        SKILLS & TALENTS
        NATURAL ABILITIES
        Primary Talent ▬ Fast Learner - Adam can see a fighting technique once and it'll be burned into his memory. He'll remember how the move was executed perfectly with with a small amount of practice he can use the technique himself
        Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ WHOA! - This talent is focused on Adam's reflexes. His reflexes are so finely tuned that with, only, 3 cm of movement he can roughly predict where an attack is coming from and where it's aimed.
        Other Talents ▬ Thick Skin - Adam was born with thicker skin than usual. This allows him to reduce damage from attacks, weapons and explosions. This ability has proven itself useful allowing him to push further into a battle more often than the average person.

        I Pick Things Up! I Put Them Down! - Adam was born with more strength than the average person allowing him to deadlift 800 pounds. He uses this strength in battle making him more of a treat and overwhelming opponent.

        LEARNT ABILITIES
        Strongest Skill ▬ Switch - Switch allows Adam to become the "Gladiator" he was in the PlayPen. This skill increases his reaction time, speed, strength and pain tolerance by flooding his body with adrenaline and purpose. This is a skill he doesn't use often because it turns him into a "machine" and causes him physical pain. Like 1,000 hot needles being stabbed into his heart. He becomes cold and apathetic with no regard to his own life or safety. This mode will continue until he either completes his purpose or until he is knocked unconscious. He won't remember much from his time underneath the influence of Switch, but the pain his body feels will inform him of the switch being flipped.
        Weakest Skill ▬ Ranged fighting - Considering Adam is a CQ fighter and can push to mid-range due to his pistols he is absolutely useless at ranged combat considering he has no weapons or abilities allowing him to do so.
        Other Skills ▬ Physical Recall - In moments where Adam is in a tight spot in a fight he can tap into his years of fighting for his life in the PlayPen.

        PERSONALITY TRAITS
        Nature ▬Laid back for the most part and rarely ever gets upset. Loves to joke, smile and make puns when the opportunity presents itself. He'll hide things that are wrong with him so no one will worry for him.
        Vernacular ▬ He speaks with ebonics and slang mostly, but can talk properly when needed.
        Positive Traits ▬ Doesn't meddle and a good person to talk to or a shoulder to cry on since he doesn't judge. Can give good advice, but only if you tell him you want it
        Negative Traits ▬ Adam is oblivious and doesn't catch on to the atmosphere of a room very often.

╫ H I S T O R Y ╫

        BACKGROUND ▬ Growing up in poverty wasn't anything special or unheard of. Adam was just one of the statistics. Eating once a day. Twice if he was lucky. Adam was sitting in the small shack they called a house playing with whatever junk he found that day. Suddenly, men burst through he door and grabbed him saying 'it's time' or something like that. They held a knife to her throat to ensure she wouldn't try anything stupid. That was the first time he's ever seen his mom cry. The pain, fear and hurt twisted his very being at that sight would forever etch itself into his spirit. It was the first memory he had of crying. But Adam was sure the pain he felt was nothing compared tot he pain of a mother powerless to save her child. The men placed a black bag over the 5 year olds head and he was dragged to a cage and heard it lock behind him. The cage was 14 ft high and 10-15 ft wide. His ears were met with the roaring applause and cheers of a crowd. He looked around to see people sitting in stands practically howling like animals. He looked across from him and saw another kid his age crying his eyes out. A bell rang and the match began. Adam tried to get out of the cage but was met with harsh words. "Do it, kid! Or die like the other ones!" the man spat. The other kid must've overheard because he was no longer crying. He picked up one of the many weapons they were throwing into the ring and rushed Adam. With no other option...that was the first time Adam killed another human. At the age of 5. Years and years went on and he had to keep killing and killing and killing. The only good thing that came from his constant winning is it gave his family a better life. It was just him and his mom, but she had another child. Another son she named Arthur. He had to keep fighting and killing for them. At least once a month he ended the day bathed in someone else's blood. Slowly becoming nothing more than a gladiator. An attack dog with no choice. He made his name. People called him 'Rok' which was short for Ragnarok because stepping in the ring with him meant the end of their days. The Playpen roared whenever he stepped into the area. Saying he was one of the greatest to touch the cage. He felt no pride. No sadness. And no happiness. He was a living corpse ready to make another still one. Day after day, match after match, kill after kill he could feel nothing. One day after a match he was sitting under a tree he would sit at just to get away from the cage. Eyes dulled looking at his blood covered hands. A random person came to sit next to him. It was surprising because people avoided Adam because they thought he was a monster. The man sat in silence for a few minutes allowing time to get his thoughts together. He told Adam that "You don't have to run and hurt by yourself. Talking about what's going on in your head helps. Making friends helps" Just some random guy who's never met him came and said that to Adam. So, naturally, Adam said nothing to him. He sat there for a minute and walked away with a smile. Before Adam knew, after a long time, he was crying. Adam looked to the ground in the same spot after he murdered someone and cried. Every match Adam had he would say that or something to that effect. That small thing that no one did for Adam after the kid was forced to be a killing machine meant the world to him.

