[edit] Affiliations
Alastor Kuro - FUCKING HEADBUTT THAT SHIT. This man is the one person on the planet Kenny doesn't hate entirely.
Advent Assassin - His Brother who gives him shit every chance he gets for failing at being a real ninja.
Shadowed Dancer - His sister who could probably be a lot better at fighting if she didn't spend so much time with boys. She's probably dead.
Quic Silver - His half brother who he never really got to know but believes he's a badass.
Pyroworks - Brad and a proprietor with Kenny of the Ragtag Rogues merc group. Sometimes he can act like a pussy, other times he's bad effin' ass. They don't get along very well, what with not having much in common, but they always have each others back.
Vertebreaker - Laz and a proprietor with Kenny and Brad of the Rogues. He can act like a real asshole even though Kenny knows deep down he really cares for his friends. Usually when the two work together it can be assured many colorful words and threats will be said. Kenny also enjoys riding around on Laz's shoulders when he's in rock form.
Aaryn and Acelyn - Kenny hates these bitches like none other. They both mock his mastery of hate and one day he'll stomp his feet up each of their asses and wear them as sandals. But he does like working with them sometimes.
Graffiti Samurai - Kenny's arch rival. They often have intense man-offs. He almost respects him, but would never pass up a chance to stick a sword through his face and do a flying dutchman.
Lucy Xiao - This bitch is crazy and is a model of everything that's wrong with the world. Kenny is trying to fix it, but will probably end up throwing her into a volcano before that happens. He will stick up for her though, maybe.
Adam Walters - This guy gave Kenny like sixty slices of cheese for grilled cheese sandwiches. He's also batshit insane.
Smoking Mirrors - This kid has some nuts.
[edit] Enemies
Nearly everyone but the people above are considered enemies. So sorry, if you thought you were special enough to have Ace's personal hate for you and only you, you're stupid.
[edit] Sword Collection
Ace keeps a good deal of his blades at a shop behind a locked vault. Usually he'll carry about five to six blades on him at a time. Four long blades and two short. These blades are gotten from a number of different ways, be it stealing, making them himself, gifts, or finding them.
[edit] Onyx Wind
Ace's first sword gotten after coming to the Isles and favorite by far. This completely black ninja blade has gotten him out of trouble many times. It's demonic orgins allow it to cut spirits and protect Ace with a demonic aura. It was given to him by Holy Sword(Arlow) after they dueled and Ace lost. Later the true owner of the sword, Calliana, attempted to take the sword back. Unwilling to do so, they had to duel. After he won it was settled and he got to keep Onyx Wind.
Recently he's murdered so many people with it it pokevolved into a Soul Edge looking sword.
[edit] The Demon Arm
This dark gray scimitar was made by Ace himself from the arm of the demon Shade Nefarious. After Ace stole Shade's blade and the demon started to take it back by force, Aka used his Rikti Blade to cut Shade's arm off. Kenny might have lost the blade he stole, but was able to make a new blade to take it's place.
[edit] Lightning's Edge
A blade given to him by one of heaven's fallen sword smiths, Ruby Strike. This blue broadsword with the red hilt is able to cast out lightning and burn Ace's wounds closed, lucky for Ace pain doesn't bother him. He later improved the lightning effects with a magic gem.
Ace has been inspired to out do the angel's smith skills and has removed the gems and is letting Alastor Kuro hold on to the currently worthless blade for awhile.
Finished, Kenny has been able to make a white blade of pure energy. Shit yeah.
[edit] Whisper
The Katana of Toketsu Taki. Ace had been stalking him for awhile and was finally able to ambush him in an empty lab. Easily defeating the swordsman, Kenny picked up the blade to have his mind assaulted. He didn't pass out or die, and even though he is in pain while using it, he is able to use it, which surprised Toketsu. It's a very powerful blade that can cut through very strong materials.
Toketsu tried taking the blade back and ended up getting his arm chopped off. Kenny gave the arm to the Thorn Bandit who uses it as a back scratcher until he lost it.
[edit] Killsaw
Shock Jaw and Ace went on a few jobs once and Kenny being the creative fellow that he is, asked the shark for some of his teeth to make a blade from. A few weeks later Kenny made the Killsaw, a dagger styled after the Red Cap's that is all white and can cut and saw through flesh and bone with ease.
[edit] The Styles Blade
This large broadsword was given to him by Chase Styles after Ace failed to steal it from him and they battled to show Kenny really did know how to use a blade. It's special in the fact this blade is very large but splits into two smaller longswords for Kenny to fight with.
[edit] Ace's Lucky Blade
This white tanto is the only blade he inherited from his family. It's very special to him and has gotten him out of a lot of trouble, and also seriously injured him. When he pulls it from the sheath, a dice rolls inside the hilt. If the number comes up four and above, Ace gains a great deal of good luck. If it's lower than three though, something terrible will probably happen to him soon. This blade can only use it's special ability once a day.
[edit] The Rest
[edit] Circle of Thorn's Blade
Given to him by Casimi for Christmas
[edit] Zweihander
Forged in a volcano by Dr. Forkenshpoon. Could probably cut a laser beam in half.
[edit] Dark Agony
Given to him by Crimson Agony. It's a small, black dagger.
[edit] Magic Buster
Bought for two thousand dollars from Dues Ex Me. This red and gold falcata's able to screw up the flow of magic to the point of deflecting magical blasts or cutting through magic armor.
[edit] Combat Knife
A simple knife that was thrown at Laz. The big guy ended up keeping it and giving it to Kenny later who despite saying it sucked ass, figured he'd be nice and accept the gift.
