Know thy Enemy
Tactician: standard (rank 1)
In my training I was taught that in order to take out an enemy you need to not only observe their weaknesses, but also their strengths. Basically this means you have to be very observant at what your enemy does. A person's body language can tell you their whole life's story. Especially when people tend to overcompensate for fear of weakness. For example a guy might try to act all tough because he's afraid to show emotion so becomes hateful or violent to people who get overly emotional or a rich billionaire who wants to have everything because he fears that one day he might have nothing. Or you can look at it from a physical perspective, such as a person's movements. I usually notice which particular limb a person favors, direction they'll go most often, their habitual cues and their pet peeves. It takes only moments to get all the tells. I tend to get more if the person is particularly talkative.
Fight or Flight
Flight: standard (rank 1)
It's funny how often people don't look up. Whether I'm spying on them from a high vantage point or flying down coming in for the kill, the last place they always look is up. Then again a flying demon boy in the air isn't something people see everyday. Not to mention I usually fly faster than their eyes could follow. Though for the few times I've actually gotten into trouble, which now that I think about it is way more than a few, my wings have come in handy in providing me some space between me and my enemies. Though just long enough for me to soar back into action.
Living on the Edge
Regeneration: standard (rank 1)
I know a thing about pain. For the most part it hurts, but as long as you're not dead then you can recover from it. With this healing factor of mine I can recover from most lacerations in minutes cuts in seconds. Though more serious injuries can still kill me I'm still more likely to survive them better than most other people. Also it allows me to test my limits, to take on more dangerous missions and to fight harder than anyone else. Overall it's a very useful ability that I don't plan on wasting by being reckless. If I ever need to test its limits then it's usually because I have no other choice.
Spring into Action
Acrobat: standard (rank 1)
I'm may not be a ballerina, but I am very light on my feet. With my lightweight bone structure and wings to help me manipulate my balance I can move around faster, smoother and skillfully without much effort. On the battlefield it's especially needed since I'm usually maneuvering towards the enemy while dodging gunfire and debris. More often than not I find myself ducking and dodging more on the ground than in the air. This is either because the people I fight can't aim for shit or that in the air my speed combined with my agility makes me nearly impossible to hit. Either way I plan on making it tough for anyone to take me out.
A Pin Drop
Hyper-Senses: standard (rank 1)
Out of all my skills and abilities my senses are probably what makes me so useful. Ever since the Orphanage discovered my ability I've been trained in this area. They discovered that my sight and smell worked twice as well than most people could handle. That while bright lights were painful for my eyes that I had near perfect night vision. Though none of that compared to my hearing, which was capable of picking up a person's heartbeat in a crowd several feet away or hearing several assassins approaching in an ambush. This skill was used a lot later when I became involved in several missions where my senses were heavily relied upon by my teammates.
Gun X Blade
Slashing Weapon: standard (rank 1)
- Ranged Attack
- Multi-Attack
When it comes to weapons I have my own style. I carry a dual pair of pistols that are specially customized with blades underneath the barrels so that they can be used for both close-range and long-range combat. This helps when I want to attack from above or get in real close. The idea first came to me a few years back when I was still in training. During missions I would often carry both a knife a pistol. I figured I'd become twice as more efficient if I combine both weapons together. I had the pistol blades made for me and as I expected my style of fighting improved quite a bit. The weapons adapted quite well to my fast paced style of fighting and fit in perfectly when I used it as a tactic for controlling my battles.
