Description

Name: Blackjack

Age: Indeterminable, since he is a creation born of the goddess and has no true age. however he came into being around 40 years ago.

Species:Appears to be human but is in reality a godly construct, mortal but powerful when he draws the right card.

Appearance: Blackjack can in theory change himself into whatever he wants when he draws a spade suite card, but normally he takes on the appearance of a jester. His face is covered by a metal mask, one side the side of tragedy, the other the side of comedy. The mask is sealed to his face by magic, preventing anyone but himself from removing or dislodging it. His clothes are those of a jester, his hat that of a jester as well. The suit is half red red and half purple with a split down the middle separating the two colors. There are also bells on almost every conceivable point on the uniform.

Personality:

Equipment/Weapons:
Magical Playing Cards:
These are packs of playing cards that Blackjack draws before every battle. The suite chooses the type of power he has, the value of the card determines the power level of whatever power Blackjack gets. The cards are magical, but they are essentially buttons, letting the jester acess the various abilities at his disposal. Some abilities (spade and club) are magical while others (diamond and heart) aren't.

Powers:These are the suits Blackjack can draw. Whenever he gets a new ability he also gets the abilities that the lesser cards can give him.

Spade:When he draws the spade card, Blackjack has the ability to affect luck around him. When the ten card is drawn he can only affect the objects on contact. When the jack card is drawn he can send out small bad luck hexes at whatever he wants to be affected. When the Queen card is drawn he can affect all objects in a radius of 10 feet in every direction. When the king card is drawn he can control the bad luck of an entire city block. When the ace card is drawn he can control the bad luck of an entire town or city.

Club: When he draws a club card, he gets a special staff that can turn into almost any kind of weapon. When the ten card is drawn he can only change the staff into other pole arms like spears, jousting lances, etc or other staffs. When the jack card is drawn he can transform the staff into any kind of melee weapon. When the Queen card is drawn he can transform the card into any melee or ranged weapon, excluding projectile weapons. When the king card is drawn he can turn it into energy weapons, like lasers, blasters or the like along with projectile weapons. When the Ace card is drawn he can transform the staff into any weapon known including vehicular weapons.

Heart: When a heart card is drawn he has the power of telekinesis, excluding organic or robotic lifeforms. When the Ten card is drawn he can send telekinetic bursts through his hands and feet to help push his opponent away during combat. When the jack card is drawn he can lift small objects ranging from specks of dirt to small scraps of paper. When the queen card is drawn he can lift larger objects, ranging from small furniture to car tires. When the king card is drawn he can lift larger furniture, including tables, desks and small boulders. When the Ace card is drawn he can lift anything short of lifting a building, ranging from cars to large boulders.

Diamond: When a diamond card is drawn Blackjack gets the ability to manipulate light. When the ten card is drawn he can cause an opponent to become blind over prolonged contact. When the jack card is drawn he gains the ability to send beams of hard light to knock back his opponent. When the queen card is drawn he gains the ability to make himself and other people, invisible. He also gains the ability to increase his speed to that of the speed of light, though he usually goes slower because at the speed of light he begins to cause damage to his environment. When the king card is drawn he can create objects out of hard light, ranging from complex objects like bicycles, to simple weapons like boomerangs. When the Ace card is drawn he gains the ability to explode in an incinerating blast of light and heat that can vaporize almost anything. It takes him awhile to do this however and if the enemy is not fried when this occurs, it may take him days for Dolmeena to put him back in this universe.

Here are the different values of cards that he can draw.

Skills:
Gambling and Chance Knowledge:
Blackjack is an expert on all manner of gambling and knows the risk for almost anything, from skydiving to taking a bus to work everyday.

History: Blackjack was originally a regular human being who gambled his life away to mob bosses in the 1920's of Earth's history. He was saved from execution by the goddess of chance Dolmeena when she appeared to him in front of his captors and blinded them with a brilliant white light. She then teleported the two of them to the heavens and said that the man had two options. Either he could go back to Earth or he could become the living embodiment of chance and help her cause chaos in the universe, He of course accepted the second option and has roamed the universe, causing chaos wherever he goes.

Blackjack immediately had a bullet fired at his skull, tearing through the inside of his brain. But he didn't immediately perish. Instead he simply turned towards his opponent and chuckled slightly, before turning into dust and vanishing into the breeze.

Blackjack entered the bar, bells jingling as he went. He noticed the large Aschen and ARMARX presence in the place and so chuckled to himself, saying "Well then, let's hope they get here soon. He casually sat down at a random table, far away from the two factions. He then drew the king of diamonds and simply turned himself invisible, waiting for the other members to arrive.

