Personality
Alpha's personality is an extension of who I want to be. What makes him different from me personally though is his demeanor. He his very kind, charming, and warm to everyone to a near fatherly level. Alpha is inherently the perfect combination of a charming gentleman and a rogue savage. He conducts himself with a flare of sensuality and psychological social dominance that no other can exude without practice. From serving as a Predator Class Citizen, he is regarded mostly for being a duty-bound, honor-driven, and influential leader.
His demeanor changes to be more brutish and savage when he engages in competition, combat, hunting, or emotional and/or mental duress. He can be every bit as intimidating as he appears. Often he uses his appearance and mannerisms to his advantage to frighten his "prey" (a name he uses for his opponents or anyone he seeks to "compete" with) and play head games. Alpha fully commits to a decided action with feral instinct to dominate it with gusto. He lavishes on whatever field of competition put before him.
But despite his skills in his profession, social strength, and physical strength, Alpha does have difficulty learning and adapting to learning technical material. He has basic Math, English, and Science knowledge but beyond that he is extremely challenged in learning technical information, especially when he finds it irrelevant to his goals or tedious due to its complexity. He often leaves such things for his companion, Paragon, to decipher because his upbringing as a mercenary and a hunter never required a formal education.
This doesn't make him a dumb brute though, he is highly philosophical and enjoys a good read that challenges his way of thinking every once in a while. Such books therefore build on his ideals and strengthen his predatory mind and manage his sanity. As a result, complex ideals come relatively easy for him to understand; he even has a gift for critical thinking and interpreting philosophical values based on his experiences and those he reads about.
Another fault in character that Alpha exudes is his highly competitive attitude to every situation he encounters. At times however he can get in over his head, due the extra amounts of testosterone pumping through his bio-enhanced veins. His judgments can sometimes be impaired by his emotional state (or his ego). He often finds himself in situations were his instincts give him predatory insight into how to manipulate people who are weaker in mindset than him with usually his voice and actions alone. Due to being raised in a highly violent and unforgiving world, he has convinced himself that everything is a game deserving to be played by those who know how to play it right. He embraces the spirit of competition as an honor code to justify his stance on conflicts he exposes himself to. This attitude tends to lead to misunderstandings and and often leans his behavior toward appearing more antagonistic than he actually is.
Mind, Body, and Tools of His Trade
Alpha's Metaphysical Mental Constitution:
All Neo-Sapiens and other semi-intelligent life on his planet are strongly influenced by the sheer magnitude of magical pressure that the planet produces. Each person, creature, and some forms of plant life also excrete is pressure subconsciously and some even have the ability to in therefore has several biological effects on each life-form that also vary depending on the type of life-form.
Neo-Sapiens (or off-worlder's who are capable of using some degree of magic) manifests this pressure in their bioelectric auras around their body. The more adept a person is magically, physically, and/or mentally, the more powerful the aura and therefore the more influence the person has over other sentient life-forms. This pressure influences primal instincts and physiological triggers within the bodies of each individual organism, more specially, the need to survive and reproduce. In essence, this means that because of the corruption dealt upon Alpha's world, the majority of the life-forms on the planet live in a drug-like haze that limits their mental capacities but also "unleashes" their broadest spectrum of emotions.
The values of Neo-Sapien society are set back to primal needs and wants for survival and reproduction. Naturally this means that physical, magical, and mental superiority are instinctively lusted for (as opposed to how money is valued) and highly encouraged by every nation. The term “lust” is meant both metaphorically and literally. These forms of power induce psychological dominance and/or submission over every living organism on this altered Earth. Each individual life form is influenced differently due to various factors such as spiritual willpower, environmental superiority, or magical prowess.
As for Alpha in particular, he has an extremely strong magical pressure and currently holds the strongest aura of the people and creatures on his world, although this was not the case for the majority of his life. After hunting and absorbing the bioelectrical energies of his strongest prey and over 20 notable Super Predator's like himself, Alpha currently has an aura that is almost capable of rivaling that of the Living Embodiment of his planet's source of magic. Only one other being is just as, if not more influential; his arch-nemisis, Omega Goreagon.
