Age: 32
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Alignment: Evil
Canon or Original: Canon
Date of Birth: 10/13/79
Place of Birth: Isafaro
Physical Appearance: 6'8, 350lbs (425lbs when injected with the Venom), Bane is a monster of a man and even without the Venom that increases his size and strength you'd swear he was more than just a man. Laying beneath the mask of the Hispanic male is short jet black hair, and brown eyes that has seen many things in his youth.
Personality: Bane is far from just another brainless powerhouse that doesn't know what he's doing. He has proven to possess a very high intellect crossing the borders of genius, experienced in the ways of wars, the sciences, demon lore and languages thanks to the many books he could get his hands on growing up. Rest assure there is always meaning to his actions deep within the guises of what morality declares to be "evil".
Special Abilities: Through the super-steroid known as "Venom" his physical attributes are all increased to superhuman levels making him a formidable foe to even the deadliest of supernatural beings that exist in and outside the world of Genesis. More specifically he receives superhuman strength, enhanced speed and reflexes, superhuman endurance, stamina and durability and last but not least superhuman healing.
Even without the Venom Bane proves to be in primarily condition that puts many athletes to shame. His photographic memory permits him to memorize virtually anything he sees and his thoughts are so quick and intense that the strongest of telepaths in the world cannot read his mind making him the perfect warrior in both body and mind.
Weapons: Whatever he can get his hands on
History: Bane was damned from the very beginning as he was destined to serve the life sentence of his father behind lock and key in one of Isafaro's many prisons. However this did not stop the natural abilities of Bane from developing extraordinary skills within its walls; reading as many books as he could get his hands on and building up his body via the prison's gymnasium. The prison life in and of itself was more than sufficient enough to teach a young Bane how to fight. Though the odds were against him Bane managed to find teachers of various sorts during his incarceration, from convicts to elderly Jesuit priests, receiving a classical education from them all.
Growing up Bane had a teddy bear named Osito (Spanish for "little bear"), whom he considered his only friend. Osito has a hole in the back which contains a knife, this knife would be the weapon of choice in his first murder at age eight and was continued to be used to threaten anyone that bullied him. In his dreams a mysterious demonic bird would claw away at his face with its talons, ripping out his eyes every time before he would finally wake up. He never could figure out what those dreams or the bird represented but they resulted in many sleepless night.
Far into his prime Bane established himself as the "king" of the prison and became noticed by the Isafaro research team who proceeded to force him to become a test subject for a mysterious drug called "Venom", which had killed off every other test subject that came long before him. It even nearly succeeded in killing him but through a miracle, and showcase of will, Bane survived the effects and became a successful test subject of the Venom but now he has to take it every 12 hours or suffer debilitating side-effects.
No longer content with being a mere prisoner Bane escaped and left Isafaro where he would soon hear stories of a warrior simply known as "The Night Angel" who's said to be able strike fear into the hearts of her adversaries and who's very talons can rip you limb from limb. Linking this warrior back to the mysterious demonic bird of his dreams Bane believes that fate is leading him to a confrontation with this "Night Angel". Knowing a straight up assault would be suicide Bane traveled through the deepest regions of the expanse, finding an old and ancient vampire and demon clan underneath heavy amounts of crystal, he broke them free and sent them on a rampage towards Hallowton, the nation where Night Angel's sightings had been reported from various lesser demons trying to find someone crazy enough to take her down. Solely responsible for the attacks on Hallowton for the past two months, Bane watches and waits,
to face his nightmare!
(Permission to be the cause of the various attacks on Hallowton granted by Maricul).
