Name: Zachariah Blu Rose Nickname(s): Saint Status: Unknown Age: mid-40's Gender: Male Nationality: American Ethnicity: Caucasian Height: 6'5 Weight: 213 lbs Religious Beliefs: Truth Sexual Orientation: Asexual
Appearance: A rather tall man with a slender frame, Saint may have an imposing frame of sinewy muscles from a lifetime of monastic solitude however the ever-present gentle graces of his being counter this entirely. He bares tanned skin, world-worn, with a long dirt brown hair that cascades just past his shoulders now sprinkled with strand of silver-gray and luminescent green eyes. Saint is often seen, or the rare occasions he is seen, wearing either weathered earthen-colored monks' robes with a white wrapping sash, or a plain pair of khakis and button-down shirt with a large white coat overtop.
Personality: With a nickname like Saint, this seems to be a formality but shall done. Saint is a man who exudes nothing but peace, tranquility, kindness, and gentleness. There is not a creature known to have feared the man and are often, in fact, found in his company. He truly believes in the betterment of humanity through philosophy discourse, to challenge the conceptions and ideals people hold close to them.
Interests: Everything, as an interest, searching understanding is never something to be looked down upon.
Skills: Whatever he desires.
Abilities/Powers:Inherent Omniscience - the ability to know anything that one chooses to know and can be known. The user’s mind is unblocked to the entire universe; they know every answer to every question, past, present, and future. May or may not allow the user to have all information at all times as some knowledge may be spontaneous while some may require the action of others.
Fighting Style: When in his younger days, Saint trained, as a means of quelling the demons of his youth, Capoeira while living in Brazil. He became a very proficient practioner on the art form in competitive arenas. Later on, during his travels of the world to find a clearer peace, Saint arrived in Tibet and took to the art of Tai Chi. However with his abilities no true style is beyond his grasp, thus what is the truth of his style?
Pacifism. Saint moves only to defend himself, battling the violence of the world and others with only kindness, restraint, understanding, and forgiveness. The battle of the mind and heart is the only one that needs to be fought.
History: Saint dealt with a very troubled youth, a horrendous school system, to rise as a beacon of peace in a hostile environment. This gave him much acclaim though it did not bring his own self the peace he sought. Over the years, he travelled the world honing his body, mind, and heart to find the peace that would make him true to this nickname. During this time, he spent much of his time helping any and all he could in their times of trouble, never yielding to the violent forces of the world and standing as a protector to those downtrodden.
For over two decades, this was his way but in more recent times he has become secluded in the far reaches of the mountains of the world. The only times, it is said, that he ventures forth is when the world truly needs a light in the darkness...
Question on the ability, are these things he could know that anyone could learn given time, or does he know EVERYTHING? Like mind reading, predicting, etc. Latter seems possibly too OP if so.
He can know anything if he so chooses to, whether or not he is proficient at is an entirely different story. However, I would concede he isn't able to know what is currently going through someone's head if that makes you more comfortable.
