█ █ ╫ A R C H E T Y P E ╫
█NATURAL ABILITIES █Primary Talent ▬ True Master of Vulture Combat(Unlocked after Dating Chloris) : A memory as old as time unlocked between both Victor and Akuryo. Skilled with his claws from the start and honing it to their utmost limit along with his throwing knives, while wielding any knife or using his claws, Akuryo and Victor are unparalleled by others. His attack speed is staggeringly fast. █Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ Memories of the Vulture(Unlocked after Encounter with Lunia) : Akuryo regains some of his memories growing up as Victor and his true Talents. Akuryo/Victor's body is alot more focused and dizzying in it's movements, able to move more quietly than anything else compared to the common man. █Other Talents ▬ Faded Strength: Akuryo and Victor's strength has returned, but at a lower level, granting him a deadlift capacity of 800 lbs Deception: Akuryo and Victor were both natural-born thinkers, and as such know how to lie in order to maintain their identities from one another. No one can tell who is who when one or the other are in the lead. █LEARNT ABILITIES █Strongest Skill ▬ Vulture's Training: Eyes and Ears : More memories of his past has surfaced, leading him to recall how he fought on the field. He no longer has the need to manipulate the combat to his advantage as he is aware of his surroundings consistently, his hearing and senses much better than humans normally would be.(Up to 60ft away, he cannot be surprised by enemies.) █Weakest Skill ▬ Predictable: Despite his stealth, attack speed, and everything designed around combat, he is rather predictable in terms of wind-ups and usually falling into a rhythm. █Other Skills ▬ Durability: He is great at taking hits compared to the normal human. This is because of how often he fights that his skin has gotten used to the cuts and bruises. Reaction Speed: While not super fast, Victor's eyes haven't gotten him killed, and if he can see something coming, he has better odds of evading the attack, or blocking it in time compared to other humans. Vulture Feathercount : Akuryo/Victor has made it a bit of a hobby and a developed skill to keep count of how many times people have done something. From how many bullets are used before being reloaded to how many knives he's thrown before he runs out. He uses this as a bit of a synopsis on how much ammo an enemy may have IF he's faught them before.
█LIKES █ ▬ (Dismemberment and Murder) / {Watching the Rain} █ ▬ (People who understand his Ideals) / {Chloris} █ ▬ (Blood) / {Purple Shield} █ ▬ (His Bone Butterfly Knife) / {The Purple Shield Plant} █ ▬ (Bats) / {Jellyfish} █DISLIKES █ ▬ (Living Beings) / {Akuryo} █ ▬ (Broccoli) / {Blood} █ ▬ (Guns) / {Guns} █ ▬ (Rats) / {Sharks} █ ▬ (Fire) / {Death} █PERSONALITY TRAITS █Nature ▬ (He is not right in the head, he is clearly demented enough to think that killing is just apart of nature and it is his job to deliver it while he lives and breathes. He thinks himself as someone people should follow, and those he deems to die, shall die. It is that simple as he also enjoys drinking the blood of others. He revels in blood, revels in murder, he revels... for pure enjoyment. He doesn't kill without reason, and will not stab someone for the sake of stabbing.) {Cool headed and Rational, Victor knows when things are in the wrong and is willing to call things out when they are. He is a bit blunt, but a nervous blunt.} █Vernacular ▬ (He normally speaks in a condensending type of voice, but when he is in combat, his condensending tone, is replaced with something strange, as if he was speaking as two different people as once to try and egg the person on.) {Victor is confident at times when he speaks, but other than that he's rather soft-spoken and his tone is usually only for those he is close to can hear.} █Positive Traits ▬ He can kill at a moment's notice, even when drinking a beer, because it's fun. He finds pleasure in examining his knives and sometimes creating bone daggers. {He's willing to help, and will correct any mistakes made by his more vicious half.} █Negative Traits ▬ He finds annoyance in people who talk big but do nothing... 'All bark and no bite.' {He has to hide who his evil half is, and will try to deny it's existance.}
█ █ ╫ H I S T O R Y ╫
█BACKGROUND ▬ (Incoming True Backstory) Victor Breakheart was born to the destitute once great land of Mantle, along with his friends known as Elliot Payne and Beatrice Miona. When he was growing up, he had unnaturally platinum hair with his hazel eyes. Together the three grew up with whatever they could do for fun in the dark and poor city. They always aspired to be greater than where they were, better than the military that lived in the cloud city of Atlas. Each of them knew they had something special when they all ran into a big kid named Jeremiah Carraway. The lad had a crazy idea for these youngsters, and he was going to try and bully them into doing what he wanted! They each shut him down in their own way, with Victor throwing sand in his eyes, Beatrice kicking him in the no-no spot, and Elliot tackling him to shove him down and out of their way. They had each other, no need for someone who was bigger than them, and so long as they worked together, they could do anything.
It stayed like that as they grew up, soon moving out of Mantle as they managed to hide in one of the transports to get to the cloud city. If they were going to shine better than the Cloud City, then they needed to get there first and what better way than with teamwork! And once on the Atlas surface.... they were all caught due to someone who saw them....the brat Jeremiah had called the Atlas Police Department and ratted them out! They didn't want to get sent back so Victor, being the one to think for his team, told the Police that they wanted to join the Atlas Academy to help the people like they did, probably even better than they did. At first Elliot was not having it but after being told an ultimatum by the Police Officer himself, Elliot begrudgingly accepted and that they would temporarily be held in juvenile detention while awaiting the application process. During their time being held, they decided to better themselves via exercising and reading with all the new things they had to use here....better than going back to Mantle in Victor's opinion.
A month had passed while they remained in the detention center, with Elliot and Beatrice both looking more angry that Victor had gotten them both in this mess when news arrived, they had been accepted into the Academy despite their young age of 14 and were put into the classes post haste, each learning their own discipline sadly apart from one another as 4 years passed by. When they were finally of age and were put together as a team and dubbed Atlesian Huntsman, but they needed a name as a fourth person joined them, to which they were then dubbed the following Codename: V.L.T.E. Vulture. With Victor as their leader they were sent out on patrols, getting first hand combat experience to hunt down Grimm and with their weapons of Victor's throwing knives, Beatrice's Twin Atlas Dust Revolvers, Elliot's Tar-Based Flamethrower, and their new teammate "Traicurt" and his Thunder Fists they were able to take down everything they were thrown at. Two more years had passed before Victor, Elliot, and Beatrice all agreed they had no more time to practice and play huntsmen, this was now the chance they needed to prove they were better as they left Traicurt behind.
They spent another two years issuing out Vigilante Justice both in Atlas and in Mantle, killing Grimm and on occasions killing filthy humans. They were doing a good job of keeping the streets clean of both monsters and villainy till one day....they were asked to perform a job, with Victor of 22 years old willing to help as it was the right thing to do when the mission came to stopping a slave smuggling. On the night of the mission Victor went ahead to scout, leaping from the top of a cave with his aura active to land on the moving train from Mantle, his allies moving behind him as they landed on the later carts. Victor slipped in quietly as he looked around and was suddenly knocked in the back of the head with something fierce, dropping unconscious. When he awoke, he found himself bound by his hands with someone screaming beside him. He looked around only to find out he was blindfolded! He struggled in his bindings before he felt something burn....he screamed in horrible pain as he realized he had extremely hot tar placed on his back, but it seemed only to be a small amount. If it weren’t for his aura, he'd be dead by the time the fires died down as he could then hear a gunshot....three gunshots. Soon a voice spoke. "Should've left ya'll here to rot but I couldn't just let go....you all ******** with my plans from the very start and now you all are going to pay for it." He told them as Victor knew the voice, it was Traicurt but......he sounded much more familiar. A female voice followed, spitting at him that they didn't know who he was, that he was a monster for what he is doing!
The man known as Traicurt simply laughed as Victor noticed the bindings on his wrists were zip-ties. The heat from the fire to his back had weakened it mostly before the man spoke before revealing who he was....it was Jeremiah, the boy who failed to manipulate them and at first Victor and Beatrice were perplexed before he heard Beatrice asking for him to not to do this, and to not get close, calling him all sorts of names before he heard a sickening wet stabbing sound. Beatrice cried out, yet her voice was nothing but a gargled mess as the sound of metal hitting the floor could be heard. Victor braced his feet while the man got closer, removing Victor's eyes as he was hit with a blinding light before the man spoke, telling him it was his fault this happened while he saw a pilot light and the barrel of Elliot's flamethrower aimed at him. His eyes went wide but at that moment, he broke through the zip-tie and knocked the flamethrower away just as he pulled the trigger, hitting the wall with heated fire as Victor scrambled over to Beatrice, grabbing the dagger that he realized was his before he screamed and lunged at Jeremiah. The man was more of an expert at close combat, but the surprise from Victor's animalish lunge costed him his left eye before throwing Victor off of him, giving the man time to escape, covered in blood, his shirt torn, back damaged.
He never could make it far when the police started to make their attempts on him, only making him run further as he recognized the area around him. He was back in Mantle and with it, he hopped over into a nearby building and for three days straight, he fought....he fought using knives and guerilla tactics to take down the policemen that hunted him down like the animal he was because, when he figured out why himself, Jeremiah had lied to the police....tarnishing the Vulture's reputation and damning Victor as a murderer.
On the fourth day, after having killed a total of 53 police men and having lost his sense of sanity and self, he was finally captured, the military wanted him dead, but because of Atlas and Mantle crimes coinciding, they had to give him a trial, to ensure a proper execution.
A clip plays on the video... it shows a courtroom with the case of: The People of Atlas vs. Victor Breakheart "Victor, you have been charged with 55 cases of 1st degree murder, 2 charges of aggravated assault of a police officer, resisting arrest, Kidnapping, and Robbery, how do you plea?" The judge asked. "....You seem to be missing some of my other cases. 55 murders to you.... 642 to me... you're missing 587 other bodies." Victor responded, without a sense of smile or of remorse as the judge flinched and pointed the gavel at the man. "DO YOU HAVE NO SHAME?!" The judge cried. "What is shame to a man who murdered his parents at the age of 11?" Victor responded, a lie to them but to him they died due to a misunderstanding from him, catching the judge off-guard. A cold heartless stare aimed at the man as he realized what he had to do to survive now. "I live because I have a purpose....and I will show it to you." He told the judge.
The camera feed cuts out for a second, popping in and out to show Victor breaking free from his bindings, a hideous laughter echoing through the room as blood, limbs, and viscera were sent flying everywhere. The feed returns to normal, despite being covered in blood, it seemed visible enough to show Victor at the Judge's seat and the judge at the defendant's seat. "Order! Order in the court!" Victor cried out with laughter as he was banging a fist-clenched arm on the desk like a gavel. "The results are in; the jury finds you guilty! And your sentence is death!" Victor told the horrified judge with glee before the murderer leapt from the Judge's seat, the feed cutting out at the sight of the arm's shoulder stump getting close to the judge's screaming mouth.
"The People of Atlas vs. Victor Breakheart had ended in tragedy as the man responsible for countless murders escaped the courtroom to leave no survivors. A total of 27 people were found torn to pieces and deep gashes left on torsos that remained mostly intact. The killer is nowhere to be found and has been rumored to still be running amok, causing havoc where he rides. This has been Emilia, and I'm signing off." The video feed ends.
Meanwhile just at the outskirts of the Kingdom of Atlas, at the age of 22, Victor was standing at the vast sea towards Vale, his eyes empty before he looked down to his blood-crusted dagger, his clothing and limbs dried with blood before he finally fell to his knees. He tossed that old trusted Dagger of his out into the sea as he realized he had nowhere left to go here....nothing to comeback to now and was just about to throw himself off when he heard a voice. A young lad who seemed to be no older than he and was offering him an apple. Victor looked to the fellow before he took the apple and with a pleading look he asked....."Why?" but the answer was simple....."Because you look like you could use a fruit."
They exchanged as much pleasantries as possible, with Victor telling the boy what had happened to him for most of his life and that he was about to throw it all away due to what had just happened. With the boy instead insisting that Victor continues to live that life, and to follow in his footsteps....introducing himself as Solvit, Solvit Haatelis. With nothing better to accomplish now, Victor agreed to let him be a part of his life now, but with that new life, they needed to leave Atlas and change his appearance incase wanted posters started going out.
By the time they had arrived at Vale two years later, Victor had gone under a considerable change from both personality and his physical appearance. His knack for killing became more prone as people tried to hurt him or his friend, getting too close for their own good, or were simply assholes who deserved to die. His platinum hair had been cut short, his hair dyed a pitch black, while Solvit bought him contacts for him to use to cover his Hazel eyes with Scarlet Red appearance. He settled on a new name, to forsake his old one while he heard rumors of things happening in Atlas. He set up his own Morgue using a loan he got under his old name before killing the name dead....now being named Akuryo Beckwood. It was a new place, a change of face, but one thing was for sure, his killing days would never cease as he worked from Vale from now on for the final 3 years.
During those last three years, Solvit had helped him obtain a new dagger that could transform to help him kill from a distance, while Akuryo himself joined forces with a man named Ghost. He fought a man named Svafnir who stirred some of his old memories before they finally set out for their first mission together with a man named Zaffre. During that time however, Akuryo remembered something from his past that was long forgotten....during the two-year stint of working as a vigilante, he remembered the words from Elliot: 'Even embers can become a new blaze...that is my obligation. For you Akuryo....where true light exists, you will be the shadow to taint it. We exist because the world demands our services...good and evil we care not, for what we do is for the betterment of balance. Whether they like it or not' as he encountered Lunia. He has since made a mental vow to battle her once again....to taint her light with his darkened heart or maybe he sought the reverse.

