History

History: Born in Humboldt, California on March 16th, 1986 to Derrick and Katy Landers, Cadence had, for the most part, a fairly typical childhood, only to have it end abruptly only two weeks after his sixth birthday; this would be when his metahuman abilities first manifested with him accidentally leaving his fathers new Corvette nothing more than a pile of torn apart atoms in the wake of a temper fit; it was not long after this incident that Cadence's future mentor and father; Hanzo Kazaki would show up at the families door, explaining to his parents that his powers would only grow stronger and that he could help train the young boy to control them in a safe environment. Whether it was out of love for their son or fear of him that they agreed to sign over guardianship to Hanzo and sent their son on the first step on his path to becoming the man he is now.

Spending the remaining years of his childhood studying, training and playing with the other children in a small, remote village near the Baikai Mountains of Siberia, Cadences life also consisted of learning the arts of stealth and swordplay while keeping up with his schooling under the tutelage of Hanzo's wife; Kanako. All of the studying in so many different fields might prove too much for some, but Cadence thrived in it. Driven by his naturally curious nature, he studied and learned anything and everything he could cram into his mind; he was utterly fascinated by the lessons of his new family and the skills they wielded, just as much as he was fascinated by his own powers and the laws of nature that he had grown to be able to bend to his will.

Cadence's life would change once again with the diagnosis of the man he now considered his father; Stage Two Pancreatic cancer. While this could have been treated and possibly saved his life, Hanzo declined any treatments, saying that he saw this as his calling card to rest and that it was now his son's turn to use the families knowledge and resources to do the best he could for the world and leave it a better place than when he entered it.

After his father's death, Cadence used the amassed fortune his family had gathered over the years to found Landercorp International; a research and development company that has managed to rise in power with incredible speed, gaining a strong hold on many government contracts, using his position as CEO of the company, Cadence has since used Landercorp to further mankind in any ways they can. It was during this rise of Landercorp international that Cadence made the choice, with full public knoweledge, to become a hero among the people and use his gifts not only to further the world through the exploration of science, but through the moral duty of protecting innocents from harm.

Equipment

• Combat Armor - A specially designed armor that was developed by Landercorp by using the same fiber layering pattern found within the Mantis Shrimp's powerful club appendages. This design has allowed for major advancements in the design of personal body armors; allowing them to be lighter, more durable and to withstand more force. The drawbacks however are the relatively long manufacturing times and the required separation of armor plates to allow flexibility.

• Sourubureido & Shitsumei -

• Roped Kunai -

• Use of Toxins -

• Other Devices -

Skills & Abilities

• Space-time Manipulation - Cadence's mind is developed in such a way as to allow him to perceive and manipulate the fabric of space-time within a moderate range, this power allows him to perform a multitude of feats such as; Bi-location, teleportation, Matter separation and fusion, Spatial expansion and reduction, projectile re-direction and Matter configuration.

• Muga Ryu Ninjutsu -

• Kenjutsu' -

• Shéng Biāo -

Weaknesses

• Metahuman Powers, Very human body - While Cadence, through training, has managed to develop an immunity to certain poisons and, to a certain degree, harsher climates, his body is still very limited in it's capability to withstand most forms of injury. This leaves him to rely heavily on his agility and armor to survive when stealth is no longer an option.

Allies

Ramiel

"You're a Linguistics Major? And here I only learned Japanese so I could understand what my mom was cursing me out about."

While a fairly new addition to the "Project: On-Call" roster, Cadence has a respect and fascination with Ramiel; respect of her intelligence and fascination of her acting as a vessel for an Angel, he is, however, still testing the waters on how much he can troll the angel.

Pigeon

"You're just cuddles on toast, aren't you?"

Pigeon is, quite possibly, one of Cadence's favorite co-members of "Project: On-Call" He values her optimism and constantly wonderous nature. Her ingenuity is one Cadence sees as being second-to-none and hard to match.

Noah Ark

"We settle this as man was intended, thumb war!"

Noah and Cadence, while more casual friends, have maintained a closeness in their mutual love of comedy and in trolling others within Project: On-Call. They hold a strong mutual respect for each other as fellow warriors, however, Cadence will politely decline an offer of any of Noah's homecooked meals.

SoulStar

"What does it mean to nig?"

Soulstar and Cade have grown to be close over their time working together, often seeing each other as opposite sides of the same coin, there are few who know as much about Cadence and his past as SoulStar and fewer still he will openly discuss it with. SoulStar is also often the target for Cadence's blatant trolling efforts.

Nemesis

Tasha Vargas
Cadence's closest childhood friend, they where raised, trained, and educated together since they where little. What caused such a deep rift between them is still unknown and efforts to uncover it have been repeatedly refused; what is known however is that Tasha left the clan of the ones that had trained them and through unknown means created a clan of her own and has been after Cadence in particular ever since.

"Bad blood, worse temper."
