Davis' might very well have been destined to die as an infant. While initially a healthy and vigorous little bundle of life, only a week after his conception did he take extremely ill. His body temperature was constantly rising and he grew thinner with each passing day, crying constantly as if in pain. However still, no doctor anywhere could find any answers as to what was plaguing the young infant, as all tests concluded that he was indeed healthy. That gave his desperate parents little comfort, as the child didn't seem to get any better. Desperate, they eventually turned to alternative medicines, yet even there they would not find salvation for their dying son. That was, until they came into contact with Fei Fumen, a seemingly inconspicous acupuncturist working out of a small dojo in Chinatown.

When the infant was brought before her, the old lady immedietally knew what was the cause of his suffering: The boy had extraordinary levels of chi within his body, but somehow they had been tainted by the Dragon's influence and were now slowly killing the child from within. Using everything she knew about old medicine, Lady Fumen and her daughter Xiang managed to cull the foul influence, though they couldn't purify it entirely as they were. For Davis to be completely free of the foul essence of the dragon, Lady Fumen would need to bring him before the masters at the Yengtao temple in China. Left with little choice but to believe the old lady, Davis' parents made preparations to move to China almost immedietally, together with Lady Fumen, her daughter Linli Marcus and her son-in-law Eddie Marcus.

Left with little choice but to believe the old lady, Davis' parents made preparations to fly to Tibet almost immedietally, together with Lady Fumen, her daughter Linli Marcus and her son-in-law Eddie Marcus.
  
At the temple, Lady Fumen managed to gather enough Chi with the help of local monks in order to expel the entirety of the Dragon's essence from Davis' body, completely purifying him in body and soul. The child got better almost immedietally, to his parent's great joy and relief. However, there was still worry to be had about the young child. Lady Fumen believed that the child wasn't targeted like this for nothing, and that there was still a chance that agents of the Dragon would still, for whatever reason, attempt to once again infuse the child with the Dragon's essence if they were given the chance. Lady Fumen asked to have the child study with her, among the untamed mountains of Asia, in order to master his chi so that it couldn't be sullied once more. While reluctant, Davis' parents were soon talked into it by local monks who shared Lady Fumen's worries. And so they set off, traveling into the mountains of Tibet to prepare for the young boy's training. While Linli and her husband returned to America, Davis' parents settled down in a small, unnamed village at the foot of the mountain range together with Lady Fumen, taking up the humble life of a couple of yak herders in order to be close to the boy at all times.

Davis' training began the moment he could walk. He could throw a punch before he could make a proper sentence and knew the concepts of Chi and spiritual energy before he could write or read. As he grew older, his training grew harsher and kept pushing him past the limits of someone his age. His parents were always worried about him, naturally, but there was little they could do at this point. While Lady Fumen handled his martial training, they made sure he was equipped with the necessery skillset and academics to make it out there in the world, as well. Between the martial training, ruthless physical regiment and mundane academics at home, there wasn't much free time for the young boy to talk about.

As the years passed, Davis would grow into a headstrong young man. He showed proof of his talent at an early age, mastering the basics of martial arts at 6, and Chi Manipulation at the tender age of 7. In only 8 more years, he would master the first of two forms that Lady Fumen aimed to teach him, Form of the Great Temple Gate. Lady Fumen eventually revealed that she had another reason for training him, and that was to prepare him for the next time the Tournament of the Dragon came about. She aimed to have him enter it when the time was ripe and fight against the very best martial artists on the planet, all for the sake of the duty to protect the world from the Death Dragon. However, this knowledge came as a shock to Davis' parents, who were not quite as happy with Fumen's plans for their one and only son. It didn't matter at all to them that he had spent his entire life preparing for such an endeavor and wanted to hear no such word of it. That soon changed when they were all attacked by Agents of the Dragon, who had finally caught wind of where Lady Fumen had hid away. Even so, their numbers proved no match for Lady Fumen. Not even for the young Davis, who before his parents effortlessly vanquished any and all attackers coming for them. Stunned and amazed, they soon realized that their son had been gifted with powers beyond their understanding.