[edit] Mysterious Knife
Found by Kiki, who gave the knife to Shade Wield in the hopes it'd cause trouble when Ace attempted to take it. Sadly, with Ace's quick tongue he was able to get the knife with relative ease.
[edit] Shard of Hell
After Shade took his sword back he and Ace never got along. After enough taunting and some help from the crowd, the two went to go duel for it. If Shade won he'd get one of Ace's blades, if Ace won he'd get the Shard of Hell back. After tapping into his feral might, Ace was able to barely pull off a victory. Shade almost didn't give the sword to Kenny though, taking it back right after he gave it to him. But in the end the demon respecting his warriors spirit and gave him the blade out of respect. The two of them are cool now.
[edit] Personality
The most important thing to remember with Kenny. If he threatens to do something, he'll damn well try doing it. He hates most everything with the world and is willing to kill as many people that he can to fix it. The thing is, as vulgar and angry Kenny is, he really cares for the future of the world and doesn't want it ending up in the hands of a bunch of people who'd rather drink, fuck, and piss their life away then take care of themselves then fix it so they don't have to do that shit.
Chances are, Kenny hates you.
[edit] Appearance
His physical body is quite strong and lean. He might actually look attractive if not for the burns and scars that cover his body. Nothing that's really disfiguring that is, but he's been told to put his shirt back on many times. His eyes are completely white, something he got from Danny's DNA that increases his sight. Lastly he has a tattoo on the back of his lower neck. It's of a Celtic cross that has the word Themata on it. When asked what it means, he gives a fairly text book definition of a gut assumption or intuition about the workings of the world or life itself, a philosophy you can’t prove with hard evidence, but something you instinctively know is right and are willing to back.
Also, he's usually packing at least six swords on him. Possibly a few guns too.
[edit] Fighting Style
This is to say, he doesn't have a real one. He usually fights in such an odd and acrobatic fashion it leaves his enemy unknowing what he'll do next. It can be compared to Mugen from Samurai Champloo, but with two blades instead of one.
[edit] Painless
Kenny does not feel pain. Period. He's been trained since birth to block it out and control everything with his body to what's been classified as having introverted psychic abilities. He can basically focus on a wound or injury and make it fix itself faster then usual. He believes he's so tough his body is actually tougher.
[edit] Health
Ace is beyond healthy. He eats right, doesn't eat unhealthy foods such as pizza, and works out everyday. He'll often criticize others for unhealthy behavior. This has also lead him to hate medications, saying that they're now used to only preserve the people that damaged themselves when they were younger, be it drinking, smoking, drugs, whatever. Honestly, Ace believes he wouldn't be able to do what he does if it wasn't for his strict habits about health.
[edit] The Ragtag Rogues
After a hard days work of jobs, Laz and Kenny discussed making some sort of group that would specialize in kicking ass and such. Later forcing Brad into it with them, they opened shop in one of his labs. The papers later tagged them as the Ragtag Rogues because of how different they were from each other and of the endless fighting the group did amongst themselves while on the job.
[edit] Ace's Job
Kenny is one of the proprietors of the Ragtag Rogues. So far his main job has been to handle collecting jobs, which is odd seeing as how he's probably the most incompetent out of the three main Rogues. Other small things he does is handle any psychic powered enemy they face. With Kenny's special training, their powers are next to nothing. Also, Kenny is most likely the cause for any trouble the group sinks into, what with his sword hunting and such.
[edit] Cimerora
Being pissed off at everyone for sucking at life, Kenny has moved to Cimerora and spends his days rooming with Fist Fight, and hating every moment of it, and destroying entire villages in his past time, which he loves.
[edit] Other Note Worthy Things
Ace does more than fight, eat healthy, and curse. In his free time he enjoys exploring Nerva's jungle, usually for treasure or just a good training spot. He's also not too bad at drawing and usually does so when there's nothing else really going on. And finally Kenny is a fairly skilled fisherman, not only with catching fish, but stealing.
[edit] History
[edit] Family History
The Tanto Family is not a family to get in trouble with. A long generation of skilled swordsmen and assassin's have made the name somewhat famous in certain groups. What many don't know is the deal the family made to gain such power.
[edit] The Deal
Long ago there was a young swordsman that wished to be stronger. His journey of strength landed him an early grave. But a certain being saw strength in the man's will to being powerful. That being was a Grim Reaper. And yes, there are more than one, and this one happened to be quite lazy. Speaking with the dead man, the reaper offered to return him back to life and with a blade that would gather souls for the reaper in return. An added bonus to this, the man and his family would be blessed with a good life as long as they offered enough souls to the reaper. The curse to this was that if they didn't gather enough souls they'd be unable to move on and would be the reapers until enough souls were collected by the families kin.
[edit] First Marriage
John Tanto was no one to screw with. Mastering nearly everything his family learned before him at a very early age left him with the time to come up with his own tricks and do his own thing. One of these adventures where he was doing his own thing he met a Tsoo woman who would later give birth to Jack Tanto, Kenny's oldest brother and Quic Silver. This marriage would never last though, as John didn't see any potential in his son.
[edit] Round Two
A couple years later John met another woman. Shelly was experimenting with making "the perfect human." John and Shelly quickly found something in common and fell into something of a very odd love. Their desires to make a stronger, better human unified them. Not soon after, Danial B. Tanto was born, the Advent Assassin, followed by Tempy Tanto, the Shadowed Dancer.
[edit] The Clone
Where as Danny was being mutated, trained, and pushed to his limits to become the perfect human and Tempy being pampered with only slight training, John wasn't sure Danny had enough potential to meet his plot. So taking the DNA of himself, Jack, and Danny; Shelly took the best parts of them all and made Kenneth B. Tanto.
