 THE HUMAN/FULLBRINGER APPLICATION Name: Avon de Grey Age: 26 Sex: Male Personality: ESTJ-A [The Executive] A representative of tradition and order, Avon utilizes his understanding of what is right, wrong and socially acceptable to bring people together... to an extent. Honesty, dedication and dignity are very important traits and are valued highly, and Avon respects people who stand up for what they believe in regardless of what happens. Avon leads by example, demonstrating dedication and purposeful honesty, and an utter rejection of laziness and cheating, especially in work. • AWARENESS - Avon is extremely aware of his surroundings and lives in a world of clear, verifiable facts. Even against heavy resistance, he will stick of his principles and push an unclouded vision of what is and is not acceptable; his opinions are not just empty talk, as he is more than willing to dive into the most challenging projects, improving actions plans and sorting details along the way, making even the most complicated tasks seem extremely easy and approachable. He doesn't work alone, either, expecting his reliability and ethic to be reciprocated, and will not hesitate to show his wrath on subordinates who jeopardize his plans with incompetence or laziness. • DEDICATED - Avon sees things to completion, bordering on an ethical obligation. Tasks are not simply abandoned due to becoming too difficult or boring, and as long as a task remains the right thing to do, Avon will make sure it is done. He is very strong-willed, making this dedication possible, and is patient enough to make sure that things get done, even if it's not in a timely manner due to things beyond his realm of control. • CALM & COLLECTED - Whether it's because things are going according to plan, or because he knows he can adapt to any situation including whatever is currently going on, Avon always keeps his calm. While it's not correct to say that nothing can take him by surprise, that brief flash will always fade and be reabsorbed into his extremely calm demeanor, with a smile on his face as he knows he can handle anything going on. Avon never loses his cool and never finds himself in a fit of rage, because he chose to focus himself on staying calm and trained his brain to readjust to any situation extremely quickly. • INSPIRING - Aside from his aura of charisma, Avon is an extremely inspiring person, pushing people to and past their limits quite often. Any means necessary to allow someone to reach the potential that he is aware they have, up to and including the risk of death, Avon will not stop until they are where he knows they can be, and this causes people to look up to him. Due to his nature of knowing when to back out of a fight, his troops will fight to their last breath at most times, knowing he will call them off if the fight can't be won, and finding a blazing will to keep fighting at all times. • PRIDEFUL - Avon is extremely proud not only of his own abilities and status, but also of his accomplishments and the respect he's given. Perhaps his biggest weakness, Avon's hubris could be his downfall, as he has a need to foster respect and maintain his dignity, getting so caught up in the expectations of others that he can fail to address his own needs. • MERCILESS - While he is loyal to his subordinates, there are things Avon cannot forgive. Knowing when you're beaten and retreating from a fight is acceptable, but begging for mercy is not; similarly, when somebody does something against his ethical code (such as begging for mercy), Avon will stop at nothing to make sure that person feels his true wrath. While this ethical code is fairly solid, there can be changes made to it, but there are no exceptions, regardless of personal status and respect to and from Avon. LIKES/COMFORTS • RESPECT - The most important thing to Avon as a person is the respect he's earned. His regal demeanor carries with it a dire need to be respected by others, and a lack of this respect is nearly unforgiveable. While he can understand someone not respecting him immediately, someone losing respect for him will not be tolerated to any extent, and Avon will go to great lengths to make sure that he is respected... or feared into it. • POWER - Raw power is another important thing to him. Avon will attempt to help bring out the potential a person has so they can realize how much power they are truly capable of, but he will grant his own respect to people who prove themselves to be at a certain level of power without his assistance. Avon's respect is not easily earned because of his high standards, but people who work on increasing their power constantly can get it. • LOYALTY - Avon is fiercely loyal to those who have garnered his respect, and admires when his own Organization is as loyal to him. Not caring about their own safety or goals, and simply trusting in what he has planned or his own abilities to lead them to battle and safety at the same time are what matters to him, because while he can respect power on its own just for being power, he respects people trusting