█HAIR ▬ White. Dyed with red, black, and some ash-grey
█CLOTHING ▬ His clothing consists of many different things! He can sometimes wear something flamboyant, and colorful to draw attention towards himself. Other times? He dresses in dull browns and blacks to be slick and sly, with a smile to persuade and eyes to peer into the soul of the poor victim to look into them. Through this, he also wears black gloves, sometimes with fingers, sometimes without, so he can touch things as he wished without the worry of prints. Although he has yet to reveal, nor show any resemblance of his tribe’s culture. Instead of long and flowing clothing, he wears tight fitting clothes, not revealing too much skin, but revealing enough to sway the ladies!
█ACCESSORIES ▬ He doesn’t often wear trinkets, but when he does, they’re often rings, or earrings, as well as different symbols of gods to rile up those who he doesn’t like very well! █EYES ▬Yellow
█BUILD ▬ He’s fairly small, and his build isn’t too muscular. He’s rather lean, but not bulging in many places. It seems he could even fit into women’s clothing if he didn’t have such a masculine face and voice.
█TATTOOS ▬ None!
█SCARS ▬ A few on his legs from bramble, other than that? Nope!
█MARKINGS/FAUNUS FEATURES ▬ A white, bushy tail and fox eyes. However, the tail is often covered and his hair a variety of colors, sometimes even the entire spectrum of colors in strands.
█ █ ╫ A R C H E T Y P E ╫
█NATURAL ABILITIES
█Primary Talent ▬ Deception/Persuasion, truly in light of his floater lifestyle, he has always been good at coming up with lies, or sewing false realities with his words. Whether it be to persuade a person into buying something, or getting someone to do work for him, he managed to twist words and confuse others. This is a reason why he simply did not fit in, why work when others could do it for you? Why work hard when they’re so dumb to fall for anything!
█Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ Sly Smell. Foxes have been known to have an extremely strong sense of smell, yet, the nose of Tatsuda is defected, yet the same as most foxes. He has an increased sense of smell, yet not as much as the other of his tribe. His smell has only increased slightly, 2 times that of a human. He can pick up specific pheromones that are related to stress, or danger, this allows him to pick up on lies, or distress with a person rather easily as long as they’re within 2 yards of the person. Although with this, pungent smells are awful in odor, enough to make him gag, or even throw up if it would make a normal person gag.
█Other Talents ▬
Quick Fingers, he has a natural ability with being sly, his hands are nimble, the coordination he has with his fingers matches those of an expert. This allows him to perform gestures with ease, or even pickpocket without others knowing. This also allows him to hide things rather easy while being searched. Playing cards with him is an aggravating thing.
Stealthy, in crowds, in darkness (even with faunus-vision) he can be hard to spot. With particular expertise in sneaking into places, he has mastered the art of getting away without his face or body being noticed. He claims himself a second storyman, which he lives up to in his ability to sneak into homes and businesses and steal all they have.
█LEARNT ABILITIES
█Strongest Skill ▬ Forgery, most of anything having to deal with copying, he can do. Instead of honing a craft of his own, he fostered the craft that copied others’ hard work. Whether with painting, or pens, he can, with the proper resources, forge a large amount of documents with very few errors. With this, he can also speed up the process and make worse copies, but more of the thing he was copying. This allows his status as a con-man to be rather easy to hide from others. As well as picking up jobs here and there to forge documents, or rewrite them to get his way, or another person’s way.
█Weakest Skill ▬ Combat, in general, he is not one for combat. With the exception to sneak attacks, underhanded maneuvers and such, he cannot fight. If he is caught in a situation where he has to fight, it is of pretty good odds that he will lose, die, or flee successfully. This means that he has to find the best ways to avoid combat, and convince them to not fight- he’s better at that than anything to deal with physical combat.
█Other Skills ▬ (Pick up to 3) Insightful. With his Faunus ability, and this, it is extremely hard to lie, or scam, Tatsuda picks apart sentences to the bare letter, and perceives the world much differently than others. This allows him to naturally be able to find inconsistencies with people’s dialect, words, and so forth.
Aura Masking. The user spends their aura to help mask their presence from those who may be seeking them. This allows the person to suppress their Aura Signature from those who may be using it to hunt the user down. It allows them to not only hide in plain sight- but also hide the use of his aura.
Retreat! His only skill that relates to combat, he is the master of GTFO, if he finds a moment, even the smallest moment of possible escape from combat, he’ll take it and run with it. This is for grim, people, or even conversations that pose a risk to his image, he will take. This includes running, lying, changing the subject or distraction to get away from the threat.
█DISLIKES █ ▬ Smart people, most people who hail from Atlas, █ ▬ Anything fried █ ▬ Anything that cuts...Scissors █ ▬ Foxes... █ ▬ The lack of money, his own tribe, Enclosed spaces without an exit
█PERSONALITY TRAITS
█Nature ▬ The fox known as Tatsuda has a complex with words, a great web of lies and truths that he has made to allow his safety, and his own profit. While he doesn’t have a mental illness, his paranoia has allowed himself to fall near insanity- but coming out of it an even greater threat. He is a compulsive liar, refining it into a strength that has yet to fail him. He uses this lying nature not only to manipulate others, but to gain a profit through scams and his own business operations. Manipulativeness, with greed, created a monster of the underworld. While Tatsuda doesn’t have complete greediness, to the point of desperation, he does have it. Swindling people out of their life sayings, then having them in his debt- of course, to further his own profit. However, his nature of safety, wealth, and deception has led him to be distant from people that he likes- and even more distant from the people that he came from. He has an extreme disdain for most of his tribe, actually, and being around them makes him quiet, and more irritable with those around him.
█Vernacular ▬ His voice is soft- but not feminine, nor masculine. It is quite ambiguous of gender. Some who have heard him speak call it soothing, but others who hear it say that his tones sound condescending- which they would be correct. His voice has more effects on people than his actions do more often than not.
█Positive Traits ▬ His personality gives him a number of positive traits relating to it. Whether you consider this a positive though, knowing his goals, is up to the reader to decide. He is a...character, the way he acts, it's almost like a performance all day and all night. However this also means that he has his slip ups- which can be comical most of the time. Most of the time, while he speaks, those who he is close to are calmed- and he uses this trait to protect himself from the angry- or the dull. He can also be very laid-back, allowing for others to feel comfortable around himself.
█Negative Traits ▬ Tatsuda isn’t a person known for his charity, and most of the time can be called greedy- and that is his biggest sin- greed. While it does not consume him, he allows it to make most of his decisions through business, and life. He also can be considered a coward, when it comes to a place where is confronted by something, he will try to find the quickest way out of that, even if it means hurting those close to him. However- this is caused by his laid-back attitude, for it makes him lazy (however not gluttonous) and can lead to him taking no action in situations where he’s needed. On top of his laziness, he can be seen as a person who is easily addicted. While not a personality trait- but a genetic one, the presence (after being exposed to it only once) will make him an addict, causing him to become the likes of animals.
█ █ ╫ H I S T O R Y ╫
█BACKGROUND ▬ Born into the Freikkre tribe in Atlas, his mother and father were excelling individuals. His father, a metalworker, known for his artistic, and functional crafts of steel and iron. His mother on the other hand, was known for her ability to speak- being as cunning as a fox some would say. At one point she manipulated the tribe’s officials and well- that is simply a story for another day. This tale is not of the predecessors, but the successor of the family. However, it would not be from noble ground. His father, upon becoming a father, fell into a depressive stupor- which brought the metalworker to alcohol. While he was young it wasn’t bad, but as Tatsuda aged, the drunkenness became worse and worse. His mother, who showed concern, tried to stop him- however, each time she failed. Over time, beginning at age 3, the father became abusive, screaming at both Tatsuda and the mother- it evolved into physical abuse and worse. As he grew older by 2 years...The worst had happened. In a drunken mess, the father tried to kill Tatsuda, blaming him for the shame of the family. However, the mother defended him- putting up a brave yet, depressive fight. However...The father did overpower her, and murdered her in the process before then, passing out in a drunken stupor as he had been known for doing. When others found the scene- they were taken aback, and throughout the father from the tribe and gave a ceremony for the mother, however- Tatsuda was nowhere to be seen. He had not run far, but he was hiding. He had heard screams and crying, heading his mother’s previous words of hide, he did so. Tatsuda didn’t move from his small space, in a barrel that they had kept in groups of three. One week passed, then two, then nearly three when someone finally found the nearly starved child, crying, and staring at the walls of the barrel. When he was taken out, he had small pressure wounds and a fear of small places, which he has today and refuses to get into a space where he doesn’t know how to get out of. He was placed in an orphanage- although his treatment never got any better. He couldn’t accept the death of his parents, he hated it- he hated his father! Why didn’t he die!? Why did his mother have to die! His hatred grew and grew, only marinating in the trauma of having no one but himself for an amount of time. From this place he moved from home to home, families offering to foster him- although, through 3 different families they all failed. He had a fixed perception of what a family was. He believed that all of them would fall apart as his own did- so he showed signs of irritability, until he snapped and lashed out on one of the fostering parent’s children, his own ‘sibling’. This is where it went from bad to worse, as he was removed from the system and out onto the streets. While he did slowly grow to have friends through his adolescence, he refused to have any social interaction until age 15, where he did hae some friends yet, sadly, this turned to be a falsehood. As his lack of craft put in the lowest of the population. Earning him the title of “Tats, the beaten” as not only children, but adults would take turns of beating the child near death. Which fueled his perception of others lying to him- which he took and ran with. His ‘craft’ doesn’t produce a product, but collects a profit from fools. While a young adult, he made profits by showing people the wilderness, on tours with false mythology- becoming a scam artist only to be shut down by officials of the tribe. By the time that the tribe was ready to move from Atlas to Vale, he was well enough ready to leave them, with a hate in his heart of Atlas, and of the tribe even greater. However, he did have friends of the tribe like Aya, which he felt bad for leaving, but this guilt didn’t last long. While he was on a month’s trip to Vale, he disappeared from the tribe- most thought he was dead, picked off by Grim, but he had replicated a map- on how to get to Vale. He used that to travel and survive for the month’s trip and once he arrived, he began business. Lying, cheating, swindling and even robbing people of their belongings through his deception. Soon, his past left him (even though he would never forget) and almost became a new person. He chose a new name, changed the color of or even hid the features of the tribe. He had started a new life, one of profit, laughter, lies, paranoia, crime, and pleasure. A changed life, a changed man, his goal was not to kill, but to be rich, wealthy, by any means necessary, and to enjoy the pleasures of it. In the past, this means many women- those who’ve had his children and him quickly disappearing. Being like his father and going on weeks and weeks of being drunk to bounce back, easily. His crime is not violence, but it is deceit, and a need for usefulness and money.