█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Vulture's Talons █ ▬ A Set of clawed gauntlets and a Pauldron shaped like the skull of a vulture, these weapons originate in the heart of Atlas and were found in Vale's black market. Victor's original weapon, he once mastered the use of these claws, he may once again master them. These claws and pauldron are able to extend into the "Ranged" form of a feathered hood and cloak. When transformed, the left gauntlet becomes attached to the cloak and becomes a firing mechanism, launching up to 4 sharp feather blades at a time. The cloak is entirely made of these Black Steel Feathers and acts as a shield for him via hardening up when Aura channels through it. █Melee Form ▬ Melee Form(Each Talon extends from the end of the finger up to 5cm and are razor sharp, capable of the thousand cuts torture.) █Ranged Form ▬ Added on Ranged Form(Effective Range is upwards of 35m(114ft)) █Other Form(s) ▬ (Additional Forms) █Ammo Type ▬ Physical Ammunition(The Wing itself is self-loading with bladed feathers with an ammo count of 40 blades) █ ▬ Weaknesses: The weapon's firing rate is slower than a standard military pistol. ▬ As the cloak form's feathers run out, so too does Victor's shield, once all 40 are done and gone, it will take up to two posts to reload the cloak from the carrying case on his back.
█OTHER WEAPONS █ ▬ 20 other Types of Knives on his Bandolier.(They vary in sizes and length but the smallest being a standard Scalpel 10 Blade is about 2 inches in blade length with the largest being a standard dagger at blade length of 9 inches. A standard Cleaver can often be found amongst the knives at 7 inches in blade length.) █ ▬ Folded Bo-Staff(Gifted from Solvit)(Measures 6 feet in length) █ ▬ █ITEMS █ ▬ A handkerchief █ ▬ Feather Blades(up to 120) █ ▬ New Scroll
█ █ ╫ S E M B L A N C E ╫
█*NAME ▬ Vulture's Pedestal █*AURA COLOR ▬ Crimson Red, like Blood. █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ The ability of corruption, capable of affecting human and grim alike. He can exude dominion over certain people, forcing them to the will of his aura as it steals their senses. He can summon his dominion via a pedestal, but two things are clear, it will always emanate from the pedestal and that it will never affect him. All effects mentioned in this semblance set up are cumulative, and always use the highest level. In order to call forth his dominion he must have line of sight of the spot. The Pedestal that houses his dominion can permanently be seen ONLY INSIDE of the darkness as it will be surrounded by a demon glyph. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ Vulture's Pedestal(See no Evil) : Akuryo can place his dominion and summon a radiating aura of pure darkness pedestal within 30 feet of his reach. The conjured darkness range reaches around 20 feet away from it, and those unaffected will lose sight of him due to the large amorphous sphere of darkness around him. Those inside of the range find themselves unable to see anything whatsoever, not even with their aura. While Akuryo is inside of his Darkness, he is considered invisible. █*LEVEL 1▬ Dead Senses(Hear and Speak no Evil) : Akuryo can now choose to exude his dominion by summoning his pedestal within 50 feet of his range. The aura exudes an amorphous sphere of darkness ranging 30 feet that only Akuryo can see/hear through. Others within the darkness now can no longer see AND hear anything. While Akuryo is inside of the darkness, any and all sound he makes are considered Silent. █*LEVEL 2▬ Vulture's Pedestal(Feel no Evil) : Akuryo's darkness extends further, becoming more dangerous than before. When summoned, it's range has been increased to 40 feet around it. Those within this darkness become unable to discern anything via touch, their sense of touch has dulled to the point that become unable to tell if what touched them was a fist, a hand, a blade, or a desk. His aura at this point can now affect electronical equipment, such as mics, cameras, and the like. █*LEVEL 3 ▬ Madness(Control No Evil) : Akuryo in this state has powered his Darkness to the point of possibly being able to block out all Aura-related Talents/Skills along with all the other senses. While they are not completely stolen, they are completely inaccessible to anyone who specializes in Aura-related abilities. Examples of such abilities are: Aura Sight, Aura Shield, and Power Strike. The range of the darkness from the pedestal is 50 feet around it at max power. █*DRAWBACKS ▬ His summoned pedestals can only last certain amount of times depending as to his level. All summoned Pedestals are at their strongest state. Level 0: 5 posts Level 1: 5 posts Level 2: 5 posts Level 3: 5 posts
He can only create a pedestal one at a time and once the pedestal either fades away or is tampered with, he must wait 4 posts before he can recast another pedestal.
His Pedestals can permanently be seen by any creature or being inside of the darkness, however they are capable of being destroyed. A few strong hits from anyone with Strength of Other Talent or higher will break this Pedestal with ease, dispelling the darkness.
It takes a post to either create darkness OR to dispell his darkness(Be it by himself or by Someone else doing it).
If someone is a level higher than Akuryo, his semblance is "half" as effective on them. Examples: Level 0 against a level one, isn't complete blindness, but instead they can't see more than like five feet in front of them as an example. Level 1 used on level 2 would be that sounds are heavily muffled, and cant really be discerned as to what. Level 2 on a Level 3 will be mostly dulled sense of touch with the ability to discern what they feel, like they could tell they are being shot at or punched.
Before Level 3, Akuryo and his Pedestal are the only sources of Aura inside of the darkness. However, those with Aura Sight must be within the Darkness to be able to detect Akuryo or his Pedestal.
At Levels 0 and 1, Electronical Equipment are unaffected by the semblance alone.
The one Bodily Sense that is never stolen in this semblance is Scent.

Hey had a quick look through the profile!
Quote:
█Strongest Skill ▬ Combat: He lives and breathes combat to the point where he has been hired as an assassin before to kill. His W/L/D record stands at 642/1/0.
We'd like Strongest Skill to be more specific than combat in general. If you'd like to choose a specific type of combat (hand to hand, close quaters, long distance, etc.) then it'd be ok, but unfortunatley this is too general.
Quote:
█Weakest Skill ▬ Tenacious(Negative): He is not one to give up fighting, and even when he is in a disadvantageous fight, he will keep going, no matter how wounded. HOWEVER, he will run when he realizes the numbers are not in his true favor. Because of this, he will never run from a close quarters fight, despite the fact he is actually weaker to fight since he uses a knife.
This is a personality trait not a weakness. Please pick somthing else.
Also let us know when you've settled on a semblance, or if you need any help with it!

█NATURAL ABILITIES █Primary Talent ▬ Trap-making, he knows how to not only make traps, but where to place them where they have the most effective range. He is especially good when it comes to blade-based traps(Like Buzz-Saws) █Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ He can discern weaknesses in his opponents, physical and mental. His specialty follows suit with how often he fights, he has seen many a thing and can see further than expected. █Other Talents ▬ He's good at finding a good bar to pick up ladies, but he's terrible at picking up women. He is also okay at keeping people and their corpse's company. █LEARNT ABILITIES █Strongest Skill ▬ Combat: He lives and breathes combat to the point where he has been hired as an assassin before to kill. However, where he shines is definitely mid-ranged combat, never getting closer than 30 ft of his foe, and not going too far. This is because he calls it his sweet spot for attacking and dodging his foes. His W/L/D record stands at 642/1/0. █Weakest Skill ▬ Hand to hand(Negative): He is not the best when it comes to hand to hand combat. Despite being swift with his attacks and swings, he always aims to get away from the on those who get too close. █Other Skills ▬ Durability: He is great at taking hits compared to the normal human. This is because of how often he fights that his skin has gotten used to the cuts and bruices. Hit & Run: His fights have almost always ended without a frontal confrontation because of a well-aimed throw with his many knives or a trap going off with him watching. He prefers to keep people and grimm at a distance of his knives. Deconstruction: He knows how to take people's bodies apart and drain the body of blood properly. This is because of how many he has killed and taken for their blood, that it's become a genuine hobby.

