Jinoga Yujiro

"I've never been a big fan of losing."Jinoga Yujiro is a former member of the Alliance and was a member of the Paragon Crown unit, and is currently regarded as the fastest living man alive. He possessed a fearsome reputation as a soldier and is described as a master martial arts combatant. He is a practitioner in one of the oldest forms of martial arts in the Dominance Universe, the Path of the Godhand. This combination of bleeding-edge technology, devastating tactical prowess, and his own personal twisted sense of morality makes him a Tier One threat. Jinoga is the primary nemesis of Mugetsu Shinsei.
Serving the alliance as a soldier for many years, when the country wasn't at war, he would offer his services as an instructor at the Gremorion Academy of Gifted Youths to mold the next generation of Alliance metahumans into the perfect soldiers. 
== Appearance ==
Jinoga was a tall human individual with sharp facial features, long black hair tied back into a ponytail, and pale skin with cybernetic eyes. Over the course of his tenure as an Alliance Headhunter he continually augmented his body, gradually replacing more and more of himself as more and more credits rolled into his offshore accounts. 
== Personality ==
Jinoga is a very confident individual who often lets his abilities and actions speak for himself, however, he enjoys playing with his opponents by goading them with verbal quips. Jinoga is not a fan of dying and often flees from combat if the tide turns from his favor. 
Over the course of his military and mercenary career, Jinoga discovered the taboo of cybernetic augmentation and became obsessed with augmentations to his body. Despite his gifts with Aura projections, his desire to perfect his art with the blade has driven him to replace more and more of his body with cybernetics. Losing more and more of his humanity with each piece of himself replaced.
== Abilities ==
* Mach Onslaught - When a punch is thrown by your average metahuman, it tends to be remarkably quick in comparison to the average human being. Jinoga, however, can deliver dozens of blows in the time a normal metahuman throws a single punch. These void-embued, sustained strikes wear down opponents rapidly in a flurry of blows. The speed and volume of the strikes make it difficult to counter unless faced with another speedster.
* Critical Mass Strikers - Gathering gravitational mass at the knuckles of his fist, Jinoga empowers his strikes while moving. Jinoga can only use this ability once he reaches incredibly high speeds, typically STAGE 2 of REDLINE, to utilize this attack. He must also be extremely precise with the placement of his punch.
* Mach Speed - The plating of Jinoga's chassis augments itself to allow the Void Drives to violently project from his body. He moves at such incredible speeds that he is able to traverse over bodies of water seamlessly, and should he strike an object or person at these speeds they could be liquified on impact. This chassis has numerous panels and flaps that open up or shift to aid in direction of movement, as well as allow the intake of massive volumes of oxygen to cool the Void Drive projectors which generate extreme temperatures due to the volume of the energy being projected. This system works thanks to the advanced technology implemented, similar in function to a scramjet, and in order to project Void energy, Jinoga MUST be moving at high speeds to avoid system meltdown.
** REDLINE - Jinoga has the capacity to excel to blinding speeds, this ability acts as the incremental increase in speed at which Jinoga reaches. The REDLINE is a four-stage inhibitor protocol designed to prevent Jinoga from over-working his body, but can be manually overwritten to enable higher speeds. 
*** STAGE 1: The first buffer of speed, engaged when exceeding speeds over Mach 15. Can maintain this speed for hours without risking POS, no real consequences.
*** STAGE 2: Engaged when Jinoga reaches speeds exceeds speeds over Mach 35, at these rates of acceleration Jinoga's kinetic plating begins to generate vast quantities of heat, turning him into a fireball. Jinoga loses most maneuverability in the name of speed, only able to slightly adjust his trajectory. Maintainable for 1 Hour.
*** STAGE 3: The Voidic energy projected from this stage begins to ionize the air around Jinoga, causing the air to glow and bolts of electricity arc around him, reached in excess of speeds over Mach 65. Jinoga's body is pushing its limits, his typically sturdy chassis is more susceptible to damage due to the rapid heating his body is experiencing. Sacrificing durability for speed and power.
*** STAGE 4: !!!DANGER WARNING!!! The last failsafe in Jinoga's body is disengaged and the risks to self-endangerment have never been greater. The amount of speed that is reached and the sheer volume of Voidic energy being produced creates major weather phenomena around Jinoga. Such as magnetic distortion, electronic failure, and unstable weather system formations are some of the various effects STAGE 4 has produced. Jinoga's access to destructive power is uncapped, however, his body is unstable and is easily susceptible to damage and may only function for a limited time.
