Occupation:
Bounty Hunter
Political Standpoint/Allegience:
Bounty Hunter Elite
Apperance:
Body:
Standing at 5'9", Kenji has a slim build, yet he is still muscular. He is one of those guys that doesn't show much emotion, and looks calm. He has several scars on his body from both mistakes in training, as well as several battles. He has the swirling snake tattoo that members of the Elite have on the right side of his neck. He has short and spiky black hair, with no facial hair. He has sharp green eyes, which seemingly strike fear in to some weak-willed people.
Clothing:
Kenji wears a black sleeveless top over a longsleeved mesh shirt. He wears a pair of baggy gray pants, which the ends are tied down with a white cloth. He generally goes around barefooted as well, and his feet are no longer affected by the heat of the hot desert sand, due to having walked on it constantly. One piece of clothing he is known for, is his straw hat, which he almost always wears. He wears a gray cloth bandana across his face, covering his face from his nose to below his chin. At his waist, he has several small skins that contain sand. (The skins carry around 1 liter each, there are 4 skins)
/Combat Structure\
[/u][/center]Bending:
Earth Bending, Sand Bending (Intermediate in both, yet is a natural for Sand)
Weapons:
His Bending, and a simple dagger
Combat Style:
Kenji combines two styles, he uses the standard Earth Bending style when it comes to standard bending, and his own custom made style, which combines styles that are similar to Tai Chi and styles similar to it in movement. When bending sand, Kenji tends to use custom made techniques, like his "Sand Pierce". The Sand Pierce is a somewhat simple technique, where Kenji manipulates the sand and forms it into a thin and compact blade of sand. (Pretty much he makes it so the sand is so bunched together, and forms a point in it that it can actually pierce skin.) Making several small "sand needles", Kenji strikes with them in arteries and pressure points, to hamper movement and such. At times, after creating an open wound, he will fill the wound with sand, weighing that specific body part down, and making it unusable. By attacking with strikes like that, Kenji fatigues his opponent and exhausts them to the point that killing them would be like stealing candy from a baby.
/Biography\
[/u][/center]Personality:
Kenji is a seemingly calm guy, but that doesn't stop people from fearing his reputation. Kenji would try to be kind, but seriously, who would want to be buddies and have a beer with a feared Bounty Hunter known as the Desert Demon? Because of this, it makes getting information quite a bit easier, a guy that could kill you with a simple motion would scare low lifes who know things sh!tless most of the time. Kenji likes to hang out around bars normally when he is in a city, since they generally are places where the most information can be gathered. When it comes to business, he will only go for the best deal, and doesn't let personal favor get in the way of that.
He tends to be vicious in a fight, letting the fight drag out just to inflict more pain onto an opponent, rather than killing them quickly. If an enemy is wanted alive, he will make it so they cannot move any limbs, in order to get them to the employer, without them being able to struggle.
History:
Kenji was born in the Si Wong Desert in a small village practically 'on' and Oasis. His father was a bounty hunter, who was not very well known, as well as a former bandit by the name of Kai, and his mother just a normal woman named Hitomi. When Kenji was born, his father was overjoyed that he had a son, not a daughter, and Kenji looked up to his father, wanting to be just like him.
As time passed, Kenji showed the ability to Earthbend at the age of 5, and his father began to teach him how to bend sand. Kenji seemed good at it, and was seldom picked on, since his father had a reputation in the town. While Kenji wasn't great at Earthbending itself at a young age, he was seemingly good for his age at Sand bending by the age of 8. He started to design his own technique, the Sand Pierce. Finally, Kenji got into his first fight when he was 9, because some kid thought his dad was some weak fool. Angry, Kenji stuck up for his fathers pride, and sent a needle made of sand flying torwards the boy when he wasn't looking, accidently hitting an artiery. The boy let out a scream of pain, and grabbed his bleeding arm, and Kenji's eyes widened, he was scared, not realizing that he would actually hurt the kid so much.
Kenji ran home, and while only a few minutes had passed, his father had already heard of the "fight". Proud that his son was able to dish out an attack like that at such a young age, Kai didn't even discipline him, nor did his mother. His father taught him how to do basic earthbending as well now, since sand bending wouldn't help him defend himself in every single fight, earthbending would help alot. Unlike when he first started, Kenji was better at it, and was able to use it better now.
As years passed, and his bending got better, Kenji started to come to the age where he needed to take care of himself. He left home at the age of 16, and traveled the desert, fighting of Sand Bending bandits while he tried to find something to make a career of, and then one day, a few weeks after his 18th birthday, it hit him as he saw a wanted poster. Kenji then hunted down outlaws, and brought them back to the client, dead or alive. As time passed, Kenji had made a reputation for himself, and became feared, as well as fearless, and became known as the Desert Demon.
By the time he was 25, he was invited to join the greatest group of bounty hunters known, the Bounty Hunters Elite, and he accepted the invitation. He continued to travel around the Earth Kingdom, as well as the Fire Nation, selling his skills and hunting down criminals.
