Name: Dietfried Hans
Age: 22
Canon or OC: Original (From FF13 world.)
Weapons/Abilities:

• RIP [Rest in pieces] (weapon) - A custom made twin pistols for a short-ranged combat. It fires .45 ACP full metal jacket rounds at a deadly accuracy and each magazine carries up to eight rounds. The weapon is carved with many microscopic runic symbols for enchanting purposes; also the weapon’s components are made from mithril ores that’s been folded several times mixed with titanium making it extremely durable. The gun’s tolerance is also loose making it relatively maintenance free. Strangely for a swordsman Hans uses twin RIPs as his primary weapon more than his sword
  
  
• KETSUEKI (weapon) – A sword that’s been rumored to have been forged by the all-famous sword smith Muramasa himself, but it’s actually a fake. Quite inferior compared to the original, but the cutting power is just as deadly as any other sharp blades out there. This katana; however, works more like western blades that’s used to hack and smash into the defenses. Weight on this weapon isn’t really an issue, Hans can still perform graceful techniques against his enemies.
  
  
• FLOAT – Hans is able to float for a short period of time; it can either be used to gain an extra distance for his jumps or other things.
  
  
• RIP GENOCIDE – In order to use this ability, Hans’ magazines must be empty. Upon activation the runes on his weapon glows brilliantly and without even pressing the trigger the weapon fires a rapid death of lead poisoning, literally making his pair of pistols into a pair machine pistols (machine pistols are fully automatic pistols). This ability only lasts for only a short period of time and it reduces his accuracy (1 post) and within that time he has unlimited rounds that he can spare. The secret behind this ability is when both of the pistols glow brightly it absorbs some of Hans’ magical power, and because the bullets are small the magical energy embedded into the weapons is almost guaranteed not to run out until the ability resides. On the down side this ability has tendency to overheat his weapon due to rapid fire, thus both pistols needs to cool down (3 posts) before being used again, but with water the pistols cool down instantly.
  
  
• THE VOID OF MAGUS -
  'I call to the sky,
  O' lord why have you forsaken me?
  I have painted many of my days black,
  Yet, I am yet to see the end of the crimson sky that lies before me,
  And my enemies crumble before my shadow as I fight alone,
  So, I as I pray, I call upon The Void of Magus!'
  
  
  The Void of Magus is a powerful reality bending ability used by Hans, but that doesn’t mean that an entire world becomes twisted with his imagination. This ability covers the radius of 120 feet starting from the center where he chooses it to be. This ability takes shape of the user’s personality and imagination, and because Hans is a man that ‘Lives by the sword, and dies by the sword’ (of course that doesn’t mean that he uses violence) his void is a beautiful lush green field that surrounds both him and his opponents and Hans describes it as a ‘Peaceful, but depressing graveyard of weapons sticking out from the ground like tombstones.’. Within this world Hans is able to control what is going on around him which means with flicker of his hand he can hurl up to three weapons (of any kind except firearms or long ranged weapons) to attack his opponents. There are countless weapons around for him to use, even if any of them breaks Hans has more than right to pick up another one and so does his enemy.
  
  This magic is not very often practiced by Hans due to his lack of talent in magical studies, but despite his lack of talent he is able to hold it up quite well for a reasonable amount of time (4 posts) due to his sheer large amount of magical energy surging within him. The weakness lies within his emotional and physical condition, while Hans has great control over his emotions, but the fact that he gets hurt a lot when fighting has tendencies to get him into trouble when he tries to use this ability. A poor physical shape to fight can affect the chanting of his spell halfway and nullify it. The continuous and rapid usage of this ability can lead him to chronic depression, make him mentally unstable, or at worst cases literally destroy his consciousness which would leave him in a vegetated state.
  
  
• IMAGINE - Hans' abilities are rather unique, while he’s not considered the most talented or strong in realm of magic among the magical swordsmen, but instead it's made up for his ‘Imagine’ ability. Imagine activated by knowing the object’s materials, components, and the elements that it makes up. For example, if Hans wants to copy a chair then he obviously knows that it is made from couple of screws and wood. It also requires the physical object memorization as well, in order to bring out accurate results that he wants he must have almost perfect memory of the object (He can't perfectly replicate the object). He is also able to double the materials and strengthen the object that he has copied to make it better (but it will never be as good as original); however, if an object has a magical effect embedded within it there is no way that Hans can copy its abilities unless he has experienced it at first hand and knows the secret behind it, but he can't possibly copy everything. An organic living being cannot be copied and the bigger the object the more magical energy that Hans must consume to copy it.
  
  
• FIRA - Hans calls forth a pillar of flame underneath his enemies to cause moderate fire-elemental damage on them. It's often used to stop his enemy in their tracks.
  
  
• FLAMESTRIKE - By enchanting his blade with a fire-based element Hans strikes at his foes with fire physical-based property. It enhances his damage with his sword and also it's an ideal attack against most type of foes that are weak against fire.
  
