Jikkosuru (ジッコースル, Jikkōsuru) is a character in the Aozora's Adventure series.
Background[edit | edit source]
Jikkosuru is a man-turned-cyborg fueled by radioactive energy seeping through his body. Apart from his face- covered with a mouthguard and two thin black belts strapped across, he is covered entirely in metal, with only very few organic elements still remaining.
As a human, Jikkosuru was a feared criminal skilled with a sharp shadowy coat, dual-wield pistols, and throwing knives. Forced into a life of crime thanks to losing the ones he was close to and not being able to live the nice and relaxing lifestyle he had dreamed of, his driving instinct was “if I can’t have my freedom, then everyone won’t get theirs.”
During one of his heists, Dokuuchi, a big muscular man that also had a criminal record encountered and battled Jikkosuru for his latest acquisition. The encounter was fatal, and both criminals laid defeated and barely alive. The two bodies were soon abducted to an unknown location.
Jikkosuru was reborn, but did not resort to his old ways of mass-murder, simply wanting to be at peace now that there was no chance he could ever go back to simpler times. He took two pairs of belts, a black triangular mouthguard resembling teeth, and two custom-made pistols with sharp blades on their bases and silently left, packing several cans of reserve fuel to keep himself alive. He took a liking to rainy, stormy weather in this new state, standing on a cliffside and feeling the cold rain impact against his metal structure while the neon green nuclear substances and the radioactive rod impaled into his forehead shined like a beacon.
Personality[edit | edit source]
Jikkosuru is quiet and unemotional, preferring not to waste time with small talk and get down to business. He prefers being alone and isolated- to remain far away from those he once terrified and dissipate all the grief and stress that he had built up over his years as a wanted man on the run.
Powers and Abilities[edit | edit source]
As a humanoid cyborg, Jikkosuru has advanced endurance and can endure and survive seemingly fatal situations thanks to the density and strength of his metal body. The armors that make up his chest line are the most powerful and tightly packed, absorbing or deflecting attacks directed at him. His face and the fuel canisters, in contrast, are not well guarded and can be wounded and damaged with enough force- forcing Jikkosuru to adapt to a fighting strategy to prevent these easy targets from constant exposure.
Jikkosuru dual-wields two custom-designed pistols with black blades. Using his genetically-enhanced eyes and signals from the rod in his head, Jikkosuru can use the pistols to snipe distant targets including those that approach out of his line of sight. His accuracy with these blind shots are imperfect and likely to miss, so it’s only used when Jikkosuru is sure to get a hit with his shots. The blades on the undersides are used for silent strikes at close range and to ward off approaching foes, as well as to cut through metal and steel.
Jikkosuru’s legs are thin needle-like stilts with spikes emerging from the front and a sharp blade coated with a radioactive surface protruding from the calf muscles. The muscles of Jikkosuru’s legs are very dense, powerful, and always in use to help with balancing while moving and standing and to stab through surfaces that the stilts would otherwise easily slip off- pinning him down in place. Jikkosuru can cling to and sprint up walls at very fast speeds and perform clean cuts with a well-aimed roundhouse kick.
