Giovanni Potage

“	I think I've had just about enough of you, guy! You made my minion cry! NOBODY makes my minions cry except ME!	„
	~ Giovanni to Sylvester

Background

Giovanni Potage is a former Banzai Captain in the criminal organization known as the Banzai Blasters, who broke into the Sweet Jazz City Museum with no real goal besides "stealing artifacts".

His epithet, "Soup", creates...well, soup. He's equipped with a bat with a knife taped to it and backed up by a small crew of fellow Banzai Blasters to make up for this. But now he has decided to quit the organization and forge his own path towards becoming the greatest villain.

Powers and Abilities

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Weapon Mastery (Quite skilled with using his Soulslugger Doombat, has a Banzai Blaster pea shooter), Consumption (Type 1. Can eat screws and drink from pinecones to regain stamina and health), Accelerated Development (Continuous use of one's epithet will cause it to grow stronger), Creation & Organic Manipulation (Giovanni's epithet allows him to create and control soup), Psuedo-Teleportation (Giovanni builds up steam around him, using this for a sudden burst of speed to the point where it looks like teleportation to observers.), Explosion Manipulation (Giovanni creates a scalding hot orb of soup that he can launch at an area. When it hits the floor, it explodes, hitting enemies in its vicinity.), Aura & Air Manipulation (All epithet users have an aura around them. Giovanni creates a whirlwind of soupy energy, capable of blasting dust particles away.), Heat Manipulation (Can increase the temperature of soup), Healing & Smoke Manipulation (Giovanni sweats a bottle of healthy soup that he can drink to regain 15 HP. Giovanni covers the area with a blanket of thick, delicious-smelling fog, useful for making a getaway. It also restores 1 HP for anyone standing in it.), Limited Probability Manipulation & Damage Boost (As 13 is Giovanni's lucky number, every 13th attack he performs deals extra damage. This can be charged up ahead of time by gently knocking objects.), Regeneration (High-Low. Recovers energy after winning a battle, restoring his broken bones. Possibly Mid-Godly. Molly Blyndeff has an ability named "Hushabye" which dumbs down the opponent to nothing. She later got attacked by bears and when asked if she could erase the bears, she states that they would just come back after the fight. Since everyone instantly regenerates right after a fight in verse, the characters themselves should be able to come back from existence erasure), Immortality (Type 6. Mera's bones breaking were viewed as -1 damage this doesn't only apply to Mera as she broke Sylvie's ribs. It is stated by word of god that everyone in Epithet Erased functions under JRPG mechanics so even attacks that are greatly above them and should kill them can't, for example being shot in the head will not kill them, they are even described as "extremely hard to kill"), Restoration (After battles characters injuries, statuses, etcetera are normally undone, including acts such as de-aging a character, being reverted), High Resistance to Pain (Characters in Epithet Erased are extremely hard to kill and can survive shots to the head along with taking attacks that break their bones without showing much harm from it), Age Manipulation (After a battle is over, affects such as Zora Salazar's ability to de-age a character, were reverted)

Power Absorption & Power Nullification (The Arsene Amulet can steal ones epithet), Power Bestowal (Can give one an epithet)
