Description
Rising Sun (Kyokujitsu - 旭日) is my own (copyrighted) creation and an original character concept realized with HeroMachine3.

Born shortly after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima on August 6, 1945 Toshi Akamura was mutated by radioactive isotopes in his mother's womb who consequently died of radiation poisoning after giving birth to him. Confronted with discrimination as a Hibakusha due to lack of knowledge about the effects of radiation sickness, of which many people believed that it was hereditary or even contagious, Toshi grew up in an orphanage until the age of 16 when he suddenly started to develop strange powers, which attracted the attention of senior scientists.

It was determined that Toshi has the ability to absorb and expel high levels of radiation for a number of purposes and effects such as firing blasts of solid radiation in the form of powerful concussive blasts or emitting radiation in the form of intense heat that, at maximum temperature, is said to be hot enough to incinerate a city block. His abilities allow him to melt and mutate human flesh with a touch and they also slow down his aging considerably.

Funded by the Japanese government who wanted to make him its superhuman flagship, Toshi underwent extensive training in several Japanese martial arts and became a highly skilled grandmaster of Jujutsu/Aikijujutsu, Karate Do, Bujutsu, Tantojutsu (knife-fighting), Ninjutsu, and Kenjutsu - the art of wielding a katana which he can charge (like any other object) with nuclear energy, allowing them to cut through almost any substance.
