Fighting Style

Rychin seldom fights, but when he does, he uses a special discipline of ki and psionic powers, known as Kion. It creates a "negative polarity" ki, which naturally repels his natural ki. This is used for a variety of effects, like a sort of "rail gun" technique that can punch holes through nearly anything with a tiny, super-propelled ki laser.

Biography

Rychin Utemaro was a charming, common man who was raised from a middle-class home and eventually ran his own printing service business. Martial arts was a way to deal with the stress that came from entities of massive power battling in the world around him. His mental abilities manifested late in life, spawning from a peculiar talent in concentration and focus that he discovered in his martial arts classes.

As he casually developed his powers and thought critically about their use, he became associated with a broad variety of power wielders, particularly when a band of power wielder rights activists visited his business, to acquire posters for picketing the Directional Council. An exchange of philosophies took place, and Rychin became increasingly active in the rights activism communities. His strong charisma differed from many power wielders, who by their very nature were largely unusual and unrelating people with quirks and abnormalities that made the people at large dissociate them from the rest of Cardinal. As such, Rychin brought unprecedented attention to the civil rights of power wielders, while becoming something of an idol for many power wielders, some who were far, far more powerful than he was, with his choice of a mundane lifestyle.

Rychin really found the spotlight during the Etiquette of Reform saga, while the Chorus sought to hold Cardinal hostage for their deposed prince. While the Directional Council moved from location to location, Rychin and other lobbyists followed, and paved the way for the Cardinal Power Wielder Act, which established an infrastructure of the government and law that would be accountable for managing Cardinal's power wielder citizens. It would later spur the creation of the Ranger Guard and the Special Adept Forces.

While Rychin was eventually forced to abandon his printing company for his active political career, he has recently enjoyed less fame than he once did. His face is still quite prominent whenever power wielder rights are raised, and he is still respected for viewing all sides of debates in fair light. His extra time was invested in a maturing relationship with Sarah Nevaeh Bromms, who currently lives with him at his modest house in outlying Central Capital.
