| Abilities and Skills: |
| Like his parents, Hostyle is a so-called chi-adepts who can naturally focus the power of chi into tangible energy. Besides generating his own tainted, negative chi, he can partially leech the chi from others which is why he prefers to fight in front of an audience to tap power from. He can also heal himself with chi but not as much as he could with untainted power. This power is the only reason why his partially self-taught fighting styles can work. Hostyle's fighting modes are built around the concepts of either frustrating his opponent into making mistakes or simply overpowerig them with brute force. Each mode also seems to bring out something in Hostyle's behavior and not even he seems to know (or care) whether it is to get into the spirit of the style or something that he can't control. |
| Gear, Equipment, etc.: |
| Besides the body armor he wears in various outfits, he is mainly known for wearing some sort of mask. Many of these masks are for show while others are loaded with features like night vision capabilities, earpiece electronics that let him eavesdrop on low-level communication signals. |

| Notes: |
| Hostyle was the name of a video game fanzine that I was going to make but never got around to starting. I thought it would be a good name for a Twofold enemy and decided to make him more like a video game's final boss who has to be beaten before the game is won. He wears many ridiculous outfits and masks that are tributes to video game villains. He had a small character profile in the 1997 Twofold ashcan comic. |
