Personality: Kenshiro is a cocky and arrogant fighter, he's sure of his fighting prowess and will not stop twice to remind you of it. Usually when you're on the ground from his incredibly strong punches. He has a sense of black humour about him as well, spouting his usual one liner of "You're already dead..." to someone before delivering the coup de grace. His outlook on death is also skewed, his father had died from a duel with an opponent much stronger and his mother killed by the thugs of said opponent. Without his father's guidance he took on a sloppier version of the fighting style which reflects his brawler nature.
Weaknesses:[/b] Ken is weak to most mental attacks, they bring his concentration to a halt meaning his Hokuto Shinken attacks are useless. Ken is also quick to anger, making him an easy target if he's beyond his usual anger threshold.
Powers:[/b] Ken uses a form of Hokuto Shinken an ancient fighting style utilizing pressure points and manipulating the meridian points to destroy the body from the inside out. Ken's form is much more sloppy than his fathers, it still has the same effect but his punches hit more like a brawler's than an expert martial artist. He also tends to occasionally just explode one part of the body, not utterly destroying the opponent like his father was able to. Ken's speciality was healing, using his Hokuto Shinken skills he can use pressure points to heal almost any non fatal ailment or injury. Ken can also throw the occasional fireball from his palms if concentrating enough.
Abilities:(Different From Powers): Ken was trained in Jeet Kune Do from a young age by his parents, he tended to hone these abilities in school during various fights he was involved in. These gave him more of a street edge to his martial arts skills. Sadly, Ken's parents died before he had a chance to fully master both his Hokuto Shinken powers or his Jeet Kune Do skills, making his fighting style more akin to MMA or street brawling. Ken is also a good thief and accomplished motorcycle rider, able to outrun most police and even talk his way out of an arrest or two with his charm.
Weapons: Anything he can get his hands on.
History: Kenshiro was born in Osaka, Japan to Kenshiro Kasumi and Lady Shiva. He was trained in a young age in various martial arts. Studying mostly in a Jeet Kune Do variant of Hokuto Shinken, an ancient assassination art practised by his father. His mother, a great martial artist on her own tended to simply teach the boy how to use various weapons. The area the family lived was a stomping ground for local Yakuza, making life very difficult for the three of them. The local thugs seemed to target his father due to his reputation as the strongest fighter in all of Japan, this coupled with his bad health gave him the idea to send away Ken to the U.S.A. for a life away from the Yakuza reign.
On Ken's 11th birthday he received a message from his mother, Lady Shiva. She told the young man that his father had been brutally murdered by a Yakuza martial artist who had embraced a demonic entity within him and it was only a matter of time before she was next. Ken knew it, his parents were dead and he was on his own now. The years passed, Ken honed his body to become a living weapon. He was going to be unstoppable, he would take up the mantle as Fist of the North Star and utterly destroy all those in his path.
