Name: Gyo (Gee-Oh) Matsubura
Codename:
Age: 17 (3rd Year)
Appearance: He’s got a head of messy, brown hair pushed back to keep it out of his dark amber eyes.
Fair skin, lightly peppered with faded scars.
His broad shoulders, lean, athletic frame, and tall stature made him quite the imposing young man.
Personality: Gyo is a friendly, understanding, and overall inviting young man, much to the opposite of what his appearance may suggest.
He often avoid confrontation and is capable of easily brushing off almost anything.
Some take this as a sing of cowardice, when in reality, Gyo was often lost in his own mind; too preoccupied to give negativity a chance.
EXS Ability: Assimilation. This power allows him to absorb matter, transforming his body into said matter upon doing so.
i.e. If he absorbed a log, he’d become a wood-man.
Despite this shift, he retains full maneuverability of his body even while totally transformed; allowing him to move about normally.
This is great for combat as it makes him capable of both taking in and dishing out far more damage.
While he does retain his flexibility, heavier materials can still slow him down due to the added weight.
What’s more, assimilation relies on equivalent exchange, meaning he has to have material equivalent to his own mass if he wishes to fully transform. Otherwise, he might only partially cloak his body in whatever material he needs.
As a bonus, if his body is damaged while transformed, he’s able to absorb more of whatever material he’s transformed with in order to regenerate.
Costume: Unlike those around him, Gyo’s outfit was… of lower quality. He was simply adorned in tattered, sleeveless white shirt and tattered dark brown pants.
His shirt is bound closed with a thin piece of rope that also assists in holding up his oversized bottoms.
Backstory: Gyo had always been an active and outgoing young man. In his younger years, he had a habit of getting into petty competitions with his friends. Wether it be a foot race, a blinking competition, or a straight up brawl, the shaggy haired young man was down for it all.
This intensity didn’t go unnoticed by his parents, and rather than ignoring this until he potentially became a problem-child, they decided to find a way to focus his energy through sports.
By the end of his 1st year, Gyo had already managed to make a name for himself on the basketball team thanks to his uncanny ability to slam right past any defense the opposing team put up.
Unfortunately, early into the season of his 2nd year, Gyo suffered a severe injury to his right leg, permanently limiting the mobility in that legs foot. This, by extension, took the young man out of the game for the feast of the season, and likely would hinder his capabilities in any later games.
After finishing his recovery, the could-have-been basketball star found himself exceedingly surprised by how well he was handling everything. In the end, his parents were right- a competitive outlet sure had done him a world of good. He appreciated every moment he had been able to participate.
All he could do now was move forward with his life and seek out his next great adventure.
