MMA fighter gone vigilante

What started as a publicity stunt ended up becoming more as the thrill of a no holds barred fight combined with the feeling she got helping people was too good to walk away from.

The Singer of Rumiya

An enigmatic figure who is believed to be a former actor owing his past life to being a Rumiyan nomad.

He's been linked to various crimes in which young women captivated by his songs were made to committ horribly crimes often seemingly unrelated to one another until the full extent of these actions became known.

Some whisper that the Singer gained these powers from his mask which he found to hide scars from being tortured by members of the local mafia who's recent downfall (and the burning of half the city) made his prescene known to the Inquisition.

Thinker
This android makes people uneasy just by being present - while her appearance resembles a human one, you can see the unconcealed mechanical parts moving under it's skin, as it explains battle plans in emotionless, robotic voice.
Thinker's purpose is simple - she gathers information and formulates solutions to the world's problems, untainted by human emotion, prejudices or morality. Democratic goverments dared not combat overpopulation with effective solutions, but Thinker was not bound with the weakness of empathy.

Sir Edward was once a paladin welcomed in the court of his majesty himself. His sword hand always defended the weak, and his golden armor shined like a second sun in the daylight. He fought evil with unmatched valiance and bravery, and none could find themselves doubting his commitment to justice.
...until one day, when the king died and was succeeded by his brother. The new protector of the realm had no love for paladins, for how could a man be truly loyal to the king, if his loyalties also belonged to the church, to a god? He distanced from themselves again and again, until one day he made a final decision.
"You dare not exile us." - said Edward defiantly. - "The people will not stand for it."
"The people?" - the king asked. - "Fine - let us hear what the people decide."

But the common folk had short memory - under the new king they were well fed and clothed, and they saw no need for sir Edward's shining sword in the era of prosperity and peace.
"We don't want you!" - the crowd yelled, as sir Edward left in disgrace, his face grey with doubt and sadness.

He has no liege now, his armor lost it's shine, his shield was bare, but he still presses on - for in so many other places, people still crave for justice to be done.

Jimmy "Studs" Akiyama was not born on the mean streets, as he might try to have you believe, but he certainly knows them well enough. His family lost everything in the last economic implosion and he was left on the streets after what had been a cushy upbringing. Thankfully, a sharp mind and a fondness for violent VR-games had left Jimmy with just enough skills to scratch by. Originally unaccepted in the underworld, he instead marketed himself to wageslaves with his signature leather jacket gimmick. Despite tacky exterior and aloof demeanor, Jimmy is a veteran mercenary and bounty hunter, and has since earned the respect of his fellow criminals. Even if he's never been able to shake a fondness for the awful clothes.

>>49351285

First Mate Stevey Towers, of the Craven Kraken. He grew up on hard times with his father leaving his family and Stevey ending up on the dock. Not too long though Cap'n Mac and his crew adopted Stevey as a cabin boy. He mopped the deck, vigorously scoured the cutlery and always made sure Cap'n Mac's sword shined like a jewel.

Years down the line, Mac is older and a bit more cautious in their line of work. Less pirating, more escorts, etc. Most of the blokes complained until one escort mission went horribly awry. They're in the Swirling Narrow with cliffs pressed on both sides, the toughest bit of water in many leagues. Little did they know though that the ship being escorted had a lady of nobility fleeing the country.

From the cliffs, they were assaulted. Rocks, bows, barrels of pitch. But after the initial assault, they started descending in order to extract the Lady. Stevey grabbed a long hook used for docking and stood on deck, bellowing on the top of his lungs. Every man who came onto that ship caught a shot from Stevey one way or another. Cap'n Mac personally stood guard with the lady while the boat was swarmed and lucky he did.

After about an hour of assault, the Kraken was out of the narrow and Stevey stood there, bloody, gaunt, and nearly dead. But stood there he did, on top a pile of dead friends and foes. From that day on, Stevey was First Mate Stevey Towers.

Excrutia Craven saw potential in her and made her the Craven family's champion. Ax set herself apart from other champions by refusing the sedimentary lifestyle of training and study that most champion's follow by demanding to be placed on the battlefield for she feels that other warriors deserve the same chance she had to demonstrate their power against a worthy opponent.

Headgames is a horse with the appearance of many others. Brown hair and a main brushed over to its right side. However woe be to the rider of this wicked beast. For any who mount Headgames is trapped by its wicked enchantment and become its thrall. As innocuous as it appears, the creature has no problem placing itself among armies or in royal stables for it is quite the fine horse often needing only a small cleaning to be majestic. However once it finds a rider, soon both shall disappear. It has been said that whole noble families have been carried off by Headgames, one after the other. After all, who would think a horse to be the master of man?

>>49350263

I really like the focus on his appearance, giving a strong sense of image. Though I do find it strange that he hides his face despite having a head on fire. Maybe it now bears a mark of his evil master so he hides it? Or maybe he doesn't want to see what he once was and that would break the spell.

>>49349706

Ganaelle Corner, former Princess to the house of her name.

She was 12 when the barbarian hordes came to her small duchy. It had been decades since the hordes were last seen and a period of tranquility drifted over the small duchy nestled in a pleasant green valley.

They came in endless droves, throwing themselves against the walls with reckless abandon. Peace time had left the castle's small in number and inadequate in training.

The Duke slain, the Duchess killed when she resisted, and Ganaelle taken as a slave.

She fought her captors even as they drug her back to their camp. Deemed to be too combative to be a simple pleasure slave, Ganaelle was cast with the rest of the workers the barbarians used.

She grew up, she learned their language and ways, she survived. Eventually finding her way into the pit fights the tribes loved, Ganaelle quickly became adept with the horde's weapons and techniques.

One fateful day, a detachment of troops from a nearby province raided the horde's camp. While they weren't routed, Ganaelle used this opportunity to escape along with a handful of other slaves, some of them surviving children from the raid years ago.

While her Duchy was long gone, forsaken and absorbed by another Duke, she had their blessing. Outfitted with arms, armor, and soldiers, Ganaelle leads small raiding parties of her own against the hordes using her knowledge of the horde's ways.

Only time will tell when her thirst for revenge is slaked.

>>49353525

That's like daring someone to drink a glass of purified water.

>>49353525
Rich, Yakuza enthusiast, Japanese style "Fratboy".

Was captain of soccer team in highschool and got okay grades. Ended up becoming a car salesman after inheriting his father's Honda dealership and has a loving wife and 3 kids; one of whom is studying medicine in Germany, and another whom is going to a boarding school in America.

Getting older, getting tired, and getting terribly, terribly bored, he is one day surprised by a young Italian-speaking woman who assures him he will be in the possession of a lot of money soon.

When he returns home after work one day, he finds out his wife is missing, as well as his youngest daughter, and there is no possible way for him to reach his two sons over seas.

All his family photos have gone missing, and every ounce of evidence that he's had of his family is gone without a trace. The only thing left he has of his past life are two ties (both of which were given to him for father's day), and a small, wooden sailboat that he once made for his second oldest son.

Upon receiving a statement from his bank account, it appears nearly 1 million dollars (give or take 21 cents) has mysteriously been deposited within his account and he now owns a beach house in a small Greek villa.

Determined to find his family, he sets out to use his newfound fortune to save his family and uncover this bizarre scheme he's been so suddenly thrust into; occasionally with the help of his old friends.

In a story of heartbreak, love, loss, and betrayal; you'll sing, dance, and cry in Yokohiro's classical masterpiece "A Father's Love For His Midlife Crisis".
