Name: Kurayami Bloodborn
Nickname/Alias:Yellow 13 (callsign as a pilot)
Age:25
Race: Human
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 155 lbs
Occupation:Soldier/Airship Technician
Personality: Kurayami is often seen as a loner due to his reserved nature. This isn't entirely true , if one were to talk to him they would find that he is actually rather friendly once you get to know him. In spite of this he can be rather cold when it comes to certain circumstances and has a sarcastic streak that often shows up at inopportune moments. His sense of humor tends to be rather dark due to his experiences in past conflicts.
History: Born into an Alerian military family, Kurayami entered into military service at a young age. He served in the ground forces for a short time, before moving up to the navy and eventually gaining a post onboard an Alerian airship at the age of 22. While he was serving onboard he gained a rudimentary knowledge of Alerian Alchemy which only grew as he continued working on the alchemical contraptions that powered their airships he gained a deeper understanding of what needed to be done to not only repair them, but also how to create them.
This would lead to him attempting to recreate the workings on a smaller scale, however he has not had much success outside of very small scale models that soon ceased to function. The tinkering lead to him figuring out how to build the engines, yet it seemed that he was not quite advanced enough to make even small scale models function for long. If he hoped to one day not be just a mechanic on an airship his skills would have to increase many times.
The experiments had started simply as a way for him to understand better what he was working on and how to fix such devices. It soon developed into a much larger idea though. He wanted to create a small, personal aircraft. Not one that relied on balloons or other means to stay aloft. In his mind he could see what he wished to build, yet the technology needed was beyond his means to create or acquire. It was not something that he ever spoke of to others for fear of ridicule, but the dream remains a driving force for him. The design of his dream aircraft has changed many times, but he finally settled on one and keeps it under lock and key in his quarters. When he is able to get his hands on a better power source and a better grasp on alchemy he hopes to start construction.
Appearance: Close shaved dark brown hair and goatee, Angular features, Dark brown eyes, Slender, toned build, Pale skin, Often seen in military flight gear including the helmet and occasionally re-breather(he thinks nothing of wearing it and thus often forgets to remove the equipment after returning)
Skills:
-MIlitary training: Having spent the past 7 years of his life in the Alerian military, Kurayami is well versed with a variety of weapons.
- Alchemical knowledge: Having served in the Alerian military for 7 years and serving onboard an airship for almost half of that time, Kurayami has learned a good deal about Alchemy and its workings in relation to Alerian technology. Even so, he is far from an expert on the myriad of possible uses.
- Logical mindset: Given his profession of choice, he tends to analyze situations before getting too involved. There are times however where even this is not enough to keep him from saying or doing the wrong thing at the wrong time. It also seems to give him a cold outlook on many things when he is talking to others. This is not to say he is emotionless, but he tends to value the facts over feelings most times.
-Innovative: Kurayami is quick to find a solution, even under duress as long as he knows what he is working on well. If he is less familiar with the workings of a piece of technology then he will usually try to learn what he can of its working by taking it apart and studying how it all goes together. THis has lead to him learning how to modify parts to work as a temporary fix until they can be replaced with the intended piece.
-Capable melee fighter: With his enhanced abilities(speed, perception, and strength) he is capable of holding his own whether armed or unarmed combat.
-Ranged weapons: Decently accurate with ranged weapons, safety not always guaranteed.
Abilities:
-Enhanced Perception- Twice as perceptive as a normal human. Where this trait came from no one really knows, but for him things seem to be moving at a slower rate than other people would experience them. Along with his other abilities this has kept him out of the grave, even if he has had some nasty scrapes along the way.
-Enhanced Reflexes- Twice as fast as a normal person with his build. This has proven over time to be quite helpful for getting out of a bad situation when his mouth invariably gets him in trouble as it allows him to dodge a punch thrown by a normal man.
-Enhanced Strength-Twice as strong as a normal person with his build. In terms of how much he is able to lift, his maximum carrying capacity is 230 pounds. This isn't something that is only positive though as it means that though he has more strength he is not always a gentle in practice as he intends to be.
Equipment/Weapons: Military uniform, mechanics tools, breathing apparatus(usually only used at high altitude), Small iron dagger
