| ~ Yuu's introduction quote |
Yuu Henderson is the first boss opponent encountered in Emissaries of the Forgotten Tomorrow, with a stat build based and fully focused on his infinite stamina stat.
Personality[]
As a man who has went through a lot of stuff, Yuu is a rather calm person with a strong sense of loyalty to his promises; to the point of having literally done the impossible in order to keep them intact. As a saiyan, however, he also has an even stronger pride and overwhelming anger that usually tends to take over him when he needs it the most. This is specially shown on his first fight against the (in that moment) three emissaries, in which nearly all of his power is purely fueled by his own pride, which at the same time increases overtime as the fight goes on. This is only on the present though; he was way different back then on his glory years before the events prior to the roleplay's.
Combat Statistics[]
Key: Base | Restrained Overdrive | Fullblown Overdrive | Prideful Tempest
Tier: High 4-C | High 4-C | 4-B | 4-B
Powers and Abilities:
Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Martial Arts, Energy Manipulation, Higher-Dimensional fire and heat manipulation (Absolute Inferno's flames and heat could reach out to the 4th dimension and even higher if he desired so), Reactive Evolution (As a saiyan, Yuu grows stronger the longer he fights for, being capable of easily adapting to his opponents as well), Rage Power (His restrained overdrive form is triggered out of pure rage, and his attacks can grow bigger and stronger if he is mad enough), Acausality (Types 1 and 2, each boss corrupted by "it" has had all of their past and future instances removed from their timeline, with the objective of rendering any chance of preventing their corruption by altering the past useless), Self-Sustenance (Type 3, Yuu's core provides him with an infinite amount of energy, which makes him capable of not having to rest at all), Telekinesis (Type 1, as shown on his fight with the emissaries, he is capable of levitating and throwing objects around with his energy), Black Hole Manipulation, Power Nullification (With Absolute Inferno, the heat he produces renders his opponent's energy sources useless), Statistics Amplification and Statistics Reduction (Via several forms), Corruption (via Darkening), Status Effect Inducement, True Flight, Information Manipulation (Whenever a non-android user tries to use any kind of information gathering technique on him, Yuu can willingly encrypt part of the data sent, if not all of it).
Information Manipulation via encryption, Mind Manipulation and Corruption (Is already mentally controlled and corrupted by a higher order being in the series' events).
Attack Potency: Large Star level (Only on his base form he already is 4 times stronger than each of the early game emissaries, with each one of the latter being capable of fending off against a darkened horde that caused about two hundred stars to vanish from the sky (1.501 Foe) [6.004 Foe]) | Large Star level (Albeit having barely fought in this form, it was scanned by Shion's Discerning Eye to double the user's power level. Effortlessly parried an attack from Shion that would have normally harmed him [12.008 Foe]) | Solar System level (Completely eclipsed the three emissaries with this form, effortlessly parrying their attacks away. A simple ki blast cause Sofia to almost fall defeated despite having guarded against said attack. Should be 5 times stronger than on his Restrained Overdrive form [60.04 Foe]) | Solar System level (The shockwave caused by him missing a single punch collapsed a nearby star into an hypernova and caused a chain reaction that resulted into around 80 stars turning into supernovas as well. Should also be three times stronger than within his Fullblown Overdrive state [180.12 Foe]).
Speed: Massively FTL+ (One of his ki blasts travelled 415 meters in half a picosecond, and he should be able to move at comparable speeds) | Massively FTL+ (Should be twice as fast as on his base form. Shown to easily react to all of the emissaries' attacks, who are comparable in speed to his base form) | Massively FTL+ (Should be five times faster than on his Restrained Overdrive state) | Massively FTL+ (Should be 3 times faster than on his Fullblown Overdrive state).
Lifting Strength: Class K (Lifted a hand made out of 10 cubic meters of pure gold), higher with Telekinesis (Could lift the rubbles of the entire arena).
