Character
Personality: Ember often seems cocky, self assured and tough as nails. But he also seems to hold a lot of anger inside, old demons of hatred within his soul, so to speak, and he rarely ever does much in the way of socializing, usually remaining silent unless spoken too, and that generally with a lot of hostility in his voice. But he does have a bit of a soft spot for the under dogs who don’t just roll over and let whatever is coming happen, even if they are not very good at it. But either way he always seems cold and hostile to others, or hot headed and outright angry. He doesn’t trust people very easy, and hides his pain, and his heart behind a wall of anger and hatred. He tends to hide away from people, sometimes leaving the city altogether to the countryside or even the wilderness, surviving on his own just so he can get away from it all. but his determination is very strong, and he never knows when to give up or back down. He is also a little attached to his long hair, and takes surprisingly good care of it for someone who is living on the streets and has been bullied for it for a long time. He is fiercely independent and will never ask for help, and refuses to accept the idea of letting himself put any trust or otherwise need support from another. Ember has essentially lost all faith in humanity and believes that if you put your trust in another, they will just let you fall. But underneath his facade of anger and hatred, There is a deep seated loneliness and a lot of pain in his heart, and despite how much he may say otherwise, he does crave affection and approval, friendship.

Physical Abilities
General Physical Capabilities: Ember is quite strong and fast. He is quick on his feet, his awareness of his surroundings and his instincts in fighting are very well developed from years of fighting against bullies and anyone who pissed him off. He can take a lot of hits and keep fighting. He is tough as nails and has an incredibly quick reaction time and is quite athletic.
Fighting Style: Ember has a rough and tough, dirty style of fighting he learned from all his fights, he is even good at fighting groups of people. Learned what works well and what doesn’t and how to use those skills, tricks, and moves, learned from experience from many a brawl over the years.
Fighting Style Pros/Cons: Knows where and how to hit an opponent for maximum damage, Difficult for a normal human to sneak up on him once the adrenaline is pumping because he has become used to dealing with groups who attack you from behind and in front, and can quickly and effectively ‘predict’ an opponent's next move and react accordingly. He has a lot of experience fighting so he knows how to keep his guard up effectively and how and when to strike an opponent, but his overconfidence can be his undoing because he does not know when to quit and never backs down. Very little experience fighting mutants, But he will probably manage to develop to this adversity with some experience.
History Of Your Character
Ember was born in a small town a ways outside of new york, and his mother had died during childbirth. His father, Aaron, was an established businessman, and after the death of his wife, had retreated into his work, almost forgetting about his son beyond keeping him fed and healthy. From this, ember had learned to be very self sufficient. But his father never remembered to take Ember to get his hair cut, so it was just allowed to grow out long, and ember only cut the hair that would get in his eyes. Because of this, when he entered school, he was singled out for being different. At first, Ember tried to make friends and tell the teachers about the Bullies, but nothing ever happened, and his father never did anything about it, he just told Ember to “Go tell the teachers or something. I’m busy.” Ember first started to become a quiet recluse, not even trying to get help.
But as all that was happening, a burning bonfire of rage was growing inside Ember. He kept his anger and his pain inside, never acting on it, until one day, when he was 5 years of age, the beast broke free of his restraining chains. Three boys had him in a corner, mocking him, hurting him, but then Ember finally snapped, his fist flying into the leaders nose, instantly bloodying it. After the initial moment of shock, the three boys came at Ember all at once, but he fought with all his rage, until he had two of them on the ground, and the third running to the teachers. This had caused Ember to be suspended from the school for a whole week, and once he got back, other students went at him even harder, in larger groups, never relenting. And Ember fought them all. At one point when Ember was still nine years of age, a couple of bullies had brought knives to try to intimidate Ember, so they could say they had beaten him, but Ember still fought back, and didn’t even get a scratch, other than on his clothes, until the last bully standing took one last swipe at Ember, and, idiotically, grabbed the blade of the knife with his left hand and punched him in the solar plexus with the other, wrenching it from the attackers hands, not even flinching until he calmed down after delivering a knockout punch to that last attacker. He needed to get several stitches, and even then he never got full articulation back in that hand, but he had enough to still use it. While Ember ended up having no formal fight training, he learned enough on his own from direct experience and research online, and started to work out on his own time to build up strength.
