× General Information
Name: Zane White Gender: Male Age: 11 Height: 4'11" Weight: 100 lbs Species: Human Appearance: Zane is a kid, so obviously he's short. A look of disinterest is what most often appears to be on his face. His hair is black in color, mid-neck length at the furthest back, and is rarely tidied up at all, instead having oddly thick frizz. His normal outfit consists of a blue-grey hoody over a black tank top, and a pair of black track shorts with slightly intricate white designs. Along with these, he usually wears black sneakers with light blue shoelaces. The most notable feature about him is the right side of his face having a perfectly vertical scar right through the eye, stopped just short his hairline and jawline. His eyes are a dark azure color. Zane's aura is tufts blue interior with an odd shift to cerulean with no subtlety at a certain distance away from him.

Background
Birthday: 6/6 Personality: Zane is a kid who takes little interest in the everyday tasks he's faced with. He's wildly talented in a wide multitude of subjects, and well versed in just about anything. If it's challenging to someone, he's probably tried it and it was neither challenging nor entertaining to him. He wants at least one of these to be a factor in any task he performs, and one would be shocked by how rare either shows up for him.
One of the more interesting things he can do is socialize, it's like a game, he plays his cards where he can and checks out the result. An infinite number of people in the world with an infinite number of combinations of words and actions could lead to an exponentially infinite variety of events he could have with any number of people at any point in time. It's truly interesting, though hardly considered challenging. He's definitely a pragmatist when it comes to socializing, he'll use any and all advantages he has in order to achieve his goal.
This is an even bigger issue when it comes to everything. He doesn't play games with anything that he does in order to make it interesting. He tears right through any task he's given. He's not afraid to be thought of as superior, in fact, he prefers that it keeps that way. Normal people have always complimented him on his talents, until they would eventually come to fear him. Zane sticks to a goal and does not deviate from it in the slightest. There's never anything else he needs to know, and he seems to come out just fine.
Zane's one weakness is that he's not in touch with his humanity. Ever since he was thought of as a monster and run out of his hometown, he considered it, and figured that the best mindset for himself was one of a predator, the tip of the food chain. He doesn't ask for help, he only helps when it will benefit himself more than someone else, he'll throw people into harms way if it's effective. However, one thing he will not do, is waste resources.
Now this is not to say he's suddenly a murderer. No, murdering is wasting potential beneficial alliances. He'd never burn down a village, and most certainly he won't lay waste to a whole populace. He's got more class than that. Zane is an honorable demon, his goals are entirely based in self interest, but he'll never just kill wantonly, and he most certainly will never waste resources. He'd destroy a castle, after he's gotten everyone to evacuate first. He'd sacrifice a whole army for his goals, but he'd also sacrifice himself if it came to it.
Killing an enemy or someone who has failed him is just generally a waste of resources, and heck, the simple act of direct forgiveness can be just as powerful as an act of heinous cruelty in inspiring fear and loyalty! Plus he's a fan of the though that defeat means friendship, so he can add his enemies to his roster of friends. He's not above apologizing to families for causing strife, but he'll never take back anything he's done.
As a note, Zane is far above the impulse to do petty and simply outright malevolent things, he's only interested in anything that achieves his goals. Heck sometimes his methods make him look more like a hero than a monster, as he would save the someone's life simply because wasted deaths can be avoided. But never think of him as soft, as the moment you think he won't kill you, is the moment you underestimated beyond any semblance of recovery.
Origin: Zane was born into a family of regular folks, in a regular village in the middle of nowhere. At 3 weeks of age he was already crawling, at 6 weeks he could walk clumsily, and at 1 year of age he had no issues with movement. His life was a long streak of being insanely talented at everything he'd ever do. By 3 years old he was capable of speaking at conversational level, and comprehending words his parents couldn't quite grasp. He was finished with school around age 8, graduating with honors beyond honors, making local teachers feel bad about themselves almost monthly.
He found that while social interactions were definitely interesting, just about anything else in life was completely easy and uninteresting. At least with people you could play with their emotions and stuff, see what happens. Because of his talents, people would eventually see him as a monster, instead of the pride of their town. The form of an angry mob would approach him one day, and despite his best talent, he didn't feel it was right to kill them all. After all, he was so much closer to a monster in terms of everything, he even scared himself sometimes.
So Zane was run out of his own home at age 9, and he would take to the lonely life of an adventurer quite well. Most creatures he fought were felled quite quickly, he had a meal almost every day without so much as legitimately doing what someone would call hunting. His presence in the forest attracted all sorts of beasts looking to become alpha male, and he was the strongest thing there, obviously. So he fought them and killed them. Murder wasn't all that hard, it was pretty boring, actually.
Soon though, came something unexpected. When he was around 10 years of age, he would bump into a man in the forest. This man would see that Zane was bored with life by the lifeless expression, and so he simply had to ask what was wrong. Zane would and inform the man that he was searching for something. This man inquired what it was a kid like him would seek. Zane bluntly answered, walking away, "A kid like myself, only seeks something interesting to do."
