SKILLS: Advanced Survival & Hunting Skills. Basic Tactics and Battle Understanding. Basic Navigation and Weather Reading. PERSONALITY: Edge is quite courageous and upstanding usually leading to a battle with his own sense of strength and drive being someone who fights to protect others and do well. Due to his nature of “justice” he tries to exceed the expectations of others by moving forward and placing many burdens on his own shoulders. He fights to protect the weak and defenseless without a second thought due to his years of service with the knight's and as such is someone who will not stand by and watch someone be hurt if defenseless. Due to this, even if he knows something is a trap he will dive into a fight headfirst without expectations of being paid back for his troubles basically because it is the right thing to do. He genuinely wants to help others with all his strength and due to his father and mothers influence wishes to forge his own path with both this and his swordsmanship. Edge outside of battle can be considered quite goofy and open often telling jokes (even if not funny) to lighten moods or trying to have fun. He can often also be seen training by himself if he is ever missing and practices his sword swings daily (with a regiment of at least 10,000 horizontal, vertical, and thrust swings everyday he can), this is also used to “think” and is a time of which he uses to plan whatever his next step is to be if he can. He is not good with women though and is usually shy and awkward also he doesn't understand them well considering he often trained as a kid so he never had a girlfriend or has had to deal with them. He is completely heterosexual though and understands enough about the opposite sex to know this. He can also be quite intelligent and is capable of thinking and processing things with a great deal of focus and aptitude being capable to consider things under pressure and usually make good decisions unless a comrade or an innocent victim is in the picture. Edge usually likes to test his abilities in challenges and battles and has no qualms about fighting strong oppositions and preferably chooses to because then he can showcase the true limits of his own abilities and become stronger. The reason why he trains so much is because he values the abilities of the sword just as much as he values the ability to protect as in an age of battles and fighting one needs strength in order to surpass those who are supposedly stronger than them thus he continues to try and find opponents who can test such limits. As such he is very passionate in battle especially against those who fit this quota. Edge however is not without faults and can be quite ruthless and vengeful to vile and corrupted individuals who only wish to do harm to others to gain something for themselves. He doesn't like to follow the orders to allow something to happen to others and sit by to watch and will not allow for something he dislikes to go uninterrupted in this type of situation. He has no fear for his own life if he can protect the lives of others in return and thus again will shoulder guilt if he cannot do so. He believes heavily in friendship and will help allies or comrades even if they dislike him or have hostile behaviors; though if they use this aspect to attack him or to do harm to people he trusts he will fight them to defeat them also persuading them while doing so. Edge is however not in battle for glory and was taught to do things for himself and to better himself thus disallowing him to accept many tokens of appreciation unless absolutely necessary and will usually decline such offers. He tries to understand people, though can be brash towards people who show great cowardice, self-destructive, or “weak” natures and will try to talk them out of it if he can. Due to his belief in friendship, he often tries to talk comrades who turn bad out of such a thing though if he cannot he will understand and fight them back. He doesn't take backstabbing very well though and in battle can be quite ruthless because of it and if a comrade is hurt or in great trouble with fight with great strength to save or avenge them with his own to hands. Basically set, Edge is highly idealistic and believes that a better world can be forged by the peoples own hands and feet standing and walking forward through the paths they themselves have forged. He presses forward. He is often charismatic and fun-loving and tries to make it so that his friends don't lose faith in themselves though he often comments that it is harder than it seems he often makes genuine pleas of help and if they do not wish for his help shall understand and not bother them about such things unless they place peoples lives in danger. He often does things his way, and does not care if people dislike him for it if it is done to either protect others or his friends (even if his friends turn their backs on him for what he does). He tries to sympathize with people and understand them as best he can and takes from what hardship he endures to showcase those experiences he has learned and developed himself through. COMBAT INFORMATION SPECIALTY: Instinctive & Refined Swordsmanship Aptitude. Natural Battle Understanding. Well-Trained Physique. FIGHTING STYLE: Due to his early childhood experiences and living in the mountains of his kingdom (having to survive by himself in the wilderness) Edge was once a self-taught swordsman and hunter having to rely on his own abilities and fighting skills as