█NATURAL ABILITIES █Primary Talent ▬ Trap-making, he knows how to not only make traps, but where to place them where they have the most effective range. He is especially good when it comes to blade-based traps(Like Buzz-Saws) █Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ He can discern weaknesses in his opponents, physical and mental. His specialty follows suit with how often he fights, he has seen many a thing and can see further than expected. █Other Talents ▬ He's good at finding a good bar to pick up ladies, but he's terrible at picking up women. He is also okay at keeping people and their corpse's company. █LEARNT ABILITIES █Strongest Skill ▬ Combat: He lives and breathes combat to the point where he has been hired as an assassin before to kill. However, where he shines is definitely mid-ranged combat, never getting closer than 30 ft of his foe, and not going too far. This is because he calls it his sweet spot for attacking and dodging his foes. His W/L/D record stands at 642/1/0. █Weakest Skill ▬ Hand to hand(Negative): He is not the best when it comes to hand to hand combat. Despite being swift with his attacks and swings, he always aims to get away from the on those who get too close. █Other Skills ▬ Durability: He is great at taking hits compared to the normal human. This is because of how often he fights that his skin has gotten used to the cuts and bruices. Hit & Run: His fights have almost always ended without a frontal confrontation because of a well-aimed throw with his many knives or a trap going off with him watching. He prefers to keep people and grimm at a distance of his knives. Deconstruction: He knows how to take people's bodies apart and drain the body of blood properly. This is because of how many he has killed and taken for their blood, that it's become a genuine hobby.

█BACKGROUND ▬ A clip plays on the video... it shows a courtroom with the case of: The People of Atlas vs. Akuryo Bekwood "Akuryo, you have been charged with 53 cases of 1st degree murder, 2 charges of aggravated assault of a police officer, resisting arrest, Kidnapping, and Robbery, how do you plea?" The judge asked. ".....You seem to be missing some of my other cases. 53 murders to you.... 642 to me... you're missing 589 other bodies." Akuryo responded, without a sense of smile or of remorse as the judge flinched and pointed the gavel at the man. "DO YOU HAVE NO SHAME?!" The judge cried. "What is shame to a man who murdered his parents at the age of 11?" Akuryo responded, catching the judge off-guard. "Or who was attacked by his older brother at 19 to be left with a hideous scar?" Akuryo continued, a cold heartless stare aimed at the man. "I live because I have a purpose.... and I will show it to you." He told the judge.
The camera feed cuts out for a second, popping in and out to show Akuryo breaking free from his bindings, a hideous laughter echoing through the room as blood, limbs, vicera were sent flying everywhere. The feed returns to normal, despite being covered in blood, it seemed visible enough to show Akuryo at the Judge's seat and the judge at the defendant's seat. "Order! Order in the court!" Akuryo cried out with laughter as he was banging a fist-clenched arm on the desk like a gavel. "THe results are in, the jury finds you guilty! And your sentence is death!" Akuryo told the horrified judge with glee before the murderer leapt from the Judge's seat, the feed cutting out at the sight of the arm's shoulder stump getting close to the judge's screaming mouth.
"The People of Atlas vs. Akuryo Bekwood had ended in tragedy as the man responsible for countless murders escaped the courtroom to leave no survivors. A total of 27 people were found torn to pieces and deep gashes left on torsos that remained mostly in tact. The killer is nowhere to be found and has been rumored to still be running amok, causing havoc where he rides. This has been Emilia, and I'm signing off." The video feed ends.

█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Black Durian █ ▬ A strange butterfly knife that has been known to appear more than it seems. The blade itself is strangely clean save for some dried blood in the cracks of the blood and the butterfly knife. It strangely gets larger and transforms itself into a hand crossbow that fires sharpened bolts. █Melee Form ▬ Melee Form █Ranged Form ▬ Ranged Form █Other Form(s) ▬ (Additional Forms) █Ammo Type ▬ Physical Ammunition(He carries 30 bolts at all times.) █ ▬ No distinct Drawbacks other than he has to manually reload it when it is in it's crossbow mode.

█ █ ╫ S E M B L A N C E ╫
█*NAME ▬ Dead Sense █*AURA COLOR ▬ Crimson Red, like Blood. █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ The ability of corruption, capable of affecting human and grim alike. He can exume dominion over certain people, forcing them to the will of his aura as it can slowly drain their life and eventually cripple them at the basic set. He can place the dominion upon himself, or on objects, but two things are clear, it will always emanate from an object/himself and that it will never affect him. All effects mentioned in this semblance set up are cumulative, and always start at the highest level unless stated otherwise. When he applies it to himself, he just emanates it while in order to apply it to an object he must have line of sight(EXCEPT for held items), HOWEVER to apply it to another body he HAS to damage them or draw blood. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ Dead Senses(See no Evil) : Akuryo can place his dominion and exume a radiating aura of pure darkness from his own person. The range reaches around 20 feet away from him, and those unaffected will lose sight of him due to the large amorphous sphere of darkness around him. Those inside of the range find themselves unable to see anything whatsoever, not even with their aura. █*LEVEL 1▬ Dead Senses(Hear and Speak no Evil) : Akuryo can now choose to exude his dominion on an object of his despire that has to be within 50 feet of his range, or upon himself. If he places it upon an object(Whether or not it is being held is relevant), the aura exudes a sphere of darkness ranging 20 feet that Akuryo can see through. If he exudes it from himself, instead he has an increased range of 50 feet. Those within the darkness of the object or within his range now can no longer see AND hear anything. Those unaffected however will be unable to hear Akuryo's movements if he's within the field of darkness. █*LEVEL 2▬ Dead Senses(Feel no Evil) : Akuryo's darkness extends further, becoming more dangerous than before. If placed upon an object, it's range has been increased to 50 feet around it. If placed upon himself, the range encroaches around at a total 100 feet sphere of darkness. Those within this darkness can no longer feel anything, their sense of touch has died and this can cause some to panic as they can't feel where they are, who they touch, essentially THEY CANNOT TELL WHAT THEY TOUCH. All that happens, is that they can only think. His aura at this point can now affect electronical equipment, such as mics, cameras, and the like. █*LEVEL 3 ▬ █*DRAWBACKS ▬ Akuryo must hold his breath if he ever uses his semblance and as such he has a different use of breathing compared to the normal. The following table matches his Level for the amount of AP he has. Level 0: 10 AP Level 1: 20 AP Level 2: 30 AP Level 3: 40 AP
However, when he holds his breath, he follows along this table as at each level his breathing is always at maximum. The level of his semblance matches the amount of AP used. Level 0: Drains 1 per post. Level 1: Drains 3 per post. Level 2: Drains 6 per post. Level 3: Drains 10 per post. If he runs out of points to spend on a higher level, it downgrades his effects to a lower level until he runs out. At this point, he cannot use his semblance anymore and must recuperate by taking deep breathes. When he isn't using his semblance, he recovers 6 AP(Air Points) per post. It takes a post to either create darkness OR to dispell his darkness; if he dispells it he begins a small coughing fit and will be unable to create another darkness in the same post.
IF THE OBJECT OF DARKNESS is located, if it is broken, picked up(with a person using aura, or covered with an opaque object, it will dispell the darkness BUT it will not cause Akuryo to have a coughing fit.
At Levels 0 and 1, Electronical Equipment are unaffected by the semblance alone.

█NATURAL ABILITIES █Primary Talent ▬ Trap-making, he knows how to not only make traps, but where to place them where they have the most effective range. He is especially good when it comes to blade-based traps(Like Buzz-Saws) █Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ Memories of the Vulture(Unlocked after Encounter with Lunia) : Akuryo regains some of his memories growing up as Victor and his true Talents. Akuryo/Victor's body is alot more controlled in how it's movements are processed, from being able to dedicate movement to being quiet to blistering fast attacks via throwing weapons or swiping with his daggers. His strength has waned from straying so far from his original life. █Other Talents ▬ He's able to hold his breath for up to one minute(10 posts normally) in order to go underwater or resurface. Accuracy Adept(Throwing Blades) : Having been training for most of his career as an assassin, he's gotten decent with his bladed weapons for throwing knives at his foes. He has higher odds to hit someone, aura or not, when throwing daggers, scalpels, knives, and butcher knives. █LEARNT ABILITIES █Strongest Skill ▬ Combat: He lives and breathes combat to the point where he has been hired as an assassin before to kill. However, where he shines is definitely mid-ranged combat, never getting closer than 30 ft of his foe, and not going too far. This is because he calls it his sweet spot for attacking and dodging his foes. His W/L/D record stands at 642/1/0. █Weakest Skill ▬ Hand to hand(Negative): He is not the best when it comes to hand to hand combat. Despite being swift with his attacks and swings, he always aims to get away from the on those who get too close. He knows basic combat attacks bare-handed but that's about it. █Other Skills ▬ Durability: He is great at taking hits compared to the normal human. This is because of how often he fights that his skin has gotten used to the cuts and bruises. Hit & Run: His fights have almost always ended without a frontal confrontation because of a well-aimed throw with his many knives or a trap going off with him watching. He prefers to keep people and grimm at a distance of his knives. Vulture Feathercount: Akuryo/Victor has made it a bit of a hobby and a developed skill to keep count of how many times people have done something. From how many bullets are used before being reloaded to how many knives he's thrown before he runs out. He uses this as a bit of a synopsis on how much ammo an enemy may have IF he's faught them before.

