Spectre Blade (幽霊の刃)

The fourth hero of Paradox Force. Took me quite a while to figure it out for a name not too corny or over the top.

 

Profile

Hero's name: Spectre Blade

Name: Noriko Hayashi ( ノーリコ ハヤシ)

Age: 21

Bio: Born in Nagoya, Aichi, Noriko was born to the privileged and strict Hayashi family. They were constantly at war with the Yakuza, and Noriko's family wanted her to aid/help them in their fight. Noriko refused because she would much rather patrol and see the world. At 4, her uncle secretly brought her to Columbus, Ohio, where he would raise her alone in order to prevent her being involved while still keeping in minimal contact with the family. Her uncle then started training her in martial arts skills and etc when she was 7.

 

Noriko had a great life from primary school to graduation at Kenyon College. At 19, her life was turned again when she was called back to Japan. Her family was disgusted to see her, calling her and her uncle a disgrace to the family. Telling Noriko the only way to gain their trust back was to continue on helping them fight the Yakuza, she refused, knowing that she never really had a good relationship with the family and half of them were corrupt, preferring to be on her own and help the others. Soon she and her uncle parted ways to go in to hiding after leaving the family, before telling her of her secret powers and gave her two indestructible sais, and a suit of armour. Noriko would travel around the world to see more, until she learnt that she wasn't the only one with powers, especially with a lot of them in Los Angeles....

 

Powers and abilities: Super-speed, super agility , able to go through walls, immunity to most diseases, poisons and viruses, 40% invincible to physical/energy based attacks, X-ray vision, sense things around her, expert in combat and marital arts, knows about guns but still prefers melee. Knowledgeable in melee weapons, utilizes ninjutsu, karate, MMA fighting, street fighting, black belt in judo and other forms etc. Fluent in her native tongue in Japanese and English.

Equipment: Carries melee weapons at her back, a black bandana that covers her nose and mouth (breathable and gases/shocks someone in case they want to take away her mask and find out her identity) a metal suit torso, black Kevlar, bulletproof pants, enhanced agility boots, two black indestructible daggers, sometimes various melee weapons like katanas, daggers etc.

Comment what you think about her.

 

(EDIT: Might consider changing Grey Cop's face when going back to Canada, you guys will see which face is perfect for him soon, and also needing help in making the next heroes.)
