There are many worlds, ranging from very similar from one another to wildly different. Normally the residents of these parallel universes never meet; but when the fabric of time and space is altered in pursuit of power, the various dimensions of the multiverse start to come together. So began the great crossover of Multiverse Unlimited.
Full Name: Unknown Sex: Male Species: Human Age: Early thirties Hair Color: Black with a white streak Eye Color: Purple Skin Tone: Light Height: 6' Weight: 203 lbs Likes: Fighting; training Dislikes: Weakness; waiting; procrastination; warriors who rely on weapons, armor, or gadgets; alcohol and other mind-altering substances; authority
Appearance: 6' even with a muscular, well-built physique; the result of countless years of physical training. He has short, black hair with a grayish-white streak on the left side, toward the front. His eyes are an amethyst purple hue. His back, chest, shoulders, and arms are covered in black, rune-like tattoos which are believed to serve as an aid for his special abilities, allowing him to channel otherworldly power. While he is executing special techniques the tattoos glow with their own illumination. The color and intensity of the light they produce depends on the technique being used. As is fitting of a man known as the Adonis Fighter, he is quite attractive.
Attire: His clothing varies day by day. He has no designated costume, but tends to prefer light fitting clothes which allows fluency of movement such as tank-tops and comfortable fitting pants. He tends to prefer the colors black and red.
Information: An ambitious and enigmatic martial artist who prides himself on his ability. He utilizes a mysterious and unknown martial arts style which is based off of Greek Gods, as reflected in the names of many of the techniques he utilizes. He travels the various worlds of Multiverse Unlimited, seeking-out and defeating other fighters who boast their reputations. He enjoys not only the recognition for such acts, but also the thrill.
His past and origin are unknown, and even his real name is a closely guarded secret. Why he has trained himself to the limits of human tolerance and dedicated his life to becoming the strongest fighter in the universe may lie in his murky past. But those are questions to which only he himself holds the answers, and it doesn’t seem likely that he would choose to reveal them any time soon.
Personality: His physical power is almost frightening, but his heart is cold and uncaring. To say that he is anti-social would be a grave understatement. He has a grim outlook on life and existence and doesn’t feel that people who need to be saved deserve to be saved; because they aren’t strong enough to help themselves. He is a strong believer in survival of the fittest, and that people should learn to depend upon themselves and no one else in life. Serious and self-centered, he tends to look down on others. He allies himself with no one and prefers complete solitude. He views relationships, even one-night in nature, with women to be distracting and unnecessary and he avoids them without hesitation. He focuses himself solely on his goals and any outside interference is merely an annoyance to be cast aside. He has great ambition to go far in life, but his means are rather harsh and extreme. He can be fickle at times, and change his mind in a split second. He refuses to fight an opponent whom he considers incapable of standing a chance against his skill, and views weakness as a handicap in life.
Personal Quote: “What a sickening display of fighting ability. Are you what they would pass off as a 'hero' these days?”

Chi Sensory: Audacity has the sixth sense to detect the 'chi,' or lifeforce, or others. Through this sense he can detect various aspects about an individual, including their physical health and overall fighting capabilities. He can also detect any other anomalies associated with the lifeforce of an entity, though he cannot always be certain just what those anomalies are. The range of this sense depends upon the intensity of the chi being emitted; the weaker an individual’s lifeforce, the closer he has to physically be in order to detect it.
Pearl Barrier: A shimmering, aurora-like dome surrounds him and deflects incoming attacks. It can sustain only so much damage before breaking, though its tolerance has proven capable in deflecting even gunfire. While the barrier is erected, Audacity cannot move without lowering it. He can also use it to trap others inside of the dome, forcing them into close-quarter combat. His tattoos glow with a soft, iridescent light while executing this technique.
Underworld Illusion: Drawing upon the power of Hades, his body becomes cloaked in an aura of chi which distorts and refracts light around him, rendering him practically invisible. Rarely used, as he prefers offense over defense. His tattoos glow dark purple while executing this technique, though the illumination fades once the technique is in full effect.
Aurora Punch: A shimmering punch which causes his fist to glow in mysterious, pastel colors like an aurora borealis. It leaves a rippling trail of these colorful patterns in its wake as he swings, hence the technique’s name. If Audacity himself moves while engaging this technique, he leaves a trail of transparent, aurora-like after-images behind him as he moves. His tattoos glow with a soft, iridescent light while executing this technique.
Prometheus Punch: His fist becomes engulfed in a cloak of searing flames, allowing him to deliver a strike which produces extreme heat. Audacity is completely immune to the fire he produces. His tattoos glow with red and orange light while executing this technique.
Heracles Punch: Building up chi and pooling it into one of his fists, he can deliver a punch with devastating power, enough to shatter through substances as hard as rock and even metal. The only drawback is that this technique is slow to execute while he channels the force into his arm. His tattoos glow with a golden light while executing this technique.
Gamma Kick: An aerial triple-kick attack which sends the opponent rocketing back toward earth via the final strike. The third kick in the combo attack is the most damaging. His tattoos glow with a red light while executing this technique.
Poseidon Tempest: Drawing from the power of the Lord of the Ocean, moisture in the atmosphere expands, forming water which cloaks and swirls around him. He then unleashes a powerful blow with his fist while simultaneously deluging the foe in a highly pressurized burst of water. His tattoos glow with a blue-green light while executing this technique.
