Welcome to Gaia! ::

Fangs / Claws - While not equipment strictly speaking, KB's available weapons include these natural armnaments. He is able to 'retract' them at will, reverting them to a more human appearance. Both his fangs and his claws are easily capable of tearing into flesh, even that which is supernaturally resilient.

Clothing - An extension of his being, his clothes can be hardened to rival steel in strength. This allows him to maintain full maneuverability, yet will armor into specific places on the fly. The downside of this unconventional practice is that his clothing suffers his same weaknesses while affected, becoming damaged by sunlight and bypassed by silver.

Endgame - Coupling accuracy with the ability to detect the bloodflow of a living creature KB aims an attack with his sword that misses all vitals and allows for full recovery whilst giving the appearance of a mortal blow. This technique allows him to dissuade a combatant from continued fighting, given that improper movement of the blade can cause knicked arteries or cut organs.

Unerring - KB is 100% accurate with his ranged weapons. The only way he can miss his intended target is for outside interference to become a factor ( Provided he hasn't factored it in already, such as wind ) or for the maximum range of the weapon to be exceeded.

Phantom Slash - Used in conjunction with KB's ability to use his cape as a weapon, the Phantom Slash is an attack that extends his range considerably. The force of his slashes causes a blade of force to continue in a wave pattern away from him, impacting anything in range of the attack. The maximum range of this ability is 30ft. The strength of the attack does not diminish until it has reached its maximum range, at which point it disperses harmlessly. The force of these attacks is strong enough to match the attacks that generates them.

CutCutCutCutCut!!! - This technique essentially transforms the user into a death-dealing top. The user becomes blurred in motion as they spin towards their enemy. This attack can persist for 3-4 seconds, and can be used defensively as well as offensively. The weapon of choice determines the range of the attack, though only simple patterns are capable since the weapon has to be held in one position as the user spins. While using this ability the practictioner is unable to perceive the world around them.

Energy Drain - By striking an enemy with a natural weapon KB is able to drain them of their will to live. This ability only applies to living creatures and thus has no effect on constructs or undead. The immediate effect of being struck is depression and a feeling of coldness, with consecutive strikes instilling feelings of hoplessness and dread. Repeated contact then begins to consume the life energy of the target, transfering it to the vampire and strengthening it. Desiccation of tissue and loss of function becomes evident as the soul is essentially removed from the body piece by piece.

Blood Drain - The vampiric ability to consume the blood of a target by biting them. Doing so revitalizes a vampire, giving it the strength to continue fighting and healing wounds in an amount equal to the amount of blood consumed. ( Consuming an adult entirely can heal a massive cut or gouge. )

Enhanced Strength - The strength of a vampire is considerably more than the average human being. This allows for him to use his abilities or weapons in ways disproportionate to his size and physical stature. Overall, his strength is about three times that of the average adult male.

Enhanced Speed - Though unnaturally strong, a vampire is also quick and agile. KB is no exception to this rule and is faster than the average human being. In addition he thinks faster than living creatures and is able to perceive the world around him at his rate. This allows for him to run two times as fast as an average adult male, his reflex time is cut in half, and his motions are impossibly fast for a humanoid.

Indominable - As a vampire KB is not a natural being and his body does not follow the same basic rules as those of a living creature. Listed are the rules of his disposition, both its weaknesses and its strengths.

DR: The flesh of a vampire is resilient and resists most attacks. Common injuries like scratches or pinpricks aren't capable of piercing a vampire's skin. Even a weapon like a knife is incapable of injuring a vampire unless it is used with great force. This damage reduction does not apply to silver or magical weapons, which affect vampire flesh normally.

Undead: The body of a vampire is run by Negative Energy, and as such does not require sleep, water, or food. Additionally, it is resistant to varying temperatures, with a noteworthy resistance to cold and electricity. A vampire cannot be frozen to death or overheat, though they can be burned or frozen solid ( though freezing would be considerably harder ). A vampire's body also regenerates itself through the consumption of blood or the life force of a living creature. On the flipside, a vampire is disorientated and destroyed by continual exposure to natural sunlight. A vampire cannot enter naturally running water or it will quickly be killed. A vampire is immediately slain if its heart is pierced, though it will revive when the object is removed.

Additionally, the body does not require the function of muscles or tendons. The nervous system is dead as well, so it becomes moot. A vampire cannot be knocked out or disabled by pressure points. It is simply the will of the creature alone that motivates it, which permits its continued activity even when if reduced to tatters.

Ghoul Maw - The magical ability to morph one's mouth beyond its natural dimensions. KB uses this ability to replace all his default teeth with fangs, to increase the size of his bite to otherwise impossible measurements, and to produce gut-wrenching fear in his enemies. While employed his mouth stinks of carrion and overflows with blood and maggots.

Final Blow - KB combines all his strength into one strike, aiming to maim or mortally wound an enemy with either one of his hands. This allows him to pierce body armor or flesh as though it were tissue paper. This attack requires a moment of preparation and cannot change target, nor can it make the hand make substantial changes in trajectory.

Falcon Punch - KB uses Negative Energy to propel himself forwards in a concentrated burst. The maximum effective range of this technique is 20ft. This distance is crossed almost instantly. Terrain is not an issue unless there are notable obstructions that would physically block him from reaching his target, and can't be simply barreled through. ( Thick stone walls for example, or vehicles. ) Once activated this ability cannot be stopped unless the punch connects or the distance is traveled.

Shadow Kick - Fundamentally the same as the Falcon Punch, though this ability has a shorter range of 15ft and delivers a kick.

Life Sense - As a vampire KB is able to detect the blood of living creatures near to him. This form of sight causes the illumination of blood to the vampire's senses in the dark, and can be employed at will simply by closing the eyes. This ability does not pierce walls however and is subject to line-of-sight.

Spider Climb - KB is able to traverse any flat surface with ease, disregarding gravity as he does so. This allows him to walk up walls or along ceilings in complete comfort without disorientating himself. When he does so the gravity of himself and attended objects seems to orientate itself to his will, causing his clothing to hang towards whichever surface he walks upon.

Aura of Undeath - Like a sieve the vampire constantly leaks Negative Energy which has palpable effects on the world around him. Lesser lifeforms can be killed outright ( small plants, vermin ) and the temperature of the area drops considerably if his proximity is prolonged. This 'aura' can be subdued for a short time at the expense of effort.