Striking Strength: Large Star level | Large Star level | Solar System level | Solar System level.
Durability: Large Star level (Could easily endure point blank blows from the three emissaries at the same time) | Large Star level | Solar System level | Unknown (Got one-shot by Sofia. His defense stat is over -3.2 millions).
Stamina: Infinite (As a half-android, his mechanical core provides him with an infinite supply of energy to use in combat), Medium with Prideful Tempest (Within this form, his core is overheated which starts producing more power to the expense of leaving his body weakened and stopping his energy production).
Range: Standard Melee Range, Hundreds of Meters with Ki and Magic, Interstellar with shockwaves, Universal+ with Absolute Inferno.
Intelligence: At least Gifted (Yuu demonstrated to be very wise and possess a great knowledge of stuff that none of the three emissaries even knew about, such as the existence of more than one multiverse. He also has a supercomputer attached to his brain that could or could not theoretically give him more knowledge about stuff that he hasn't been able to show yet. Out of the 7 possesed opponents of the main cast, he is the only one that knows of a way to free himself and take the corruption out of his body as well).
Note: It was stated (in OOC) that, if plot wasn't a thing on that specific fight, none of the three emissaries would have made it past Yuu's base form. Also stated to be one of the hardest ones, if not the hardest of all of them.
Notable Attacks and Techniques[]
Ki: The fighting power and life force of a martial artist, a tangible energy derived from the user's vigor, courage, and mind. It can be used in a number of ways, such as to surpass the limits of one's body to greatly increase in strength, and it can be fired as blasts of energy or used to create defensive barriers. Along with his Saiyan blood, Ki acts as the source of Yuu's incredible power and abilities.
Overdrive Smash: Yuu's most iconic energy-imbued physical attack, which serves more as a finisher rather than as something to combine with normal attacks. It consists on Yuu overcharging his right arm with raw power and energy until it literally starts glowing, which is when he releases all of that power towards somewhere in specific, usually at an opponent. Within one of its only shown uses, it was shown how Sofia's ribcage nearly became obliterated as she coughed blood, despite normal attacks not being even close of doing such feat. Yuu tends to go for the maximum amount of damage dealt possible with this technique as it leaves him in a position where he can't defend as usual.
Mana: Although not as known and primordial as ki on itself, Mana is the source of all magic that surrounds the multiverse and even beyond. It allows for complete control of the elements if strong enough, and even more types of powers with more experience. Yuu isn't specially skilled on it, although his telekinetical and fiery powers come completely from this source of power.
- Telekinesis: A type of magic that, although easy to learn and conquer, is extremely strong if used wisely enough. Via the use of mana, Yuu is capable of making rocks and chunks of land to rapidly float around, throw people up into the sky and down into the underground, and even in extreme situations, bend gravity itself and directly apply pressure on his opponents. He is quite proficiently on this, having managed to fend off against three opponents at the same time with this powerful kind of magic and even badly injuring one of them.
- Fire Manipulation: A quite easier to learn type of elemental magic than Telekinesis, although much harder and stronger if mastered. Yuu, who is far above being a master regarding the use of this elemental magic, can empower his own mana with the use of his own ki and bodily heat, creating massive flames of stellar destruction from what would originally be simple waves of fire. His fire magic, when used good enough, is effortlessly far stronger than Sofia's "Taiyo Arcana" and Buberi's energy at the same time even while holding back his full strength.
- Hypercharged Incineration Cannon: While using this technique, Yuu puts both of his hands in front of himself on a quite different but similar stance as the final flash's. However, this technique is incredibly brutal and used with the only purpose of harming because of what it does. This technique takes two turns to use. In the first turn, he must overheat their arms in any way he can do so in, like with energy, actual fire, etc, in a way that nearly reaches the limit of heat his arms can stand. Then, he charges an energy beam in between their palms. Upon the release of this attack, it can engulf and incinerate entire planets out of sheer size.
