Lazure Tygrys

"I'm gonna have some fun with this Fight....."

Lazure Tygrys is a 17-year old Male Student attending Beacon Academy. A Free-flowing Jack-of-all-trades, Lazure was pushed into learning how to become a Hunter by his Parents after a 'once in a blue moon' incident  involving Grimm at the age of 10 caused his latent talents to come to the surface in front of his Hunter Parents.

Appearance
With a fit, lithe build and medium-length Silver-blue hair to complement his hazel eyes, Lazure is an average-looking kind of guy. No noticeable scars are present on his body, and his features are unremarkable most of the time. Lazure's School uniform is identical to standard uniforms aside from some blue highlights on the shirts and a red suit vest underneath. Lazure's casual outfit often consists of a tan long-sleeve T-shirt and a pair of casual black dress pants with white tennis shoes. For colder days, he often brings a black leather jacket and pair gloves that used to belong to his dad along with him. For Combat Attire, he adds a lightweight Curiass and a set of Greaves to complement his outfit.

Personality
Lazure generally goes with the flow, and is an easy-going, easy-talking, somewhat-boastful guy off the battlefield, but a swift, determined and calculative fighter when push comes to shove, fighting with a ferocity that some onlookers have called ‘ A fearful symmetry’. Lazure enjoys sparring, spending his free time doing either physical training or stargazing, hoping to keep his knowledge and skill of both as sharp as his humor. However, Lazure is very protective of people he considers family, and could be swayed to do more unethical acts if he perceives that they are in danger or can benefit from the situation.

Combat
Lazure's Weapon is a pair of ‘Multiform Ballistic Blade-Fists’ (MBBF) nicknamed as the 'Selenic Tygers' '. ' These Highly-customized weapons take the form of large, pale-blue metal gauntlets when not in use. When in use, however, a pair of extendable  sword blades (similar in design to a katana) extend towards the hands of each arm, the blades being capable of going up to 12 inches past the hands to allow cutting when used in hand to hand combat. Additionally, the gauntlets have semiautomatic firearm mechanisms built in them, allowing Lazure to fire pistol-grade dust-powered rounds (They have a Magazine Capacity of 12 for each hand) from the barrel built onto the wrists. And finally, the blades of the gauntlets can combine and detach, with each hands’ blades making a Japanese-style sword with an adjustable blade length of up to 36 inches (3 Feet). Being a well-balanced fighter, Lazure is capable (but not excelling) at fighting in hand to hand, with a sword, or fighting at range. Lazure’s fighting tactics focuses on various ‘Styles’ of fighting, in which he fights using different weapon combinations and tactics, often switching up his fighting styles on the go in a fight, allowing for unparalleled adaptability.

 * Fighting Style



‘New Claw’: This is often his starting style, using his weapons in their ‘Claw’ (Extended blades on the sides of his arms) Form. In this style, He fights martially, using a varied amount of mixed martial arts to disarm and incapacitate opponents, or to brutally cripple and kill Grimm. Chances are if his opponent fights hand-to-hand, he’ll use this style to match. [This Style is High-Damage/Medium Speed/Short-Range].

‘Full Fang’: This style of fighting uses the Selenic Tygers in their ‘Fang’ (Deployed Sword) form, giving him a dual-wielding form much more capable of crowd control using spinning and sweeping attacks to rend and tear with gusto. Often, this style is used for fighting other dual wielding foes, large crowds or, or against opponents wielding heavy weapons. [This Style is Medium-Damage/Low  Speed/Medium Range]

‘Waning Fang’: This Style is a ‘half-and-half Style’. Using one arm in Fang Form, while the other hand can be in Claw Form, This style is often used against smaller, stronger crowds or other non-dual wielding foes. This Style incorporates martial arts to work in tandem with the Fang Form, giving a style capable of mixing and matching that is highly adaptable and unpredictable. [This Style is Medium Power/Medium Speed/Medium Range]

‘Waxing Claw’ : This style is different from the others, in that while the Claw Form is used, it’s not the primary focus. This style focuses on ranged attacks and maneuverability, using the built-in guns of Lazure’s Selenic Tygers to make space or damage from afar before moving to a more close range style. [This Style is Low Power/High Speed/Long Range] Lazure’s semblance is the ' Semblance of Counter-Reflection', which he often calls " Retroflection". When in use, Lazure is surrounded by wispy strands of light (which doesn’t look dissimilar to running water), and when Lazure is attacked while in use, the light shines briefly before blasting outwards, dealing the damage that would be dealt to him would instead be dealt back to the attacker at equal force. The main drawback is that Lazure must remain still (or moving slowly) to use this, and extensive use of Retroflection will exhaust Lazure.

History
"Luck is like a Blue Moon...."

Lazure grew up as an average kid, the second child of three. From an early age, he looked up to his father and mother, who both were lifelong Hunters and avid hobby astrologers, often looking up to see the moon. However, while the parents were skilled Hunters, it seemed that none of their kids inherited their prowess. Dismayed but not disappointed, they trained their kids personally, enrolling them into the right preparatory schools and hoping they would show their prowess sooner or later…..

However, one day, during a full mooned night, A 10-year Lazure and his brothers played in a forest near his house. His parents busy working that night, so when a stray Ursa attacked the boys while their parents were on the way home, The unprepared boys ran in fear.

<p class="MsoNormal">Eventually, The Ursa cornered them, and heavily wounded his older and younger brothers, rooting Lazure with fear for his life when it stared at him with soulless eyes. In that moment, something unlocked inside him, and in a display Fight-or-flight, Lazure glowed with a blindingly bright Aura and decimated the Ursa in a flurry of blows, throwing the fading body away from him and his siblings. In that moment, his parents happened upon the scene of carnage.

<p class="MsoNormal">While the other two siblings recovered at a nearby hospital, Lazure was pulled aside by his parents. Worried, but impressed at his display of Aura, His parents signed him up for Hunter training at the nearby Signal Academy, while his siblings, both having lost a limb in the fateful fight, went into the regular education systems.

Trivia
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%">
 * Lazure is a slight corruption on the Polish word for Blue/Azure (lazur), His Middle name (Mesiac) is the Polish word for 'Moon', and His last name (Tygrys) is the Polish word for 'Tiger'. So, literally, Lazure's full name means 'Blue Moon Tiger'.
 * Lazure is inspired by the 1974 William Blake poem 'The Tyger', as well as the Lunar Phases experienced by the moon. This is shown by his backstory (burning bright in a forest of the night) His weapons (Which are two weapons with the word Tyger in each), while the Lunar phases are shown through his Fighting Style (New Moon, Full Moon, Waxing (Moon coming into view), Waning (Moon coming out of view)) and his younger brother (Whose name, Gibbus, is one letter away from gibbous, a name for part of the Lunar Phase). These two factors are alluded to in his Title, 'The Lunar Tiger'.
