I'm trying to wrap my head around the whole dual gauntlet/sword but I'm not feeling the sword part of it. I also don't want to be a stick in the mud about this. >___>

Hmm I can go into the details in my combat abilities but he pretty much uses the Gauntlet as a defense against other swords as well as being able to grab a opponent for a close range fire attack ( well once he gets his main one )
Basically the Gauntlet he would start with would be a defense against short range weapons. And the Later one would amplify his Fire attacks but would severely limit the range of it to close range only
The Sword is pretty much his main weapon for his right hand o.o
Honestly I didn't want him to be a "Sword and Shield" type of person and I've always favored Gauntlets over shields XD
I was going to have the main gauntlet built onto him somehow but that sounds too cyborgy

Darkness Destrillian ahoy!
UPDATE! I'll lower the number!
Name: Marko ( Kramskov Reiner Faiz )
Code Name: Destrillian Prototype 000-000-013
Gender: Male
Age: Twenty Two
Personality:
Marko is described as competitive, impulsive and kind to those who treat him with respect. Even under harsh circumstances, he remains indominable within Viola, even with their attempts to hold him down and only shows affection towards his doctor, Cassandra Ackerman. His determination to see the outside world is also unsurpased by any other Destrillian due to his curiousity and desire to live a life of adventure. He cares greatly for every other Destrillian he comes across as well as anyone who shows care or empathy for him. He will not tolerate those who dominate over anyone or rob them of their dignity. His alturistic nature from his previous life, like every Faiz before him, is also dominant even as a Destrillian and will not back down to help anyone in dire need or in desperate need. Contrary to his powers and assumed nature, he is the most optimistic and most cheerful of all the Destrillians. He will not tolerate those who destroys one's happiness and often reprimands them or gives them a beating until they submit to him, as he cannot stand to see others in misery.
Physical Appearance:
Marko's deceptively lean and scrawny look bellie his impressive strength, speed and stamina. He is athletically built to perfection with the exception of the notable lean look, and his physical combat knowledge allows him to overcome challenges often suited for bulky and built men. Further amplified with his powers, Marko can easily move faster than an average human in combat due to his augmented reflexes and strength.
Marko's height is at 5'10" and appears smaller than his older brother. He has a stylized hair after his doctor's dead husband and treasures it as a result. He notably has dark tear-drop tattoos on his cheeks and a mischievous smile accompanying him whenever he attends training. He has a feminine look and is often admired for it by the female counterparts, while scorned by his male peers.
He is normally adorned with a black underwear as per his elemental code, equiped with the tattoo of number 13 at his right bicep and adorns a red scarf given to him by his doctor as a gift for the eve of passing his test to become one of Viola's revered weapons. He often wears a black undershirt and baggy pants when under training.
Elemental Power: Darkness
Physical/Elemental Abilities:
Marko's martial arts style is mixed with various forms and attacks that he has been considered one of the top combatants to rely on both physical prowess and magnificent use of his powers among his peers and has varied forms of fighting capabilities. He relies on dirty tactics as per his style and will not hesittate to cheat. He is often considered the most physically combatant enthusiast of all prototypes due to his warfreakish nature.
Marko's powers of darkness on the other hand, is not meant to be taken lightly and is often used by him to deadly effect. Marko's powers has a strange effect of rotting or decaying anything it touches as long as he commands it through his thoughts and is often maleable and can materialize against his fists, feet, blades or whichever weapon he can think of to dramatically damage his opponents to devastating effect. Upon skin contact with the dark matter that Marko emits can cause nightmarish frenzies or even terrifying thoughts that brings out the primal fear of every human until the point of comatose unless guarded by external covers such as suits, kevlar or even steel gloves. Exposure to bright lights or light filled places can make him practically useless as he cannot gather dark energy, be warned that if chanelled or used right, light based powers can turn his attacks into a more aggressive, deadlier form of attack.
Other than using his powers offensively, Marko has an otherworldy ability to use the shadows to sense and feel a presence within the fall of every shade of a structure and amplified when it is darkfall, where his powers are at its maximum potential. Curiously, he has the ability to change/shift/teleport from his location from any place he desires within a proximity of the location he can see as long as the shadows are enough to cover his size, smaller shades like those of a lamp or a small nook are not possible for him to phase out of, however, some place as a dark as a corridor can allow him to appear unto, creating a frightening element of surprise to victims. This ability is not to be used constantly, as unlike certain prototypes, his power does not have a passive that dulls or stalls the migrane side effect. To that end, Marko relies solely on his offensive abilities and utilizes his defensive shadow flash ability when only he is in danger.
Marko's hidden passive and innate ability is that the darker his surroundings are around him or if it is nightfall, the more effective his nightmarish dark matter can instill on the victim or the faster the decaying effect can inflict. During the sunlight, or daytime, the effect is not as devastating and can even be considered weaker than when at night. Steps are taken to train Marko to master his control of darkness in both conditions because if untrained, it can cause severe trauma if used sparringly to the point that the victim can be comatose if not careful. His powers at night also doubles, allowing him to use the defensive mechanisms of his powers to greater effect without the passive effect of stalling or delaying the migrane effect, promoting a more strategic use of Distrum for this particular Destrillian.
Background:
He awoke one day in white room at the age of 5 with nothing before that could be recalled. All he was greeted with was by the first person, a blonde scientist with a red scarf by the name of Dr. Cassandra Ackerman. She told him he was asleep for most of his life and that Viola was caring for him all this time. Being a child lost from the unknown, he accepted her offer as he first manifested his darkness powers by accident. With a smile, Dr. Ackerman wished him a happy birthday at that moment, and their parent-child relationship grew from then on. He was named Marko as time went forward, having long forgotten what he was.
As he learned more from the basic education, training and steady upbringing of Viola, he longed to see what was outside these steeled walls. Other than a certain few, he was the only one who questioned his place. Dr. Ackerman, arguably attached to the Destrillian, agreed to teach him further than what Viola protocol allowed for the price of obedience. Marko's naievety and cheery nature, melted Dr. Ackerman's heart as time went by during their learning and development cycle that she no longer had it in her heart to be as firm with him. Their bond as a mother-child relationship was further elevated by cutting his hair to match that of her lost husband.
Eventually at age 10, to better strengthen his promising development, Dr. Ackerman told him of a story about a man, who dreamed of becoming Lisinium's hero that he dressed in a knight's suit and fought for what was right, with many stories that even Marko could not count. Eventually, his favorite was helping a red princess from turning into a devil for the king she hated, when questioned by the good doctor Marko responded that he loves happy endings as all those stories she told him, all ended in the knight's favor, but every story save the red princess' was bittersweet. Dr. Ackerman consoled Marko after each story, but the particular one where he saves the red princess was his favorite. When asked what the knight's name was after so long, she told him that his name was Ragnus, a hero of a thousand tales and the name of the Ragnum suits that he has been studying for sometime. Marko ultimately reveals his desire to be a hero unlike that of Ragnus or the suits he had been studying, signifying Marko's potential and output as a soldier and Destrillian shone further, through Ackerman's upbringing. With her humane values and gentle rearing, he was bred to become one of Viola's best weapons.
Come age 22 and as the world slowly became more understandable to him and his mastery over darkness near completion, Dr. Ackerman finally visited the young man. After this year, they would part ways, and he would finally see the world for what it really was other than the stories of Ragnus she used to tell him during his childhood. Marko finally understood that even with such childish stories, he was firm that the world of Linisium was going to be fantastic even when he had to shed blood for the name of Viola. Dr. Ackerman's final test was wondering who was Marko loyal to, in which he answered that his loyalty was never to Viola but to her, his Destrillian brethren and all the good people of Linisium. Tears flooded the woman, her realization that the broken child had become a steadfast man that she can easily call her son. Giving him her signature red scarf, she tells him that she may not be here soon, to which Marko begged that he wished to see her during his inaguration. She merely smiled and left the confused young man, confident that he was ready and that her nurture has given him the strength he needed. 2 day later, Marko finds that Dr. Ackerman has disappeared during an incident related to an outside affair. A saddened Marko could only ponder where his path may lead from here on and if the doctor's teaching, Viola's conditioning and their time together will be of help to him in the long run. He would continue to sleep and eventually, sought a way to free himself and find her.
That night, he felt a rush of an unknown subconscious within him as his pod fail to give him the usual dreamless sleep. In it was a nightmare like he never had that was a blood soaked world, filled with misery, gunfire, large machines and a desperate voice calling out to his name. Marko finds a young boy with pained eyes reaching out to him, calling himself Ralph and begging him to come over to him. As his hands reached out, he was blinded. Marko awoken violently amidst the nightmare that shook his long lost past. He violently destroyed his pod and unleashed his powers to break lose of it. He could only remember the name Ralph that greatly brought him to tears as well as the name 'Kram'. With the noticable Code red, a signal that the facility was endangered, Marko had decided to take the first step the good doctor knew he may take and find a way out of Viola's facility to find this mysterious boy named Ralph as well as his only parent figure.