█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Flot Pekhoty █ ▬ These set of boots, stolen from Netami while he was still in the tribe, have been made to not only be a weapon, but to be a vehicle of escape. They are a set of steel boots, going a total of 3 inches past the ankle with various slots for small dust on the sides. Each of them a different color: Red, Yellow, Purple and Black, each of them for different kinds of dust that have their own uses.
Red- it causes the to erupt in a stream of flames enough to propel the user off of the ground for a short time, causing an intense boost of speed and short-term flight. It causes the user to be launched into the air 10 meters, with a speed of 10 M/s.This can also be used to burn foes that are too close to the user of these boots. This lasts for two turns per 2 small dust used in the boots.
Yellow- This allows the boots to send out a large pulse of electromagnetic energy, that both stuns cybernetics and muscles for a single turn. It reaches up to 5 meters. This is enough for him to stun a group of people for just the right amount of time for him to flee. This takes 2 yellow dust per use.
Black- The boots adhere to the surfaces that they touch, changing the direction that gravity affects the user. This is to either pull the user to a surface, or climb onto a surface that he normally wouldn’t be able to climb. This lasts 2 turns per 2 small dust.
Purple- the gravity around the boots lessen tremendously, allowing the user and the boots to levitate, and float upward for one turn, allowing them to silently get up surfaces, allowing him to sneak onto roofs, or get to areas without tremendous physical force. This lasts 2 turns per 2 small dust.
█Melee Form ▬ It’s a pair of boots, all of the ammo has a different effect, this applies to both melee and ranged forms.
█Ranged Form ▬ It’s a pair of boots, all of the ammo has a different effect, this applies to both melee and ranged forms.
█Other Form(s) ▬ There are no other forms...they’re boots.
█Ammo Type ▬ Physical- The four listed dust types
█ ▬ The downsides of these boots, however, is that they’re useful in situations, not exactly for combat. While they can be used for combat, they’re not the most effective unless close to an enemy. With this, they take a large amount of dust per the use of the weapon’s abilities- causing the user to have to decide whether using the boots is worth the cost of the dust. The boots also are very distinct for being metal, meaning that they are prone to these effects: Yellow dust will cause the user’s feet to go numb for one turn after the use, Red dust will cause intense overheating after prolonged use- causing up to 3rd degree burns after 2 uses consecutively and the other two dusts can damage the metal that the boots are made out of.
█OTHER WEAPONS █ ▬ 2 switchblades (4 inch blades) █ ▬One Revolver (Physical ammo) (Clip size- 6 bullets) Accurate up to 25 meters
█ ▬ █ITEMS █ ▬ Scroll █ ▬ Painting Supplies █ ▬ Forgery Kit █ ▬ Rope, Hooks (Almost everything you need to steal from museums and other artistic establishments)
█ █ ╫ S E M B L A N C E ╫
█*NAME ▬ Copycat █*AURA COLOR ▬ Light Grey █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ This semblance makes a mockery of anyone who makes anything originally. For the entire purpose of it is to make identical, physical copies of objects that he touches. This semblance is great for theft, easily covering up something he stole with a replica that his semblance made without much effort. Due to the semblance being about not only hiding, but scamming people out of their original crafts, it is nearly invisible! Unless someone has their strongest skill be perception, they won’t be able to tell when he is using his aura. The level that he is only changes two things: How many things he can create in a timeframe, and the functionality of the things he creates
█*LEVEL 0 ▬ (0-99 Posts) His base ability, he can create most things as replicas, however, they will not function. Whilst he can make a gun, the gun will not be able to shoot bullets, and a bomb will not be able to explode, even though they look and feel completely real. He can make up to 2 replicas per turn, as long as they do not weigh more than his own weight.
█*LEVEL 1▬ (100-199) The things he can create now are semi-functional, while he cannot create anything more complex than a rifle, he can make things that now do simple functions (if he can find them). However he still cannot create explosives that have the role other than smaller explosives (firecrackers and the like). However he can now make 3 replicas per turn, as long as they don’t exceed 150 pounds. (Explosive are effective in a 5 feet radius)
█*LEVEL 2▬ (200-299) The things he can now create are fully functional. He can create things that do more complex functions like a computer and electronic devices. With this he can make medium-sized explosives that he has touched (like anything else) that has the power of Grenade. He now can make 4 replicas per turn as long as they don’t exceed 250 pounds. The effective range of explosives is now a 10 feet radius
█*LEVEL 3 ▬ (300-399 posts) His replicas now have reached their pinnacle, working the same as the object that he has touched and used his aura on. This includes (but is not restricted to) Droids, large explosives and small vehicles. He can make 5 replicas per turn and they cannot exceed 350 pounds. Effective explosive radius is now 15 feet.
█*DRAWBACKS ▬ The greatest weakness of this is the user, the more items he creates in a row, the more his aura runs low which weakens his ability to guard and block against attacks. The larger the object, the more aura it uses, the fuel for the replicas is his aura, and nothing else. With this, the semblance has to be used within 10 minutes of touching the object that he wanted to make replicas. With this the objects will never be the exact same as the one that it copied, however, the differences are extremely small, and get less noticable the higher the level of semblance. However, these differences can be noticed if they have a strong perception skill.
█HAIR ▬ White. Dyed with red, black, and some ash-grey
█CLOTHING ▬ His clothing consists of many different things! He can sometimes wear something flamboyant, and colorful to draw attention towards himself. Other times? He dresses in dull browns and blacks to be slick and sly, with a smile to persuade and eyes to peer into the soul of the poor victim to look into them. Through this, he also wears black gloves, sometimes with fingers, sometimes without, so he can touch things as he wished without the worry of prints. Although he has yet to reveal, nor show any resemblance of his tribe’s culture.

