Personality

Ghost Wake embodies the ideal warrior in many ways. He is loyal, honorable and totally dedicated to his mission. He never goes back on an oath. Ever. He's cool, calm and possesses a deductive reasoning that puts him among the top detectives in the world. Always dedicated to his objective, there is little that can stand between him and his goals.

Now, this leads to an interesting dilemma. While completely dedicated to the safeguarding of the world and the 'normals' who do not possess the abilities to protect themselves, Ghost has almost no ability to relate to the people he protects. Its a source of both fascination and frustration for the reserved hero. he longs to understand and live a normal life but knows he will never get that opportunity and even if he did, his unwavering code of honor would never let him step down from his position.

== Dual Blades ==

Ghost Wake is a master swordsman, training in the Path of Two Shadows, the fighting style taught only by the Ghostwalker ninja clan.

== Super Reflexes/ninjitsu ==

Trained from birth in the ancient martial arts of Iga-ryu ninjutsu, Ghost Wake has incredible reflexes that seem to defy human ability. His constant training has dialed this in to the point that in many situations when his conscious body shuts down his limbs will react on muscle-memory alone.

== Leadership ==

Kichijiro has worked as a team leader many times in his life and that experience has given him advanced understanding of defensive team tactics.

== Stealth/ninjitsu ==

Ghost Wake has been granted the ability to appear as if invisible. This talent has never been spread outside of his secluded village and is unexplainable by modern science and stealth techniques which can only begin to mimic his people's ancient arts.

== Teleportation ==

On a mission to track down a multidimensional assassin, Kichi was displaced from normal time/space for a period of four months. This was caused by a miscalculation in the calibration of the assassin's teleportation suit. Since the mishap, Ghost Wake has been tinkering with the suit to increase the safety and reliability of the equiment while reducing the required hardware. What his tinkering has produced is an overlay woven into ghost's tactical harness that allows him to teleport short distances (little more than a hundred yards or so at a time) by phase shifting to an artificial pocket dimension and back in rapid succession.

== Gadgets ==

Ghost Wake has access to a wide variety of crime solving equipment that range from simple lockpicking tools to state of the art hacking devices. Kichi has a tool for almost any situation he may come across in his travels.

Character History

Ghost Wake was born in a secluded mountain village outside what is known today as Ueno City, Japan. Born the second son of the clan's daimyo, Ghost Wake was trained by the greatest swordsmen and field operatives of his people.

Most of this time is shrouded in mystery and there is likely little the world will ever find out about this formative time in the hero's history. All that is known is what he will say of his training: "It was a hard life living the life I had among my clan but it made me the man I am today and for that, I thank them."

Shortly after the Rikti War, disaster struck the Ghostwalker ninja. Ghost Wake's older brother, Ghost Watcher, was reported killed in action. The elder Ghostwalker had been sent to the American city of Paragon to investigate the villainous organization known as Arachnos and assess any possible threat they posed to the clan. Believing Arachnos was responsible for his death, a debt of vengeance was issued and Ghost Wake was sent, both to confirm that Arachnos was indeed responsible for his brother's murder and to bring those responsible to the clan to face judgment.

This is a tale of vengeance and honor, one only spoken of in hushed tones and told in rumor. This is a tale of Ghosts.

Enemies

  • Death Wake: The Praetorian Earth version of Ghost Wake and his greatest enemy. He is the dark reflection of Ghost and despite what Kichi would wish to admit: His superior on martial combat. He considers himself to be the greatest Kichijiro Sakumaa in all the multiverse and has enslaved many of the other universes' Ghost Wakes or outright killed them off. He is fond of torturing Ghost and totes the fact that he is Ghost wake's better with a simple line: "No Ghost can exist without Death."
  • The Criminal Mind: A mid ranking criminal who induces realistic hallucinations. Known to derive his power from a psychostimulant that has hyper advanced aging properties which causes The Criminal Mind to appear in his late fifties despite only being in his late twenties.
  • Gekoron: A former Crey scientist mutated into a giant ebon skinned lizard capable of advanced regeneration and releasing neurotoxins via physical contact.
  • Two Talons: Leader of the Red Talon ninja clan, dedicated to the awakening of the Crimson Dragon, an ancient evil spirit hellbent on ruling over all humanity.
  • Crimson Haiku: A Japanese supervillain known to produce magical effects by reciting haiku poetry.

Allies

Trivia

  • Ghost Wake is known to his friends as Kichijiro Sakumaa, the name he is registered to in Herocorp databases. Though, Ghost Wake doesn't actually have a birth name, only a code name and any name he may wish to take while in the field to further his mission. Kichijiro Sakumaa is completely made up.
  • Ghost Wake hasn't shared that detail with his friends yet.
  • Ghost Wake's family has protected Japan from threats for thousands of years and that remains his primary mission to this day.
  • Ghost Wake is well received among the Midnight Squad and has extensive access to most of it's impressive magical resources.
  • Ghost Wake is an Otaku. he WILL talk your ear off about anime.
  • Ghost particularly enjoys calligraphy and is rather skilled with a brush.
  • Ghost Wake loves to cosplay and has dressed up before in a costume designed after his favorite Silver Age hero: The Undying Iron Palm.
  • Ghost Wake knows how to swing dance.
  • Ghost Wake, thanks to years of mental training can project false thoughts. Psychics trying to read his mind will pick up the wrong message. Only the most experienced of telepaths (lvl 50s) can sift through the mental images and (possibly) divine the real one.
  • Ghost Wake's connection with his swords is quasi-mystical. A person can 'read' his emotional state by observing the 'magical' aura of his blades.
