Race:Saiyan
Gender:Male
Universe: N/A
Height:6’
Weight:185 LBS
Hair Color:Black
Eye Color: Black
Identifying Markers:
Personality:Calm, Cold and Calculating, what Arlic lacks as a Low class Saiyan he makes up for
For as an intelligent tactician. His struggles through life with a low power level has lead him
To rely on the knowledge he accumulated through careful study of hundreds of years of galactic
Unrest. He favors loyalty, and has sworn his allegiance to the survival of the Saiyan race and
Believes that alone the Saiyan could not survive because of their constant need for battle would
Always lead them to destruction.
Arlic has a reputation of being manipulative, using words to steer people either into or away
From conflicts and has even convinced others to take out some of his own enemies that he couldn’t
Handle alone. This has made him a hard man to trust, but those who truly understood Arlic would
Understand that most of what he has done was in the best interest of the saiyans and those he
deems His allies.
Finally, Arlic is straight forward and brash. He believes himself to be one of the smartest
Members of the Saiyan race, and takes pride in his intellect. Although he respects the decisions
Made by his superior officers, he tends to stray from orders in an attempt to make the best out
Of what he was tasked with doing. Despite all these seemingly negative traits, Arlic still feels
Remorse when his plans fall apart and people get hurt. He generally cares for the people he works
Alongside, and considers his comrades his family even though he comes off as a jerk most of the
Time.
Likes/Dislikes: Arlic likes to read and study. He then enjoys using what he's learned to outsmart his opponents. He dislikes muscle heads, hot heads, and most saiyans who judge a person by their power level rather than the whole person concept.
Aspirations: Rise in the ranks using his intellect and tactical expertise.
Homeworld:
Allegiance:Remnant Alliance

Appearance:
Arlic is an average sized Saiyan, standing at a modest 6 feet tall with a thin, and toned body. He has a slightly darker complexion that most saiyans, looking tanned most of the time. His hair is medium length, spiked, and like most saiyans; black. His body has its share of scars from both cuts and burns. His head doesn't have any distinguishable marks except for a scar on his left chin.
For armor, Arlic wears a dark grey under suit with black saiyan armor without the shoulder pieces. Like other saiyans he keeps his tail wrapped around his waist. He has a modified scouter which doesn't explode when detecting high power levels, its lens is red and ear piece white.
Backstory:
Arlic was born into a lower class saiyan family who worked the manufacturing lines that built space pods, body armor, and blasters. Like others born in the lower class, nothing grand was expected from him at birth. It was presumed that he wouldn't amount to anything due to his low power level. As he grew older, other lower class saiyans, who were considered 'hopefuls' for joining the Saiyan army, would pick fights with him and use him as a punching bag. One day, while Arlic was laying beaten on the ground he was approached by an old man, a veteran saiyan warrior who'd been disabled in his last mission and discarded. He took pity on Arlic and decided to teach him how to fight as well as how to use his brain to outsmart his fellow saiyans.
The young Saiyan was a quick study, and began using what measly funds he could scrap together to buy books on previous wars, battles, tactics, philosophy and history. He learned a great deal from his teacher, and was soon able to fight back against the 'hopefuls' through strategy. The old man made some calls to old friends and managed to secure Arlic a spot with the other 'hopefuls' to try to prove they're power levels had risen enough to join the army. All the hopefuls were sent to a planet and were expected to conquer it. They had to use any means necessary to accomplish the mission, so immediately groups were formed. Arlic was left out of the groups and at first had to fend for himself.
In order to survive, Arlic joined the planets inhabitants insight on the saiyans tactics. They were reluctant to let him guide their forces but he proved useful to them. Despite the best laid out plans, Arlic only managed to delay the inevitable fall of the planet but secretly he expected that. Only a small group of saiyans remained and the planets inhabitants were bunkered down for one final stand. The two parties clashed in one final battle inside the planets capital palace but unbeknownst to them Arlic had set the building to explode using the power sources to his saiyan brethren's space pods. In the middle of battle, the young saiyan set off the cores and leveled the entire area killing everyone. He was the only being left on the planet.
Successful, although not how the authorities wanted, Arlic was brought into the military. They figured he'd die from the training to become a 'proper' saiyan warrior but Arlic put everything he learned from the old man to use in order to survive despite his low power level. Things would drastically changed, however, when the Saiyans would split between following Nasu or Komatsu. Seeing that Komatsu was on a war path and would likely lead the saiyans on a difficult path, Arlic elected to take a safer route by choosing to follow Nasu.
Being a mercenary fit Arlic, it allowed him to take on different challenges that required more than just brute strength to accomplish. It also earned him plenty of money to invest into his studies to help broaden his knowledge.
