New character

Just as an extra post, and since I want to get his character written down, meet the next character in my possible future Champions campaign. Same rules as Malice. Feel free to be inspired by this to use him for non-profit, but if he's going to be used for something designed to make a profit, I'd like to be consulted first, and permission gained.

KNIGHT RISEN

History: In Medieval times, there arose the myth of the Noble Knight. Some indeed did personify this myth, those who deserved the title 'nobility'. They were strong, generous souls who took their responsibilities to those beneath them seriously. However, most Knights of ancient times did not embody these chivalrous concepts. They were greedy, caring not for the serfs and peasents beneath them, using them as tools for their own wealth and opulance. As many things did in that time of magic, this less-then-ideal concept became strong enough to gain sentience. Knightly corruption was born and personified, it's physical form that of a Knight in pure black armour, unbeatable in combat and remorseless in slaughter, he became a creature to fear. However, as the idea of 'Knightliness' died, so too did he grow weaker, until in the industrial age he was but a faint spark clinging onto an insubstantial existence.

In the modern age, however, when magic again begins to resurface within the world and there once more comes above the belief there is more to life then what science can explain, the Knight rises, once more. And he feels that without nobility ruling over the lands, he deserves it as a true personification of the Bloodlines of rulers. Woe to anyone who stands in his way.

Personality/Motivation: The Knight Risen is a personification of a concept. He is the corruption of nobility given form. He feels everything he wishes for should belong to him, but not in the manner of the petulant child throwing a tantrum. He just thinks the world is his, and anyone who gets between him and what he wishes for is a thief and should be treated as such.

He speaks of honour, duty and chivilry, but shows no urge to follow it himself. He will chastise an opponent for using anything he considers 'ignoble' tactics, such as ranged weaponry, but will gladly lance an opponent in the back or shoot them with his shotgun himself. Most of the time he feels no need to even speak with his opponent, feeling his actions speak for themselves. Only if someone proves themselves either in combat or of noble birth, will he even lift his visor to speak. Most of the time to demand their surrender, but sometimes to offer them the chance to serve beneath him.

Powers/abilities: As an abstract ideal personified, Knight Risen cannot be killed in the normal means. However, he is not stupid, and if he is outmatched and defeated he will likely flee once he reforms. He has no 'physical' body, only a spectral form that can interact with the physical world, but one that conversely the physical work can interact with. He cannot become intangible, but he can become invisible, although his bike still roars while unseen. Instead of the black steed that needed no food or rest, that he road in the past, in modern times he rides a black motorcycle that needs no fuel and suffers no mechanical faults. Similarly, instead of his black armour he wears black motorcycle leathers that provides more protection then full platemail could. This, combined with his non-physical nature, means that lethal attacks like bullets, blades or knives, are almost useless. There is no substance beneath the leather for the bullet to harm, and blades 'clang' off his hide. Also, as a non-living creature he himself doesn't need food, drink, or rest. He does not age, and even if ripped limb from limb, he will reform nearby within twenty four hours.

Offensively, his spectral status gives him access to a large amount of weaponry, formed from his very substance. Most common for him is a lance tipped with a silver skull with glowing eyes, used in conjunction with his bike in a manner similar to jousting. It's supernatural status gives it the strength it needs to break through a tank's forward armour, when he's going at top speed. As well as that he can form a double-handed warhammer if needed, for unmounted combat, and a new addition to his arsenal is a spectral shotgun that fires flaming slugs. His natural capabilities in combat make him a highly dangerous adversary, which is only heightened by his accumulated skill of centuries.

Appearance: Beneath his motorcycle leathers there exists no form, he is given substance by his outfit. The leathers, including gloves, trousers and boots, cover his entire body up to his neck. His head is covered by a standard motorcycle helmet, with a metal dragon crest standing atop it, similar to how vain knights of old would adorn themselves.
