The suit has a blue cap attached that falls down Herc's back as far as the beginning of his legs. His footwear of choice(Besides Air-Herc sandals) when fighting monsters are a pair of high-reaching sandals that strap firmly around his lower legs to stay on.

Alignment ~ : Hero
Behavior ~ : Trained to be a hero but finding the answer to that quest on his own, Hercules lives and breaths to be the embodiment of heroism and the virtues of honesty, loyalty and purity. Its not an easy job and even he can't be perfect 100% of the time, but with great friends like Phil and Meg to help him the demigod has confidence in himself and in the importance of what he does. Originally hoping to become a true hero so that his divinity, mostly stolen at birth, would return, Hercules decided to remain a mortal after achieving his goal so that he could live and die with his love, Megara, who had suffered hurt and loneliness in her life just as he had. His love for her has been the biggest part of the hero's life since that day. To make sure that the world they live in stays safe Hercules loves seeing the next generation of heroes be inspired by his example and start learning how to carry on the task of defeating evil in the future.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Primary Weapon(s)
ID: Himself
Quality: Average
With the power of a god stored inside his mortal muscles and bones, Hercule's greatest weapon his his own body. Whether punching, kicking, holding, squeezing, throwing, or even just using it to fight with an actual weapon, Herc's naturally powerful body is always the most formidable thing about him that an enemy must overcome.
Secondary Weapon(s)
ID: Herc's Sword
A standard gladiator sword with a meter and a half-long metal blade, a compact bronze guard and a steady handle. Fine quality work, the blade won't break easily even under the use of Hercules' strength.
ID: Herc's Shield
A special shield used by Hercules, forged by Hephaestus as a gift but without any supernatural powers. It is a golden yellow in colour and bears the emblem of Olympus, a cloud and thunderbolt, upon its face. The shield is small, not even large enough to cover Herc's entire chest if placed over it(Of course he has a rather large one), but can be either held in the hand or strapped to his forearm.
ID: Herc's Bow
A wooden bow and arrow set Hercules trained with for many years under Phil. There's nothing overtly special about the weapon itself(He can afford the highest grade of workmanship though), but when Herc releases an arrow its a lot more powerful than that of the average mortal man's.

God-Like Strength
All of Hercules' natural-born divinity was stolen by a potion, except for his god-like power. The man's muscles, bones, organs and everything else he is made of are all capable of both exerting and withstanding epic amounts of pressure and force. Taught strictly in how to control and maximize the use of this amazing strength, Hercules can utilize it to defeat gargantuan beasts and mighty monsters with ease. He can easily throw himself about with his own strength as well as jump amazing heights or run faster than the fastest animals once he gets some steam going. Hercules can break canyon walls into broken avalanches with a single blow, tear apart super-hardened cooled lava as if it were mud, throw the Rock Titan into the stratosphere after some winding up, and even bear the weight of an entire world upon his shoulders.
Strength: Strong
Uses: Passive

Yet More God-Like Strength
All of Hercules' natural-born divinity was stolen by a potion, except for his god-like power. The man's muscles, bones, organs and everything else he is made of are all capable of both exerting and withstanding epic amounts of pressure and force.

