Solar Vortex
Solar Vortex
Alias:
His proffesional name is Solar Vortex, given to him by his trainer and master. His real name is Mercutio Montague.
Physical Appearance:
Age: 18
Weight: 171 lbs.
Height: 5'11"
Eye Color: Blue (Glowing Yellow when empowered)
Personality:
Mercutio is very hot-heated and has random feelings. There is no telling whether he will be too depressed to go on, or he will be so happy and excited that there's nothing in his way. He generally has a posotive attitude towards everyone, especially women. He has not had any experience in how to control himself in that kind of thing since he was trained by his master alone for many years. Mercutio is unbelievably loyal to any good friends, many times he is too loyal.
Fighting Style:
Despite his master's wishes Mercutio still has memory of what it was like in his gang when he was young. For that he makes an excellent "brawler", using anything around him in the best way possible to win a fight, if absolutely necessary. But he is most fluent in "martial-arts".
Powers:
Sunlight: Sunlight is the thing that is extremely vital to all of Mercutio's moves. He stores energy all the time during the day time. But there is a limit to how much he can store, a pretty small limit (He is only 18 after all). If the sun is out Mercutio can be extremely hard to defeat. He actually has the power to bring out the sun for a limited ammount of time if he concentrates for 15 seconds at the minimum, for about 2 minutes of sunlight in darkness. Every power he has, whether it takes a small or large ammount will take up his storage of energy from sunlight.
Sunlight Manipulation: Mercutio can make the sun shine bright for a short ammount of time. He needs about 2 minutes of sunlight to empower him fully. This requires his concentration and will take a little bit of time, leaving him open. Whenever he uses any of his powers Mercutio's eyes will glow like the sun. The more powerful his move the brighter his eyes glow.
Solar Strength: The stronger he wants to get the more power this will take from him. He can make himself up to six times stronger than he normally is. At this level his eyes glow very brightly and can be freightening. The less power he uses the longer his solar strength will last.
Extreme heat: This requires a median ammount of power, depending on how hot Mercutio makes it. He can make the sun's rays of light heat up in a certain area. He has excellent control over this power and can keep alot of heat on a moving target. Making it as much as 100 degrees over the actual temperature. This can cause extreme fatigue over a long period of time. Mercutio has been known to be able to fight with somone and actually make them collapse from the heat within a few minutes while blocking their attack and making them work themselves unconsious.
Body Heat Vision: This requires almost no power, and makes his eyes become bright yellow, but not glow. The body heat of others is seen easily at night or when he needs to see if somone is a little too cold. When it's cold out Mercutio just might warm you up and you won't even know it. He's a great person to know in the winter.
Blinding Brightness: Mercutio can make his fingertips glow extremely bright. This requires a low ammount of energy. It can blind others for a small ammount of time and has a low effect on Mercutio.
Hot Touch: This requires the lowest ammount of power. For he has practiced this for so many years. Mercutio can make any part of his body searing hot. Up to 2500 degrees F. This can get him out of a sticky situation, or through a 2-foot thick steel wall. There are no visible changes in his skin color. Besides the fact it would be pretty hot around him.
Solar Heal: Mercutio can heal somone else by using his source of energy. He has to physically come in contact with the person in order for this to work. If the sun is out he can heal another gradually for as long as there is sunlight. Or he can give a burst of healing power all at once, which can be dangerous. The effects of this has always been posotive on others. Giving energy and power, but this is not able to major wounds quickly. Maybe the ability to heal a massive wound will be aquired by Mercutio, but not for some time. It can also not heal broken bones.
Energy absorb: This has been used as a last result only once. It wasn't a total disaster, it just left Mercutio and his master unconscious for a few minutes. Mercutio's master knows Mercutio should be able to absorb the energy from something if he can put energy into something else. He will most likely never attempt to use this move until he is able to control it better.
Solar Vortex: Solar Vortex is Mercutio's signature move and his professional name. It requires the maximum ammount of power and makes his eyes nearly flow with blinding brightness. He must concentrate for a few seconds and after he starts the vortex Mercutio is powerless until he takes in sunlight, after the vortex is started it grows on its own and is stopped when Mercutio wills it to. This move creates a swirling white-hole (opposite of black-hole, sounds a little akward doesn't it?) in the air. This swallows the light around it at an increasing rate. Making a disturbing sight of swirling darkness, that comes to a bright, white hole. It will grow in size and power, slowly getting larger and taking in more light. If Mercutio isn't there to deactivate the vortex there is no telling what will happen.
