one solid color. He has a younger looking face, appearing thirty three years of age. his hair is a dark black and is usually up in a samurai style ponytail. Koli wears a white hood that covers most of his face. Koli wears a long white robe with a black belt around his waist. The belt buckle is a shining gold. Koli wears a black iron shoulder piece on his left shoulder.






    Skills:

    Martial Arts:

    Jiu Jitsu-
    A fighting style which is mainly focused on grappling and ground fighting. The style focuses on technique and leverage, taking the opponent to the ground, and then using chokeholds and joint locks to defeat the enemy. Koli has mastered this style of martial arts, and is an elite when using it in combat.

    Muay Thai-
    A combat sport from the muay martial arts that uses stand-up striking along with various clinching techniques. This physical and mental discipline which includes combat on foot is known as "the art of eight limbs" because it is characterized by the combined use of fists, elbows, knees, shins and feet, being associated with a good physical preparation that makes Koli very efficient. Koli has mastered this style of martial arts, and is an elite when using it in combat.

    Judo-
    Judo is most prominent feature is its competitive element, where the objective is to either throw or takedown an opponent to the ground, immobilize or otherwise subdue an opponent with a pin, or force an opponent to submit with a joint lock or a choke. Strikes and thrusts by hands and feet as well as weapons defenses are a part of judo. Koli has mastered this style of martial arts, and is an elite when using it in combat.

    Aikido-
    Aikido is performed by blending with the motion of the attacker and redirecting the force of the attack rather than opposing it head-on. This requires very little physical strength, as Koli "leads" the attacker's momentum using entering and turning movements. The techniques are completed with various throws or joint locks. Koli has mastered this style of martial arts, and is an elite when using it in combat.

    Wing Chun-
    Wing Chun utilises both striking and grappling while specialising close-range combat. A correct Wing Chun stance is like a piece of bamboo, firm but flexible, rooted but yielding. This structure is used to either deflect external forces or redirect them. Balance is related to structure because a well-balanced body recovers more quickly from stalled attacks and structure is maintained. Wing Chun trains the awareness of one's own body movement derived from muscular, tendon, and articular sources. Performing Wing Chun's forms such as Chum Kiu or the Wooden Dummy form greatly improve proprioception. Wing Chun favours a high, narrow stance with the elbows kept close to the body. Within the stance, arms are positioned across the vitals of the centerline. Shifting or turning within a stance is carried out variantly on the heels, balls, or middle (K1 or Kidney 1 point) of the foot depending on lineage. All attacks and counter-attacks are initiated from this firm, stable base. Wing Chun rarely compromises structure for more powerful attacks because this is believed to create defensive openings which may be exploited. Structure is viewed as important, not only for reasons of defense, but also for attack. When the practitioner is effectively "rooted", or aligned so as to be braced against the ground, the force of the hit is believed to be far more devastating. Additionally, the practice of "settling" one's opponent to brace them more effectively against the ground aids in delivering as much force as possible to them. Koli has not yet mastered this skill, but is adept, and can use this style to easily defeat an opponent.

    Jeet Kune Do-
    Jeet Kune Do uses simple and direct, or straightforward, movements and non-classical style. Jeet Kune Do practitioners believe in minimal movements with maximum effects and extreme speed. The system works by using different "tools" for different situations, where the situations are divided into ranges, which is kicking, punching, trapping, and grappling, where martial artists use techniques to flow smoothly between them. Koli has mastered this style of martial arts, and is an elite when using it in combat.

    Krav Maga-
    Krav Maga consists of a wide combination of techniques sourced from boxing, savate, Muay Thai, Wing Chun, Judo, jiu-jitsu, wrestling, and grappling, along with realistic fight training. Krav Maga is known for its focus on real-world situations and extremely efficient and brutal counter-attacks. Krav Maga has a philosophy emphasizing threat neutralization, simultaneous defensive and offensive maneuvers, and aggression. Koli has not yet mastered this skill, but is adept, and can use this style to easily defeat an opponent.

    Ba Gua-
    The practice of circle walking, or "turning the circle", as it is sometimes called, is Baguazhang's characteristic method of stance and movement. Baguazhang contains an extremely wide variety of techniques as well as weapons, including various strikes (with palm, fist, elbow, fingers, etc.), kicks, joint locks, throws, and distinctively evasive circular footwork. As such, Baguazhang is considered neither a purely striking nor a purely grappling martial art. Baguazhang practitioners are known for their ability to "flow" in and out of the way of objects. This is the source of the theory of being able to fight multiple attackers. Baguazhang's evasive nature is also shown by the practice of moving behind an attacker, so that the opponent cannot harm the practitioner. This is Koli's favorite and most used fighting style, and his skills in this style are above mastery. Using this style can allow his to evade almost any attack sent his way.

    Tai Chi-
    Tai Chi focuses on alignment, body structure, breath, and visualization. It is a hard and soft martial art technique, demonstration competitions, and longevity. Koli has mastered this style of martial arts, and is an elite when using it in combat.

    Languages:

    Koli has at least a small understanding in all languages known to Althanas. Those that are the most common are the languages he speaks best.

    Koli is also skilled in all other skill that are necessary to staying alive. This includes:
    Alchemy, Fishing, hunting, cooking, building, creating a fire, and anything else needed to stay alive in the wild.





    Abilities:

    Illusion:
    Being raised to the brotherhood, Koli has been taught the lore of the Priests. One of the brotherhood's most valued techniques is the power of illusion. Koli can create illusion so powerful as to be visible, audible, and giving off odor. He can create an illusion the size of a dog with sounds and odors visible, audible, and smell-able from about 15 feet away from the projected area.

    Soul Forged Weaponry:
    Another valued art of the brotherhood taught to Koli is the power to create weapons out of mind, energy, and willpower. Koli can use this technique to create any particular weapon suited to his liking or fighting style. Any weapon he creates will have the strength of iron, and can only be used for 9 posts, at which point Koli must wait another 9 posts to use again. The weapon can either be dispelled by Koli, or disappears when moved more than 10 feet away from himself. Koli cannot create any ranged weapons that are not thrown. (So he can create throwing knives or javelins)

    Powers of Heroism

    Eyes of a Hero:
    Because his parents were part of a rare heroic species, their bodies each have unique powers added to them. Koli's special powers are added to his eyes. Naturally his irises are plain white, but when he needs assistance with his work he will draw upon his innermost power called heroism to gain techniques or advantages. When he draws heroism power, it alters the very physics of his body. The colors of his irises change according the advantage or technique he gains.

    Calming (Bright Green)-
    When Koli meets any person in a traumatized, shell shocked, panic stricken, or grief stricken state he will draw upon his inner heroism which will turn his irises bright green. Upon drawing from his heroism and using the power in this manner, victimized characters will be calmed upon looking into Koli's eyes. If the victims need assurance, Koli will speak and the sound of his voice will soothe the agitated. Koli can calm angered, or irritated characters with his voice, and soothe the pain of wounded characters by looking into their eyes and speaking softly to them.

    **LOCKED** Fear (Blazing Purple)-
    Whether in battles or everyday life, Koli absolutely DETESTS evil. If he sees somebody in the act of, fighting for, or about to do evil he will stare at them and draw from his heroism. The hatred in him is visible in his irises which blaze a violent yet righteous purple, instilling fear of evil into the hearts of foes. After sustaining this mental wound, they will have an extreme fear instilled in them whenever they think of doing evil, assisting with evil deeds, or just think of evil in general.

    Equipment/Weapons:

    Koli has no real weapons, instead relying on his conjured weapons. as for supplies, he gets everything he needs from his surroundings, whether it is food or shelter.
