Name: River Wild
Age: 18
Race: Human
Height: 5'7
Weight: 131 lbs.

Job: Senior Knight of The Apocalypse


Appearance

A bit on the short side, River doesn't let it get to him. He's got short brown hair and brown eyes, a black vest over a short sleeve blue shirt, and black denim pants tucked into his brown boots. He has scars on his chest and back from his tortuous training. He wears black fingerless gloves to protect his knuckles.


Personality

Often found with a smug smile on his face, River oozes confidence and always looks for a reason to laugh, cry, or yell with furious anger. Needless to say, he's a bit emotionally unstable, often exaggerating his feelings. None of the extreme emotions he displays last long however, and he's usually back to his cheerful self in minutes.


History

Born to two low-ranking members of the Knights of Apocalypse, nobody expected much of River, except one man: Jensen Ambrose. Taking a liking to young River and his passionate heart, Jensen took it upon himself to give River very early training, forming a mentor/pupil relationship. With River barely in his teens however, Jensen left to go on his missions as a Senior Knight, and River never saw him again.

Despite this, Jensen's work was done. River's combat prowess was far beyond his peers, and the higher-ups noticed this and set him up with a personal trainer. Unfortunately for him, the trainer was known to be one of the harshest and most brutal of all mentors, and River developed a crippling phobia of women due to her tutelage. While her methods were equivalent to torture, they were effective, and he became one of the youngest Senior Knights at age 17. A year later, after much prodding and begging, he received the mission to go see his former mentor: Jensen Ambrose.


Skills

Capoeira: A martial art that mixes dance and fighting, River enters a series of loose movements that increases his ability to dodge and perform acrobatic attacks. He is above average at this skill.
-> Spinning Wheel Kick: River jumps onto his hands and spins his body around in a circle like a top, kicking anyone within vicinity of the attack.

Boxing: A mostly fists-based fighting style, River can use his arms to block and deliver powerful blows with his right fist, and fast attacks with his left. River is above average at this skill.
-> Uppercut: River performs a series of jabs that ends with an uppercut.

Mixed Martial Arts: An assortment of martial arts abilities including Jiu Jitsu, River uses unpredictable movements to fool his opponents. He is average at this skill.
-> Roll n' Hold: If River manages to fool his opponent with one of his moves, he can use the opportunity to roll under or past them, then quickly jump up and put his opponent into a choke hold.

Tonfa Specialization: River has an above average competency at using a pair of tonfa.


Abilities

Muscle Memory: River is a close-range prodigy. If he sees or feels a physical attack, he is able to copy it twice per battle, at the same power and speed that the person who performed it did. This puts a great strain on his body, so after doing this twice he's barely able to fight anymore.


Stats

STR: 1.00 - Stronger than the average person but not by much, can lift his own weight.

AGI: 2.00 - River is quite flexible, with a good reaction time to close-range attacks.

SPD: 1.00 - River can sprint far better than the average person, and catch up with someone's moves in combat.

END: 2.00 - After going through an intense training regimen, River suffers fatigue far slower than the average person, and is able to perform much better under pain and stress.


Inventory

-- A pair of red oak tonfa kept at his sides.

Alright, let's get down to business. So first things first you have too many abilities. As of level one you are aloud up to three. (Stats above normal are an ability)

As for your skills, you state that for boxing you can do an uppercut that is with strength of 1.25x normal. Does this mean that he does an additional 1.25x strength in the attack to his normal strength? Or as strong as his normal strength? (As in his ablility strength plus the uppercut?)

Same goes with the capoeira, 1.25x speed and normal speed boost?

That is all, make the edits and clarify the points I made and you should be good to go.

I've reduced a bunch of the stat things. The only abilities now are 2 stat boosts and Muscle Memory.
