Name: Aesford Gerstmann
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Sex: Male
Appearance: Aesford measures in at 1.91 meters in height and weighs a solid 88.5 kilograms. He boasts a powerful frame distributed generously through his body, his muscular ripples present even through his clothing, especially around the normally naked biceps/triceps areas of both his arms. His skin is a deep caramel, visually untainted except for the the various tattoos that are illustrated across his upper arms and shoulders. His piercing brown eyes and diagonal eyebrows cause him to look perpetually focused, even at times of rest. His thick hair is styled as long dreadlocks that fall to the level of his breasts and whip around during times of haste. His dreadlocks, coupled with his full but not heavy facial hair, seem to give his face a mask.
Seahawk Paladin Form: A bright teal aura surrounds Aesford, radiating up from the ground and attracting nearby matter ala DBZ. A set of transparent hawk wings in the same teal color extend from his shoulder blades. His muscles and veins visible pulse and ripple. Whenever he throws a strike in this form, the aura surrounds the striking appendage, (fist, foot, sword, etc.) and takes on the shape of a Seahawk's talon.
Background: Aesford grew up surrounded by gang violence, narcotics, and poverty. Many of his memories of youth consist of him trying to find ways to circumvent the woes that plagued his community. As a teenager, Aesford pined for a way out of this urban Hell, an exit that didn't end in a prison or a cemetery. He committed himself to the football field and the classroom, excelling at both. Aesford developed a drive to be the best at whatever he was doing, whether it was a sports game, an exam, a dance exhibition, or a music recital. His efforts paid off with his acceptance to the Fortstan University, one of the most prestigious in the nation. Overcoming the connotations associated with his upbringing, Aesford graduated at the top of his class and went on his way to join the National Football League. Many crushing defeats and joyous victories later, the League suspended its practices; it turned out that the game was not profitable when all the nation's attention and energy was turned towards the threat of multiuniversal annihilation. Aesford decided that he had committed too much to give up now even in the face of insurmountable odds, and joined the fight to stop the menace and return life to the way it was.
Personality: Aesford's charitable and intelligent nature is often masked in his theatrics which leave him coming off as loud, brash, ambitious and arrogant, (all of which he insists are part of the 'Game'.) Aesford is very driven towards excellence in anything that he competes in. A combination of loquaciousness and perpetual high energy makes Aesford a man of many, many words, sometimes appreciated and sometimes not. His speaking pattern is born out of an unusual mix of inner-city vernacular and academic speech, something that is openly unashamed of. He believes that respect is of the highest importance and will be very swift in reciprocating what he sees as disrespect. Despite this, he is incredibly loyal to anyone who he considers to be on his "Team" or "Side", and will not tolerate disrespect towards them as he does to himself.
Aesford's hobbies include playing football, plotting strategies, watching film, practice with his instruments, reading a good book, enjoying time with animals, eating copious amounts of food, humiliating weak scrubs that shouldn't even out here, and dancing.
There are certain terms or phrases that irrationally cause Aesford or any of his football comrades to become emotional.

Equipment:
[Weapons]
The 12th Man
Attributes: Armor-Piercing (Ignores 1 RES per Level), Sonic (The blade can not be broken), Seahawk Imbued (Can only be wielded by one deemed worthy by the mythical Seahawk.)
Base Damage: [TBD]
Description: A sleek modern greatsword with an emerald rune embedded in the handle; a hawk has been etched into the rune. The blade appears to flicker between teal and green colors; this is because there is no actual blade, just a contained amount of sonic energy being produced and contained by the emerald rune that gives off the illusion of being a blade. Due to this, the dimensions of the blade are flexible and often vary on the situation. When the "blade" makes contact with a solid object or person, all of the stored sonic energy is released onto the target while the "blade" restores itself afterwards almost immediately.
[Armor]
#25 Helmet
Attributes: Moderate Armor, Scanning (Can scan target object or person(s) for additional information at GM's discretion), Facemask (Additional +1 RES to the facial area per Level), Concussion-Proof
Base Defense: [TBD]
Description: A teal-and-green modern helmet designed to prevent head trauma to its wearer. Recent updates leave it able to sustain attacks from weapons and it is now nigh-impossible to get concussed wearing it. It also has a built in scanner that creates a user-friendly HUD right in front of its wearer's eyes.
#25 Uniform
Attributes: Moderate Armor, Advanced Artificial Exoskeleton (+25% Strength & Resistance), Powered-Shoulderpads (+33% Strength while Tackling), Body Regulator (The first hit that should reduce it's wearer to 0 HP instead reduces them to 1, makes the wearer resistant to
Base Defense: [TBD]
Description: This deceiving simple-looking uniform actually contains an exoskeleton beneath the surface which is designed to provide the maximum protection to its wearer without slowing them down. The uniform's shoulderpads are electromagnetically charged and release a blast of kinetic energy during a tackle. Additionally, there is a Body Regulator which allows its user to keep track of their body systems and while it can't do medical work of its own, it can keep an injured user on their feet long enough for backup to arrive.
[Baubles]
UltraDEX(TM) Gloves
Attributes: +20% DEX
Description: When a player catches a deep football pass behind their back while doing a front-flip, do you think it was 100% talent? With these sleek and sexy black gloves filled with the finest neurosensors in the world, even a regular person like you can be a football star! (Results not guaranteed.)
Hyper-Cleats(TM):
Attributes: +4 Initiative, Sharp (Causes Bleeding, 1d5 damage for 2 Turns, when an attack is successful that uses the heel of the shoe, probably either a Stomp or a Back-Kick.)

MouthMesh(TM)
Attributes: +1 SYN, Advanced Filtration (Wearer is immune to toxic molecules)
Description: This synthetic material allows its wearer to survive in a room filled with air-borne poison gas or pathogens. The downside is that you have to mouth-breath in those enviornments, which will have your teammates making fun of you for days after.
