Synopsis
Metal; ❝ Let's Rumble. ❞


Description
Age: 24 
Appearance 
A slightly punk-like appearance, he’s got striking aqua green spiky hair, narrow violet eyes, and a tattoo that circulates his neck. Generally he’s seen walking around in a white tank top, black sweater, ripped jeans and sneakers. Still considered rather tall, Reed stands at about 5’10” and weighs 153lb. His knuckles are hardened and calloused from fights. For the most part, his hands and arms are rough for the same reason. In addition, he has a widow's peak hairline and a fake lip piercing; it can slip on and off without leaving a mark. 
When it comes to work, of course he has a uniform which he wears, sans any type of tie. He prefers none of that around his neck out of personal preference and that feels slightly suffocating to him. 


Personality
The first word that would come to mind if one was to describe his personality is arrogant; he’s excessively proud, especially of his fighting skills when it comes to hand-to-hand combat. He’s also rather vengeful unfortunately and would rarely throw aside a good excuse to knock someone out or get back at someone for something done against him. Granted, he is at least confident in his skills to get things done when required. He’s also resourceful and will use whatever is available to him. On a more positive outlook, if he gets along with someone, he will get along with them rather nicely. His circumstances have placed him into a situation where he is used to speaking with various different people. 


Equipment / Abilities
Element: Metal - The ability to manipulate metals; to morph it into various shapes and forms according to his will. 
Weapons: Aside from his fists and kicks, brass knuckles are the prime choice. If he’s going to use a weapon, he wants something that he can feel his power being smashed into his opponent. 

Strengths: 
> Brute strength – If you want power, he’s got it. From his high school days of delinquency, he’s gotten into enough fights to increase his physical power. 
> High Stamina – Getting ganged up isn’t at all a good thing, so with strength endurance is needed as well to keep up with the battles that are flying around. 
> A Sense of Humour – One of the likely reasons of why he still had actual friends in his teenage days. Though, likely at the expense of someone, he’s one to make jokes and such when he’s not angry. 
Weakness: 
> Not the greatest against ranged fighters – Unfortunately lacking in speed to close the gap to reach ranged fighters normally, Reed usually has to resort to other methods when dealing with these situations and ends up taking more damage than preferred. At least he still has reflexes. 
> A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye – He’s not really one that will forgive someone easily. If someone does something against him, he usually has to have his ‘vengence’. The degree usually depends on what was done against him. 


History
Born as the middle child of a family of five, Reed was given less attention to than his older sibling. There were expectations here and there thrown on him, for the most part he was left to his own devices. Unfortunately, he did end up in quite a bit of trouble because of his temperament and earned himself the title of juvenile delinquent. Of course, this led to his parents being rather disappointed in him and nagging at him or telling his younger sister to never follow his example. His attitude didn’t really change, though there was an improvement was him not using petty excuses to sink his fist into another kid’s face. 
When his older brother was of age, he was moved overseas to work. There were changes. First of all, his parents worried about the safety of his brother, and of course, he had his parent’s attention on him. There were many days where they would complain about why he wasn’t sent instead because he always ended up in fights and such. During such days Reed ended up leaving the house and staying over at his friend’s and not returning for another day or so. If they continued again, he left for a longer period of time and his process would repeat and extend. Eventually, he pretty much lived at his friend’s house and had most of what little belongings he had there. 

His friend’s parents were usually fine with having Reed over since he’d help them out at their bar to pay back what he owed for staying over. Generally, he would be a waiter of sorts, bringing customers their drinks and what not. Though, it was also often that he ended up helping to break up bar fights which meant he had to learn to block or divert oncoming blows that would be thrown towards him for entering the fray. In some cases he had to knock out whoever was drunk to stop them from causes further damage and such. 

As to his vision. It came to him abruptly while he was at work, after he had just finished bringing the drinks that a table ordered he felt faint. In the end he passed out on the floor causing a bit of a commotion. While he was out, visions of the occurrence in the Chamber of Time came to him, informing him of what happened and what he must do. When he awoke, he was on the couch back at his friend's house and felt some unknown power coursing through him. At this point, he doesn't have much of a choice but to go forth with the task that has been entrusted to him.
