[b][i][u][url=http://example.com]Updated Biography[/url][/u][/i][/b] [b]Name:[/b] Ike; nothing more, nothing less. [b]Age:[/b] 13 years, 28 days. [b]Race/Ethnicity:[/b] Human, Caucasian. [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Appearance:[/b] Ike stands at a decently tall height for his age; 5'5", while weighing about 115 lbs. He has a pale skin complexion, pale blond hair, and icy blue eyes. His facial structure is more angular, and his body type is mesomorphic. Even for his young age, Ike has considerable strength, speed, and pain tolerance; nothing to match that of an adult in their prime, but definitely enough to set him apart from others his age. On his right forearm, Ike bears a black brand–a Mark. Upon activation, it glows crimson. [b]Armor:[/b] Ike only owns one set of clothing; a torn up, white t-shirt, along with dirty, torn black sweatpants. He wears no shoes, as well as no socks. [b]Weaponry:[/b] What kind of 13 year old walks around with guns? Please. Ike is in ownership of a single [url=https://images.knifecenter.com/knifecenter/united/images/UCGH5026a.jpg]bowie knife[/url], its steel blade ten inches in length. While it cannot be considered his, Ike is also able to summon [url=http://orig01.deviantart.net/4ad0/f/2010/118/7/a/weapon_118_by_random223.jpg]this sword[/url], a blade belonging to Cain. Designated "the First Blade", it is made of leather and bone, yet is indestructible, and is forever in pristine condition, needing no maintenance. It also has the ability to drain the energy of others in combat, and transfer this energy to the wielder. The drained energy is used to either heal wounds, or increase the wielder's overall attributes–such as strength, speed, stamina, et cetera. When combat has ended, the blade spends what it must to heal the remainder of the wielder's wounds, then transfers the rest of the energy to Cain. Ike earned the ability to summon the First Blade through being gifted the Mark of Cain from Cain himself. [b]Abilities:[/b] Ike was branded with the Mark of Cain from Cain himself, giving him a few minor edges in combat. First off, he is able to summon the First Blade to utilize in combat. Second, the Mark passively increases Ike's base stats; his strength, speed, durability, et cetera. It's not by much, just enough to give him an edge, and the element of surprise should an opponent underestimate him due to his age. And finally, the Mark gives Ike the ability to summon Cain himself, should Ike get himself into extremely deep shit. Hopefully, Ike would never need to use this, but it is noteworthy that he has the capability to do so. [b]Biography:[/b] Ask him. He's only 13, after all.
