Description
Christopher Marco was born a Mutant, with four arms and incredible strength, hearing and sight. He has no knowledge of where he came from or who his family is. Chris was raised by a secret wing of the U.S. Government who had learned of his existence. His foster family was a lab, and daily military trainings. His childhood was rough, grueling, and strict. It wasn't until Chris reached adulthood that he escaped the confines of the military lab, and made his way to Canada.Chris was alone and cold out in the middle of no where, just north of Montana.. where he had been held for years..by chance, a traveling circus happened by the way ward Chris, and offered him a job and a home. The Captain Jarvos- Mystical Oddity and Circus, was a small time traveling affair. Their shows consisted of various costumed themed play and feats of daring acrobatics, the main event was Archery, where Chris Honed his skills as the amazing Knight Ranger!
Chris learned the art of Archery so well, that his tricks and precise shot became legendary..so much so that the show became an international hit. Captain Jarvos was the ringmaster of the Circus company, but had harbored a secret..his family was in the possession of a rare and powerful jewel.. the Glimmer stone. Legend had it that the Glimmer Stone was once a tear shed by the God Apollo that had quickly frozen in the Tundra Air of northern Canada, and that if worn would give it's wearer the ability to see to the ends of the world, and the unknown beings behind the veil of reality..
One fateful night, a fire awoke Chris, and he rushed to find that his entire circus caravan was under attack by strange creatures..they were the Oni soldiers of the Evil Dark Demon Lord Akuma..the Oni soldiers were sent on a mission to secure the Glimmer stone jewel and bring it back to their master..
Taking his Bow and Arrows, and donning the circus costume of his character the Knight Ranger, Chris fought off the attack and saved most of his fellow circus friends, until he came face to face with the Jackalman..a highly dangerous hybrid demon and Jackal..As the Knight ranger fought the ferocious beast, the Super Sentinel, who had been tracking Akuma's troop movements, arrived and helped turn the tide of the battle in their favor.
Chris was given the jewel, by Captain Jarvos for safe keeping, and decided to place it in Chris's costume helmet. Super Sentinel persuaded Chris to join his cause to destroy the villainous Akuma, and their search to dominate the world. Christopher Marco now lives in Los Angeles, and hides his extra Arms with the use of a personal Holographic generator. this allows him to stride in public with no one knowing his identity.. and giving him a seemingly normal private life. Chris works for Cross Industries and is in charge of the aerodynamic test division..
The Knight Ranger is an expert marksman with a bow and arrow. His main weapons of choice, and with his super strength, he can hurl a volley of arrows at a target over 150 yards away..with almost 100% accuracy. The Knight Ranger is versed in hand to hand combat techniques, as well as knife fighting. He can use various assault rifles and hand guns, as well as short swords. His weapons of choice are the bow and arrows, with back up knives and short swords for tight battles..The Knight Ranger is a valuable Member of the Supreme Enforcers.

actually the arms and the design of how the 4 arms would work are based on some science fiction anatomy designs which show that a second set of shoulder muscles and bone structures to support that could work.. which is how I did this guy..
had i just stuck arms on his waist like that of Goru from Mortal combat, it would not work.

I really like his design and his story, every bit of it!
He would also be very effective with four pistols.

thanks!! I designed the costume to be like green and black so that he had that forest ranger fantasy feel to him, plus he could remain camouflaged and strike enemies form a point of security..

He could actually shoot a bow and arrow on both sides! And taking him on in a sword fight would be like fighting General Greivous from Star Wars...This guy is gonna be a great one! By the way I love the idea of the Glimmer Stone and the Jackalman!!

Now, this is a crazy thought, but i was thinking; his obvious advantage to being an archer with 4 arms is that he could either use two for the bow and two for blades, or 1 for the bow and two for two arrows. Thats nifty, but it leaves one of his arms (of which side is holding the bow) idle.
What if he was so good, he used 2 bows? His upper arms would hold the bows while his lower arms would draw them. It's hard to describe in test what it would look like, but in my head I see him aiming in a sort of /^\ form, his torso strait but his arms out to the sides. Granted this would not be something he would do often as he would need his attention on each shot going in different directions, but it would definitely be something new.

skywarp-2 In reply to AnimaRaptor [2009-05-24 17:41:37 +0000 UTC]
no that's exactly what i thought back when i first designed him!! nice to know someone else thinks as I do.. LOL what he could do is use both bows, and fire the arrows from the outside with the under 2nd arms..like this early design had him kinda doing..[link]
but I think that what he could do in a full out brawl, was to start from a distance with his compound bow, then as he moves in closer he starts with a 12 shot reloadable Crossbow, which he has 4 of!! and then switches to the large swords, with the short blades as back ups.. and then if need be even uses his throwing knives.. and finally his fists.. now that's an arsenal of power!!!

AnimaRaptor In reply to skywarp-2 [2009-05-24 20:13:02 +0000 UTC]
Yeah there we go XD
Although in my head, i saw his lower arms crossing over, i.e., the lower right draws the bow on the upper left, and the opposite respectively. If he used the same lower arm to draw on the same upper arm, it would be too short of a pull, and it would look cool to have his arms crossing over each other.
On the note of the Xbows, even if it has a magazine, it would require a hand to re-cock the thing, so how about the lower arms carry knives, but the pommel of the handle has a hook, so when he re-draws the Xbow, he doesnt have to free his lower hands to do so?

EricLinquist In reply to AnimaRaptor [2009-05-24 10:54:08 +0000 UTC]
Hm. What if on the upper set the right hand held the (instantly collapsable) bow, and then on the lower set the left hand holds the bow. This would preclude having to shoot out arrows in basically opposite directions. In fact, both bows could shoot multiple arrows at the exact same target ahead of him. Give him some type of radar sense (the Glimmer Stone?) and he wouldn't even have to use his eyes to aim!
Great concept, Adam!

thanks man, that is exactly what the glimmer stone does, it gives him that extra perception, and his shots are soooo accurate.. like he can shoot an arrow, and hit a vital target, say machinery as the rest of the Supreme enforcers is charging into battle.. think a hyper version of Legolas form Lord of the rings..
