Profile

"Brother, until the day comes that you're by my side again... I won't lose to anyone!"

A fighter and member of the Berserkers, originally from the Olympus gate. Though he was once a full-fledged god, because he shared his blood with his brother a portion of his power was shared as well, and only the right side of his body is still divine. The two are connected by this blood bond, and Pollux has come to Tokyo in search of his brother, believing him to be wandering the country for unknown reasons. As his own body is all but immortal, Pollux feels respect for humans who fight bravely, even at the risk of death. For the time being, he has grown accustomed to staying with the Berserkers guild, as their methodology of Might Makes Right suits him well, and he has come to enjoy the company of the man whose fist is wreathed in lightning in particular.

His steel gauntlets are a sacred treasure created by a master blacksmith back home. Typically, Pollux keeps them wrapped in a soft caestus for the sake of making battles a little more fun. But when he's acknowledged an opponent as someone to take seriously the seals are unraveled, and his right fist, glowing with the lightning of the father of the gods, tears through enemies with meteoric power. Because he fights only with his fists his range is short, but the power behind each punch is unrivaled. He feels nothing but contempt for what he considers cowardly fighters who rely on ranged weapons.

Notes

In Greco-Roman myth, Pollux was a demigod born of Princess Leda and Zeus (at the time, in the form of a swan.) His brother Castor, however was born of a mortal father. When Castor died, Pollux shared his immortality with him, and they became the Twin Gemini constellation.