█BUILD ▬ He’s fairly small, and his build isn’t too muscular. He’s rather lean, but not bulging in many places. It seems he could even fit into women’s clothing if he didn’t have such a masculine face and voice.
█TATTOOS ▬ None!
█SCARS ▬ A few on his legs from bramble, other than that? Nope!
█MARKINGS/FAUNUS FEATURES ▬ A white, bushy tail and fox eyes. However, the tail is often covered and his hair a variety of colors, sometimes even the entire spectrum of colors in strands.

█Primary Talent ▬ Deception/Persuasion, truly in light of his floater lifestyle, he has always been good at coming up with lies, or sewing false realities with his words.

This is a reason why he simply did not fit in, why work when others could do it for you? Why work hard when they’re so dumb to fall for anything!
█Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ Sly Smell. Foxes have been known to have an extremely strong sense of smell, yet, the nose of Tatsuda is defected, yet the same as most foxes. He has an increased sense of smell, yet not as much as the other of his tribe. His smell is only increased slightly, 2 times that of a human, enough to depict images through scent within 10-12 yards of himself, or half of the distances with thin walls. Yet, the closer they get, the more detailed the image of them are, to the point where his smell and his eyes overlap the images, allowing him to tell the slight differences that the visuals wouldn’t be able to tell. Picking up specific pheromones that are related to stress, or danger, this allows him to pick up on lies, or distress with a person rather easily as long as they’re within 2 yards of the person. Although with this, pungent smells are awful in odor, enough to make him gag, or even throw up if it would make a normal person gag.
█Other Talents ▬

This allows him to naturally be able to find inconsistencies with people’s dialect, words, and so forth.
Stealth, unless having a skill that allows tracking a person with intricate details, Tatsuda cannot be tracked. This aids him in sneaking into places, even if they have cameras and devices made for spotting intruders. He gained this skill by learning how to sneak around grim- and then further applying the dull, and slow, movements one must do to blend in with crowds, and staying out of sight from those searching for him.
Retreat! His only skill that relates to combat, he is the master of GTFO, if he finds a moment, even the smallest moment of possible escape from combat, he’ll take it and run with it. This is for grim, people, or even conversations that pose a risk to his image, he will take. This includes running, lying, changing the subject or distraction to get away from the threat.
█DISLIKES █ ▬ Smart people, most people who hail from Atlas █ ▬ Anything fried █ ▬ Anything that cuts...Scissors █ ▬ Foxes... █ ▬ The lack of money, Atlas reopening
█PERSONALITY TRAITS
█Nature ▬ The fox known as Tatsuda has a complex with words, a great web of lies and truths that he has made to allow his safety, and his own profit. While he doesn’t have a mental illness, his paranoia has allowed himself to fall near insanity- but coming out of it an even greater threat. He is a compulsive liar, refining it into a strength that has yet to fail him. He uses this lying nature not only to manipulate others, but to gain a profit through scams and his own business operations. Manipulativeness, with greed, created a monster of the underworld. While Tatsuda doesn’t have complete greediness, to the point of desperation, he does have it. Swindling people out of their life sayings, then having them in his debt- of course, to further his own profit. However, his nature of safety, wealth, and deception has led him to be distant from people that he likes- and even more distant from the people that he came from. He has an extreme disdain for most of his tribe, actually, and being around them makes him quiet, and more irritable with those around him.
█Vernacular ▬ His voice is soft- but not feminine, nor masculine. It is quite ambiguous of gender. Some who have heard him speak call it soothing, but others who hear it say that his tones sound condescending- which they would be correct. His voice has more effects on people than his actions do more often than not.
█Positive Traits ▬ His personality gives him a number of positive traits relating to it. Whether you consider this a positive though, knowing his goals, is up to the reader to decide. He is a...character, the way he acts, it's almost like a performance all day and all night. However this also means that he has his slip ups- which can be comical most of the time. Most of the time, while he speaks, those who he is close to are calmed- and he uses this trait to protect himself from the angry- or the dull. He can also be very laid-back, allowing for others to feel comfortable around himself.
█Negative Traits ▬ Tatsuda isn’t a person known for his charity, and most of the time can be called greedy- and that is his biggest sin- greed. While it does not consume him, he allows it to make most of his decisions through business, and life. He also can be considered a coward, when it comes to a place where is confronted by something, he will try to find the quickest way out of that, even if it means hurting those close to him. However- this is caused by his laid-back attitude, for it makes him lazy (however not gluttonous) and can lead to him taking no action in situations where he’s needed. On top of his laziness, he can be seen as a person who is easily addicted. While not a personality trait- but a genetic one, the presence (after being exposed to it only once) will make him an addict, causing him to become the likes of animals.