However, Lady Fumen sensed that something was off with this attack, and the Dragon's disciples being so close to the Yengtao Temple. Unable to shake off her feelings of unease, she told Davis' parents that they should return to the States and find her daughter, to complete Davis' training within the second stance, Purifying Damnation's Fist, which he had yet to master. After parting ways, Davis was set to return to his home for the first time in his life.

His training with Linli was brief, but intense. She had inherited her mother's unforgiving sense of discipline and would hear no excuses. Even if Davis had a hard time adapting to life within the city, he was given no quarter by his new teacher. But while his time with her was intense, it ended up becoming very brief. Linli soon caught word that the Yengtao temple had been destroyed, and her mother was missing. Putting two and two together, Linli got to the conclusion that her mother had perished during the destruction, and that got her furious. Almost without warning, she sent Maverick off to train on his own as a "Superhero" in Millenium city, while she herself adopted the persona of "Fang of the Sixth Heaven" as she set out on a crusade to find those responsible for her mother's demise.

Early Life

Davis' might very well have been destined to die as an infant. While initially a healthy and vigorous little bundle of life, only a week after his conception did he take extremely ill. His body temperature was constantly rising and he grew thinner with each passing day, crying constantly as if in pain. However still, no doctor anywhere could find any answers as to what was plaguing the young infant, as all tests concluded that he was indeed healthy. That gave his desperate parents little comfort, as the child didn't seem to get any better. Desperate, they eventually turned to alternative medicines, yet even there they would not find salvation for their dying son. That was, until they came into contact with Fei Fumen, a seemingly inconspicous acupuncturist working out of a small dojo in Chinatown.

When the infant was brought before her, the old lady immedietally knew what was the cause of his suffering: The boy had extraordinary levels of chi within his body, but somehow they had been tainted by the Dragon's influence and were now slowly killing the child from within. Using everything she knew about old medicine, Lady Fumen and her daughter Linli managed to cull the foul influence, though they couldn't purify it entirely as they were. For Davis to be completely free of the foul essence of the dragon, Lady Fumen would need to bring him to a "The spring of Complete Purity", a mythical mountain river hidden deep within the Tibetan mountains.

Champion in the Making

As the years passed, Davis would grow into a headstrong young man. He showed proof of his talent at an early age, mastering the basics of martial arts at 6, and Chi Manipulation at the tender age of 7. In only 8 more years, he would master the first of two forms that Lady Fumen aimed to teach him, Form of the Great Temple Gate.

MavBanner2.pngPersonal File

Personality

Davis' personality type is ENFJ: Extraverted, Intuitive, Feeling, Judging, of the Assertive kind.

Davis' most striking trait is his burning eagerness to do right and find new experiences to learn from. Despite his upbringing being rather secluded, he's an extremely sociable and friendly kid who likes nothing more than meeting new people and making new friends. His disposition is generally open and welcoming unless he finds a reason to act otherwise, which is very rare for him since he tends to think the best of everyone he meets, possessing a very trusting and intuitive nature. This also leaves him somewhat naive and he can come across as slow-witted at times, though he's by no means stupid or easily mislead. While his childhood in the mountains left something to be wished for in terms of worldliness, he's in returned gained wisdom and willpower beyond his years.

Davis is a spiritual young man with a moral code made of iron. His conviction is nearly unbreakable and though through experience, he can come to doubt himself at times, he will always trust in his moral compass to guide him towards the right answer. He keeps himself under a strict regiment in order to remain disciplined and focused on his task, holding it to an almost sacred regard. He strongly believes in the "Superheroic" code, that no single human is to be the judge, jury and executioner, and follows the law in that regard without question. Although it should be noted that while his own moral code is strong, he's prone to confusion and doubt in the few instances where it clashes with established laws.

Davis' confidence is strong, but brittle. He can handle loss well, as it teaches him lessons that victory can't, but should his shortcomings result in the injury of the innocent, then that will strike him hard and cause him immense emotional distress. Davis' confidence only extends to himself and what he knows, to the point where he might not even consider the powers beyond his reach. His one-track mind responds well to challenges that are within his ability to step up to, but when something threatens to change his perception of truth, then he's more likely to grow doubtful of his own abilities and wether they're up to the task.
