Name: Illo
Occupation: Was a janitor, is now the fully realized Iron Phoenix.
Bio: After a series of trials, the Phoenix finally ascended to the most high state of being, known as the Iron Phoenix; a metaphor for a phoenix which doesn't burn out, illustrating that the monk has broken the cycle of humanity to become something more. I'm not going to say how he was enlightened, and I'm leaving out a lot of things would have yet to happen in his story, because spoilers.
Suppose I'll just highlight some feats of strength Illo accomplished in his time in a mortal shell. He bested a Gregorian choir full of shaolin trained monks, then the headmaster of the Phoenixes, THEN the previous Iron Phoenix without going past 75%. His soul wavelength itself is strong enough to overload a nuclear reactor just by resonating with it. He tanked a fully charged railgun and got up a post later. He took on the Black Warden, an unbeatable boss with auto-hits, by himself and dueled it to a stalemate. He survived an explosion that took out the entire Lucrum Labs with no help from his qi... Somehow. And that's just the first mission!
Later Illo fought (and I'm assuming defeated) Carmen. In that fight, a base hit of Illo's at 50% Phoenix Mode was comparable to a 150% of Carmen's, a hard level opponent who specializes in hitting people hard. If it was a linear increase, Illo's 100% would be three times as hard hitting as Carmen, but that's not the case. His power increases on a exponential curve, so it's really hard to say just how powerful he is/was. Well, it's not that hard, I just don't want to do the math.
Abilities:
Instead of regular abilities,. I'm just going to redirect you to the top of the post. He's not meant to fight, so I think putting abilities up would be a provocation.
