Power(s): Climber has but two powers. (He may gain more later on.) The first is to come back from the dead. Now before I venture on further, let me say that this power is not usable as of now. Climber has used up this power in the past, so the ability to come back from the dead will be usuable only once more if Climber ever gets his human body back. Now, into the details of reviving; What this all technically means is that Climber is able to die, but continue existing as a wandering soul without a body. However, this power is only usuable once every 4 years, and is only compatible with Climber's original body. So consider this power dead for now. Climber, originally, was a boy named Edgeworth. Edgeworth's soul was transferred into a mannequin that his mother made using Soul Tech. ( The rest of the tale is courtesy to the hsitory section. )
Climber has no main power of offense, so the diagnosis of his current body w ill just be placed here. Climber's soul was transferred into a mannequin using Soul Tech. This mannequin was dressed in a Miner's costume, wtih tough leather coating and firm gear, Climber has a good protection so far. Any other light clothing would probably raise the chance of Climber being cut, burned, or- well, something even more terrible. You see, Climber naturally cannot feel pain, but mutilation is not very delightfull. If one of Climber's arms are cut during battle, Climber will simply place his pick-axe into the mutilated part and secure it with thin, rubber rope. As for burning or freezing, well, Climber is made of cloth, so he is highly flammable. Freezing makes Climber unable to absorb any type of energy, thus resulting in his eventual death. Climber's soul resides in a mannequin's body, which is composed entirely of cloth and a plastic exoskeleton. Considering his composure, Climber has almost no strength at all. Now, however, it is time to look at the positive side of things. Let us review - Climber is composed entirely out of cloth, correct? If that's so, that he sould weight practically nothing at all. Well, to be percise, 5 pounds. This makes Climber's fighting reflexes almost supernatural. Climber can act on impulse and add the weight from his weapon into the inertia of his attacks. As a result, he does alot of rather badass spinning tricks. However, these fighting skills are used by someone else aslo.. (Read into History section.) Climber's greatest field of strength is water. Climber is superhumanly fast, so he could manuever in many ways in the water. As for hope of Climber ever getting back his body, well, that chance is under the probability of 3 percent. To revive again, Climber would need the ultimate source of energy and power, Kingdom Hearts.
Climber, unfortanutley, has yet another useless power. This is the ability is the power to convert any type of energy into his own. This also may seem like a rather useless power, but it's all to help Climber continue to own his body. The most common conversion of energy Climber uses is water. He chose this option because water is the purest option there is available on the menu, with fresh minerals and vitamins, this is the healthiest choice. This type of energy can last Climber for 40 hours. Even small doses of water can last Climber 30 hours. With bread, 25 hours. With tea, 10 hours, green tea being 12 hours. Foods like hotdogs and steak are a mere 5 hours. BigMacs, well, they downgrade Climber's energy compatibility by 3 minutes. However, along the sidelines of food, this can be used quite dangerously. Like for example, if Climber's food is poisoned or has a dangerous amount of fbacteria and germs in it, Climber's energy expectancy can downgrade from a range of 10 seconds to 25 hours. If Climber takes in anything more acidic than this, he would probably die instantly. Besides this, though, Climber can convert other types of energy. The only other types are electricity, heat, and hearts. Hearts are not Climber's most commonly used power source, but they are probably the most usefull. Hearts are worth a weeks supply of energy. Considering energy, when Climber's energy rate reaches zero, Climber will die. However, Climber converts energy naturally, not with a time limit (Ex: Food, electricity), so Climber will merely pass out, go into a 10 hour hibernation, and awaken later with a fresh new start of 1 weeks worth of energy. If Climber does not refill his energy properly on the second time, he will hypothetically "die".
The past two power are considered life aid powers. This one is yet to be used, but the potential still exists. Climber Cyanide's first offensive power is to make his weapon appear in his hands at will. At first sight, this power seems practically useless to any sensible person - However, Climber is not a person; he is a mannequin. Seeing as he virtually has no substential strength in his meele attacks, (besides simply forcing an opponent to flinch, get a bruise the size of a quarter, and shove them away) so he
has to use a weapon to attack. For example, if the opponenent knocks the weapon out of his hands, he can instantly recover. Even with a weapon, though, since the pickaxe is the lightest weapon that Climber can use, he has to spin around a lot and act on impulse to add more impact to his attacks. . Also, another good thing about it is that the weapons don't become blunt edges, or dull during dissapearing and appearing. All weapons will stay sharp or durable. That is the general idea with that power.
