Athena Bronze Saint Pheonix Ikki
Alias: Ikki Kiddo
Looks: Ruggedly handsome, and shaggy hair actually looks good on him.
Favors a little tearing on his clothes, you won't get him into formal wear too
often.
Smarts: Way smarter than anyone kicked in the head as a kid as often as
he
was has a right to be. Tends to pick his battles, and studies his opponents, often
waiting
until they've been softened up.
Personality: Aggressive, rather ruthless. Stubborn to the point of
breaking rather than bending, and very protective of his brother. Perhaps a little
overconfident, especially under Ares' control, but learned to mute this after Cygnus'
little
trick.
Cooking: Death Queen Island was a big camp, as I understand, (all the
Ares
Saints trained there too) so they probably had some sort of centralized mess tent. But
given Ikki's master's training methods, he probably made him live on grubs and roots for
long stretches too. Ikki can probably subsist on less and worse food than the other
Saints,
and might even survive C-ko's cooking.
Fighting Skills: Excellent. Makes up in ferocity what finesse doesn't
cover. (Remember, "fighting skill" is separate from "special abilities", which is why I
rated Shun so low in the former. He must have had some hand-to-hand training, but he
never
uses it in the episodes I've seen.)
Special Abilities: Too many to conveniently number, most dealing with
fire, illusion and death. (Including the ability to come back to life as needed.) The
Phoenix Cloth has throwing feathers, but Ikki uses these rarely, and usually to announce
his
presence. Ikki seems to have better stealth than the other Bronze Boys, and has
personal
experience dealing with mind-warping powers.
Competition: His dead girlfriend, maybe Pandora. It's unlikely
(Esmeraude?) will be coming back to life, but since she died just as he realized he
loved
her, she'll stay perfect forever. Dunno about Pandora...
In-Laws: Shun, and if the adoption really went through, the rest of the
Saints. Shun's a likable sort, though he'll be protective of his big brother's
happiness.
Economics: Bodyguard (and adoptive brother) to a multi-billionaire. (I
don't think the boys really understand that they should be in line for some big bucks.)
May
have other means of support; he often disappears for long periods.
Sex: Well, that depends on what kind of sex education program they had
on
Death Queen Island. If none, I see Ikki as an adherent of the "harder, faster and
stronger
is better" school. If they did, it might go something like this... ("Now remember,
women
like this foreplay sh*t, so be sure to slap the b*tch around a little bit before you
tear
her clothes off. And if she isn't having internal bleeding, then she's not really
satisfied.") Ikki would reject this of course, and be a little inhibited until his
lover
showed him what women really want.
Overall: Not my first choice, but if you want a man who will track
anyone
who hurts you to the ends of the earth and kill them slowly and painfully, Ikki is your
man.
