Name: Kyros Biphron
Nickname(optional): Ky, Kitty, Tou-san (means Father)
Age: 23 years old
Gender: Male
Species: Mutated Human. Known to possess DNA of an electric eel, snow leopard, and unknown creature (unknown is actually dragon DNA but dragons are not thought to exist on Kyros’s world of origin).
Position: Good, currently looking for a job.
Powers:Martial Training: From the moment he was let loose, Kyros did almost nothing but train in Martial Arts. He usually has a random sort of fighting style, simply modeling his strikes and movements after animals, myths, and deities in order to create his own styles and techniques. He has no problem fighting unarmed against people with weapons as Kyros has had much time and experience against weapon fighters which allows him to stand toe-to-toe with people using projectiles or swords despite his only weapon being himself. The one style Kyros seems to actually use is a style known as the Fist of the Torn Sky which focuses on destroying an enemy completely from the inside and out. It is usually used only when Kyros has a serious fight on his hands as he is a peace-loving person and also has a life complex. The style is usually split into two subdivisions: The Merciful Fist of the Torn Sky, and the Raging Fist of the Torn Sky. Both stand for either knocking out the opponent or killing them respectively. This style is incredibly powerful, as it’s techniques aim for pressure points and nerves located on an opponent’s body which can cause effects from numbing parts of the body and paralysis to even making blood vessels rupture violently. A funny quirk, is that using this style’s techniques usually causes Kyros to scream like Bruce Lee when he fights. This style was originally called Hokuto Shinken (The Fist of the North Star) but Kyros’s master let him change the name once he made himself recognized as a master of the style. During techniques that originated in Hokuto Shinken, Kyros will call out “Hokuto! (North Star!)” as tribute to his dead master. When using one of his original techniques Kyros usually calls out “Shinha! (Truly Supreme!)” due to the sheer power of some of his techniques.
Dragon Breathing: The principle technique of the Fist of the North Star, known for unlocking a massive amount of power. Usually a person can only use 30% of their body’s strength. Through this technique and years of training, Kyros has unlocked and managed to control the other 70% available to him. This technique works by controlling the efficiency of the body and allowing more oxygen to flow to the body’s tissues and the brain allowing an increase in strength, speed, and thinking speed (though actual intelligence is unaffected). This also causes the muscles to expand rapidly, up to the level that Kyros becomes incredibly muscular and will always take off his lab coat to prevent ripping it when using this technique. This technique strains the body immensely though and cannot be kept going for more than 15 minutes unless he rests for two minutes every 8 minutes. Damage to body parts can also be multiplied because his body must spend energy to heal wounds along with recover from using Dragon Breathing. Kyros also bleeds faster because his blood circulates around his body faster and more efficiently.
Electric Generation: Due to his DNA containing sequences from an electric eel, Kyros has gained the ability to generate electricity and manipulate it limitedly using what martial artists call “Ki”. This power mainly comes from his tail, so damaging it will diminish the power. Using electricity drains energy from the body if he forces it out of his body for an attack (such as the Goha Geki Ken where he must make an entire dragon out of electricity). In order to conserve energy, Kyros uses this power to help reach nerves thought to be impossible to reach even with the Fist of the North Star. Whereas the limit of reachable pressure points was thought to be 702, Kyros has been able to reach 896 so far and with enough research and experimentation he could reach more. Kyros can use this power to charge up his needles and reach different pressure points located deeper in the body, but his needles are usually easy to avoid.
Mutation Rampage: If by some major unlikely circumstance Kyros gets angry, his mutation will spiral out of control. His body and muscles will grow and become more beast-like and his unknown DNA strands will begin to appear. He grows massive horns on his head and a helmet-like triangle shell, along with large fangs and what appears to be massive bat wings. His right arm will then surge with electricity and can shoot out high-powered bolts, and Kyros gains the ability to fly and shoot powerful beams from his mouth. The major price is that this lasts for a mere 3 minutes, and Kyros is completely drained of energy. While in this state, Kyros is a completely berserk entity and will attack friend or foe alike.
Weapon:Performs Hand to hand combat mostly, but has two long bracelets on his wrists that house many long acupuncture needles along with helping block the occasional sword strike. Yurei also technically counts as a weapon due to her ability to protrude spikes and her immunity to impact damage. This allows for Kyros to play with Yurei simply by having her roll up and he kicks her around.
