Spoiler:

Personality: Always smiling and acting casual around others. He seems to though lack compassion or care. He neither reacts nor cares at the sight of injury or death alike. His approach towards other people makes him seem like "everybody's best friend" but in reality he thinks of no one as a friend in the slightest. Sometimes, mostly during battle, he would show a wilder side to him that may be considered downright insane. In truth, he really is insane. Byron is downright mad and mentally broken in ways beyond natural signs of madness. His insanity is up to the point that certain functions of his brains completely fail all together or is by least completely unnoticed or ignored. He's what one would consider a "wild card" being unable to determine whether or not he is friend or foe in any situation. All of his insanity and madness is hidden behind his casual smile and friendliness. Although he acts like a normal nice guy, his mental state is beyond comprehension. Though very sociable, he's less then a team player. When time comes when he must fight, he often shows little care or thought to whether or not his comrade(s) get caught in the crossfire accidentally. Despite all of this, he has a rather childish side as well. While some people may have a sweet tooth, every single tooth in Byron's mouth IS a sweet tooth. He enjoys a cheery cup of tea everyday and has a rather strange hobby of collecting cute things, mostly stuffed animals. When it comes to sexual interests, he has none. He sees no difference in gender or race, only "enemy" and "ally".

Strength:

Madness
* Limit break: A human's brain subconsciously limit's a human's strength to 10% of his full potential because a human's body is unable to withstand its own full strength. Byron's insanity has completely destroyed this part of his subconscious rationality. This part of his brain is now unable to recognize his own body's limits. This allows him access to up to 100% of his strength, roughly 10x the strength of an average man. His muscular structure though is only about the same as an average hunter, just the right build and tone to carry and swing a weapon and maybe win at arm wrestling a few times. Multiplied by ten, he has access to enough strength at 100% to lift a small car but not enough to throw it.

*Numb: The part of his brain that registers pain and feeling is no longer able to recognize or understand pain. Even if shot or stabbed, Byron literally does not feel it and sometimes doesn't even realize it had happened in the first place. He does not suffer from strain, recoil, or anything else that results from actually feeling things or registering pain.

*Fearless: His mind is unable to register fear or anxiety. He is unburdened by hesitation or caution. He can not be intimidated or scared and does not even flinch when attacked.

*Mad Tea Party: Sometimes during combat situations, Byron would go into a mad state that can be considered a form of berserker. His mad rush of power makes him rage the battlefield wildly. His attacks are faster and the increase in acceleration makes his physical attacks more lethal. This state of mind is triggered only at 6 o'clock in the evening and lasts for only 6 minutes.

Weakness:
MADNESS:

*Limit Break: He has no actual control over this power. By default he uses the standard 10% but during battle this can fluctuate from 10 to 80 then down to 30 and up to 50 without his consent. Though the ability to break his limits gives him access to monstrous strength at times, this does not change the fact that he has a normal human body. Going past 10% up to 30% is pushing it and anything above that can break down his body, breaking his own bones or tearing his own muscles apart. Even though he does not feel the pain or strain, there is only such a limit where his body is damaged so much he can't even force it to move properly or at all.

*Numb: Even though he does not feel pain, he does still receive damage and injury just like a regular person, he just doesn't feel or react to it. Unable to feel pain, he has no awareness of his physical state. He could be bleeding to death and would not realize it or his leg is on fire and he would not feel his flesh burn. This inability to realize his own physical state means he would continue strenuous combat even though he requires serious medical attention or is unable to deal with a problem like being on fire or such before it becomes worse then it need to be before he even notices. He easily succumbs to damage due to this.

*Fearless: Ignorant of fear, Byron has literally no caution. He would literally head straight into danger with out a care. This has led him to getting hit easily without him even feeling it. He never hesitates meaning an enemy could be lunging right at him when he gets close for a melee attack and Byron would not even try to dodge and would continue running his blade through the enemy despite and won't even flinch when struck at the same time. He ends up letting attacks just plain hit him a lot due to this.

*Mad Tea Party: This state of mind happens suddenly without warning right at 6 o'clock. Though it doesn't result in anything completely terrible in normal situations most of the time, when in combat and this state happens to him, regardless of position of situation it would happen and he would go into a state completely devoid of rationality. This state also only lasts for 6 minutes after 6 o'clock so the damage he can even do with this in the first place is limited for a very short amount of time and is over within three turns. Mad Tea party also increases strain on his muscle structure and after the six minutes, Byron moves a little slower then usual.

*Undefended: Though usually his weapon defends his back and his sides easily enough he can still be hit and damaged. Unlike others though who rely on aura to lighten or deflect blows, he is unable to do that in any form, thus attacks inflicted on him do more damage then average.

*Literal Dead Eye: Though trained to somewhat work around it, Byron's blind eye makes his accuracy a little less then any other gunslinger with the same amount of training he had. His dead eye also gives him a blind spot, making his left side more vulnerable to a surprise attack

Semblance:

Wonderland: Invokes disturbing illusions that confuses and disorientates the enemy by making them see a world devoid of reason or sanity. The illusions may sometimes take the form of an enemy's nightmare or fear causing a fear effect. The illusions only turns the world into an alternate fake reality and does not change or hides the appearance of Byron or anyone else but it does cause coordination to be compromised making the enemy miss more often without even the need to try to dodge. The illusions are not lethal in any way or have any physical properties. It does though have a 10% chance of putting the enemy into a "dream" state and immobilizes said enemy for a random amount of time depending on the enemy's willpower and intellectual level.