Blackjack And arrive they did. At first only Ilumiya and Oron showed up. "Be careful Oron, we may have been hired for a job but I have a feeling, there's more to it then that. Then Marxan and 55G arrived, surprised that the two Veroose were in the same area they were told to meet as well. 55G spoke "I despise you meatbags, let me hope that this assignment is worth it." Marxan relied “Don’t you know it. I don’t want to work with you or any of these other clowns for any longer then I have to." Soon, the other three, comprising of Vieed, Ehrian and Busted. They all sat down at the table and suddenly turned invisible as well.

Blackjack calmly walked up to the Second floor, unaware of the goings on within the building. Marxan had sen him to place security cameras which Busted had already wired into 55G's optical interface. With a thought, the android would be able to see the goings on at any floor of the hotel. Marxan had insisted they not be put in rooms, which would be disturbing privacy.

To make sure he wasn't seen, he had drawn the king of diamonds before heading up. This way, he could put the cameras in place silently and not be seen. He calmly turned backwards to the doorway, before grabbing a camera from the pouch and placing it gently on the doorway. Afterward, he pressed a small red button, which activated them. It was so nice for the local authorities, to have "donated" them to the House of Cards.

Blackjack continued to walk down the hall, placing cameras as he went, until he came to room 37, right across from room 38. He was about to move on, before he faintly heard some muffled conversations coming through the door. He gave a small smirk, though of course it wasn't visible through the mask. Just because Marxan respected other people's privacy, doesn't mean he did. He put his ear against the door, however he couldn't hear anything. To remedy this situation he turned himself invisible, before creating a small drill bit out of light, which he used to carve a hole into the door so he could hear them. However as soon as the hole was finished he found he couldn't move. At all. This was a complication. But to prevent people getting to him, he created an energy shield around himself, while still maintaining his invisibility. If he was lucky, he wouldn't be harmed.

Blackjack was beginning to get a tad annoyed at the fact that he hadn't been released from his imprisonment, or at least hadn't been taken into custody further. To remedy this situation and alert the people in the room to his presence, a beam of light about the size of his eyeball shot out from the air in front of to impact the wall at the far side of their room. It wasn't designed to hurt, just alert. The beam of light would then move, spelling out the words. "Get me out, now. I have reinforcements." Underneath the message it was signed "Blackjack", with a small flourish before disappearing. Hopefully something would happen now.

Blackjack managed to break free from the bonds holding him with a start and some heavy breathing. He was feeling pretty ticked at his current situation, so before he left he sent a big ball of light into the room, to exploded in brilliant colours. It would blind them for severalminutes, though he'd doubt he'd be around to see it. With that he turned invisible, entered someone else's room, and simply jumped out the window, running away creating steps of light for him to step on.

Blackjack walked in, just in time to hear Sophie's annoying and grating voice about settling problems with words. Frankly, her voice annoyed him a tad, so to make sure she shut up, he drew the queen of hearts before mentally raising a chair behind her and sending it straight for the back of her head. After that, he calmly walked to the bar and ordered a drink. Bloody Mary, his favourite.

Blackjack noticed the chair, not hitting her, and so raised the chair again and sent it directly towards her face. This time she'd definitely get it. He smiled under his mask, opening it up a little before driving that liquid down his throat, some red drops flowing from his mouth.

Blackjack walked up to Elaina and sat down beside her. "Hello, miss...how should I call you, as I don't know your name. Contrary to popular belief, the representative of the goddess of chance doesn't know exactly everything." He heard her reciting what Nyx had done in the academy, "Huh, I wonder what would happen if Nx, knew you were hear. Like if some asshole just yelled out to Nyx that you were here. That would be pretty bad for you, am I right?"

Blackjack drew a small card from his pouch as if he wanted to play cards with the table. The specific card was the queen of spades. Looking at it, he gave a frown before putting it back into his pouch and reaching for a quarter, which he promptly flipped. It landed on its side, which elicited a smirk from the face behind the split mask. {Putting it away, suddenly a section of the ceiling fell towards Elaina. "Wow, guess they didn't fix this place up as good as they said."

Blackjack was thankful that his mask hid his face, for he was a bit perturbed by this. When the curse struck him, he found out he couldn't talk to deliver a smart remark, so instead of trying to talk, he didn't show any reaction. A few moments later the floor under Elaina began to collapse. Truly whoever had built the place had used such shoddy construction work. He'd get Dolmeena to lift the curse later, right now, he was having too much fun,

Blackjack refused Jair access to his mind. If she was smart enough she'd figure out why he was doing this eventually. He was having fun.
