I SING THIS LULLABY FOR YOU
Name: Leonard Osborne. In his hometown, he’s known as the Rampagin’ Ogre (see personality/history for details.)
Age: 18
Canon or OC: OC. AKA say 'hi' to the hero of the world tree, yes?
Occupation: Student and Hero of the World Tree. Though, he's not exactly aware that he's a hero just yet.
Which game are you from: N/A
Alliance: Neutral for now, but may turn Good as the character progresses through the story.
Weapons: Leonard mostly uses his fists and legs to do most of the fighting, but if he needs to pack more punch he puts on a set of shin guards and knuckle dusters. While he mainly is a fist-fighter, Leonard is prone to using dirty tricks in a combat so he carries all sorts of small weapons that tend to do very nasty things.
Rampaging Ogre set: A set of spiked knuckle dusters and shin guards that Leonard uses in combat. These are made out of light, but durable materials. They are capable of withstanding heavy strikes and provide protection should Leonard need to block with them. He mainly uses this when he’s taking on an armed opponent or a monster.
Poison gas bomb: A small, light weight cylinder-like bomb that is made by Leonard. Once it explodes, Despite its name, the bomb isn’t exactly meant to kill his opponents. It’s mean to give painful stomach aches and migraines that affect the performance in combat. In more serious cases they’ll also have double-vision. He carries around four of these bombs.
Powers: Leonard is a highly skilled fighter who utilizes fists and legs to combat his opponents. Despite his skills, he will do anything to win. Even if it means retorting to underhanded strategies and tricks to take down his opponents such as going for the weak spots, throwing sand in their eyes, throwing poison gas bombs, or even blowing pollens that stuns that are extracted from plants right into their faces. People of course will not like him very much because of his methods, but in an intelligent point of view they are completely practical in combat and it’s proven to be highly effective. He also shows high physical prowess through strength, endurance and speed (hence why is able to punch monsters like punching bags with little trouble).
--Artes--
Air Dash: Well... it's not exactly an attack, but this attack allows Leonard to dash through the air for a good few in any direction he chooses. He can also use this to double jump.
Armor Piercer: A technique specifically developed to break his opponent’s armor or equipments. By controlling his breathing and taking a very calm stance, he channels his mana to his fist. Once his opponent is within the range he delivers a powerful punch, breaking or potentially damaging any armor that his opponent may have that could shield him from the blows. The real damage doesn’t come from the punch, but the shrapnel caused by it since the armor breaks or gets damaged in an explosive force concentrated to his fist, the shards of armor that is directed inward could potentially pierce or even damage the internal organs causing massive bleeding and laceration. It is also highly effective on creatures with exo-skeletons.
Mach Kick: A quick, high speed kick that can potentially break bones. This move is used to stun his opponents for ten seconds which is just long enough to lend in his fatal blows.
Explosive Fang: Leonard smashes his fist down on the ground, sending a crescent shockwave right at his opponent. Once it impacts something tangible, it explodes in a violent force. If it strikes a human being, it will knock his opponent off guard or even send them flying for good couple of feet if they are not prepared. It could also be used to clear the surrounding, like rubble for example.
Rock it!: A powerful three combo punch opened by a charging straight, then a hammer fist to the temple to knock his opponent down and followed up by a powerful jab to the jaw or stomach.
Rocking Fang!: A two strike combo utilizing concepts of Rock it and Explosive Fang attack. To perform this move, Leonard first goes in with a powerful charging straight punch at his opponent and follows it up with by an immense blast of shockwave rising from his feet diagonally into the air.
Drop-to-Hell Revolver: One of the most common strike arte that Leonard uses. He first opens up with a leaping knee attack to his opponent’s chest with his right or left knee. While airborne he spins sideways and delivers a killer axe kick to the head or shoulder. If he truly wants his opponent dead, he’ll deliver the kick to the head.
Ogre Special: A powerful strike arte used by Leonard. He throws series of blinding punches and jabs at his opponents while leaving behind after images, making it relatively difficult to predict where his next punch would go. Leonard specifically targets pressure points of his opponent’s body. This technique is hard to master because one must get gain an understanding of person/animal’s body, but for Leonard who has been fighting for a while this is no problem (plus he's a her of the world tree). If a humanoid he’ll usually go for a full facial and body, if a beast he’ll usually go for the neck and the head. He then finishes it up with a powerful uppercut to launch his opponent into the air. This attack can also be used in midair, minus the uppercut.
Lunar Kick: Anti-air somersaults kick attack utilized by Leonard. This attack is usually used to juggle, or keep his opponents in the air so that they’ll be more vulnerable to his attacks. If he really wants to, he smashes his fist against them to force them back to the ground.
Burying Punch: Leonard delivers a sucker punch and grabs the head of his opponent before smashing it against the nearby object so that their heads would get stuck inside either a wall, ground or anything else that he may find. Totally an impractical move, but fun to use against anyone who's weaker than him for the laughs.
Demon Fury: In a blur, Leonard gets behind his opponent and kicks the back of their neck using spinning back kick. He then grabs the head of his enemy, spins his/her entire body in a full 360 turn and throws them back down to the ground. This is usually used to create neck injuries. This can also be used in midair without the footwork and the kick.
