===POWERS===

Powers:
Peak Physical Condition- Being a Zydon, Lefray is naturally in peak physical shape.
-He can lift a maximum of 0.5 tons. This is not very impressive on the level of meta-humans with enhanced or super strength, but it is very impressive for a normal human. Among the Zydon, such strength is not uncommon.
-He can run at up 25 miles per hour.
-He has a nearly inexhaustible pool of stamina. Don’t count on him getting tired in the middle of a fight.
Martial Arts Mastery- Lefray has trained for years in martial arts. He has achieved the highest level of skill.
-Accurate Strikes- His attacks are more likely to hit than those of normal people or even normal martial artists. His attacks can easily shatter bones of a normal human.
-Evasive- His reflexes are honed so well that he can easily evade the attacks of someone who is not trained to an equal level.
-Pressure Points- He knows how to use pressure points to knock people out without doing damage to them. This technique works best on NPC’s. For PC’s, he usually has to incapacitate them first.
Ki- Lefray has become aware of the flow of ki in the universe. He can tap into this power in three different ways. Lefray must spend several seconds (1 post) gathering his ki into the body part before each use of an ability. He can keep the ki energy within him for 1 minute before it dissipates.
-Empowered Strikes- Lefray can empower a part of his body, usually his fist, knee, or foot. While it is empowered, the chosen body part becomes invincible. In addition, when his attack lands, the ki energy is released, bypassing the defensive value of armor and enhanced durability, allowing him to harm otherwise seemingly invincible opponents. The damage done will also be more one of his normal punches against a normal person, as though his fist was made of solid steel. When he uses this technique, the ki energy is only released when he strikes something solid.
-Heal- Lefray channels his ki into positive, healing energy. He can heal all injuries on himself or somebody he touches within 2 seconds (In combat he must still spend a post gathering ki). This technique can neutralize poisons, but cannot re-attach or re-grow severed limbs. He can also not cure diseases.
-Shockwave- Creates a shockwave that expands to reach a 15 foot radius. Everyone within this range is thrown back by 10 tons of force. The sudden, extreme force usually stuns people who are hit by it head-on.

Skills:
Stealth- Lefray can move without making sound. If he has to move over something noisy, like broken glass, he can still move silently, but must do so very slowly.
Acrobatics- Lefray can perform simple acrobatic feats like flips and summersaults with ease.
Tumbling- Lefray can fall from heights of up to 50 feet without taking damage.

Weaknesses:
Squishy- Lefray has no durability factor, and can be hurt by anything that would hurt a normal human.
Concentration- His ki abilities require concentration. If something interferes with that concentration, he will not be able to channel his ki. Also, in combat it takes him a post to collect enough ki to use an ability.
Peak, not Enhanced- Lefray can be overpowered by opponents that have enhanced strength.
Ranged Combat- He has no means of fighting opponents at a distance. Though his reflexes are quite useful in melee combat, he will not be able to dodge bullets.

Equipment:
Basic Leather Armor- Provides a small amount of protection against physical attacks.
Translator- How can you exterminate humans without talking to them? It just isn’t done.

===PSYCHOLOGICAL PROFILE===

Personality:
Lefray usually has to be shaken awake before a mission, as he is a very deep sleeper and takes every opportunity to sleep more. He often meditates to become more aware of the flow of ki, but he usually ends up falling asleep during these times. He doesn’t speak about his past very much, for fear that people will think he is insane. Those who get to know him well, though, may hear about his struggle to defeat the black bird. After every fight, Lefray bows to his opponent, out of respect. Although he is always ready for a fight, fighting itself is not something he enjoys. He sees it as means to an end. Even though he may have qualms about killing people, he will not disobey an order. He does not want to get exiled again.

Strengths:
-Stays calm even when in danger
-Strong Willpower
-Naturally Perceptive
-High Pain Tolerance

Interests/Habits:
Training, meditating, fighting, sleeping.

===PERSONAL BACKGROUND===

Family Members: Leon and Aeris Lefray (Parents)
Place of Origin: Odamar (small colony planet near the Zydon home world)
Current City: Jump City
History:
The Zydon are not always at peace with each other. The Black Wing Monks are considered outcasts among Zydon society, as well as insane and dangerous. The Zydon scientists cannot understand ki, the strange power source that the Black Wing Monks control. For this reason, they were exiled to the planet of Odamar, without any technology available to leave the planet.

Leejay Lefray was born in this exiled colony. He was raised in a monastery, taught martial arts and how to use ki, and instructed in the beliefs of the Black Wing. One night, he dreamt that he fought a huge, black bird. At the end of the dream, he was defeated. From that moment on, there was a darkness inside him. He became obsessed with becoming stronger and defeating all of his peers, in hopes that he would be able to defeat the black bird the next time they met. Being more powerful than everyone else became the most important thing to him. Unfortunately, he was not able to defeat several fellow students, and this fact brought his obsession to unhealthy levels. Eventually, he was cast out from the monastery (for his own good) in order to learn contentment and self-control.

After the human’s plague devastated the Zydon, a military general flew a small ship to Odamar, asking if any of the Black Wings could cure the alien disease that had befallen his son. Unfortunately, he found the monastery filled with nothing but corpses. A traveling tradesman had unknowingly spread the disease, killing everyone in the monastery. But not everyone on Odamar had died. There was still the outcast, Lefray. The general found Lefray and informed him that everyone he knew was dead. Lefray was furious. Now he would never be able to continue his training, to prove that he could beat his peers, and to defeat the black bird.

Thinking Lefray to be insane but dangerously useful, the general recruited him to join the war against the humans. Lefray accepted. By fighting the humans, Lefray hopes to hone his skills until he is again brought to the attention of the black bird, which Lefray suspects is some sort of cosmic entity connected with the Black Wing Monks. It is his destiny, he believes, to fight this bird again and win. He also wishes to avenge the monks who were killed by the human-caused disease.

Bump.

Just a single question, are his ki enforced strikes more a means of defying defenses or doing a ton of damage? I get that he'd get past most character defences but is it through extreme force or the ki does the damage.

For example...would one of the hits just obliterate a normal person or would it just be a really hard punch? Would it feel the same to someone with durability? Would it bust down a concrete wall? Just sorta confused on if it scales due to durability.

A good question.

His ki enforced strikes are a means of bypassing defenses, not of doing more damage. It makes his attack feel the same to whoever gets hit by it. A normal human, or someone with a ton of durability would both take the same amount of damage.

That said, it would still be a slightly harder punch, since his fist becomes invincible. So it would be like getting punched by someone wearing brass knuckles, hitting just a little bit harder than normal.

So whoever he punches with a ki-enforced strike will feel as though they were a normal human who got punched with brass knuckles. He could not break down a brick wall, but it would help him break a single brick in half without also breaking his hand.

Approved.