        With many attempts from the man he finally got through to Adam and he found it possible to smile again. Adam got an idea. He didn't like it, but killing was worse in his opinion. He would damage the person beyond repair and make them incapable of fighting. At least they would still be breathing and Adam wouldn't feel so heavy. It was a twisted form of mercy to Adam. The heads of the PlayPen were satisfied with what he was doing and gave him a chance to win his freedom. Just one more fight. Adam accepted. He entered the ring for the for the last time, but it felt like the first. Now, his freedom was on the line. They even promised his brother wouldn't have to EVER step foot in there if he won because of Adam's record. He looked to the other side to see his opponent and he felt his heart in his throat. It was the same man who helped him. The one who gave him feeling again. The man, no older than 21, met Adam on his own playing field. No weapons, just hand-to-hand combat. Adam stood there without lifting a finger being beaten senseless, blood pouring from him as he stood there and took his punishment. The man clinched Adam and in a hushed whispered explained that he was dying. He had an illness that was going to end his life. Adam's breath hitched at this information and shook him to the core. The man went further to explain that he had a family and had no way to provide for them. He was approached by one of the heads of the PlayPen and said they would make sure his family would have whatever they needed if he were to fight Adam. Win or lose they would be taken care of. "Adam, I don't want to die in pain like that. I need you, my best friend, to send me away peacefully and help me protect my family." Adam felt the tears well in his eyes, but were hidden within the blood on his face and near his eyes.

        The man practically begged Adam while still striking him so it looked like the match continued. Adam was shaking and the man knew he was giving in. With the last few moments before Adam sealed his fate and won his own freedom the man told him to smile. Joke, laugh and feel happiness. Make friends find love and protect what you want to protect. He told Adam one last time that he was his best friend and thanked him for honoring his request after he worked so hard to stop killing. Adam let out a mighty yell before ducking under the man's punch and struck him in the heart with his fist. The man gasped and they both stood there motionless as Adam was crying uncontrollably but it was still masked by the blood. With a smile on his face, the man hit the floor with a grand thud. They unceremoniously dragged the fallen opponent's body out of the cage and threw it into the mass grave where they threw the other fallen. Under the PlayPen. There it was. His freedom at the greatest price he could pay. He was approached by the heads and led to a room where he would officially be pardoned from the PlayPen. Not without berating him about killing the only friend he's ever had. He didn't notice one of them throwing a poker into a fire. They brought his papers out which he signed and bit his thumb to bleed it allowing him to place a thumbprint next to his signature sealing the deal. Suddenly, they held him down as one of them began writing on his back with the hot poker. "Worthless Killer" was largely engraved on his back. Accompanying it would be smaller versions of the same text for every time he's killed someone. Along with marks they just felt like throwing in there. Normally he would fight back, but he feared they would take away what they promised not only from him and his family but also the dying wish of his last victim; his best friend. This pain was unbearable, but it didn't hurt as much as his last kill. He felt as if he deserved this and bit his lip as he cried. Not because of the branding, but because of what his freedom cost.

        Not too much longer he was approached by a hunter who had been watching him fight and waited until he was free to offer him a chance to go to beacon. Thinking back on his best friends last words, he pulled a smile across his face and happily accepted. He was now free to honor what was requested of him and spread the same love he was given to others.

At level 3 he will be forgotten about completely. Adam can turn off effect when he wants but cannot turn it on without meeting the requirements again. His semblance will affect, at max, two people at once. The hits can be consecutive or dealt between the two targets in any order as long as they land.

I'm not gonna lie this seems super cool but also more like a semblance than just a thing you can flat out do. But let's try and work this into something as I think it has potential.

Just letting ya know, humans get a bonus primary talent (that goes here. If you don't pick it now, you CAN NOT pick it later. You've been informed.
Quote:
Strongest Skill ▬ Switch - Switch allows Adam to become the "Gladiator" he was in the PlayPen. This skill increases his reaction time, speed, strength and pain tolerance by flooding his body with adrenaline and purpose. This is a skill he doesn't use often because it turns him into a "machine." He becomes cold and apathetic with no regard to his own life or safety. This mode will continue until he either completes his purpose or until he is knocked unconscious. He won't remember much from his time underneath the influence of Switch, but the pain his body feels will inform him of the switch being flipped.
This is gonna need a huge draw back (I see the start of someting but it's not descriptive enough). I've also been informed that shutting off your emotions will need to cause your character physical pain (you know the whole Grimm attracted to negative emotions and stuff). That same person told me that shutting your emotions off feels like a thousand needles in the heart.
Quote:
Other Skills ▬ Physical Recall - In moments where Adam is in a tight spot in a fight he can tap into his years of fighting for his life in the PlayPen. From sensing murderous intent to remembering how to counter a weapon his body will remember and account before his mind registers.
Only 2 parts of this I don't like. "sensing murderous intent" and "before his mind registers". blindsense and auto-reactions are a far too strong for an 'other'.

