Wanting to help the ones on this planet, he arrived and began to observe the planet and its citizens.

ABILITIES AND EQUIPMENT

shapeshifting- Rook can shift his body, being able to change his skin, limbs, or hair in any way he wants. he mainly uses it to sneak into places, though In recent times he has begun to use it in fights, by changing the location of his organs and turning his arms into blades. The only weakness of this shapeshifting is that it can't create more biomass, so he can't have more then two arms without getting rid of his legs.

Sensei Gifts- Using his Mark of the Star Child, Rook is able to have access to different gifts. the one he was born with, is the gift of detectivery. This allows him to be an amazing detective, solving cases that would likely take days for others, in minutes. He's second gift is the gift of marksmanship, this allows him to have complete mastery over guns and ranged weapons, being able to do feats no other person would be able to. His third gift is the one of shapeshifters(see shapeshifting for more details), his fourth and most current gift is the mastery of swords, being the most recent gift, makes it so he still has to get used to it.

Special rounds- Rook has an assortment of special elemental rounds he can use in his guns.

Fire rounds- This round, when shot, explodes in a wall of fire (rook mainly uses this to create walls of fire)

Ice rounds- this round creates a wall of ice (Rook uses this too block incoming attacks)

acid rounds- this round explodes in acid, covering whoever is hit by it in acid able to melt the found easily (Rook mainly uses this to melt off armor on heavy armor opponents

scatter rounds- this round, when fired, releases many little balls of steel that bounce very easily off of walls and each other (Rook mainly uses this in confined places like tunnels or caves)

explosive rounds- these rounds explode on contact, with one of them being able to easily collapse a tree (Rook uses these in many scenarios, mainly just to inflict lots of damage)

wire rounds- These rounds connect two spots in wire, allowing rook to step on the wire and have greater mobility (Rook mainly uses this in open areas, such as a colosseum

PERSONALITY

rook is a kind soul, always looking to help other. he believes that there is no such thing as an evil person, only believing that there are bad people who haven't tried to redeem themselves. This behavior is most likely due to his nature as a sensei. being a sensei he can not become angry easily nor can he fear easily. He may be a bit overprotective at times, most notably when he's with Orestes(his current girlfriend).

BACKSTORY

BEFORE PLANET {REDACTED]

Rook(or his actual name Xavier) was born on terra a couple hundred years before the age of strive. During this time he had been taken care of by his mother, not knowing of his sensei origins until his brother troph came and told him about his true origins. He then spent the age of strive wandering the lands with troph, becoming heroes across the land and encouraging Xaviers future career in crime fighting. Nearing the end of the age of strive, troph for some reason had left Xavier by himself, not elaborating on why he had to leave but trusting that Xavier could take care of himself. Xavier, with no real idea of what to do without his brother, had gotten a ship he named, "Sally" in honor of his mother. He proceeded to roam the universe, helping others and enlisting a sort of adventuring group to help him in his quests. This group consisted of an Eldar nicknamed Hilda( she would later become his first love), a harlequin called Sly(but spelled SLI), some orgryns and some other humans who also wanted to help rook in his journey. They had helped many, resulting in them getting the name "The Saviors". One day they had gotten a distress call from a planet in which they named "Void 9". they had gone to check it out, but it had been an ambush set by the inquisition. Everyone died except Xavier, the only reason he stayed alive is because one of his orgyn friends had used his own body to shield rook from the gunfire. After the ambush, Xavier went into a blind rage and killed everyone on the planet, leaving only the children alive. This event would later be called, "The Void 9 massacre". after regaining his senses, Xavier, being horrified by his actions, had gotten rid of his original name and promised himself he would help others and not let a single person die because of him. Xavier then went silent, helping others from the shadows and getting tech that would allow him to turn off his blank and allow him to blend in more easily. This combined with his shapeshifting abilities, was enough to keep him hidden from the inquisition but also allow him to help others. When his fellow sensei had gone to Levilnor IV, he had not since he saw it as a waste of time. After hearing of the massacre, he joined up with the remaining sensei, and wandered in packs with them. during this time 7 of the 22 had become apotheosized. After a couple hundred years, the inquisition had become desperate and unleashed its greatest evil on the sensei, The Rectoniaan. This led to them almost getting retconned, but thanks to a combination of souls, they managed to keep their souls alive in Xavier's body. With his fellow sensei in his mind and newfound wisdom., Xavier did what he did best and helped others.He then became aware of planet [redacted}'s existence and had gone to visit it

WHILE ON PLANET [REDACTED]

Xavier had observed the planet for a good while, doing some scouting and other things to prepare himself for the moment in which he would reveal himself. He did so and gave the Lord Commander Kat the name, Rook. Rook began questioning its citizens, to find out who was a threat and who wasn't. During this time he would meet his future girlfriend, Orestes. After doing some work around the planet, he started to settle in and created a manor for himself in the northern region. He eventually attracted the attention of an inquisitor named malek. Malek had been searching for Rook for a long time, finally finding him on the planet [redacted]. he revealed Rook's true origins as a sensei to the entire planet, he then put a bounty on his head. Rook had proceeded to assassinate Malek and find a key. This key would let Rook reconstruct his fellow sensei's bodies. He is currently manufacturing his fellow sensei bodies and introducing them to the planet and its inhabitants.