█BACKGROUND ▬ Born into the Freikkre tribe in Atlas, his mother and father were excelling individuals. His father, a metalworker, known for his artistic, and functional crafts of steel and iron. His mother on the other hand, was known for her ability to speak- being as cunning as a fox some would say. At one point she manipulated the tribe’s officials and well- that is simply a story for another day. This tale is not of the predecessors, but the successor of the family.

He used that to travel and survive for the month’s trip and once he arrived, he began business. Lying, cheating, swindling and even robbing people of their belongings through his deception. Soon, his past left him (even though he would never forget) and almost became a new person. He chose a new name, changed the color of or even hid the features of the tribe. He had started a new life, one of profit, laughter, lies, paranoia, crime, and pleasure. A changed life, a changed man, his goal was not to kill, but to be rich, wealthy, by any means necessary, and to enjoy the pleasures of it. In the past, this means, many women- those who’ve had his children and him quickly disappearing. Being like his father and going on weeks and weeks of being drunk to bounce back, easily. His crime is not violence, but it is deceit, and a need for usefulness and money.

█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Flot Pekhoty █ ▬ These set of boots, stolen from Netami while he was still in the tribe, have been made to not only be a weapon, but to be a vehicle of escape. They are a set of steel boots, going a total of 3 inches past the ankle with various slots for small dust on the sides. Each of them a different color: Red, Yellow, Purple and Black, each of them for different kinds of dust that have their own uses.
Red- it causes the to erupt in a stream of flames enough to propel the user off of the ground for a short time, causing an intense boost of speed and short-term flight. This can also be used to burn foes that are to close to the user of these boots. This lasts for two turns per 2 small dust used in the boots.
Yellow- This allows the boots to send out a large pulse of electromagnetic energy, that both stuns cybernetics and muscles for a single turn. This is enough for him to stun a group of people for just the right amount of time for him to flee. This takes 2 yellow dust per use.
Black- The boots adhere to the surfaces that they touch, changing the direction that gravity affects the user. This is to either pull the user to a surface, or climb onto a surface that he normally wouldn’t be able to climb. This lasts 2 turns per 2 small dust.
Purple- the gravity around the boots lessen tremendously, allowing the user and the boots to levitate, and float upward for one turn, allowing them to silently get up surfaces, allowing him to sneak onto roofs, or get to areas without tremendous physical force.
█Melee Form ▬ It’s a pair of boots, all of the ammo has a different effect, this applies to both melee and ranged forms.
█Ranged Form ▬ It’s a pair of boots, all of the ammo has a different effect, this applies to both melee and ranged forms.
█Other Form(s) ▬ There are no other forms...they’re boots.
█Ammo Type ▬ Physical- The four listed dust types
█ ▬ The downsides of these boots, however, is that they’re useful in situations, not exactly for combat. While they can be used for combat, they’re not the most effective unless close to an enemy. With this, they take a large amount of dust per the use of the weapon’s abilities- causing the user to have to decide whether using the boots is worth the cost of the dust. The boots also are very distinct for being metal, meaning that they are prone to these effects: Yellow dust will cause the user’s feet to go dumb for one turn after the use, Red dust will cause intense overheating after prolonged use- causing up to 3rd degree burns after 2 uses consecutively and the other two dusts can damage the metal that the boots are made out of.
█OTHER WEAPONS █ ▬ 2 switchblades █ ▬One Revolver (Physical ammo) █ ▬ █ITEMS █ ▬ Scroll █ ▬ Painting Supplies █ ▬ Forgery Kit █ ▬ Rope, Hooks (Almost everything you need to steal from museums and other artistic establishments)

█*NAME ▬ Copycat █*AURA COLOR ▬ Clear/Transparent █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ This semblance makes a mockery of anyone who makes anything originally. For the entire purpose of it is to make identical, physical copies of objects that he touches. This semblance is great for theft, easily covering up something he stole with a replica that his semblance made without much effort. Due to the semblance being about not only hiding, but scamming people out of their original crafts, it is nearly invisible! Unless someone has their strongest skill be perception, they won’t be able to tell when he is using his aura. The level that he is only changes two things: How many things he can create in a timeframe, and the functionality of the things he creates █*LEVEL 0 ▬ His base ability, he can create most things as replicas, however, they will not function. Whilst he can make a gun, the gun will not be able to shoot bullets, and a bomb will not be able to explode, even though they look and feel completely real. He can make up to 15 replicas in an hour, as long as they do not weigh more than his own weight. █*LEVEL 1▬ The things he can create now are semi-functional, while he cannot create anything more complex than a rifle, he can make things that now do simple functions (if he can find them). However he still cannot create explosives that have the role other than smaller explosives (firecrackers and the like). However he can now make 25 replicas in an hour, as long as they don’t exceed 150 pounds. █*LEVEL 2▬ The things he can now create are fully functional. He can create things that do more complex functions like a computer and electronic devices. With this he can make medium-sized explosives that he has touched (like anything else) that has the power of Grenade. He now can make 35 replicas in an hour as long as they don’t exceed 250 pounds. █*LEVEL 3 ▬ (300-399 posts) His replicas now have reached their pinnacle, working the same as the object that he has touched and used his aura on. This includes (but is not restricted to) Droids, large explosives and small vehicles. However, he can only make something this big once an hour. The amount of replicas (excluding recently unlocked complex and large objects) is only 40, and cannot exceed 350 pounds. █*DRAWBACKS ▬ The greatest weakness of this is the user, the more items he creates in a row, the more his aura runs low- which weakens his ability to guard and block against attacks. The larger the object, the more aura it uses, the fuel for the replicas is his aura, and nothing else. With this, the semblance has to be used within 10 minutes of touching the object that he wanted to make replicas. With this the objects will never be the exact same as the one that it copied, however, the differences are extremely small, and get less noticable the higher the level of semblance. However, these differences can be noticed if they have a strong perception skill.