█ █ ╫ H I S T O R Y ╫
█BACKGROUND ▬ (Incoming True Backstory) Victor Breakheart was born to the destitute once great land of Mantle, along with his friends known as Elliot Payne and Beatrice Miona. When he was growing up, he had unnaturally platinum hair with his hazel eyes. Together the three grew up with whatever they could do for fun in the dark and poor city. They always aspired to be greater than where they were, better than the military that lived in the cloud city of Atlas. Each of them knew they had something special when they all ran into a big kid named Jeremiah Carraway. The lad had a crazy idea for these youngsters, and he was going to try and bully them into doing what he wanted! They each shut him down in their own way, with Victor throwing sand in his eyes, Beatrice kicking him in the no-no spot, and Elliot tackling him to shove him down and out of their way. They had each other, no need for someone who was bigger than them, and so long as they worked together, they could do anything.
It stayed like that as they grew up, soon moving out of Mantle as they managed to hide in one of the transports to get to the cloud city. If they were going to shine better than the Cloud City, then they needed to get there first and what better way than with teamwork! And once on the Atlas surface.... they were all caught due to someone who saw them....the brat Jeremiah had called the Atlas Police Department and ratted them out! They didn't want to get sent back so Victor, being the one to think for his team, told the Police that they wanted to join the Atlas Academy to help the people like they did, probably even better than they did. At first Elliot was not having it but after being told an ultimatum by the Police Officer himself, Elliot begrudgingly accepted and that they would temporarily be held in juvenile detention while awaiting the application process. During their time being held, they decided to better themselves via exercising and reading with all the new things they had to use here....better than going back to Mantle in Victor's opinion.
A month had passed while they remained in the detention center, with Elliot and Beatrice both looking more angry that Victor had gotten them both in this mess when news arrived, they had been accepted into the Academy despite their young age of 14 and were put into the classes post haste, each learning their own discipline sadly apart from one another as 4 years passed by. When they were finally of age and were put together as a team and dubbed Atlesian Huntsman, but they needed a name as a fourth person joined them, to which they were then dubbed the following Codename: V.L.T.E. Vulture. With Victor as their leader they were sent out on patrols, getting first hand combat experience to hunt down Grimm and with their weapons of Victor's throwing knives, Beatrice's Twin Atlas Dust Revolvers, Elliot's Tar-Based Flamethrower, and their new teammate "Traicurt" and his Thunder Fists they were able to take down everything they were thrown at. Two more years had passed before Victor, Elliot, and Beatrice all agreed they had no more time to practice and play huntsmen, this was now the chance they needed to prove they were better as they left Traicurt behind.
They spent another two years issuing out Vigilante Justice both in Atlas and in Mantle, killing Grimm and on occasions killing filthy humans. They were doing a good job of keeping the streets clean of both monsters and villainy till one day....they were asked to perform a job, with Victor of 22 years old willing to help as it was the right thing to do when the mission came to stopping a slave smuggling. On the night of the mission Victor went ahead to scout, leaping from the top of a cave with his aura active to land on the moving train from Mantle, his allies moving behind him as they landed on the later carts. Victor slipped in quietly as he looked around and was suddenly knocked in the back of the head with something fierce, dropping unconscious. When he awoke, he found himself bound by his hands with someone screaming beside him. He looked around only to find out he was blindfolded! He struggled in his bindings before he felt something burn....he screamed in horrible pain as he realized he had extremely hot tar placed on his back, but it seemed only to be a small amount. If it weren’t for his aura, he'd be dead by the time the fires died down as he could then hear a gunshot....three gunshots. Soon a voice spoke. "Should've left ya'll here to rot but I couldn't just let go....you all ******** with my plans from the very start and now you all are going to pay for it." He told them as Victor knew the voice, it was Traicurt but......he sounded much more familiar. A female voice followed, spitting at him that they didn't know who he was, that he was a monster for what he is doing!
The man known as Traicurt simply laughed as Victor noticed the bindings on his wrists were zip-ties. The heat from the fire to his back had weakened it mostly before the man spoke before revealing who he was....it was Jeremiah, the boy who failed to manipulate them and at first Victor and Beatrice were perplexed before he heard Beatrice asking for him to not to do this, and to not get close, calling him all sorts of names before he heard a sickening wet stabbing sound. Beatrice cried out, yet her voice was nothing but a gargled mess as the sound of metal hitting the floor could be heard. Victor braced his feet while the man got closer, removing Victor's eyes as he was hit with a blinding light before the man spoke, telling him it was his fault this happened while he saw a pilot light and the barrel of Elliot's flamethrower aimed at him. His eyes went wide but at that moment, he broke through the zip-tie and knocked the flamethrower away just as he pulled the trigger, hitting the wall with heated fire as Victor scrambled over to Beatrice, grabbing the dagger that he realized was his before he screamed and lunged at Jeremiah. The man was more of an expert at close combat, but the surprise from Victor's animalish lunge costed him his left eye before throwing Victor off of him, giving the man time to escape, covered in blood, his shirt torn, back damaged.
He never could make it far when the police started to make their attempts on him, only making him run further as he recognized the area around him. He was back in Mantle and with it, he hopped over into a nearby building and for three days straight, he fought....he fought using knives and guerilla tactics to take down the policemen that hunted him down like the animal he was because, when he figured out why himself, Jeremiah had lied to the police....tarnishing the Vulture's reputation and damning Victor as a murderer.
On the fourth day, after having killed a total of 53 police men and having lost his sense of sanity and self, he was finally captured, the military wanted him dead, but because of Atlas and Mantle crimes coinciding, they had to give him a trial, to ensure a proper execution.
A clip plays on the video... it shows a courtroom with the case of: The People of Atlas vs. Victor Breakheart "Victor, you have been charged with 55 cases of 1st degree murder, 2 charges of aggravated assault of a police officer, resisting arrest, Kidnapping, and Robbery, how do you plea?" The judge asked. "....You seem to be missing some of my other cases. 55 murders to you.... 642 to me... you're missing 587 other bodies." Victor responded, without a sense of smile or of remorse as the judge flinched and pointed the gavel at the man. "DO YOU HAVE NO SHAME?!" The judge cried. "What is shame to a man who murdered his parents at the age of 11?" Victor responded, a lie to them but to him they died due to a misunderstanding from him, catching the judge off-guard. A cold heartless stare aimed at the man as he realized what he had to do to survive now. "I live because I have a purpose....and I will show it to you." He told the judge.
The camera feed cuts out for a second, popping in and out to show Victor breaking free from his bindings, a hideous laughter echoing through the room as blood, limbs, and viscera were sent flying everywhere. The feed returns to normal, despite being covered in blood, it seemed visible enough to show Victor at the Judge's seat and the judge at the defendant's seat. "Order! Order in the court!" Victor cried out with laughter as he was banging a fist-clenched arm on the desk like a gavel. "The results are in; the jury finds you guilty! And your sentence is death!" Victor told the horrified judge with glee before the murderer leapt from the Judge's seat, the feed cutting out at the sight of the arm's shoulder stump getting close to the judge's screaming mouth.
"The People of Atlas vs. Victor Breakheart had ended in tragedy as the man responsible for countless murders escaped the courtroom to leave no survivors. A total of 27 people were found torn to pieces and deep gashes left on torsos that remained mostly intact. The killer is nowhere to be found and has been rumored to still be running amok, causing havoc where he rides. This has been Emilia, and I'm signing off." The video feed ends.
Meanwhile just at the outskirts of the Kingdom of Atlas, at the age of 22, Victor was standing at the vast sea towards Vale, his eyes empty before he looked down to his blood-crusted dagger, his clothing and limbs dried with blood before he finally fell to his knees. He tossed that old trusted Dagger of his out into the sea as he realized he had nowhere left to go here....nothing to comeback to now and was just about to throw himself off when he heard a voice. A young lad who seemed to be no older than he and was offering him an apple. Victor looked to the fellow before he took the apple and with a pleading look he asked....."Why?" but the answer was simple....."Because you look like you could use a fruit."
They exchanged as much pleasantries as possible, with Victor telling the boy what had happened to him for most of his life and that he was about to throw it all away due to what had just happened. With the boy instead insisting that Victor continues to live that life, and to follow in his footsteps....introducing himself as Solvit, Solvit Haatelis. With nothing better to accomplish now, Victor agreed to let him be a part of his life now, but with that new life, they needed to leave Atlas and change his appearance incase wanted posters started going out.
By the time they had arrived at Vale two years later, Victor had gone under a considerable change from both personality and his physical appearance. His knack for killing became more prone as people tried to hurt him or his friend, getting too close for their own good, or were simply assholes who deserved to die. His platinum hair had been cut short, his hair dyed a pitch black, while Solvit bought him contacts for him to use to cover his Hazel eyes with Scarlet Red appearance. He settled on a new name, to forsake his old one while he heard rumors of things happening in Atlas. He set up his own Morgue using a loan he got under his old name before killing the name dead....now being named Akuryo Beckwood. It was a new place, a change of face, but one thing was for sure, his killing days would never cease as he worked from Vale from now on for the final 3 years.
During those last three years, Solvit had helped him obtain a new dagger that could transform to help him kill from a distance, while Akuryo himself joined forces with a man named Ghost. He fought a man named Svafnir who stirred some of his old memories before they finally set out for their first mission together with a man named Zaffre. During that time however, Akuryo remembered something from his past that was long forgotten....during the two-year stint of working as a vigilante, he remembered the words from Elliot: 'Even embers can become a new blaze...that is my obligation. For you Akuryo....where true light exists, you will be the shadow to taint it. We exist because the world demands our services...good and evil we care not, for what we do is for the betterment of balance. Whether they like it or not' as he encountered Lunia. He has since made a mental vow to battle her once again....to taint her light with his darkened heart or maybe he sought the reverse.

█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Twin Black Durian █ ▬ A set of two butterfly knives that has been known to appear more than it seems. The blades itself is strangely clean save for some dried blood in the cracks of the blood and the butterfly knife. The curved handle of the first one open up with a tension wire to act as the drawstring while the blade folds back to slot with the other black durian to create the body of the crossbow, connecting to the other handle as it juts out the hair-trigger for the crossbow. █Melee Form ▬ Melee Form █Ranged Form ▬ Ranged Form █Other Form(s) ▬ (Additional Forms) █Ammo Type ▬ Physical Ammunition(He carries 30 bolts at all times.) █ ▬ Cannot transform into the hand crossbow without both black durians.
█OTHER WEAPONS █ ▬ 15 other Butterfly Knives on his Bandolier. █ ▬ █ ▬ █ITEMS █ ▬ A handkerchief █ ▬ Hacked Scroll(Untraceable) █ ▬

█*NAME ▬ Vulture's Pedestal █*AURA COLOR ▬ Crimson Red, like Blood. █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ The ability of corruption, capable of affecting human and grim alike. He can exude dominion over certain people, forcing them to the will of his aura as it can slowly drain their life and eventually cripple them at the basic set. He can summon his dominion via a pedestal, but two things are clear, it will always emanate from the pedestal and that it will never affect him. All effects mentioned in this semblance set up are cumulative, and always use the highest level. In order to call forth his dominion he must have line of sight of the spot. The Pedestal that houses his dominion can permanently be seen ONLY INSIDE of the darkness as it will be surrounded by a demon glyph. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ Vulture's Pedestal(See no Evil) : Akuryo can place his dominion and summon a radiating aura of pure darkness pedestal within 30 feet of his reach. The conjured darkness range reaches around 20 feet away from it, and those unaffected will lose sight of him due to the large amorphous sphere of darkness around him. Those inside of the range find themselves unable to see anything whatsoever, not even with their aura. While Akuryo is inside of his Darkness, he is considered invisible. █*LEVEL 1▬ Dead Senses(Hear and Speak no Evil) : Akuryo can now choose to exude his dominion by summoning his pedestal within 50 feet of his range. The aura exudes an amorphous sphere of darkness ranging 30 feet that only Akuryo can see/hear through. Others within the darkness now can no longer see AND hear anything. While Akuryo is inside of the darkness, any and all sound he makes are considered Silent. █*LEVEL 2▬ Vulture's Pedestal(Feel no Evil) : Akuryo's darkness extends further, becoming more dangerous than before. When summoned, it's range has been increased to 40 feet around it. Those within this darkness become unable to discern anything via touch, their sense of touch has dulled to the point that become unable to tell if what touched them was a fist, a hand, a blade, or a desk. His aura at this point can now affect electronical equipment, such as mics, cameras, and the like. █*LEVEL 3 ▬ Malicious Intent: Akuryo becomes able to truly control his darkness and at this level he is able to create hallucinogenic effects within his aura that he can see and know that they are false. These hallucinogenic effects include, but not limited too; creating False people in the dark that only those he dictates within the darkness can see, generate falsified sounds that only certain people in the darkness can hear, create false senses of touch on certain people within the darkness. This ability is equivalent to being forced to have your senses being manipulated with and against your will, causing such hallucinations to quickly appear that he can manipulate via mental thought. The range of the darkness from the pedestal is 50 feet around it at max power. HOWEVER: Those who are of true clear mind, who have practiced meditation, and/or have put themselves through such sensory deprivations are immune to this effect. █*DRAWBACKS ▬ His summoned pedestals can only last certain amount of times depending as to his level. All summoned Pedestals are at their strongest state. Level 0: 5 posts Level 1: 5 posts Level 2: 5 posts Level 3: 5 posts
He can only create a pedestal one at a time and once the pedestal either fades away or is tampered with, he must wait 4 posts before he can recast another pedestal.
His Pedestals can permanently be seen by any creature or being inside of the darkness, cannot be moved/destroyed. They are susceptible to being sealed by someone expending some of their aura as a sacrifice to the pedestal, thus causing it to fade away, having fed the 'Vulture'. The pedestal only takes sacrifice from anyone who is able to touch it physically with their hand. Weapons and ranged Aura attacks do not count and instead bounce off of it.
It takes a post to either create darkness OR to dispell his darkness(Be it by himself or by Someone else doing it).
If someone is a level higher than Akuryo, his semblance is "half" as effective on them. Examples: Level 0 against a level one, isn't complete blindness, but instead they can't see more than like five feet in front of them as an example. Level 1 used on level 2 would be that sounds are heavily muffled, and cant really be discerned as to what. Level 2 on a Level 3 will be mostly dulled sense of touch with the ability to discern what they feel, like they could tell they are being shot at or punched.
At Levels 0 and 1, Electronical Equipment are unaffected by the semblance alone.

