Biography
Origin

Personality
Esbjörn is perhaps the most mysterious individual of the others, being characterised as a taciturn, acerbic, phlegmatic and reticent character. Despite his stoic and monosyllabic nature, Esbjörn is a rather reserved and kind being, often approaching situations with great curiosity and a committed can-do attitude. While Esbjörn is indeed introverted and distant, knowing very little of what could be considered 'normal' or 'human' and doing many unusual things, he tends to be the most humane of the Enforcers, never seeming to need the affirmation or approval of others as well as being surprisingly confident in spite of very few words. Most of the time, in conjunction with his acute perception, Esbjörn finds letting his actions speak for him as being a greater alternative to speech, enabling him to best observe and read a room first before acting upon anything - showing his considerate and attentive side.

To many Esbjörn's initial lack of emotion throws them off, but his patience and calm compassion with all kinds makes him an enamoured and oddly respected figure. This is mostly because of his appropriate austerity in moments of danger. Esbjörn deeply cares for his friends and regularly tries to protect them, acting like a guardian and caretaker to them, and is loyal to the very end. Unlike the others, Esbjörn is quite unafraid of being attached and close to them, showing rare and even inspiring authenticity. In addition, he has been shown to be unafraid of being effeminate at times, adding to his lack of social awareness and silent, deadpan presentation. Somehow in spite of being mute most of the time, most who interact with Esbjörn come to a mutual love and understanding through many of actions. Esbjörn is overall gentle and empathetic, exuding warmth and goodwill.

Esbjörn's enigmatic nature gives him an ethereal presence and is sometimes regarded as being mystical and otherworldly. His powers, abilities and activities indeed make him out to be quite spiritually-minded, owning obviously transcendent powers that have, so far, been shown as equal or even greater than most other beings. Unfortunately, the frustrating lack of a true definitive origin leaves much of his character cryptic, though more information has been unveiled over time about his capabilities.

On the other hand, Esbjörn's unconventional (if often humorous) actions are reasoned to be his minute knowledge of social understanding due to his concealed past. As a result, Esbjörn is seen to be constantly fascinated with things that seem foreign to him while still treating them with respect. He is shown to have a particular fondness for music and possesses unexpected talent and mastery in a variety of instruments such as the violin. In addition, he spends a lot of time on various physical activities and has shown ingenuity and intelligence within them.

Nevertheless in times of extreme stress, usually when concerned with great personal consequence, Esbjörn is capable of displaying extreme fury and anger, thus exerting immense amounts of power and strength. In fact, several aspects seem to imply that Esbjörn is quite possibly much more powerful both physically and mentally than he appears to be, though since he never uses this it is possible he sees it as unnecessary.

