Description:
Ken is a fairly normal man to look at, though he bares a muscular but lean build. His bright blond hair is fairly long, and sometimes worn tied back. In combat, he wears a red gi with the sleeves removed. Ken prefers to wear casual clothing more than his counterpart Ryu, however when travelling from classes to his residence he frequently remains in his gi outfit for simplicity, since he is one of many who study and train in the martial arts during some of their classes during education. Masters is brash to the point of arrogance; although when handled correctly he can assume a very serious and solemn learning curve. His true desires are that of good, and aside from his ego there is a golden heart within him. His only real weakness is his arrogance, pride and rage.
Skills:
Obviously, Ken possesses great skills in martial arts or more specifically, Karate (open-handed combat). He can use nunchucks and a bo staff, although he prefers not to use blades or sai. Since his parents are very wealthy, Ken has grown up living with the best training equipment possible and the best lifestyle; which has led to him being skilled at weight work, working out, circuit training and playing the piano. Ken is also quite the athelete, having held three junior titles in track and field sports during his teens. Because of his upbringing, it could also be asserted that his skills in ‘presentation’ and ‘mixing with the cream of the crop’ are fairly high.
Ken knows how to fire a basic hand pistol or revolver, but that is as far as his firearms skills go. In terms of driving, he can drive a small truck or car, but nothing else. Ken’s academic ability is actually pretty good, although he often hides this behind his guise of ‘one of the lads’. Ken has some basic mat wrestling ability, and as far as we know, has no special powers of any kind save one; the ability to channel power into his three fearsome finishing moves (dragon punch, shoryuken & whirlwind kick). Ken has no known mind power, although it has been suggested that the power of the Hadou’s darker side, the dark hadou, could consume him and use him for evil should the right powers be ‘in place’ to make that happen, or his own greed and lust to succeed overtake his spirit.