Skilled with knives from the start and honing it to their utmost limit, while wielding Knives, Akuryo and Victor are unparrelleled by others.

█ █ ╫ H I S T O R Y ╫
█BACKGROUND ▬ (Incoming True Backstory) Victor Breakheart was born to the destitute once great land of Mantle, along with his friends known as Elliot Payne and Beatrice Miona. When he was growing up, he had unnaturally platinum hair with his hazel eyes. Together the three grew up with whatever they could do for fun in the dark and poor city. They always aspired to be greater than where they were, better than the military that lived in the cloud city of Atlas. Each of them knew they had something special when they all ran into a big kid named Jeremiah Carraway. The lad had a crazy idea for these youngsters, and he was going to try and bully them into doing what he wanted! They each shut him down in their own way, with Victor throwing sand in his eyes, Beatrice kicking him in the no-no spot, and Elliot tackling him to shove him down and out of their way. They had each other, no need for someone who was bigger than them, and so long as they worked together, they could do anything.
It stayed like that as they grew up, soon moving out of Mantle as they managed to hide in one of the transports to get to the cloud city. If they were going to shine better than the Cloud City, then they needed to get there first and what better way than with teamwork! And once on the Atlas surface.... they were all caught due to someone who saw them....the brat Jeremiah had called the Atlas Police Department and ratted them out! They didn't want to get sent back so Victor, being the one to think for his team, told the Police that they wanted to join the Atlas Academy to help the people like they did, probably even better than they did. At first Elliot was not having it but after being told an ultimatum by the Police Officer himself, Elliot begrudgingly accepted and that they would temporarily be held in juvenile detention while awaiting the application process. During their time being held, they decided to better themselves via exercising and reading with all the new things they had to use here....better than going back to Mantle in Victor's opinion.
A month had passed while they remained in the detention center, with Elliot and Beatrice both looking more angry that Victor had gotten them both in this mess when news arrived, they had been accepted into the Academy despite their young age of 14 and were put into the classes post haste, each learning their own discipline sadly apart from one another as 4 years passed by. When they were finally of age and were put together as a team and dubbed Atlesian Huntsman, but they needed a name as a fourth person joined them, to which they were then dubbed the following Codename: V.L.T.E. Vulture. With Victor as their leader they were sent out on patrols, getting first hand combat experience to hunt down Grimm and with their weapons of Victor's throwing knives, Beatrice's Twin Atlas Dust Revolvers, Elliot's Tar-Based Flamethrower, and their new teammate "Traicurt" and his Thunder Fists they were able to take down everything they were thrown at. Two more years had passed before Victor, Elliot, and Beatrice all agreed they had no more time to practice and play huntsmen, this was now the chance they needed to prove they were better as they left Traicurt behind.
They spent another two years issuing out Vigilante Justice both in Atlas and in Mantle, killing Grimm and on occasions killing filthy humans. They were doing a good job of keeping the streets clean of both monsters and villainy till one day....they were asked to perform a job, with Victor of 22 years old willing to help as it was the right thing to do when the mission came to stopping a slave smuggling. On the night of the mission Victor went ahead to scout, leaping from the top of a cave with his aura active to land on the moving train from Mantle, his allies moving behind him as they landed on the later carts. Victor slipped in quietly as he looked around and was suddenly knocked in the back of the head with something fierce, dropping unconscious. When he awoke, he found himself bound by his hands with someone screaming beside him. He looked around only to find out he was blindfolded! He struggled in his bindings before he felt something burn....he screamed in horrible pain as he realized he had extremely hot tar placed on his back, but it seemed only to be a small amount. If it weren’t for his aura, he'd be dead by the time the fires died down as he could then hear a gunshot....three gunshots. Soon a voice spoke. "Should've left ya'll here to rot but I couldn't just let go....you all ******** with my plans from the very start and now you all are going to pay for it." He told them as Victor knew the voice, it was Traicurt but......he sounded much more familiar. A female voice followed, spitting at him that they didn't know who he was, that he was a monster for what he is doing!
The man known as Traicurt simply laughed as Victor noticed the bindings on his wrists were zip-ties. The heat from the fire to his back had weakened it mostly before the man spoke before revealing who he was....it was Jeremiah, the boy who failed to manipulate them and at first Victor and Beatrice were perplexed before he heard Beatrice asking for him to not to do this, and to not get close, calling him all sorts of names before he heard a sickening wet stabbing sound. Beatrice cried out, yet her voice was nothing but a gargled mess as the sound of metal hitting the floor could be heard. Victor braced his feet while the man got closer, removing Victor's eyes as he was hit with a blinding light before the man spoke, telling him it was his fault this happened while he saw a pilot light and the barrel of Elliot's flamethrower aimed at him. His eyes went wide but at that moment, he broke through the zip-tie and knocked the flamethrower away just as he pulled the trigger, hitting the wall with heated fire as Victor scrambled over to Beatrice, grabbing the dagger that he realized was his before he screamed and lunged at Jeremiah. The man was more of an expert at close combat, but the surprise from Victor's animalish lunge costed him his left eye before throwing Victor off of him, giving the man time to escape, covered in blood, his shirt torn, back damaged.
He never could make it far when the police started to make their attempts on him, only making him run further as he recognized the area around him. He was back in Mantle and with it, he hopped over into a nearby building and for three days straight, he fought....he fought using knives and guerilla tactics to take down the policemen that hunted him down like the animal he was because, when he figured out why himself, Jeremiah had lied to the police....tarnishing the Vulture's reputation and damning Victor as a murderer.
On the fourth day, after having killed a total of 53 police men and having lost his sense of sanity and self, he was finally captured, the military wanted him dead, but because of Atlas and Mantle crimes coinciding, they had to give him a trial, to ensure a proper execution.
A clip plays on the video... it shows a courtroom with the case of: The People of Atlas vs. Victor Breakheart "Victor, you have been charged with 55 cases of 1st degree murder, 2 charges of aggravated assault of a police officer, resisting arrest, Kidnapping, and Robbery, how do you plea?" The judge asked. "....You seem to be missing some of my other cases. 55 murders to you.... 642 to me... you're missing 587 other bodies." Victor responded, without a sense of smile or of remorse as the judge flinched and pointed the gavel at the man. "DO YOU HAVE NO SHAME?!" The judge cried. "What is shame to a man who murdered his parents at the age of 11?" Victor responded, a lie to them but to him they died due to a misunderstanding from him, catching the judge off-guard. A cold heartless stare aimed at the man as he realized what he had to do to survive now. "I live because I have a purpose....and I will show it to you." He told the judge.
The camera feed cuts out for a second, popping in and out to show Victor breaking free from his bindings, a hideous laughter echoing through the room as blood, limbs, and viscera were sent flying everywhere. The feed returns to normal, despite being covered in blood, it seemed visible enough to show Victor at the Judge's seat and the judge at the defendant's seat. "Order! Order in the court!" Victor cried out with laughter as he was banging a fist-clenched arm on the desk like a gavel. "The results are in; the jury finds you guilty! And your sentence is death!" Victor told the horrified judge with glee before the murderer leapt from the Judge's seat, the feed cutting out at the sight of the arm's shoulder stump getting close to the judge's screaming mouth.
"The People of Atlas vs. Victor Breakheart had ended in tragedy as the man responsible for countless murders escaped the courtroom to leave no survivors. A total of 27 people were found torn to pieces and deep gashes left on torsos that remained mostly intact. The killer is nowhere to be found and has been rumored to still be running amok, causing havoc where he rides. This has been Emilia, and I'm signing off." The video feed ends.
Meanwhile just at the outskirts of the Kingdom of Atlas, at the age of 22, Victor was standing at the vast sea towards Vale, his eyes empty before he looked down to his blood-crusted dagger, his clothing and limbs dried with blood before he finally fell to his knees. He tossed that old trusted Dagger of his out into the sea as he realized he had nowhere left to go here....nothing to comeback to now and was just about to throw himself off when he heard a voice. A young lad who seemed to be no older than he and was offering him an apple. Victor looked to the fellow before he took the apple and with a pleading look he asked....."Why?" but the answer was simple....."Because you look like you could use a fruit."
They exchanged as much pleasantries as possible, with Victor telling the boy what had happened to him for most of his life and that he was about to throw it all away due to what had just happened. With the boy instead insisting that Victor continues to live that life, and to follow in his footsteps....introducing himself as Solvit, Solvit Haatelis. With nothing better to accomplish now, Victor agreed to let him be a part of his life now, but with that new life, they needed to leave Atlas and change his appearance incase wanted posters started going out.
By the time they had arrived at Vale two years later, Victor had gone under a considerable change from both personality and his physical appearance. His knack for killing became more prone as people tried to hurt him or his friend, getting too close for their own good, or were simply assholes who deserved to die. His platinum hair had been cut short, his hair dyed a pitch black, while Solvit bought him contacts for him to use to cover his Hazel eyes with Scarlet Red appearance. He settled on a new name, to forsake his old one while he heard rumors of things happening in Atlas. He set up his own Morgue using a loan he got under his old name before killing the name dead....now being named Akuryo Beckwood. It was a new place, a change of face, but one thing was for sure, his killing days would never cease as he worked from Vale from now on for the final 3 years.
During those last three years, Solvit had helped him obtain a new dagger that could transform to help him kill from a distance, while Akuryo himself joined forces with a man named Ghost. He fought a man named Svafnir who stirred some of his old memories before they finally set out for their first mission together with a man named Zaffre. During that time however, Akuryo remembered something from his past that was long forgotten....during the two-year stint of working as a vigilante, he remembered the words from Elliot: 'Even embers can become a new blaze...that is my obligation. For you Akuryo....where true light exists, you will be the shadow to taint it. We exist because the world demands our services...good and evil we care not, for what we do is for the betterment of balance. Whether they like it or not' as he encountered Lunia. He has since made a mental vow to battle her once again....to taint her light with his darkened heart or maybe he sought the reverse.

