Armed with a steely self-assurance and absolutely not one shit given about what anyone thinks of him, it's hard to tell that K'shiel was born in a lab and raised to be an obedient killing machine. He's not obedient. He's a headache.

[break][break]

K'shiel is selfish and demanding. He's also lazy, prone to napping, prone to distractions, and prone to not taking things very seriously. Yet when he is serious, he is ruthless and amoral, singularly fixated on his goals.

[break][break]

He's cocky but far from foolish. His powers facilitate retreat, and failure doesn't deter him. If anything, being stumped by a decent challenge is exciting.

[break][break]

He doesn't care for Spectre, but he does take pride in a job well done.



Spectre exchanged twelve human infants for twelve fae infants. Subject Seven is one of their attempts to engineer a fae creature into a living weapon.

[break][break]

Spectre almost wrote down Subject Seven as an abject failure. Brainwashing didn't work. Subject Seven questioned orders--constantly. He asked why. He said no. He said fuck off. It was a shame, because Subject Seven was the only one of the dozen to survive.

[break][break]

He saved himself by latching onto Wildfire. He's loyal to him, in that way that cats seem to own their owner, and Spectre hasn't had problems getting Subject Seven to cooperate ever since.

[break][break]

He's always known his true name is K'shiel, which he prefers. He's also Abyssinian, a codename he uses when conducting missions. He only answers to Subject Seven if he feels like it.

[break][break]

Abyssinian is an assassin that does not exist. He is too young to have a long history, and he's safeguarded his identity well. No one has information on him, and that is the way he likes it.

K'shiel has enhanced speed, balance, agility, and reflexes. He has impressive strength, stamina, and durability. He has excellent night vision, the ability to track targets by instinct and scent, and a general aptitude for stealth.



Thanks to Spectre, his bones are encased in adamantium (also known as vibranium), a virtually indestructible metal. His bones are unbreakable, and an extra 100kg of weight makes him far stronger than his size indicates.

[break][break]

K'shiel has retractable adamantium claws that can cut through most physical substances. They go snikt.



K'shiel is typically physical and corporeal, but despite Spectre's modifications, he can still take true fae form at will, making him something of a ghost, an aetherial spirit that exists between realities.

[break][break]

When aetherial, wrought iron repels him, and enough of it, such putting him in chains of wrought iron, would prevent him from taking aetherial form altogether.

[break][break]

Aether form allows him the following:[break][break]

• INCORPOREAL[break]
  He becomes incorporeal and invisible. He can neither be seen nor touched, but he can still perceive the world around him.
  
  [break][break]Mediums and the like can sense his presence.
• REGENERATION[break]
  He absorbs energy of any sort as sustenance, from the creative energy of dreamers to mundane electricity to energy blasts. It's used to regenerate himself until he is whole, adamantium skeleton included. Severe wounds may take hours or days to heal.
• TELEPORTATION[break]
  In aetherial form, K'shiel is unhindered by concepts of space and time. He can move wherever he wants whenever he wants, effectively teleporting across the physical plane by poofing into the aether and back again.
  [break][break]
  He can only teleport himself, but he can choose to take with him any inanimate objects that he can physically carry.

He prefers to push his advantage of speed, stealth, and mobility. Appear out of aether, strike once and true, gone--like he was never there.

[break][break]

Yet he has spent the vast majority of his six years training hand-to-hand combat. He's had little opportunity to put his skills into practice because his targets tend to die quickly. He's also trained in firearms and most weapons, but he prefers his own claws.



K'shiel is immune to brainwashing and mind control. His mind is too mercurial to grasp or command. Spectre has found this most problematic.
