Background/History: "And they called me mad at UCLA!" Dr. Adachi giggled as he looked at the results. Sure he couldn't explain why the supermice always turned bizarre colors, but they obviously had been transformed to larger, stronger, healthier mice. They didn't even seem to be ill tempered. It was a breakthrough. Sure, there were gaps in the path from success to understanding, but it was an astounding find none the less.

The ability to create stronger, more durable living beings was astounding. The ethical questions it raised were equally tough. Should he and his fellow researchers created an army of superbeings? Was there a medical value that they could explore. How would they keep their research out of the wrong hands? Was that gunfire?

Dr. Adachi peeked out the lab door and saw a dozen armed men, two or three obvious metahumans, and what appeared to be his old shop teacher in powered armor and a long cape.

Ducking back into his lab he heard the cries of his fellow researchers as they tried to flee. Knowing that he was about to die, Dr. Adachi began destroying as much of the research as he could. He deleted files, shredded notes, released the mice. Then the doors blew open. The older man in the armor (who, though bore a strong resemblance, was not Dr. Adachi's old shop teacher) loudly demanded that their metahuman research be turned over to him. Dr. Adachi could see the bodies of his colleagues and friends out side, some were still moving others were not. He could hear shouts for him to run, but ofcourse, there was nohere for him to run to.

The supervillain raised a gauntleted fist and it began to glow with pulsating red energy. He repeated the demands. Dr. Adachi nervously fingered the syringe he was holding. It was the last of their formula. With a curse, he jabbed it into his own thigh. The villain fired a blast of energy at him and he was lifted up and over the partitions in the lab. Dr. Adachi felt like he was on fire. The High King expressed anger and fired again. This destroyed the partition but revealed that Dr. Adachi was changing. The second blast, though still painful, was not as horrible experience as the first. And the fire in his veins was subsiding.

It didn't surprise him much that his skin color had changed, afterall it had happened to each of the mice. He didn't remember a transformation this drastic or quick, however. His head hurt like blazes.

The agents of the High King opened fire on the monster in the lab. They were dismayed to find that their rifles were having less effect on it than they had on the scientists. One of the metahumans, a large man with canine features, charged. Dr. Adachi slapped him aside and advanced on the High King.

 

"I will break every bone in your body!" he snarled.

 

The High King paled a bit. He was not really one of those "Fights Superheroes" kind of mastervillains. He and his men retreated.

After finding something to cover himself up with, Dr Adachi administered first aid to as many of his colleagues as he could find and then he felt the fire burning in him agian and he passed out.

Waking in the metahuman wing of the Century Samaritan Hospitol, Dr. Adachi was informed by the doctors on duty that his body had fluctuated between 13 and 6 feet over the course of the week he'd been unconscious. Seemingly stable, he went through a battery of tests and finally released.

It didn't take him long to decide to use his 9' tall superhumanly strong body to help others. Being a superhero was easier on his conscience than creating metahumans had been.

 

Personality/Motivation: On the one hand, Zukien, as Oni, is having a blast. He enjoys being a superstrong public figure. People like him, and despite his unusual appearance, he seems to be accepted. This is great. On the other hand, he's a nine foot tall giant who will never be "incognito"; the transformation also seems to have robbed him of some of his intellect.

On the first hand again, he rarely notices that. When he does, he can become somewhat melancholy.

 

Quote:

 

Powers/Tactics: Brick. He's the sturdy one. And the stronger one. Generally takes point and bashes those with similar powers/outlooks.

 

Campaign Use: Despite his reduced intellectual "agility", he is a knowledgeable scholar on genetics, biology, and biochemistry. He has studied the various "classic" genetic engineering tropes and could aid in the creation of all sorts of antidotes and cures.

 

Appearance: Before his transformation, Dr. Adachi was a Japanese American of average height and weigh who engaged in light regular physical activity.

Since his transformation he has become a 9' tall 880lb. juggernaut with glossy black skin, flame red hair and red eyes. Since taking the name Oni he had pretty much given in to the mythic stereotype and wears mostly robes and kilts. His standard "costume" is something you might see in a japanese manga, or D&D Monster Manual under "Oger Magi". He generally goes shirtless and wears gold armbands and thick iron bracers.

He can occasionally be coaxed into formal or casual clothing for the right event.
