Dagobert von Anhult

"For the next 180 seconds, you have my complete, undivided attention; talk fast."

- Dagobert's usual spiel to being approached in public.

Appearance
Dagobert is decently tall and decently built as well. He's not a bodybuilder by any definition, but there isn't a lot of body fat either. His dirty blonde hair is usually kept messy and short. A little bit of the side of his right ear has been nicked off. As a python faunus, he has a set of three fangs (reminiscent of those of a Tree Python) in place of his canine teeth.

Like other members of the Von Anhult family, he wears medieval-inspired knights armor. The armor is mainly Grey with Prussian Blue accents. A small Burgundy cape hangs from the back. Even though it looks archaic, the armor is actually rated for Riot Use by LE Agencies across Remnant. composed of Ceramic Trauma plates contained within stabproof semi-flexible polymer plates that form the outside of the suit itself. Underneath all of this is a layer of Kinetic Foam to soften the blow from blunt impacts. The lack of metal makes Dagobert resistant to shock of lightning based attacks.

Personality
When walking down the street, or going about a perfectly normal day, Dagobert wears a face of general indifference until he sees something that sparks his curiosity. Even then, the most expressive part of his face is his eyebrows. Most of the time, he'd rather observe a conversation than enter it. Always cool-headed, he doesn't get caught up in bandwagons, not without reason.

Combat though, isn't exactly the same. Once the adrenaline gets pumping, Dagobert becomes a brutally aggressive swordfighter. He only seeks cover when all other options are no longer viable and relentlessly pushes forwards. "Holding back" isn't in his list of M.O. either, so expect high impact violence with questionable levels of necessity. To quote his younger sister Honara von Anhult, "I'm the Professional, he's the Thug."

Despite being "The Thug", Dagobert's still a decent guy. He claims his methods in combat are to show his adversaries what it's like to face someone as violent as they are. Granted, he's come across of a number of people who aren't intimidated by this sort of display. Either way, to those who "live for the fight" or "do not fear death", he's all too happy to oblige them.

Medusa
This three-bladed sword was constructed by Dagobert himself using the extensive blacksmith shop on his father's estate. It features a 1 meter primary blade and secondary blade of only 40 centimeter length running parallel for parrying and disarming purposes. The third blade is a squared, cleaver-like gunblade with dual alternating 6-shot cylinders that comes off the opposite end of the sword. The gunblade is usually loaded with Gravity rounds for recoil-boosting and Lightning rounds to stun heavier opponents. All three blades have diamond-cutting edges and are constructed of the highest-grade steel alloy available on Remnant.

Close to the end of the primary blade are a set of 9 smaller blades attached to high durability fibers woven like spider silk. These can be split off, turning Medusa into a combination Longsword and Cat o' Ninetails. The part of the primary blade that runs behind the secondary blade has a flamberge-style pattern. The entire sword contains Dust Conduits that tap into the rounds stored in the gunblade's cylinders. Medusa has a third form; a Greataxe with a buzzsaw for a head. This form however, requires Dagobert's shield as a component. Medusa is first attached to the Perseus via the built in scabbard. The entire setup is then detached from Dagobert's arm where it fully transforms on draw. The saw can rotate at 2500 RPM and with the right dust, can slice through anything.

Perseus
A buzzsaw-shield built as a complement/scabbard to Medusa. In addition to being extremely resilient to ballistic damage, Perseus contains a heavily gutted and modified Leighly-Braun Manifold hooked up to a system of Dagobert's design. This manifold is no longer capable of flash-fabricating any sort of dust construct, but its de-construction capabilities are still intact. It serves as the heart of Perseus's main use; absorption of direct-dust attacks. Perseus can release this absorbed energy in a short-ranged pulse or use it to charge Medusa when the sword is inserted.

Semblance
Retaliate: Dagobert generates a Maelstrom shaped rune from his free hand. This rune attracts and absorbs incoming projectiles and directed dust attacks, suspending them only a few centimeters from him. If held for more than 30 seconds, the blast will fire off on its own, assuming Dagobert has not overloaded it. He can then fire this blast off, but it has an effective range of only 15 meters. Retaliate is also a very risky semblance; while it can absorb and hold 200% of what his aura can withstand, an overflow will cause the absorbed projectiles and dust to detonate right in his face.
