Skills/Talents:
• Basic Self Defense: Gallatin used to take several martial arts classes when he was younger, but draining interest and other events distracted him from it. As such, it has been several years since he has actively practiced martial arts of any kind. While he’s not enrolling in any competitions any time soon, he still remembers the basic forms and maneuvers to at least be moderately competent in a fight.
• Swimming: Gallatin knows how to swim! Not that much of an achievement as he is the slowest on his school team, but he is still at average speed. The year before, he even didn’t get last in a state-wide competition!
• Nerd: Not really a skill but knowledge is kind of powerful. Gallatin is well versed with knowledge of many fandoms from many different cultures; from popular super heroes and cartoons to anime and manga. He is also quite intelligent, far from a super genius, as he has been able to maintain A’s and A-‘s in his quarterly grades as of late.
• Programmer: Gallatin is officially licensed in the C++ and Java programming language!
• Violinist/Pianist: Gallatin can play the piano and violin very well. His mother made him learn, so he rarely ever plays out of amusement.
Personality: Gallatin is a nerdy, kept-to-himself kind of person. He doesn’t like seeking out social interaction for fear of being further alienated from his peers than he already is. When he does seek interaction with loved ones and close acquaintances though, he has quite the personality change. He is known to have quite the bubbly, and rambunctious nature when with familiar faces. He has a strong sense as to what is right and wrong. Gallatin normally having zero tolerance for the later of the 2 in every situation. However, this usually results in his being beaten up on several occasions when the end result of several interactions were fights. For the most part though, he is friendly and mild mannered to even complete strangers. Get on his bad side though, and he’s well known to hold a grudge forever. The people on his good side, on the other hand, earn his non-ending loyalty and friendship.
Theme:
Appearance: Gallatin Monado is a teenage boy of African-American descent. He’s below average height. He’s not really that physically fit as he doesn’t particularly enjoy physical activity. Even with that though, he constantly maintains a lean/border-line skinny body build. He lacks upper body strength, and strength in general as he doesn’t exercise regularly, but has surprisingly toned muscles from his yearly expenditures on his many schools’ Swimming teams. Gallatin has brown eyes with eyelashes that many girls have said they’d kill for, to his embarrassment. He sports a short afro of black, curly hair and a small, circular, and faded scar on his right cheek from when he had been bitten by a dog several years prior. He commonly wears a green t-shirt with black jeans when at home or in public. When at school, Gallatin dons either a maroon, gold, or green polo shirt and khaki pants. He also frequents a pair of grey and green patterned tennis shoes that add an extra inch to his height.
Personal History: Gallatin Monado is your below average boy. While it was true that he has always had good grades in class, he has always been socially awkward. Ever since as early as he could talk, he always seemed to say the wrong things. Due to the high and squeaky voice he had until he turned 16 and his forward and talkative nature, most of his peers had either alienated him from everyone or actively bullied him, both physically and verbally. Not one to back down though, Gallatin always tried his best to change himself slightly each time he went to a new school to try and find the perfect personality that would get him friends. Due to his parents’ profession as legal consultants, they were very well off in the financial department, but they were constantly moving annually to better conveniently deal with cases they were hired to. This constant moving has brought Gallatin too many schools across the United States, but every time yielding the same results of harassment or seclusion. Finally, he simply gave up on social interaction, preferring to spend his time on his self-constructed laptop in online videogames and forums. One day, his parents were contacted by the CEO of a popular V-PET production company to represent and offer legal advice for him in an upcoming court hearing that he was attending on the subject of his company’s recent financial scandal. Not wasting a second, Gallatin’s parents started preparations right away to leave in the coming months. They even took the time to buy Gallatin classes so as to learn Japanese. As an added bonus, during their year-long stay in Shinjuku, Japan; Gallatin was also being offered free admission to one of the leading high schools in the district. Naturally being a fan of all things relating to Japanese culture, Gallatin was ecstatic about moving to Shinjuku and was hoping broaden his horizons and maybe have a chance at making friends for once and having a good time; bad habits die hard. He was also going to be offered a free tour of the popular V-PET company’s main factory, something that he especially looked forward to…
Backpack Contents:
Digivice:
Spirit Element: Time
Appearance:
S-Hybrid Spirit: Chronamon
Attribute: Vaccine
Family/ies: Virus Buster, Nature Spirit
Type: Wizard, Warrior
Passive Skills:
• Temporal Adaption: Chronamon is able to detect when time is frozen around him by means other than his own powers and can even see in the realm of stopped time as if they were regular seconds to him.
Attacks:
• Fast-Forward Strike: Accelerates time in small increments on the user's person to gain increased speed while striking at an opponent with sharpened claws; a variation can be used on numerous bodily appendages for different results, but leaves the user as tired as if he had exerted the same amount of movement while fighting at a natural pace.
• Age Air Buster: Conjures a DigiPentagram in his hand to accelerate time in the space enclosed there while letting out a deep breath into that space; effectively polluting and poisoning the carbon dioxide due to millennium of corrosion. He then explodes the DigiPentagram to send a pocket of corroded “air” hurtling towards the enemy at a high speed, giving it the force of a punch.
• Chrono Break: Draws on the far reaches of its sealed magic power to stop time for 2 seconds at moderate to full strength, 1 second if fatigued, or a fraction of a second if it has any strength left in a weakened state. At this early on in his evolution line, this ability is only useful for either a quick physical or projectile attack with minimal damage and startup, or a defensive maneuver for retreating, blocking, or evading. (This attack can either extend a post with one quick action, such as a non-cooldown attack added on to the end of your post or a second minipost, or an evasion/block that takes place before your initial post that would normally be in response to an attack. Projectile attacks launched during the period of frozen time or right before are also frozen in place until time resumes, or they are acted on by a force moving during the paused time. Cooldown is 2 posts.)
