(I copied and pasted a lot of this directly from my character for BKT. I am a lazy, lazy man.)

Real Name: N/A
Heroic/Villainous name: Silence
Age: c. 20-30
gender: Male
power: Silence is largely considered to be the best of the best when it comes to death magic, being able to stop the heart of those with weak constitutions with a touch. He also possesses mastery of shadow magic, being able to cross distances quickly by fading into and out of shadows. To a less dramatic degree, he is also highly competent at mind manipulation magic and energy manipulation magic. What he can't do through sheer power he can often find ways to accomplish through other means.
Silence's main armament consists of two retractable blades on his wrists that are about a foot and a half long and are part of his arcane power suit. They have been sharpened by arcane energy to a blade approaching the molecular level. The blades are specially treated to handle all kinds of occult problems, including fusions of alchemical silver and cold iron. The blades are also connected to chains and can be launched at high velocity and retracted, giving Silence increased attack range. on the underside of his wrists he has a pair of high velocity dart launchers, capable of delivering a plethora of substances to hapless targets. At all times he carries two unmodified pistols for when all else fails or when the chains can't reach a target. on his power suit he carries various other weapons, such as hemisphere bombs, which are activated by bringing any two of them together to produce many destructive combinations, as well as various tools for breaking and entering, and ,in an electronic age, many means to bypass security systems.
As for skills, Silence is an expert with his two blades, striking with superhuman speed and accuracy. With the chains deployed, he can manipulate the inertia of the blades and make them do surprising and often fatal maneuvers. He is also unerringly accurate, and it is rumored that on a good day he can shoot the wings off a fly without killing it.
Silence never seems to need and sleep or sustenance, and it is unsure whether it is his power suit, arcane power, or undeniable will that is keeping him alive.
side: villain
background: No one is entirely sure of his origins, and it's not like he's been particularly forthcoming. Rumors vary wildly, ranging from his escape from a scrapped secret government black ops. program to him simply getting getting up one morning and starting killing people. His powers also remain a mystery, and all attempts to uncover the source of his arcane abilities have failed. Often violently. Wherever he came from, his appearance on the assassination market was sudden and unexpected, and he has proven a major force in it and other illegal rings and black markets. His presence in Soreh can only herald trouble and many, many corpses.
Personality: He never speaks. Not ever... so far. He follows orders orders unerringly unless they violate his personal code of honor, which he will not break under any circumstances. Once committed to a target he will pursue him or her with tireless determination, only giving up when defeat is obviously inevitable. He is efficient in form and willing to do anything to accomplish his aims.
normal dress: N/A
villainous dress: Wears a black, form fitting power suit covered with pockets and compartments filled with "tools of the trade." he always wears a large, flowing cloak. He wears a black, featureless mask except for what appears to be a respirator and two dark circles of tinted material for eyes. It looks sort of like this (minus the Nazi regalia)

That. Is. Really. REALLY. Freaky. And awesome. And is that a gun in his waistband?

I'm not sure, but it would be awesome if it was. That's not quite how I envisioned Silence's blades, but it's close enough to give me chills.

How are they close enough? They're a completely different weapon; bladed tonfas.

You misunderstand. The blades aren't close enough to the blades I envisioned to give me chills, the whole thing is close enough to Silence to give me chills, despite the difference in weaponry.

But who knows? Silence looks pretty good with those things. I might have to get him some.