Read the history section for this next part, but Climber can be aided in battle by the help of Black Ace's energy. It's a violent type of energy, and can't be converted into Climber's own, so he will tend to get a little more violent than he needs to be. This is called Climber Inverted. It's a speciality only acheivable when Climber is able to control Black Ace's violent power. With this, Climber is almost supernaturally fast
and strong. Also, Black Ace releases black substances that can flow and instantly harden in any given place. When Ace is possesing Climber, this substance is usually used to create armor and a mask for Climber's face with one red, gleaming eye and a large, gleefull grin plastered on the same side. Using this substance, Climber can create armor of his own and also use and shape the black substance to use agaisnt his opponent.
Weapon(s):Climber's main weapon is a pick-axe, which came with his costume, though it was crafted by a psycopath and was designed sharp and a dangerous weapon. This pick-axe is Climber's most commonly used by Climber, but other than the pickaxe, he can handle light metal pipes, knifes, and saws, but anything other than that, and he's going to have a devil of a time trying to even lift it up in front of him. Climber pick-axe is the old fashioned kind, only not just as heavy. This pick-axe weighs around 29 pounds, so Climber has a bit of trouble fighting with it. However, this is the weapon he is most adjusted to. It's base is made of firm wood, and the top is neatly crafted metal with a fine point. Climber fights using strategy, and this weapon never fails him.
Picture(optional):Photo Gallery:
Appearance: Being a Living Cloth Mannequin, Climber has a more pale white type of skin tone on his face - seeing as the rest of his body is covered by grey, dark blue, and black color schemed miner gear. Climber's hair is replaced by a large, dark grey and dark blue miner's cap with 2 lacings at the tips. Seeing as Climber still has his 5 senses, and is able to feel, long sleeved, long pants'd, heavy miner's gear might have been a problem, but the two dark blue pieces of metal have an installed cooling and heating system according to weather. Being a living doll, Climber was sewn into the miners costume, so he has to wear it day and night. His face is actually painted with a faded, dark yellow.His face was painted, so he can animate it freely at will, which comes as an act of humor, impressing many people with his infamous "<.<" expression. If his face get's suverley messed up, though, he may not be able to see or talk. Climber is sewn into what seems like a dark blue, grey, black jacket with metal pads strapped to the ends. A slightly large, silver zipper zips the tip of Climber's jacket, near his neck, followed by a silver lining that crosses his chest vertically and into his torso and dissapears under a black belt with a silver strapping in the middle. Below the belt, the rest of his miner's jacket sags and flops around without support. Below that is What seems to be his pants, colored in dark blue and black with two small creases where the knees are. All the way until the ankles, the color is black, then dissolves into dark blue. From the on, his shoes appear to be dark grey, but when shoned in light, the color comes to dark blue. Climber is relativley skinny, seeing as he is made of cloth and painted leather. However, he is about the size of a regular 15 year old, and as he ages, grows about a few inches taller.
When he travels to other worlds, his appearance sometimes changes.
For every world Climber goes to, he stays in the same costume; but in the worlds Halloween Town, The HAKUNA MATATA (Pride Rock or somethingto do with Lion King), and other worlds, he switches appearance. When Climber goes to Halloween town, His costume is replaced by a long cloak, hood over Climber's face, and the wood of his pick-axe extended to make it look like a scythe. When Climber goes to the HAKUNA MATATA, He just turns into a lion. No, not a tiger with extremley spiky bangs, just a lion. However, a rather small lion, but extremley fast. He holds his pick-axe in his mouth, seeing as it has no other place to go.
Personality: Climber has a relativley peacefully personality, never neglecting or hating anyone very much unless he beleives they are evil, hateful, greedy demons. He is halfly naive, though, so many times he can be swayed into thinking the people are his enemy. Mostly, though, Ace takes over for a breif period of time and provoke the enemy in to thinking that Climber is an enemy. Although he is a very tactical and skilled fighter, he tends to avoid fights. In one scenario, he got shot once in the head for saying "Well, we don't have to fight. We could just...Dance!" When he fights, even, he tends to be a little more kindly if the fight's not a life and death situation. In a dire situation, though, Climber puts the enemy on defensive. Being made of cloth, Climber has a traumatic fear of anything that has fire or high heat in it, from lighters, to forest-fires. He loathes people whom he beleives is evil and runs on injustice. He has a somewhat goody type of ego, and tries constantly to not become enemies with anyone through a mizture of kindess and slight humor. This, usually, is what gets him in trouble though. Seeings as he still holds the ability to digest, and has a mouth, Climber enjoys bread the most because of it's bland, but somehow, original, strong flavor - which is why he's usually accompanied by bread as a sidedish at every meal. Climber also likes dark, large spaces that resemble caves, caverns, or mines. Climber has never thought about a personal relationship wih a girl - besides his one friend Clarice - and he never really thinks it would happen, but what he likes to see is someone that dosen't care about what he is, and a strong, caring individual.