Alpha's aura naturally arouses a strong admiration and desire among the people of his world and those who visit it (via airborne infestation of nanites changing their biological make up over time), as he basically personifies the pinnacle of human and animal evolution. Even the most hostile people and animals are forced to acknowledge his physical, mental, and magical superiority. By simply existing in a given space, every living thing can sense his pressure and feel a certain level of sexual attraction, intense fear, relative happiness, or false sense of security depending on his current intent with the people around him. Alpha's charisma comes from this influence and further gains attributes connected to his abilities. His personality is therefore as magnetic as his powers.
It is a double edged sword that also effects him in any place where magic is an influential factor in that world. It is unknown how Alpha is effected by the properties of other worlds but as long as it contains even the slightest amount of magic, Alpha's mind and body is forced to adhere to that world's unwritten magical laws. His instincts respond to the change as well and therefore he may express uncharacteristic personality traits or overcharged versions of his true to character traits.
Neo-Sapien Physiology:
All entities of Alpha's World are Neo-Sapiens or have characteristics that exemplify a standard of genetic engineering at the hands of the Xeno-Sapien Alien Race. Through a combination of magic, nanotechnology, and gene-splicing research, nearly all forms of biological life have been mutated into unnatural abominations with only a former shell of their previous existence visible. Even those lucky enough to remain a single species still has an abnormal or exotic appearance to some degree.
Alpha is a Chimera class Neo-Sapien, the rarest and typically most powerful demographic of Neo-Sapiens currently known. He is an interesting combination of Human, Wolf, Tiger, Bull Shark, Kitsune, and Dragon and possesses an amount of characteristics associated with them.
He possesses superhumanly acute senses. He can see at far greater distances, with perfect clarity, than an ordinary human. He retains this same level of clarity even in near total darkness. His hearing is enhanced in a similar manner, allowing him to detect sounds ordinary humans can't and also to hear at much greater distances. He is able to recognize people and objects by scent, even if they are well hidden. He can track a target by scent, even if the scent has been greatly eroded by time and weather factors, with an extraordinary degree of success. He can also use his keen sense of smell to detect lies due to chemical changes within a person's scent. These senses stem from, at least partially, his constant cellular regeneration, as do his enhanced physical capabilities.
Alpha's rough, scaly skin is a merge between human flesh, shark scales, and dragon scales. This makes his skin very tough and highly durable. Although it isn't "actually" as formidable as true refined steel, Alpha's skin is a soft, malleable alloy in the likeness of steel that covers the surface of his body (even under his thick fur). Alpha's scales are still sensitive to touch (able to feel the sharpness of objects, the burn of heat, etc.) but to actually damage his skin would take an extremely hard metal with near supernatural sharpness or magically/scientifically attuned attacks that surpass physical standards for hardness.
His fur is waterproof thereby allowing him unhindered movement in the water. He possesses the stripes of a tiger and the mane of a wolf. His fur is also very soft like that of a fox. His fur use to be naturally all black and grey before his powers fully manifested. This particular event happens for every Neo-Sapien's upbringing. At the time they reach a certain age or level of magical power, a region of their body will illuminate to a specific color in relation to what their ability is or what is in their surroundings. Since red is the highest visible wavelength in the EM spectrum, Alpha manifested a permanent crimson red shade for his stripes and mane. Unique to Alpha however is that since his powers are electromagnetic in nature, he can change the color of his mane and stripes at will. Also his hair is very conductive and constantly holds a static charge as long as he is awake. Because of this, contact with his mane short circuits hair clippers and can't be cut by normal means unless Alpha cuts it himself or is unconscious.
Alpha's natural healing also affords him the virtual immunity to poisons and most drugs, except in massive doses. For example, it is extremely difficult for him to become intoxicated from alcohol. His highly efficient immune system, which is part of his accelerated healing factor, renders him immune against all known Earthly diseases and infections except those that are magically influenced. His digestive system is also a feat of legend. He is able to digest almost any organic substance for some level of nourishment. He is able to survive and adapt to radiation on levels that would otherwise kill, mutate, or damage normal humans due to the nanites and his regenerative abilities.
Alpha has gills that line up from the base of his collar bones to the middle of his neck. These organs allow Alpha to breathe under both saltwater and freshwater environments. They automatically open when submerged and close when on land. They are very sensitive and Alpha fiercely guards them with the flared collar of his armor and his electrically charged mane of hair. Even when his gills are closed they are still fairly sensitive.