Demon Clashing: This is an air to ground kick attack. He first picks his target and once set he jets towards his opponent who would probably be lying down on the ground. Even if his attack does miss it is followed up by a 6 feet radius shockwave to launch his opponent(s) back into the air.
-- MYSTIC ARTE --
Demon Overlord: When Leonard's rage reaches its maximum level his strength and speed starts to exceed that of a normal human being. By using this to his advantage, Leonard unleashes flurry of blinding punches and kicks at his opponent. Demon Overlord's hits usually range from 6 to 10 depending on how pissed off Leonard is and what kind of opponent he is facing up against. While the strikes have crippled his opponent, Leonard unleashes his second phase of this arte: 'All Guns Blazing'.
All Guns Blazing: Unattained.
Occupation: Warrior
WISH UPON A STAR[/size]
Personality: Leonard isn’t someone exactly who you’d expect from your typical ‘Hero of the World Tree’ and you probably wouldn’t expect him to be a hero either. He’s your crude delinquent who skips school on daily basis just to hang around with his friends. Despite being a delinquent, Leonard isn’t exactly the one who’d start fights, but if he gets into one he enjoys it. He deliberately takes pleasure (not sexually) in inflicting most pain on his enemies as possible, which results in cruel and unusual methods of punishment for his defeated enemies such as making them strip and run through the town naked or in their underwear. To sum it up, he’s ruthless, barbaric, and cares little of his fellow man. Really, he is a nutsty bastard at best who would probably kick a puppy for barking at him. To him, friends are relatively hard to come by. This is one of the many things why he can’t properly make a friend. Commonly, he’ll have underlings who follow him with upmost loyalty because of his ironfisted rule over them, but at the same time their respect towards Leonard for his strength. This also made him arrogant, and rightfully so. He’s the strongest in the town. Hell, even the town’s guardsmen fear for their lives when confronting the Rampagin’ Ogre. His title was given when he started his delinquent life.
Without a doubt, Leonard is a strong person in both physically and mentally, but… he’s not the sharpest knife out of the drawer. In short, he can be pretty dense at times. While he’s prone to making good, rational decisions at times at a basic level, he usually just goes with his gut feeling. They usually tend to be rash decisions. Without the proper guidance, it’s most likely that he’ll start blaming others; however, if he is told of a better decision than the one he had made he would probably go into shock thinking: ‘Why didn’t I think of that sooner?’ before going with the decision that his one of his friends or comrades may have made. Also, he hates having responsibilities being shoved at his face, and as you may expect he can be pretty self-centered. Despite these qualities he also has a nicer side to him, which obviously is kind of hard to believe for many people. Those that have been around him for a long time would eventually see his nicer side, though it really takes a while.
One thing to note is that he’s ferociously loyal and caring towards his friends though it usually comes off as a very subtle manner. He will never betray them, hurt them (or at least… try not to), and will stick out a limb to save them. Leonard will not hesitate to risk his life to save someone he holds dear. Oh, and if you hurt them, he'll kill you. Literally. Due to his violent personality, Leonard will beat the person who hurt his friends and comrades to a point that their face is nothing more than an unrecognizable bloody pulp. Then again, that is if they are able to stay in the world long enough after taking punches from his knuckle dusters to the face. As for people that don’t know him? Yeah, he has that ‘devil may care’ type of attitude towards them usually saying: ‘What about ‘em?’. Even if he wants to save them, he’ll save them IF he has the time to do so. Unlike past heroes of the world tree, he doesn’t have that savior complex. If he wants to save a stranger, he’ll do it only if it benefits him such as a payment or for a piece of information that he needs, but he won’t put that extra effort as much as he puts to his friends.
History:(At least two to three paragraphs)
Likes:
+ Brawling
+ Using underhanded tricks to win and seeing his opponent make a fuss or cry about it.
+ Teasing his opponent before and during the fight.
+ His friends. To someone like him, they are hard to come by.
+ Good food
+ Social activities
+ Collecting shin guards and knuckle dusters (or commonly known as: 'brass knuckles').
Dislikes:
- Things suddenly shoved in his face in both physical and mental way.
- People picking on his friends.
- Monsters. Duh.
- A man who don’t keep their promises like a man.
- Horrible food/cooking
- Books
- Lecture
- School
- Studying
- People who throw friends/comrades out the window as if they are mere objects.
- You most likely
- Boredom
- Acting friendly. If you see him acting friendly, you'll probably faint. He has the more grotesque/evil smile you've ever seen in your entire life.
Fears:
- Though Leonard isn’t afraid of making mistakes, he’s afraid that he could f**k things up majorly to a point that he can’t fix them.
- Well unlike many people, Leonard isn’t afraid of death. He believes death is something natural and should be accepted as it comes. Only thing that he’s afraid about it is the fact that he’ll die of old age and think that he lived his entire life in vain.
- World fear of them all, Leonard is afraid of losing. He hates the feeling and he wants to never lose. To lose is to become a loser, and to become a loser is to become weak. That’s what it is to him at least. Leonard will do ANYTHING to win. Even if he must resort to dirty tricks to win the fight.
- He also hates the feeling that he’s weak, because he won’t be able to protect anyone that he holds close to him.
- Oh, and one more thing. He’s afraid that his fears would become exposed in the open in front of everyone.