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:
Affectation:
0) Healthy weight for his height is 118-154. Right no he unhealthily underweight.
Archetype:
1) Sly smell: I would remove the part of creating images off of smell. Since you already have enhanced smell/insight from scent in this.
2) I would remove the other skill stealth, since that level of skill would not make you immune to tracking. Generally, if someone doesn't have a skill that potentially matches or surpasses your stealth (like detection skill equal or higher) they won't be able to find you anyway (outside of aura sight). So I would just keep the other talent stealth. A useful one you could get would be aura masking, which would mean you can potentially hide your aura from others. But how effective it would be is dependent where you put it.
3) Add fear of small spaces to his fear list (since it is mentioned in his bio that he has it and no mention he ever lost it)
Inventory:
5) Primary weapon a) How high can he jump/fly with red dust? How much of a speed boost does it give him? b) How far does the stun effect spread from him with yellow dust? c) In drawbacks, may want to change word dumb to numb for yellow dust penalty. 6) Need blade length of switch blades 7) Need effective range of revolver (and clip size)
Semblance:
8 ) Aura color cant be clear or transparent. Has to be a color. Could be white, or light grey, etc. But it does need to be a color. 9) I would want the times (hours, minutes, etc) changed to posts for this for how many he can make with a cooldown (either after making a few or after each one made, up to you) 10) Need more specifics on how much aura it takes (rough percent) to make them.
∰-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. Feel free to contact me at any point... just send a message with the crows. ✘ Status: Inquiring ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ▄
█HAIR ▬ White. Dyed with red, black, and some ash-grey
█CLOTHING ▬ His clothing consists of many different things! He can sometimes wear something flamboyant, and colorful to draw attention towards himself. Other times? He dresses in dull browns and blacks to be slick and sly, with a smile to persuade and eyes to peer into the soul of the poor victim to look into them. Through this, he also wears black gloves, sometimes with fingers, sometimes without, so he can touch things as he wished without the worry of prints. Although he has yet to reveal, nor show any resemblance of his tribe’s culture. Instead of long and flowing clothing, he wears tight fitting clothes, not revealing too much skin, but revealing enough to sway the ladies!
█ACCESSORIES ▬ He doesn’t often wear trinkets, but when he does, they’re often rings, or earrings, as well as different symbols of gods to rile up those who he doesn’t like very well! █EYES ▬Yellow
█BUILD ▬ He’s fairly small, and his build isn’t too muscular. He’s rather lean, but not bulging in many places. It seems he could even fit into women’s clothing if he didn’t have such a masculine face and voice.
█TATTOOS ▬ None!
█SCARS ▬ A few on his legs from bramble, other than that? Nope!
█MARKINGS/FAUNUS FEATURES ▬ A white, bushy tail and fox eyes. However, the tail is often covered and his hair a variety of colors, sometimes even the entire spectrum of colors in strands.
█ █ ╫ A R C H E T Y P E ╫
█NATURAL ABILITIES
█Primary Talent ▬ Deception/Persuasion, truly in light of his floater lifestyle, he has always been good at coming up with lies, or sewing false realities with his words. Whether it be to persuade a person into buying something, or getting someone to do work for him, he managed to twist words and confuse others. This is a reason why he simply did not fit in, why work when others could do it for you? Why work hard when they’re so dumb to fall for anything!
█Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ Sly Smell. Foxes have been known to have an extremely strong sense of smell, yet, the nose of Tatsuda is defected, yet the same as most foxes. He has an increased sense of smell, yet not as much as the other of his tribe. His smell has only increased slightly, 2 times that of a human. The closer they get, the more detailed the image of them are, to the point where his smell and his eyes overlap the images, allowing him to tell the slight differences that the visuals wouldn’t be able to tell. Picking up specific pheromones that are related to stress, or danger, this allows him to pick up on lies, or distress with a person rather easily as long as they’re within 2 yards of the person. Although with this, pungent smells are awful in odor, enough to make him gag, or even throw up if it would make a normal person gag.
█Other Talents ▬
Quick Fingers, he has a natural ability with being sly, his hands are nimble, the coordination he has with his fingers matches those of an expert. This allows him to perform gestures with ease, or even pickpocket without others knowing. This also allows him to hide things rather easy while being searched. Playing cards with him is an aggravating thing.
Stealthy, in crowds, in darkness (even with faunus-vision) he can be hard to spot. With particular expertise in sneaking into places, he has mastered the art of getting away without his face or body being noticed. He claims himself a second storyman, which he lives up to in his ability to sneak into homes and businesses and steal all they have.
█LEARNT ABILITIES
█Strongest Skill ▬ Forgery, most of anything having to deal with copying, he can do. Instead of honing a craft of his own, he fostered the craft that copied others’ hard work. Whether with painting, or pens, he can, with the proper resources, forge a large amount of documents with very few errors. With this, he can also speed up the process and make worse copies, but more of the thing he was copying. This allows his status as a con-man to be rather easy to hide from others. As well as picking up jobs here and there to forge documents, or rewrite them to get his way, or another person’s way.
█Weakest Skill ▬ Combat, in general, he is not one for combat. With the exception to sneak attacks, underhanded maneuvers and such, he cannot fight. If he is caught in a situation where he has to fight, it is of pretty good odds that he will lose, die, or flee successfully. This means that he has to find the best ways to avoid combat, and convince them to not fight- he’s better at that than anything to deal with physical combat.
█Other Skills ▬ (Pick up to 3) Insightful. With his Faunus ability, and this, it is extremely hard to lie, or scam, Tatsuda picks apart sentences to the bare letter, and perceives the world much differently than others. This allows him to naturally be able to find inconsistencies with people’s dialect, words, and so forth.
Aura Masking. The user spends their aura to help mask their presence from those who may be seeking them. This allows the person to suppress their Aura Signature from those who may be using it to hunt the user down. It allows them to not only hide in plain sight- but also hide the use of his aura.
Retreat! His only skill that relates to combat, he is the master of GTFO, if he finds a moment, even the smallest moment of possible escape from combat, he’ll take it and run with it. This is for grim, people, or even conversations that pose a risk to his image, he will take. This includes running, lying, changing the subject or distraction to get away from the threat.
█DISLIKES █ ▬ Smart people, most people who hail from Atlas, █ ▬ Anything fried █ ▬ Anything that cuts...Scissors █ ▬ Foxes... █ ▬ The lack of money, his own tribe, Enclosed spaces without an exit
█PERSONALITY TRAITS
█Nature ▬ The fox known as Tatsuda has a complex with words, a great web of lies and truths that he has made to allow his safety, and his own profit. While he doesn’t have a mental illness, his paranoia has allowed himself to fall near insanity- but coming out of it an even greater threat. He is a compulsive liar, refining it into a strength that has yet to fail him. He uses this lying nature not only to manipulate others, but to gain a profit through scams and his own business operations. Manipulativeness, with greed, created a monster of the underworld. While Tatsuda doesn’t have complete greediness, to the point of desperation, he does have it. Swindling people out of their life sayings, then having them in his debt- of course, to further his own profit. However, his nature of safety, wealth, and deception has led him to be distant from people that he likes- and even more distant from the people that he came from. He has an extreme disdain for most of his tribe, actually, and being around them makes him quiet, and more irritable with those around him.
█Vernacular ▬ His voice is soft- but not feminine, nor masculine. It is quite ambiguous of gender. Some who have heard him speak call it soothing, but others who hear it say that his tones sound condescending- which they would be correct. His voice has more effects on people than his actions do more often than not.
█Positive Traits ▬ His personality gives him a number of positive traits relating to it. Whether you consider this a positive though, knowing his goals, is up to the reader to decide. He is a...character, the way he acts, it's almost like a performance all day and all night. However this also means that he has his slip ups- which can be comical most of the time. Most of the time, while he speaks, those who he is close to are calmed- and he uses this trait to protect himself from the angry- or the dull. He can also be very laid-back, allowing for others to feel comfortable around himself.
█Negative Traits ▬ Tatsuda isn’t a person known for his charity, and most of the time can be called greedy- and that is his biggest sin- greed. While it does not consume him, he allows it to make most of his decisions through business, and life. He also can be considered a coward, when it comes to a place where is confronted by something, he will try to find the quickest way out of that, even if it means hurting those close to him. However- this is caused by his laid-back attitude, for it makes him lazy (however not gluttonous) and can lead to him taking no action in situations where he’s needed. On top of his laziness, he can be seen as a person who is easily addicted. While not a personality trait- but a genetic one, the presence (after being exposed to it only once) will make him an addict, causing him to become the likes of animals.
█ █ ╫ H I S T O R Y ╫
█BACKGROUND ▬ Born into the Freikkre tribe in Atlas, his mother and father were excelling individuals. His father, a metalworker, known for his artistic, and functional crafts of steel and iron. His mother on the other hand, was known for her ability to speak- being as cunning as a fox some would say. At one point she manipulated the tribe’s officials and well- that is simply a story for another day. This tale is not of the predecessors, but the successor of the family. However, it would not be from noble ground. His father, upon becoming a father, fell into a depressive stupor- which brought the metalworker to alcohol. While he was young it wasn’t bad, but as Tatsuda aged, the drunkenness became worse and worse. His mother, who showed concern, tried to stop him- however, each time she failed. Over time, beginning at age 3, the father became abusive, screaming at both Tatsuda and the mother- it evolved into physical abuse and worse. As he grew older by 2 years...The worst had happened. In a drunken mess, the father tried to kill Tatsuda, blaming him for the shame of the family. However, the mother defended him- putting up a brave yet, depressive fight. However...The father did overpower her, and murdered her in the process before then, passing out in a drunken stupor as he had been known for doing. When others found the scene- they were taken aback, and throughout the father from the tribe and gave a ceremony for the mother, however- Tatsuda was nowhere to be seen. He had not run far, but he was hiding. He had heard screams and crying, heading his mother’s previous words of hide, he did so. Tatsuda didn’t move from his small space, in a barrel that they had kept in groups of three. One week passed, then two, then nearly three when someone finally found the nearly starved child, crying, and staring at the walls of the barrel. When he was taken out, he had small pressure wounds and a fear of small places, which he has today and refuses to get into a space where he doesn’t know how to get out of. He was placed in an orphanage- although his treatment never got any better. He couldn’t accept the death of his parents, he hated it- he hated his father! Why didn’t he die!? Why did his mother have to die! His hatred grew and grew, only marinating in the trauma of having no one but himself for an amount of time. From this place he moved from home to home, families offering to foster him- although, through 3 different families they all failed. He had a fixed perception of what a family was. He believed that all of them would fall apart as his own did- so he showed signs of irritability, until he snapped and lashed out on one of the fostering parent’s children, his own ‘sibling’. This is where it went from bad to worse, as he was removed from the system and out onto the streets. While he did slowly grow to have friends through his adolescence, he refused to have any social interaction until age 15, where he did hae some friends yet, sadly, this turned to be a falsehood. As his lack of craft put in the lowest of the population. Earning him the title of “Tats, the beaten” as not only children, but adults would take turns of beating the child near death. Which fueled his perception of others lying to him- which he took and ran with. His ‘craft’ doesn’t produce a product, but collects a profit from fools. While a young adult, he made profits by showing people the wilderness, on tours with false mythology- becoming a scam artist only to be shut down by officials of the tribe. By the time that the tribe was ready to move from Atlas to Vale, he was well enough ready to leave them, with a hate in his heart of Atlas, and of the tribe even greater. However, he did have friends of the tribe like Aya, which he felt bad for leaving, but this guilt didn’t last long. While he was on a month’s trip to Vale, he disappeared from the tribe- most thought he was dead, picked off by Grim, but he had replicated a map- on how to get to Vale. He used that to travel and survive for the month’s trip and once he arrived, he began business. Lying, cheating, swindling and even robbing people of their belongings through his deception. Soon, his past left him (even though he would never forget) and almost became a new person. He chose a new name, changed the color of or even hid the features of the tribe. He had started a new life, one of profit, laughter, lies, paranoia, crime, and pleasure. A changed life, a changed man, his goal was not to kill, but to be rich, wealthy, by any means necessary, and to enjoy the pleasures of it. In the past, this means many women- those who’ve had his children and him quickly disappearing. Being like his father and going on weeks and weeks of being drunk to bounce back, easily. His crime is not violence, but it is deceit, and a need for usefulness and money.

