Equipment: Boris has a warlock staff, which helps him focus his magical powers, and a tome of madness which is a book which allows him to summon dangerous spirits.

Power/Special Skill: His powers all stem from black magic that he received when he made a pact with a demon.

Hex: This black magic spell allows Boris to attack his enemies minds with a wave of magical energy that can cause a good amount mental damage and drive his victims to madness.

Eldritch Blast: Boris fires off a powerful blast of force that cause a large of amount of concussive damage. The size and power of the blast is determined by how much power he puts into the attack.

Familiar: This ability allows him to summon his familiar which is a crow named Morbid. Familiars are spirits that take a physical form in the shape of an animal, when they are in a physical form they can be killed and sent back to the spiritual plane and can't called back for several hours. His familiar can used to scout out an area and he can perceive everything that it can see, hear or touch. Morbid can also fire off magic blasts of his own, but they are not very strong.

Hellfire: Boris can create crimson red flames that take the shape of dangerous animals and burn much hotter than normal fire. This ability using up a large amount of magical power and can drain him of power much quicker than his other abilities.

Demonic Summons: By calling on the dark forces, Boris can summon demonic entities that can attack his enemies. Like with his Hellfire ability this power can lower his magic reserves much quicker than his powerful abilities.

Armor of Baal: This spell covers Boris in black transparent tentacles that can protect him from harm, but if he takes too many hits then the spell will begin to deteriorate.

Backstory: for thousands of years, Boris' family has harbored a dark and demonic bloodline that first came to be when an ancestor sold his soul for great magical power. As a price for attaining such a curse was placed on the Hex family and those that showed magical promise would forever be doomed to fall into the black arts of the Warlocks. Boris was one of those few in his family, but he like all of the others made a pact with a demon to save a loved one from death. When he was fourteen Boris' father was diagnosed with cancer and only had months to live.

That was when the demon Baal who had been worshiped as a god by the ancient Canaanites came to him with an offer to save his dad in exchange for making a pact with it. Boris' asked what the demon would do with him once the pact was made, and Baal merely answered that the power that he would give him would be his to control, but if he had an order for him then Boris would have to follow it. Baal reached out with his grotesque hands and placed it upon Boris' chest and he felt his skin burn as the demon marked him.

When the process of the pact was complete Baal vanished, but not before leaving one last message, "remember once a pact is made it can never be broken, you are damned for all eternity." The next day Boris saw that his father had miraculously been cured of his cancer and decided to go celebrate. But things would take a dark turn when their car was hit by an intoxicated driver and his father was killed. While he was pulled from the wreckage, Boris swore he had seen Baal among the crowds of onlookers and he heard the deep and creepy laughter of the demon. 

Boris realized that he had been tricked by Baal and given up his soul for nothing. With his father dead, Boris wandered the globe learning to control his powers and trying to find a way to rid himself of the demonic power within him. He also has been trying to use his powers to right wrongs done to others with his dark powers.

Personality: dark, cold and determined.
