Special Abilities
- Enhanced Reflexes/Strength/Endurance: Despite his appearance, Johny is quite powerful. Faster than the average human by quite bit, he is generally able to move his limbs and body in the blink of an eye, in the past able to catch arrows in his hand as they fly at him, as well as being able to jump much further than his frame would deem appropriate. Along with this, his strength is far beyond normal humans. At his worst, he's able to easily lift upwards of ten tons. As far as endurance is concerned, he can take quite the beating before needing to leave a fight.
- Advanced Regeneration: Johny's naturally chaotic nature should have left him quite dead sometime ago... Fortunately for him, however, his body seems able to recover rapidly most wounds, leaving him quite able to survive nearly any situation.
- Sharpened Fangs: Unlike most other feral mutants, Johny doesn't rely on claws or his nails in combat... Rather, when he needs a blade and doesn't have one handy, he'll rely on his naturally sharpened teeth, able to rip through the flesh of nearly any opponent... In extreme circumstances, tusk-like teeth will protrude from his lower jaw, which he can impale enemies on.
- Combat Trained: During his years wandering, Johny sought training from several different combat 'specialists'... In his training, he became proficient in the use of various bladed weapons, as well as quite skilled in the use of most conventional firearms and explosives... He's also something of a master in a few forms of martial arts, though he generally relies on his instincts in hand-to-hand combat, making him somewhat unpredictable.
- Untraceable: When Johny doesn't want anyone to find him, no one is going to be able to find him. Without concentrating on his powers, his body naturally muffles any noise he himself would make, such as foot falls or breathing, and his body gives off no scent of it's own. Along with this, his body naturally has no heat signature, and on the off chance that he gets cut, his blood quickly disappears. Along with this, with great concentration, Johny can wholly remove any signs of his existence. Akin to being surrounded in emptiness, when Johny employs this power, nothing he does makes noise, including opening/closing doors, nothing on him gives off a scent, even smoke from cigarettes, and himself and everything on himself, or that comes from him or something he's holding becomes invisible. However, when concentrating on this power, he can do nothing offensive, and the only multi-tasking he's capable of is getting information he may be seeking.
- Perfect Aim: Along with his venerable combat training, the only sense of Snaggletooth's that appears to have been naturally enhanced is his sight. With eyesight comparable to that of an Eagle, he's quite capable of hitting the smallest of targets dead on, often using this to take victims out slowly and painfully, targeting painful shots from miles away, leaving them slowly bleeding out as he moves in to finish his work.
- Perfect Health: Thanks in large part to his regenerative capabilities, and in small part to great will power, Snaggletooth seems immune to all diseases, terrestrial or not. While seemingly not a big deal, it makes the use of biological warfare against him wholly ineffective. It also leaves immune to the ill effects of all poisons and toxins.
- Vibranium Laced Skeleton: Snaggletooth's entire body is laced with the metal known as vibranium, one of the strongest metal's known to Earth, due to it's unique properties of absorbing noise and kinetic energy. The more it absorbs, the stronger it becomes, though it does have limits, which are much lower than average vibranium. The vibranium used to lace his skeleton was of a diluted sort... It's believed to be strong enough to handle several blows from average strength individuals before being overloaded, though, the stronger the fighter, the quicker it will overload Johny's skeleton. Due to this, Johny actually prefers to avoid fist fights or close combat with opponents, using close combat only for those he deems weaker than himself, and using the vibranium skeleton more to absorb impacts from high falls.
Weaknesses
- Regeneration-Cancelling Weapons: There are several metals created for the soul purpose of counteracting healing factors... That given, a cut from a blade such as that would not instantly heal, and... Receiving too much damage from material like that would eventually leave him dead...
- Psychic Attacks: Despite his great physical prowess, Johny has no way to defend himself against psychic assaults, leaving him quite easily defeated by folks able to assault his mind. As well, psychics are the only kind of people that Snaggletooth can't hide himself from using his untraceable powers. Due to this, Snaggletooth generally shows contempt for all psychics.
- Electricity: Any form of electric attack will quickly drain Johny of his reserve energy... While not outright leaving him dead, it will cause him to become greatly slowed and sluggish, until he can build his reserves back up, generally through massive amounts of food.
