Powerful Hero 100 + 100] 15 Base Points: 200 Disadvantages: 150 Unspent Exp: 0 Spent Exp: 0 Total: 350 Character Information Height: 1.81 m Hair: Black Weight: 81.00 kg Eyes: Blue Appearance: Takezo keeps his hair short cropped and does not allow his beard to come in. For work reasons he commonly wears suits preferably grey or light brown. Kaze wears a deep blue synthetic body suit that is resilient to high friction and covers the face. In constant motion Kaze seems to blur at times leaving visible trails when running. Takezo keeps the suit in a hidden briefcase compartment; it does not take long to change clothing. Background: Born Takezo Edwards in San Diego, California to US Army Ranger Fredrick Edwards and Sayuri Saki-Edwards, his mother died during labor. Takezo’s father was distant at best, absent most of the time. Growing up he was left to his own devices, spending yeas on military bases in Germany and Greece while his father was deployed. When trying to talk to talk about his mother all his father would say was she should have never stopped running. Fredrick retired from the military just before Takezo’s seventeenth birthday. They moved to the Bronx in New York. There Takezo attended NYU for accounting. After graduating Takezo’s father arranged a trip to Sapporo to meet Sayuri’s family. There he was immersed in a world he had only read about. Distanced from the larger cities Sapporo blended the culture of the past with modern economic needs. There he felt an instant connection as if the land itself talked to him. The Saki family spent a week with Takezo in the city before taking him to the ancestral home. East of Sapporo in Yuni Town Takezo learned the meaning of his father’s words. Outside the family home a shrine sat just off the road. Even before he could see the framed picture that rested inside the small hut he knew this was for his mother. One would not say the only hero but the fastest one ever born out of YuniTown. Before meeting Takezo’s father she was known as Mayumiko, the Snow Arrow. Blessed with the gifts of speed and divine she had long been a protector of Hokkaido. Takezo learned that his father had met her while working with a special task force of US military and Japanese special agents. After becoming pregnant she married Takezo’s father and returned with him to America under the promise she would return. It was shame on the family, and some would say the nation that Mayumiko would turn her back on her country. When she died the US Government had her body returned. By the time Takezo was old enough to learn what had happened it was only another anecdote from the 70�s and one his father worked diligently to hide from him. Takezo spent the four years in YuniTown studying from his family and learning all he could about his mother’s life. He trained in the family’s school of martial arts and the disciplines that his mother should have instilled upon him as a child. This study only strengthened his connection to the land and the bond he had so wanted with his mother seemed to only grow. When the messenger from the US base in Sapporo came for him his heart broke. His father had been hospitalized and was under the care of the VA. One of his requests was to see his son. There was no hesitation only sadness when he left. Takezo felt reborn yet broken, experienced yet ignorant, he knew he would leave for his father, just as his mother had. Returning to New York Takezo found his father’s home in ruins, a forgotten crime scene. The apartment was ransacked little remained from his memories. It had been less than a week from the time his father had called for him but Takezo found him comatose and a husk of the man he knew. Powerless he spent his days watching over his father waiting for a change; each night a fire burning inside crying out for revenge. On the fourth day his father woke long enough to see his son. “Do good things.” With those words he was gone as a veil lifted from Takezo. He had felt it in YuniTown the spirits of his ancestors whispering within him. As his father passed the last barrier of resistance faded along with him. He felt his mother and father united at last hold him. The fear was gone; the Snow Arrow would fly again. The father’s blessing had unlocked his mother’s gifts. Personality: Kaze is ruled by his father’s words, do good things. It is what drives him to go forward to run and to help those he can. Quote: “Run and the wind will follow.” Tactics: Kaze is gifted with inhuman speed and dexterity. He uses this in combination with his martial training to deadly precision.

It was simple; all through school he was always the bully’s bully. When he was nine Eddie convinced his parents to enroll him in self defense classes. Four times a week for nine years and that didn’t count the practice he got between classes and at lunch. Collage was an easy choice, criminal law. His first semester he debated going into the legal side but after meeting Takezo Edwards the choice was clear. Six times in the first two weeks he had to bail him out of fights. It would be an associate’s degree and then the police academy. The police academy was just another hurdle. Placed in the standard classes Eddie fought to be admitted for advanced training. Reserved for meta-humans and other exception cases Eddie satisfied himself by finishing within the top two percent of his class. Takezo was off in Japan when he finally cut his teeth for the force. A juicer pumped on some new chemical a crime syndicate had pumped into a nearby gym. There’s nothing quite like dodging a four door sedan lobbed over handed by a guy in spandex shorts. Ten shots center mass and he dropped like a rock. What’s the reward? Eight day suspension for not calling for back up and allowing the designated task forces handle super powered threats. When he made detective Eddie thought it was just to keep him away from the old beat. It was a year later when Takezo showed up again. What twist of fate was it that the accounting student he used to protect turns up in a blue clad super suit? Together ever since, Eddie still sees it as his responsibility to protect Takezo or Kaze, whatever he wants to call himself. Personality: Eddie wants to protect others, and to a fault. To an extent he is a thrill seeker, always looking for the next challenge. He loves Takezo as a brother but part of him hates the fact that he is now so inferior to his friend. Whatever the risk Eddie will man up to the challenge if it means he can prove himself to his friend. Tactics: At range, shoot them. The get close punch in face … yeah, it’s that simple.