█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Twin Black Durian █ ▬ A set of two butterfly knives that has been known to appear more than it seems. The blades itself is strangely clean save for some dried blood in the cracks of the blood and the butterfly knife. The curved handle of the first one open up with a tension wire to act as the drawstring while the blade folds back to slot with the other black durian to create the body of the crossbow, connecting to the other handle as it juts out the hair-trigger for the crossbow. █Melee Form ▬ Melee Form █Ranged Form ▬ Ranged Form █Other Form(s) ▬ (Additional Forms) █Ammo Type ▬ Physical Ammunition(He carries 30 bolts at all times.) █ ▬ Cannot transform into the hand crossbow without both black durians.
█OTHER WEAPONS █ ▬ 20 other Types of Knives on his Bandolier. █ ▬ Bo-Staff(Gifted from Solvit) █ ▬ █ITEMS █ ▬ A handkerchief █ ▬ Hacked Scroll(Untraceable)(Lost) █ ▬ New Scroll
█ █ ╫ S E M B L A N C E ╫
█*NAME ▬ Vulture's Pedestal █*AURA COLOR ▬ Crimson Red, like Blood. █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ The ability of corruption, capable of affecting human and grim alike. He can exude dominion over certain people, forcing them to the will of his aura as it can slowly drain their life and eventually cripple them at the basic set. He can summon his dominion via a pedestal, but two things are clear, it will always emanate from the pedestal and that it will never affect him. All effects mentioned in this semblance set up are cumulative, and always use the highest level. In order to call forth his dominion he must have line of sight of the spot. The Pedestal that houses his dominion can permanently be seen ONLY INSIDE of the darkness as it will be surrounded by a demon glyph. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ Vulture's Pedestal(See no Evil) : Akuryo can place his dominion and summon a radiating aura of pure darkness pedestal within 30 feet of his reach. The conjured darkness range reaches around 20 feet away from it, and those unaffected will lose sight of him due to the large amorphous sphere of darkness around him. Those inside of the range find themselves unable to see anything whatsoever, not even with their aura. While Akuryo is inside of his Darkness, he is considered invisible. █*LEVEL 1▬ Dead Senses(Hear and Speak no Evil) : Akuryo can now choose to exude his dominion by summoning his pedestal within 50 feet of his range. The aura exudes an amorphous sphere of darkness ranging 30 feet that only Akuryo can see/hear through. Others within the darkness now can no longer see AND hear anything. While Akuryo is inside of the darkness, any and all sound he makes are considered Silent. █*LEVEL 2▬ Vulture's Pedestal(Feel no Evil) : Akuryo's darkness extends further, becoming more dangerous than before. When summoned, it's range has been increased to 40 feet around it. Those within this darkness become unable to discern anything via touch, their sense of touch has dulled to the point that become unable to tell if what touched them was a fist, a hand, a blade, or a desk. His aura at this point can now affect electronical equipment, such as mics, cameras, and the like. █*LEVEL 3 ▬ Malicious Intent: Akuryo becomes able to truly control his darkness and at this level he is able to create hallucinogenic effects within his aura that he can see and know that they are false. These hallucinogenic effects include, but not limited too; creating False people in the dark that only those he dictates within the darkness can see, generate falsified sounds that only certain people in the darkness can hear, create false senses of touch on certain people within the darkness. This ability is equivalent to being forced to have your senses being manipulated with and against your will, causing such hallucinations to quickly appear that he can manipulate via mental thought. The range of the darkness from the pedestal is 50 feet around it at max power. HOWEVER: Those who are of true clear mind, who have practiced meditation, and/or have put themselves through such sensory deprivations are immune to this effect. █*DRAWBACKS ▬ His summoned pedestals can only last certain amount of times depending as to his level. All summoned Pedestals are at their strongest state. Level 0: 5 posts Level 1: 5 posts Level 2: 5 posts Level 3: 5 posts
He can only create a pedestal one at a time and once the pedestal either fades away or is tampered with, he must wait 4 posts before he can recast another pedestal.
His Pedestals can permanently be seen by any creature or being inside of the darkness, cannot be moved/destroyed. They are susceptible to being sealed by someone expending some of their aura as a sacrifice to the pedestal, thus causing it to fade away, having fed the 'Vulture'. The pedestal only takes sacrifice from anyone who is able to touch it physically with their hand. Weapons and ranged Aura attacks do not count and instead bounce off of it.
It takes a post to either create darkness OR to dispell his darkness(Be it by himself or by Someone else doing it).
If someone is a level higher than Akuryo, his semblance is "half" as effective on them. Examples: Level 0 against a level one, isn't complete blindness, but instead they can't see more than like five feet in front of them as an example. Level 1 used on level 2 would be that sounds are heavily muffled, and cant really be discerned as to what. Level 2 on a Level 3 will be mostly dulled sense of touch with the ability to discern what they feel, like they could tell they are being shot at or punched.
At Levels 0 and 1, Electronical Equipment are unaffected by the semblance alone.

Whether that bodes good or ill for you is something we will see in our time together. While I usually have a knack for flair, i'll keep this much simple. I'll list any questions or concerns I have below on what needs to be done before we can get you approved, but i'll be free to contact on less... visible areas.
Judgement:
General:
1. Update your quotes
Inventory:
2. Give a blade length for your black durians, and the effective range of it in crossbow form. 3. Length of the bo-staff 4. Blade length of the 20 knives (or say you'll state in each thread how much he has/ their lengths).
Inventory:
5. I would take out mention of draining their lives in the general description as no ability in semblance reflects that. 6. Would just add, in drawbacks, that the pedestal automatically takes away some of someone's aura when touched with their hand. Since people figuring out they have to expend aura to dispel it may be a hard stretch.
∰-Conclusion
This is all I currently see the need to change/ be clarified for now. This does not mean it shall be the end of it, as more questions may arise as we progress and I may have missed something. I am willing to be flexible on some thing if given good reason to, and i'll be open for any discussion you have or if you need any help with this. Thank you for your taking the time to go through this, and I will post another judgement if necessary once we've gone through all this. Hopefully this will be the only judgement needed, and you can fully begin your adventure in beacon...whether pleasant or otherwise.

