You see, unless you already commanded a lot of respect on the street, there was no respect for some flabby, misshapen fool. So Casimiro keeps himself in sculpted shape through basic, rough exercises. His already impressive height of 6 feet is only complemented by the toned muscles and sharp features. So yeah, line up ladies for some beef cake! Though his skin is kind of a different matter. His skin is dark and taut with his Peruvian heritage and the time he spends outside. But there are.... Imperfections. Casimiro's gang life has left him with scars from fights and jumpings of various kinds, but some women are into that kind of thing and it commands a lot of respect back on the streets. Various stab, slashing, and bullet scars adorn his torso, though his prominent scar is the one vertical slash over his right eye. Speaking of eyes, Casimiro's are a piercing and exotic gold color that almost screams with his hidden insanity. His face is young and smooth, though a little roughed up and kind of intimidating when he puts on his menacing smile. As for hair, its dark like the rest of him. Long and shaggy, it hangs down to his neck and it usually stylishly unkempt. But with some preparation, he can smooth it out and make it presentable for anyone who demands it. Casimiro's wardrobe is an eclectic collection of hip hop wear and traditional Peruvian clothes. On the more modern side are his jeans, which hang a little low on his lips, and various shirts and hoodies that can either come in muscle-defining tight or over-sized baggy, complemented by hats, bandannas, and decorative chains. On the other end of the spectrum are loose robes and tunics that are best in the warmer climates. Personality In a word, Fake. In another, a Psychopath. Casimiro, if he were to come under the scrutiny of a psychologist or police investigator, would most certainly be slapped with the label "Psychopath". But psychopaths are not the screaming, cackling, borderline insane caricature that appear in cartoons and movies. A psychopath is actually almost the polar opposite of the stereotype. A person with psychopathic tendencies is probably the most charming and extroverted person you will ever meet, the kind of person anyone would get along with, and it is not exactly just a show... At first glance, and even with further interaction, Casimiro is a witty, fun-loving person that is easy to get along with. Talk to him and he could talk and joke forever with you. If you do not talk to him, he will try and spark up a conversation with you. He will genuinely seem interested in your life and actively engages people with stimulating talk, which definitely comes in handy with talking with the ladies. Yes, Casimiro is a flirt. Not exactly a playboy, maybe, but he can hold a girl's attention for quite awhile since he likes to hear about other people and tend to not talk about himself. When he does talk about himself, he tends to have funny and interesting stories about him and his buddies or about his eccentric home life. However his weakness with being so sociable is his avoidance to talk about how he feels or in trying to do anything other than just have fun. Casimiro avoids talking about his feelings and emotions and true inner thoughts, which will be explained later, and has still yet to figure out a way to gracefully dodge that question. As for connecting emotionally with any person, that's nearly impossible. Casimiro is completely incapable of honestly consoling or getting intimate with anyone, though he can fake it quite well. Now, the reason for all that is because of Casimiro's psychopathy. One of the defining characteristics of a psychopath is their inability to just care. You see, a psychopath just lacks that fundamental ability to emotionally care about anyone else or really take into account their feelings. That is what has allowed the greatest killers in history to be what they were. They just did not care, and Casimiro is just the same. On the inside, he is a self-centered, self-serving, arrogant, easily annoyed and judges people mercilessly. Of course, this is all on the inside. No one ever sees the true Casimiro, unless they are one of his victims. History: Casimiro's life began in the ghetto's in some nondescript town in Peru. Yeah, right off the bat his life was pretty horrible. Abusive parents, whenever they were actually around. What the abuse was exactly, he could never tell out, either from repression or he honestly cannot remember. Casimiro had suffered a concussion at an early age from.... Something, possibly his father or the rough kids he ended up hanging out with. Almost as soon as he could walk and talk, Casimiro was indulging in violence. Squirrels, frogs, birds, or any other small animal that was unlucky enough to get within his grasp. They all died in increasingly gory and extravagant ways. His induction into one of the local gangs did not help that fact all. Now, instead of mutilating animals, Casimiro was mutilating and murdering other people. He quickly rose though his gang as one of the most violent and... Well.... Crazy members they had ever had. As he grew up, his tendency to be violent became more and more refined and subtle. He was less about splattering blood everywhere and more about luring his victims with smooth talk and a charming persona to a quiet, personal end. Casimiro had become a hunter, using himself as bait. When Evos Dawn rolled around, Casimiro and the gand changed their focus of torment. Now they almost exclusively beat up and worked against the new Evos, especially those with animal traits. The Evos could use their powers, but they were untrained and the gang had numbers. Casimiro put some some serious effort into "taking care" of those animal-hybrids. This put the young Casimiro in the spotlight for a stranger that began watching the boy do his deeds. After sufficiently watching the boy, the stranger approached Casimiro and proposed a little something. That little something was an apprenticeship, one that Casimiro at first refused. But when the stranger showed off what he could do, Casimiro jumped at the chance to be like the man. During those years of training, Casimiro never learned the name of his teacher, though he did find out lots about him. The man himself had been trained by some kind of higher power, either an individual or a group, but whatever that power was, it must have been some kind of master hunter race. The man himself had access to amazing technology, some of which he shared with Casimiro, and used it whenever possible to give him an upperhand over their targets. The man, also, had contempt for the Evos and animal-people, or rather, the man felt that everyone was below him and and could only be good as his prey. Casimiro definitely liked him. Under the man's teachings, Casimiro killed, mutilated, and abused many Evos and animal-people. It had gotten to the point where he started attracting the attention of the authorities. Not wanting to lose his star apprentice, the man sent Casimiro to the Academym complete with a false history and background. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ School: Avalon Designation/Primary Magic Principle: Knife Thrower/Stealth-based Predator Special Abilities: Cloaking: The mainstay of the Yautja hunter culture, Casimiro is equipped with a variant of the Yautja cloaking device. Once activated, Casimiro becomes completely invisible to normal vision and undetectable by sight alone. This effects his body, any clothing and armor he is wearing, and any equipment and armaments he is carrying or holding. Other objects cannot be cloaked unless they are specially modified to work with the cloak. Transition from full visibility to full invisibility takes one second, and three seconds in the other direction. The cloak is short circuited by direct contact with water, causing the cloak to either flicker or short out entirely depending on the amount of water. Also the cloak is only turns Casimiro invisible, meaning his body heat can still be picked up with right vision modes and the external environment still acts and reacts with him normally. Training: Knife Throwing: Casimiro's primary weapon and combat style deals with expertly throwing specially-balanced knives. By gripping the tip of the knife with his fingers, using an overhand throw, and with a flick of the wrist, he can send the right knife spinning through the air with speed and fatal accuracy. His effective range, the range in which maximum penetration in a soft target can occur, is up to thirty yards with a travel time of approximately one second. The path of travel is mostly straight, and begins to bend downward at around the twenty five yard mark. Beyond thirty yards, the ability to penetrate flesh drops significantly and the path of travels arcs down sharply. These statistics are based off Casimiro's best throw and his own personal knives. Inventory/Equipment: Throwing Knives: [Image] Casimiro's personal stash of throwing knives. Exactly ten inches long from the tip of the blade to the bottom of the handle, with the blade and handle exactly the same length. The knives are specially balanced to spin when thrown, with the axis of rotation at the exact center of the knife, where the handle and blade meet. But with the special modification by Casimiro's Master, the knife always lands tip first due to a tiny magnetic modulator embedded in the knife center. They work with his cloaking and turn invisible when he does, and can remain invisible for up to three seconds after being thrown and released.