Apologies for double post! To all comrades in the thread with bios up, kindly PM me your character's references for me to illustrate to add diversity. I will render them for the next 4 days while at work. Be sure to have them PM'd to me by today!
Yu Narukami
Ideally, I would cut all of that.
The projects may or may not be trained with weapons and their combat experience varies, but they're not meant to depend on weapons or objects. I'll swing for the fire enhancing gauntlet, but I really want to nix the plain gauntlet and the sword. Can you get on board with that?

Can you get on board with that?Gentlemen and ladies, I propose if I draw your characters in Before Crisis style portraits and while Me Gustith/Channy do the clean up and coloring for your sigs or avatars? How about it yo? Kinda like this:
![URL]](http://[URL]http://thelifestream.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/th_Reeve.jpg[/URL])
It would be interesting seeing our characters drawn like that. I probably won't use them in my sig or ava though, I'm happy with what I got right now so. 
I probably won't use them in my sig or ava though, I'm happy with what I got right now so. Nah! not to replace your sig! to add it! you can spoiler tag it! it also shall be for the bio portraits of your characters!

Ps - channnnyy once I have everyone for reference I will try to finish them in two days before rendering Viola cryotubes and mooks ok?

Avi pics like those would be lovely... cant wait to see em
Yu I hate to see you go but there are other priorities.. Thw beauty of this RP is that if you do come back after things are sorted we'll have a place for you. We'll keep your chatacter on the backburner for now and have him show up at a random time/place during the escape should you return.

I'll just wait for the information to be released. No point putting extra work when it's just a simple fix later, correct?
Righto. Not a problem.