Each of them knew they had something special when they all ran into a big kid named Jeremiah Carraway. The lad had a crazy idea for these youngsters, and he was going to try and bully them into doing what he wanted! They each shut him down in their own way, with Victor throwing sand in his eyes, Beatrice kicking him in the no-no spot, and Elliot tackling him to shove him down and out of their way. They had each other, no need for someone who was bigger than them, and so long as they worked together, they could do anything.
It stayed like that as they grew up, soon moving out of Mantle as they managed to hide in one of the transports to get to the cloud city. If they were going to shine better than the Cloud City, then they needed to get there first and what better way than with teamwork! And once on the Atlas surface.... they were all caught due to someone who saw them....the brat Jeremiah had called the Atlas Police Department and ratted them out! They didn't want to get sent back so Victor, being the one to think for his team, told the Police that they wanted to join the Atlas Academy to help the people like they did, probably even better than they did. At first Elliot was not having it but after being told an ultimatum by the Police Officer himself, Elliot begrudgingly accepted and that they would temporarily be held in juvenile detention while awaiting the application process. During their time being held, they decided to better themselves via exercising and reading with all the new things they had to use here....better than going back to Mantle in Victor's opinion.
A month had passed while they remained in the detention center, with Elliot and Beatrice both looking more angry that Victor had gotten them both in this mess when news arrived, they had been accepted into the Academy despite their young age of 14 and were put into the classes post haste, each learning their own discipline sadly apart from one another as 4 years passed by. When they were finally of age and were put together as a team and dubbed Atlesian Huntsman, but they needed a name as a fourth person joined them, to which they were then dubbed the following Codename: V.L.T.E. Vulture. With Victor as their leader they were sent out on patrols, getting first hand combat experience to hunt down Grimm and with their weapons of Victor's throwing knives, Beatrice's Twin Atlas Dust Revolvers, Elliot's Tar-Based Flamethrower, and their new teammate "Traicurt" and his Thunder Fists they were able to take down everything they were thrown at. Two more years had passed before Victor, Elliot, and Beatrice all agreed they had no more time to practice and play huntsmen, this was now the chance they needed to prove they were better as they left Traicurt behind.
They spent another two years issuing out Vigilante Justice both in Atlas and in Mantle, killing Grimm and on occasions killing filthy humans. They were doing a good job of keeping the streets clean of both monsters and villainy till one day....they were asked to perform a job, with Victor of 22 years old willing to help as it was the right thing to do when the mission came to stopping a slave smuggling. On the night of the mission Victor went ahead to scout, leaping from the top of a cave with his aura active to land on the moving train from Mantle, his allies moving behind him as they landed on the later carts. Victor slipped in quietly as he looked around and was suddenly knocked in the back of the head with something fierce, dropping unconscious. When he awoke, he found himself bound by his hands with someone screaming beside him. He looked around only to find out he was blindfolded! He struggled in his bindings before he felt something burn....he screamed in horrible pain as he realized he had extremely hot tar placed on his back, but it seemed only to be a small amount. If it weren’t for his aura, he'd be dead by the time the fires died down as he could then hear a gunshot....three gunshots. Soon a voice spoke. "Should've left ya'll here to rot but I couldn't just let go....you all ******** with my plans from the very start and now you all are going to pay for it." He told them as Victor knew the voice, it was Traicurt but......he sounded much more familiar. A female voice followed, spitting at him that they didn't know who he was, that he was a monster for what he is doing!
The man known as Traicurt simply laughed as Victor noticed the bindings on his wrists were zip-ties. The heat from the fire to his back had weakened it mostly before the man spoke before revealing who he was....it was Jeremiah, the boy who failed to manipulate them and at first Victor and Beatrice were perplexed before he heard Beatrice asking for him to not to do this, and to not get close, calling him all sorts of names before he heard a sickening wet stabbing sound. Beatrice cried out, yet her voice was nothing but a gargled mess as the sound of metal hitting the floor could be heard. Victor braced his feet while the man got closer, removing Victor's eyes as he was hit with a blinding light before the man spoke, telling him it was his fault this happened while he saw a pilot light and the barrel of Elliot's flamethrower aimed at him. His eyes went wide but at that moment, he broke through the zip-tie and knocked the flamethrower away just as he pulled the trigger, hitting the wall with heated fire as Victor scrambled over to Beatrice, grabbing the dagger that he realized was his before he screamed and lunged at Jeremiah. The man was more of an expert at close combat, but the surprise from Victor's animalish lunge costed him his left eye before throwing Victor off of him, giving the man time to escape, covered in blood, his shirt torn, back damaged.
He never could make it far when the police started to make their attempts on him, only making him run further as he recognized the area around him. He was back in Mantle and with it, he hopped over into a nearby building and for three days straight, he fought....he fought using knives and guerilla tactics to take down the policemen that hunted him down like the animal he was because, when he figured out why himself, Jeremiah had lied to the police....tarnishing the Vulture's reputation and damning Victor as a murderer.
On the fourth day, after having killed a total of 53 police men and having lost his sense of sanity and self, he was finally captured, the military wanted him dead, but because of Atlas and Mantle crimes coinciding, they had to give him a trial, to ensure a proper execution.
A clip plays on the video... it shows a courtroom with the case of: The People of Atlas vs. Victor Breakheart "Victor, you have been charged with 55 cases of 1st degree murder, 2 charges of aggravated assault of a police officer, resisting arrest, Kidnapping, and Robbery, how do you plea?" The judge asked. "....You seem to be missing some of my other cases. 55 murders to you.... 642 to me... you're missing 587 other bodies." Victor responded, without a sense of smile or of remorse as the judge flinched and pointed the gavel at the man. "DO YOU HAVE NO SHAME?!" The judge cried. "What is shame to a man who murdered his parents at the age of 11?" Victor responded, a lie to them but to him they died due to a misunderstanding from him, catching the judge off-guard. A cold heartless stare aimed at the man as he realized what he had to do to survive now. "I live because I have a purpose....and I will show it to you." He told the judge.
The camera feed cuts out for a second, popping in and out to show Victor breaking free from his bindings, a hideous laughter echoing through the room as blood, limbs, and viscera were sent flying everywhere. The feed returns to normal, despite being covered in blood, it seemed visible enough to show Victor at the Judge's seat and the judge at the defendant's seat. "Order! Order in the court!" Victor cried out with laughter as he was banging a fist-clenched arm on the desk like a gavel. "The results are in; the jury finds you guilty! And your sentence is death!" Victor told the horrified judge with glee before the murderer leapt from the Judge's seat, the feed cutting out at the sight of the arm's shoulder stump getting close to the judge's screaming mouth.
"The People of Atlas vs. Victor Breakheart had ended in tragedy as the man responsible for countless murders escaped the courtroom to leave no survivors. A total of 27 people were found torn to pieces and deep gashes left on torsos that remained mostly intact. The killer is nowhere to be found and has been rumored to still be running amok, causing havoc where he rides. This has been Emilia, and I'm signing off." The video feed ends.
Meanwhile just at the outskirts of the Kingdom of Atlas, at the age of 22, Victor was standing at the vast sea towards Vale, his eyes empty before he looked down to his blood-crusted dagger, his clothing and limbs dried with blood before he finally fell to his knees. He tossed that old trusted Dagger of his out into the sea as he realized he had nowhere left to go here....nothing to comeback to now and was just about to throw himself off when he heard a voice. A young lad who seemed to be no older than he and was offering him an apple. Victor looked to the fellow before he took the apple and with a pleading look he asked....."Why?" but the answer was simple....."Because you look like you could use a fruit."
They exchanged as much pleasantries as possible, with Victor telling the boy what had happened to him for most of his life and that he was about to throw it all away due to what had just happened. With the boy instead insisting that Victor continues to live that life, and to follow in his footsteps....introducing himself as Solvit, Solvit Haatelis. With nothing better to accomplish now, Victor agreed to let him be a part of his life now, but with that new life, they needed to leave Atlas and change his appearance incase wanted posters started going out.
By the time they had arrived at Vale two years later, Victor had gone under a considerable change from both personality and his physical appearance. His knack for killing became more prone as people tried to hurt him or his friend, getting too close for their own good, or were simply assholes who deserved to die. His platinum hair had been cut short, his hair dyed a pitch black, while Solvit bought him contacts for him to use to cover his Hazel eyes with Scarlet Red appearance. He settled on a new name, to forsake his old one while he heard rumors of things happening in Atlas. He set up his own Morgue using a loan he got under his old name before killing the name dead....now being named Akuryo Beckwood. It was a new place, a change of face, but one thing was for sure, his killing days would never cease as he worked from Vale from now on for the final 3 years.
During those last three years, Solvit had helped him obtain a new dagger that could transform to help him kill from a distance, while Akuryo himself joined forces with a man named Ghost. He fought a man named Svafnir who stirred some of his old memories before they finally set out for their first mission together with a man named Zaffre. During that time however, Akuryo remembered something from his past that was long forgotten....during the two-year stint of working as a vigilante, he remembered the words from Elliot: 'Even embers can become a new blaze...that is my obligation. For you Akuryo....where true light exists, you will be the shadow to taint it. We exist because the world demands our services...good and evil we care not, for what we do is for the betterment of balance. Whether they like it or not' as he encountered Lunia. He has since made a mental vow to battle her once again....to taint her light with his darkened heart or maybe he sought the reverse.

█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Twin Black Durian █ ▬ A set of two butterfly knives that has been known to appear more than it seems. The blades itself is strangely clean save for some dried blood in the cracks of the blood and the butterfly knife. The curved handle of the first one open up with a tension wire to act as the drawstring while the blade folds back to slot with the other black durian to create the body of the crossbow, connecting to the other handle as it juts out the hair-trigger for the crossbow. █Melee Form ▬ Melee Form(Each Blade is measured between 13-30cm (5-12 inches)) █Ranged Form ▬ Ranged Form(Effective Range is upwards of 60ft(19m)) █Other Form(s) ▬ (Additional Forms) █Ammo Type ▬ Physical Ammunition(He carries 30 bolts at all times.) █ ▬ Cannot transform into the hand crossbow without both black durians.
█OTHER WEAPONS █ ▬ 20 other Types of Knives on his Bandolier.(They vary in sizes and length but the smallest being a standard Scalpel 10 Blade is about 2 inches in blade length with the largest being a standard dagger at blade length of 9 inches. A standard Cleaver can often be found amongst the knives at 7 inches in blade length.) █ ▬ Folded Bo-Staff(Gifted from Solvit)(Measures 6 feet in length) █ ▬ █ITEMS █ ▬ A handkerchief █ ▬ Hacked Scroll(Untraceable)(Lost) █ ▬ New Scroll
█ █ ╫ S E M B L A N C E ╫
█*NAME ▬ Vulture's Pedestal █*AURA COLOR ▬ Crimson Red, like Blood. █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ The ability of corruption, capable of affecting human and grim alike. He can exude dominion over certain people, forcing them to the will of his aura as it steals their senses. He can summon his dominion via a pedestal, but two things are clear, it will always emanate from the pedestal and that it will never affect him. All effects mentioned in this semblance set up are cumulative, and always use the highest level. In order to call forth his dominion he must have line of sight of the spot. The Pedestal that houses his dominion can permanently be seen ONLY INSIDE of the darkness as it will be surrounded by a demon glyph. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ Vulture's Pedestal(See no Evil) : Akuryo can place his dominion and summon a radiating aura of pure darkness pedestal within 30 feet of his reach. The conjured darkness range reaches around 20 feet away from it, and those unaffected will lose sight of him due to the large amorphous sphere of darkness around him. Those inside of the range find themselves unable to see anything whatsoever, not even with their aura. While Akuryo is inside of his Darkness, he is considered invisible. █*LEVEL 1▬ Dead Senses(Hear and Speak no Evil) : Akuryo can now choose to exude his dominion by summoning his pedestal within 50 feet of his range. The aura exudes an amorphous sphere of darkness ranging 30 feet that only Akuryo can see/hear through. Others within the darkness now can no longer see AND hear anything. While Akuryo is inside of the darkness, any and all sound he makes are considered Silent. █*LEVEL 2▬ Vulture's Pedestal(Feel no Evil) : Akuryo's darkness extends further, becoming more dangerous than before. When summoned, it's range has been increased to 40 feet around it. Those within this darkness become unable to discern anything via touch, their sense of touch has dulled to the point that become unable to tell if what touched them was a fist, a hand, a blade, or a desk. His aura at this point can now affect electronical equipment, such as mics, cameras, and the like. █*LEVEL 3 ▬ Madness(Control No Evil) : Akuryo in this state has powered his Darkness to the point of possibly being able to block out all Aura-related Talents/Skills along with all the other senses. While they are not completely stolen, they are completely inaccessible to anyone who specializes in Aura-related abilities. Examples of such abilities are: Aura Sight, Aura Shield, and Power Strike. The range of the darkness from the pedestal is 50 feet around it at max power. █*DRAWBACKS ▬ His summoned pedestals can only last certain amount of times depending as to his level. All summoned Pedestals are at their strongest state. Level 0: 5 posts Level 1: 5 posts Level 2: 5 posts Level 3: 5 posts
He can only create a pedestal one at a time and once the pedestal either fades away or is tampered with, he must wait 4 posts before he can recast another pedestal.
His Pedestals can permanently be seen by any creature or being inside of the darkness, however they are capable of being destroyed. A few strong hits from anyone with Strength of Other Talent or higher will break this Pedestal with ease, dispelling the darkness.
It takes a post to either create darkness OR to dispell his darkness(Be it by himself or by Someone else doing it).
If someone is a level higher than Akuryo, his semblance is "half" as effective on them. Examples: Level 0 against a level one, isn't complete blindness, but instead they can't see more than like five feet in front of them as an example. Level 1 used on level 2 would be that sounds are heavily muffled, and cant really be discerned as to what. Level 2 on a Level 3 will be mostly dulled sense of touch with the ability to discern what they feel, like they could tell they are being shot at or punched.
Before Level 3, Akuryo and his Pedestal are the only sources of Aura inside of the darkness. However, those with Aura Sight must be within the Darkness to be able to detect Akuryo or his Pedestal.
At Levels 0 and 1, Electronical Equipment are unaffected by the semblance alone.
The one Bodily Sense that is never stolen in this semblance is Scent.