well as natural talent (he'd only got the very basic instructions of his fathers lessons thus he had to make things up as he went along), due to this he used a style that was more based on his instincts rather than finesse. After training with his mentor his style became less instinctive and more finesse, and uses a bit of both in battle. He can use both short swords (daggers and knives) as well as long swords (claymores, broadswords, etc) in battle as a result due to his experience as a hunter. Edge is trying to create his own integral style for himself while training as his mentor told him to do so as a style all his own is a style he can be proud of. Due to this, Edge uses his experiences and trains profusely meaning the most basic slashes are etched into his body. This also allows him to have an extremely powerful grip and thus it is not easy to take or blow his sword away (he may even be blown away with it instead of it only being taken away). He usually attacks with two-handed battle style because it is a natural stance that allows power and speed to be used in sword slashes, thus he balances both in his style. In terms of ability he can be seen as a well-balanced swordsman focusing on both those aspects. He also has a natural talent with understanding the flow of battle and acting accordingly allowing him to instinctively change his stance or style of battle to fit the situation. WEAPONS: His Sword: Collected during a battle with a certain village from his country, this weapon is a spoil of war. It's made of a greater than steel alloy that allows it to sustain a mass of blows from opponents attacks and take Edge's own great strength in every slash (because every sword he used before used to break from the force administered). The sword is heavier than a normal claymore sword and is used as his main and only weapon. WEAPONS ABILITIES: Lion's Victory Roar -- A powerful cleaving slash (can be horizontal, vertical or diagonal) sending the blade down with great force and speed in which it cuts forth with an energetic slash capable of cutting down an opponents defense if they can't block it correctly. It's linear nature makes it easier to dodge though it slashes at a high speeds The attack is very simple yet effective and from the force of the slash sends a blunt force wave three meters forward which can blow away those who can't withstand its power. This skill takes two cool-down posts. Scattering Sandstorm -- An attack which allows for a multitude of high-speed thrusts forward with the sword sending it forward with relentless blows. The attack is not made to be strong but to be used to bypass an opponents defenses with speed and finesse. This allows for the attack to be fast enough to keep an opponent on their toes and can be used to parry an opponents own attacks at an accelerated rate as well making it a versatile skill. This skill takes two cool-down posts. BACKGROUND INFORMATION HISTORY: Edge was born in the West Blue to a more “medieval” place within the oceans in which he was the son of a knight who was slowly moving up the ranks of his assignment. They lived within the mountains where his father trained in order to become a knight and met his mother and to also help his mother cope with a disease she had gained after three years after Edge was born (since the mountains usually had the freshest air). His father worked hard for what he earned in order to make sure she would be sufficiently treated. His father also had dreams of someday becoming a General or even the Commandant of the entire army of the kingdom even though he knew that was likely nothing more than a fantasy. He often told Edge stories about his battles and made him a fanatic at swordsmanship and knights so much so that he wanted to be one when he got older. One day, Edge's father met an up-and-coming aristocratic noble who had used his position as a corrupted leader within the kingdoms walls in order to become something more using his wealth and profiting from it as he saw fit the King of the Kingdom had no ideas of his ordeals and saw him as an earnest man however, through his various showings of gratitude and “helping” the people. When in reality he often used the people in secrecy to test for his “pets” and experimentation’s. Edge's father had a hunch on this man and his position due to how he seemed very “vile” in a sense. Considering his intuition and following his instincts, Edge's father followed the man to try and lay to rest these suspicions. After seeing his experiments and torturing mannerisms towards innocent people, his father could not sit back and watch and thus tried to tell the king what he saw. The king had become suspicious of Edge's father due to him having no true evidence of credibility but the king did what was asked only to make sure that what the man said was right. Edge's father however would be placed in containment for if he wasn't being honest about these happenings he would be placed to death. The vile nobleman wasn't worried as with the technology allowed to him on the black market of the seas he used special instruments in order to cover all his bases so he would not be found out. Edge's father was in a very tight spot but would own up to his position of what the kind said even though his son and wife would be alone. Thus, placed to death but given the chance to speak to his family one last time through his jail cell, Edge would burst to tears and cry for his father as he saw the last and heard the last words