Devon Steel
02-01-14, 11:40 PM
Name: Devon Steel
Age: 19
Race: Human
Height: 5'10
Weight: 195 lbs
Occupation: Brawler
Personality: Arrogant, disrespectful, and combative. Devon despises the use of actual weapons in a fight, considering fist fighting the only true martial art. He will taunt and insult anyone he believes to be beneath him.
History: An angry child since birth, Devon constantly threw tantrums. To him, everything was his possession, and none were worthy of his time. Not even his family. This attitude earned him many spankings as a child, and many punches as a teenager. Devon gained intimate knowlege of the ways of street fighting.
He attended school until the age of seventeen, learning basic skills such as reading, writing, and arithmetic. He left his old life behind to seek his fortune... and someone worthy of testing his skills. He fights whenever possible, always striving to become the best brawler in all of Althanas.
Appearance: Devon(Image) (http://c.mfcdn.net/store/manga/4525/01-004.0/compressed/01.jpg) - Black Hooded Jacket, Black Pants, Black boots. White hair, ice blue eyes, and tan skin. Very defined musculature. Wears bandages around both hands.
Skills:
Hand-to-Hand Combat - Expert: Devon is able to attack using almost all parts of his body. This means he can effectively kick, punch, elbow, knee, headbutt, etc..(you get the gist.) He is very skilled in this department.
Instinctive Warrior - Adept: His senses and instincts are honed by years of practice and use. Devon doesn't have a particular fighting style, he just goes with the flow and acts before thinking. While he only uses basic moves, he knows where to put them to make them hurt.
Hemophobia: At the sight of his own blood, Devon will enter a berserker rage, attempting to obliterate whatever injured him. While in this state, he is impossible to communicate with and fights with the fullest extent of his abilities.
Reading, Writing, Rithmetic - Adept: While Devon is by no means a genius, neither is he stupid. He has a fairly decent grasp of basic intellectual skills.
Weaknesses:
Aggravating Personality: Devon is rude and abrasive at the best of times. This often gets on other's nerves, and has been cause of conflict on more than one occasion.

Underestimation: Devon has no respect for anyone who has not proven themselves worthy to him. Accordingly, he refuses to fight with his full ability unless completely necessary. This means he will often take a hit he could've possibly dodged if he thinks his opponent can't harm him.
Abilities:
IronSkin - Novice
“My skin has turned to porcelain, to ivory, to steel.” - Sansa Stark
- Devon hardens his skin temporarily(3-5 minutes/start of post used, end of next post.), multiplying his endurance by 2x. This can be used once per thread.
Lion's Roar - Novice
"It was the nation and the race dwelling all round the globe that had the lion's heart. I had the luck to be called upon to give the roar." - Winston Churchill
- Creates a strong shock wave from the diaphragm to create a powerful vibration, the user's skill determines the radius of the sound. It causes damage towards the inner ear drums, which in turn causes the opponent to slightly lose their sense of balance and their surroundings. (Can only be used when in Berserker Rage. Usable once per thread if conditions are met.)
