BASICS
âWhat, a shakedown? Damn, I'm gunna get in trouble now..."
-Nickname: Corvy and Cobra is the most popular, but a few Mordy and Mord float around here and there.
-Age: 19
-Gender: Male
-Species: Genetic Mutation - Moderate.
-Role: Follower Numero Uno!
-Motivation: To rid the world of all those that are above him. That is basically it. Corvy also has this thing against Nekria and Rorian especially, wanting to use their heads in ways not quite appropriate for viewing.
APPEARANCE
âI have to say, you must really find me interesting. "
-Eyes: Dull blue
-Hair: Burnt Red
-Height: 5'11
-Weight: 165 lbs
-Skin Tone: Fair - Tan
-Build: Wiry/Average
-Body Markings: For being a Follower, it is almost necessary to have at least one scar - if you don't, then your probably useless. Corvin has his own fair share of scars from scraps between other followers, police, and wild animals, with the majority of these intrusions being on his legs. He isn't sure why, but people really like aiming for his lower body when it comes to weaponry, and this fact makes him quite nervous. Corvin has at least 3 bullet scars (he doesn't remember how many...) in his legs, with only 2 in his left arm. Knife marks also seem to be most present in his legs, as if the attacker wanted to chop off his manhood (O.O), with the count coming to at least 15. His arms, a measly 4. We aren't going to go into how many wild animals he has encountered that have left their marks: just assume a LOT. For tattoos, he has the majority of his on his back - with the predominant tat of a set of twisted wings on his shoulder blades, and a snake winding its way down his spine.
As with all of these people, he has the numbers 0 - 4 - 3 - 6 - on his wrist, but the last number is being eaten by a snake tattoo. (It was a 7)
MENTALITY
"Look, if you are asking these questions 'round here, it is probably you that should be checked. Just saying.
-Quirks: His worst quirk is spinning his revolvers around his finger constantly: when he's bored, waiting, upset, all the time. Most are afraid that it will accidentally discharge, but Corvin assures them that it hasn't happened for a few months.

-Personality:
Corvin is an interesting fellow, but not weird or bizzare in that sense.
In short, Corvin is a pretty chill kid - not much bothers him, and not much excites him. Life just goes by in motions, and Corvin is merely there for the ride. He is pretty unresponsive to most events or things that are deemed 'exciting' simply because that they don't appeal to him. This is the case for most people, but Corvin is a little more extreme - things that appeal to him barely raise his excitement levels, and the number of those things is quite few. Corvin, however, does not show discontent or disgust with the objects that he feels nothing for, instead he feels just a sense of blandness in their appearance. Corvin often comes off as a very dull, boring character that has little to no life in him, but that is to mere strangers.
When hanging around Corvin at night time or with the Following members he enjoys, Corvin becomes quite upbeat and exciting. He will frequently chat with people, constantly making his way through ever person until he has nobody to talk with. He has a certain boyish charm to him that allows conversation transitions to move extremely nicely, with no awkwardness at all - even when switching between people he makes it look casual. Corvin not only has the boyish charm to keep the conversation alive, but also a cool, smooth, mysterious, almost spy-like aura around him constantly, even when he is his chill self. He will let on a bit of who he is to the other person, but never fully explaining everything about himself.
There is a reason to Corvin's difference in attitudes: He is not much of a day person. Corvin loves to sleep, and doesn't really 'awaken' until the afternoon, when his attitude picks up. Until then, Corvin is the chill, bored-looking man in the corner with a gun - and nothing can make him become his upbeat self until nighttime. Literally nothing: he has tried everything.
However, there is one thing that can wake him up in the morning, and that is fighting. While he may not be upbeat, he is definitely awake. When it comes to combat situations and fighting against the Nobles, Corvin gains this freakish determination that seems to only be undermined by his sarcastic jokes. He runs his own little agenda when fighting, not really listening to his objective and instead likes to lay waste to 'every damn Nobleman' he can find. This is explained a little more in depth when you learn of what Corvin went through as a kid - though many others went through similar times, Corvin couldn't move on and accept them.
His attitude towards most Mutations is quite heinous, to be honest. Corvin really doesn't consider himself much of a mutation, since the only thing different about him than another human is that his sense of touch is hypersensitive. It isn't that he is rude towards them, it is just that he doesn't trust those that were created by the Nobles - even if they are fighting with him. Granted, he does somewhat trust the Underground as a network, more than the random rabble on the streets above, but that doesn't mean he likes them all that much.
Bottom line = Corvin is that kind of kid that doesn't wake up until nighttime.
EQUIPMENT
âI carry anything I need. If I needed an annoyance, I would be carrying one."
-Clothing:To start, there are those ridiculous goggles that sit atop Corvin's head. While they are sometimes shielding his eyes, not many really know why he wears them. Moving down, he is always wearing a longsleeved shirt with stripes. Regardless of the colour of the stripes (though they are usually black and white) it is always vertically striped. There are some days where he wears a white vest - he gets cold easily - but even then it is striped. Corvin's gloves, on the other hand, are not striped and instead are just a solid black. There can be chains running down his shirt if he is feeling that way on that day. On his legs he wears blue jeans with a black belt with different belt buckles and chains, and his feet wear buckle up black and white striped punk boots. For fun.
