Kook (Steven Vaughn) [Villain]

THE BASICS

PHYSICAL APPEARANCE

Steven Vaughn is an individual that you can tell is on the down and out with just one look. Tired eyes and a rather unhealthy skin complexion give hints as to what sort of shape that this man is in-- Yet despite all of this, he appears clean shaven, washed and groomed to even just the basic level. Typically, you can find this individual suited and booted, suited for an office environment with his eyes hidden away by a pair of sunglasses, even during the late afternoons and evenings when the sun has truly set-- A rather odd gesture but odd still is the glint in his eyes, something hidden behind base compliance that speaks of something not quite right, something envious-- Yet it is rare to catch a glimpse of such a thing.

PERSONALITY

Truth be told, Steven is an individual driven by his own hatred and discontent at the world at large but that isn't to say that he is a soulless person. To the contrary, Steven often finds himself at peace with the more isolationist of hobbies such as driving at night by himself and the more violent of interests; in particular, his notable fascination with firearms from their operation all the way down to the logistics and design choices of the weapons themselves as something to do with his down-time between work or his 'work'. History is also something that Steven finds great interest in, particularly history of his roots back in the United States but also other topics of historical eras around the globe. When he's not doing any of those things, however, Steven can mostly be found at home, watching movies-- Namely ones from a time long since passed.

However, for all his positives, the negatives are equally as ferocious as his positives are mostly docile-- His situation regarding his quirkless disadvantage has caused him shame and the spotlight of attention of many throughout his entire life, leaving a seething hatred for not only the fact that society has left said people in the dirt but has also any form of quirk user; be it from whatever background or side of the law, hell not even his parents are exempt. Steven is not a fan of animals, either, seeing them as pointless creatures that simply get in the way or a weak excuse to grow attached to something only to watch it pass away for the few choice years that it has to live and thus will show a complete disinterest into the matter. As if to top it all off, cities that are on the side of major status tend to leave Steven on edge, knowing that law enforcement and people are constantly around him-- Meaning that his 'work' tends to become more difficult when it comes to discretion.

BACKGROUND HISTORY

Steven Vaughn was born like any other child, as normal as one could be as the son of a US serviceman and his native wife. Everything, from the upbringing to the future that the child seemed to hold, seemed particularly bright; the child being smart and intelligent even when he was still fresh from the womb, a child of discovery and independence with the world his sandbox, just waiting to be claimed.

At least, that was his aspirations. Reality has a less-than-nice way of curb-stomping them to the ground. Where his friends and family had their quirks, as the years dragged on, it seemed that Steven was to be cast from inferior design. No quirk developed, no special properties reared its head. Steven was of a dying breed.

This, of course, came laced with scrutiny and eyes cast down upon him. School, college, work, all throughout his life people laughed at him, kicked him down, made a pit of misery suitable for a quirkless. Steven was outcast from society, treated like a rat beneath the boot of even the weakest, all held up upon their pedestal of being gifted with a quirk, fitting into this society that sought to weed out the weak.

The tipping point was reached. He'd show them just what a quirkless was capable of

All those years of being downtrodden and seen as lesser had left a gorge cut deep into the psyche of the shadow of a man that spent his days working a mindless job and earning barely enough to keep himself afloat. There was hatred, spite and a silent anger that roared like an inferno day and night yet, years of being subject to such abuse had provided Steven with the capacity to hide it away, play another person atop it like a masquerade; hiding the true intent of his actions.

A combat knife was stolen. Masks were brought and when he had his first target?

The Okinawa Slasher was born.

THE ARMORY

Combat Knife: Entrusted multi-tool of the United States Marine Corps, a utility in the defense of freedom-- Intentions corrupted by the hand that wields it.

Masks: Each one its own identity, to keep the secret of the one who wears them hidden.

Gloves: To ensure his mark cannot be found among the aftermath.

PDA: Better than a mobile phone, smaller than a personal computer. His daily, boring life is all that exists upon it.

QUIRK & SKILLS

Quirkless

TYPE: N/A
RANK/LEVEL: N/A
SUMMARY:
N/A


WEAKNESSES/LIMITATIONS:
N/A

RANK/LEVEL: F-
SUMMARY:
Being quirkless not only has its disadvantages in rendering the afflicted as an outcast to society but to stand up against those who seek to bully and stamp upon will almost always find themselves at a disadvantage. Steven is by no means an ordinary man, however, driven by such a sheer force of will and burning hatred that his entire life is slowly being overtaken by his 'work'. By no means is he a hardened combatant or professional soldier but from the lessons he's learnt from the first hit has given Steven his first taste of what his life's mission really is. He's handy with a knife and relies upon exploits and careful planning as opposed to a foolish die-hard approach.
