Fight Man (Hisuitupper)

Fight Man is a primary character in the Tupper RP Hisuitupper, a spin-off story for Poketupper. A newcomer to the land of Hisui, Fight Man had come under the premise of vengeance for his clan, slain at the hands of a cruel tyrant. However, the journey he would embark on would soon shift his purview of the world, and the consequences of his previous folly.
== History ==
The Fight Clan was a proud and powerful family that watched over a great portion of Kanto. Honorable, chivalrous, and altruistic, the Fight Clan were a benevolent governance, seeking rule through trust and loyalty. Though often boasting their strength as the leading clan of the region, they sought not to abuse their power in the name of compounding the impoverished, and instead ensuring their wealth is distributed across all that they ruled over. Despite their name, the Fight Clan were rather pacifistic in their rule, being adverse to striking the first blow and instead favoring negotiation when dealing with belligerent forces. Only in the situation where it is clear that confrontation is inevitable do they display their impressive might.
From the Fight Clan stems Fight Man, son of Fight Man (The sons of the Fight Clan were all named the same, as per tradition). The natural successor to his father, Fight Man was esteemed with much regard. However, the young Machop wasn't exactly the warrior-type; shy and bashful, the newest Fight Man would find it hard to focus on his training. He was inherently skilled, no doubt, but he was never all too confident in these skills. Despite objections from his tutors, Fight Man's father continued to vouch for his son's potential. 
"There is strength in continuing on. Fall seven times, and get up eight. This is what it means to live."
However, before Fight Man could harness this potential that his father saw in him, the whims of a warmonger would ordain different plans for the family of warriors. They struck like a bomb, and departed like a storm. Through some trickery, members of the DeGroot shogunate had infiltrated the ranks of the Fight Clan months prior, in which they would open the gates for the invading force from the inside. Wholly unprepared for an attack, let alone one of this ferosity, the Fight Clan would topple within hours of the offensive's arrival. On top of commandeering the people governed by the Fight Clan, the shogun himself made it a point to slay all members of the Clan in its entirety. No trace of their existence left, no morsel of their culture or ideals. No legacy.
....However, in his haste, the shogun failed to thoroughly sweep the area for any stragglers. Why would he? Everything was going up in flames. Nothing but cinders and ashes would remain of this place. But, in his arrogance, the shogun overlooked the one place that remained untouched. Obscured by rubble was what used to be the basement of the Fight Clan's living quarters. And there, cowering in grief and sorrow, was the final bastion of the Fight Clan's legacy. 
=== Seeking Retribution ===
A blazing rage would instill in the young Machop. Grief transformed into anger, and anger converted into hatred. Hatred toward the one who took everything from him. As the DeGroot shogunate mobilized to their next objective, Fight Man would quietly trail behind, hoping for a moment to enact his revenge. He had no plan for actually carrying out this plot, nor did he even possess the skills to do it, but he didn't care. He knew he had to do something, anything. He was certainly entitled to his fury, but one must wonder what such a fixation would do to such a young mind. 
His travels as the lagging tail of the shogunate would bring him to the bountiful land of Hisui. At long last, he saw an opening in which he could launch an attack on the man who had stoked the flames of war time and time again. His attack was concise, it was done without fear or regard for his own safety, it was...stopped immediately by one of the shogun's commanding officers. The pitiable and inexperienced fighter would soon be released, and told to run away. Humiliated and spiritually broken, Fight Man would yield, departing from the situation as fast as he possibly could. Though he was spared of an undignified death, a part of him wished it ended there, as opposed to having to live with his failure.
However, a new hope soon welled in Fight Man's heart. Hearing news of a group besting the renowned noble of the Fieldlands, the Machop would seek out this eclectic group of renowned warriors, in hope of picking up where his training had left off, and becoming a force that could seriously contend with the shogun.
== Relationships ==
=== Jubilife Gang (R, Aki, Gull, Fren) ===
The group of kids that Fight Man would soon become quick companions with. Under the premise of getting stronger, Fight Man would accompany them on their missions to quell the frenzied Nobles that were agitated by the rampant storms around Hisui. Being the first friendly faces he'd come across in a long time, Fight Man regards them with admiration and respect. He thinks very highly of them, and even after their involvement with the ransacking of the shogunate's camp, he understood their reasons for doing so and still views them in a positive light. Though chances to reconvene with them after his evolution were sparse, his belief in them would never cease.
=== Green Mile ===
Though interactions between the two were intially sparse, Fight Man and Green Mile would gain a mutual respect for one another, in a student-master relationship. Though lacking a memory on her life before Hisui, Green Mile had displayed impressive fighting prowess, of which Fight Man was drawn to in order to reaffirm his goal of getting stronger. Under her advanced tutelage, Fight Man was able to evolve into a Machoke. Fight Man is eternally grateful for her contributions to his journey, though he does seem disagreeable with Green Mile's more niche knowledge, usually involving swift and brutal assassination techniques. It's just not for him.
=== Astrid ===
As the Commander of Jubilife Village, Fight Man is sort of obligated to fall in line to her command. Though mostly courteous to her judgement, her vindictive tendencies would rub him the wrong way, especially in regards to his discovery of her ousting of the Zoroark known as Oneiro. Their disagreements would come to a head in the final bout against DeGroot, in which he had to defend his position of maintaining the shogun's life against the unrepenting justice that Astrid would have liked to deliver.
=== Oneiro ===
The physical embodiment of vengeful fury, Oneiro would be a major mental roadblock in Fight Man's journey. Taking hold of his fears and manifesting them in front of him, the Zoroark became something of a bogeyman to Fight Man. It's only in their next and final encounter would their relationship be further expanded; having matured enough to finally overcome her entrappings, Fight Man would deal a lethal blow to the lingering spirit. In this instance, he would be shown a vision, the reason behind her bitter malice. And in this instance, Fight Man saw a mirror of himself. Granting the loathsome spirit a final reprieve, Fight Man would take these lessons to heart, with it becoming the cornerstone to his spiritual ascension.