Picture(optional):Kyros (ignore the tail =.=; )Yurei with restriction suitAppearance:Kyros is a man who stands at a good 6 feet tall and weighs in at about 170 pounds. Always dressed in casual blue pants and no shirt, he instead covers his upper body with a lab coat with the nametag “Yokomura” on it. He seems well built and a kind, caring man with his green eyes and soft white hair. Although his sharp nails and freakish tail say otherwise, he has very soft white cat ears on the sides of his head that he loves having scratched. His tail appears out of place, as it is long and somewhat the shape of a cat’s but is covered in green skin and has a large spiked spine running down it. This tail is evidence that he is mixed, even for a mutant.
His daughter Yurei seems a bit like him in some ways, but in other ways completely different. While she shares Kyros’s eyes and appears to be growing cat ears, she has blue hair instead of white. She also wears a special suit that prevents her ability to protrude spikes from harming other people, and is only 2 feet tall. She usually spends her time hiding inside Kyros’s backpack since she seems to like small, enclosed, warm places much like a cat.
Personality:Simply put, Kyros is a nice person. He loves his daughter just like a dad should and shows smiles and kindness to everything he meets. He’s also intelligent and very clever, as he tends to use sometimes unorthodox methods to avoid or defeat challenges presented to him. A lover of sweets, Kyros is also usually seen with a certain amount of candy on him that he also uses to treat Yurei with for good behavior and bribe other people with to avoid conflict with. Kyros is also incredibly curious due to his snow leopard (and to extension, cat) DNA and can be easily subdued if caught unawares by scratching posts, shiny objects, and generally anything that interests him can make him easily distracted. He also carries a life complex, ever since his master and friend died he has sworn to save as many living things as he physically can, and even attempted to befriend heartless at a point. He has a massive dislike for heartless and nobody’s, mostly because they threaten his daughter and other living things. Kyros’s complex has extended so far, that it is the sole reason Yurei exists, and Kyros will even protect silly things like bugs, flowers, animals, and trees.
There is his old personality though. Being trained to fight, Kyros can seem like an angered beast when fighting, all the way to baring his fangs and literally fighting like an animal by walking on all fours and biting and scratching things around him. This personality will come out when life is threatened, and the easiest way to do that is to threaten his daughter which sends him into a blind rage quite easily.
History/Background:Mutation. A science that is constantly theorized and experimented with. Imagine a world, much like any other world. Underneath it, lied the most sophisticated super soldier program known to it’s inhabitants, and that programmed spawned countless abominations and freaks doomed to die horribly. No matter what they did, whatever combination they used the experiment would end up dying of a cancer-like disease in which one DNA strand would try to dominate the other once puberty started. The funding for the project soon began to run short and they collected samples of all creatures, from magical to primitive and soon the last experiment was at hand. If this experiment died like the others, then that was it. The project would end. So, the scientists tried one last time, attempting to create a soldier with the intelligence and strength of a cat, along with the ability to discharge electricity like an eel. At the last moment, they were presented a mysterious DNA sequence unlike anything they had ever seen. Deciding to gamble on the sequence, they added it in and Kyros was soon born. He grew amazingly quick, becoming a full grown baby in only 6 months than the usual nine.
Seeing that Kyros would need training, they enlisted the help of a prisoner of war they had captured recently. From the age that Kyros was able to walk on his own, the little kitten-boy was taught the art of Hokuto Shinken from his master who he affectionately called “ShiShi” because he was like a big daddy lion to him. Unfortunately, being a weapon of war Kyros was eventually taught to kill and was sent out on covert missions to assassinate key targets or possibly even destroy entire platoons all by himself. Yet even though Kyros would do this loyally as he grew up, by the age of 16 his ShiShi began to teach him about the other parts of life. Love, compassion, happiness, Kyros was taught about all these things and how life was full of it if you fought for what made others happy. His loyalty to the facility that created him was shattered completely when he met the daughter of someone he’d killed and she explained her sadness and anger at him. Kyros asked the only kind scientist he had known at the facility to explain what death was and why he was dealing it. Distraught over how he was depriving others of happiness, Kyros asked his ShiShi what to do. His ShiShi was pleased that Kyros had finally become more than a mere killing machine and taught him all of the techniques of Hokuto Shinken in hopes that Kyros would learn to use these techniques in order to escape and make the world a better place.
