Belarious Knockford

Next up we got a character that I've been meaning to make FOR YEARS.

For those who were around for Ace V1, remember those robot/android twin girls? Alpha and Beta? Well after lord knows how long, I've finally designed their creator/father.

Holy christ. I don't think I ever put off doing an OC for this long ever before. This was at least, I wanna say, 2-3 years in the making? Maybe more???

But his time is now, so let's say hello to the good Downtrodden Doc/Prof./Scientist/WHATEVER, Belarious Knockford!

And uh, sorry for the wait. Writer's block n' all that. Trust me, it's not easy to write a good, shoft fighting game-esque bio, let me tell ya!

Optimist, Scientist, Public Icon. A few phrases that can describe the famous Dr. Belarious Knockford, a Clown whose life has always been dedicated to improving the lives of those around him out of the goodness in his heart! However, beneath that smiling venear is a man who has sunken to the depths of Hell and beyond.

His stumbled into madness happened years ago just as he was atop the world stage.

It all began when his 5 year old daughter, Analise, fell gravely ill. Despite the best efforts of him and his associated, Knockford's beautiful baby girl had fallen from the mortal coil.

His world had turned dark and the future was no longer optimistic. He found himself all alone with nothing more than a bottle of Jack and a life feeling wasted with his wife gone. He was swallowed by the beast and barely faught to get out of it.

But one day, he knew he had to over come this. The pain in his chest is heavy, but he'll put the grief to good use.

Returning to his comrades in the scientific community, he showed off what would be a radical plan: Resurrecting his daughter as an android powered by her brain.

As he went on about what it would take, he was turned on by his once co-collabarators, being hailed as a lunatic whose brain was still addled by binge drinking his woes away.

But ever determined, he wasn't going to give up. Even if it meant having to team up with an unlikely ally in someone whom he hated with a deep passion: Maximilian Cross.

Cross had heard of Knockford's idea and was all ready to go all in, but Knockford intially refused. He saw Cross' proposition as just another way to gain more power in the world, teaming with a scientist of his nature. But Max made it clear:

This would all be Knockford's plan with Max funding it all completely out of pocket. However, Max would require something in return at a later date.

With not much choice and no options left, Knockford agreed. And with that, work began on Project α+β, as well as experimenting on Piero-Ken for his own volition...