- Energy/Heat/Cold/Magic/Force: Johny has no defense against attacks utilizing any form of energy or magic. While it wouldn't leave him instantly dead or crying for mercy, he has no defense against them and would quickly find himself outmatched facing multiple opponents using these kinds of attacks.
Brief History [Spoilers][/size]
Growing up the child of fairly average parents, Johny Rose was always a decently quiet kid, rarely showing disrespect to his elders, and always playing kindly with his neighbors. When he reached puberty, and his mutant abilities first manifested, Johny initially hid them, worried that if anyone found out he'd be expelled from school, and even sent to prison, for being a monster.
For the next several years, Johny maintained this life, pretending he had no powers, learning to control his tusks in secrecy to ensure they'd never appear in public, for as long he kept his true self hidden, nothing bad would happen to him or his family. Or, at least, that was what he'd convinced himself.
When he came home from college on his twenty-second birthday to find his parents brutally murdered, and the phrase 'Parasites' scrawled across the wall in their blood, Johny realized he'd been wrong... He'd never used his powers, had always been behaved, and had always cared for everyone around him, like a good man was supposed to... And his reward was to find that some lunatic had broken free of local police custody and murdered his family...
While the cops dragged the shocked and upset Johny from his home, something in him changed... The realization that, despite being a good man his family still got killed made him realize that nothing mattered... He could be a saint, or he could be the devil himself, and it wouldn't change anything... No matter who he was, or what he did... He'd never really have a say in how things turned out...
Deciding that his powers weren't a gift, or a curse... But, just what they were, extra abilities, Johny decided to start using them for his own gain, becoming something of a mercenary for several years, wandering from town to town, doing little jobs for the nice people, thinking that even if he couldn't make the world a better place, he could still be a good man...
But, even that dream didn't last long... In the silence of the night, after having met a beautiful woman who actually seemed to genuinely enjoy his company, despite having seen his powers, Johny thought that, for once since his parents death, everything was right in the world...
When he woke up a month later in a lab facility in the middle of Texas surrounded by men he didn't know, he finally realized there was no point in being decent... Not at all, as good as he tried to be, nothing but bad came to him...
Accepting this, Johny embraced the idea that if he couldn't save the world, why not work for the corruption it was? Escaping the facility proved easy enough, given his ability to make himself completely undetected... After getting out, Johny became something of an assassin and spy, working for the lowest of the low, treating them with the same level of respect he once saved for the best the world had to offer...
Since that revelation, Johny has stabilized somewhat... He still doesn't believe there's any point in helping the world... But, he's willing to make friends, now... If only with the same kind of scum he turned himself into... After all, if nothing else, they at least understood that there was no point in looking for more from humanity...

Sample Role-Play Post[/size]
Sitting at the barstool, Johny Rose waited for his drink. He'd only been seen in the bar for a few minutes, but, he'd been waiting there all day... He'd been hired by some guy known as Moralez to take out a snitch, who frequented this hellhole...
A few hours of concentrating on not being seen, and Johny's patience paid off... The kid he was waiting for walked up to the bartender and ordered his drink. Johny had appeared in the middle of a crowd, avoiding detection, and walked up to the bar himself, sitting down next to the kid and ordering himself a scotch on the rocks.
"So, kid... Sources tell me ya done pissed off some guy, Moralez?" Johny began, as he took a sip from his bottle. Looking up with fear, the worthless rat shook his head yes, not caring who since he'd been promised police escorts. "Yeah... Well, I'mma do ya a favor, kid... See, I been hired ta kill ya by this Moralez fella... I'll give ya ten seconds ta git out that door, 'fore I come after ya..." Looking at his watch, then back at the dumbfounded kid, Johny winked before saying more, "Best start runnin', boy... I ain't gonna have no hard time if ya ain't out the door in eight seconds, now..."
As soon as he'd said that, the kid took off running from the stool, as Johny took out his favorite pistol, and finished the countdown. Without leaving the seat, Johny held out his hand, turned his head for a split second, and fired one round straight into the back of the kid's head, soon as he hit the door. Dropping enough money on the table to cover his drink, the kid's, and some extra, Johny winked at the bartender before making a comment about the fate of his target. "You 'eard me tell him he had ten seconds, right?... He shoulda used all ten... Woulda had a better chance..."
Before the bartender had the chance to dial nine one one, Johny had seemingly disappeared into thin air, and when the cops arrived, the only sign that Johny had existed at all was the body he left behind...