Fighting Style: To put it in one word, "unpredictable". Byron fights completely on instinct and just goes with whatever feels right. In general he favors long range combat and would try to keep his distance as he fires his guns. When forced in close combat, he uses the blades jotting out of his guns in frontal slashes and thrusts. He often likes to perform a rotating movement causing the mantel of swords to lift the blades up parallel to the ground and slices nearby enemies like a buzz saw or by least bashes them aside with the broad side of the blades. He tends to cause massive destruction as well as heavy collateral damage.

Extra Info: The light, his aura, had abandoned Byron ever since the incident. In its stead is a nameless force devoid of light. It holds the same properties as aura. Aura level meters would read it the same as it does aura It even decreases the same as aura would when performing strenuous tasks or when damaged in combat and in all other traits it is the same as aura, except it neither protects him from harm or heals his wounds. It can not be used in aura weaponry or used for defensive ability in any way, thus he takes more then average damage. This thing devoid of light has come to be called "Abyss" by Byron. Though Byron is well aware that his Abyss is not a form of aura but something else, as far as aura meters or other people are able to tell it is simply normal aura so Byron has been able to pass it on as such unnoticed.

WEAPON

Name: Thanatos

Primary Form: A coffin with a clock on it. It is carried around like a backpack and is less then subtle. Byron's Symbol is printed on the back side. Written underneath it in script is "How is a raven like a writing desk?"

Secondary Form:

Spoiler:

Transformation description: The coffin would flip open. Afterwards and mechanically controlled wire extends to release the mantle of broad swords which around which slide on top of each other when compacting. The same mechanical wire remains stiff and stays in place and position at an angle. The guns which are connected to the mantle by sturdy titanium chains have both the barrel and handle as well as the blades folded or retracted into the gun but unfold and pop out once the weapon is deployed.

Weapon info and usage: The blades can be pushed outwards by Byron but will remain in a fixed place one pushed by another force from outside. A sudden turn or movement such as a quick spin and rotation of the entire body can also make the blades lift up like helicopter blades. The twin guns shoot 9 mm sharpened tipped steel core bullets at a bullet speed of 900 mph with a reload time of .8 seconds between firing and a max. range of over 900 m. The bullets are less effective the closer the target and more lethal the farther it is. The barrels can also retract and the bottom part of the gun will open a latch containing a 1000 mm fire dust filled explosive rocket propelled grenade. Each gun holds one and can only be shot once each. Effective explosive range is roughly a 18 ft. radius. The firing speed itself is rather slow traveling at only 10 mph giving any enemy plenty of room to simply run out of range so this function is mostly used only on extremely large Grimm or a large gathered group of enemies.

History: Thanatos's name is derived from the name of the Greek god of death who worked under Hades to brings souls to the Underworld. The form this god is often depicted by is often that of a black winged cupid and carrying a jagged sword. This could be reference to the mantle of blades the weapon has in combat form that somethings seem like wings. The god Thanatos's personality is often considered one of burning hatred for humanity and life itself and takes pleasure in ending it at every opportunity. This may also reference to other things.

Custom built by Byron Hatters in combat school. Byron designed it with one thing in mind, "Let's have some fun". The mantle of broad swords as well as the ominous coffin in the back act as Byron's only defense from the back and the sides though his lack of caution often makes that bit pretty pointless. He often gets worried stares or harassed by local law enforcement carrying around a giant coffin everywhere he goes but anybody who has seen it in actual combat form will blatantly say that the coffin is less frightening. The clock works as an actual clock, and rings like a grandfather clock whenever a new hour comes. Though fairly heavy, Byron shows little problem carrying it around.

WEAPON

Name: Mad Hat

Primary Form:

Spoiler:

Inside the hat is a handle with a trigger. Pulling the trigger can shoot a steel core pointed tipped bullet from a short barrel revolver. Bullet is launched through the hole at the top of the hat.

Secondary Form: Visual in second half of the picture above. The top flattens down and blades pop out of the brim of the hat and a coil of chains is unleashed. This form acts as a sort of razor disc weapon that can be thrown like a frizbee and pulled around using the chain whip.

Tertiary Form:

Spoiler:

The blades, connected by steel wire, are pulled together to make a full long sword with a forty foot chain whip jotting from the pommel. At the other end of the chain whip is a heavy weight shaped like a spade. In this form the trigger is still available to shoot the small revolver rounds but the main feature is a small switch on the handle that can be pressed to loosen the steel strong keeping the blade together turning the sword into a sword of a bladed whip.

History: The hat belonged to his father who had received it from his grandfather, a long retired hunter, as a family heirloom. Though his father never learned to use the hat as a weapon, Byron trained in its usage before creating Thanatos. Still attached to the hat, Byron continues to wear it, but he hardly uses it."

And edited in the new weapon. I also changed the images around a bit but that's not particularly important.
