Character History:
Jack was born into a reasonably long line of fighters. Competing in fighting tournaments had basically become a family tradition, and while they were never the best combatants, everyone could hold their own, and occasionally win one of the minor tournaments. For the most part, every family member’s fighting ability was self-taught. Oftentimes, they would get help from their relatives, but nobody trained under a true master. Because of this, while some in the family had an unusually high ki level, they had no knowledge of it and no idea how to use it, and so no one developed any sort of advanced abilities.

During one tournament that Jack was competing in, Master Roshi, who was observing, noticed his higher ki level, though it was clear that he didn’t know how to harness it. After the tournament ended, Jack was confronted by Roshi, and told of his potential. Jack, who hadn’t known who Master Roshi was, listened for a while, but once Roshi started talking about ki blasts and flight, Jack dismissed him as some senile old man. Roshi kept trying to explain different ki-based techniques, but Jack refused to try any and left.

Even though Jack thought that what Roshi had been talking about was impossible, his curiosity kept getting the better of him. He tried to forget about their encounter for a week, but found that whenever he would try to train, he wouldn’t be able to focus, always thinking back to Roshi’s insistence that things like energy blasts and sensing energy signals were possible.

After a week of being unable to train, Jack decided that he would try some of the techniques that Roshi had told him about. His intention was mainly to prove Roshi wrong so that he could truly dismiss his claims, but when Jack began to feel his body’s energy, he started to consider the possibility that Roshi’s claims may have been true. In the end, he managed to create a small energy ball, proving to himself that Roshi had indeed known that he was talking about. Since then, Jack has been trying to develop his abilities, as well as find someone who can help him train.


Sample RP:

“Ugh, this is so stupid,” Jack muttered to himself, though he kept walking into the woods anyway. He had been trying to train outside his house, but once again, he hadn’t been able to concentrate. It had been this way for a week- he would start training, get a few minutes into it, and then think back to his encounter with some old man at his last tournament. The guy had seemed pretty cool for a while, and said that Jack had a lot of potential, but after he started going on about flying and shooting beams out of your hands, Jack figured that was his cue to get going.

Somewhere in the back of Jack’s mind, though, he couldn’t help but wonder if those kinds of things really were possible. The man had been trying to explain how to do them, so after being unable to focus on nearly anything else for so long, he decided to try one of them out. Even so, he still felt pretty ridiculous for even considering that they could be done.

“Okay, you’ll give this a shot, it won’t work, and then you can finally forget about that guy and get back to real training,” he insisted as he stopped a good ways into the forest. People didn’t come here very often, so he wouldn’t have to worry about someone seeing him and asking what he was doing.

“All right, what all was that man talking about? He mentioned energy blasts…flying…sensing stuff…that seems simple enough,” Jack said with a small chuckle, “Let’s see, energy blasts were something about feeling your inner energy, moving it outside your body, and condensing it…”

Jack closed his eyes and held out his right arm. He focused on feeling his body’s energy, and after a short time, realized that he did indeed feel something strange. It was different from an adrenaline rush or anything else that he had felt when fighting, though he really couldn’t explain how. Slowly, he attempted to channel it up his arm, and out his hand. As he kept focusing, a small energy ball began to form directly in front of his palm.

“Whoa!” Jack yanked his hand away and jumped backwards, causing the ball to dissipate. After he had had a minute to recover, he raised his arm again.

“Let’s try this again,” he said as he began to channel his ki through his arm a second time. Another energy ball formed, and this time, Jack stayed in place, slowly bringing his other arm up and holding it in his hands. Jack moved the ball around for a while, and then, remembering the old man saying that energy can be used to attack, threw it at the nearest tree. After seeing bits of bark fly off, Jack walked up and examined the very small but noticeable dent that he had made in the tree.

“Oh god…he wasn’t crazy.”
