Kobe Bryant

Kobe Bryant

**Kobe Bryant**

**Names/Nicknames:** Kobe 'Bean' Bryant, The Black Mamba

**Roleplay Origin:** Kobe Bryant showed up from the ground one day. It was the ground 100 yards from the inn. He attempted to knock on the door but left do to a huge fight. He then dug a massive and complex tunnel system under the island that has unexplored areas within it.

**Personality:** He is often serious and also polite much of the time. Despite this he doesn't like to back down from a fight ever. His mentality is to win. In high pressure situations he enters a special state in his mind which allows him to stay calm, lose feeling, and only have his goal in his eyes.

**Abilities:** He always has a weaponized basketball at hand. This is his only weapon. The ball feels like leather but is made from an unpopable substance found in the caves. Kobe has put poison in the ball which can poison opponents if thrown with enough force. It also functions like a regular basketball. Kobe's physical abilities include super high jumping ability (50 inch vertical) and he is very strong so he can throw powerful passes. Most of his abilities are, however, mental. He can enter a state known as the mamba mode. This mode is the other half to his mamba mentality. In this state he hears and feels nothing but what is useful to him. He stays only focused on the task ahead and has the uncanny ability to not miss any attack he throws in this mode. The other half of his mamba mentality mentioned earlier is his 6th sense. This allows him to feel when something bad is about to happen or something powerful has arrived.