  
• STEELGUARD - Putting himself into a defensive position, Hans' magical energy surges around him making the foes that are striking him to have difficult time to get by him. It greatly increases his resistance against physical and magical attacks for a short amount of time.
  
  
• SLOW - Hans slows his foe's reaction time for a brief moments. (2 posts)

Personality:

[/b][/i]
[li] Devoted;; Hans is a type who would dedicate himself to what he does. No matter what the task, whether it be extremely academically, mentally, or physically challenging he will see to that it is finished. There are times when he pushes things to the extreme, but it's very common for him to do. While it isn't such a good habit; however, this kind of devotion has gotten him very far in life.

[/li][li] Honest;; Sometimes this can be considered both positive and negative trait about him. He's really an honest person, but maybe a bit too honest. That radical personality of his tends to get him into a lot of trouble in social situations. It's quite unfortunate that Hans doesn't know how to tell white lies at certain times. He's quite blunt, also brutally honest about things and doesn't really hold back on what he thinks no matter what.

[/li][li] Decisive;; Quick decision is vital, and as a person that was in a leadership position Hans is very straight forward on his answers. There is yes and a no. It is guaranteed that if one asks a question they will either one of those answers or something else that has to do with the question that they are asking.

[/li][li] Courageous;; If one have been through several fights involving delivering lead poisoning, been at several of them, and came out alive each time they probably won't fear a lot of things after a while. That doesn't mean he's fearless though. Hans isn't afraid of diving into danger, but this kind of courage tends to get him into a lot of trouble in tight situations.

[/li][li] Patient;; He's really a patient person, but don't test it that much with annoyance or incompetence. Hans also has his limits like every other human being.

NEGATIVE?!

[/li][li] Emotionally repressed;; For a long period of time Hans has never revealed his emotions. He still keeps his very own thoughts and concerns embedded within his heart, refusing to share it with anyone for he is afraid to break down once he releases it. To be honest, Hans is very shy to share his feelings with others because of his sensitivity.

[/li][li] Stoic;; Never feeling truly happy even if he sees something he likes, Hans is very indifferent when it comes down to emotional highs and pleasures. He currently feels that he just doesn't deserve such things, thus he pushes all those kinds of things aside. If anything he feels guilty when he looks at the things he likes.

[/li][li] Stubborn;; For him there is no such thing as second thoughts within his vocabulary. Once Hans makes a decision he will not back down from the decision that he had made and continue down the path until he reaches the end. This type of stubbornness won't ever let him accept defeat or failures, he likes to think that if he loses his victory was only delayed.

[/li][li] Cautious;; Never liking to receive help, Hans is very distrustful to others except those who are close to him. Facing off against numerous ambushes and sweet traps the young man refuses any help given to him, but a man like him who’s been fighting from all over the place is understandable. Hans also tends to be careful of the environments that he is in, at the same time he takes his time to study them and make sure that no traps or ambushes are laid.

[/li][li] Gloomy;; After killing thousands with no remorse and finally realizing that what went wrong with his very own two hands, Hans broke down. He always has a disheartened and dark look on his face, and he refuses to talk about what made him this way. The more you mention about the murder the wider the gap would become, but that is if you do remind him about it. [/li][/ul][/blockquote]

History:

Hans was once a gang leader that lived at Cacoon. Many probably may be expecting to hear he was a bad kid or a child that was strayed off to another direction. As you may expect Hans was born in the poor districts of the cities. While most boys were suffering he realized at such a young age as eight that survival was important, because no one was going to survive for you. He was enlightened by this philosophy when they came home with minimum wage; unable to watch his own family members suffer he started with a couple of robberies and burglary. His family wondered where all the food came from, and of course he lied that some nice men from charity program came over, gave the food and left. Obviously they bought it.

His burglary and robberies continued to ensue for two years. At Hans' tenth birthday he was finally caught during late midnight while he was stealing some rice bags from breaking into someone else’s shop, during his capture he was severally beaten then was taken back to Hans' residence with several cuts and bruises. His family members were obviously surprised and asked what happened, and the man who brought Hans told the truth behind where all the food came from for last two years. He now was faced with charge of burglary and trespassing. It wasn’t long before the trust within the family for the boy grew thin, and even his father stopped believing him.

Unable to cope with the loneliness he joined the local gang called: ‘G-busters’ and there he started to learn how to fight as early as 12; however, from that time the boss just only ordered him around for drinks and cigarettes. The boss always gave him a special treatment because he was a kid, and it was fortunate that he had a boss who actually cared about his subordinates. Hans was sent to school by his boss and when he came back he learned from him how to be a leader, and he was taught to lead, kill, threaten, and even sabotaging other gang activities. At the age of 14 he was finally welcomed into the family. He got his own pistol and participated in the first gang war against ‘Vox de Diablo’ the rival gang that constantly had a quarrel with his gang.

