GENERAL INFORMATION
NAME: Wispah
ALIASES: The Quiet Man, Silent but Deadly, The Rake
AGE: Somewhere close to 50.
GENDER: Masculine-presenting
SPECIES: Alien - Extraterrestrial, Fastest in the Universe, Alien Archives
GENERAL TRAITS: Antisense, Trump Card
STARTING PLANET: Earth
HOME REGION: None for now.
CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
APPEARANCE:
BACKGROUND: Not much is known about the assassin named Whispah. His appearance doesn't match that of any contacted species in the galaxy, leading some to suspect he might be a mutant or bio-android. He doesn't have a home, and currently does not appear to have any permanent contacts (or at least none that use their real names). There is nobody alive that claims to be his enemy, and nobody alive that claims to be his friend. In short, he is an enigma that refuses to be fully explained.
What is known is that he is part of a larger network of assassins and spies that works for the highest bidder and values privacy. Some that bothered to learn about him or study him have been able to surmise that he was formerly an "Apprentice" in this "Guild of Assassins" and has now graduated to "Journeyman" status, allowing him to accept contracts directly rather than through intermediaries. He also appears to have had some cybernetic augmentation centered around his sensory organs and mouth. He never speaks, no matter if it is demanded of him or if he feels pain or if he is angered (which is a rare occurrence). Rumors circulate that he is either mute or has taken a vow of silence. He does not appear to be loyal to any specific cause, but he does do his best to complete contracts. Money is refunded and contracts are refused if someone is above a certain power level, meaning he must have an upper limit and a defineable power level.
One man that hired him put it best, "He has no rules. No boundaries. He doesn't flinch at torture, sapient trafficking, or genocide. He's not loyal to a flag or country or any set of ideals. He trades blood for money."
And yet, recently, some in the galaxy's vast dark-web have found evidence that Wispah has been buying, or stealing, or being paid with starmaps from forgotten exploratory missions and smuggler's outposts past the edge of the known stars. He's looking for something. But what it is, nobody but Wispah knows.

COMBAT INFORMATION
TECHNIQUES: You start with Three Standard Technique Slots and One Sparking Slot that you can use any way you like. Some species start out with additional slots, or access to certain slot-based abilities for free. You also start with two additional Utility Technique Slots.
Light Offensive || Quick ShotADDITIONAL NOTES: Rename "Base Transformation" to "Black Bolt". Also, the following Transformations are chosen to be available for unlock later; x6 at 50k, x16 at 100k, x26 at 200k, x36 at 300K, and x42 at 350k
Using a bit of his energy, Wispah fires a rapidly-travelling ki-bullet at his opponent. Basic, but it gets the job done.
Power: 20%
KP Cost: 1 KP
Variants: KP Cost Reduction, Power Upgrade
Light Defensive || Teleports Behind You
Whispah uses his assassin training to quickly disappear away from an attack, then reappear somewhere else. He usually "jumps" to somewhere behind his opponent.
Power: 60%
KP Cost: 2 KP
Variants: Evasive, Power Upgrade
Medium Offensive || Nothing Personnel Kid
Whispah creates two pairs of ki blades that wrap around his non-vestigial fingers, which he uses to stab at his opponent from close range. He prefers to use this technique from behind.
Power: 40%
KP Cost: 4 KP
Variants: Piercing, Power Upgrade
Light Offensive Sparking || Deafening Whisper
The reason for Whispah's complete silence is made obvious during the few times that he speaks. Even a whisper requires him to prepare his body for the strain, and even a whisper can ripple out and devastate the area around him.
Power: 30% (50%, 70%)
KP Cost: 2 KP
Variants: Quake, Preparation, 2x Power Upgrade
Utility Technique || Flight
Wispah doesn't have wings, but he knows how to levitate in the air with his ki. He can use this either for quick movement over planetary surfaces, or to just hover in the air ominously.
Utility Technique || Enhanced Senses
Thanks to dedicated training, gene augmentation, and cybernetic implants, Whispah's senses all extend far beyond the range of what is considered normal. He can see a wider swathe of the electromagnetic spectrum, sense the electrical fields generated by most opponents at a short distance, detect and discern trace amounts of various chemicals by smell and touch, and he can see pretty well in the dark. Most of his enhanced senses are confused by others with an anti-sense field, however. The enhancements also do not allow him to detect power levels or ki, but he can track just about anyone he meets from half a planet away.
