In a cataclysm known as the Nightfall, the worlds were almost completely destroyed by a harrowing surge of darkness.
In the shadows of the ensuing chaos a new group has taken shape. Led by an Aegyl named Kalos, the 11th Hour touts an esoteric knowledge of how to combat the darkness and restore the worlds. They might be the worlds’ best chance at survival; but nobody really knows enough about them to confirm or deny their claims.
On the brink of collapse, the universe holds its breath in anticipation. Of restoration? Of destruction? It is up to individuals like yourself to decide.

Position: Chaotic Neutral
Powers/Abilities/Techniques/Skills:

HEARTLESS-- Losing his heart to the darkness, Ike has become a Heartless, a being of darkness that preys on other hearts for sustenance in order to survive, and as one who has retained human form, he is a bit more powerful than normal heartless.
Weapon/Items:
Skeith - a curved short sword crafted for unique purposes. Not only is it usable for close combat, but with it's shape it can be used as a sort of boomerang, which when thrown can hit far off enemies and return to the owner.
Picture:
Appearance:
Ike has somewhat of a wild appearance, since living on Gran Pulse has made him a hunter. His body is lean and toned pretty fairly, letting others know that he's no pushover. In measures, his body weighs a nice hefty 210 pounds while he stands at an impressive 6"5 in height. However, before he was never this tall or that muscular, yet the change to a Heartless allowed his body to become more suited for fighting.
His facial features also feature and contribute to his wild look. One would be his hair, which is colored dirty blonde and is quite messy and unclean, having reaching all the way down past his collar bone and tinged orange. His eyes are a red-orange and his ears are pointed, with his body sporting a few scars around his torso.
For attire, well, Ike as a hunter believes that much clothing really wears a person down. So for that matter, Ike chooses to wear little clothing. The area's that are bare of any cloth are his upper body and feet, leaving just his lower body. He wears a pair of baggy yet torn pants that are cut right above his feet.
Personality:
Predator, that is a rather perfect word to describe Ike. A ruthless hunter who will never give up on making sure that his prey suffers and is tired enough for him to move in for the kill. He just loves the hunting more than the actually killing really, it gives him such a rush that he can't get enough of. Heck, if he can, he'll try to leave his prey alive with little breath once he catches them, just so they can recover and he can hunt them again. This only happens to those that prove to be a real challenge for him though, which he just absolutely loves.
When he's not too busy killing and hunting, Ike likes to be active. He's not really much into being a couch potato, more or less he's be out training, working out, heck, he'll even try to strike up conversation with people, in which he comes of as a carefree man with no responsibilities. Though chances are he will make them his next meal, it's just something for him to do. He just really hates standing still and doing nothing, it irks him if he's not up and about.
Original World: Gran Pulse; Archylte Steppe; ?-?-? AF Current World: Traveling
History:
Ike was born in the plains of Gran Pulse, during an unknown time in the Archylte Steppe. Ike was born into a small hunter camp on the western part of the plains, there, he learned how to survive and live. It was tough, especially since he needed to learn how to defend himself against wild creatures at such a young age. However, he did show a little bit of promise to be a professional hunter, around the age of 15 though. However, that didn't stop him from practicing his skills, until he became a well skilled hunter.
He soon started joining hunting groups at the age of 19, where with a little help he was able to take down various creatures. As he kept on hunting it soon turned into an obsession for him. No longer did he hunt for food, but he started hunting for pure sport. However, he knew that this was a bit looked down upon by the other hunters, who valued the wild creatures. So that meant that Ike did his sport hunting in secret, usually in the night time where he could sneak off from the others or in the outskirts of their territory.
Then it started to become crazed, his lust for the sport and the taste of meat took over his mind. His kin soon began to notice him missing during the night as well as during the day, since he decided to become more bolder in his own personal hunts. It wasn't long till people weren't really comfortable with him and his actions, so they decided to exile him, but Ike wouldn't leave.
It was then that they sent a pair of men to force him out of their camp. However, Ike was not going anywhere without a fight, using his knowledge of hunting and trapping tactics, he managed to fatally injure them. He didn't seem them as people anymore, not even as his own kin, they were just prey to him. Smart prey that would give him a good challenge, and he knew that, so as they were tending to the injured, he ran off.
He moved to live out in the wilderness of the Steppe, occasionally hunting the hunters from his previous home. He didn't care for them anymore, not in the least. His actions and corrupted mind began to light a small spark of darkness in his heart. That darkness was soon a small fraction of the reason why the Heartless invaded his world, though, really, it was a beacon for them to find him more easily.
As he was targeted by the Heartless, he tried to fight them off himself, but they outnumbered him and overpowered him and stole his heart. However, his heart had been corrupted during his life, the thrill of killing, the murderous intent, his heart had turned black and attracted darkness to it. As it did, it gave life to a Heartless, Ike's heartless. As a Heartless he kept his old name and decided to leave his world, in search of new hunts.

Hiyaaa
The overall silhouette and framework is fine; if we look at the plain aspect of how Humanoid Heartless = rotten people or people who willingly gave into darkness...this is fine.
My problem is that...there's no ryhme or reason for why he acts this way; it's just happened. There isn't any buildup of his background that would explain why he's the person he is. Generally the best villains have a 'method to their madness' in why they are the way they are.
Xehanort is hoopla because he thinks light overshadows darkness and thinks the world needs to be rewritten with darkness to ensure perfect balance.
Gaston is just an overal prick because he is the best of the best and feels he's entilited for anything and everything he desires, and anything that gets in his way...needs to be taken care of.
Jafar wants control because he's been an advisor for a stupid blubbering Sultan, and while he's getting his ducks in the row...the Princess is threatening to get rid of him once she gets married.
Cruella is a woman living in the fantasy of youth, so she lives in fashion to keep up with the appeal, which led to her love for fur in the fashion industry. Plus who is anyone to say no to Cruella DeVille?
Ursula been banished from Atlantica and turned from riches to rags. While she's in exhile, all the other merpeople are partying, so now she wants to uproot Triton to have her place back...and used Ariel as leverage...and used Ariel's love...as lure. (Talk about manipulation).
I'm not saying give him a sob story, but...at least give probable cause of Why he would become this hearltess hunter. Oooo ooo another 'antagonist' I'm like is Andrew from Chronicle; he was an arse at the end, but you understand how he got there. So hop to it young grasshopper I have faith that you can do eeet!!!
For Arlene, she was simple to the extent of "it's just better not having a heart" indicating she's been hurt in the past bad enough to give herself to darkness. Now that she can't feel and stronger, she can't be vulnerable or crippled by a heart to get hurt again.
Also you used Grand Pulse as a world, well be sure to acknowledge on-going of XIII and XIII-2 and overall tid bits about Grand Pulse....ooor when in doubt...make up a world.