Alpha's inner body-tissue (muscles, bones, blood vessels, and organs) is extremely dense/solid, allowing him to withstand harmful strains on his body such as crushing weights, impacts, pressures, and changes in temperature. He also has enhanced levels of strength and stamina allowing him to resist tearing a muscle and/or his bones from shattering easily. Alpha's skeleton is reinforced with a nanite composed carbon alloy so dense that it appears black as seen on his forearms and upper shins in the form of Dragon Spikes.
His natural strength is augmented by the demand placed on his musculature due to the presence of 187.8 pounds of biomass composed of nanites bonded to him at the cellular level, which also removes the natural limitations of the human body structure by allowing him to lift weights that would damage a normal human skeleton. Alpha has with sufficient strength to benchpress somewhere in excess of 800 lbs but not lift more than 2 tons without the aid of his powers.
After attaining a specific level of magical knowledge, Alpha gains an additional draconic spike similar to how Kitsune earn their tails. Alpha has a total of 8 spikes currently, two on each limb. This therefore classifies him as a level 8 Kitsune. These spikes can be used as weapons in their own right for puncturing or lacerating enemies in close combat and he has even learned to use them to trap weapons between them to disarm his opponents. Lastly, his spikes act as antennas to boost the range of his electrical communication devices.
Alpha's tail is very strong and significantly increases his swimming speed. Alpha has learned to use his tail as a weapon like that of a thresher shark to strike and stun his foes with great accuracy in the midst of combat.
Alpha's claws and teeth are very formidable. His claws are retractable and as metallic as his bones even though they aren't as dense plus sharp enough to easily hook or rip through flesh and non-reinforced bone. His teeth are somewhat metallic but also serrated and he boasts an extra row of them on both his upper and lower jaw.
Xenomorphic Nanites
The 6 great Xenanite Bomb explosions spread nanites into the atmosphere where they eventually multiplied then, over a short period of time, descended and bonded to the molecular structure of every living organism on the planet. The original function of these nanites was to promote supernatural evolution of humans using the physical aspects of animals for enhanced bodies and the mental evolution of the Xenosapiens for higher cognitive processes. However the result was altered to terraform the planet into a more hostile environment for all living things that choose to enter it unprepared. Everyone on this planet therefore has undergone a fundamental change in anatomy that can be inherently unique among individuals. Though the most common effect of these nanites include optimal physical performance, rapid mental processes, a healing factor, and overall increased connection to magic. The price of this enhancement however is the constant threat of losing a sensible state of mind and at the fact that animals and plants are even more affected by the change than the former humans. Once exposed to these nanites, there is almost no chance that one can revert back to whatever they once were inherently.
Among the general masses, 24 found and recorded Neo-Sapiens were considered "Super Predators" due to being the most evolved Neo-Sapiens in the world. These people were recorded to have greater control of their psyche, towering levels of magical influence, and superior biological attributes; these were either bestowed spontaneously by the nanite infection or eventually gained over a period of time through various means. These men and women were each represented by an Ancient Greek letter as a given codename and a royal title to serve as a code surname. Alpha is therefore one of these Super Predators.
Survival Instincts and Training:
Alpha is to his very core a Predator. Not only has he been trained to be an effective hunter, but he also taps into his 6 animal instincts to draw upon their varied strategies for hunting prey and the pursuit of his goals. After hunting for his own food since the age of 7, surviving 10 years of military based operations, and accounting for the successful pursuit and execution of 19 Super Predator Class citizens grants him the status of being a master of hunting and tracking. With his inborn instincts and multiple applications, he can discern numerous factors of a situation that allow him be successful in pursuit and capture.
Alpha is also has intuitive understanding in survival, allowing him to actively prepare for emergencies, including possible disruptions in social or political order, on scales from local to international. Such skills are inherently enforced from living on his hostile planet. He became a skilled cook, trap specialist, martial artist, weapon specialist, evasion expert, and basic medical skills.
Alpha is the kind of predator that stalks and then ambushes his prey. If the ambush isn't successful or is impossible, he takes the most direct approach. After instilling fear in his prey he “plays” with them until he gets what he wants out of them. Then he captures them or kills them if they are particularly hostile or pre-judged with a death sentence by a formal jury. Alpha finds enjoyment in competition. If he isn’t able to fight his prey then he gets disappointed. This however doesn’t hinder him from doing his job with enthusiasm.
