LISTEN UP!
[The barking order and picture come through simultaneously, revealing (to some of you) a familiar face. However for those that do know him there are a few things different. Namely his cropped hair and rat tail have been replaced by a full mane of blue hair, tied back into a loose ponytail. Not to mention his usual blue body suit has been changed out for a set of light and functional armor.
And per usual, the feed is coming from an elevated position. Namely a shot of "Lancer" standing, arms crossed, on the ledge of what is most certainly a skyscraper with a gorgeous view of Heropa.]
I've got a lot to say and I'm only saying it once.
First off, there is a strange concept in this day and age that heroes should act from behind a mask. Well, its not that I'm incapable of understanding why people would choose to live like that.[He smiles, planting his hands on his hips.] I just think its ridiculous.
No one should have to fear retaliation for acting with honor and living in the service of others. And to prove that I'll remove a "mask" of my own. Those that know me do so by the name "Lancer". But that is only a mask forced upon me by a life that is no longer mine to bear. It was given to protect my identity from those that saught to end my life. Though designed to protect me it served more as a chain to bind my fate.
[And with that he slams his gauntleted fist against his breast with an impact so loud it could be mistaken for a hammer blow.]
I hereby declare myself by my true name. I am Cu Chulainn! (Coo-hull-en) Son of King Lugh of the Tuatha Dé Danann, and First Knight of the Red Branch of Ulster. Know me. And know that I stand before you born anew. The lives I have lived before coming here are no longer of consequence. I shall not be bound to the fates or the rule of another without my consent.
As such, I declare all past slights against me, all rivalries and enemies hereby pardoned. I, who has conquered death itself, name myself as a true ally of the ImPorts of this world. I would have you know me as brother and know that my spear is yours if you should desire it.
Speak if you have a need and know that in this dark time, I shall be looking out for you.

[There is a very soft, but still present under tone of pain.]
Not only is my life, my world over completely. But now I cannot even enjoy the memory of it.
no subject
All the memories you need are already in your head.
no subject
[A bit of bitterness creeps into his disposition.]
To want a little more than personal satisfaction over what I've achieved. What I stood for.
no subject
You still stand for it, whether or not they know.