in him more than it. • BRAVERY - Similarly to loyalty, Avon has a strong admiration for people who are brave enough to head into dangerous territory to complete the things he needs them to do, even at the cost of their own life. While Avon will make an attempt to save them should things go awry, they should not expect him to save them when they accept the mission, and their bravery in doing so is something he can admire. DISLIKES/FEARS • COWARDICE - The number one way to piss of Avon is to show cowardice. Begging for mercy, be it on yourself or someone else, will always have the adverse effect of invoking his ire, leaving him to take out the newly found wrath on the person begging for mercy, and then anyone else in the nearby area. • ENVY - People should be proud of what they have and what they can do, not envious of what someone else has. If someone were to voice that they were disappointed with what they had and wanted what someone else had for the sole purpose of them not having it, it would invoke Avon's wrath even more than cowardice would. • SLOTH - Similarly, Avon dislikes it when people are lazy and not occupying their time with something that matters. Even if a person is enjoying nature, they're okay; it's when they're sitting around doing nothing and wasting time that Avon gets irritated at them. People should always be trying to get themselves more powerful or making relationships they can utilize at a later time when they need something, and Avon has no respect for people who waste large amounts of time. • AVARICE - While it's true that Avon believes people should be utilizing their time in some manner or another, he also has no respect for people who constantly just want more. When someone attains a new level of power, they should be happy with it for at least a little while, instead of immediately trying to push themselves further. A person's avarice must be held in, or else they can be consumed by it and Avon dislikes that. • FEAR - Ultimately though, the thing Avon hates the most is fear itself. The rest of the things that Avon dislikes or hates can be summarized by this one word: fear. Fear for their life, fear of losing what they have... showing this fear is an incredibly high sign of weakness that Avon has zero tolerance for, and is another way to invoke his wrath fairly easily. • WEAKNESS - All of that being said, Avon fears his own weakness; while he knows the limitations on his power, and strives to increase them, he cannot account for everything at the same time, and he is only so good at hiding his true emotions because of his fear of his own weakness. Showing it, feeling it... these things infuriate Avon, and the knowledge that he's not as strong as he thinks can drive him to new heights. CHARACTER APPEARANCE Height: 5'10" Weight: 172lbs Physical Traits: Being the only unclothed portion of his body, the first thing a person would likely notice about Avon is his sun-kissed skin, icy blue eyes, and snow white hair. With a face that is clear of any blemishes, markings or scars, being perfectly smooth, with attached earlobes that each have a small sapphire stud in them, he seems nicer than he actually is. His piercing blue eyes reveal his reiatsu's true nature, flowing with his emotions and revealing them to an extent, to the people who know how to read them. Avon's snow-white hair is semi-short, reaching the back of his neck, and though he often makes an attempt to keep his hair slicked back and smooth, circumstances can easily lead to it being messy and downward, covering his forehead and looking sloppy, though he will try to fix it as soon as he can, or realizes it's out of place. Although hidden behind several layers of clothing, Avon's upper body is very well-toned, is free of any blemishes, markings or scars, except for one 6in scar over his heart. Strength isn't where Avon shines, meaning his muscles can't do extreme things like other people, but they are incredibly toned and well-defined, showing their full size without even flexing. Avon wears a black turtleneck long-sleeve shirt against his body, with an ornate black coat over it. The coat has several markings on it, with a subtle floral pattern on the the entire outside of it, and several blue flame-like markings on the bottom left front of it. The coat is longer in the back than it is in the front, tailing evenly on the left and right of his body, with a dark silky blue interior, and a pocket on the inside left breast which Avon keeps a cell phone inside of, to communicate with others whom he respects. Additionally, the left arm of his coat has a blue wrap around the bicep with his own name in Kanji sewn into it. Compared to the rest of his body, Avon's legs are riddled with scars and knicks from former fights, as they are the first part to get cut when he fights. These scars are beneath a layer of denim jeans, held up at his waist with a plain black leather belt and silver belt buckle. Tied around this belt is a small gold chain which has a pocket watch on the other side, one which generally sits in Avon's left