Skilled Businessman
Alpha is not only a good hunter in the most obvious sense but also a very keen businessman. As vicious as he is in battle, he is also just as vigorous and aggressive in business deals. Alpha wins people over with his overbearing charisma and remaining faithful to his promises.
Alpha has three rules that he follows for bounty hunting and mercenary assignments:
Rule 1: Always honor a just contract, but never fully trust a client.
Rule 2: Never make concessions for age, species, or size. The case of gender is weighable.
Rule 3: Never kill for free, however, it does pay to advertise.
Skilled Dancer
Alpha is very energetic and enjoys keeping his body active and moving. Aside from feeling and acting on the flow of combat, Alpha is able to feel and act upon the flow of his favorite styles of music. Alpha can perform dance moves on a superhuman level due to his powers and physical coordination. He is also use this skill for combat in the most fashionable way. He prefers dancing to Electro Swing, Hip-Hop, Pop, and Techno House music. His skills at dancing however are limited to Swing dance, Break Dance, Party Dances, and Foxtrot due to his love for maintaining a fast pace.
Weak Points
Extremely High Metabolism:
Whenever Alpha has used his powers to a high degree, or experience any other such large energy-drain, he will also experience a sudden, acute sense of fatigue manifested as hunger. Alpha's electrolyte/blood-salt levels are higher-than-normal, highlighting that Alpha needs higher blood-salt levels to support the use of his powers. Also due to the fact that he is a combination of carnivores, he must maintain a heavy diet of meat to sate his body's needs. Insufficient diet can lead to irritability and unstable behavior that can quickly escalate to depravity. The maximum amount of time Alpha can go without a sufficient diet is 3 days before he becomes desperate enough to consider cannibalism (has happened before and hopes to never let it happen again).
Gills:
Alpha’s gills are retracted upon going on to dry land and remain hidden and defended under his high collared cuirass and his mane of thick electrically charged hair. Though even with them retracted, they are still fairly sensitive to touch. A firm strike to them can leave him momentarily stunned. Penetration of his gills with fingers or weapons can cause severe irritation. Also, these gills are also sensual weak points. A gentle brush over them is enough to easily arouse him or set him on edge to defend them fiercely.
Armor Removal:
While he is separate from his custom armor, many of his advantages will become more costly to use. Without the armor, his body won't regenerate as quickly if he gets injured, won't receive as potent of a boost from being hit by energy based attacks, and his energy attacks become less potent. His stealth-fullness also decreases to a normal level. His nanites will also be forced to work twice as hard to manage his stamina during combat or high stress situations.
Electrical Disruption:
The nanites within his body can't be traditionally hacked into because they have no function other than enhancing/ repairing my physical and magical attributes. He also haves no ports or connectors that allow others to plug into me unless it is to charge his armor. However, his management functions can be slowed down or paused by specific forms of electrical interference that isn't caused by electromagnetic forces. Specifically, this includes being frozen in very thick layers of ice, technomagic, and divine/demonic intervention.
Ghostly Possession:
Despite his strength, sheer force of will, and powers, incorporeal beings still pose the largest problem for him to fight, track, and sense. To show how dangerous ghostly possession is for him imagine this, every individual nanite composing your body suddenly gaining a consciousness of its own with the only provoked thought is to tear you apart as painfully as possible from the root of your hair to the nails of your toes. His only defense is generating a large amount of raw electricity from within himself then release it through every cell of his body, then expel it out with explosive force. Doing so drains me of various levels of energy depending on the strength and will of the apparition. Low strength ghosts take a quarter of my power, medium strength takes 3 quarters, and anything higher takes all of my power and leaves me entirely vulnerable even with my armor.

Not only has he been trained to be an effective hunter, but he also taps into his 6 animal instincts to draw upon their varied strategies for hunting prey and the pursuit of his goals. After hunting for his own food since the age of 7, surviving 10 years of military based operations, and accounting for the successful pursuit and execution of 19 Super Predator Class citizens grants him the status of being a master of hunting and tracking. With his inborn instincts and multiple applications, he can discern numerous factors of a situation that allow him be successful in pursuit and capture.