of his father. With no evidence and Edge being so young there was nothing to be done. His father was killed by hanging and Edge was left to sorrowfully rot in his own guilt. However, after months of this, he'd remembered his fathers words and after much inspirations and began to practice swordsmanship at the tender age of six. Edge would try to make sure his mother was treated (though he had no medicine and could not pay for it thus his mother would slowly succumb to the disease eventually). She would make sure that Edge knew how to fetch for himself the necessities of his life even though he was still such a young lad. She would make even more sure to know that he should follow his dream and instincts and try to become a knight in order to find out what happened to his father . The work was hard and long, but he understood its importance and thus grew to become a strong-willed young man capable of fending for himself. At the age of eight however, his mother had passed away leaving him alone in this world. Eight years had passed since his mothers death in which he became sixteen. Due to his training and hunting in the woods he had made himself very adept with his reflexes and natural use of a short sword to which he decided it was time to become a knight. Passing with flying colors his training in the mountains had given him a head-up in battles due to the grueling training and adaptations of such a thing. Thus, entered in as a knight his enthusiasm rang high. However due to his fathers own mess-ups people had often made jokes about Edge which due to his brash nature he often got angry about. People held contempt for someone such as him due to the lies his father told about the corrupt noble. After a month of patrolling and training Edge finally got into a platoon and thus went into battle against groups of enraged beasts that threatened to tear down a nearby village. Edge fought through with much arrogance going and attacking through the hordes of enemies by himself showing off his talents as a swordsman as well making his other brethren feel as if insignificant and making him look worse. After the battle of the beasts Edge got an earful from his commanding officer and was led to do a harsh punishment. It was during this punishment he'd met a man who was a comrade to his father before his death, during such a punishment he'd talked with Edge and told him that he knew his father of which he was a good friend and ally who protected his comrades above all else. After talking with him, and seeing that Edge was still a diamond in the rough deciding to “payback a debt” from his father by training his son in the ways to be a knight. After the incident his mentor began training and teaching him the ways of the knights and that a true knights' honor was to fight for those who couldn't fight for themselves. Through this, Edge started to train in more refined swordsmanship of his masters using his basic stances. His natural talent allowed him to learn quickly and after six months of training and developing his skills he'd become a much more earnest standing committed to honoring and protecting the people that work so hard to cultivate the land he was much less arrogant though it was a slow process and he had a lot to learn still. Once more fate had met with the “Valor” family as Edge had met the noble who had tricked his father and after hearing his fathers words ring through his ears about the man he knew something hadn't been right. After meeting with the man face to face and speaking with him upon passing (of which he was heavily guarded) the man faked the instance of being “happy” to see Edge and said he expected “big things from him”. Edge was easily able to tell this as a lie, and though he wanted to get revenge for his father, he had remembered the words of his mentor and father and went against it. But the noble hadn't he'd began to put into place a plan which would place an end to Edge once and for all not because he was Valor's son, but because he hated his father for almost ruining him and thus wanted his own revenge. His mentor also knew that the noble was of no good and that he should watch his back otherwise he could be one of the victims of such experiments. Edge wanted to prove his fathers innocence but with a thorough smack his mentor told him to shut-up and not to act like such a kid. Edge had listened but a plan was still put into place of which he was framed as a criminal of the kingdom. His mentor had got to him first after hearing this (due to living in the mountains he was safe for the moment and it allowed his mentor who had supreme athletic ability to get to him first). Using his expertise of the oceans and the countries water ways. He told Edge to run and to not get himself killed. When Edge refused, his mentor had fought him in a quick sword fight of which Edge easily lost using the blunt of his blade to knock him out. Gathering a vessel he'd used a one of the secret passages that would be used to send off the king if ever he would need to go into hiding (due to his position and prestige he knew about this). Thus sending Edge to the oceans, he'd made sure to leave a note telling Edge to not interfere and that if he should return he would have to fight him to the death because he'd be dead already if he'd tried to return. After Edge had awoken in the middle of the ocean in unknown waters, his journey would begin. OOC INFORMATION cbox name: Edge AGE: 21 EXPERIENCE: 10 years. OTHER CHARACTERS: None.