front pocket so he can reach it if he needs to. His feet are covered in thin black socks, which are underneath a pair of black loafers. These loafers are tight enough that Avon doesn't have to worry about them falling off in combat, but he can kick them off or slide them on when he needs to do either. Avon de Grey carries himself in a very regal manner, emitting an aura of respect at all times around him; one that isn't related to his reiatsu. He holds his sword in his left hand with the cutting edge facing upwards towards his palm, and only unsheathes it when he actually needs to. While his hands are covered in thin gloves, the color of these gloves changes based on what he's doing for that day, ranging from white for nothing to black for combat. If you knew nothing about him when you first looked upon him, you would see that the way he carries himself is not just for show, but also in the way he speaks. Though his words may not have the deeper meaning of royalty, his tone of voice is rather soft and welcoming, but at the same time both stern and dangerous. While Avon doesn't mind blood on his clothing, he will remove blood from any revealed skin he has (especially his face), and will remove it from his sword as well. FIGHTING STYLE General Fighting Style: Generally speaking, Avon fights by standing still. His abilities do the talking for him, though that certainly doesn't stop him from talking while doing it, while he tends to keep his hands in his pockets. Since he has abilities which negate damage to him and allow him to fight without moving much at all, Avon is physically weak. His abilities are primarily defensive in nature, while they do enable him to be aggressive in turn, but he almost never holds back in a fight, failing to see the purpose in letting others have a chance to accurately respond. Avon is skilled with his Energy Manipulation, and is also searching for new ways to surprise his enemies when using it. Strengths: Reiryoku, Reiatsu, Agility, Intelligence Weaknesses: Strength, Endurance, Durability PRIMARY STAGE Ability Name: Illumination [Passive] Any spiritual or living being hit by Avon's abilities has a lingering light on them. This light can only be seen by Avon, and if he hits them with a melee attack, they take a Cero point-blank centered on their location. Ability Name: Ranged Attack [Passive] Avon can fire off a fraction of a bala of compressed light from his hand. He can fire this off 5 times per post, travels at bala speeds up to 10m, but inflicts damage equal to a point-blank melee attack upon landing, as well as activating [Illumination] upon that target. This can also be launched by swinging his Katana, following the arc of his swing; these attacks will only inflict blunt force, though, and will not cut. Ability Name: Light Bending [Passive] Due to Avon bending light to form his attacks and not simply generating them out of thin air, Avon's abilities only drain half of the energy that they would from someone else. Avon can fire off two abilities for every one that someone else would; if he fired off two ceros from [Esoteric Light Manipulation], it would drain the same energy as someone else firing off one cero. Ability Name: Esoteric Light [Passive] Avon can manipulate the esoteric side of light with special properties and a mystical nature to it. This ability is constantly active and gives Avon High-Speed Regeneration while in contact with any form of light. Avon can also physically touch someone to grant them his High-Speed Regeneration as long as they are in physical contact with him. Avon's Regeneration takes three posts to regenerate a lost limb, two posts to heal major internal damage, one post to heal deep cuts and burns, and minor scratches and knicks are healed almost instantly. Avon's own abilities do not trigger [Esoteric Light], the Light Source must be external and unrelated to him. Ability Name: Esoteric Light Manipulation Avon can manipulate the esoteric side of light with special properties and a mystical nature to it. This ability allows Avon to fire off Esoteric Light, and allows him to release attacks of varying strength from his hands. His limit is Cero Oscuras, and any attack released has a relevant cooldown, preventing attacks of that strength from being used again until the cooldown is up.
Cero: 3 per Post Gran Rey Cero: 4 Post Cooldown Cero Oscuras: 5 Post Cooldown Ability Name: Salvation Avon can fire off a bala of pure esoteric light that has homing on whoever he wants it to hit. When this ability makes contact with someone, it grants them Avon's High-Speed Regeneration from [Esoteric Light] for 1 post. Avon can fire this off once per post, but cannot control it once it's been fired; ie, someone can intercept it. Ability Name: Binding Light Avon releases a sphise of light which binds and blinds the first two spiritual or living beings hit. This travels at bala speed up to 5m away from him, and deals cero damage to both targets hit. This can be used every othis post, and targets hit are affected for one post. Ability Name: Orb of Deception