Artemis Arrow: A blessing from the Goddess of the Hunt. His body becomes engulfed in a pale blue energy as he dives into a flying kick, pressing his legs together and pointing his feet forward as his body becomes a giant, energized arrow. This technique can slice through even the heaviest of defenses, and can pass through targets to strike other targets beyond them. His tattoos glow with a pale blue light while executing this technique.
Northern Light: A retake on the Aurora Punch technique, but using his feet rather than his fists. He delivers a flurry of fast kicks, his foot glowing in pastel colors all the while. Just like his Aurora Punch technique, a vapor trail of light is left with each movement of his legs. If Audacity himself moves while engaging this technique, he leaves a trail of transparent, aurora-like after-images behind him as he moves. His tattoos glow with a soft, iridescent light while executing this technique.
Mark of the Adonis: A powerful combination attack executed with dignified finesse in which he unleashes an assault of punches and kicks to overwhelm the target. Unlike many of his special techniques, this one is launched with lightning quick strikes. His tattoos glow with purple light while executing this technique.
Limit Strike: This skill holds the potential to be Audacity’s most devastating martial arts technique, though misuse can make it his weakest. Drawing power into his fist, it glows with a blinding, ethereal light. He then winds up for a clothes line strike, his fist causing a powerful explosion of chi upon impact. The catch behind this technique is that it is tied with his lifeforce. The closer to death he becomes, the more powerful it is. If used any other time, however, it bears no more power than a regular strike, and lacks the explosive finale of the blow. His tattoos glow with white light while executing this technique. The lower his physical health, the brighter his tattoos glow.
Olympus Gate: Audacity Ultimate. A holy circle emits from his fist, his entire body engulfed in ethereal light which is followed up by a punch which strikes with the force of an Armageddon, tearing the very fabric of time and space itself and blasting the target into the next dimension. His tattoos glow with white light while executing this technique.

Jonathan was orphaned at a young age, the cause of death of his parents being that they were murdered by vagabonds who robbed them. They spared John’s life since he was a young child at the time, but the act of ‘mercy’ was not so kind since he was far too young to take care of himself. He was taken in by the sensei of a nearby dojo, the sensei being a man who frequently provided food, shelter and training to orphans and runaways in exchange for obedience and a strict training in discipline. John took to his training adamantly, fuelled by a passion which surpassed most of his piers. He was the youngest of the group, however, and not nearly as skilled as those who had started courses prior to his arrival. He was often the subject of teasing due to his determination coupled with his overall lack of genuine skill other than his drive. One student in particular, Jisho, tormented him frequently and John came to view him as an unfriendly rival within the school.
When John was nine he met a girl while running errands in town. A young, innocent girl with a haunting beauty named Linda. The two of them conversed for a while and became friends and she promised to visit him at the dojo whenever they both had free time. She made good on her word and frequently made the trip from town to the dojo, where she and John would talk for long hours about various aspects of their lives. Naturally other students were aware of her visits, in particular Jisho who also had developed a crush on Linda and was envious of her relationship to John. He tried on numerous occasions over a period of several years to put a wedge between the two of them and take her away for himself, but she had no interest in him and remained focused on John. This infuriated Jisho who saw John as being greatly inferior to himself; he couldn’t understand why she would choose John over him.
By the time they turned sixteen the romance between John and Linda had gone into full bloom, and John’s time at the dojo was drawing to a close as he matured into a man. John and Linda frequently spoke of running away together and starting a life somewhere far away from where they were, and when she became pregnant with his child John decided to cut his training short and leave the school to support her and his future child. When Jisho learned of this he was livid; it was like a final indication to him that he would never have Linda for himself. One night Jisho and a group of his friends within the dojo confronted John and Linda. John was beaten within an inch of his life and then forced to watch as Jisho, followed by the others in his group, took turns raping Linda. When they were finished they then beat Linda before leaving the both of them to their own devices.
The boys hadn’t meant any casualties in their act, but they had misjudged their own strength versus Linda’s frailty. She miscarried and, combined with her injuries, was unable to recover and died shortly after. Jisho felt guilty for his actions but did not admit to any involvement. John was enraged, but took no immediate retaliation. Instead he left the dojo in pursuit of greater strength, coming across a new martial arts practice he felt was just what he was seeking. The mysterious teacher of the arts tattooed runes all over his upper torso which would allow him to channel the power of both Titans and Gods alike to aid him in his battles. John trained in these arts for a full year almost consistently, only eating, sleeping and resting long enough to keep his body alive.
He returned to the dojo two days before the graduation of his piers when they would leave the school as men. He confronted Jisho, as well as the other three men responsible for what had happened. Jisho was as smug as ever, and was completely unprepared for how much John had truly improved. John used his newly acquired combat capabilities to first defeat and kill the three underlings before he defeated and killed Jisho himself. But rather than feel that his lost love and unborn child had been avenged he only felt more lost than ever before. With both her and the focus of his rage dead he no longer had any motivation for life. And so he decided that his motivation would be power; that he would never again be in a position to be weak and helpless. He would challenge those who valued themselves as strong – those like Jisho – and decimate them in battle to prove just how weak they truly were. He abandoned his name and set about his lonely journey.
