Subject: Khrom Ignis (Junction) - Demon Manipulator Sat Aug 05, 2017 11:46 pm
Khrom “Khorossu” Ignis I’m just an ordinary boy.
The Biography
Birth Name: Khrom Ignis Aliases: Khorossu Gender: Male Age: 24 Birth Day: June 15th Species/Race Name: Homo Aero Original Homeworld Name: Altea Arcana:Death. Place of Residence: Middle war (Core) – Civilian District Vessel: A dragon tattoo that begins on the back of his left shoulder and goes down to his left arm, wrapping itself around it. Academy Semester: (N/A Class: N/A Part/Full Time Job: Teacher
Appearance: Khrom is what you would describe as an average guy, at least for his world and country standards. Lean and of average stature, being 170cm and weighing 60kg, he has all the basic medium beauty standards on lockdown; Black hair, hazel eyes (going to more of a brown/yellowish tone than green),dark skin (although people would consider him a light-skinned black than a “real” dark skin person) and a bright smile complete his more common features. His hair is wavy to curly, often in locks that go a bit down his neck and are often painted at the longer tips at the back ( “to differentiate himself from the others” he would say) framing a face that has the calm vibe with his straight brows, slightly slanted eyes above them. His nose is what really stands out on the face being long and pointed but still harmonious with the rest followed closely by his mouth, full and plump like his lineage before him had. His body is on the slim side, not showing and apparent excess of fat especially on his arms and torso but being moderately fit and not all skinny. He has a great pair of legs however, that coupled with his back side are what gather the most attention even if his feet is what is most out of the norm (being a size 9).
Spoiler:
Personality: Khrom is easygoing and amicable, but tends to prefer solitude over big crowds. He does well in speeches and talking in to group of people but you will not find him in them very often doing this aside from his work. The strange combination of an eloquent person with a shy demeanor, he is often seen going from work to home to his other appointments at best, getting to them late or not even going sometimes. He is very talkative when given the chance to but will generally internally judge a person before saying too much, which often results into him listening more than talking on most of his conversations. When near friends but in the presence of someone he doesn’t know yet, he’ll be more quiet and observant, just giving his inputs when necessary because he doesn’t feel comfortable being himself around people he truly does not know while on a group of known people he’ll talk and joke around almost at any given time showing his true colors with more ease. A very respectful and mindful person, he will keep anything offensive in his mind before saying being a rather sensible one himself even if not showing that. He prefers to pass an image of a serious, sarcastic and blunt person before gradually warming up and showing his more docile side. He is very protective of those he likes whoever and one should be minful of doing any bad things to them because he will surely cut them down if necessary, not with force but with all the other tolls available as he is a very vengeful person.
The Potential
Strengths:
—Strength Name: Swimming Expertise —Description: Since he was young he was enrolled into swimming classes because of his frail health. Since then he continued on with the classes until this day and grew up to like the sport. He devoted himself into learning it getting skilled into all strokes, competitive practices and its rules turning into a good to great swimmer but one that never took the opportunity to compete out of pure lack of interest into going head to head with other people and losing. (Passive boost to Luck – 10%)
—Strength Name: The Nerd —Description: You know that kid that always got good grades at school, that played video games for fun and didn’t like to do much sports because he was just not cut for it even if he tried? That’s Khrom. He is one of the few people that learns by hearing and seeing how things are done and can get things down pretty fast, especially if they are related to different languages, teaching or technology in general.
—Strength Name: Owl Parent —Description:As a teacher for younger kids Khrom developed this motherly overprotective instinct not only over his kids but to his friends as well, becoming the go to for advice, problem solving and badmouthing of your enemies. He is very caring and dedicated to those he consider close, going so far as to put his life on the line for them.
—Strength Name: Good Liar —Description: After rough teenager years under a strict family with visions that would disapprove anything out of the norm Ignis had grown used to lying and had practiced for so many times he is now very proficient in it to the point he himself avoids doing so.