And so for a short while he had a companion, who simply followed him around and asked him questions. Like a flea. The young one was a kind enough person to let the guy eat what he killed, but the man would refuse. After a few weeks without eating, Zane simply couldn't let the man continue not eating. So it came down to a fight, Zane would combat the man, and if he won the man would eat a whole deer! The man didn't set losing conditions, and accepted. The fight lasted 5 seconds, and was the most intense fight Zane had ever even imagined.
The young ace would find himself waking up hours later, next to a mirror and a note. The note read, "Sorry for going overboard. I'll eat a deer on my way home." Zane would grab the mirror for a moment, and peered upon it, dropping it almost immediately. He had attained a wicked scar up the right side of his face. The note continued on the back, "P.S.: There's many strong people like me in this world. Go meet some, why don't you?" This was what inspired Zane, he thought that if there were many strong people like that person, there must have also been many challenges that only they could overcome in this world! And so he could find things that would be interesting, challenges for a kid like himself. Thread History:

[46/46]Techniques Technique Name: Athletic Mastery Technique Category: Athleticism Type: Supportive Range: Self Technique Rank: 4 Description: Zane is masterfully talented in all forms of sports and their variants. He's capable of performing in athletic competitions on par with adults in terms of skill and strategy. He knows all the sports terminology that he'd need to know as both a fan and a player of any sport, and knows from first hand experience which strategies beat what.
Technique Name: Cold Blood: The Art of Killing Technique Category: Fighting Style Type: Offensive Range: Close Technique Rank: 8 Description: A martial art that Zane has developed for the sake of defeating his opponent with as much efficiency as possible, designed to not waste effort in any sense of the word. This fighting style doesn't have a fighting stance so much as a posture, generally arms at the side, with shoulders puffed out a bit, fingers curled to a claw-like position. This is to maximize the intimidation factor of his style, but there is no further warning with it. In combat, he will only move his body as necessary to dodge and block attack, wasting little energy on defense beyond the basic parrying and dodging.
The offensive aspect of this martial art is the key feature, using a level of pragmatism and experience that you'd expect from someone like Zane. This martial art will make use of wounds, blind spots, and joint attacks in order to bring stronger foes to his level if he needs to, though rarely if he doesn't. This martial art is one that conforms to each opponent, in order to maximize his odds of surviving the encounter and minimize those of his foes. The most keen ability he's got as a fighter is his eyes for vital spots, and how just about any opening is potentially lethal when dealing with a practitioner of this martial art. A multitude of finishing moves have been developed, but most commonly used against people and some animals is the Neck Snap, which uses torque generated by the resistance to it happening against his arm strength. Thusly such a move can be resisted by simply going with the flow, though don't brag about being able to avoid it like that, as this martial art has a multitude of ways to trick an opponent into giving him the torque he needs.
This style also supports a vast array of other finishing moves, though they're mostly only applicable when a weapon is in hand. In fact, it's safe to say this martial art is the most focused on killing, with nothing on par with it on its own. This martial art is true and tested, using nothing more than experience and research to make killing someone or something a more doable task. Mercy is not in this style's description for a reason; if Zane wishes to take up this style against someone, most certainly there will be a victim.
However: There is an optional thing that he has proven capable of doing thanks to developing this martial art. It's basically the opposite of Cold Blood. It's the opposite of killing, it's not killing. You see, from a long experience of learning how to kill his foes with maximum efficiency, he's mastered the ability to do just the opposite, and fight with absolute non-lethality. This focuses more on nerve clusters to cause pain, and can even be used with a weapon in hand. He is as fully capable of not killing someone as he is killing someone, purposely missing vital organs by such tiny margins as centimeters, and even performing attacks that look like killing blows without actually killing someone. This is a merciful martial art with no name, born from the darkness that murder promotes. He cannot teach one without the other, though he could potentially teach this martial art to others.
Technique Name: Sense Mastery: Hearing Technique Category: Sensory Type: Supportive Range: Long Technique Rank: 18 Description: Zane has a very interesting ability, in that his ears are far superior to the likes of humans. He can hear a coin drop from 10 km of bustling city away if he wanted to, and can even hear people talking through a soundproofed door. His hearing range is also amazing, capable of hearing the lowest possible frequencies of sounds, and the highest possible frequencies, as naturally as hearing a voice. He can hear heartbeats, breathing, and in particularly quiet circumstances, the flow of his and his opponent's blood. Most music is lost on him, as a downside, unless it is played with perfection beyond human ability. His ears are more durable than human ears as well, so he can listen to incredibly loud noises without real issues asides personal preferences.
Technique Name: Insulation Technique Category: Immunities Type: Supportive Range: Self Technique Rank: 16 Description: Noteable about Zane is a very well insulated body, his skin acting as a natural repellent to electricity. He is immune to electricity at voltages up to and including 1,000,000 Volts. This does not mean that he is immune to the pain from such thing, but he does not take damage from anything equally to or not as bad as that value.
