Important Details
History: Lye’s first memory was when he was around the age of four years old. He even at that age knew he considered himself the man in the house when his dad was away. He would strut around moving random object in the house to make a point they where his. It was at this age he meet his brother for the first time. He new something was up in the house. His dad had just left to go away again. The house for a few days before hand had been happier than he could ever remember. His mother and father never stopped smiling. So he decided after his dad’s departure it was time to make the first set of rounds on the house. He gradually made it upstairs. This was rare as the gates at the top and bottom of the stairs where usually locked. So as he reached the second door (A door he could not remember ever going in before) walked in. He could not remember what the room looked like only that it had a large cot in the middle. He walked over and looked through the bars into the cot to discover his little brother. He was mesmerized then. He can’t remember how long he stood there watching him but it felt an age. It was only when his mother shouted for him did he snap out and run out of the room not looking back. He ran as if he had done something wrong. It was only when he reached the bottom on the stairs did he stop and look back having the single thought of his new friend. He was so small. Now that his dad wasn’t at home. It’s his job to protect him.
For the next ten years life in his memory was vague. He knew these where the best time of his life but no major memories seemed to stick in his mind day in day out. That saddened lye, but also at time made him laugh because the next major memory was the major defining turn in his life. The one memory he wishes to forget he couldn’t. This memory was of the death of his younger brother. His brother at age of nine and a half, committed suicide in the room they both shared. It was Lye who found him hanging by a robe that was tied to the bed post of there shared bunk bed. Lye found out two weeks later that he had been having problems in school. Bullies had driven him to that point with not physical but mental assaults. It was a year later that lye final snapped. He had found the same thing happing to a girl in school by two boys. He fought them on the spot besting one and mounting him, then beating him till his hands where raw. While the other broke his nose and continued to beat on the rest of his body. He was suspend from school for four weeks. When he came back there was larger group of the boys friends waiting outside the school grounds for him everyday that week. He took every beating they gave him. He always fought back but there was just too many.
It was after that that he decided to try and learn a proper art of fighting. Around his local area he found a mixed martial arts class teaching a wide range of techniques. He trained there everyday after school for a year. During this year they encouraged him to include swimming in his training scheme as it developed an all round body. It was another happy time in his life. He never had any run-ins with bullies and he made good friends at his club. Just after his 16th birthday it all started again. There was a younger kid named Jake who had just joined the club. Lye was the first to befriend him. It was weeks later that he found out the reason for them joining the club. He was being bullied by a well known boy in the lower class region of the city. His name was Kyle. It was when he heard this that he stuck close to his friend. One weekend Kyle turned up with two friends. Straight away they started taunting Jake. Jake dropped his head and tried to urge on Lye but he turned and shouted back. This riled Kyle and the group ran over. Soon a fight started and Lye easily won. Soon after the bulling stop for Kyle. Lye however did not have the same luck. Kyle’s family was large and so was the gang that came with the family. Lye stood no chance with them all and was soon hospitalised. The broke three of his right ribs. Three weeks later Lye took his revenge on Kyle alone. He did the same thing to Kyle. Breaking ribs on his right side. That never stopped it and once again the gang came to find lye. This time they broke his left foot tearing all the ligaments from the bone. He also had a sever concussion and broke two teeth.
It was at this point fearing Lye’s safety did his parents send him to live with his Uncle in America.
Fighting Style: Lye learned from a branch of fighting schools that sprung up across the UK to combat bored teenagers. He joined and was taught by a man who specialised in Vale Tudo. Vale Tudo is the Brazilian term for mixed martial arts that has three main styles.
Stand-up.
Clinch.
Ground.
Lye adopted from his trainer the stand-up technique where he would use set distances as zones to change his style of fighting in each zone. In this style there are four different zones. The comfort zone in which Lye’s opponent can’t reach him with out try to close a large distance. Giving Lye the time to assess the situation and surroundings. The Kicking zone is the most active zone where Lye uses the more damaging side of his technique. Here he can make consistent contact with all areas of the opponent but also have a good defensive distant to block or dodge incoming attacks. The Punch Zone is by far the most effective zone but also the most dangerous, for himself and the opponent. Here he can effectively block most high damage kicks and use up close hooks, elbows, knees and small jabs. Though here he is easily grappled or clinched. The Clinch Zone is the same zone as the punch but here it differs as both parties are not 100% free to move. It is here where submission and grape move come into place. Lye accelerated in the first three zones.
Strengths: Lye’s slight build allows him to move fast and allow quicker use of kicks or punches. Allow not very tall he has a long reach for his size with his legs. He is also very flexible and has a large stamina.
Weaknesses: Lye due to his slight build is slightly weaker and easily throne about. He also uses his speed to give fast large number of blow very quickly but these blows tend to lack the power on much larger opponents. Due to his past he also has slightly weaker left shin.