Entering his very first firefight at an age of 18 he never knew that gunfights would be so scary; however, in some devil’s luck he came out alive in one piece from fight after fight that lasted an entire week. During the war he shot the rival gang leader in the head, thus killing him. Then after Hans' become a little bit more 'manlier' if that’s the right word for it. The gang obviously partied, drinking and getting wasted. His boss on the other hand was enough of an idiot that decided to drive after drinking, and on that night he died from the car crash. Within the midst of chaos Hans took control of the gang manipulating and bending them to his will through several death threats and by earning respect with force.

Upon a few weeks on his rule, Hans found himself in a gang war against the rival gangs once more, although the victory went to their side he found his father being mixed up in this whole mess. He was shot and killed during the whole event. He was then later caught by several policeman charged with several cases of murder, but the before the sentence for his crimes the court gave the young man an option for a redemption. He either had the chance of serve as a PSICOM soldier or go to jail.

In order to redeem himself Hans entered the PSICOM, for he knew that by going to jail he would rot for the rest of his life without being able to take any actions. Going through harsh selection process and basic training, he became the soldier that he was forced to be. He never wanted to be one, he placed his life on the line in order to redeem for what he had done by killing his own father. As early as two years, Hans became one of the most decorated soldiers in PSICOM and was quickly promoted to captain of his own regiment. Taking the responsibility of job that he had in his hand he carried out countless purges upon cocoon for the sake of ‘protecting’ people.

Men, women, children he slew that were deemed the enemies of the cocoon that had the mark of cursed mark of Pulse l’Cie with no remorse. His abilities also became developed while on the job, along his travels his magical powers became developed to a point where his armor was far too weak to control any of it. There was no technology that could suppress his ability, so he trained on his own to keep his powers in check and managed to succeed after a long four months of constant meditation. As soon as he had his abilities under control Hans was sent to another purging mission, but this time it was Eden and he was given control over the one third of the regiment in that city.

There he was met with a furious resistance of the rebels. Hans unable to comprehend why people won’t accept the Purge, they were doing this so that they will protect others. During his mission he met up with one of the rebels and asked the man why he they were resisting, and when the man told him the truth behind it Hans’ began to question and contradict to what PSICOM said to him. People’s point of view never lied compared to the government. He began to realize what he was doing after all these years was wrong and he just killed more people thinking that he was redeeming himself.

Hans immediately broke down after the events in Eden, and quitted the PSICOM and resigned his position within his regiment. Currently, he wonders around Cocoon and makes attempts sabotage PSICOM’s efforts to purge others.

Likes: Plushies, spicy food, women, realism, philosophy, violin, reading, drawing, and painting

Dislikes: Idealists, sweet food, PSICOM, failures, cocky showoffs, stupidity, unnecessary fighting, and being forced to take someone's life

RP Sample:

..

"Only if I had been to places like this more...."

------

It was a long snowy late evening in the carnival city of Nautilus. While everyone else seemed like they were playing, Hans managed to find a quiet place to stay to view its rare serene silence and possibly draw if there was no one outside in this cold night. The dim lights from the lamp posts and the silver light from the moon managed to shine the garden to its perfection. With violin, sketchbook, and a pencil in his hand Hans sat down by the steps, just looking at its rare beauty in the night made him pick up his pencil and a sketching book to draw and possibly play Beethoven's classic 'Moonlight Sonata'. This place sure was fancier than most of the other places. This place had from exquisite foods, finest drinks, and luxurious hotels. What else can an average person that came to this place ask for?

He walked around the garden trying to see where he may be able to draw in peace without much disturbance. It was a long time ever since he picked up his pencil and sketch book full of pictures that he drew. Every page was filled with all kinds of artistic sketches of both realistic and non-realistic. If his old teachers saw this they would try and exploit the talent.

Upon reaching the bench with a lamppost Hans cleared away the snow with his shoes before sitting down. He opened the sketchbook and started to draw the snowy scene before him. It seemed like he can only draw during night time, maybe he should come out here often and to be honest back at Eden they didn’t have a garden like this. They had a green house, but they never had a professionally kept garden like this. Hell, this almost seemed as if you’ll see something out from painting.

Hans made sure everything was in right proportion from its scale. He had already made sure to catch every single details of this garden in the sketchbook, and if he liked it he was thinking about painting it later on if he had time. He rarely had any free time though, most of the time you would see him in the dorm either doing homework or studying to prepare him for the next lesson that his teacher may give him. So, only time it seemed like he had most time was during weekend nights, but with a snow outside it did make things a little more beautiful than it already was.

The wind brewed up slightly, and temperature itself got lower than before. Even with his leather jacket he shivered from the freezing wind of the winter, but first he wanted to draw a little before going back in. The wind died down a little fortunately, and it was a good thing that so far he didn’t manage to wet his sketching paper or else he may have to start over again. Hans let out a silent sigh of relief for that with white steam coming out from the gaps of his mouth.

Although, it was unfortunate that he won't be able to play his violin that he had on his side because there was a chance for blizzard soon from what he had predicted. At this rate if the snow came down harder than it already was, perhaps he may not even be able to finish the picture at all.