—Strength Name: Adaptable —Description: Living a life of a middle class person in a third world country in his home world made Khrom…crafty, and street smart, to say the least. He can be rather prepared for a myriad of situations and is quick to adapt to any change of plans, feeling the flow of the things before jumping right into it, getting a better understanding of things as they are happening, usually. ----- —Racial Strength Name: Aero Lineage —Description: All humans born in Altea have a different DNA configuration and are gifted with a gene that adapts them better to the environmental O², being it on a grand or lesser scale. Their bodies are adapted to absorb the air necessary to breathe from all sources making their noses an evolutionary trait that was left behind for a more “cosmetic” perspective than a necessary one. What that means is that all Homo Aeros can adapt themselves to breathe in almost all environments that have air on them including underwater, high windy areas or areas with little income of air, making it physically impossible to suffocate an altean human. (Strong against Garu based attacks)
Weaknesses:
—Weakness Name: Frail Health —Description: Since his birth Ignis had a series of health complications and had to stay much of his early days on hospitals to take care of his frail immune system. This led to different treatments for different issues and some near death experiences but he passed through all before he was old enough to remember how the hospital smelled like. Since then he has improved tremendously but still limits himself on some physical activities and anything involving physical force and heavy objects to preserve his health at optimal levels.
—Weakness Name: Fighting Ineptitude —Description:As part of his early youth he was conditioned to have a better body resistance by different physical activities but any combat related or even things that could be used remotely as that were not his coup of tea (to say it lightly as he fail hard at all of that). Because of that he has never tried to do any kind of fighting activity since. (Dexterity reduced by 10%)
—Weakness Name: Common folk —Description: Living in a society that didn’t praise people for their individuality or even care about his lower masses had impacted Khrom’s mindset, letting him to believe deep down that he is nothing more than a pawn used for something he has no control of or will have no benefit over it. As such, he always has that feeling on the back of his head that he is just one more grain of sand in a beach and that his existence will not have any influence in the grand scheme of things, being wherever he may be.
—Weakness Name: Vengeful —Description: Being a very good-hearted person, it is a surprise to see how the man acts when pushed over the edge. He would prefer to keep things amicable and friendly when talking to the majority of people he knows, if someone simply doesn’t seem truthful or repeatedly tries to push his boundaries he will begin by being very blunt about touchy subjects as means of lashing out to provocation. After that he will meticulously study the person’s behavior and likes/dislikes to avenge himself even on the simplest things even if that means he would regret that later.
—Weakness Name: Innocent Heart —Description: Khrom lives in the adult world and plays his part on it. He works, he has his own home, pays his bills in time, cooks and does his own laundry and dishes, keeping his responsibilities in check. But even if his exterior seems already dented because adulthood had an impact on him, his heart is still pure and believes that all people are inherently good even if they are bad, putting his trust into people he shouldn’t and getting him into troubles he didn’t have to be into, getting himself into some pretty bad situations at times.
-----
—Racial Weakness Name: Aero Deficiency —Description: Alteans are very sensible to anything connected to air, and its no surprise that this means that even pollen ca be a problem sometimes Anything that is transmitted by air or the object they are extracting air from can make them sick, like pollen from flowers, polluted waters or even substances on the soil. It seems to lock down all respiratory systems to draining it, which is very dangerous to any of them. (Weak against Ailment based attacks)
Soul Bound Weapon:
Weapon Name: Katanostick Weapon Description: Looks like a traditional katana sword sporting a long, slightly curved steel blade measuring at about 65 cm of length. Its handle is made of brown leather and wood with gold ornaments on the tip and the side that meets the blade. The funny part is it does not possess the ability to cut anything and it is heavier than it looks(and even if it did, its owner wouldn’t know how to cut with it) making for a good blunt weapon.