They are a set of steel boots, going a total of 3 inches past the ankle with various slots for small dust on the sides. Each of them a different color: Red, Yellow, Purple and Black, each of them for different kinds of dust that have their own uses.
Red- it causes the to erupt in a stream of flames enough to propel the user off of the ground for a short time, causing an intense boost of speed and short-term flight. It causes the user to be launched into the air 10 meters, with a speed of 10 M/s.This can also be used to burn foes that are too close to the user of these boots. This lasts for two turns per 2 small dust used in the boots.
Yellow- This allows the boots to send out a large pulse of electromagnetic energy, that both stuns cybernetics and muscles for a single turn. It reaches up to 5 meters. This is enough for him to stun a group of people for just the right amount of time for him to flee. This takes 2 yellow dust per use.
Black- The boots adhere to the surfaces that they touch, changing the direction that gravity affects the user. This is to either pull the user to a surface, or climb onto a surface that he normally wouldn’t be able to climb. This lasts 2 turns per 2 small dust.

This includes (but is not restricted to) Droids, large explosives and small vehicles. However, he can only make something this big once an hour.

Semblance:
4) I would reduce the aura cost. of level 2 to 15% and level 3 to 25%. 5) Given he has aura costs to his replication so he has that natural limit, I would change number for how many he can make per turn for x turns (after level 0, he would be out of aura before he even hit his max with current numberings). Instead I would have it like level 0 he can create up to two replicas per turn, level 1 is up to three, level 2 is up to 4, and level 3 is up to 5.

