Slade the Ratel/Rabbit

I mentioned this guy on Faith's account so it seemed appropriate to create his chara.

Currently working on the pictures-I'll have them uploaded in a little while

Slade is a Ratel. Ratels are a species of mustelid animals commonly reffered to as "Honey Badgders," mustelid-meaning they are almost completely tantamount to weasels in every way, as opposed to having any physical resemblances to their badger relatives. Here is a documentary about the Honey Badger if you are unfamiliar with this animal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c81bcjyfn6U

Powers and Abilities
Slade has the overall ability to harden his molecular density to the point of near-indestructibility by thickening the carbon atoms of his body, thus reconstructing them into a type of graphene that neither bullets nor explosives can penetrate. This renders him practically invulnerable. As a trade-off, however, the added weight of the graphene tends to slow him down making him much less agile in in a fight. The hardening procedure also requires an extensive period of time before successfully shelling his entire body-it is because of this that he usually thickens a small portion of his body (such as his hands and/or his forearms depending on the situation) so they can be used as shielding. In addition to Slade's unique ability he also happens to be a master sharpshooter and firearms specialist. He is infamous for never missing his mark and has been given the name "Deadshot" as a result. He often carrries two Glock handguns, a 44 Magnum, and sometimes even a 7.62x51mm M40 Sniper Rifle which he wields with professional adroitness. Slade is quite skilled in combat tactics and covert operations, able to act in accordance to almost any situation without hesitation. Also; he is excessively skilled in hand-to-hand combat and is fully capable of holding his own against opponents much larger and/or stronger than himself, even without the aid of his shields.

Personality
On the surface, Slade makes himself out to be an arrogant, comedic, and self-absorbed individual who hardly takes anything seriously. He is expertly manipulative when he wants to be and is prone to thinking several steps ahead of the bigger picture-so to speak. He can also be very aggressive and violent among those who oppose him-revealing a more darker side. Due to his self-imposed reputation of defending those in need (an oath he swore to carry out after the tragic murder of his family) he has an unusual penchant to stubborness in regards to his pride and fiery self-destructive tempers which tend to cloud his judgement. He does, however, have a kinder, more gentle side that he displays in the presence of the fearful, the innocent, and especially his girlfriend. He will sometimes entirely disregard his primary objective to assist other if they are in need of his services. Slade has shown several symptoms of bipolar disorders though most of the time he's able to control these emotions all for the sake of not losing his cool.
