Biography
Takeda Takahashi (Japanese: 高橋武田) was a male human born in Earthrealm as the child of Kenshi and a Thai-American woman named Suchin.
Five years ago during his time as a member of the Shirai Ryu, Takeda engaged against Hanzo Hasashi during a test. He bests Hanzo and is promoted to Chujin. As he is congratulated, he asks how to serve the clan, only for Hanzo to tell him his future lies somewhere else. Hanzo mentions his father, to which he denies as to ever having a father. At that time, Kenshi arrives soon after to congratulate his son, but Takeda is angered by his presence by telling him of that he was never there for him. Hanzo tries to calm him, but gets in a fight with his father, claiming that he was not his son. After the fight, Hanzo tells him that Kenshi left him in the Shirai Ryu to protect him from his mother's killers. Takeda recalls his mother dying in an accident, but Kenshi confesses that it was a story he asked Hanzo to tell him. Kenshi reveals that Suchin was murdered due to his part of investigating the Red Dragon. Takeda is angered by this revelation, but Hanzo tells him that Kenshi had devoted his life to fighting the Red Dragon. He tells Kenshi he shouldn't have hidden the truth, but Kenshi claims that he would've gone after them prematurely. Kenshi revealed his power of telepathy to his son, and tells him that he had come to complete his training. He also promised that they would hunt down the Red Dragon together.
Overview
Personality and attributes
In appearance, Takeda Takahashi was a human male of mixed Japanese and Thai descent with a muscular, highly athletic physical frame, measuring six feet in height and weighing 185 pounds. He possessed short, straight black hair, sharp features, and dark eyes. His specialized Shirai Ryu training uniform consisted of an intricate set of high-tech layered body armor featuring a dark blue and bright yellow color configuration, augmented by thick protective metal shoulder pauldrons and an orange plasma-emitting chest harness. He wore a traditional bright yellow fabric headband tied securely around his forehead, heavy-duty dark combat trousers, secure shin guards, and specialized metallic forearm gauntlets engineered to entirely conceal a set of mechanical, spear-tipped bladed whips.
Powers and abilities
Takeda Takahashi was born a member of the human race native to Earthrealm and possessed an exceptionally advanced physical physiology characterized by superhuman strength, extreme acrobatic agility, and accelerated combat reflexes. As the premier prodigy disciple of Hanzo Hasashi, Takeda Takahashi achieved elite martial arts mastery, combining traditional Shirai Ryu ninjutsu stealth tactics with modern close-quarters combat disciplines. He inherited a latent genetic psychic attunement from his father's warrior lineage, granting him functional telepathic and telekinetic capabilities that allowed him to effortlessly read minds, interrogate targets, or overload an opponent’s sensory nervous system during combat. His specialized weapon mastery allowed him to utilize mechanical, gauntlet-extended bladed whips with supreme kinetic precision, which he seamlessly integrated with localized teleportation techniques and telekinetically controlled plasma swords to bypass an adversary's defenses.
Takeda was a trained warrior, the apprentice of Scorpion himself, and has shown great skill with using bladed whips and plasma empowered swords in combat, referencing both his teacher Scorpion and his father Kenshi. His serrated edged whips are concealed in his gauntlets, and are launched at high powered speed for maximum striking power. He has also shown the power to teleport in a similar manner to his master, Scorpion. Like his father, Kenshi, Takeda has shown some telekinetic abilities by being able to move his plasma swords with his mind, and possesses some telepathic power as well, able to read minds and overload senses with enough concentration. Unlike his mentor and father, Takeda has the unique ability to form an orange, plasma-like aura around parts of his body and weapons to inflict further damage against his opponents.
