Character name: Fortis, The Unbreakable
Character source: Original
Character history:
Fortis comes from a universe stuck in what earth knew as "the dark ages." He was from a poor family that lived in a small village outside of their countries capital, whose living conditions were surprisingly worse than his own due to overpopulation. His father had to visit the capital often due to his job as a farmer, which required that he went to the markets to sell what food he could. This never really made sense to Fortis, why would they need to sell food so that they could buy more food? He didn't know of taxes or anything like that, but even if he did, he would likely just suggest they move somewhere without them.
One day, his father came back speaking of a knight he met that offered his assistance to pay for taxes. It was certainly rare for knights to speak to peasants such as them, but his father didn't doubt the man at all. His father told Fortis how interested the knight was in him, and that he would very much like to meet him one day. This confused Fortis, but his father explained that he told the knight how hard working and strong he was for his age.
Little did he know, the knight didn't want to simply "meet" him, he wanted to take him on as a squire. When the knight finally met with the family months after meeting his father, and asked for permission to take Fortis. The request was denied almost immediately, but the knight did not give up. And argument took place, and continued for a good half hour before the knight drew his sword and slaughtered Fortis' family without warning.
"You're mine now..." These words would be engraved into his mind for years to come, as he was forced to become a squire to the man that killed the ones he loved. He served under him for years until he was finally granted knighthood. The years Fortis spent as a squire were ones that were undeniably enjoyable. He met many other squires and met many friends that continued to be just that for most of his life, but the pain of losing his family still remained.
He was looked up to by many squires, and respected by other knights, but just about everyone had one huge problem.. Never in his life did he kill someone. This would likely be something that someone would respect, but his life as a knight and participation in many wars made people see him as strange. The reason blood never touched his blade, was that his only goal on the battle field was to defend his comrades. There were often times where he would even leave his blade behind and rush into battle with only a shield to defend himself and others with. The only reason others respected him, was that he saved many famous knights, and even more grunts, from deadly situations.
Another surprising thing about him, was that no one has ever been able to beat him in a fight. Every time he was challenged, he won by lasting longer than his opponent, making them wear themselves out until finally giving in. This caused others to give him the epithet, "The Unbreakable," which he wears with pride.
Physical Description: Fortis is never seen without his armor, even when sleeping. He refuses to remove it for unknown reasons, and the only piece he can be seen without is his helmet. He is much taller than most people from his time, standing at 6ft'3in and weighing 245 pounds without his armor. His muscle mass also makes him very large. Underneath his helmet, his face has very strong features, a square jaw, angled ears, and large nose. His hair is dark brown, and is normally shoulder length and kept neat. His armor is a darker red, with spikes coming from the shoulders. Fortis is currently without weapons or a shield, and uses whatever powers he has created in the omniverse to protect himself.

Starting Moves:
-Shield: Partially transparent orb that instantly forms around the user after after lifting their hand up. Blocks smaller scale melee and ranged attacks and only lasts for a split second, forcing the user to time it perfectly to avoid being damaged. Only large enough to hold the user. (300 OM)
-Fortress (Requires Area Shield Proficiency): User forms a large transparent orb around themselves and any allies within 5 feet of the user. The move is used in the same way as shield, but takes 3 seconds to create. Unlike shield, this move lasts 10 seconds, but still only blocks smaller attacks such as other basic moves and prevents people from entering or leaving. (600 OM)
Super Moves
-Strong Shield (Tier 1): Same as shield, but much stronger. User raises hand and focuses all of their power into their defensive abilities. This allows them to block some of the strongest of attacks, such as other tier 1 supers. (600 OM)