█ACCESSORIES ▬ He doesn’t often wear trinkets, but when he does, they’re often rings, or earrings, as well as different symbols of gods to rile up those who he doesn’t like very well! █EYES ▬Yellow
█BUILD ▬ He’s fairly small, and his build isn’t too muscular. He’s rather lean, but not bulging in many places. It seems he could even fit into women’s clothing if he didn’t have such a masculine face and voice.
█TATTOOS ▬ None!
█SCARS ▬ A few on his legs from bramble, other than that? Nope!
█MARKINGS/FAUNUS FEATURES ▬ A white, bushy tail and fox eyes. However, the tail is often covered and his hair a variety of colors, sometimes even the entire spectrum of colors in strands.
█ █ ╫ A R C H E T Y P E ╫
█NATURAL ABILITIES
█Primary Talent ▬ Deception/Persuasion, truly in light of his floater lifestyle, he has always been good at coming up with lies, or sewing false realities with his words. Whether it be to persuade a person into buying something, or getting someone to do work for him, he managed to twist words and confuse others. This is a reason why he simply did not fit in, why work when others could do it for you? Why work hard when they’re so dumb to fall for anything!
█Faunus Trait/Bonus Talent ▬ Sly Smell. Foxes have been known to have an extremely strong sense of smell, yet, the nose of Tatsuda is defected, yet the same as most foxes. He has an increased sense of smell, yet not as much as the other of his tribe. His smell has only increased slightly, 2 times that of a human. He can pick up specific pheromones that are related to stress, or danger, this allows him to pick up on lies, or distress with a person rather easily as long as they’re within 2 yards of the person. Although with this, pungent smells are awful in odor, enough to make him gag, or even throw up if it would make a normal person gag.
█Other Talents ▬
Quick Fingers, he has a natural ability with being sly, his hands are nimble, the coordination he has with his fingers matches those of an expert. This allows him to perform gestures with ease, or even pickpocket without others knowing. This also allows him to hide things rather easy while being searched. Playing cards with him is an aggravating thing.
Stealthy, in crowds, in darkness (even with faunus-vision) he can be hard to spot. With particular expertise in sneaking into places, he has mastered the art of getting away without his face or body being noticed. He claims himself a second storyman, which he lives up to in his ability to sneak into homes and businesses and steal all they have.
█LEARNT ABILITIES
█Strongest Skill ▬ Forgery, most of anything having to deal with copying, he can do. Instead of honing a craft of his own, he fostered the craft that copied others’ hard work. Whether with painting, or pens, he can, with the proper resources, forge a large amount of documents with very few errors. With this, he can also speed up the process and make worse copies, but more of the thing he was copying. This allows his status as a con-man to be rather easy to hide from others. As well as picking up jobs here and there to forge documents, or rewrite them to get his way, or another person’s way.
█Weakest Skill ▬ Combat, in general, he is not one for combat. With the exception to sneak attacks, underhanded maneuvers and such, he cannot fight. If he is caught in a situation where he has to fight, it is of pretty good odds that he will lose, die, or flee successfully. This means that he has to find the best ways to avoid combat, and convince them to not fight- he’s better at that than anything to deal with physical combat.
█Other Skills ▬ (Pick up to 3) Insightful. With his Faunus ability, and this, it is extremely hard to lie, or scam, Tatsuda picks apart sentences to the bare letter, and perceives the world much differently than others. This allows him to naturally be able to find inconsistencies with people’s dialect, words, and so forth.
Aura Masking. The user spends their aura to help mask their presence from those who may be seeking them. This allows the person to suppress their Aura Signature from those who may be using it to hunt the user down. It allows them to not only hide in plain sight- but also hide the use of his aura.
Retreat! His only skill that relates to combat, he is the master of GTFO, if he finds a moment, even the smallest moment of possible escape from combat, he’ll take it and run with it. This is for grim, people, or even conversations that pose a risk to his image, he will take. This includes running, lying, changing the subject or distraction to get away from the threat.
█DISLIKES █ ▬ Smart people, most people who hail from Atlas, █ ▬ Anything fried █ ▬ Anything that cuts...Scissors █ ▬ Foxes... █ ▬ The lack of money, his own tribe, Enclosed spaces without an exit
█PERSONALITY TRAITS
█Nature ▬ The fox known as Tatsuda has a complex with words, a great web of lies and truths that he has made to allow his safety, and his own profit. While he doesn’t have a mental illness, his paranoia has allowed himself to fall near insanity- but coming out of it an even greater threat. He is a compulsive liar, refining it into a strength that has yet to fail him. He uses this lying nature not only to manipulate others, but to gain a profit through scams and his own business operations. Manipulativeness, with greed, created a monster of the underworld. While Tatsuda doesn’t have complete greediness, to the point of desperation, he does have it. Swindling people out of their life sayings, then having them in his debt- of course, to further his own profit. However, his nature of safety, wealth, and deception has led him to be distant from people that he likes- and even more distant from the people that he came from. He has an extreme disdain for most of his tribe, actually, and being around them makes him quiet, and more irritable with those around him.
█Vernacular ▬ His voice is soft- but not feminine, nor masculine. It is quite ambiguous of gender. Some who have heard him speak call it soothing, but others who hear it say that his tones sound condescending- which they would be correct. His voice has more effects on people than his actions do more often than not.
█Positive Traits ▬ His personality gives him a number of positive traits relating to it. Whether you consider this a positive though, knowing his goals, is up to the reader to decide. He is a...character, the way he acts, it's almost like a performance all day and all night. However this also means that he has his slip ups- which can be comical most of the time. Most of the time, while he speaks, those who he is close to are calmed- and he uses this trait to protect himself from the angry- or the dull. He can also be very laid-back, allowing for others to feel comfortable around himself.
█Negative Traits ▬ Tatsuda isn’t a person known for his charity, and most of the time can be called greedy- and that is his biggest sin- greed. While it does not consume him, he allows it to make most of his decisions through business, and life. He also can be considered a coward, when it comes to a place where is confronted by something, he will try to find the quickest way out of that, even if it means hurting those close to him. However- this is caused by his laid-back attitude, for it makes him lazy (however not gluttonous) and can lead to him taking no action in situations where he’s needed. On top of his laziness, he can be seen as a person who is easily addicted. While not a personality trait- but a genetic one, the presence (after being exposed to it only once) will make him an addict, causing him to become the likes of animals.
█ █ ╫ H I S T O R Y ╫
█BACKGROUND ▬ Born into the Freikkre tribe in Atlas, his mother and father were excelling individuals. His father, a metalworker, known for his artistic, and functional crafts of steel and iron. His mother on the other hand, was known for her ability to speak- being as cunning as a fox some would say. At one point she manipulated the tribe’s officials and well- that is simply a story for another day. This tale is not of the predecessors, but the successor of the family. However, it would not be from noble ground. His father, upon becoming a father, fell into a depressive stupor- which brought the metalworker to alcohol. While he was young it wasn’t bad, but as Tatsuda aged, the drunkenness became worse and worse. His mother, who showed concern, tried to stop him- however, each time she failed. Over time, beginning at age 3, the father became abusive, screaming at both Tatsuda and the mother- it evolved into physical abuse and worse. As he grew older by 2 years...The worst had happened. In a drunken mess, the father tried to kill Tatsuda, blaming him for the shame of the family. However, the mother defended him- putting up a brave yet, depressive fight. However...The father did overpower her, and murdered her in the process before then, passing out in a drunken stupor as he had been known for doing. When others found the scene- they were taken aback, and throughout the father from the tribe and gave a ceremony for the mother, however- Tatsuda was nowhere to be seen. He had not run far, but he was hiding. He had heard screams and crying, heading his mother’s previous words of hide, he did so. Tatsuda didn’t move from his small space, in a barrel that they had kept in groups of three. One week passed, then two, then nearly three when someone finally found the nearly starved child, crying, and staring at the walls of the barrel. When he was taken out, he had small pressure wounds and a fear of small places, which he has today and refuses to get into a space where he doesn’t know how to get out of. He was placed in an orphanage- although his treatment never got any better. He couldn’t accept the death of his parents, he hated it- he hated his father! Why didn’t he die!? Why did his mother have to die! His hatred grew and grew, only marinating in the trauma of having no one but himself for an amount of time. From this place he moved from home to home, families offering to foster him- although, through 3 different families they all failed. He had a fixed perception of what a family was. He believed that all of them would fall apart as his own did- so he showed signs of irritability, until he snapped and lashed out on one of the fostering parent’s children, his own ‘sibling’. This is where it went from bad to worse, as he was removed from the system and out onto the streets. While he did slowly grow to have friends through his adolescence, he refused to have any social interaction until age 15, where he did hae some friends yet, sadly, this turned to be a falsehood. As his lack of craft put in the lowest of the population. Earning him the title of “Tats, the beaten” as not only children, but adults would take turns of beating the child near death. Which fueled his perception of others lying to him- which he took and ran with. His ‘craft’ doesn’t produce a product, but collects a profit from fools. While a young adult, he made profits by showing people the wilderness, on tours with false mythology- becoming a scam artist only to be shut down by officials of the tribe. By the time that the tribe was ready to move from Atlas to Vale, he was well enough ready to leave them, with a hate in his heart of Atlas, and of the tribe even greater. However, he did have friends of the tribe like Aya, which he felt bad for leaving, but this guilt didn’t last long. While he was on a month’s trip to Vale, he disappeared from the tribe- most thought he was dead, picked off by Grim, but he had replicated a map- on how to get to Vale. He used that to travel and survive for the month’s trip and once he arrived, he began business. Lying, cheating, swindling and even robbing people of their belongings through his deception. Soon, his past left him (even though he would never forget) and almost became a new person. He chose a new name, changed the color of or even hid the features of the tribe. He had started a new life, one of profit, laughter, lies, paranoia, crime, and pleasure. A changed life, a changed man, his goal was not to kill, but to be rich, wealthy, by any means necessary, and to enjoy the pleasures of it. In the past, this means many women- those who’ve had his children and him quickly disappearing. Being like his father and going on weeks and weeks of being drunk to bounce back, easily. His crime is not violence, but it is deceit, and a need for usefulness and money.

