History:
Zeke Arwen comes from a middle class familly, and is an only child. At age 11, he was a perfectly ordinary kid. Until his dad managed to arrage for his class a field trip to the research lab he worked at. Everything went fine until he wandered off. While frantically trying to find his class, he wandered into a restricted area, where a chemical explosion got set off. Miraculously, although he took serious damage all over his body, after a month in the hospital he had fully recovered.
Everything seemed to be perfectly fine, until he hit puberty. Instead of having normal muscle buildup, almost all of it occured in his legs. Ever since then he has been unnaturally fast and athletic, but his upper body strength has always been much weaker than normal boys. From then on he has been an outcast, picked on constantly. Escalating violence against him forced him to transfer to dozens of schools, each one with the same result.
Once, he tried to avoid mistreatment and violence by entering a school with a fake name, and wearing a hat to hide his distinct white hair. However, when a paint scaffolding started to fall on a girl in his class, he dashed over to save her. He succeeded, but the resulting display of speed (and the loss of his hat during the dash) revealed his true identity. Thus he had to transfer again. However, the girl, named Sara, became one of his very close friends.
After several more transfers, and multiple beatings, it occured to him that he had to stand up for himself, and others as well. So he vowed he would learn to fight. Unfortunately, this was not easy for him. His irregular body type caused him to be unable to effectively use most fighting styles he attempted. Because he had practically no upper body strength, and way too much leg strength, a very rare condition, no fighting style seemed to work for him enough. he soon realized he had to be self-taught. He learned use his defection to his advantage, by focusing on speed and kicks, and finding alternatives to punches and blocking. After years of training, he became an incrediblly dangerous force.
Despite his skill, his sense of justice has frequently gotten him in over his head. He can't stand to see someone get beaten up, mugged, or attacked in any way. Thus has had many incidents of taking on local gangs, often alone. Although he has had some successes, most times he was lucky to escape with his life.
Gangs weren't his only opponents, however. At nearly every school he has attended, he has had incidents with the student pillars. While they claimed to keep order, Zeke saw them to be no different from the gangs and punks he had faced before- nothing more than common bullies. Unfortunately, during a fight with one of the pillars named Dante Onferni, he accidentally kicked him out of a window. While the corporal punishment system protected him from expulsion even for that penalty, violent attitudes towards him and increasing attacks on him forced him to transfer to another school.
Although he is athletic, his weak arms have made it impossible for him to get into any sports teams at any of the schools he has attended. The only thing he ever gets into is track, but his history of violence (whatever his intent was) has even then kept him off the team.
The last school he was at tolerated him for the longest amount of time. However, when he saw a teacher brutally attacking a student, he had to intervene. When he told the teacher to leave the student alone, the teacher laughed and just kept attacking the kid. Zeke saw no choice but to stop him by force. Unfortunately, an attack on a faculty member was the last straw, and he was forced to leave, even after the kid tried to explain what happened.
A few days after transfering to Hircine High, he was attacked by Dante, and the two had various violent encounters over the next few weeks. After one fight broke his arm, he promised Sara he would not fight again until it healed. He also learned about a group called the Watchers, which he immediately dispised. He vowed he would one day take them down. Once Zeke's arm healed, Dante's goons managed to trick Zeke into thinking Sara had been kidnapped by Dante. After a huge battle, a Watcher stopped the fight, and was about to administer punishment when Dante had a change of heart and attacked the Watcher, telling Zeke to run. The next day, he joined the gang Revelation, in order to take down the Watchers, whom he still vows to destroy.
Fighting style: While he mostly relies on kicks, he also uses punches combined with a short dash towards the opponent, thus relying on momentum rather than strength. Because of this, he constantly avoids direct contact with the enemy, as his lack of weight and strength make him poorly suited for strength matches.
Strengths: Incredibly fast, skilled at jumping, and has very good stamina. Posesses strong kicks, capable of sending some opponents flying, and breakind down doors. Great reflexes and reaction time.
Weaknesses: very weak punches, (with the exception of the above-mentioned dash punches) and overall arm strength. very light, easily knocked around. also, when doing his dash punches, he frequently leaves himself little room to stop, counting on the impact with the enemy to slow him down enough to do so. Therefore, if he misses, he becomes very vulnerable and open to attack, or sometimes he even crashes into a wall behind the target.
Signature moves:
Hammer Kick (Jumps up, forward flips, and uses the momentum to slam his heel into the opponent's head.)
Marathon punch (dashes forward at blinding speed and uses the momentum to punch the opponent in the chest)
NPCs:
Sara (Last name unknown)
Zeke's friend whom he saved from a falling painter scaffolding at one of his old schools. She has kept in touch with him and become one of his few friends. She's secretly in love with him, and is constantly worried about his well-being, since he gets into so many fights.
Dante Onferni
Zeke's former rival. He used to be a pillar at his old school, but after accidentally getting kicked out of a window by Zeke, he was put in the hospital. When he came out, they had already replaced him After that, he trained his body to be completely immune to pain, and such training also allowed him to recognize weakpoints on the human body. He later transferred to Hircine, where he pursued Zeke for revenge for a few weeks, until their last battle in the school auditorium was interrupted by a Watcher, and he realized that he was wrong the entire time. He attacked the Watcher and told Zeke to run. He later joined Revelation a little while after Zeke did, but lost the gang of students from his old school who also hated Zeke when they settled their differences.
Fighting style: Due to his immunity to pain, he is capable of fighting without worrying about guarding himself. His style is fairly straightforward. He locates the enemy's weakpoints, and attacks them without mercy.
Strengths: Due to his training, he is completely immune to pain. He is also capable of locating enemy weakpoints by sight alone, and expoits them with great skill.
Weaknesses: His immunity to pain does not make him immune to damage. Frequently he will put his body in a very dangerous state and not realize it.
Zeke's Friends: Antonio.
Zeke's Aquaintances: Kyousuke, Travis, Ran Ling Xiao, Kit/Lee, Kayar, Alasdair Waldgrave, Pine, Mae-lim, Conner.
Zeke's Enemies: Traytaine.
Currently in the gang Revelation.
