The Palmetto wrote:Name: Francis “Secesh” Palmer
Origin: Dixieverse
Gender: Male
Age: 33
Species: Human (Modified)
Appearance: Secesh is a white male of Scottish heritage, about 6ft tall and 200 pounds. He was already tall before becoming a cyborg, but the operation made him weigh more due to the metal. He wears a modified Confederate Marines uniform, decorated with darker blue areas and decorative gold patterns and buttons as well. He has brown hair, and blue eyes, though he could change the color if he wanted, however. He also carries his rifle on his back, and a ceremonial sword on one hip and an ammunition satchel on the other. He wears a pale-blue cap with a golden rifle emblem on it as well, and kept it from his first encounter with Ignis. It was part of his original uniform, which had been destroyed except for the cap.
Powers & Abilities:
Enhanced Limb Power
As a result of the operation, Secesh's power in his limbs was greatly increased. He could use his bare hands to rip down wooden walls, and could easily run at Olympic-record speeds for short bursts. However, he has a limit, and his cybernetics will shut down and give him normal human strength if he goes too far.
Enhanced Endurance
Secesh's entire skeleton has been replaced by a mechanical machine skeleton, making him much more durable. He can take bullets directly to the spine and shrug it off, and can also survive the shockwaves from major explosions. It has a limit, however, and can't protect him from everything.
Healing Factor
His mechanical endoskeleton also granted him incredible healing abilities, being able to heal bullet wounds in mere seconds. However, larger chunks of flesh take larger amounts of time to finish, and though he can survive as long as his endoskeleton is intact, he be unable to move as just a skeleton until he finishes the slow process of rebuilding himself.
Rifle Marksmanship
During his military training, Secesh was taught many things: rifle marksmanship was no exception. He can shoot with above average, but not perfect accuracy, but he doesn't necessarily need it. His normal rounds can be fired in extremely rapid succession and are also as strong as a shotgun round. The knock back from this would injure most humans, but he doesn't have an issue with it thanks to his endoskeleton. He can also shoot several larger explosive rounds, which can decimate a futuristic tank or small building with only one shot. It is also armed with a heated bayonet, perfect for stabbing his enemies with a clean wound.
Fencing Skills
When he can't find his gun, or can't use it for some other reason, Secesh resorts to his ornamental sword. Crafted from alien metals with a Civil War aesthetic, it's not designed for combat, but can be used for It. Whether it's tearing through robots or people, he doesn't just start slashing randomly. He was trained in sword combat when he was younger, and though he's forgotten a fair amount of it, he still has above average skills in it. Of course, he would fail to take on an experienced sword fighter.
Survival Skills
When Secesh was an innocent young boy, he learned many skills, most of them focusing on the wild. He can create a fire from scratch, hunt large game, create shelters, create snares, locate water, cook, and is skilled in various other trivial survival matters. Many of these translate well when tracking people, and could certainly be used for such a purpose.
Weaknesses: He went to college and knows his stuff, but he’s still a dumb redneck who runs into fights without thinking. Corrosive liquid or anything that melts his body rather than fracture it will make regeneration a hell of a lot harder.
Attack Potency: Small building level
Speed: Superhuman
Lifting Strength: Superhuman
Striking Strength: Superhuman
Durability: Small building level (but will still cause significant harm. Above this is where attacks get lethal)
Stamina: Superhuman
Range: A few hundred feet, but only with his rifle. Don’t expect accuracy.
Intelligence: He went to a prestigious and expensive school, but isn’t really a scientist or anything.
Equipment on Hand: Confederate officer uniform, satchel with ammunition, advanced rifle, ornamental but durable sword, some trivial items, and his cybernetics
Brief Bio/History*: Francis Palmer, who would later be nicknamed Secesh, was born to a family of plantation owners on January 4th, 1834. He was named after his father, Frank Palmer, who was a wealthy plantation owner while Francis's mother was named Mary Palmer. He was the 7th child in his family, and a few years after giving birth to him, his mother died. His father had never really cared for Mary, and had only used her to give himself children and free labor. So, he was never especially depressed about it and raised his kids fairly normally without any depression. However, he did have his children raised with slaves, which were common on his massive plantation.
