General Appearance: Zephi, at a first glance, could easily be described as a punk or a delinquent. His messy, unkempt hair in combination with his cocky yet infectious grin is usually enough to send people this message. He carries himself with his head held high and walks with a sense of confidence and purpose. Though he's not the tallest of people, he's by no means short, a little bit above average as far as height goes. Even through his clothes it's clear to see his frame is quite boxy and muscular, with broad shoulders and a bit of a stocky torso. Despite his mixed heritage, his skin is usually on the paler side, though he can still tan fairly easily. Despite the fact he may look and dress like a delinquent, he has quite the lovable face. It's rare you ever catch him without a big smile, his facial features strong and pronounced.
| Clothing: It's very easy to describe Zephi's style as fashionably punk. On his torso, he usually wears a tank top or some sort of tight graphic tee shirt, though it's usually partially covered by an over sized sweatshirt or leather jacket. Something Zephi often does, especially if he's doing some kind of physical activity, is fasten the collar button of a jacket around his neck, but take his arms out of the sleeves and let the jacket hang behind him. For pants, he usually wears ripped jeans, but it's not uncommon to see him done a pair of leather pants. For shoes, he'll typically wear either slip ons or some form of high top sneaker. Though he doesn't always do so, he does enjoy accessorizing with beanies, flat brim caps, and sometimes a chain or two snapped onto his pants. His outfits are usually mostly monochromatic with a splash of color somewhere, typically the hat or shoes.
Though currently he doesn't don it very often, he does possess a disguise, even if it's very simple. It merely consists of a long sweatshirt that covers his neck, a hood that he fastens around his neck with a pair of cat ears adorning the top, and a bandanna like mask with the mouth of a cat on it.
| Personality: Even if his initial appearance may not say so, Zephi is a friend to just about everyone. He's relentlessly kind, and always loves picking people up when they're down. Putting a smile on someone else's face will never fail to put an even bigger smile on his own. It doesn't matter how bad of a day your having, for Zephi will always do everything in his power to lift your spirits. He's always filled with words of encouragement and never takes a break from trying to push and support those around him, especially his close friends. His biggest flaw, however, is his temper. Though it's not necessarily easy to set him off, he does have one thing that makes him unrelenting angry. If he ever sees someone picking on someone weaker or pushing someone around, he simply can't stand for it. Zephi will always throw himself into a conflict to stand up for someone, stranger or not. He feels as though all wrong-doers and villains deserve though mercy, and will never let up until the fight is done.
As far likes go, he enjoys food and has a massive appetite, his favorite being vegetables, pasta, and just about anything that's fried. He's typically too excitable to sit down and watch movies for too long, unless they're action packed or have a deep story he can invest himself in. He's never been one to sit down and read books, but he has found a few that manage to hold his attention. However, music is his greatest passion of all, and though he enjoys being a vigilante, he hopes to one day make a living off of his own music.

History:
History: Zephi was born into a fairly normal life, to an American father and a Japanese mother. His life was by no means glamorous, but his parents managed to get by okay. The small family lived in the heart of New York City, but the trio usually kept to themselves, holing up in their little apartment and spending time together as a family. His father was an aspiring writer who sought to capture the hearts of millions of readers, though in the meantime he worked long hours at a publishing company. His mother had a wonderful voice, and though she had the beginnings of a successful career, had to decided to settle down with the man she loved and start a family. Though they never had a lot of extra money, Zephi never had to want for anything. They always had plenty of food on the table, and Zephi always had plenty of little hero action figures or toy cars to supply his demands. However, though he did enjoy his toys, he was also quite content with just running around. Despite being an incredibly hyper young child, his mother could always calm him down with a song, and soothe the beast right to sleep.
Zephi's outgoing personality and naturally optimistic outlook left him with no shortage of friends. From preschool all the way up until now, he always had a friend or two to enjoy time with. His amount of friends only seemed to increase when his quirk manifested at age five, causing his friends to think he was even cooler and more exciting to be around. Though rather than letting it go to his head, he just tried his best to use his popularity to bring happiness to others. He kept a welcoming and friendly smile on his face and made sure no one was left out. He also used his status among his classmates to try and stop any and all bullying. Though he lacked control over his quirk at the time, he needed no control to look intimidating. However, he would never allow himself to resort to violence. Not yet, anyways.
Around the time Zephi was 12 years old, there was an infamous individual that went by the moniker "Specter", who roamed the streets of New York at night. The nature of his quirk seemed to let him meld into the shadows, leaving many heroes unable to stop him when he suddenly appeared after the sun had gone. Seemingly, there was no pattern to his attacks, for he had both attacked men and women of different backgrounds, leaving many of them dead in his wake. Though they captured a very likely suspect, they had no compelling evidence to convict him of his crimes and were forced to let him go after a few days.
The next night, his mother was a little late getting out of work at a nearby convenience store. Zephi never saw his mother alive again.
For a very long time, two years in fact, his smile disappeared. The soothing voice and comforting embrace of the mother he loved so much was gone. Taken away by a man who sought nothing more than bringing pain and suffering to the lives of others. He felt so helpless and empty without such a big part of his life missing. He couldn't bring himself to smile, and therefore couldn't even begin to make anyone else smile. His father was devastated as well, the two would often spend hours reminiscing or crying together, for their little family was nothing without her. However after two years, his sadness was replaced with anger. After the death of his mother, the authorities had never been able to track down that previous suspect again. Zephi was convinced that was the guy. They could have stopped the man who killed his mother, but instead they let him go.
Zephi was then forced to bounce from school to school, getting himself expelled for fighting too often. Filled with a rage he couldn't quite funnel into anything useful, he let it out on anyone who even slightly irked him. He sent many of his classmates to the nurse's office, and a handful to the hospital as well. The boy seemed to be at a constant boiling point, ready to explode if someone looked at him the wrong way. After about a year of this, he found and old recording of his mother singing. It was her first and only album, the one that could have easily jump started her wildly successful career, He would play it over and over and over, just to hear her voice again. He realized this wasn't what his mother would have wanted for him. He realized that his mother wouldn't want him to take his anger out like this on many people who never even deserved it. Even from beyond the grave, her voice had managed to soothe him one last time.
Though the boy has still kept his delinquent status, he's managed to channel his energy into something far more enjoyable than fighting, that thing being music. Though not as typically refined and beautiful as his mother's voice was, he still had a natural singing talent in him. He channeled most of his ruthless energy into practicing instruments and honing his voice, though most of the time he favored the drums or the bass. With the help of music, he had managed to tame the anger that resided in him. Though dormant, his anger will still erupt on certain occasions, and it's best if all of those around him steer clear.

Combat, Stats & Earnings:
