The Unknown (Rank up Opponant)

Unknown

Character information

Name:The Unknown, Wanderer, Traveller, Wraith, stranger
Age: Varies
True age: Ancient
Sex: Varies
Personality: In every culture, there is a legend. A legend of a warrior who is blessed, or cursed, by the gods to walk Asmir eternally and test those who seek power. Little is decided on who or what this warrior is, only that they do not discriminate against who they fight. They travel the land, appearing to a person on the verge of a great change in their life, and give them an extra push, a helping hand, a fight unlike any. This warrior goes by many names, different in each place but no matter the difference, it is the same Warrior. At least, if you believe in legends.

Appearance

Form of Many: The Traveller’s form shifts to match the expectations of its opponent. Male or female, height, weight, race, everyone sees something different which is possibly why it's so hard to prove that the Traveller is real. However one thing stays true no matter the form, The traveller’s eyes that glow pure white, and a unique feeling of Otherness to them.

Fighting style

General Fighting Tactics: The Unknown has a tendency to mirror or copy an opponent's fighting style, however this is not simple mimicry but a showing of skill and potentially decades of training. The unknown will throw in its own unique tactics during combat, attempting to catch the opponent off guard with a sudden shift in style. The unknown has many strengths, and while it may not appear to have weaknesses the important thing to note is that it is not infallible. It can be bested in combat.

Combat Stats-

The Stranger’s stats are Average in all instances except when they begin to fight. Their stats will change to match that of their opponent after one post. The stranger’s Stamina and Magical power appear to be limitless, however fights generally don’t last long enough to find out.

Equipment

Primary Equipment
Name: Shifting Steel
Type: Magical item
Description: appearing as an unadorned glove on it’s left hand, shifting steel is a weapon capable of taking on the form of any weapon in existence. Usually shifting steel will take on the type of an opponent's weapon, and may or may not match its appearance. Shifting steel does not have any specific weapon tricks and will not copy them from an opponent's weapon. If They so desire, the stranger can change the weapon to a different weapon if it suits. It can also split into two and become multiple weapons or a sword and shield and so on.

Primary Equipment
Name: Shifting skin
Type: Magical item
Description: A basic harness, shifting skin can change to become light, medium or heavy armor depending on the situation. The armor is always unadorned but matches the style of armor the opponent is wearing, or from their culture, so facing a heanta in heavy plate, it would match the traits of heanta heavy plate armor.

Name: Heroic Stat Boost
Type: Support
Damage Category:
Description: An ability that adds +2 to all of the stranger’s stats on top of their other stat buffs from tier, baring magical power and stamina, at the cost of losing access to abilities and magical power.

Name: Tempest Breath
Type: Offense
Damage Category: Average
Description: A breath attack similar to the asentari’s most formidable trait, Tempest breath is unique in that it consists of all four elements at once. A swirling cone of fire, cold, wind and lightning damage, it makes for a rather chaotic display of destruction.

Cooldown: 3 posts

Name: Tempest blade
Type: support
Damage Category: N/A
Description: The Unknown coats their blade in an aura of fire, ice, stone and electricity. The exact effect of tempest blade is random, apart from the fact that The stone aspect doubles the weight of the weapon. On contact, the blade has a chance of freezing the area around it with ice that requires average strength to break, Ignites the area around it and deals very weak damage, or surges the area with electricity causing twitching in the victim. The effect is completely Random. (when someone is hit, they choose how to be effected.)

Name: Regeneration
Type: Racial
Damage Category: N/A
Description: The Unknown shares possibly the heanta’s greatest strength, the ability to Regenerate from wounds at a much higher speed than normally possible. Infact, the Unknowns ability to regenerate seems to far exceed heanta’s, as they have been banished by fatal blows but survived. Even so, during battle their ability to regenerate is on the same level as a heanta’s.