Original World: The Asylum
Current Residing World: Twilight Town
History/Background: Climber was not actually Climber. In fact, the mannequin we know now was actually once a 15 year human named Edgeworth Cyanide. He was a bright young man, never failed in his studies, was the best in athletics, and had a kind heart towards people of all kinds. His parents, Jack Cyanide and Ruby Boreas. As he was growing, though, his life suddenly came to a halt. Just as Climber celebrated his 10th birthday, Claymore Coperations began on their development on the pinnacle of scientific discovery; human geneal bio-weapons. They began on their first expiriments as they began testing on fetuses. When they found one with exactly the correct DNA for research, they began the experiments. They called this project "Black Ace" because of the very strange soot-colored baby. It was a horrible process, ones involving much surgical implants shots, and gore. However, after all this, the work payed off. They're bio weapon developed as the fed it more and more biological chemicals and stimulants until it took the form of a young boy around the age of 3, very black skinned (not brown, just ash colored black) with even darker black eyes. The only characteristic of color that stood out was it's gleaming red pupils that danced around as if observing it's surroundings. When they decided it was safe to let the child out, it turns out he was very similar to Edeworth; gentle and shy it seemed. However, as they continued to develop Black Ace, the government became more and more aware of what could happen if these were mass-produced. The president immediatley shut down the operation after 2 weeks consideration. Black Ace was to be eliminated, and all files containing information on this expiriment was to be deleted. However, Black Ace snapped when he realized he was going to be killed. He felt betrayed by all of the adults who used to care so for him as he snapped and broke out of his container. Disturbing tentacles with metal jaws at the tips gruesomley etched across Ace's back. In just one night, Black Ace wrecked an entire science facility and killed 500 scientists. The rest of them fell into a coma and soon died of sudden heart attacks. But Black Ace wasn't satisfied. He would never be until he murdered every living soul on the face of the earth.
Meanwhile, Edgeworth Cyanide had just recently turned 15. Together, the family went off on his birthday to visit his favorite amusement park, Burger Town, when the car was stopped abruptly by a strange young boy. He had odd loooking tentacles coming out of his back, and all of his skin and eyes were covered in black. He began to wreck havoc on the high way, starting with Edgeworth's family. Ruby Boreas turned the car just in time so that she would be the only one whom suffered damadge. Apparently, Ruby Boreas got crushed in the car crash, Edgeworth Cyanide died from a mysterious stab wound to the chest, and Jack Cyanide survived. Jack mourned over his family and almost gave into depression and anxiety. Edeworth stopped this though. One night, when Jack tried to attempt suicide, Edgeworth popped in through the window. He wasn't real though, just a soul. Edgeworth, apparently, could survive on earth for a limited amount of time as a soul. Edgeworth was releived he could die with his father. However, Jack Cyanide tried one last thing, Mr. Cyanide was a technologist, and his latest and most revolutionizing invetion was Soul Tech. It was still in development, but it was good enough to be put to use. Sacrificing his legs and some of his organs, Jack Cyanide was able to trannsfer Edgeworth's soul into a mannequin that Ruby was designing. During the process, though, Black Ace's spirite attatched to Climbers and was trannsfered into the mannequin also. To this day, Black Ace still rests deepest depths of Climber's soul, ready to lunge out and murder again. It was an old cloth mannequin, though, which was fasioned back when she ran a clothing shop. It was dressed quite firmly, dark blue and light blue color schemed leather gear with a similar colored helmet glued to the head. Ruby named it Climber. At his last moments, Jack Cyanide painted the face on Climber's blank, white face. He looked at his son as the mannequin slowly came to life. Jack Cyanide's heart rate slowed and came to a stop.