Avon fires off a focused orb of light, traveling at Bala speed, inflicting Bala damage to everything hit, and traveling for 10m. Upon reaching its' destination, the Orb begins traveling back to Avon, at Bala speed, but this time dealing Cero damage to everything hit. This has a 2 post cooldown, and travels to and from Avon in a single post. Ability Name: Lucent Singularity Avon fires an anomaly of twisted light to an area within 20m of him; the anomaly covers an area 5ft in radius, slows all movement speed by 25% (including Avon's own), and can last up to 3 posts. At any point during its' life, Avon can detonate it by snapping his fingers, dealing Hado85 damage within the radius instantly. Avon is immune to this explosion. This has a 4 post cooldown beginning after it's blown up, and cannot blow up in the same post it was launched. Ability Name: Final Spark Avon charges for one post, and then releases a large focused laser; this deals damage akin to Hado95 to everything hit, travels in a perfectly straight line up to 50m from his current position, is the same size as Avon himself (5'10" in diameter), and if anything hit has the Illumination debuff, Final Spark ignites it dealing the focused Cero damage in addition to Hado95. While charging, Avon cannot use any of his abilities, but may move freely. This has a 6 post cooldown. Ability Name: Ace of Mitigation [Passive] Avon is coated in a thin barrier of Reiatsu, which passively blocks any attack up to a Cero level. After this ability has blocked an attack, it must recharge for the rest of that post, and will be active next post. Avon can focus on it to strengthen the barrier, increasing it to a Gran Rey Cero level, but it gains a 3 post cooldown instead. Avon cannot move while focusing on this barrier. Ability Name: Time Dillation Avon can release a burst of energy which causes everything, including himself, within 100m of him to instantly stop moving at all. This lasts for approximately 10 seconds, after which everything will return to normal - this must happen in the same post Avon uses this skill. Avon himself cannot physically move or use Energy Manipulation while this skill is active, but his brain can continue to think. This ends up being a way to Avon to react to anything, even that which would catch him off-guard, but he cannot use this to set up ambushes in advance. This can be used every post, but is as straining on his reiatsu as a Forbidden Kidou. BOOSTS Avon has a 4x Boost to his Reiatsu, Reiryoku, Agility, and Intelligence. EQUIPMENT Equipment Name: [Yamato] Yamato looks very similar to a standard Katana, with a polished blade that reflects light, a silver handle, and a solid tsuba. The handle is wrapped in cloth in a very standard diamond-like pattern, and the very bottom has the word 'Grey' carved into it in Kanji. The sheath of the blade is pure black, with a single marking towards the top in the shape of a gold dragon. This weapon is as durable as a Zanpakutou. BACK-DROP When a person hears the name 'Smith', there are usually a few things that go through their mind; however, most of them are dependent on other factors. If you hear the name 'John' or 'Jane' before 'Smith', you might assume that the person in question is, for whatever reason, lying about their name. John Smith combines the two most common names in the English Language; specifically, though, in the United States of America. You may also think, when hearing 'Smith', that a person is unoriginal. They're just a Smith, who cares about them. Something to that extent, anyway. John Smith, unfortunately, was subject to this ridicule. No one actually has the name John Smith; no one actually came from nothing to build a monopoly company, right? No, not quite. John actually did; his father, Avon's grandfather if you're following along, was a farmer. Just a regular, run of the mill (get it?) farmer. John wanted more than that, though. At the age of 17 he ran away from home a year before he should have, and went to Los Angeles. It was there that he met Jane, and the two of them instantly connected. Attending free seminars to figure out what the shit fire he was doing, John spent two years preparing his business model. When he went to the Business Assistance Facility in Los Angeles, he was more prepared than most other people they'd seen. His plans were well thought-out, he was prepared for things other people wouldn't even consider possibilities, and he had numerous fall-backs in case things went wrong. Regardless of how they looked at it, the Business Assistance Facility found no way they wouldn't at least make their money back, and obviously they were expecting much more than just making their money back. They invested a grand total of 100,000 dollars into John's new business, which at the time was basically a fancy version of picking things up from farms and bringing them to a Farmer's Market in Los Angeles, where they would get sold for profit. Obviously this is being simplified, but John's business plan can't be revealed, for posterity's sake. Anyway, three years down the