Spoiler:
Weapon Attack Type: Strike Weapon Element: N/A
Side-Arm Weapon:
Side-Arm Name: Lighting Scabbard Side-Arm Description: A purple scabbard with no embellishments aside from gold trims on both edges, being the same size as the blade it accompanies (65cm). When used, generates an aim reticule in black so its owner can choose the enemy he wants and after being pressed on the gold part closest to its opening fires a dark purple light in a quick burst. Side-Arm Image:
Spoiler:
Side-Arm Attack Type: Gun Side-Arm Style: Sniper Rifle - Aimed Shot - Accuracy and crit chance is increased by 20%, bullets also pierce through an enemy and ignore 10% of their PEnd. Takes a turn to charge/aim before able to fire. Consumes only one type of ammo per use. Can shoot only one enemy at a time.)
The Background
History: The Pyrian solar system consists of eleven planets that orbit around a yellow sun being three of them optimal for survival of intelligent species. The triad of planets is known for rather humanoid, intelligent beings that reside in them and live in peace for the better development of all involved and for their peculiar connection to the environment they reside in. Ashur is the first of the three being the home planet to the most savage oriented of the three races given the connection they have with fire and lava, being excellent fighters and leaders, preferring to lead a more tribal and community oriented lifestyle. Eodra, on the other hand, is populated by pacific beings connected to the earth, its healing and ever changing precepts being the leading factor for the planet. They seem to live a more secluded life that is based on traditions, innovation and agriculture being the peacemakers and overall centered ones of the three. Altea, the middle one, is home to the humanoids blessed by air that pride themselves in crafting and intelligence. Their society uncannily resembles Earth and its habitants, with big metropolis and bustling diversity of flavors and people with the main difference being the fact that alteans can use and absorb air to their advantage for their day to day lives. Geographically speaking the worlds grow in their disparities as Altea is much more extreme with the abundance of water and much higher and scattered terrains that forced its inhabitants to evolve the way they did. Khrom is one of the new age of alteans, born into a society that was transitioning between the discovery of the Aeronet and the possibility of other lifeforms in very, very far away galaxies from a strictly religious and purist mindset and to top it over, on what is considered as a third world country in his world. As such, he was created as a firm believer on the traditional precepts of his race gods but he began to understand he was not as pertaining to those beliefs from a young age. He preferred to face these problems alone than relay them to his parents as they were really radical in their life dogmas and would not accept a son that didn’t fit into them. He did live into a stable household and faked until he could spread his wings to try and fly to greater heights, slowly but surely. It wasn’t until he got his own independence that he began to show his true colors, using the Aeronet to connect with others with similar interests and search for facts that proved not only how the world views he grew upon were partially wrong but showed him a different side to the ever so common “the triad of planets is the way of gods” thing. His frustrations with family affairs and independence were the fire for his studies were he propelled himself into teaching young minds into the new order of things with great pleasure and a good side of young disposition. His past did come at a price however, and it was mediocrity or the sensation that he wasn’t anything special, nothing more than part of the masses that needed currency to survive and couldn’t let themselves rest as much as they should because they were not at the top countries of that world’s society (which meant that the same worker would receive three times lower than his “first world” counterpart). This did get his heart into a conflict but he had to press on as he wouldn’t even be able to survive alone if he didn’t. And in one of those days were he was late for work his whole apartment complex was swallowed by Junction and he was in a total different reality, feeling stressed not because he was late for work for once. Some time has passed since then and one could say he fitted well into the new society he was brought in as life does not stop. But deep down his thoughts about being just a marionette in a bigger scheme still plays into the back into his mind and that is something he will soon discover if it is true or not…

For your Racial strength, the ability to breath in multiple different ways is fine, however the ability to fly at the end seems rather random and out of place. Plus having both of these abilities seems to much, please choose one or the other and explain the flight better if you choose that over the breathing ability.
Furthermore, the racial strength gives you a resistance to Garu, if this is the case you cannot simply take a weakness to just poison to balance this. You'd have to take a weakness to ailments as a whole just like with normal persona strength/weaknesses.
Finally for the strength giving you a luck boost. Luck is seen to us as a very strong stat and so can only be boosted by 10% for a strength. Feel free to lower the relevant weakness to a 10% debuff as well.