Saiyan Physiology: The physiology of a Saiyan, an aggressive warrior race of conquerors. Saiyans have the natural ability to control ki and to fly. In addition, while his lifespan is comparable to that of a human, Yuu will remain at his peak strength for much longer. One of the most powerful abilities of a Saiyan is their ability to grow stronger and stronger through combat, allowing him to constantly push his own limits during a fight and rise to higher and higher peaks in power. This ability grants a substantial boost in power when Yuu is badly injured, allowing him to reach a whole new level of power once he recovers.
Android Physiology: Once a full-blooded saiyan, Yuu went under complicated surgery that removed most of his vital organs and gave him a massive boost in strength and a core with an infinite energy generator which supplies him with endless amounts of ki and mana, making him unexhaustable. Because of this, Yuu doesn't have a ki signature and his power level cannot be sensed normally even with information gathering techniques such as Discerning Eye.
- Error404: An aftereffect caused by a module implanted directly into Yuu's brain. The module itself consists on a supercomputer and an antivirus that constantly scans Yuu's body and surroundings searching for technological threats that can affect Yuu's android system and neutralizing them flawlessly. Upon finding once, which was the case of Buberi, it sends special phising vibrations that cause the threat to undergo into an "Error 404" state, in which their ki / mana reserves are completely nullified for a determined amount of time.
- Encrypting: Regarding non-technological threats attempting to take information out of him via information gathering techniques, Yuu can encrypt the data sent at the opponent at his will, whether it be a simple piece of it or the entire thing. This is mainly the reason why Shion's Discerning Eye seemed to have gathered an encrypted piece of data.
Darkening: "Darkening" refers to two things: The evil influence within Yuu's body and mind, and the ability of applying darkened changes into the opponents via determined status effects... Though for this, it means the latter more than the former. "Darkening" allows Yuu to passively and unwillingly apply Darkened Charges via a few determined status effects to an opponent without them knowing he did so. Darkened Charges corrupt the opponent the more of them they have accumulated, and they won't go away until the first source of the corruption itself is gone (which doesn't specifically mean the one who applied them). In combat terms, what this does is take a toll on the opponent's body by making the opponent take more damage from Yuu's attacks.
Overdrive: Yuu's most iconic transformation, that even though is just one, becomes divided into three parts thanks to the influence of Darkening: The restrained and weakest stage, the fullblown and original stage, and the prideful tempest and strongest stage. As the fight progresses, Yuu shows to lose the capability of reasoning properly more and more until he ends up losing his self-consciousness as he uses his Fullblown Overdrive thanks to the evil influence within himself and his overwhelming madness. While "Restrained Overdrive" only takes a moderate toll on his body and "Fullblown Overdrive" makes him go numb in a blind attack of anger, "Prideful Tempest" breaks down his core and stars to outright kill him on the spot when used for too long.
Absolute Inferno: When Yuu's overwhelming strength combined itself with his massive willpower, his elemental fire magic and his darkened charges, his peak technique made its first appearance. Absolute Inferno allows Yuu to passively nullificate all kinds of energy sources from the opponents and to raise the heat levels of the area, to the point of it having been stated that even the 4 dimensions that composed the universe and the fabric of reality started to melt due to the sheer heat and power the mechanical saiyan emanated with this technique. Absolute Inferno's colossal power essentially resides on being capable of passively melting higher dimensions and planes of existence overtime.
Cinereous Axis: Yuu's first and only attack involving black hole manipulation as shown in his bossfight. With his full power, Yuu is capable of opening a specially powerful black hole capable of sucking in beings comparable to himself and potentially even stronger almost without any chance for them to make a safe escape. He also releases a massive ki storm consisting on millions of energy blasts shot at ludicrous speeds towards the black hole in order to either knock his opponents out or to push them towards the black hole. Thanks to the unlimited amount of energy emanating from his core that he possesses, he can hold this attack for as long as he wishes to; with the only way to stop him from holding it more is landing a blow on him.
