Abasi Crow

Lightning

Abasi is the captain of the Storm Sea Pirates. He is a stern man, hardened by the sea, and his crew knows not to disobey him.

Abasi is extremely slow to trust anyone, but specifically humans and elves since those two races make up the majority of slavers.

## Appearance

Abasi has a pitch black coat of feathers, with lavender eyes. He has rather sharp features, with a long, slim beak; his face is accented with various piercings: a ring between his eyes and multiple earrings in each ear. Abasi wears dusty purple, baggy pants that he ties at his mid-calf. He also wears brown boots that reach just above his ankles. He also wears a long faded maroon high-collared trench coat with gold decorations that he balances on his shoulders and doesn't actually put either of the sleeves on. There is also a wide solid bronze circular ring that Abasi wears loosely on his neck.

## History

Abasi was born on a slave ship in the dagaran gulf and grew up forced to work on ships at a small illegal port in Nafa. He had a natural aptitude for learning arts and trained to become more powerful to one day free himself. His slavers actually encouraged his arts training, and as he got stronger they sold him out as a hitman for extra money. He was a proficient hitman with a near perfect record as he only ever failed to kill one target, Sifasi Ogogombi, for which he was severely beaten by his masters. Abasi never allowed them to see how powerful he had really become until the day he broke free, where he decided to start his own pirate crew and become rich and powerful beyond reason.

## Equipment

### Dead Gun

Dead Gun is a long, sleek, black pistol that Abasi carries with him. The barrel of the pistol has flowers engraved into it and the black metal has a purple-ish sheen to it. He named it Dead Gun due to the number of people he has killed with it. Despite its name, the gun is rather normal, albeit stylish.

## Abilities

### Metal Manipulation

Abasi is able to manipulate metal using his earth affinity. He mainly uses it as a form style art in order to create objects to hold his explosive brands.

### Combustion Manipulation

By mixing his fire and lightning affinities, Abasi is able to create combustive explosions. He has formed this manipulation into a character art.

### Explosive Brands

Using his combustion manipulation, Abasi puts glowing orange symbols on objects in order to create explosions. He can detonate the symbols himself remotely, or have them detonate from contact or proximity. He mainly puts these symbols on his metallic creations. Abasi is quite good at utilizing this art and is able to etch the brands quickly into his metal constructs by manipulating the metal itself to create the patterns. This non-contact variation of character arts is extremely rare, albeit limited to metal.

### Techniques

* **Tortoise Bombs -** Abasi creates spike-ball shaped metal objects with his explosive brands. Throwing these bombs creates large explosions upon contact.
* **Plate Mines -** Abasi creates flat metal plates etched with explosive brands that trigger by close proximity. He usually places the mines on the ground but can also throw them like discs, activating the brands in mid-air.
* **Prisoner's Cuffs -** Abasi creates a bracelet made of metal to be placed on an opponent. The bracelet has fine needles that penetrate into the person's skin, and explosive brands on the bracelet are set to explode if energy flow is detected. This technique essentially prevents the use of energy manipulation, because if any technique is detected the brands would explode.
* **Explosive Bullet -** Abasi quickly etches an explosive brand into the bullet in the chamber of his gun before he fires it, creating a deadly surprise attack.