█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Flot Pekhoty █ ▬ These set of boots, stolen from Netami while he was still in the tribe, have been made to not only be a weapon, but to be a vehicle of escape. They are a set of steel boots, going a total of 3 inches past the ankle with various slots for small dust on the sides. Each of them a different color: Red, Yellow, Purple and Black, each of them for different kinds of dust that have their own uses.
Red- it causes the to erupt in a stream of flames enough to propel the user off of the ground for a short time, causing an intense boost of speed and short-term flight. It causes the user to be launched into the air 10 meters, with a speed of 10 M/s.This can also be used to burn foes that are too close to the user of these boots. This lasts for two turns per 2 small dust used in the boots.
Yellow- This allows the boots to send out a large pulse of electromagnetic energy, that both stuns cybernetics and muscles for a single turn. It reaches up to 5 meters. This is enough for him to stun a group of people for just the right amount of time for him to flee. This takes 2 yellow dust per use.
Black- The boots adhere to the surfaces that they touch, changing the direction that gravity affects the user. This is to either pull the user to a surface, or climb onto a surface that he normally wouldn’t be able to climb. This lasts 2 turns per 2 small dust.
Purple- the gravity around the boots lessen tremendously, allowing the user and the boots to levitate, and float upward for one turn, allowing them to silently get up surfaces, allowing him to sneak onto roofs, or get to areas without tremendous physical force. This lasts 2 turns per 2 small dust.
█Melee Form ▬ It’s a pair of boots, all of the ammo has a different effect, this applies to both melee and ranged forms.
█Ranged Form ▬ It’s a pair of boots, all of the ammo has a different effect, this applies to both melee and ranged forms.
█Other Form(s) ▬ There are no other forms...they’re boots.
█Ammo Type ▬ Physical- The four listed dust types
█ ▬ The downsides of these boots, however, is that they’re useful in situations, not exactly for combat. While they can be used for combat, they’re not the most effective unless close to an enemy. With this, they take a large amount of dust per the use of the weapon’s abilities- causing the user to have to decide whether using the boots is worth the cost of the dust. The boots also are very distinct for being metal, meaning that they are prone to these effects: Yellow dust will cause the user’s feet to go numb for one turn after the use, Red dust will cause intense overheating after prolonged use- causing up to 3rd degree burns after 2 uses consecutively and the other two dusts can damage the metal that the boots are made out of.
█OTHER WEAPONS █ ▬ 2 switchblades (4 inch blades) █ ▬One Revolver (Physical ammo) (Clip size- 6 bullets) Accurate up to 25 meters
█ ▬ █ITEMS █ ▬ Scroll █ ▬ Painting Supplies █ ▬ Forgery Kit █ ▬ Rope, Hooks (Almost everything you need to steal from museums and other artistic establishments)
█ █ ╫ S E M B L A N C E ╫
█*NAME ▬ Copycat █*AURA COLOR ▬ Light Grey █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ This semblance makes a mockery of anyone who makes anything originally. For the entire purpose of it is to make identical, physical copies of objects that he touches. This semblance is great for theft, easily covering up something he stole with a replica that his semblance made without much effort. Due to the semblance being about not only hiding, but scamming people out of their original crafts, it is nearly invisible! Unless someone has their strongest skill be perception, they won’t be able to tell when he is using his aura. The level that he is only changes two things: How many things he can create in a timeframe, and the functionality of the things he creates
█*LEVEL 0 ▬ (0-99 Posts) His base ability, he can create most things as replicas, however, they will not function. Whilst he can make a gun, the gun will not be able to shoot bullets, and a bomb will not be able to explode, even though they look and feel completely real. He can make up to 2 replicas per turn, as long as they do not weigh more than his own weight.
█*LEVEL 1▬ (100-199) The things he can create now are semi-functional, while he cannot create anything more complex than a rifle, he can make things that now do simple functions (if he can find them). However he still cannot create explosives that have the role other than smaller explosives (firecrackers and the like). However he can now make 3 replicas per turn, as long as they don’t exceed 150 pounds. (Explosive are effective in a 5 feet radius)
█*LEVEL 2▬ (200-299) The things he can now create are fully functional. He can create things that do more complex functions like a computer and electronic devices. With this he can make medium-sized explosives that he has touched (like anything else) that has the power of Grenade. He now can make 4 replicas per turn as long as they don’t exceed 250 pounds. The effective range of explosives is now a 10 feet radius
█*LEVEL 3 ▬ (300-399 posts) His replicas now have reached their pinnacle, working the same as the object that he has touched and used his aura on. This includes (but is not restricted to) Droids, large explosives and small vehicles. He can make 5 replicas per turn and they cannot exceed 350 pounds. Effective explosive radius is now 15 feet.
█*DRAWBACKS ▬ The greatest weakness of this is the user, the more items he creates in a row, the more his aura runs low which weakens his ability to guard and block against attacks. The larger the object, the more aura it uses, the fuel for the replicas is his aura, and nothing else. With this, the semblance has to be used within 10 minutes of touching the object that he wanted to make replicas. With this the objects will never be the exact same as the one that it copied, however, the differences are extremely small, and get less noticable the higher the level of semblance. However, these differences can be noticed if they have a strong perception skill.
