Powers

Enhanced reflexes: Zev has exceptionally well developed reflexes and can usually react to any kind of attack, up to the point of regularly dodging bullets. This ability has one major downside however, as it only work when he is able to focus on one enemy, or when engaged in an even fight (Essentially making it a one-on-one if there are no surprises). Multiple targets will quickly prove too much for him to deal with unless he has allies of his own, but he is hard to overtake in a one-on-one battle. Since he doesn’t back down, ever, this regularly works against him.

Enhanced Endurance: His body is in peak condition and while his strength is not superhuman he knows how to take a hit. A normal human would go down withering in pain with a gunshot wound or two, but he will simply keep on going until his body will not move anymore. This is partially his survival instinct that urges him to go on. The closer to death he comes the more animalistic/instinctive he becomes.

Enhanced Stamina: Zev can keep on going and going. Whether running, swimming, fighting, playing a game or even eating. He does have a limit however and when he reaches it its over, as in he won’t be doing anything else for weeks. The fact that he is easily persuaded or provoked does not help him in this area.

Enhanced Senses: His sight and hearing are slightly better than normal humans and his scent is far greater than that of ordinary humans, up to the point of being able to track a scent for days under good conditions. He tends to rely on these senses too much and thinks they always show him the truth, while that isn’t always the case. He sometimes experiences ‘tunnel vision’, and not just on his vision. When there is something of particular interest, like a scent or an object he really wants to have he tends to forget about everything else around him.

Territorial: Whenever he settles down he sets up his territory, usually a large area around his base of operation. Soon after setting this up he will know all the ins and outs of this area and develop a sense for intruders. He completely ignores the surroundings of his territory however and his danger sense will not work with targets trying (and succeeding) to be discreet. You can completely remove his advantages by competing for the territory, just like animals do. Apply your own marks on top of his with whatever could be perceived as a mark related to you, or fight over it and win and it won’t be his territory anymore. He shares his knowledge with his pack (Might be a weakness in the case of a betrayal).

Pack mentality: He feels the movements and actions of his allies slightly before they perform them. This makes him able to compliment just about everybody. The only drawback is that the pack has to have a clearly defined leader, an alpha (fe)male so to speak, and the pack member need to know what they’re doing. He won’t be able to adjust to a complete novice, nor will he be able to compliment something he does not know or understand.

Strengths

Gun Kata: Every T17 unit has a specialty. Zev’s are guns, specifically the smaller ones, in both ranged and melee combat. The aim of his technique is to put as much pressure on an opponent as possible while limiting the time he is exposed to harm. In melee combat his strategy remains the same, dodge/block/counter an opponent until a lethal shot can be taken. Has a good eye, but nowhere near a perfect shot. His guns also function as melee weapons and while he can fight bare fisted, he is nowhere near as good at it as when he has his guns.

Teamwork: Zev works better in a team with people he can rely on. He is great in one-on-one or many-vs-few battles, but if the numbers stack against him or his team he will not operate nearly as efficient as he normally does.

Operating in a hierarchy: One leader and his pack, that’s how he likes it. There should be one person defined as the leader, and this person needs to be capable to do so or be replaced with someone else. He’s great at following orders and executing them with great precision. He’s no good leader though.

Weaknesses

Zev was made to be a super-soldier but he is only a prototype, meaning she still has some flaws in his design such as: He has a need to hunt inside him. Whenever something flees from him he has a twitch that tells him to go after it. He can ignore it for a while but the more he does this the more difficult it becomes. The hunt doesn’t necessarily mean he has to kill the target.

He is very protective of his territory and his pack and will literally put his life on the line for either of these, especially the pack leader. He’s also quite stubborn and will never back down, be it in a fight or an argument, even if it’s obvious he will lose.

Requires caffeine on a regular basis, the more the better. If left without some for even a day he will go unconscious and eventually die.

Severe case of tunnel vision, be it because of something interesting or in the middle of a fight. Whether this happens or not depends on the situation.

Only the pack leader has the power to get him out of his tunnel vision or hunting spree and even (s)he can’t do this many times in a row.

Since T17’s are a genetically engineered they require similar blood as other T17s for any transfusion if he would ever lose too much blood from an injury or other similar situation.

]Psychological profile

Likes: A wolf pack, clear hierarchy, guns, meat, rain, the moon, other T17s and winning.
Dislikes: T17 facility, his dependance on caffeine, Melee weapons (Mostly bladed ones, he only trust his fists or guns), any extremely dry area (A desert for instance), being without a pack, his territory/property being taken.
Skills: Expert in small arms and gun maintenance, survivalist (Knows how to survive without the primary necessities of life)
Equipment: Dual custom FN Five-seven handguns, light CRISAT body armor.
Habits/Quirks: Never turns down a challenge, his hunting urge as explained above and marking everything he owns with something that can be traced to him (Be it an emblem, an inscription, etc).
ersonality: In short, aggressive and impulsive. Adheres to a strict line of hierarchy.

Personal Background

Family: T17 Prototypes.
Place of Origin: Secret government facility in Texas.
Current City: Will go anywhere but mostly operates in Steel City.
History: The T17 program was a bit of a failure. Each unit showed a lot of promise when they were younger, but thanks to the animal DNA all of them developed strange traits and flaws as they grew older. In then end this wasn’t enough to cancel the entire program, but the funding went down and life grew harsher within the facility. The guards and instructors became more ruthless, their cuisine severely dropped in quality and even the facility became a place where unruly soldiers were put on guard duty as punishment.

Zev was enhanced with lupine DNA, specifically the wolf. His major flaw is his urge to hunt and his regular need to eat meat. He is able to resist the urge, and trained himself to be better at it, but it only grows stronger every time he fully resists. Luckily his urge is fairly harmless as it doesn’t make him murder the things he chases very often, but coupled with his severe case of tunnel vision it has made him lose his fair share of assignments and quite a bit of fights.

He immediately grabbed the chance to get out when a fellow T17 came up with a plan to escape. He soon enough labeled the one that came up with the plan as their leader, the alpha male, and that enabled him to use all of his powers at their full potential. The group escaped, albeit with heavy casualties, and agreed to split up for the time being. Zev hated the thought of leaving his newfound pack but wasn’t given a choice in the matter. He patiently waits for the day when he can hunt with his brothers and sister again.
