Physical appearance ~ : Intimidating isn’t a word that comes to mind when one takes a first glance at Tony. Even at the age of 23, this athlete is a bit less than adequate in muscle tone and is a bit disheveled. This usually spontaneous ball player takes pride in his height, standing at 5”8. This guy also weighs in at 143 Lbs, minus his clothes, and has almost no muscle whatsoever, except for a four pack, which isn’t something to brag about. His face flows together quite well, though his cleft chin makes things a bit awkward looking.
This guy, even after hard years working in a field, still fails to get a tan, though his skin keeps some color. Unkempt, brown hair sits on top of Tony’s pretty head, curving off from the front to reveal his eyes and sort of defying gravity by shooting back a bit. Strands of loose hair often fall over his eyes, though they don’t really bother him. As for his eyes, they’re a normal green color.
A light fuzz is beginning to grow on his chin, since his shaved face makes him look too young. There’s a reason why Tony prefers not to wear a shirt and that’s due to his ceremonial tattoos. You have to follow the rules of other Worlds, though, so… The markings signify a very important aspect in the life of Tony’s race. The design starts as a black circle in between the breast area, an ancient phrase written around the edges.
From the cardinal directions, a single tendril tattoo spreads out in a straight line to each arm and leg and begins to circle the appendage once it meets the area where it connects to the body. Another circle circles the belly button area, this circle made of another message. One last circular symbol rests on the middle of Tony’s back.
Clothing/Accessories ~ : Clothing is quite simple for someone like Tony. He’s a baseball player, after all, so why not dress like one? Starting from the basics, this athlete covers his tattooed body in bandages while wearing clothes, since, according to his race’s customs, bad luck comes from having clothing and the sacred symbols touching. From this, the usual things like underwear and socks cover their respective areas. Following this, a white undershirt covers the torso and is tucked neatly into a pair of less-than-formfitting, dark denim jeans.
A tight, white jacket with red shoulders covers the rest of the torso, a red B stitched on the right breast area. Tony doesn't look for fashionable shoes, or anything for that matter, so he decides to wear shoes with a nice grip on the bottom. This is effective for running through sand and it's more convenient than wearing cleats.

As you're walking through the door, you see many sights that influence your mood. The different feelings that suddenly wash over you are many, leaving you with a strange mix of emotions.

Alignment ~ : Neutral
Behavior ~ : Tony is very sarcastic and was like this at birth. He would never be serious when a situation called for it, even in school. This got on the nerves of almost everyone who he met and this is why his parents decided to shape him up. This was one of the worst things they could've imagined. Even after the "treatment" they put this guy through, he never changed. This is his true nature and one of the reasons why he got the Knife he did.
After growing up, though, changes happened. When in his early teens, Tony was still sarcastic as ever, but he knew when to use it, which made first impressions much better for him. During this time, he also obtained a sense of duty, though this was small and didn't help much in the sarcasm category.
Now, to stray from this subject, Tony also has problems with people, if that wasn't already obvious. Conversations are very bland and are always ended with the usual sarcasm from Tony's side. Shop keepers never enjoy having him in on a regular basis, due to him usually staying in and window shopping, or taking up time that could be used with other customers.
Serious isn't a word in the "Tony dictionary". Even so, there's a nice little definition of it quoted straight from the man himself. "Serious is a state of mind that slows you down. You never get anything done when being serious!" This isn't to say that he doesn't go serious at times. When he does go into this state, Tony will talk in a dampered tone, continually straying from a conversation and talking to himself.
Now, onto his love life. When he does get a girl, Tony can't help but to act bashful. His cheeks turn embarrassingly red and he turns into a puppet. He also can't help but stare at a very nice looking woman. This is due to the restrictions his race has made on flirting and the like, which he left behind when he appeared in a new World. Still, if he's going against a cute lady in a fight, there won't be remorse.
Fighting is something Tony loves when the time calls for it. Nothing pumps you up like a good ol' fight, does it? This is exactly the reason why his Knife is in "The Fang" class. Even though his nature is led to more of a protective status, his inner being is a strong believer in war.

