Name: Grant Staley
Age: 28
Sex: Male
Nationality: African-American
Occupation: Acrobat (formerly)
Species: Human
Celebrity Claim:Christopher Barbers
Hair color/style: Black, somewhat dread-lock-like, but short. It hangs down barely any on his forehead, and partially covers his ears, going down to around chin level in the back.
Eyes: Brown

Rider Stuff
Name: Kamen Rider Camo
Henshin Device/Sequence: He holds his Advent Deck out, sending green lightning to his waist to form his belt. He slides the deck in, calling out “Kamen Rider!”. Twin rings fly around him to form his armor.
Forms:
- Form Name: Kamen Rider Camo
Appearance: Camo
Transformation: See above
Weapons and Abilities:- Attack Vent: Summons Biogreeza to directly attack his opponents.
- Clear Vent: Camo becomes cloaked.
- Hold Vent: Conjures a yo-yo like weapon.
- Copy Vent: Copies a target Kamen Rider's appearance.
- Survive: Causes him to assume Survive Mode.
- Final Vent: Summons Biogreeza for Camo's Final Vent. It has Biogreeza wrapping his tongue around Camo and swing him towards an opponent where Kamen Rider Camo grabs the enemy and does a piledriver on the enemy after being thrown.
- Link Vent: Unites and unleashes the power of all 13 Final Vents.
Finisher(s): Final Vent - Attack Vent: Summons Biogreeza to directly attack his opponents.
- Form Name: Kamen Rider Camo Survive
Appearance: Camo Survive
Transformation: He draws his Survive Card and places it on the tongue of his Bio Visor. The Visor becomes larger, spikier, and then draws the card down. In a gale of wind, he transforms from Bio Visor Zwei.
Weapons and Abilities:- Attack Vent: Summons BiogaGreeza to attack his opponents. BiograGreeza is like BioGreeza, but horned, more thickly armored, still as stealthy and fast, but much stronger.
- Disorient Vent: Can either make Grant invisible, or can blind the opponent (for less time than the invisibility would last)
- Swing Vent: Summons a coiled tongue-like whip that ends in multiple lashes, long and thin.
- Smoke Vent: Causes smoke bombs to appear in his hands for throwing and creating smokescreens. Summons two initially, can summon up to six.
- Final Vent: BiograGreeza appears, grabbing the opponent from behind, digging spikes from his inner arms into the body. He lashes his tongue out to further bind the victim to himself. Camo Survive rushes forward, leaps up and lands an axe kick on the exposed head of the enemy, then with help from BiograGreeza’s head, is flipped into the air. The monster throws the enemy up, still bound in the tongue. Camo spins around in the air, coming down with a spinning full body attack head-on.
- Alternatively, BiograGreeza becomes a short, powerful motorcycle (wheels from the limbs put together, head becomes the front, sits on the back and has spikes lining the sides). The tongue lashes out to impale the foe, and he crashes into the foe with full speed/a spinning attack with the bike.
Finisher(s): Final Vent - Attack Vent: Summons BiogaGreeza to attack his opponents. BiograGreeza is like BioGreeza, but horned, more thickly armored, still as stealthy and fast, but much stronger.

Personality: Grant has always been a good man, kind and caring, only wanting to make people happy by entertaining them. After his accident, he was forced to do things he didn’t want to, becoming cold, lonely, following orders to pay his debts. He doesn’t like what he does, but has to do these things for any chance of returning to his job, which he loved and still loves very dearly. He’s smart, clever, sly, and very vast, with pretty good book learning to back him up. His main skill lies in his acrobatics, and his self-made fighting style, incorporating many tricks of his job into combat, making him unpredictable and deadly.
Strengths:
- Fast and agile
- His entire fighting style
- Basically being double faced, and being rather good at it, despite not wanting to do it
Weaknesses:
- He doesn’t like having to do any of this; he’s essentially being blackmailed, and knows it
- His fighting style is self-taught from acrobatic training from his past; it might not be too effective, and would be worthless in a vast open environment
- Not much weaponry/power in his deck
History: Grant grew up in a predominantly white neighborhood, so he was basically viewed as an outcast. He started to love the circus, which was often around, going as often as he could to put his mind away from life. He developed a love for the acrobatic work they did, and wanted to do that with his life.
At age sixteen he left school and started to practice with anyone from the circus who would help him. He picked up acrobatics quickly, having prepared for years for this. When he was eighteen he joined a circus and lived as an acrobat ever since, for the circus, and for anywhere else that would hire him, as his skills improved and he specialized in specific areas of acrobatics that some wanted exclusively to show off.
Right before JTC’s death/Venting, Grant was pulling off a difficult but often performed (by him) move, expecting once more to be perfect. Something went wrong – outside forces – and he missed his landing, shattering his right leg in the process. He was taken to the hospital and told his leg was too damaged to be of use ever again, and he should probably amputate. He refused to believe his performing days were over, that he would lose everything he loved.
A man came to him, and promised him to fix everything…
Anything Else: Played by Ren.
Sample RP:
Amputate…the word resonated within him for long moments. He could never do that. No! He would refuse to. No matter what, he wouldn’t give up his leg. Not when he performed like this…not when it was everything to him in life.
Performing – or even practicing – was the only thing that he had. He looked forward to it every morning when he woke up, and dreamt of it nightly as he slept. How could he just give up and accept that he would never perform again? Or walk again, for that matter?
He looked out the window from his room in the hospital. If his leg was unable to be healed…he would take his own life. That was his decision.
