Dread

Alexander "Dread" Kosmov is an important character in the Record Of Tavern universe. He was known for having conducted a failed yet daring attempt towards constructing a Dyson Sphere, which ended in a catastrophy through which he gained his supernaturality. 
He takes part in the Tournament between Aegis and Pagun, as a fighter for Pagun. He fights Ravenar Watson during the 15th round. 
==Appearance ==
Attire includes a red extremely thin synthetic fiber suit composed with various functions. He wears a helmet with a large visor spanning even over where his hair would have been. He wears a mix of black-yellow long boots followed by two small utility pouches on both legs. The helmet is connected to his suit with numerous pipes and wires, all of which make a continuous hissing sound together. No exposed skin is visible.
==Personality==
Dread has lost much of his older personality, which has been replaced by a new confused and entangled one. There are some moments when his past version comes back to him, owing to some of his humor, pride and ego. Although kind hearted at the core, his methods are usually chaotic and grand for even minor issues.
==Background==
Dread feared an imminent destruction of the world, his fear grew into a goal to be fulfilled, for which the solution he found was building a megastructure that could encapsulate the power of the Sun in mode of energy, which would be supplied back to Earth. This is seen in some theories as the next goal for any civilisation as a whole, and perhaps Dread thought humans were more than ready for the challenge. 
After an year long of construction, when the sphere was constructed, Dread and a group of other engineers, scientists, and doctors arrived at the research center near the Sun. The start of the energy extraction process was bountiful and led to higher hopes. However after an accident from one of the scientist's clumsiness, the Sun started showing uneven spikes of gamma rays which were being pushed out randomly. These gamma rays hit the whole megastructure in a wide arc, destroying all life, except for Dread who was able to survive due to the suit's design and functionalities. However, the suit was deactivated, which led to him being stuck in a motionless state in the research center for more than a month. His wife, the head scientist of the project, was one of the innumerous casualties of the accident. 
After a fortunate strike from a second gamma ray, Dread was able to get control of the suit back, in return for losing his material body. By this, he had been rebirthed as his suit itself. Yet, sadly, Dread woke up to a place reeking of death and tragedy. Finding no other alternative path, Dread killed himself so he could finish a new and different motive through the afterlife. Even though the energy crisis on Earth had been averted by luck, Dread refused to believe the danger had been extinguished. He felt euthanization of humanity as a whole to be the only right choice, as perhaps the second generation of humanity to come may get better odds than the 'torture' that humanity lives in. At least, that is what he believed. 
==Powers & Abilities==
* Heavenly gift: By request from Pagun, Dread was able to gain heightened physical capabilities of unnatural levels. Even without the radiation to aid him, Dread is one mean bastard in battle, who is stronger and quicker than most others.
* WALK suit abilities: Kosmov’s super enhanced suit provides him with various additional functionalities. A few prominent of them are listed
# Free-flow: because Dread no longer has a real body his exo-suit can bend in ways a normal body wouldn’t be able to and can even elongate certain parts in exchange for the shortening of other parts.
# Graveetee: the suit can replicate the 0 gravity environment in a controlled way around Dread for a short while, allowing him slight jumps of flight. This is due to the gamma radiation and the robot’s adaptive ability that allowed it to replicate the 0 gravity environment, however this ability only lasts for 10 seconds at most before the suit gets overloaded and has to fall back down, after which the suit’s other abilities also face backlash for a brief moment.
# Checkup: WALK allows Dread to see weak points in his opponent’s body whenever needed, if no weakness is found it tries to find the closest way to lead towards a weakness.
# Galtej: A burst of jet that  can push Dread straight into the enemy or  pull him back at mach speed.
# Kamelion: Dread can turn himself invisible, through WALK’s adaptive abilities. In his invisible form, his speed is reduced but in return his sound of movement and presence is completely undetectable.
* Solar abilities: Kosmov has a certain control over the radiation that comes from neutron stars and pulsars. Although very loosely bound, some of the more utlised functions of his radiation controlling abilities are listed.
# Raydiation: Alexander’s body is covered in gamma radiation, this is something Dread cannot shut down but in an angered state the suit’s radiation can increase to very high amounts. Because of this radiation’s origin, Alexander’s body is also covered in extremely high temperatures, proving fatal if touched.
# Hand of the Plexus: Dread, through incredible focus is able to control his radiation in a denser form, appearing as if a hand which can move freely and attract or pull only selective objects that Dread may wish to act upon. During this, Dread is not able to move much.
# Singularity: Dread develops extreme density, slowing down his movement but bending space around him as a dying star does, which in turn pulls beings and objects around him at a fast pace. The distance of the spacebending is not tremendous, but its actions are almost instantaneous, although escapable from.
# Borp: Dread can either bring beings far away closer to him, or bring himself closer to his opponents, by manipulating density in the same way he does for controlling the Singularity ability.. The distance by which Borp can act improves after every use.
# Yamaraj: Gamma radiation alternates and shifts matter and energy through its actions and causality. When Dread is able to regain his true self, and fully induce the powers which he considers accursed, only then will Dread realize his own true potential; The potential to reshape and manipulate himself to an extent unknown… What fruit could such an ability bear? Will he re-enact the six arms of his opponent, or become Alexander Kosmov once more…  (the ability eats up his gamma radiation and can potentially deplete it, killing Dread in the process, as the only reason he is alive is because of the radiation still holding him to the suit.)
* Weapons:
# Saber: His secondary weapon. It is a spear-like pole that can extend up to 2 meters. The saber was a safety precaution weapon made mandatory by the space corps for Dread in case of extraterrestrial life. With the help of control nanobots from the WALK Dread enhanced its capabilities, allowing it to hold the radiation. The saber can transform either into a spear or a whip, if caught by Saber the opponent will feel the radiation and will be intoxicated for a short duration.
# Voidgun: a mini pistol, which used to run on bullets but is now powered by condensed radiation which can be shot at incredible speeds. The gun, which is an extension of the suit, is able to withstand the radiation due to having been made from the same material as the WALK suit.
