BEHAVIOR PROFILE[/style][STYLE= margin: 0px 10px 0px 10px; border: 2px solid #191919; padding: 2px; font-family: verdana; height: 125px; overflow: auto; font-size: 11px; color: #000000; text-align: justify; background-color: #ffffff; opacity: 0.8] Determined or stubborn, either could be used to describe his immovable stance on almost all topics, the most controversial are his views on justice, believing that Positive Law is essential to the survival of civilization. He despises the justice system and their lax punishments for serious crimes, he believes that criminals should be put down for good to save the innocent. This is largely due to the dark feelings he harbours due to death of his brother, and the blame he places squarely on the heroes and villains who instigated the violence that saw his brother killed. Thus he has no qualms in killing on either side, just as long as no innocent human is slain.
Caleb is a devout man, with family values and thus he will do anything within his power to protect his family and those whom he deems members of his flock, he is highly opinionated yet not to the extent that he will allow words to spawn violence. Hardly naïve, Caleb is quite intuitive and a great actor able to conceal his true motives from those who disagree with his means or beliefs. A generally calm man, Caleb can be brought to a rage when he sees a crime committed against the innocent, for him it is an eye for an eye.

With an absentee father, Caleb learned early on the value of honest work, family and faith, as his older siblings dropped out of school to support their mother and their baby brother. Being the only one of the boys to complete elementary school, Caleb often bore the brunt of insults and found his brothers continually goading him on to success, despite the intense pressure they placed on him they also gave him a wide berth as they learnt early on that Caleb displayed a natural aptitude for violent arts. It became evident as he grew that Caleb was destined for greatness, gifted with physical prowess that rivalled the greatest athletes, his mother was proud and his brothers jealous. During his final year of schooling, Caleb's eldest brother, Jerry, was slain in a conflict between the Batman and the Joker. This trauma sent the entire family into shock, during the aftermath of his brother's death Caleb sat his exams and did not perform well.
Not acquiring high enough marks to enter medicine, Caleb settled for teaching, completing his degree and becoming a teacher was simple enough, especially when all he did was study, work and train. The only form of social interaction the young man engaged in was at church, and then it was only polite conversation with the priest. His first placement was in Star City and this is where he met the woman who would later become his wife and bear his children. After the first was born Caleb made a decision, he would do what the heroes would not, he would clean the streets where they failed, he would make his children safe. Baphomet was born.
After months of success he had a run in with the Green Arrow and was forced to flee for the meeting turned hostile as their ideologies differed and both men walked away injured. Deciding that his life in Star City had come to a close, Caleb sought to return to Gotham, a place that could use his services. He offered a service the Bat didn't a service that would have saved Jerry. [/style]

KNOWN ABILITIES:
- Marksmanship: Caleb is a talented marksman, with all forms of firearms due to years of training.
- Boxing: Taught to him by his brothers and later augmented by proper trainers.
- Martial Arts: A variety of styles were picked up at least in part when Caleb trained at his local gym as there were a number of different teachers going around, he was a fast learner and often surpassed the alleged masters. He also sought tutelage from youtube, which was a surprisingly good teacher.
- Free Running: An essential component of vigilantism is that of being able to navigate the city rooftops with ease and it is a skill that Caleb has fostered from his very beginnings as he and his brothers used to run amok in the streets. Though he has persisted and is now quite apt at the dangerous passtime.
STRENGTH LEVEL: Peak human, due to years of training and both natural bone and muscle density.
WEAKNESSES:
- Humanity: As he is human, he is vulnerable to all forms of attack and is unable to do much about it, he can die, he can bleed. This weakness is pretty self explanatory.
- Family: Caleb's family are his greatest weakness, they mean the world to him, they are his motivation, if anyone were to take them from him he would be devastated and willing to do almost anything. Namely the unthinkable, suicide. His life means nothing if he can't protect his children.

“The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name' sake.”
Below him sprawled the bloated and rotting corpse of Gotham, a human cesspool if there ever were one, and the home of the Batman and his cadre of crime fighters. Snorting at the concept, he couldn't imagine a greater joke, the Batman's moral crusade to clean the streets without actually getting his hands truly dirty, that's why he was here. Baphomet was the solution to Gotham's problem, he was here to save lives not pander to a moral code or to assuage some form of guilt, he would do what the Batman couldn't, do what the family of Bats refused to do. There would be no mistakes, there would be no innocent blood spilt inadvertently by his hand, he would not keep trophies in Arkham or Blackgate, Baphomet would measure his triumphs in those he sent to hell. Nothing would stand in his way, not the police and definitely not the Batman. Descending upon the maggots and human cockroaches, Baphomet made a solemn vow to restore life to the dying city and make the streets safe for the decent people, he would bloody his hands to save the innocents of Gotham from the fear.
Sirens, screams, and silhouettes filled Gotham's night, Baphomet had no choice but to focus his efforts on one issue at a time namely the feminine shrieks that erupted from an alley nearby. Navigating across the cityscape was hardly a difficult task, though attempting to fathom how pedestrians that passed the alley could ignore the cries of frightened woman proved to challenging, he didn't have time to question their humanity, Baphomet simply leapt into action. Removing a grapple from his belt, he attached it to the lip of the building's brick facade before stepping off into the abyss, the wire screeched as it held his body weight and lowered him into the darkness below. Coming to an abrupt halt when his feet met the ground, Baphomet became aware of the exact nature of the incident he had interrupted, a large sinister looking man knelt over the petrified form of a petite blonde woman, from whom the man cut clothing.
Fists clenched and armed with fury, Baphomet brought one hand crashing into the side of the man's face and sent the scum flying off his victim, yet this was only the beginning off the judgement. Every emotion save contempt was concealed by his goat shaped mask, standing tall above the wastrel Baphomet brought his heel down heavy, breaking the man's ankle and instantly crippling him. Screaming in rage the broken man lunged towards him, brandishing the knife used to strip the defenceless woman of her clothes the man did purpose to strip Baphomet of his flesh. Lashing out, he caught the man's wrist and snapped it clockwise, snaking the knife from the criminal. Desperate begging filled the alley, the same frantic pleas had fallen on the scum's deaf ears, Baphomet decided to pay him the same curtesy. Pulling the man to his feet with one hand, with the other Baphomet plunged the hungry blade into the man's chest, taking his right lung with the first strike and the second with his next. Discarding the disgusting wretch, Baphomet had passed his first act, it would serve as a warning to the filth.
“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: For thou art with me
Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;
Thou annointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.”
Beneath his feet, blood pooled, the scum writhed in agony, sputtered as it struggled to breath with collapsed lungs. Baphomet wiped the combat knife he had wrested from his victim's hands clean, it was a brilliant piece of metal that was used for nefarious purposes, it was free now and had slain the devil who had misused it so horribly. Regarding the semi-naked woman who still lay where the dying scoundrel had thrown her, Baphomet solemnly presented her with the blade, “It will protect you,” With a shaky hand the woman snatched the knife from him, “Don't fear him, don't fear Gotham, for the reckoning has come.” In a fleeting moment Baphomet had vanished into the shadows, clambering up a nearby fire escape and leapt onto the adjacent roof, eager to see whether he had baited a Bat.
“Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever”.