Finally at the age of 20, having become proficient Kyros and his ShiShi attempted to break out of the facility. With the help of the kind doctor they managed to make it almost halfway unnoticed until they were discovered by accident and the doctor who had helped Kyros know human kindness was shot and killed. Even though he was mentally broken over her death, Kyros still continued to fight alongside his ShiShi until they were almost at the end. There, they faced the other abomination of the facility, a man who had gone through numerous drug treatments and turned out a giant. It was a tough battle, one which took Kyro’s ShiShi’s life but Kyros managed to kill the brute and make it out in one piece.
Kyros had taken multiple samples and experimental data with him when he escaped and using this he began research on how to cure mutation should he ever come across another mutant like himself. This research was also how Yurei was formed. One day in the lab at the age of 22, Kyros spilt a sperm and egg sample together and had a fertilized egg in a petry dish sitting in front of him. The sperm sample happened to be his own from earlier in his life when the facility was checking his DNA for defects and since Kyros had developed a complex about life he obsessively made an artificial womb and transferred the zygote into it and taking care of it. Much like himself, Yurei grew incredibly quick and within 6 months the artificial womb collapsed and Yurei came out of it. The thing was, when she came out her heart was not beating and she was not breathing. Kyros went into despair as he had failed to give her life, but five minutes later Yurei miraculously began to breath and her heart was beating. Ever since then, Kyros would take care of Yurei and raise her as his own daughter, naming her Yurei because it meant “Ghost” because Yurei should have died the day the womb collapsed.
It was after a year of taking care of Yurei, that heartless took over and Kyros and Yurei ended up in Radiant Garden since their world was gone. Kyros always thought that the heartless would take their world one day. They had existed on his world for some time and he had fought them occasionally but lately they had been coming up everywhere. Deciding that Radiant Garden was well protected and the facility was no longer chasing him, Kyros now lives there with his daughter Yurei working wherever he can to earn a paycheck.
Role Playing Sample:“ShiShi! ShiShi!” Kyros cried out as his master lay against the wall, bleeding from his abdomen. Immediately he looked around in a panic, trying to find bandages or something to seal up the wound all the while that brute came ever closer ready to stomp on them both. “Hehehehe… oi, oi, leave that and show me what we were working on.” His ShiShi said weakly as blood began to drip from his mouth. It was bad. Abdomen sliced open, spine broken, a collapsed lung. He wasn’t going to survive this.
“This is no time for techniques ShiShi, we need to seal you up a-“ He began before his ShiShi placed a hand over his mouth to cut him off. “I have taught you many things. I have taught you that in order to save lives, lives must be taken. I have taught you to prevent death as much as possible. Let me tell you one last thing. When a person is dying, do them a courtesy and give their last request would you? Now then… show me that technique we were working on…” ShiShi explained softly as he pulled his hand away from Kyros’s mouth. Kyros was in tears now. Not now. Why him? Why the one man who had been his father since he would remember? The answer escaped the young man as he tightly grasped his ShiShi’s hand and silently cried himself silly before wiping his tears and standing up.
“Alright… please do me the courtesy of watching till the end…” Kyros whispered solemnly as the brute then found them and charged towards the student and his dying master. Taking a deep breath, Kyros roared before letting out the infamous Bruce Lee screech and back-fisted the giant behind him, snapping the bridge of his nose. He let the air course through him, as he performed Dragon Breathing and his muscles expanded while he roared and he directly slugged his opponent in the gut to stun him slightly. With his opponent’s guard down, Kyros began to scream and yell wildly with cries of “WUAAATTATATATATATATATA!” filling the air as he punched at every pressure point he knew of on his enemy’s upper body before roaring one last time and delivering the final palm strike straight to his heart.
“Hehehehehe… Hokuto… Hyakuretsu… Ken…” His master whispered with happiness before his breath left him and his eyes closed in peace. Kyros stood there, his opponent completely obliterated as he knew who had left the battlefield of life. “Rest in peace… ShiShi.” He uttered sadly before he walked off solemnly towards the exit.
That day, two people had finally been set free…
