Description:
Image
Standing at almost 7' tall Bison is a real giant of a person, with a body to match. Wide shoulders flowing out into muscular arms, strong but relatively short legs, and a generally strong physique is the first thing you notice on this blue hulk. He sports a short, black mohawk on his head and a short goatee on his chin, and in his nose hangs a nose ring. His horns are rather big and intimidating, but even though that he prefer to use his fists.
He usually goes clad in a pair of black shorts and a black vest, a black tie around his neck and on his feet a pair of black sneakers. When boxing he looses his vest and puts on a pair of similarly black boxing gloves, though the tie still stays on.
Status:
Professional Boxer
World:
Mushroom World
Location:
Diamond City
Abilities:
His strength is his weapon of choice, both figuratively and literally. Dealing out powerful punches and taking hits to the face is his way of fighting, while bull-rushing his opponent could work equally well it ain't a move he uses in the ring.
Weakness:
With his short legs and big body he's not a good dodger and thus prefers to take things head on. His good heart also usually gets the best of him, with the benefit of a doubt proving to be his downfall on more than one occasion.
POW Move:
Brick Breaker Punch - He pulls back his arm and delivers a punch that could shatter bricks. It is a move he only use as a last resort though, knowing its strength and the general weakness of the humanoid body. It also leaves him open for attacks should it miss, another reason to why he seldomly use it.
Chaos/Magic Ability:
Zen Power-Up - When powered up by Chaos or Magic he enters a state of trance which enhances his abilities. His hits are stronger and quicker and he doesn't seem to notice the hits delivered to him. This is because he literally gets tranced up by the energy and acts more on instinct than anything else, which also makes him more reckless in his attacks.
Personality:
Bison, while a professional fighter, knows the virtue of work. He know that nothing gets delivered to your lap on a silver platter and that you have to fight for something if you want it, and thus strive to do his best at everything he takes on. This gives him an image of seriousness and boredom, which while some parts true isn't the whole of it as he enjoys himself as much as anyone else. He's just more calm while doing it, and prefer reading or similar in front of partying or other loud activities the common population enjoys.
And even though he fights for a living, his heart is actually in the right place. The boxing is more of a family tradition, but his mother taught him good values and virtues other than those in the heat of battle. Honesty, loyalty, generosity, kindness; everything a good citizen needs to fulfil his day. While certainly not a model citizen he still does his very best and tries his hardest to be the best he can be towards others, to do not only his father but also his mother proud of him.
History:
Bison is the son of a long line of boxers, as noted by his name. His father holds a long line of champion titles, as did his grandfather before him, and his great grandfather Michelangelo "The Angel of Diamond City" Bison the 4th was during his time the Grand Champion of the Mushroom Kingdom for many years, and the winner of several other titles as well, including his victory in the Kremlin Cup, being the only non-Kremlin to have ever participated, or won it for that matter (which might be why they haven't let other non-Kremlins enter since). Mike himself is pretty new to the scene, and his father Michaelangelo "Rubberman" Bison the 6th still holds the spotlight on the boxing scene.
Mike has been trained to join the family career more or less since before he could walk, as well as during most of his childhood. He fought in the Diamond City Junior Cup, the Yoshi Island Cup, as well as in some underground cups to further his ability. His mother blessed him with a good heart however, or "cursed" him as his father would call it, which has been his downfall in several cases. His opponent stumbles and Mike backs of, waiting for him to get back in the go before striking again, which leaves him open for a sneak attack from his foe. Rinse and repeat, for with a great heart comes great gullibility.
Family traditions says that whenever a Bison is ready to enter the professional stage he has to defeat his father in the biggest of championships, the Rainbow Cup, facing fighters not only from the Mushroom Kingdom and its many vassal states but also from the Beanbean Kingdom, Sarasaland, and many other places as well. Even the Koopa Kingdom and the Kremlin Krew sends fighters to participate, making it one of the few occasion a Kremlin and a Kong can be in the same place at the same time. And should the elder be beat he has to leave the stage, and thus the throne, the spotlight, and the stardom to the younger. Mike has yet to beat his father however, which still makes his father the star of both the family and the boxing world. Mike trains everyday however to become stronger, to rise up, and to one day finally beat his father.
Sample:
The lights blinded him. The crowd deafened him. The pain confused him. And yet he fought on, standing firm and delivered blow after blow to his opponent. He quickly blocked an incoming attack, though thus leaving himself open for a quick jab to the ribcage. He stumbled backwards, though holding position he delivered yet another punch to his foe who nimbly moved away. They were long into the 3rd round, and he couldn't believe his foe still stood. Or was it the 5th? Thoughts didn't come easily to him at the moment, and his foes speed and nimbleness didn't exactly make things easier. With a quick jab he managed to strike his foe right in the chin, but the guy he faced simply bounced back and struck back with another hit to the face. He felt himself fall.
"1... 2... 3..." he heard the referee call out, and made an attempt to get back up.
"4... 5..." He had pushed himself up a bit when he felt his arms falter again. He quickly tried once more, knowing the match would be over otherwise.
"6... 7... 8..." He got up from the floor, and made an attempt to rise to his feet. It shouldn't end like this. It couldn't end like this. It WOULDN'T end like this!
"9..." Mike finally got back onto his feet, ready to strike his opponent down. It had been a close call, but he felt it. This was his time! He flung his arm forward, but his opponent nimbly dodged and struck forward on his own. Mike took it straight to the face. The last thing he saw as he fell was his opponent; The black hair, the cocky grin, the black tank-top, and the green gloves and shorts.
The numbers flew by, and he finally heard those accursed words. "Bison is knocked out! Victory goes to Little Mac!" The cheering of the crowd was the final thing he heard before everything blacked out...
