Helix Warrior

So this is a character I've come up with to base a game design around in my 3rd year animation for gaming program. In the future a mysterious affliction begins plaguing people after a meteorite crashes onto their planet. It contains a dual life form known as the 'Helix Virus', a symbiotic entity that has a stable existence until it contacts a third living organism.

Coming in contact with the virus is fatal within about an hour, during which the host experiences an enormous strength increase and fantastic psychic powers. Civilians afflicted by it have nearly no chance for survival without immediate amputation of the affected area, but the military has created containment units to allow for the creation of super soldiers by taking advantage of the Helix's side effects. Soldiers willingly accept the virus and are fitted with armors which keep the side effects mostly under control.

So that's this guy's story. He's in more of a robed attire because he takes more advantage of the magical than the physical aspects of Helix effects, and should be light on his feet instead of heavily defended. All of that will be up to the player in the end, this is just one variation.
