Canon: There's no wiki description SO--
In this version of Japan, artificial intelligence has become highly advanced. Initially this was only used to assist in the medical field, but when it was discovered how quickly these intelligences were able to develop, and report more accurately than humans, this technology was expanded to encompass other fields as well. Hiden Intelligence was the leading corporation behind the development of this A.I., and quickly rocketed into popularity for its development of synthetic A.I. androids that were nearly indistinguishable from humans, known as Humagears, and being a pivotal company behind the development of Daybreak Town - a test city where humans and Humagear would be able to live together in harmony.
Unfortunately, the satellite networking all of the Humagears in Daybreak Town, was corrupted by floods of malicious imagery (humans torturing each other, going to war, causing each other intense suffering, that sort of thing) and achieved sentience - while also deciding that humanity deserved to be completely destroyed. All of this was shared with the Humagears, who went berserk and tried killing everyone in the city. The four most intelligent Humagears retained their own personal sentience, and became the cyber-terrorist group Metsuboujinrai.net; these Humangears broke into the Humagear factory to take control and infect the androids there. While this was successful, the head of the Humagear factory had also been evacuating citizens through the factory, and when he was the last person left, shut the factory gates and blew up all of the Humagears still linked to the factory - and the nuclear reactors were detonated. This entire incident, with its incredible collateral damage, extensive casualties and minimal survivors, became known as the Daybreak Town Incident; and was swept under the rug, officially reported as an accident.
The events of the show are set twelve years later, in 2019, and focuses on the resurgence of Metsuboujinrai.net and the actions of Hiden Intelligence, A.I.M.S. and ZAIA as they interact with Humagears, capitalism and underground racketeering.
Canon Point: Episode 32.
Point of departure: What was your character up to before they came here? If this is for a pre-existing Midpoint character, describe what they've been up to while they've been here. If you have CRAU or previous game experience, please list it here!
History: Little is know about his childhood before the age of 15, but it can be assumed he had a fairly typical Japanese childhood, and at some point lived in Daybreak Town. During this time was when ARK went insane and attempted to destroy the town: Fuwa's primary memory of this is of corrupted Humagears swarming his school, killing his classmates, and chasing him away from the scene, where he somehow made it out of Daybreak Town alive.
At some point in his twenties he joined A.I.M.S., the Artificial Intelligence Military Service created to destroy rogue Humagears, and rose to become a commanding officer (likely a lieutenant) in charge of his own squadron and under the supervision of Yua Yaiba, a captain and technical advisor who created the Shotriser system.
Personality: RAGE
Skills and Abilities: Kamen Rider Vulcan: Fuwa's main power is the ability to turn into the Kamen Rider Vulcan - an armoured form in which he is able to fight at a highly increased capacity, boosting his endurance, strength, aim and overall abilities, and is even able to help compensate for prior injuries while in use. These suits are unlocked by taking one of the following Progrise Keys and inserting it into the ShotRiser.Shooting Wolf. His base form. Primarily specialised for long-ranged combat, with heavy emphasis in its design for minimising recoil, built-in radar and an enhanced range of vision (this is all explicitly canon i wish i was making this up), but instead he keeps punching people with it. Punching Kong. THIS is his primary close-range form - it has a marked increase in physical strength and is able to take shots from a tank, but speed is massively reduced. He can use the gauntlets, known as Knuckle Demolition, as targeted missiles.
Weapons involved with the suit are:A.I.M.S. ShotRiser. A handgun designed by ZAIA Enterprise, which works as a typical handgun but also allows Fuwa to transform into his Vulcan armour, depending on which Progrise Key is inserted. Attache Shotgun. A shotgun that can also transform into an suitcase shape for convenient carrying.
> Marksmanship: Fuwa is shown to be an extremely good shot with handguns at both close and long range.
> Combat Specialist: While he doesn't seem to have a specific fighting style, Fuwa is shown to be highly capable at military-inspired close-range combat. He's never run into a fight with an actual plan, yet despite this he is fully capable of adapting on the fly and coming out successful.
> Peak Physical Condition: As part of a paramilitary unit, Fuwa is at the top of his game in regards to his fitness. He's also shown to be able to unlock the Progrise keys he uses despite his lack of authority through sheer force, something that's allegedly impossible.
Inventory: The Shotriser, Shooting Wolf and Punching Kong Progrise keys, and his wireless earpiece.
Anything else?: In the microchip in Fuwa's brain, there is an entire rogue Humagear - one of the original Metsuboujinrai members, Naki. Until recently they were dormant, until activated by ZAIA and Metsuboujinrai to remotely control Fuwa's body in order to commit crimes. Since Naki now had achieved Singularity (sentience and total independence), they cannot be hacked or controlled, but are still capable of interacting wirelessly with technology: fir example, corrupting live video feed. They are also still capable of using Fuwa's body, albeit only with his permission; to do otherwise is extremely painful for Fuwa.
Samples: Not required, but useful for us to get a handle on how your character actually acts. Preferably 5-10 comments, prose preferred but not required!
