LATTEI
EARTHLING • 23 • COOL DUDE • DETECTIVE EXTRAORDINAIRE • SHORT
A recklessly brave Central City cop with a penchant for justice whose always thinking about the needs of the people, Lattei is an Earthling with a lot of heart and perhaps not a lot of anything else. He has mediocre martial arts training and beyond that is self-taught, altering techniques his now-deceased brother taught him. He wields a large pair of metal tonfas that conduct Ki. He prefers them to a gun. His goal in life is to catch up to his brother's legend and protect Earth and the weak from harm.

TRAITS
Makufushigi Adventure
Lattei is a cunning type, he's always thinking up new and additional ways to suppress those who break the law and those who oppose him. He has an extra 2 TP to spend on all sparking techniques.
Martial Artist
Trained by his much stronger and much taller brother, Lattei has a solid grasp on the fundamentals of hand-to-hand combat and is particularly skilled with his weapon of choice: Tonfas, a particularly Eastern baton weapon that the typical side-handle police baton is derived from. Helpful for self-defense and non-lethal. Due to his knowhow and skill, he gains Sparking Techniques every 70K PL instead of 100K.
Cash Money
Despite not being the reason he wields justice as a weapon, his position as a particularly high-ranking detective and officer of the law does come with some benefits when it comes to lining his pockets. Some might call him well-off, he definitely hails from an upper-class family but he is not one to take bribes. Lattei earns Zeni at a faster rate.
Avenger
Lattei does not tolerate injustice. Once per thread, upon the defeat of an ally, he regains all momentum in a show of his blazing pursuit of justice. His momentum effects are boosted for 3 turns.
Restrained Might
Detective Vente's mission statement is suppression and he is not known for going all-out unless absolutely necessary. Fighting petty thugs and attempting to non-lethally resolve all situations has made it so he has become more comfortable in weaker forms. Techniques used while below his final transformation gain a bonus of +10%.

INVESTIGATIONS
The Pursuit of Power
2) The Cherry, not so Cheery, Fishing Fiasco || Participants: Alaistair , Beowulf ,The Pursuit of Power
1) Steel's Tremendous Training || Participants: Mister Steel , Beowulf , Malt .
Lattei happens upon a scuffle that he tries to break up only to find out it's a spar with full consent. In an attempt to stay on top of his training, he joins and is pitted against an alien named Malt. He finds himself winning the spar only due to Malt's inability to control their transformation, a lesson that he needs to become stronger if he wants to protect the people of Earth. He would like to meet Malt, Mister Steel and Beowulf again.

He would like to meet Malt, Mister Steel and Beowulf again.
Be careful what you wish for, because in this humiliating endeavour, everyone's favourite officer runs into Beowulf once again only under terrible circumstances. Beowulf wreaks havoc at Cherry Fishing Company's port by complete accident, blasting it from far away with an energy attack. Lattei attempts to mediate, albeit horribly, between Beowulf and the boss of the aforementioned company. Beowulf ends up fleeing the scene much to Lattei's dismay and anger. The detective swears to catch his ex-acquaintance. Not his best day! Hopefully reunions with Malt and Mister Steel won't go so poorly...
3) Terror in the Skies || Participants: Didi Erbia
With not much to do, Lattei continues to clean up the streets and help out those in need by going after reports of some weirdo in Central City who was harassing poor civilians. It turns out to be none other than a mischievous Majin! ...Which Lattei knew nothing about until a helpful and pissed Saiyan gave him the run down. Knowledge is power! He warned Didi to stop what he was doing lest he face the consequences and much to nobody's surprise, had to try and apprehend the Majin for not listening with the assistance of the aforementioned Saiyan.
4) Another Happy Landing || Participants: Azoth Icepeak Beowulf @faustus
This is getting a bit absurd, isn't it? Lattei can't stop bumping into this Vulkis martial artist! Upon meeting him though, he realises just how large the gap between their strength is and gets into his own head about his own power. This drives him to want to continue to chase his brother's shadow in the hopes of not being left behind by the crazy fighters he kept running into. He also met Azoth of Arcose, a seemingly important figure in the political landscape and helped tell him about Earth. The officer also met Faustus but they didn't get along too well..
5) The Grand Ceremony of the 25th Tenkaichi Budokai! || Participants: Otherworld Yangcong @faustus Captain Sweetheart Erebos Parker Bomba Mister Steel
A jampacked ceremony to celebrate one of Earth's largest events that Lattei would soon be taking part in! He got to meet all sorts of colourful characters and hopefully these introductions would lead into things later down the line. He also got to see Mister Steel again, now learning his real name. In the pursuit of testing his strength and improving through the Budokai, Lattei hopes to learn more about himself and the fighters who inhabit Earth.
6) Scoping out the Competition || Participants: Tarch @dejames Reigun
Another exciting event, the detective is relaxing before the preliminary rounds of the tournament in the hopes of calming his nerves in the downtime only to bump into than none other than his first opponent, Tarch, a halfling Saiyan! They promise to hold nothing back in their fight and Lattei takes an interest in how Tarch will develop as a fighter. He also bumped into a Namekian who helped Lattei do some introspection and another Earthling with a weird name, Reigun. It was a pretty eventful day.
7) The Serpent Of Lies!|| Participants: @yanshi
Never allowed to rest, Lattei takes off even during his time off to deal with a large crisis. People and officers have been disappearing and worst of all, showing up dead. Completely frozen. The officer engages the foul beast responsible thinking it an easy case but gets himself a fierce battle and learns more about the perpetrator.
8) Budokai Preliminary Rounds! Lattei vs Tarch! || Participants: Tarch
The fated bout between the Earthling detective and the halfling child! Keeping good to his promise, Lattei refuses to hold back and it's under this pressure that Tarch was able to draw out power he didn't know he could access. Gradually coaxing more strength out of him, Lattei was thinking less of the tournament and more about helping the growth of his opponent. It wasn't just a one-way exchange however as the officer finally made progress towards following his brother's steps by using his ultimate technique, Rising Sun, successfully.