Suddenly, a Heartless appears in front of you, brandishing its claws and threatening to attack. You reach for your weapon and equip it, ready to defend yourself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Primary Weapon(s)
ID: Steel Fungo Bat
Quality: Average
The Fungo bat is a bat used mainly by coaches during practice. This particular bat is 36 inches long and weighs about 24 ounces, allowing heightened accuracy when hitting the ball. A Fungo bat is made for hitting balls tossed into the air instead of the normal pitched ball. Being made of steel packs a bit more punch when being hit, which is exactly what Tony was aiming for. This can also be used effectively as a one-handed club to bash people over the head.
Secondary Weapon(s)
ID: Knife of the Guardian
At first glance, this looks to be just a regular old knife, but in reality, it's something much more lethal. This knife is what every teenager obtains when getting their Guardian. This is very special and is seen in its sheath more than anything. When getting the Guardian, the teen will use a blank knife to cut their hands and their Guardian's paw/hand so that they can mix blood. This is commonly known as "The Blood Pact".
After doing so, the entire knife transforms, usually being different from another's Knife. For Tony, his Knife took the appearance of "The Fang" class. This depicts him as a member meant for war and destruction, which is very odd for one of the Lushrion race. The Knife is just as it sounds; a giant, sharp fang with a cloth-wrapped hilt. Strings of beads are also wrapped around the hilt, but they dissapear when Tony's Guardian appears alongside him for battle.

Energy Manipulation
[Description of ability]: Due to having a Guardian, any member of the Lushrion race that has one can manipulate small amounts of energy from around them to make an object. Due to restrictions, these objects cannot be used for offensive purposes, but since Tony isn't at home, rule breaking is a nice thing. Usually, since Tony loves baseball, he creates energy in the shape of a normal baseball and practices with it. Still, this ability can be used to create small knives, or any other object about a foot in length.
There's no specific element to this energy, but damage is slightly increased for blunt objects. Knives and other sharp objects used to impale others are less effective.
Strength: Weak [2 Ap]
Uses: Passive Ability
["Get Serious!"]
[Description of ability] This particular ability is nice, but is used sparingly as it's sort of spontaneous. When activated, the weight of the Fungo bat becomes lighter to Tony, allowing for a nice number of combos. A drawback to this is that, once used, there will be a point where he will freeze and leave himself open for attack. This is the spontaneous part, since there's never a specific time to when he freezes.
Strength: Weak [2 Ap]
Uses: Three times during a thread. 7 poost cooldown. Initial freezing time is withing 2-3 posts.
Homerunner
[Description of ability] This is what Tony's known for, baby! His homerun count in one season was higher than his rival's, which immediately brought him into the spotlight. Commemerating the continuous homeruns, this ability adds a nice little punch to the energy ball he chooses. This works ONLY for the energy baseball and nothing else. The distance that the choosen ball travels is up to a meter, though the farther it travels, the easier it is to dodge the attack. At point blank range, the ball could be near lethal to anyone's health, but why would Tony cheat like that?
Strength: Weak [2 Ap]
Uses: Twice during a battle. 5 round cooldown.

Summons
Name: Mr. Bones
Appearance: Mr. Bones is, like his name, made completely of bones. The initial shape of this summon is that of an oversized velociraptor, being five times larger than a normal velociraptor. No organs, or meat in general, are present on Mr. Bones, which makes him quite intimidating to anyone that has some sanity. The bones, unlike most fossils, are much darker than they normally would be, probably due to it being taller.
The sickle like claw on it's hands are much larger, due to its "evolution" and are now a much more dangerous weapon. For a direct measurment, the length of this claw is exactly thirteen inches. Did I say there was no flesh? My bad, I guess I didn't count its yellow-green eyes that hide inside of the respective sockets. It is highly rumored that the fang on Tony's Knife comes directly from Mr. Bones himself, though no sign of any missing teeth are present on the living fossil.
Also, as an added bonus, a series of spikes line the top portion of each segment of the coccyx(tail bone) until the final five segments.
Abilities:
AP: 0
[Insert Ability One name here]: Seismic Shockwave
[Description of ability] This ability is quite devastating as it is used to create a massive earthquake the sends giant chunks of the earth flying towards an opponent. This move is part of the Earthquake Set, related to Giga Quake from many of the other large Guardians out there. Chunks of earth are relatively large, the largest looking to measure to seven and a half feet in diameter. The farthest they can be thrown is up to fifteen feet.
Strength: Strong [6 Ap]
Uses: Twice in an entire thread. Seven round cooldown.
[Insert Ability Two name here]: Hunting Instinct
[Description of ability] Hunting Instinct allows for Mr. Bones to increase his attack and accuracy rate for each attack, though at a price. For this ability to work, defense must be given up, but he doesn't need it anyways. Hunting Instinct literally sends Mr. Bones into a rage, but a good one.
Strength: Moderate [4 Ap]
Uses: Three times per battle. Five round cooldown.
[Insert Ability Three name here]: Survival Instinct
[Description of Ability] This allows Mr. Bones to increase his defense, though he has to give up his attack in order to do so. This is usually used in tight spots and when Mr. Bones is about to go down for the count in one last hit. His speed is slightly increased, too. This all alows him to dodge effectively and be able to take a few more hits before the bell rings.
Strength: Moderate [4 Ap]
Uses: Once in a battle.
Elemental Resistance: Earth
Elemental Weakness: Water