Semblance
Wow this is an odd one. On one hand it's kinda weak, so I'll help out with suggestions to ramp it up. On the other it's too strong, so I'll point out my issues with it.
Quote:
DRAWBACKS ▬ Drains Aura and once ability is disabled, he has to start from square one.
This isn't a unique weakness to your semblance, this is how they all function... I fear to think of a semblance that doesn't drain aura shudders. Anyways. If you want this to be the only weakness you need to give me a mana count for your aura, how much does it drain to maintain, how much aura do you have at max, how many people can be under the affect at once. Or you could limit it in other ways, up to you.
Now for making it stronger, yeh you read right. level 0 and 1 seem decent. but by level 2 it stops feeling like it ramps up in a constructive way (as most fights by this level I'd imagine to be in teams). Perhaps it could stop being just a not looking at him, but genuinley forgetting about him. Or activley avoiding him with things other than their eyes... Although these would mean it couldn't gain longer lasting times, so it's up to you.

        SKILLS & TALENTS
        NATURAL ABILITIES
        Primary Talent ▬ Fast Learner - Adam can see a fighting technique once and it'll be burned into his memory. He'll remember how the move was executed perfectly with with a small amount of practice he can use the technique himself
        Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ WHOA! - This talent is focused on Adam's reflexes. His reflexes are so finely tuned that with, only, 3 cm of movement he can roughly predict where an attack is coming from and where it's aimed.
        Other Talents ▬ Thick Skin - Adam was born with thicker skin than usual. This allows him to reduce damage from attacks, weapons and explosions. This ability has proven itself useful allowing him to push further into a battle more often than the average person.

        I Pick Things Up! I Put Them Down! - Adam was born with more strength than the average person allowing him to deadlift 800 pounds. He uses this strength in battle making him more of a treat and overwhelming opponent.

        LEARNT ABILITIES
        Strongest Skill ▬ Switch - Switch allows Adam to become the "Gladiator" he was in the PlayPen. This skill increases his reaction time, speed, strength and pain tolerance by flooding his body with adrenaline and purpose. This is a skill he doesn't use often because it turns him into a "machine" and causes him physical pain. Like 1,000 hot needles being stabbed into his heart. He becomes cold and apathetic with no regard to his own life or safety. This mode will continue until he either completes his purpose or until he is knocked unconscious. He won't remember much from his time underneath the influence of Switch, but the pain his body feels will inform him of the switch being flipped.
        Weakest Skill ▬ Ranged fighting - Considering Adam is a CQ fighter and can push to mid-range due to his pistols he is absolutely useless at ranged combat considering he has no weapons or abilities allowing him to do so.
        Other Skills ▬ Physical Recall - In moments where Adam is in a tight spot in a fight he can tap into his years of fighting for his life in the PlayPen.

        Vernacular ▬ He speaks with ebonics and slang mostly, but can talk properly when needed
        Positive Traits ▬ Doesn't meddle and a good person to talk to or a shoulder to cry on since he doesn't judge. Can give good advice, but only if you tell him you want it
        Negative Traits ▬ Adam is oblivious and doesn't catch on to the atmosphere of a room very often. Which is why he often stays to himself.

╫ H I S T O R Y ╫

        BACKGROUND ▬ Growing up in poverty wasn't anything special or unheard of. Adam was just one of the statistics. Eating once a day. Twice if he was lucky. He made money for his family through fighting in the 'Play Pen' for hours a day. He was practically putting on a show for free considering how much his earning were. He occasionally heard people take about Hunters and Huntresses who would go and hunt Grimm and uphold Justice and all those 'great' things. With the people acted in the community, it seemed, to him, the Grimm took a page out of humanities book. Killing, stealing, lying. Anything to prove power, assert dominance or get ahead for themselves. Adam isn't an emotional person, but he hated the area he lived in. After years and years of killing in the playground from a very young age, he had to beat one more person and he was done. The last person weighed heavy on him. He scraped his earnings together and planned to take his family out of the ghetto and into the 'light' so to say. As fate would have it, someone with certain connections at Beacon was at the Play Pen one day and saw him fighting and decided to offer him admission and said his family will have lodging and he could make money after graduating and becoming a Hunter. He mulled it over and accepted the man's offer and officially became a student of Beacon.

        *NAME ▬ Houdini
        *AURA COLOR ▬Gray
        *DESCRIPTION With every blow landed on opponent, he will have a harder time keeping Adam in his line of sight. In other words, the opponents eyes will subconsciously avoid Adam, due to blows discharging an aura effect that simply cause the enemy's eyes to struggle focusing on your aura/body, making it seem like he disappeared. At level 3 he will be forgotten about completely. Adam can turn off effect when he wants but cannot turn it on without meeting the requirements again. His semblance will affect, at max, two people at once. The hits can be consecutive or dealt between the two targets in any order as long as they land. If another target is hit then he starts back at square one.
        ▬ (General Description: In the 3 following bullets please describe how your semblance improves over levels)
        ▬ Landing 3 physical blows effect lasts 2 posts of the recipient
        ▬ Landing 3 physical blows effect lasts 4 posts of the recipient
        ▬ Landing 3 physical blows effect lasts 6 posts of the recipient
        ▬ Landing 3 blows effect lasts 3 posts of the recipient
        *DRAWBACKS ▬ Adam can only use his semblance at total of 3 times
