History/Background: Orphaned at a very young age with only a mysterious sword he had no clue how to use, Liam has learned how to fend for himself by the typical street rat fashion: Stealing. As he grew up in the forgotten areas of his home- he found more and more kids who were just like him- alone and hungry. As the oldest one out of them, he took on the responsibility of taking care of them when he was only 14 years old. Despite this making his life harder (and his little thieving trips becoming more of a struggle as he had to steal more for the group)- he managed to do so without any complaint.
Due to this, however, he limited his own needs and ate only when he absolutely had to in order to ensure his younger 'siblings' had enough to survive. When a bandit (who he referred to as a 'professional') attacked a civilian, Liam instinctively attacked the professional. Having won the fight, the civilian decided to help him out by bringing the entire 'family' to an orphanage. Liam, however, was the only one who refused (much to the chagrin of his younger siblings), as at that time he believed that it was too late for him to be guided through the world. He returned to his street urchin life, but not before being given a star-shaped jewel for good luck.
Name:Liam Echo
Alignment/Affiliation- Neutral (so far)
Age-17
Race- Human
Appearance-
Personality- Having been thrown away and forgotten by society, Liam never learned how to make any real friends- his 'siblings' being the exception due to their similar background. Despite having never been educated or exposed to anything normal kids would have been- he has gained more than his fair share of knowledge on the streets and is sometimes considered a natural genius.
Regardless of his lack of regard for the world's affairs or his lack of social exposure- he has the ingenuity to form groups for a common cause [as demonstrated by him bringing orphaned children together to make a little family]. He also has a sense of honor- having been the only one to refuse assistance from an orphanage with the belief that he was no longer the age where he needed that 'easy way'.
Abilities- Shockwave- As the name says, Liam fires a small but solid wall of invisible energy at his adversary more or less to get some 'breathing room', but if used correctly- he can wreak all sorts of havoc.
Weapons- Echobreaker: A blade that seems to get stronger the more damage the user has taken