Hercules can break canyon walls into broken avalanches with a single blow, tear apart super-hardened cooled lava as if it were mud, throw the Rock Titan into the stratosphere after some winding up, and even bear the weight of an entire world upon his shoulders. So great is Hercules' strength that a single focused physical attack can shatter enemy defences, even blocking or reflecting abilities if they are of a lower level than Strong(Strong blocking abilities will shudder and allow light damage through, reflecting Strong abilities will simply negate his blow), unless they have a similar amount of accumulated power behind them. His ability to exert force without taking harm in return, such as breaking his own bones with powerful punches, matching blows with powerful opponents, or suffering return damage from head butts is also taken to an extremely high degree in order for his body to compensate for its own power.
Strength: Strong
Uses: Passive
Immortal Constitution
Hercules has the body of a Greek god... literally! To call the man thick-skinned would be an understatement. Where it takes only a pound of pressure to break human skin, an average blade won't cut through this hero's flesh without at least fifty pounds behind it, less for sharper-than average edges and points. Even after piercing him, though, the demigod's inner muscles will push extremely tightly against the sides of the intruder to keep it from going too far too easily and his bones can resist cutting and piercing up to twenty times as much as his softer flesh, and he can lose much more blood than a mortal man before it starts to affect his physical and mental performance. The demigod's body will resist other maladies such as bruising or burning to a similar degree. With his strong constitution Hercules can also handle drastic highs and lows of temperature without as much tiring or numbing effect as they would have on an ordinary man, though eventually he too will being to slowly dehydrate or freeze once the limits of a normal man have been far passed behind. Luckily Hercules has more vitality than that of a mortal man as well, and can or train fight for days on end before he will eventually succumb to tiring out(Though without any food or sleep he could last up to two or three days at most). When Hercules can take time to rest his body's recovery will take only a fraction of the time it takes an ordinary hero's. Because of this strength of body, natural "negative status effects" such as poison last only half as long on Hercules, or are only half as effective if they bear no time limit.
Strength: Strong
Uses: Passive
Heroic Heart
Though he gave up his immortality and godhood, Hercules was still left with an increased boon of divine power after he became a true hero. Now bearing more than just the strength of a god, his very spirit has been tempered as well. A naturally high resistance to magic and other supernatural forces now protects the hero in his deeds, allowing him to bear the brunt of such attacks with a fairly higher efficiency than he could before when only strength and sturdiness was his merit. Now Hercules' body's and spirit's resistance to non-physical attack is similar to that of his Immortal Constitution's guard against the physical. Because of this spiritual resistance, unnatural "negative status effects" such as curses last only half as long on Hercules, or are only half as effective if they bear no time limit.
Strength: Strong
Uses: Passive
Divine Aura
The golden light that sometimes surrounds Hercules' body is no mere mortal magic but rather the power of the gods themselves. A fraction of it has returned to his mortal self after becoming a true hero. All of the demigod's offensive and defensive abilities with "Aura" in their name are strengthened by this ability and would overpower opposing abilities of an equal strength level while matching those one level higher unless they too have an equal boosting effect upon them. The damage that attacking Aura abilities deal is also enhanced to double by this power and any defensive shield "Aura" ability can resist guard-breaking character/weapon abilities(But not Equip or Keyblade guard-breaking abilities).
Strength: Strong
Uses: Passive
Aura Guard
Occasionally during battle Hercules will be surrounded by a powerful golden light. At this time his raw physical and magical defence are increased by 50% each, as if he were wearing full-body protective gear. This power is not consciously controlled by Hercules himself and can appear at any time he may need it even if the hero doesn't realize harm is coming his way. If there are others who need to be protected Hercules can also force this aura outward into bubbles of transparent golden light up to 10 meters in diameter that his allies can move in and out of for safety. No enemies or hostile forces will penetrate the field of light, even with guard-breaking powers. If the demigod should choose to manifest this protection for others, however, Hercules himself must remain stationary to maintain it and will only be touching the outside of the sphere rather than being inside of it. He himself has a golden aura while doing so that also protects himself completely, but unlike the bubbles his guard can be broken by such abilities of an appropriate level. This means that to attack anyone else safely within the Aura Guard it is Hercules himself that must be attacked by the barrier-breaker and not his protected allies. Hercules can activate this total defence aura for himself without projecting a bubble as well, but he must still remain almost entirely motionless to maintain it.
Strength: Strong
Uses: The defence booster for Hercules and the damage-blocking shield both share the same usage limit, meaning when one can not be used neither can the other. The former can last up to two turns in a row and the latter just a single turn. There is a required waiting time afterward of triple the number implemented before either form of the ability can be used after that.
Aura Force
Hercules can focus his Divine Aura into an offensive power, capable of dealing non-elemental magic-type damage of a high degree whenever pure physical power may not be the way to go.
Aura Wave: A shock-wave generated by Hercules pounding any surface, the Aura Wave flares up like golden flames reaching as much as three meters high before expanding outward as far as six meters in all directions at a higher than average running speed. The shock waves will deal damage and blow any hostiles away with force equal to the force Hercules put into hitting the surface(Which is often at least like getting hit by a speeding transport truck), but the surface itself will not be harmed.
Aura Blow: Hercules focuses his entire aura onto just one part of his body, causing it to look like it is encased in a solid yellow metallic coating from the intensity of the energy. A physical attack performed with this power has the ability to break shielding or reflecting special defenses of a level equal to this ability's.
Aura Blast: Hercules' most outright powerful Aura attack, the demigod ceases any fast movements and glows an intense yellow as if he were entering his invincible state, but instead moments later he will release a ten meter diameter yellow blast all around himself, encompassing a spherical area with countless beams of raw divine energy that deal sever damage.
Strength: Strong
Uses: Wave - Min. 3 turns between uses; Blow - Min. 4 turns between uses; Blast - Min. 5 turns between uses.
Glorious Divine Aura
The golden light that sometimes surrounds Hercules' body is no mere mortal magic but rather the power of the gods themselves. A fraction of it has returned to his mortal self after becoming a true hero. All of the demigod's offensive and defensive abilities with "Aura" in their name are strengthened by this ability and would overpower opposing abilities of an equal strength level while matching those one level higher unless they too have an equal boosting effect upon them. When this is combined with the Divine Aura ability the damage that attacking Aura abilities deal is also enhanced to triple their usual power and gain the ability to break weapon/character ability shields. If it is already a barrier-breaking ability it will now have the power to smash Equip shields as well(But not Keyblade shields). Any defensive shield "Aura" ability can resist guard-breaking character/weapon abilities and Equips(But not Keyblade guard-breaking abilities).

