Name: Michael Dantes Espiña
Nickname: Mal

Gender: Male
Specie: Human
Age: 17
Sexuality: Straight
Personality: Despite his cheerful and child-like way of acting, he is nothing more than a mentally ill catastrophe survivor veiling everything under a facade. Due to the events that led to where he is now, he has a selfless tendenc-no, urge, to save people, no matter what they think. However, his perception of "saving people" did not mean he would save one mentally or emotionally, no. His perception of saving people meant, as long as he saves them from physical death, he'd be okay with it, no matter how much that person wants to off themselves. He'd try to help them emotionally of course, but only to a certain point. If it were to be explained, it would be like through a meter. If a happy person is a three and a miserable enough to commit suicide is a one, to him, he would be content in leaving a person at one and a half. His child-like facade is more of a self made mask to make himself look normal to everyone else, if not just a tad weird. However, despite this sociopathic tendency, within once layed the heart of a hero. Due to events in his life, said hero was slowly repressed and was perversed into what he is now. Depending on how the rp he is placed in goes, he could very well either become the villain that wants to save humanity in a twisted and morally wrong way or have the hero inside rekindled. However, he CAN still feel normal emotions, they're just very, VERY faint due to him locking them up unconciously to prevent past traumas from screwing him up further. He might also recover from this depending on how he progresses in an rp. One random side note, before the life changing thing he was also an Otaku so things of that sort pop out from time to time.

Looks: He is a short, black haired, asian kid with a pale skin and a cataract on one eye. However, his look is quite contradictory as not only does he possess a body which seemed to be that of a twelve to thirteen year old whoch implies a sort of decelerated aginng, but also white streaks on his hair which may also imply accelerated aging. However, neither is true as what is actually going on is a combination of Syndrome X, a defect that locks someone to a certain age physically and the first signs of radiation damage due to him having once undergone chemotherapy to treat ainor lung cancer he had.

Clothes: When he originally falls into Remnant he wore a gray jacket covering a white V-neck shirt on his torso, a navy blue, denim pair of cargo pants which were quite baggy for him, so her wore a belt, and red sneakers. However, as he gotten financial aid from the Headmaster of Beacon, Ozpin, due to a sheer whim, he forgone those clothing in favor for a more theme friendly pair of clothing. He now wears a white polo shirt covered by metal plates strapped to his shoulder and chests for basic protection. He also now wears brown pants and black boots, only wearing the former clothing on casual events.

Likes: As mentioned earlier, he would like nothing more than to save others, however, that is to say he has nothing else in mind. Due to being forced to fit in, he also learned to enjoy cooking and drawing with the occasional back track to a past Otaku lifestyle rearing it's head once in a while.
Dislike: Honestly, not much. Aside from failing to save someone and bullying, the only real thing that sets him off are firearms, specifically tommy guns and other automatics with a similar shooting sound. You'll soon see why.

Flaws: Aside from his self destructive personality, the semblance and magic he unlocksnalso becomes not only detrimental but outright dangerous.

Backstory: He was born into an average, yet loving family wherein most of his childhood was relatively happy. He also had an uncle, who despite working for the mafia, was the kindest man he knew and was the source of his obsession of being a hero. However, that all changed when he suddenly contracted cancer. Due to the fact that his family couldn't sustain his treatments, the once shining figure known as his uncle, started to descend into darkness. To that man, he would rather give up his reputation and public standing if it meant saving one life. So, the very same person he regarded as a hero started to do the more questionable jobs within the mafia organization if it meant scraping the money he could to treat Mal. However, this didn't earn the ire of his nephew, instead, it did something worse. After the revelation, Mal at first condoned his actions. However, enough mental stress, coupled with the trauma that was caused by his uncle's eventual demise, not only places him into a coma, but also warped his perception of the word hero. Eventually, he would meet his own demise at the operating table when the tumor was finally about to removed via surgery. However, before he did, he was visited by an entity who referred to themselves only as Fate. Fate gave him a deal, a generous one at that. He would be given a second life, however, the catch is that, one, if he dies prematurely in that world, he basically becomes a slave of Fate, forced to do his bidding till the end of time. As to how he was going to live is completely up to him, but Fate knew this one in particular would try to save people nonetheless so he also added another thing to his side of the deal. He was given the ability to wield a natural force within that world called an aura, a weak one but one that regenerates almost as quickly as it breaks, and consequently, a semblance, which is the manifestation of aura bared as a tool to aid survival. However, what Fate didn't account for was that this one also had dormant magic within him, the ability to create a blank dimension called the Infinite Mind Works. Now, to how Mal lives his life is completely up to the roleplay and the circumstances he is placed in. On a side note, should this be a different roleplay, his semblance is essentially replaced by his core concept of existence being replaced with that of a forge, allowing him to wield both abilities as one.

Aura color: Glass-like and transparent, almost invisible except for the light shimmer it creates when broken.

Semblance:
Weapon Copy-He has the ability to trace, copy and project any weapon he has touched. However, he tends to not use guns as those take too long to make as well as give him PTSD.

Magic-Before I explain his magic, I'll explain why he has it. Due to the nature of his world transfer, he is unnaffected by the world's own laws and therefore carries his own magic potential. Something that couldn't be harnessed in his old life due to the combined belief of all of humanity that magic cannot exist and therefore would not manifest. However in this world, it's a different story.

Infinite Mind Works- A blank dimension which becomes altered by a person's core concept and memories. It is deployed through a chant which Mal slowly unlocks throughout the story. This very same dimension also plays by his own rules, therefore reality and time warpers have no power inside of it. Teleportation and self altering abilities do not count as those involve altwring one's self and not their environment.

Weapon:
Sol and Luna-Two A black and white shield combo with an impact activated mechanism in front of the shields which fires dust at wherever the middle is aimed at. Basically Jaune's shield from vol 7 but it shoots the dust instead of using it as added protection.
Tartarus Hook-An original weapon he has that project from his infinite mind works in the form of black chains with small, golden, kunai-shaped anchors on each end. He uses these to swing around, as well as bind foes.

Other: 4th wall breaks may ensue due to his knowledge of specific animes, movies, etc. He has originally until 30 yrs old to live. He's great at cooking. His hair gradually turns whiter the closer he is to death. He also coughs up blood due to the lung surgery being not quite healed. His semblance also has an emergency heal in which it uses his semblance to form swords all around his body, which then knit his wounds. This function would prove deadly if overexerted. His semblance is actually just magic due to him being from a different world