Powers

 * Aether Manipulation: Esbjorn can create, shape and manipulate Aether, a powerful and unique celestial element said to flow throughout the universe. Commonly recognized as the essence breathed by gods in the same way humans breathe air, Aether is a power that allows control over elemental, cosmic, spiritual, and transcendental forces. Regarded as divine power, users that can control Aether are considered god-like, essentially becoming invincible.
 * Aura:
 * Crystal Manipulation: Powered and enlivened by crystals, Esbjorn can create, shape and manipulate crystals and crystalline materials: homogenous solids formed by a repeating, three-dimensional pattern of atoms, ions, or molecules and having fixed distances between constituent parts. However, Esbjorn is unable to create crystals through this ability, only purely absorbing and using existing sources to empowder himself. In addition, much of these attacks are very easily countered by either sound and vibration manipulation, with certain frequencies shattering them.
 * Crystal Attacks: Esbjorn can release/use crystals to attacks of various shapes and/or intensities, either projected, used as a part of melee attacks, etc. As with all his attacks, Esbjorn requires sources of crystals to create his attacks, and is also limited by sonic waves.
 * Crystallokinetic Combat: One of Esbjorn's major ways of attack, he fights using a combination of impaling crystals, walls for defense, and tricking the opponent into finding a flaw only to find it is a trap.
 * Crystal Generation: Esbjorn can create crystals from the surrounding environment and use them for a variety of purposes
 * Crystal Infusion: Esbjorn can infuse objects (usually a weapon), beings or powers with elemental forces via crystals, empowering and energizing them and allowing him to manipulate their qualities and efficiency. Depending on the type of element that the object is infuse, it can posses a variety of abilities and be very effective in both offensive and defensive combat.
 * Crystallization: Esbjorn can transform matter and objects, including living beings and even himself, into crystal, albeit mostly only temporarily. These transmutations can also be undone.
 * Crystallokinetic Constructs: Esbjorn can turn crystals into tools, objects, weapons, shields, and other items, create semi-living constructs and/or create structures/buildings of varying permanence; which can be created by viewing or imagining. Having mastered this ability, it can be used or almost any situation, creating anything he needs need. Nevertheless, the structural strength of these constructs are limited depending on the crystals Esbjorn uses.
 * Crystal Exoskeleton: Esbjorn can form armor around their body or shape it from crystal and crystalline materials for protection and physical boost. With training, Esbjorn learnt to shape the armor into new forms for weapons, transportation, even constructs of the element; making it fluid. He can also use it for deflecting beam-based attacks, making them near useless. However, the vulnerability of Esbjorn's heart - where his crystals are inserted - can shatter this armor, as well as him.
 * Crystal Weaponry: Esbjorn can create or wield weaponry with power over crystal, granting him a wide variety of crystal-based abilities. This ability is not only specific to mystic weapons, but also technologically advanced weapons. The power of the weapons depends on what they were created for or what level of crystal-based ability he posseses, which is somewhat high level. As of currently, he is only able to use one kind of crystal at a time.
 * Crystal Beam Emission: Esbjorn can emit beams composed of crystals/crystalline energy.
 * Crystal Blast: Esbjorn can release crystals over a specific target area, causing great damage and/or delivering great shock waves of pure force.
 * Crystal Bolt Projection: Esbjorn can create and project bolts of element/energy and control the intensity/power of their projectiles. The bolts aren't weak, but they aren't as powerful as a full powered attack. These bolts could be used to stun, burn, injure, or even penetrate/stab the enemy.
 * Crystal Cutting: Esbjorn can project the elements in a way that allows them to cut through matter from a distance. Although this attack does usually slashing damage, he is able to focus it into single piercing stab like immaterial bullet.
 * Crystal Pillar Projection: Esbjorn can shape crystals to generate pillars for attacks. He is slightly able to guide the pillars, effective in both offensive, defensive and even trapping the targets in combat.
 * Crystal Spike Projection: Esbjorn can create and project needles/spikes of crystal to impale targets. These spikes can be projected in mid-air or generated from the ground; potentially creating a trail of needles.
 * Crystal Wave Emission: Esbjorn can release waves, spirals or rings of crystals, causing damage by the hit or the cut, or even imprison the target; repelling almost everything.
 * Expanding Crystal Bolts: Esbjorn can launch bolts of energy/matter that expand rapidly on contact with target or when it reaches the chosen place.
 * Hand Blasts: Esbjorn is able to project blasts of energy/matter from their hands, being able to cause cutting, impaling, concussive, etc. damage. Depending on what the beam is composed, it can posses a variety of additional effects.
 * Hidden Attacks: Esbjorn can channel/send their attacks/techniques inside/through some medium (ground, water, air, object, etc.) to hit from an unexpected angle. The attacks/techniques can be triggered when they make contact with their intended target or they are projectiles that are aiming for their targets.
 * Omnidirectional Crystal Waves: Esbjorn can release massive amounts of earthly materials in every direction at once for almost unlimited scales. This ability allows him to dispatch many foes at once, sending out a wave of crystals in all directions
 * Scatter Shot: Esbjorn is able to generate and launch projectiles, whether energy, elemental or physical, that can split up into several smaller ones, enabling them to hit a wider range of targets. These multiple fragments can be quite dangerous, though they are much weaker than a whole attack normally would.
 * Wave Motion Blast: Esbjorn can emit/release an enormous and destructive wave of energy at the desired target and most likely destroy the surrounding area. This releases a lot of energy, and the time required to charge this up and then recharge means this is not used as much.
 * Crystal Aura:
 * Power Augmentation: Through the type of crystal he uses, Esbjorn can enhance his strength, durability and general powers of himself so that he can reach high level mastery and control instantaneously, even reach a level of power that is usually beyond their limits alone. Esbjorn cannot steal or give power, nor can he enhance the ones targets already have.
 * Mystical/Crystal Healing: Deriving from the type of crystal, Esbjorn can use their magical properties and energies to heal others or themselves. Its efficiency depends on the amount of crystal being used.

Skills


Generates energy from crystals; crystals can diminish over time; different crystals equal different powers (e.g: healing); has to create crystals

Trivia

 * The name Esbjörn is the Swedish younger form of the Old Norse given name Æsbiorn ( Ásbjörn) and Asbjørnsen, derived from the elements áss ("heathen god", "god", "deity") and bjǫrn ("bear", "wild animal". The Old Norse figurative form means “god gave to me the strength as a bear", therefore loosely translating as 'Bear of the gods.'
 * Esbjörn responds to almost all pronouns. This is due to the fact that his gender is ambiguous or at least potentially fluid in his own mind.
