Personality and Appearance-
Anasazi is taller than average, dark skinned and sports several different hairstyles at any point in time. He tends to switch it between braids, dreadlocks, twists, and leaving his afro out. He does it for fun mostly, but also because he does not like to keep the same hairstyle as it makes him significantly easier to identify. He also does not have one sort of way he dresses and tends to keep his appearance in that regard fluid, also to deter any would be followers or anyone who is trying to identify him.
He is not cruel or vindictive, but he isn't especially kind either. When he has a goal in mind he sees it through to the end no matter what the cost and does not accept any excuses. In his line of work, someone cannot afford to have any excuses and can only ever have to deliver. There can be no reasons why a job wasn't performed or you end up in the crosshairs yourself.
Anasazi is quite quick to violence. With the sort of individuals he deals with, you cannot afford to appear weak and most of the time the only strength these people understood was violence, which meant it was the path he had to walk as well. He does not accept rudeness and will attempt to put anyone down who gets snarky to him to unwarranted. He is not rude to people and does not expect them to be rude to him.
At any given point in time he is going to have at least one weapon on him. Depending on what it is the number may vary, but even at his most unequipped he has a small combat knife hidden in his boot.
Abilities/Powers/Skills-
Flawless Coordination: Anasazi is in tune to the world about him to a degree far higher than that of most human beings. The link between his mind, his body, and the environment around him is solid to the point that he is able to perform almost any physical act he thinks about that is within the human capability. He is capable of scaling tall buildings and swimming deep oceans, performing incredible feats of agility and flexibility including several flips in the air as well as twisting and contorting his body. This also includes his hand eye coordination, and he is capable of throwing a pen into the barrel of a gun from several meters away. This ability makes him a world class marskman and a shooter of the highest calibre.
Combat Prowess: Because Anasazi has been a fighter for most of his life, his ability extends to his fighting skills, his coordination and ability to perform taking his combat skills to new heights.
a. Adaptation: Anasazi is able to adapt to other's fighting styles quite quickly. When faced with a style he is unfamiliar with, he might be surprised by the first few moves, but once he is into it, he will begin to see the patterns of the fighting style and know how to effectively counter even if he is not knowledgeable on the moves and techniques.
b. Weapon Proficiency: Once he has learnt how to use a weapon effectively without harming himself, his familiarity with it allows him to begin to imagine and perform scenarios with those weapons that would be considered extraordinary. Balancing the hilt of a sword on the tip of another sword during combat for example, tossing and catching weapons, and flipping and dexterously handling other weapons.
c. Quick Fighting: Because his ability stems from his imagination, and he is able to anticipate his own actions and movements, most of his fighting is very fast paced. He sends a succession of attacks at his opponent, and he responds to their attacks just as quick. Because of this particular bit of power, most hand to hand fights with him do not last very long unless he is going up agaisnt somebody who equally knows what they are doing.
Limits-
His ability is not muscle memory. It does not allow him to observe and copy an action he has seen someone else perform. What he does is that he is able to coordinate his body perfectly to do something that he wants it to do, but if he has forgotten how to do something or if he never knew how to do it, then he cannot perform it. For example, he cannot simply wish himself to know how to use a computer or drive a car, but he can learn at an above average rate. He also does not automatically know fighting styles when using a new weapon, and cannot simply pick up a weapon and know how to use it. Like all other people, he has to be taught, or learn overtime. He can still perform neat tricks and scenarios with them however.
History-
Anasazi was born in Liberia, before migrating to Sokoto, Nigeria as a child, then as a preteen, moving to New York City. Not too long after arriving in New York he fell in with the wrong sort of people, and ended up as a drug dealer for many years. He went through his entire high school years as a dealer, though he spent a lot of his time performing his criminal duties. He had shot and killed a man by the time he was thirteen years old, and his body count only continued rising since then.
He got into boxing and kick boxing when he was sixteen, and has continued on training ever since. Once he graduated from high school, he became a full time career criminal, and eventually branched out on his own and became a hitman. He worked for any of the gangs or organizations that would hire him within the city, and made a name for himself as one of the best. Not his real name though, and he never meets his clients in person, he simply performs the job and moves on.
He maintains a facade as a garage worker and makes no effort to find any friends. He prefers to keep on his own and meets enough people during work as it is. His victims, whom he meets in one way or another. Mostly he is going through the motions now, trying to kill enough people to earn enough money that he can retire, or at least that was the case before his abilities kicked in.
He does not quite know what it is that is happening to him, only that he is becoming incredibly gifted. He has started performing a lot better at everything he sets his mind to. When free running, he never makes a mistake, and beside that, he is able to outdo most of the competition without problem.