Francis grew up with a love of fighting, and he would commonly be caught rough-housing with his siblings growing up. But he also had a love of nature too, and enjoyed running around playing in the forest. He learned many tracking and hunting skills as a boy from fur-trappers, and was a common sight in the more rural areas of Charleston. He would constantly talk and chatter with people as a child, and many soldiers enjoyed watching the boy play around the forts. Though of course he had standard education for a child born into wealth, he learned most of his current skills from soldiers, hunters, etc. This would also inspire him to wish to become a soldier, something his father would protest against. He wanted his children to become wealthy plantation owners, not soldiers of war who may end up dead. This would set them down a path that ultimately left them divided as a family.
When he became a teenager, things didn't change much. He had to spend less time playing in the forest and more time in school, but still continued to fight and hunt, to his father's distress. His father eventually decided to do something about this, and sent him to a professional school in England where he would be forced to simply learn business skills, economics, and agricultural tips. He was extremely angry with this, but went along with it anyways. During this time, he met a peer named John, who was from the South as well. They became good friends, and would often hang out together. It was John himself who gave Francis his nickname: Secesh. It was inspired by the South Carolinian's desire for an independent Southern nation, and would stick with the wealthy Southerner.
After graduating and returning home in 1856, he felt more comfortable with the idea of working on a plantation, and took a job watching over the slaves that worked there. He didn't care about their suffering, as back then, most Southerners believed that the slaves were meant to work for the white man. This view point would be ripped from Secesh in the summer of 1958, when a runaway slave was trying to escape with his family to head up North. He followed suit, and after several long, grueling hours, had tracked him down. He kept running, an actual guise to distract Secesh from the other fleeing slaves. Secesh tried to shoot him in the shoulder to get him to stop running, but accidentally shot him in the heart and killed him. He had to watch the man die, and worse, in front of the man's wife and kids. He regretted this almost instantly, and with a change of heart, decided to let the man's family go. He left the plantation, and went off to go join the military. His father was furious, but in the end, couldn't change Secesh's mind or force him to do anything.
So, in 1859, Secesh officially joined the marines of the United States of America and received extensive training. His allegiances, however, would change in 1860, when South Carolina seceded from the Union and became an independent nation known as the Palmetto Republic. He retreated back to SC and worked exclusively there, and with the dawn of war apparent, received even more military training. Some time in the month of February, 1861 he got his first taste of unworldly adventure when he was teleported to a strange place by unknown forces. It's unknown what did happen there, but what is known is that he fell in love with a snake demon named Ignis. This would prove important, and he would constantly think of her after this encounter.
When he had returned from this adventure some time later, he had discovered several new things. South Carolina had joined up with the other southern to form the Confederate States of America, and had also gone to war with the United States of America. He was quick to get back to his work, participating in several battles of the Civil War. This war effort wasn't enough, and in 1863, they were losing. This wouldn't last for long, however. While on patrol, several soldiers had discovered a downed alien aircraft in South Carolina, and sent it to the scientists. The scientists managed to reverse engineer the technology, and their first experiment was creating a cyborg super-soldier. Secesh was quick to volunteer to serve his nation, and the operation was a success. Gifted with a variety of new powers and an advanced rifle, he set out to win the war, and win the war he did. By late 1864, Union numbers and industry had been decimated by a single battalion under Secesh's command, where his powers helped him significantly. He was able to take on legions of soldiers and win, leaving nothing but bones and ash whenever he attacked. He had no quarrels killing all these soldiers, they had chosen to fight this war, after all, and knew the risk when they joined the army.
Brief Personality Description*: Secesh is generally brash and hard-headed. He often barges into a situation without planning anything, and is easily angered when sensitive topics are brought up. He enjoys physical combat, and often uses it to vent his anger. He's very stubborn, and never gives up. As a soldier, social events were common, so he won't shy away from meeting new people. Though he'll typically keep them at an emotional distance, he does value those who have warmed up to him. As a matter of fact, he's willing to go to extremely far lengths to keep them, even going across the multiverse in search of his lover. He's also tried to hide less desirable aspects of his personality from people he cares about, but this hasn't gone very well. Though he keeps close ties to his loved ones, he doesn't care much for his family.