When enough light is absorbed Mercutio can turn it into a small ball of light, which will make an enormous explosion. As soon as it is formed into a ball light will immediately return to where there was darkness. The Vortex won't permanately take light from an area. When the vortex is formed into a ball Mercutio can direct it with his mind or grab onto it and throw it like a baseball. The longer the Vortex takes in light the more powerful it becomes. There can be a multiple explosion effect when this ball is thrown at something. Destroying a couple city blocks or anything in its way, even Mercutio.
Equipment: Mercutio has no equipment that he would use in battle.
Life Story: Mercutio Montague was born in a run down suberb of a huge city. He never saw his father and his mother never wanted him. Mercutio was put in an orphanage within a month of his birth. It was not long before he was in trouble. He started a small gang of boys when he was 6 years old and they grew up doing as bad of things as they could. He was caught and disciplined on many ocassions, as well as the others. They never learned and did worse things. Resorting to stealing and other things before they were 9 years old.
But one day Mercutio was caught for beating a man and taking everything the man was carrying. He was forced into juvenile after it was seen there was no chance of Mercutio learning on his own. There was far too much anger and grief inside of him. He started to find he could do things, he was not like other boys. Before long it was reported that Mercutio could make things hotter than they should be, and he literally did. Being a hot-head kid Mercutio showed it off to everyone he could and the guards told officials.
One night when it was very late Mercutio was awoken by... different guards. They were wearing very different clothing from the other guards. They took him and put him in a large armored truck without awaking any of the other inmates. While the truck was transporting Mercutio to "god only knows where" the armored vehicle was attacked. The armored truck was making a turn when there was gunfire from nowhere, instantly killing the drivers of the vehicle. The truck unintentionally veered off the road and collided with another vehicle. The impact caused Mercutio to smash his head against the side of the truck, sending blood spewing and causing him to lose 10 years of his life. The men who had done this were part of an extremely powerful gang that was everywhere in Asia. They owed somone a large debt and this was their way of doing so. The gang had to get Mercutio "unharmed" to somone in order to pay off their debt.
Mercutio can not remember any of this in one piece. Only fragments of the memory had been allowed to pass through his mind. The impact had made him forget 10 whole years of his life.
WARNING: This is a huge break in the story. You may want to take a few minutes to think about something else before you continue, this is confusing.
Mercutio was awoken by a short, chubby, Asian man and he didn't know where or who he was. This man's name was Tsai Lei, he raised Mercutio in an isolated temple somewhere in China. In seeing his abilities Tsai found it the only thing he could do. He could not let Mercutio's ability go to waste. There was an ancient Chinese legend that followed Mercutio's life almost exactly. Even the boy's memory was supposed to be lost in some manner in the legend. Mercutio was apparently "The Solar Warrior" that legends told of, this story was written on a wall of some ancient temple in China over 400 years ago.
Tsai very rarely allowed Mercutio to see other people. Only his mistresses and workers were allowed to come in contact with Mercutio. There wasn't much conversation from them, for they did not know English. Tsai was the only other being who knew English around Mercutio, and Tsai wanted it that way. He trained Mercutio in martial arts and morales. By the time Mercutio was 15 he was very fluent in many different forms of fighting. Tsai was raised nearly the same way Mercutio was and pushed the same rule of his family onto Mercutio. "You must never strike a woman, treat woman with the utmost respect, and someday you will be lucky enough to meet the right woman." These morales were not written but that was the thing Tsai had taught Mercutio.
What Tsai and Mercutio worked on far more than anything else was his power. Tsai had explored Mercutio's powers for 8 years and helped him become far too powerful. The main point of the legend of the Solar Warrior was unclear. Tsai became obsessed with finding out what Mercutio was capable of, without wondering what he was making Mercutio into. Creating an super-powered, confused 18 year-old is just not the best idea.
Mercutio still remembered a few things from his past, but was pulled away from those thoughts by Tsai. He wanted Mercutio to think he had never had a life before he was 10. Life for Mercutio was very boring and he needed something more. He ran away from the temple on his 18th birthday. Mercutio ran to the nearest town and saw a flier for the UFF. It was calling for the most talented fighters to come and compete in the 4th Tenka-Ichi Budokai Tournament. He was taken in by the thought of competing in battle against others. He wanted something more in life.
After a few weeks Mercutio had found his way to the UFF island and is currently trying to find meaning to his life.