Alpha is also has intuitive understanding in survival, allowing him to actively prepare for emergencies, including possible disruptions in social or political order, on scales from local to international. Such skills are inherently enforced from living on his hostile planet. He became a skilled cook, trap specialist, martial artist, weapon specialist, evasion expert, and basic medical skills.
Alpha is the kind of predator that stalks and then ambushes his prey. If the ambush isn't successful or is impossible, he takes the most direct approach. After instilling fear in his prey he “plays” with them until he gets what he wants out of them. Then he captures them or kills them if they are particularly hostile or pre-judged with a death sentence by a formal jury. Alpha finds enjoyment in competition. If he isn’t able to fight his prey then he gets disappointed. This however doesn’t hinder him from doing his job with enthusiasm.
Skilled Businessman
Alpha is not only a good hunter in the most obvious sense but also a very keen businessman. As vicious as he is in battle, he is also just as vigorous and aggressive in business deals. Alpha wins people over with his overbearing charisma and remaining faithful to his promises.
Alpha has three rules that he follows for bounty hunting and mercenary assignments:
Rule 1: Always honor a just contract, but never fully trust a client.
Rule 2: Never make concessions for age, species, or size. The case of gender is weighable.
Rule 3: Never kill for free, however, it does pay to advertise.
Skilled Dancer
Alpha is very energetic and enjoys keeping his body active and moving. Aside from feeling and acting on the flow of combat, Alpha is able to feel and act upon the flow of his favorite styles of music. Alpha can perform dance moves on a superhuman level due to his powers and physical coordination. He is also use this skill for combat in the most fashionable way. He prefers dancing to Electro Swing, Hip-Hop, Pop, and Techno House music. His skills at dancing however are limited to Swing dance, Break Dance, Party Dances, and Foxtrot due to his love for maintaining a fast pace.
Weak Points
Extremely High Metabolism:
Whenever Alpha has used his powers to a high degree, or experience any other such large energy-drain, he will also experience a sudden, acute sense of fatigue manifested as hunger. Alpha's electrolyte/blood-salt levels are higher-than-normal, highlighting that Alpha needs higher blood-salt levels to support the use of his powers. Also due to the fact that he is a combination of carnivores, he must maintain a heavy diet of meat to sate his body's needs. Insufficient diet can lead to irritability and unstable behavior that can quickly escalate to depravity. The maximum amount of time Alpha can go without a sufficient diet is 3 days before he becomes desperate enough to consider cannibalism (has happened before and hopes to never let it happen again).
Gills:
Alpha’s gills are retracted upon going on to dry land and remain hidden and defended under his high collared cuirass and his mane of thick electrically charged hair. Though even with them retracted, they are still fairly sensitive to touch. A firm strike to them can leave him momentarily stunned. Penetration of his gills with fingers or weapons can cause severe irritation. Also, these gills are also sensual weak points. A gentle brush over them is enough to easily arouse him or set him on edge to defend them fiercely.
Armor Removal:
While he is separate from his custom armor, many of his advantages will become more costly to use. Without the armor, his body won't regenerate as quickly if he gets injured, won't receive as potent of a boost from being hit by energy based attacks, and his energy attacks become less potent. His stealth-fullness also decreases to a normal level. His nanites will also be forced to work twice as hard to manage his stamina during combat or high stress situations.
Electrical Disruption:
The nanites within his body can't be traditionally hacked into because they have no function other than enhancing/ repairing my physical and magical attributes. He also haves no ports or connectors that allow others to plug into me unless it is to charge his armor. However, his management functions can be slowed down or paused by specific forms of electrical interference that isn't caused by electromagnetic forces. Specifically, this includes being frozen in very thick layers of ice, technomagic, and divine/demonic intervention.
Ghostly Possession:
Despite his strength, sheer force of will, and powers, incorporeal beings still pose the largest problem for him to fight, track, and sense. To show how dangerous ghostly possession is for him imagine this, every individual nanite composing your body suddenly gaining a consciousness of its own with the only provoked thought is to tear you apart as painfully as possible from the root of your hair to the nails of your toes. His only defense is generating a large amount of raw electricity from within himself then release it through every cell of his body, then expel it out with explosive force. Doing so drains me of various levels of energy depending on the strength and will of the apparition. Low strength ghosts take a quarter of my power, medium strength takes 3 quarters, and anything higher takes all of my power and leaves me entirely vulnerable even with my armor.
