**DEAD03**#02 Raditzu
#1
------------------------------
Raditzu
Saiya-jin
------------------------------


Appearance

Start with a creamy XTREME base, toss in a pinch of awesome, add a dash of hair, and a handful of waffles and you've got yourself the recipe for Raditzu. As his preferred moniker implies, the long-haired wonder boasts a head of hair that will make him stand out in any crowd. His illustrious raven locks extend his height a couple of inches with tall spikes and then magestically cascades down to his knees. The super powered saiya-jin takes great pride in the care with which he treats his hair.

Quite sadly, the saiyan Adonis is much more harsh on his body. Years upon years of harsh training had once sculpted the saiya-jin into a mountain of prestine muslce. However, further years upon years of combat have left him scarred and battered.

Atop his vast shoulders, Raditzu usually bears the weight of a light muscle shirt and quicksilver armor fashioned to look like classic saiyan armor. Having taking pity upon others, Raditzu shields his mighty legs from onlookers with a pair of baggy sweatpants, for gazing upon such magnificence can be dangerous to the health of others.

Personality

If one was looking to avoid using the phrase "stereotypical male" to describe Rad, "stereotypical saaiyan" would work just as well. Though Raditzu prefers to think of himself as "appropriately confident" most other would use the moniker "arrogant asshole." Confidence aside, Raditzu tends to appear laid back and aloof, though decades upon decades of training keep the long-haired wonder alert whether he likes it or not.

One of Rad's trademarks is his tongue, which is as quick as it is silver and as sharp as it is light. Though to many it may seem like Rad is simply trying to provoke his opponents with jabs and jives, a trained eye can see the subtle mind games that can easily pierce veils of concentration. Though, in this case, the trained eye would be wrong. If there is one thing Rad likes more than a golden-brown waffle with a generous coating of rich maple syrup, its the sound of his own voice.

Possible Reactions

The combination of being overly relaxed and supremely confident have lead Rad to believe that underhandedness is uneeded when dealing with situations like Dante's Abyss. He is fully aware that others prefer to use deceptions and tricks to try to put themselves in adventageous positions, but Rad has confidence in both his physcal and mental facilities to overcome those sorts of ploys.

Though he would prefer to have to seriously fight a friend or ally, Rad won't hold-back when/if it comes to that.

Relationships

Android 18 - Rad's lover and, more importantly, love.

Bardock - The father of the long-haired wonder. Raditzu knows first-hand that Bardock is a seasoned warrior. In a competition like Dante's Abyss, Bardock is a serious threat in DA.

Bra - Rad doesn't quite know how to describe his relationship with the saiyan princess. He sees in her an innocence that a father would see in a daughter, but at the same time the fierce potential that one warrior sees in another. Though the two have traded blows more than once, Rad considers Bra, for lack of a better word, a close friend.

Gohan - At many different times and for many different reasons, Raditzu and Gohan have found themselves teaming up. Raditzu considers Gohan to be a capable warrior with good potential, but lacking the emotional stability that comes with age and experience.

Reijin - Rad would never deny Reijin's skill as a fighter, but considers him a child with no knowledge or experience to back up his arrogance. Having worked with Reijin before, Rad knows that Rei can be as powerful an ally as he is an opponent.

Fighting Style

Through years of drunken brawls and battlefield mayhem, Raditzu has refined his fighting to a kind of haphazard brawling. In general, Rad prefers to use his speed to overwhelm and breakdown his opponent's defenses. While this emphasis on leading the attack can be useful in many situations, it has had a long-term disadvantage of leaving Rad's defenses somewhat lackluster. The saiyan warrior relies on his snappy reflexes to avoid being hit.

Eligible Abilities

Raikinesis - Rad can use his ki to create and control electricity. Switching from ki blasts to lightning bolts is an easy way to throw off an opponent.

Venemous Ki - The antithesis of a Healing technique he saw on Lord Vine's, Raditzu can use his own ki to breakdown that of an opponent's. Though the effects aren't usually immediate, its useful for prolonged engagements.

Quotes
