Phantom Strider
From Unofficial Handbook of the Virtue Universe
•Personality
Damien is very business like, and believes highly in professionalism. He is brutally honest, and isn't afraid to tell someone off if they deserve it. However, he does in fact have a more humorous and carefree side that only people he knows and trusts have seen. When Damien shows his true self, he actually is an alright guy who can crack an occasionally funny joke.
•Appearance
Damien's most common outfit can best be described as "formally casual." He wears a black uniform jacket that's always opened, with a white dress shirt underneath, complemented by a red tie. His pants are black with a red flame pattern around the cuffs, and he has a relatively simple pair of sneakers. In addition to that, he is never seen without his red tinted sunglasses that no one has seen him without.
•Powers
Dark Melee - Damien's dark melee comes from his ability to "tap" in to the spirit world. Using this, he summons up the chaotic emotions of said spirits and converts them in to powerful energy based attacks. It has been rumored his powers come from the amulet he carries around with him, however this hasn't been proven.
Super Speed/Reflexes - According to Damien he inherited his super speed and reflexes from his father, who himself was a mutant. These powers allow him to run much faster than most of the best Olympic sprinters, dodge bullets and melee attacks, and usually react faster to just about anything.
•History
I'll fill this out sometime, really.
•Affiliations
All information here is from the character's point of view, and is out of character information. None of this information would be known to any character other than Phantom Strider unless he specifically told someone else.
Adversity Solutions Incorporated - This organization is led by the mysterious, powerful Adam Fairfield. Damien was brought in to the organization by a previous co-worker, Operative Lancaster. There are a few individuals in the group Damien doesn't particularly like, but the pay is good, so he's pleased.
•Allies
Quicktime - Ryan, the first man that Damien has met that can actually keep up with him. Damien considers Ryan and himself partners. He's managed to look past the negative parts of Ryan's personality and developed a soft spot for him, of course everyone else just thinks that Damien hates him.
Operative Lancaster - Lance, the only homosexual that actively hits on other men that Damien manages to put up with. Damien respects Lancaster's combat abilities and admires the albino's leadership skills.
Greenlee - Greenlee, Damien's not exactly who this woman is, but what he does know is she's a skilled assassin, possibly as deadly as himself.
Advent Assassin - Danial, Damien has met Danny very recently and already has a massive amount of respect for the man. Danial is damn good at what he goes according to Damien, and because of such Damien asked Danny to train him. Danial accepted.
Trickblade - Emily, another woman in ASI that Damien knows next to nothing about. He does know that she trained under Danny at one time in her life, and on the other hand she hates Tarasova, so she's alright in his book.
Saito Tsukashin - Saito, Damien once thought this man was terrible at what he does, and was actually plotting to kill him. However, recently he has learned that Saito can be a cruel and calculating assassin, and is worthy of respect.
•Acquaintances
Adam Fairfield - Fairfield, this guy is Damien's boss. He listens to him, does the work, and gets paid. It's a healthy relationship, don't try and fix something that isn't broken.