SummonsName: Pegasus
Appearance: A white horse with a blue mane and tail... oh, and two large wings.
Abilities
AP: 0
Living Cloud
With his large wingspan Pegasus can easily fly like a bird despite his body's size and weight. He can even do so while carrying passengers on his back or other heavy loads. Pegasus' flight speed can certainly exceed 250 kilometers per hour in straight travel, though it may slow down a little if he is made to bear much along the way. The horse's great power of flight lies in its acceleration and deceleration, which can seem to jump up or down many km/h in an instant. Pegasus' agility in the air is also enhanced to an extreme degree, making it possible for the blue-haired stallion to turn and twist on a dime or pull off stunts at breakneck speeds without becoming disoriented. That is not to say how well its rider might fare from such actions, of course.
Strength: Strong
Uses: Passive
Aerial Ace
Slipstream: A slipstream of swirling wind can seem to surround the steed when it breaks off into its higher speed limits, which acts as a protective field of to block or at least dampen harmful hazards that Pegasus might have to fly through or help to deter small projectiles away from its body. If the horse comes to a sudden stop after building up such a slipstream then the wind force can also be sent on forward as a very powerful gust, weakening to moderate strength after traveling five meters and dying out entirely after ten. A sudden landing with the slipstream can have a similar effect, but by sending out a spiral gust in an area five meters around the landing point.
Ace Guard:By performing a sudden spin in place Pegasus can also generate a swirl of air pressure around itself that acts like a guard of sorts. If anything isn't too weighty or powerful(Strong) to be affected by the gale-like winds the current can push it off and away from the winged horse before it can reach him.
Aerial Beat:For a moderate-level gust Pegasus can simply flap both of his wings at once in a full push to generate a forceful burst,
Strength: Strong
Uses: Slipstream - The wind covering and its releases require Pegasus to build up steady speed in the air for at least one turn before they can be used. Ace Guard - The swirl effect only lasts for the first motion if Pegasus keeps spinning, so it can not be constantly maintained. No more than once every second turn. Aerial Beat - Pegasus can only perform a gust attack-creating flap once per turn.
Mythic Horse
Pegaus' hooves deal stronger-than-normal physical damage when used to trample or attack an enemy, even though a horse's body strength would already do quite a lot to something human-sized. The sheer power of the unnatural creature is enhanced by this ability.
Strength: Moderate
Uses: Passive
Divine Wings
Pegaus' wings are powerful and can act as shields against even magic or push things around without becoming easily injured beyond use for flight. Using the wings as shields still receives some damage directly to Pegasus though, since they are a part of him, but they are toughened up like armour.
Strength: Moderate
Uses: Passive
Elemental Resistance: N/A
Elemental Weakness: Physical
History: This unique creature was created from a cloud by Hercules' father Zeus on the occasion of his son's birth. Though separated after Herc was turned into a mortal the two were reunited years later when the demigod began his quest to become a hero. The winged white horse Pegasus has been his most faithful and trustworthy partner ever since.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hercules was born to Zeus and Hera, the King and Queen of the gods of Olympus. After his birth he was kidnapped from his home and fed a potion that would turn him into a mortal, thanks to the schemes of Hades. The god of the dead had been forewarned that if Hercules lived and fought for Olympus in the future his plans to overthrow its authority for his own would fail. Luckily, Hercules did not drink the very last drop of the potion and still retained his god-like strength, allowing him to thwart his assassins even as an infant. He was found and taken in by two human parents, by whom he was raised into his teen years and always existed as an outcast from other people because of his massive, uncontrollable might.
Eventually he was given the amulet he had when he was found by his human parents, which bore the insignia of the gods. The boy traveled to the temple of Zeus where his heritage was revealed to him, as well as the means to return to it: restore his lost godhood by becoming a true hero. With the aid of veteran hero trainer Philocetes, Hercules grew into a powerful man and became famous world-round for his heroic deeds. Despite his fame and success, however, true heroism did not come until he was willing to sacrifice his own life to save the life of the woman he loved from the Underworld after he had ruined Hades' conquest of Olympus Though his immortality was restored to him the reborn god willingly gave it back up immediately to be with Megara, his mortal love who also understood the pain of an outcast loner.
Hades has not given up on defeating Hercules before his own mortality runs him out eventually, but the champion of the Olympus Coliseum never lost to any of the fiendish god's schemes. He helped the young fledgling Sora learn what it means to be a true hero of the Keyblade, and had his own lesson re-taught to him by that boy when he tried to take too much onto his plate. After the coliseum was destroyed by a rampaging Hydra Hercules has since rebuilt it, better than ever, and still intends to be an undefeated champion for everyone on his world to find hope in.
