Description
There have been legends of those who gave their lives to save thousands. There are stories of great heroes that led their people to victory. There are those who have been gifted with special abilities and chose to follow in these heroes' footsteps. This person isn't one of them.
Joseph Reldin is a dreamer and always has been since he was a young boy. He grew up like most did. He was...normal, or at least to those without abilities considered him to be. The young boy had a great interest in the Japanese culture, loving to watch the strange and different style of animation we know as anime. The young child developed a love for sword fighting. He paid close attention in the style of fighting used in movies that involved any form of martial arts and sword fighting techniques. Eventually the child was enrolled in several martial arts classes at the age of 11 and learned to fence at the age of 14.
Now at the age of 21, Reldin lives on his own. At one point he was attending the Steel Canyon University. He attended for two semesters before deciding to drop out from school. Why exactly? He was simply uninterested. Although he was working on a degree in Creative Writing, something he enjoyed, he couldn't focus on school. It wasn't that he was a horrible student. On the contrary. Reldin was an above average student, despite him being a procrastinator. There was a void in his life that simply couldn't be filled.
Personality
As mentioned: Reldin is a dreamer. Since he was young he had always wanted to be someone important, someone with super powers. More importantly. He wanted to be a super powered person who used a sword.
Reldin is a bit shy. He usually doesn't approach strangers since he's afraid he might tick off the wrong person. He's a bit awkward, especially when talking to women. He has a habit of staring at others and most of the time never notices he's doing it. Usually, he is calm, but is easily wound up. He gets nervous easily, especially when placed in awkward situations. Reldin is a bit agoraphobic when around people. Usually when there's too many people around him in a small radius, his phobia begins to get the best of him.
On the outside, he tries to act tough, especially when a conflict arises with him being involved. His overconfidence usually causes him to try and impress others with his so called "amazing and superior sword skills." But deep down inside, he is afraid. Despite him acting tough before others, he is absolutely terrified, especially since many of those he faces are people with special powers and abilities.
Abilities
Katana
Reldin was self taught and trained himself in becoming a sword fighter. He carries with him his legacy katana he named Tenkai. The blade he carries is light and durable. A gift given to him by his grandfather before his passing.
Regeneration

However, he does have increased stamina, allowing him start a relentless attack of sword slashes without becoming fatigued.

One fateful day, Reldin was approached by the Goddess Altana. Though, the day started off like any other day.
