Human
Name: MAGNIFICO
Gender: Male
Age: Forever VIRILE and VITAL
Ranking: Ties to Brotherhood, acts as JUSTICE compels him.
Physical Description:
MAGNIFICO is a 5'10”, 200 lbs Mexican man with an excellent, well developed physique. His body is HAIRLESS and BRONZED. His muscles seem to GLISTEN with an inner light. This is the BEAUTY of his SOUL.
When not engaged in LUCHA LIBRE against 'RUDOS', he wears a tightly cut and flattering GOLDEN business suit and matching tie. When JUSTICE must be dispensed, it dematerializes, leaving him dressed in his VERY TIGHT gold wrestling shorts and matching high cut wresting shoes.
Regardless of his other attire, MAGNIFICO is never seen without his GOLDEN MASK. It is BEAUTIFUL without descending into vanity. It suggests a STERN JUDGE, but the effect is softened by MAGNIFICO's twinkling dark eyes and HEARTWARMING smile.
MAGNIFICO movements exude CONFIDENCE, and when engaged in combat, he is shockingly FAST and GRACEFUL. He speaks in a HEAVILY ACCENT, and likes to enthusiastically EMPHASIZE words. DESPITE this he has a STAGGERING vocabulary.
Personality
MAGNIFICO is a man of JUSTICE. He has great COMPASSION for the common man, and fights as their CHAMPION. He is especially kind to CHILDREN, to whom he is an INSPIRATION and ROLEMODEL, a burden he treats with great HUMILITY and SERIOUSNESS.
MAGNIFICO is confident of the path to JUSTICE. No silver tongued TRICKERY could make him lose sight of the TRUTH. It is this CLARITY of PURPOSE that INSPIRES all who's lives are touched by him. Despite his relentless pursuit of the INJUST, MAGNIFICO has an INFINITE capacity for forgiveness. Indeed, it is a GREAT DAY when one awakens to JUSTICE.
History:
MAGNIFICO was born when a YOUNG and IDEALISTIC boy put the GOLDEN MASK of his BELOVED FATHER. Since then, he has fought for JUSTICE and HONOR, inside the ring and out. His first brush with the spiritual world was a match against a RUDO of incredible power. But he knew what had happened. The only way a MAN who knows NO JUSTICE could be so strong was for him to ENSLAVED by a great EVIL. MAGNIFICO's LOVE OF JUSTICE awakened the POWER necessary for him to SEE and DEFEAT the Evil, which he did so with a 3-count following a SUPLEX MAGNIFICO.
Since becoming aware of SUPERNATURAL INJUSTICE, MAGNIFICO has focused his efforts on bringing the ring to EVIL and PINNING IT, SUBMITTING or KNOCKING IT OUT FOR A 20-SECOND COUNT.
Additional Info:
MAGNIFICO is a WORLD CLASS Luchador, and has nearly unparalleled ability in the field of LUCHA LIBRE. Though other beings may have SUPERNATURAL STRENGTH, or REALITY WARPING powers, few can challenge his technical skill, and NONE can challenge his INDOMITABLE SOUL.
His finishing maneuver is the SUPLEX MAGNIFICO which involves SOMERSAULTING with his opponent in midair. He is FAMOUS for being able to link nearly ANYTHING into this maneuver, whether it be a DIFFERENT MANEUVER, COUNTER, or RECOVERY.
Power Level: NOTHING is more powerful than JUSTICE
Abilities: JUSTICIA
MAGNIFICO's JUSTICIA is powered by his SPIRITUAL FORCE, POTENT CHARISMA and LOVE OF JUSTICE. He can detect the presence or absence of JUSTICE in another's soul with a glance, and uses his powers to fight EVIL on HONORABLE terms.
Justicia's summons a wrestling ring. This ring will always be large enough to comfortably accommodate himself and his opponent, who if a spiritual being, becomes visible (so that the fans can watch). A target without a mask finds themselves wearing a colorful luchador mask that reflects their personality and soul.
Despite being highly visible, the common man accepts Justicia as the work of justice, and does not question it.
Within the confines of the ring, MAGNIFICO's spiritual power becomes physical force, imbuing him with superhuman physicality and allowing him to perform otherwise impossible feats of Lucha Libre.
A match is inviolate, no interloper can enter the ring and interfere. Parties in the ring when it forms excuse themselves from the designated area, and may cheer on the sidelines.
The ring imposes victory conditions on the ensnared target, which a disembodied voice announces in excited Spanish (but is universally understood).
The Victory Conditions are:
-A fighter pins his opponent squarely for 3 seconds.
-A fighter forces his opponent to submit.
-A fighter knocks his opponent out of the ring for 20 seconds.
-A fighter strips his opponent of his mask. (This also causes great shame)
As Lucha Libre is a wholesome sport for the entire family to enjoy, none can die while in the ring.
The loser is compelled to acknowledge the winner's victory, and is placed under a geas. The strength of the geas is dictated by how amicable the terms are and the difference in the power levels of the fighters. A geas wears off over time, but some may become permanent (as dramatically appropriate). Normal Hollow are purified by their defeat.
MAGNIFICO's standard geas is 'CEASE YOUR INJUSTICE!' which results in the target abandoning their current evil action and retreating gracefully. Particularly dramatic victories may result in the light of justice finding purchase in the loser's soul, converting him to the forces of good.
MAGNIFICO, as a adherent of justice, never loses of course, so it is unknown what manner of geas can be placed upon him. Surely, however, no compulsion can force him to turn his back on justice.
MAGNIFICO has a great deal of fame in his home country of Mexico, and has a following amongst wrestling enthusiast world wide. However due to his enormous personal charisma and labors for justice and the common man, he gains fans and admirers wherever he goes.
He has amassed a small fortune through wrestling and merchandising. Most of this goes towards charity to provide opportunities for the common man and children. What remains he uses to travel the world to fight the latest injustice. His glamorous lifestyle is a product of his fame and the hospitality it engenders, not the personal desire for luxury.
Other Characters:
Karla Ortega, Independent Arrancar
Roleplay Sample:
MAGNIFICO stood resolute, staring down the Hollow in front of him. The MONSTER held in its grasp the spirit of a YOUNG GIRL. Despite giving up 5 feet to the SERVANT OF EVIL, it was clear that MAGNIFICO was the greater of the two.
Pulling his hands out of his pockets, MAGNIFICO spread his arms to the sky, as his BUSINESS SUIT disintegrated into spirit particles. His WELL OILED bronze body briefly DAZZLED the Hollow, causing it to take a half step back.
'JUSTICIA!' he bellowed, and a wave of JUSTICE expanded from him, creating the RING where MAGNIFICO would RIGHT this grievous wrong. The POWERS of the ring separated the monster roughly from the INNOCENT GIRL, who took the opportunity to scurry out of the ring.
'You shall ATONE for your crimes!' MAGNIFICO intoned gravely, RESPECTFUL of the announcers voice.
The words were LOST on the Hollow. All it knew was that this MAN, this... PEERLESS SPECIMEN of humanity, had gotten in between itself and its meal. MAGNIFICO knew, but the words must be said.
The bell rang, and JUSTICE was served.
