Name: Pierce “Storm-Grasp” Archeril

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Appearance: The most obvious thing is that his left arm has been replaced with a cybernetic version. It is slightly larger than his right arm, and is made from a dark iron-like metal. Wires contained in protective metal piping run up to the side of his head, connecting the arm to his brain. A long, narrow screen resembling a meter runs down the inner side of the forearm.
Aside from this he is a bit shorter than average at about 5 ft 6, with an athletic build and light, slightly tanned skin. An oblong face and narrow hooked nose frame dark, sober grey eyes that have a slight twinkle, with short mousey hair.

Pierce favours black and yellow clothes, matching the colours he would wear in the arena. He wears grey cargo pants held up by a web belt of the same colour, tucked into heavy black steel-toed boots. The light chest armour he wears over his black vest is black but edged with yellow and with geometric thunderbolt patterns. A padded fingerless glove on his right forearm matches the chest armour.

History: Pierce originates from a planet named Scorrachite. While considered a warlike civilisation, the humans of Scorrachite are not well known or active on the wider Multiverse, as they place more value in combat as entertainment - a gladiatorial society, if you like. However, people who know where to look know that this planet has turned out some formidable fighters, and it’s not uncommon for Scorrans to become mercenaries or soldiers. Being from a fairly affluent house, Pierce received combat training and without the responsibilities of being the heir that his eldest sibling has, he has been regularly engaged in performance battles for much of his life, as is traditional to keep up his house’s name

Pierce took to this lifestyle immediately, he loved the thrill of the fight and the roaring audience after a victory. Things took a turn when he sustained large injuries in a fight, losing his left arm despite the safety measures Scorrans put in place during matches. Luckily, thanks to his house’s wealth and contacts, as well as his popularity, he received a cybernetic replacement and was back in the ring, earning his nickname.

He has recently left his home planet in order to undertake a mercenary job out in the Multiverse, a traditional rite of passage for Scorrans.

Personality: Pierce’s most striking trait is probably his oddly excitable, playful attitude, something which often meets scorn or disdain from the more grizzled people in the field. However, people usually warm up to him as he shows a good degree of respect and humility towards his colleagues, clients, and opponents. Unfortunately, this can be undercut by his rather tactless nature, especially in normal conversations.

Equipment and abilities: Pierce’s only real skills are his combat training. Even at that, he’s, at heart, an entertainer in this practice, which can sometimes get in the way, but he does put up quite a fight and has a good aim.

As equipment goes, his arm packs a fair punch, being about twice as strong as a normal human arm and four times as durable. Its main ace, though is a device built into it that uses Scorran tech to project a magnetic field that oscillates to generate an electric current. He can slide a meter to determine the distance he’s aiming (up to 10ft) or just place his open palm on a surface. This functions acts like similar to a taser and is generally non-lethal but good for stunning or deterring most medium sized enemies, while often being able to kickstart or switch off machinery. It also has a built in flashlight. Unfortunately he can’t use a weapon very well with this arm as he needs his hand free to use the electrical function and it’s not as dextrous as a real arm. He wields a light plasma pistol in his right hand.
