Appearance

Belle's appearance has pretty much stayed constant throughout his life. He prefers to wear loose fitting clothing, traditionally a black tank top and blue trousers, both of which are faded from washing and patched or frayed in places. He's muscular - powerfully so, but not to the point where it would be gross/hinder his agility too much. His eyes and hair stand at stark contrasts to one another, the former being a light, icy blue, the color of the sky on a bright and sunny day, while his hair is almost blood red, kept short and wild.

Personality

Belle in his usual stuff

In a word? Abrasive. Belle simply does not trust anyone - particularly girls. Even other men he sees as nothing but mere challenges on the road of life, obstacles for him to overcome. As a consequence of growing up alone, he has underdeveloped interpersonal skills, and has learned to rely only on himself. It's very rare that he'll ask for help - even if it's clear when he desperately needs it.

However, it's not all bad. Although his isolation makes it difficult to get along, he is fiercely loyal to those he takes under his protection. Belle is guileless, will be blunt to the point of rudeness, and is a truly terrible liar. His emotions always ride very close to the surface, with very little filter between his brain and his mouth, so he can always be counted on to speak his mind.

Belle has a great deal of pride and a never-say-die attitude that comes through in his fighting.

Background

Belle's earliest memories are of the forest. Actually, most of his memories are. Belle never had much of a 'stable home' as a child, always moving from place to place, usually overland and cutting through all kinds of wilds. His father, eternally cursed with an abysmal sense of direction, never seemed to put much stock in having a house and home. Rare were the days when they would venture into the city, for which Belle was thankful - the hustle and bustle, the noise, and the smells annoyed him to no end. Cities were also the lair of Women, that strange mystery that his father often spoke in dire tones about.

The only other thing aside from hiking was martial arts. Belle's father began to instruct him from the moment Belle could form a fist. Belle learned quickly, picking up his parent's skills over the course of a few years. Towards the end of their time together, Belle was surpassing his father in sparring on a daily basis.

A few years ago, Belle's father headed off to get some beer, never to be heard from again. Ryoga's disappearances were not uncommon, however, and Belle had had to contend with his absence for months at a time before. It wasn't until the six month mark when Belle started to suspect that his dad had gotten really, truly lost, before setting off on his own.

Special Abilities

(These are skills, things that can be learned or trained, like martial arts techniques, Jutsu or magic spells. Abilities that are outside the norm of regular humans, but only because they have not had access to them.)

• Bakusai Tenketsu (Breaking Point Strike) - The ability to 'break' inanimate objects with a precisely timed touch. Can be used to either make the target crumble, shatter, or even explode. Does not work against organic/living creatures.
  • • Bakusai Garyu [Breaking Dragon Fang]: A technique where the user uses their feet to perform Bakusai Tenketsu, riding the explosive force to dramatically accelerate a charging attack.
  • Second Layer: The ability to 'break' liquids with the same effect as the normal technique. Typically limited to explosions.
  • Third Layer: The ability to 'break' air with the same effect as the normal technique. Limited to explosions.
    • Bakusai Suisei [Breaking Comet]: A technique using the third layer. Similar to Garyu, except the user uses their feet to ricochet off the air above their opponent, descending on them like a falling comet.

• Chakra Control - Ability to manipulate the body's natural spiritual energy. Enables chakra/ki attacks, as well as other techniques.
  • Trained in tree-walking. By concentrating ki in the feet, allows the user to stick to walls, ceilings, and other otherwise unscalable surfaces.
  • Trained in water-walking. By ejecting a set amount of ki from points in the feet, allows the user to balance out their own weight and walk along the surface of water.

• Emotion Blasts - This subset of ki attacks are fueled by a user's emotional state, to damage those with emotions.
  • Shishi Hokodan: Depression. A move that Belle doesn't get to use often. This blast sends a wave of heavy energy straight upwards, crashing down a second later. As Belle is drained of emotion during this time, he is immune to the effects.
  • Mouko Takabisha: Confidence. A short-range blast of cerulean energy launched from the hands. Heavy kinetic damage.
  • Yacho Tosshin: Determination. Belle's ultimate attack. The user's dominant arm crackles with red electricity, their ki spiking with a short ramp-up time. The blast is unleashed by punching towards the target, launching a straight, wide-beam attack of incredible force and heat capable of killing metahumans. This is a 'last ditch' technique, however, as it leaves him drained of 'determination' for several minutes, during which he effectively cannot take any action.

Update: Extended training with the members of Inspiratio has increased Belle's capabilities with these techniques. By scaling back the commitment of his emotions to the blasts and supplementing them with his own ki, he is able to fire off series of blasts in rapid succession. Yacho Tosshin benefits the most from this, allowing Belle a limit of three attacks before becoming drained, rather than the previous limit of one.

This modification has also allowed the creation of 'twined' attacks, where the user fires off a blast from each hand. Belle's most notable technique to come out of this development is the Yacho Tosshin version, the Yacho Soutou.

• • Yacho Soutou (Boar's Complete Annihilation): The twined version of Yacho Tosshin. Similar in appearance to the Yacho Tosshin, only involving both arms. At the time of release, Belle puts the heels of his palms together, palms out to the target, bringing the two blasts together into one. The Yacho Soutou has staggering destructive power. A miss with the technique during the final stages of its development was shown to take the peak off a mountain. While the Yacho Tosshin is dangerous and 'merely' capable of being lethal, Yacho Soutou can only be qualified as a killing technique.

• Chakra Armor - Similar to Chakra Enhanced Strength. Instead of releasing an amount of chakra at the moment of a punch to enhance its power, the user of this technique expels a short burst of chakra at the moment of being struck, killing forward momentum of the blow and significantly lessening the damage.

• Cursed Seal - "The Cursed Seal of Heaven is one of the strongest of Orochimaru's Cursed Seals, the other being its counterpart, the Cursed Seal of Earth. The seal consists of three tomoe (the design known as mitsudomoe), similar to the Sharingan, which, when activated, spread flame-like markings across the user's body. Like all Cursed Seals, the user receives increased chakra levels and physical capabilities when the seal is active." It was bestowed upon Belle by Orochimaru's descendant, Orochiko, and sealed by Sachiko.
  • Cursed Seal-Level 2 - The user expands to the level 2 version of the seal's effects by going through a metamorphosis, using one of Orochimaru's jutsus and being sealed inside a specially made barrel. Thereafter, the user is able to ascend to this level. Belle skin becomes a darker shade of brown, more the color of the earth, and his hair grows longer and gray in color. Level 2 forms tend to differ in the abilities they bestow. For Belle, whose existence has been focused on accumulating strength, his muscle mass increases by several fold, ballooning to grotesque levels. Bizarrely, this increased mass does not appear to affect his speed. In addition to greatly enhanced strength, Belle is also able to redistribute the mass from one area of his body to another, seemingly at will. He could, for instance, forego the increase in one arm to make the other increase by twice as much, or to redirect the mass in the rest of his body into both of his arms.

Tarot Blessing

The Bound Woman tarot card.

If the Tarot card's user is in dire need and under specific circumstances, The tarot card Hero will grant assistance to them with their fight.

• The Bound Woman - Belle pulled the fortune of The Bound Woman champion, Alice. Alice is a powerful white mage who uses her power of faith to boost and aid her allies. Currently Alice only offers one attack for Belle:
  • Holy Attack - Alice appears with her book of spells, speaking a quick incantation which will summon forth a large Holy Attack to the adversary in front of her.
