Character Name: Kobra
Race: Human with some demonic blood
Gender: Male
Group: None
Position: N/A
Description: Kobra is in decent condition, he is fit though has an almost wiry frame. He is bald, though many would find him somewhat attractive. Kobra often wears black and trench coats, which enables him to conceal certain sorts of weapons.
History: Kobra was born a child to two humans. Indeed, two humans, though one with a darker past then most. His father carried the blood of a demon, and his grandfather himself was a half demon. Thus this blood diluted him, yet while he appeared normal he was anything but. As a child he alway seemed more physically fit and much stronger. He could practically overwhelm bullies in the schoolyard, and he could impress teachers with an above average intelligence.
Despite these great advantages, the demon blood haunted him. He would often experience violent outbursts, and would destroy furniture. In high school it led him on a path of self destruction. And even worse... it led vampires and demons to his parents' door, in which one evening he found them dead, torn apart, and slain. Running away, he had to find some truth behind all this. It wasn't until he met an old Irish Priest named Fearghus that he learned the truth.
He carried the blood of a demon and was special. Fearghus turned out to be part of a tradition of priests that did not follow the mainstream religions but old Celtic traditions. He took Kobra under his wing and trained him to fight, to hunt. It was this training that made him a Hunter... a Demon Hunter. To complete the training, he was given a sword called Demonbane, enchanted to be able to detect any demons nearby, and to be able to burn even the most wicked demons. Indeed, he set out to LA, the truly most wicked areas. It was time to cleanse the wicked.
Items: Demonbane - A sword that can burn any demon it touches, and can detect demonic presences.
Powers: None with the exception of a bit better "constitution" as well as being slightly stronger then most men.

Kobra
Looks pretty good, not very long, but alot better than most of the stuff we see :P. Anyone one else going to chime in?
Kobra
It's short mostly cause a character is more fun to play when I unravel just who he is as we go along, and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised should he be accepted :)
Kobra
I like it -but I'm waiting to see if we can get one or two more responses before we slip it into the PC forum...However feel free to write little vignettes if you want that expand on his origin...how he got to LA...
Kobra
Well, I guess I can't really comment, since I invited him. :) My first comment on IM was that it seemed a little sparser than his usual writings, but as he said here he wants to flesh Kobra out on the fly. I can relate to that - Tash's initial profile, while dense, still had a lot of unanswered questions. Hell, I had no idea what Matthias' secret was until half-way through Season One. :)
Kobra
I like him too :D
Kobra
Well, i think Kobra has been accepted, so we should move him into Character forum....
Also on last little suggestion. does Kobra have a real name? Kobra must be like a alias he's taken right. I fail to believe any parents would name their kid Kobra :P
Kobra
Already moved it ;) and the only name he's ever known is Kobra. Theres a reason to be discovered :)
Kobra
Yet they wouldn't name their kids things like Apple? Or Banjo? Hell, there was one couple who named their child Pilot Inspektor.
Kobra
well clearly Pilot Inspektor is so much more normal than Kobra :P
Kobra
Pffft. Tell that to GI Joes Kommander Kobra. Or Mortal Kombat's Kobra.