Quickly, police were on the scene, and Climber had to play dead for a while when an amusement park business bought Climber. It was an old amusement park, and was soon going outof business. The old man who had ran the park thought Climber looked quite unique, and so he placed him among his collection of Amusement park items and stored them away. Later, the amusement park soon became a hangout for deranged killers and delinquents. One night, they had kidnapped a young girl named Clarice Evans and held her for ransom money. Clarice was locked up in the amusement park storage room, where she met Climber. Together, they spent about 2 nights becoming friends. Soon, they decided that it was time to break out. Climber searched in the storage and brang out a paintball gun, only it was replaced with real bullets by one of the killers. Climber found an old pick-axe, which was fashioned by a psycopath long ago with the name of Jack the Ripper. Climber thought it was quite a silly name, and decided o sue it as a weapon. Together, Climber and Clarice fought their way through the amusement park until they were all in the storage room, ready to be arrested. Climber, however, was bound to the amusement park as his duty. Climber invited Clarice to stay for one more day. They had much fun, riding old amusement park roller coasters and ferris wheels, but it was soon time for Clarice to go. Sadly, Climber sulked around for the night until suddenly, strange mail arrived at the mailbox. It was an invitation to visit the Everafter Asylum. Climber was trapped however, and was forced to become an asylum prisoner. However, it appeared that Climber was held hostage for a tournament that took place in that very asylum. Climber fought his way through many fearsome enemies until finally he reached the final contestant, Jack Cyanide. He was no longer himself, though. Jacck had used a bio-chemical that would help increase Jack's heartrate. However, it did something completley different. The same bi-chemical he injected himself with was the kind that was originally supposed to develop Black Ace. Jack Cyanide grew into a masive Black Substance with two white, empty eyes and a huge blank grin. Climber was on the verge of defeat when suddenly, they appeared. The whole asylum was teeming with Heartless and Nobodies. Jack Cyanide, finally realizing that Climber was his former son, used the last of his strength to send Climber away from the Asylum as Jack Cyanide's heart was devoured by Heartless. Jack was proud of his son, though, to the very end for fighting so hard.
Climber now resides in Twilight town, with no memories of his past life as Edgeworth, his father or mother - only his recent adventures as Climber the mannequin. He's lived in Twilight Town for about 3 months now, pondering on his past events, wondering if there was anything before all of that, if he ever lived another life...
...
..But Black Ace was stirring every now and then
++ And here's a quick overview of a Org. XIII or Dark XII related history (if this was allowed). ++
- Same as last past; Edgeworth becoming 15. - ..When suddenly his town was overcome by heartless. The town was to be evacuated, but Edgeworth faced the heat of the asault. His heart was taken from him, but it was considered by (Org. XIII / Dark XII). They realized that this particular heart held a certain amount of potential. However, it's nobody was useless; just another dusk with no particular meaning. They decided to place his heart into a mannequin. The mannequin showed no signs of life for a month, so they just put him in the common room for comic releif. They named him the Climber because of his odd appearance. Suddenly, after another week or so, the mannequin came to life. This was what (Org. XIII / Dark XII) was waiting for. They placed Climber to the test, constantly pushing him to do this and that when they finally decided that Climber would be used as a secret weapon, used on private, more advanced missions that were not to be trusted to regular members. Up until now, Climber is still serving under their command, wondering what exaclty his purpose was, how he came to be, who he actually was. But the Organization (Or group. Whatever.) didn't tell him anything about his past, and instead told him that they woul turn him into a dusk if he didn't comply with their rules. However, they still have not know truly of the existence of Black Ace...
Role Playing Sample: It had been a long day, and Climber was beat from his job as a delivery boy. It kept the money coming, though, and Climber didn't like to neglect his work. Climber didn't ride a bike around like the regular delivery men, though, becuse he could run just as fast. In fact, Climber took care of delivery jobs taken by trucks and cars also, because he was, indeed, extrodinarily fast. But this work was tiring and was tedious, so Climber had to take some time to drink some water and eat in between deliveries. Climber walked up to the apartment he was currently living in as the sun began to set behind the train tracks of Twilight Town. It was a nice town; many kind people and friends who took a liking to Climber. He fished his key out of his bag and turned the lock to his apartment room. It was great to be back, that wonderfull feeling of knowing that your work is done. It was the best time of day: the end. The sun painted the sky with a brilliant shade of red and orange as it slowly dissolved behind the Train Station's clock tower. Climber walked over and opened his fridge, pulling out a glass of cold water. He took a big gulp. Very refreshing. So very refreshing that Climber almost missed this strange little black being with beady yellow eyes gnawing on his sofa in the corner. Climber looked at it for a moment. Climber thought it looked very cute before it suddenly shook it's head and ate half of the couch in a single bite. Climber rushed over,
"Hey! That's my favorite-" he started to shout- but he didn't, because suddenly the black being leapt up and almost mauled Climber. Gasping for breath, he managed to reach over and grip his pick-axe. With all his strength, he sliced the being in two, making it dissolve into the air as a pink heart slowly rose into the air and vanished. Climber sighed, and finished his water.
"Should've known, Climber thought, placing his empty glass into the sink,
"Those things have been popping up everywhere lately.Climber went back to the couch, mourned over the eaten half and then sealed it with scotch tape, so that no more of the stuffing would fall out. He plopped down on what was left of the sofa and sighed a sigh of sigh-is releif. He wondered if he could live like this forever. It was like a dream...
And then he realized his bedroom was on fire.
Questions/Comments/Suggestions? None that I can think of.
