Chapter Archives - Adon | |
![]() Character Background: Born and raised in Bankock, Thailand (Beats me, I'm just making this up) Adon grew up without a mother, thus explaining his lack of a seemingly softer side, which would normally result from a motherly influence somewhere in his life. His father was a prominent teacher in the arts of self defense, and while he tried his best to raise the young Adon as a father as well as a mother-type figure, his obvious intentions were to have his son follow in his footsteps. Beginning his training at an early age, he got him interested in various styles of martial arts. As he grew older, Adon eventually settled for the raw power and agility of Muay-Thai kickboxing, as it seemed to feel "right" to him. Although some may argue that it isn't the greatest style known, Adon worked vigorously to perfect his usage of the style to the point that his natural ability just became so good, it was uncanny. Having an affinity for exotic cats, he nicknamed himself "The Jaguar" and began to compete in various tournaments. Despite coming up against various styles, he persevered and soon became a legendary fighter in Thailand. His reputation preceeded him, and word of his involvement in tournaments caused uneasiness in his opponents. Just knjowing this causes him to sometimes act in a cocky and brash manner, but so far, no one has managed to curb his ego... he's that good. However... he soon meets with another skilled kickboxer, who quickly teaches him the meaning of humility... ...Sagat. Character Plans: Well, my plans are to veer a little off course, to try and humble the cocky one, to an extent. Maybe even spark a love interest. While he's on this quest of self exploration, he ultimately prepares to challenge Sagat again, who will be somewhat suprised to meet the "new" Adon. I know it's a tired cliche', but the catch... who'd expect this from Adon? In the process, he also picks up a new rival... one who may hold a secret to his past that he NEEDS to know. Character Strength: While arrogant at times, Adon has the speed, skill, and POWER to back it up. His reflexes in battle allow him to react almost instantaneous to combat situations, and his speed allows him to rifle off normally slow kickboxing-related attacks with blinding quickness, making him a challenge for even the fastest of fighting styles. His ultimate accomplishment would be the acquisition of his 2 signature moves (I left out the wall kick[Jaguar Tooth]) The Jaguar Kick, a forward somersault/heel kick, and the Jaguar Knee, two swift rising knee bashes that literally lift opponents off the ground. Character Weakness: As stated earlier, his ego sometimes flares up at the wrong moments, causing him undue stress, sometimes causing fights. His arrogance tends to alienate him from others. Only those who actually get to know him truly understand the man behind the sly grin. Unfortunately, that's not many. And although he'd like to sometimes keep it that way, eventually he knows it will do him more harm than good. Even worse, as he grows older, he becomes more aware of his upbringing, being raised without a mother, who died during childbirth. Thinking about this sometimes causes him to suffer fits of depression and heartache, which he tries to keep bottled up inside. That's also gonna be trouble. Disrespecting his late mother is also an easy way to get him worked up... and possibly get you beat down. |