█ █ ╫ A R C H E T Y P E ╫
█NATURAL ABILITIES █Primary Talent ▬ True Master of Vulture Combat(Unlocked after Dating Chloris) : A memory as old as time unlocked between both Victor and Akuryo. Skilled with his claws from the start and honing it to their utmost limit along with his throwing knives, while wielding any knife or using his claws, Akuryo and Victor are unparalleled by others. His attack speed is staggeringly fast. █Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ Memories of the Vulture(Unlocked after Encounter with Lunia) : Akuryo regains some of his memories growing up as Victor and his true Talents. Akuryo/Victor's body is alot more focused and dizzying in it's movements, able to move more quietly than anything else compared to the common man. █Other Talents ▬ Faded Strength: Akuryo and Victor's strength has returned, but at a lower level, granting him a deadlift capacity of 800 lbs Deception: Akuryo and Victor were both natural-born thinkers, and as such know how to lie in order to maintain their identities from one another. No one can tell who is who when one or the other are in the lead. █LEARNT ABILITIES █Strongest Skill ▬ Vulture's Training: Eyes and Ears : More memories of his past has surfaced, leading him to recall how he fought on the field. He no longer has the need to manipulate the combat to his advantage as he is aware of his surroundings consistently, his hearing and senses much better than humans normally would be.(Up to 60ft away, he cannot be surprised by enemies.) █Weakest Skill ▬ Predictable: Despite his stealth, attack speed, and everything designed around combat, he is rather predictable in terms of wind-ups and usually falling into a rhythm. █Other Skills ▬ Durability: He is great at taking hits compared to the normal human. This is because of how often he fights that his skin has gotten used to the cuts and bruises. Reaction Speed: While not super fast, Victor's eyes haven't gotten him killed, and if he can see something coming, he has better odds of evading the attack, or blocking it in time compared to other humans. Vulture Feathercount : Akuryo/Victor has made it a bit of a hobby and a developed skill to keep count of how many times people have done something. From how many bullets are used before being reloaded to how many knives he's thrown before he runs out. He uses this as a bit of a synopsis on how much ammo an enemy may have IF he's faught them before.
█LIKES █ ▬ (Dismemberment and Murder) / {Watching the Rain} █ ▬ (People who understand his Ideals) / {Chloris} █ ▬ (Blood) / {Purple Shield} █ ▬ (His Bone Butterfly Knife) / {The Purple Shield Plant} █ ▬ (Bats) / {Jellyfish} █DISLIKES █ ▬ (Living Beings) / {Akuryo} █ ▬ (Broccoli) / {Blood} █ ▬ (Guns) / {Guns} █ ▬ (Rats) / {Sharks} █ ▬ (Fire) / {Death} █PERSONALITY TRAITS █Nature ▬ (He is not right in the head, he is clearly demented enough to think that killing is just apart of nature and it is his job to deliver it while he lives and breathes. He thinks himself as someone people should follow, and those he deems to die, shall die. It is that simple as he also enjoys drinking the blood of others. He revels in blood, revels in murder, he revels... for pure enjoyment. He doesn't kill without reason, and will not stab someone for the sake of stabbing.) {Cool headed and Rational, Victor knows when things are in the wrong and is willing to call things out when they are. He is a bit blunt, but a nervous blunt.} █Vernacular ▬ (He normally speaks in a condensending type of voice, but when he is in combat, his condensending tone, is replaced with something strange, as if he was speaking as two different people as once to try and egg the person on.) {Victor is confident at times when he speaks, but other than that he's rather soft-spoken and his tone is usually only for those he is close to can hear.} █Positive Traits ▬ He can kill at a moment's notice, even when drinking a beer, because it's fun. He finds pleasure in examining his knives and sometimes creating bone daggers. {He's willing to help, and will correct any mistakes made by his more vicious half.} █Negative Traits ▬ He finds annoyance in people who talk big but do nothing... 'All bark and no bite.' {He has to hide who his evil half is, and will try to deny it's existance.}
█ █ ╫ H I S T O R Y ╫
█BACKGROUND ▬ (Incoming True Backstory) Victor Breakheart was born to the destitute once great land of Mantle, along with his friends known as Elliot Payne and Beatrice Miona. When he was growing up, he had unnaturally platinum hair with his hazel eyes. Together the three grew up with whatever they could do for fun in the dark and poor city. They always aspired to be greater than where they were, better than the military that lived in the cloud city of Atlas. Each of them knew they had something special when they all ran into a big kid named Jeremiah Carraway. The lad had a crazy idea for these youngsters, and he was going to try and bully them into doing what he wanted! They each shut him down in their own way, with Victor throwing sand in his eyes, Beatrice kicking him in the no-no spot, and Elliot tackling him to shove him down and out of their way. They had each other, no need for someone who was bigger than them, and so long as they worked together, they could do anything.
It stayed like that as they grew up, soon moving out of Mantle as they managed to hide in one of the transports to get to the cloud city. If they were going to shine better than the Cloud City, then they needed to get there first and what better way than with teamwork! And once on the Atlas surface.... they were all caught due to someone who saw them....the brat Jeremiah had called the Atlas Police Department and ratted them out! They didn't want to get sent back so Victor, being the one to think for his team, told the Police that they wanted to join the Atlas Academy to help the people like they did, probably even better than they did. At first Elliot was not having it but after being told an ultimatum by the Police Officer himself, Elliot begrudgingly accepted and that they would temporarily be held in juvenile detention while awaiting the application process. During their time being held, they decided to better themselves via exercising and reading with all the new things they had to use here....better than going back to Mantle in Victor's opinion.
A month had passed while they remained in the detention center, with Elliot and Beatrice both looking more angry that Victor had gotten them both in this mess when news arrived, they had been accepted into the Academy despite their young age of 14 and were put into the classes post haste, each learning their own discipline sadly apart from one another as 4 years passed by.

He settled on a new name, to forsake his old one while he heard rumors of things happening in Atlas. He set up his own Morgue using a loan he got under his old name before killing the name dead....now being named Akuryo Beckwood. It was a new place, a change of face, but one thing was for sure, his killing days would never cease as he worked from Vale from now on for the final 3 years.
During those last three years, Solvit had helped him obtain a new dagger that could transform to help him kill from a distance, while Akuryo himself joined forces with a man named Ghost. He fought a man named Svafnir who stirred some of his old memories before they finally set out for their first mission together with a man named Zaffre. During that time however, Akuryo remembered something from his past that was long forgotten....during the two-year stint of working as a vigilante, he remembered the words from Elliot: 'Even embers can become a new blaze...that is my obligation. For you Akuryo....where true light exists, you will be the shadow to taint it. We exist because the world demands our services...good and evil we care not, for what we do is for the betterment of balance. Whether they like it or not' as he encountered Lunia. He has since made a mental vow to battle her once again....to taint her light with his darkened heart or maybe he sought the reverse.

█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Vulture's Talons █ ▬ A Set of clawed gauntlets and a Pauldron shaped like the skull of a vulture, these weapons originate in the heart of Atlas and were found in Vale's black market. Victor's original weapon, he once mastered the use of these claws, he may once again master them. These claws and pauldron are able to extend into the "Ranged" form of a feathered hood and cloak. When transformed, the left gauntlet becomes attached to the cloak and becomes a firing mechanism, launching up to 4 sharp feather blades at a time. The cloak is entirely made of these Black Steel Feathers and acts as a shield for him via hardening up when Aura channels through it. █Melee Form ▬ Melee Form(Each Talon extends from the end of the finger up to 5cm and are razor sharp, capable of the thousand cuts torture.) █Ranged Form ▬ Added on Ranged Form(Effective Range is upwards of 35m(114ft)) █Other Form(s) ▬ (Additional Forms) █Ammo Type ▬ Physical Ammunition(The Wing itself is self-loading with bladed feathers with an ammo count of 40 blades) █ ▬ Weaknesses: The weapon's firing rate is slower than a standard military pistol. ▬ As the cloak form's feathers run out, so too does Victor's shield, once all 40 are done and gone, it will take up to two posts to reload the cloak from the carrying case on his back.
█OTHER WEAPONS █ ▬ 20 other Types of Knives on his Bandolier.(They vary in sizes and length but the smallest being a standard Scalpel 10 Blade is about 2 inches in blade length with the largest being a standard dagger at blade length of 9 inches. A standard Cleaver can often be found amongst the knives at 7 inches in blade length.) █ ▬ Folded Bo-Staff(Gifted from Solvit)(Measures 6 feet in length) █ ▬ █ITEMS █ ▬ A handkerchief █ ▬ Feather Blades(up to 120) █ ▬ New Scroll

█*NAME ▬ Vulture's Pedestal █*AURA COLOR ▬ Crimson Red, like Blood. █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ The ability of corruption, capable of affecting human and grim alike. He can exude dominion over certain people, forcing them to the will of his aura as it steals their senses. He can summon his dominion via a pedestal, but two things are clear, it will always emanate from the pedestal and that it will never affect him. All effects mentioned in this semblance set up are cumulative, and always use the highest level. In order to call forth his dominion he must have line of sight of the spot. The Pedestal that houses his dominion can permanently be seen ONLY INSIDE of the darkness as it will be surrounded by a demon glyph. █*LEVEL 0 ▬ Vulture's Pedestal(See no Evil) : Akuryo can place his dominion and summon a radiating aura of pure darkness pedestal within 30 feet of his reach. The conjured darkness range reaches around 20 feet away from it, and those unaffected will lose sight of him due to the large amorphous sphere of darkness around him. Those inside of the range find themselves unable to see anything whatsoever, not even with their aura. While Akuryo is inside of his Darkness, he is considered invisible. █*LEVEL 1▬ Dead Senses(Hear and Speak no Evil) : Akuryo can now choose to exude his dominion by summoning his pedestal within 50 feet of his range. The aura exudes an amorphous sphere of darkness ranging 30 feet that only Akuryo can see/hear through. Others within the darkness now can no longer see AND hear anything. While Akuryo is inside of the darkness, any and all sound he makes are considered Silent. █*LEVEL 2▬ Vulture's Pedestal(Feel no Evil) : Akuryo's darkness extends further, becoming more dangerous than before. When summoned, it's range has been increased to 40 feet around it. Those within this darkness become unable to discern anything via touch, their sense of touch has dulled to the point that become unable to tell if what touched them was a fist, a hand, a blade, or a desk. His aura at this point can now affect electronical equipment, such as mics, cameras, and the like. █*LEVEL 3 ▬ Madness(Control No Evil) : Akuryo in this state has powered his Darkness to the point of possibly being able to block out all Aura-related Talents/Skills along with all the other senses. While they are not completely stolen, they are completely inaccessible to anyone who specializes in Aura-related abilities. Examples of such abilities are: Aura Sight, Aura Shield, and Power Strike. The range of the darkness from the pedestal is 50 feet around it at max power. █*DRAWBACKS ▬ His summoned pedestals can only last certain amount of times depending as to his level. All summoned Pedestals are at their strongest state. Level 0: 5 posts Level 1: 5 posts Level 2: 5 posts Level 3: 5 posts
He can only create a pedestal one at a time and once the pedestal either fades away or is tampered with, he must wait 4 posts before he can recast another pedestal.
His Pedestals can permanently be seen by any creature or being inside of the darkness, however they are capable of being destroyed. A few strong hits from anyone with Strength of Other Talent or higher will break this Pedestal with ease, dispelling the darkness.
It takes a post to either create darkness OR to dispell his darkness(Be it by himself or by Someone else doing it).
If someone is a level higher than Akuryo, his semblance is "half" as effective on them. Examples: Level 0 against a level one, isn't complete blindness, but instead they can't see more than like five feet in front of them as an example. Level 1 used on level 2 would be that sounds are heavily muffled, and cant really be discerned as to what. Level 2 on a Level 3 will be mostly dulled sense of touch with the ability to discern what they feel, like they could tell they are being shot at or punched.
Before Level 3, Akuryo and his Pedestal are the only sources of Aura inside of the darkness. However, those with Aura Sight must be within the Darkness to be able to detect Akuryo or his Pedestal.
At Levels 0 and 1, Electronical Equipment are unaffected by the semblance alone.
The one Bodily Sense that is never stolen in this semblance is Scent.