road John had increased his original $100,000 to a grand total of $4,982,619. He paid off the original investors with $500,000 each, bringing him down to around 2 million left. With this, he continued to expand his business, which included anything he could get his hands on. He bought out other companies, he played the stock market, he married Jane... by the time John was 30 years old, his net worth was almost 1 billion dollars. Avon was born that same year. His life was pompous, pandered, and he never had to do anything. If he wanted something, it was his. If he didn't want something, it went away. Avon was treated like royalty by the staff of Smith Manor, because he essentially was. His father taught him to be smart, loyal, and to carry himself like the royalty he essentially was. Nothing would ever stand in Avon's way, even his mother's death. The police reports were crystal clear; primarily because John owned half the city, they weren't going to slack on anything that could get them fired. At 10:57pm on a Tuesday, the rain masked the sounds of a window shattering. As the five men entered the house, six maids were stabbed twice each, and Jane was stabbed ten times. Apparently it was some sort of grudge, because nothing was taken from the house, John was unharmed, and Avon was unharmed. It was meant as a message to John to back off. John, however, wasn't like that. Avon wasn't either. They doubled down and expanded further; now basically owning Los Angeles, they agreed it was time to expand past the city. By the time Avon was 12 years old, his father and him were each worth over 20 billion dollars. It might seem weird to you, that Avon would be worth as much as his father, but with Jane dead all of her shares went to him; Avon and John each owned 50% of the company. There was no point in selling stock, the two of them were geniuses when it came to business. Also at 12 years old, Avon had a heart attack; his heart couldn't handle the stress, or something like that, and he needed a transplant. Due to their net worth, John simply bought a heart from someone on the black market and it was transplanted into Avon overnight. The scar would grow with him, and he always kept it as a reminder of his mortality. Avon began to expand privately, too. He started a small business, at the age of 15, through shell companies that essentially wrote school reports in a manner that was unable to be traced back to anyone else. College kids ate this shit up, and within a year he'd made over $600,000 on his own. John was extremely proud of him. Avon had gotten tired of writing the reports himself, so he started to delve into research and development, being the genius that he was, and wrote software to do it for him. At the age of 20, Avon was worth more than his father was; John was worth about 35 billion, but Avon was worth 50 billion. They started to go their separate ways, but Avon still owned half of John's company, and Avon owned all of his own companies, as many as there were. His biggest achievement was a company called STAR_ which developed facebook advertisements, and jumping on that bandwagon as soon as the market hit meant STAR_ was the biggest company in that market; a monopoly all its' own. Avon was 22 when John died of a heart attack. The man was 52, which was young, but it wasn't unheard of; police reports and the medical staff at two separate hospitals both confirmed that it was definitely a heart attack which had killed John. Since Avon now owned 100% of his father's company, his grand net worth was 97 billion dollars. He didn't want to run his father's company though, so he sold off 49% of the shares; his net worth remained unchanged, but he hired a board of directors to run the company for him, with very clear knowledge that he could drop it at any time and fire them if they went even $1 below what they should have. Avon's 23rd birthday made things very weird for him. He discovered that he had some powers over Energy, and as humans all over the world had begun popping up with powers he assumed it was natural. He became a bit of a recluse for the next year and a half, mastering his power and everything that came with it. It was in this time that he discovered his real name was Avon de Grey, a direct descendent from a powerful family throughout history, rivaled only by the Lisola Family. Seeing as how none of them were walking around where he could find them, he put them out of his mind. At 24, Avon de Grey was the richest person in the history of the world: his net worth was $320 Billion, well above what anyone else had ever expected him to be even remotely near. He'd mastered his powers, but wanted more: he found a girl with similar ones, but who almost defeated him in combat. He kidnapped her and tortured her for seven months while he extracted her powers and gave them to himself. He destroyed the technology that had done this once, to insure it would never happen again. Ashley Vega was dead, and Avon de Grey was the richest, and arguably one of the most powerful, Humans to ever walk the Earth. |
