- Falchion's History:
Falchion was born in a little village in south blue with an average and poor family. The village was constantly raided by pirates and stopped rarely by marines. The justice system wasn't very strong in this island, because it was so far off the marine base and pirates attacked it so much that it became a safety hazard to start creating a base in the island. Falchion, by age five, already saw enough slaughter and death to last most people a lifetime. His mind began to twist, and turn, until his personality disorder became evident by age seven. Falchion could smell the blood in the air with his cursed nose, and hear the countless cries of people and their families and even children his age. The cries were always nearby, but the smells could have been from miles away. Falchion eventually, by age eight, had pirates appear in his own home. His parents fought the pirates and were gravely injured, but Falchion stood still and watched the entire event unfold in front of him. The pirates, after overpowering his parents, slammed him into the ground and started beating on him so he wouldn't resist while they walked around the house and stole their valuables. They left a few hours later, leaving both of the family members and Falchion alone to die. Falchion survived his beatings, but his parents didn't. Falchion spent the rest of his life using the sword and pretending to be the marines that he hoped would come and save the village.
One day an individual from the government showed up and slaughtered every pirate that showed itself in the village that day. The man camped in the forest of the small island and continued to slaughter every pirate that showed himself for a month. Eventually the pirates stopped showing themselves, and the village people started thanking the lone soldier that seemed to have carried out the will of the people of the village single handedly. He spotted Falchion and walked towards him, spotting him with a katana in his hand with blood around the edges. The government personel heard about a murderer in the village that killed a few of the pirates, but not nearly enough to cause a panic. The government agent walked towards Falchion and bent down to his level, Falchion was only nine. "Do you want to learn a few things from me? Do you want to protect these people from the mean pirates?" Falchion nodded, and the man took him under his wing. The next six years Falchion trained under the world government agent, and he learned almost every secret from him. Falchion didn't show an interest in any of the rokushiki techniques, except Tekkai. Falchion developed a keen strength in the technique, and even formed a permanent form of it. Falchion's body also became well toned, and strong. After the six years the government agent left the island and told Falchion that if he protected it for a year that he should be able to join the marines with no problems.
After the year passed Falchion realized his obsession with causing pain and receiving pain on himself. Pirates came trying to get loot from the island and Falchion moved towards them and slaughtered them all. His sword pierced through them and impaled countless pirates, giving him the nickname "The Impaler". Falchion eventually passed the year, giving marines enough time to create a base in the island, and decided to join the marines almost immediately afterwards. He was sixteen. When he graduated from the academy he was nineteen. Falchion almost immediately rose to a petty officer and was stationed in the north blue to assist with pirate riddance. At the age of twenty four he turned into a lieutenant after showing the marines his accomplishments in pirate slaughter; however, he always looked bored and unsatisfied when delivering the heads. None of the pirates were more then small time chumps, so he never got a higher rank then lieutenant because of it.
Personality: Falchion is a sadist and masochist at the same time. Falchion enjoys feeling the pain of a sharpened blade, or a bruised body or even a battered body but enjoys the feeling of his blade cutting through another person's skin even more. His sadism often shows in his fighting style while he attempt to cut through people with his blade. Often times he ignores certain slashes at him and continues to move forward. His face remains calm while he does this, but his eyes look open and borderline psychotic. His mouth smiles deeply, cheek to cheek, while he fights an opponent worth killing. His favorite part about fighting, however, is the aftermath. He hopes to fight a person strong enough to give him a great challenge every day, which gives him a borderline psychotic approach towards fighting pirates. He doesn't give them chances, only kills them. He enjoys fighting with one hand to give opponents a better chance of fighting him, but will use both hands when needed if they make his life fun. He also sucks at using two swords, but he carries three around with him in case one of them breaks.
Falchion, when not fighting, is serious and almost normal when someone speaks to him. He's a heavy drinker and often times drinks an entire barrel without feeling the after effects. He loves watching fights with physical trauma, it almost makes him want to join in. He loves eating delicious food, since he has a strong nose the smell makes his mouth water. He spends his free time eating as much food as he enjoys or can handle. He can eat a lot without tiring out, it almost looks inhuman for someone his size and weight. Falchion enjoys company, which is why he rarely goes on expeditions or on pirate hunts without someone next to him to 'assist' him. His best friend would probably be a fighter who could cook and go with him on expeditions/missions. Fal also loves women, and can be considered a womanizer in the sense that he tries to get in bed with women every chance he gets when they are attractive. He also prefers women pouring him a drink then anyone else, of course they have to be pretty. He prefers to have a woman pour him a drink then to watch people fighting.
Ship: Marine ship
Ship Flag: Marine Flag
Devil Fruit: N/A
Special Abilities:Very Strong Swordsman: Falchion can lift things that are up to 500 pounds with his strength. His punches can break through wood, but not penetrate trees. Along with his strength he knows how to wield a sword better then most.His specialty is one sword style. Along with his specialty in swords, his body is used as a combination. He attempts to grab, punch, kick, or even slam opponents into the ground with great precision and strength.
Special Tekkai: Falchion has a passive form similar to tekkai, but with different effects. His skin becomes very tough, and can decrease the effects of cutting techniques instead of blunt ones. In short, it takes a decently strong strike to break through his skin with decreased effects by half their cutting damage. Along with the special tekkai, Falchion has a lot of Endurance. He can withstand an amazing amount of pain without complaining, it helps that he is a masochist.
Reaction Timing: Falchion reacts to attacks almost instantly.
Superior Sense of Smell: Fal was born with a sense of smell that is on par with a bear. This helps him search for potential prey/opponents if he has smelled them, or recognized their odor from a previous encounter. So if he catches their scent, he remembers it for the rest of his life.
Weakness:Speed Impairment: Fal doesn't have a speed boost, which makes evading techniques much harder then in most characters. His speed is average this moment.
Learned Techniques:Tekkai: Fal can harden his body to weaken the effects of blunt attacks, but this form of tekkai requires him to hold still.
Pathmaker: Fal swings his sword downwards creating a wind-like path that can cut through fire so he can run or walk through it without getting burned. At this moment it only works on fire and debris left in the air.
Down Purge: Fal swings his sword downwards with all of his might using one hand, usually it has enough force to slash completely through an average human body and continue moving to slash others. He can cut through 5 bodies without stopping with this technique.
Leg slicer: Fal swings his sword bellow the waist, attempting to separate the lower limbs from the opponents body.
Forward slash: Fal makes an exaggerated jump forward, about 5m, using his strength and attempting to slash the opponent in front of him.
The Impaler: Fal grabs an opponent and attempts to penetrate his blade through their bodies. With the amount of force used to penetrate the opponents body, Fal could even crack steel. Behind the opponent stabbed is usually a gust of wind, almost like a tiny shockwave, that blows through peoples hairs but causes no real damage; it's no more then an indication of its power.
Two Handed Slash: Fal's ultimate technique; he uses both of his hands and slashes downwards, or upwards, in an attempt to slash an opponent clean through. This technique can create a shockwave at later levels, like The Impaler, but is stronger because he uses both of his hands. Currently there is no shockwave, only a slicing of the sword with a crushing 1,000 pounds of pressure to whatever connects with his sword.