-Carried Items:
Any kind of weapon he needs for the day, he has on him. Granted,
-Main Weapon
âąName: Number Forty Two (or #42
âąType: Revolver
âąMade of: Mithril and Velrium
âąLength: Roughly 2 inch barrel
âąWeight: 5 lbs
âąDescription/Info: #42 isn't a very loud weapon. He talks only when spoken too, and usually talks in riddles. Corvin sees him as 'the answer to the universe' since he is either spouting off facts, or speaking in damned riddles. Yeah, they sort of argue a lot.
COMBATIVENESS
âI'm good. That's all that is needed."
-Natural Talents
âąTalent 1:Long Range Shooting/Accuracy
âąTalent 2:Stillness/Camouflaging/Silence
-Skills
âąSkill 1:The Arsenal - Corvin is capable of using any type of weapon that can fire an object at another. He started with his slingshot as a kid, now uses things that kill people. No matter what it is, he can use it.
âąSkill 2:Vibrations - While Corvin's hearing are lacking, he makes up for it by being extremely in-tuned with the vibrations of the earth. He can feel the footsteps of another person walking towards him, but cannot usually hear them unless directly focusing on them. Similarly to a snake, he can also 'hear' through the ground.
-Weaknesses
âąWeakness 1:His Hearing - Corvin's ears are practically useless - he is 3/4 of his way to being deaf, and it isn't his fault, he just has always been that way. While his Vibrational Hearing makes up for quite a bit of it, he cannot hear anything airborne unless he seriously focus', which rarely helps.
âąWeakness 2:Hand to Hand - Don't get the wrong idea about Corvin - he could probably kick any random person's ass if he wanted to. Thing is, when it comes to fists or pointy objects, Corvin is somewhat useless.
HISTORY
âI wouldn't go down my path if I were you - screwed up the last guy that did."
-Life
âąMarital Status: 'Divorced' (Yeah, this will need explanation....)
âąFamily:
Corvin's unknown parents - Deceased.
The poor boy was ripped from his parents at 6, and all he can remember of them is their faces. Heck, he only knew them by Mom and Dad anyway.
Corvin's 'Ex-Wife' Sandra Delange - MIA
Corvin met her when he was just starting with the Underground around the age of 10. She was, like him, taken by the Nobles to be tested on, but sort of thrown away after a failed test (she could float). Once they both his 16, for they were the same age, a little blossom of love started between the two of them. Since they knew that life would be quite short if they were to stay in the Underground, out of a spur of confidence and heart-pounding love, they eloped. The problems started not a year later, when Corvin started going on more and more missions and rarely coming back to her. It didn't help that things between them were starting to get a little awkward, with the whole 'sleeping with your friend is weird' thing going on, and Sandra wanting to leave the Underground to raise a family. These little splinters finally destroyed their relationship halfway through his seventeenth year, when they parted on 'semi-friendly' ways. Sandra left the Underground days later, and Corvin hasn't seen her since, and is starting to miss her company as a friend. In reality, it wasn't much of a marriage, so not many consider him really 'divorced'.
âąHistory:Corvin doesn't remember much before the age of 10. He was taken from his home Rorian as payment to be experimented on, and his parents were butchered for the sadist as well. The only reason he knows this is because his clearly remembers the creepy man's face showing up at his house, black book in hand and everything. After that, everything is sorta blurry, except for one person: Marcus. The little boy was about the same age as he was, and they fought through the experimental pain together for the next four years of Corvin's life. Nearing the end, however, Marcus was killed after being unloaded with one too many powers - he was able to control the earth, including magnetism. With his only friend dead, Corvin nearly commited suicide at the age of 9 since he had no idea what to do. Little did he know that he would be getting out fairly soon.
The tests done on Corvin's body weren't all that severe or special, which puzzled the young lad to no end. His friends were being zapped, burned, eaten, and all these other horrible things, while he remained roughly untouched. It wasn't until they attempted to fill him with venom sacks that the pain really started, but it didn't last. The idea was a complete failure, for he was supposed to be turned into some reptilian freak-a-zoid, and instead only ended up compatible with the vibrational hearing. After this, he was immediately thrown out onto the streets, where he was supposed to be killed. Had it not been for the Underground, Corvin would have been one dead reptile.
Corvin joined the Underground out of pure revenge to get back for the death of his friend, but that quickly fizzled out after all the other things he had to do. There, he met Sandra and they eloped and that sort of thing. Life in the Underground was pretty awesome, with their main goals being to riot and rebel against the Nobles. Corvin got used to the lifestyle extremely quickly, with his laid back attitude helping emmencely. However, the burning desire to topple the Nobles - Rorian espeically - remains with Corvin, and he would love to see them fall. For now, however, he is content with just living.
OTHER: When doing missions that require a little more stealth, he disguises hiimself as a musician, just like the guy here
