Claymore

The Bull

You’re big, and strong, and tough. You’re know what fighting really is, and you take joy in it.

You're a badass stone-faced destroyer. And, sure… you've got a soft-side, too. But you don't show that to just anybody. Only the people you care about most.

And everybody else?

They can eat your fist.

Hero Name: Claymore

Real name: Jennifer Jericho (aka Subject C-17)

Look:

Sixteen years old, with dark red hair and tanned skin. A closer look reveals unusual muscle definition in her arms and shoulders, and faint surgical scars over much of her body which have long since healed to the point of being barely visible. When in civilian clothing she usually wears baggy sweaters or hoodies to hide these facts.

Her hero costume is thrown together from whatever she could get her hands on at the time, and consists mostly of loose-fitting, practical clothes in dark colours.

Abilities:

Augmented strength and reflexes. Accelerated healing. Military combat training.
