After eight months of training, he began to venture out into the wilds of Vacuo on his own. One day, after returning from a successful job, he found Wellspring under occupation by group known as the Reformist. Alone and confuse, Ade blazed his own path to Vale in hopes of finding his family. After two months of “odd jobs,” he gain enough money for a flight to Vale and eventually found his family. Ade informed his father that Wellspring has fallen. Two months later, he applied and was accepted into Signal. He wanted to refine his skills and need to be ready for any fight. After graduating from Signal, he applied and was accepted into Beacon.

weapon[]
Ade carries two weapons; two dust revolvers known as the Ebony Jackal and Crimson Jackal, respectively. This revolvers do not reload in the normal sense, the cylinder acts more like a magazine instead of each individual rounds being place (ref: Destiny hand cannon). Each revolver has small compartment attached to the bottom of the barrel that houses folding 6 inch serrated combat knives for melee combat. This are eight-shot double-action revolvers that chambered for a specialized .357 magnum rounds.
Abilities[]
Ade relies heavily on mobility, evasion, and speed. Interesting enough, he far from a fragile speeder and has a moderate pain threshold. Misdirection and evasion are his key skills. Distracting enemies and keep them off balance, Ade at his best when he's in mid-to-short range combat, using methods specialized to his weapons. Out of combat, he an adapt tracker and pathfinder, often finding shortcuts or paths to locations.
His semblance, known as, Tripmine, allows Ade to creates up to four runes that immobilize an opponent for up to five seconds. He can only be applied this glyph to anything with a relatively flat surface such as the ground, walls, and boxes.Often uses it as prelude to a fight and get some quick damage off. Also as an escape tactic for when he losing a fight. He is also fond of combining Dust such as ice or fire with the glyph to cause a small explosion of fire or small ice shards.The main draw back of his semblance is that he can only create four at a time and they only last five seconds before disappearing.