He's racist towards people of other races, with exceptions, but is currently working on it. This constantly puts him at odds with others, which can make negotiating with others troublesome. Ironically, he's actually against slavery, which has put him at odds with other southerners. His thoughts on the Confederacy are clouded and mixed, but since meeting Ignis, they've started to become more negative. Though he recognizes the government's desire to keep slavery, he still wants to protect his home from the Northern invaders.

Brief Bio/History*: The game is set in a Nippon (Japan) based on Japanese folklore and begins in one hundred years in the past. The narrator describes how the white wolf Shiranui and swordsman Nagi fought and sealed the eight-headed demon Orochi at the cave, to save Kamiki Village and Nagi's beloved maiden Nami.
In the game's present, Nagi's descendant and self-proclaimed greatest warrior, Susano, refuses to believe in Nagi's legend and frees Orochi, who escapes and curses the lands, sapping the life from Nippon. Sakuya, the wood sprite and guardian of Kamiki Village, calls forth Amaterasu, the sun goddess, known to the villagers as the reincarnation of the white wolf Shiranui, and asks her to remove the curse that covers the land. Accompanied by the artist Issun (an inch-high creature known as a Poncle), Amaterasu begins to restore the land to its normal state.
Throughout her journey, Amaterasu confronts Waka, a handsome and strange but powerful individual who seems to have the gift of foresight and further teases Amaterasu and Issun to his own mysterious ends. Additionally, Amaterasu locates several Celestial Gods hidden in constellations, who bestow upon her their powers of the Celestial Brush to aid in her quest.
After Amaterasu and Susano defeat Orochi to save Kushi, recreating past events, Orochi's spirit floats northward. Amaterasu and Issun embark on a journey across Nippon, first arriving at Ryoshima Coast and Sei-An City, the capital of Nippon. There, they work with the beautiful priestess Rao, the legendary submarine Dragon Kingdom, and the reclusive Queen Himiko to rid the coastline and city of Orochi's influence, including destroying a demonic plague and retrieving a mystical weapon from a sunken trading ship. However, it is revealed that the real Rao was killed before Amaterasu arrived, and the Rao they had been working with was the false fox god, Ninetails, who murders Himiko before returning to her fortress on the elusive Oni Island. Amaterasu and Issun eventually find and kill Ninetails, noticing that her spirit, like Orochi's, travels to the icy northern island of Kamui. The two decide to travel northward to find the source of the demons.
In Kamui, Amaterasu assists the Oina tribe defeat two recently-revived demons, Lechku and Nechku, who were creating a deadly blizzard that threatened to destroy the island. In addition to this, Amaterasu discovers that Issun ran away from his home of Ponc'tan to escape his responsibility of being a Celestial Envoy - a messenger of the gods - and his abusive grandfather. After defeating Lechku and Nechku, Amaterasu discovers the wreckage of a flying ship made of iron: the "Ark of Yamato", trapped in the frozen plains of Kamui. Waka appears and reveals himself to be a member of the Moon Tribe, a long-living race who used the Ark to sail and escape from the Celestial Plain that Orochi invaded. The demons attacked and killed the rest of the Celestials before the Ark fell to earth, releasing the demons upon the mortal world. After defeating the spirits of the felled demons again at the Ark, Amaterasu confronts Yami, the machine-esque leader of the demons who led the genocide of the gods ages ago. After a long battle, Yami drains her power and nearly destroys the Celestial Gods. Before it can do so, Issun, finally accepting his role as a Celestial Envoy, encourages all those they have helped to send their thoughts and prayers to Amaterasu, who regains her powers and defeats Yami, ridding Nippon of all demons. Amaterasu and Waka take control on the Ark and sail back to the Celestial Plain, determined to rebuild the land of the gods.
Brief Personality Description*: Ammy tends to fall asleep at various times during conversations, she cares about everyone that she meets and doesn't like betrayals.
