Name: Agimar
Age: Ancient
Appearance: Agimar generally prefers the “disembodied voice approach”, but if he does need to show himself with a bit of spectacle for one reason or another, he likes taking the appearance of a towering, metallic humanoid with the head and tail of a snake, scythe-like claws, and the wings of a bat. His eyes appear to be a dull red, and they somehow give the impression of a void sucking in light. On the other hand, if he simply needs a way to interact with the mortal world, without any real need to put on a show, he can and will take the appearance of a normal human.
Nature: Demon
Personality: Agimar, at first glance, doesn’t seem like the demonic type. He’s not quite sadistic, and he doesn’t even like Hades all that much. (It’s much too hot.) He is ruthless, of course, but that’s really just based in logic. You really can’t starve that hydra you worked so hard to make, and those mortals have such short lives anyway…. After you get to know him, however, it’s pretty obvious that he has a power complex. While Agimar isn’t exactly evil, he’s not really what you would call moral, either. He is driven primarily by a lust for power, and secondly by logic. He thinks of mortals and other spirits as pieces on a board, and while he would prefer to leave the board intact, he has no qualms about sacrificing a few pawns to achieve his own ends.
Skills and Abilities: Agimar fancies himself to be a creator. While he can’t make something living, he will channel the prayers and emotions of his worshipers to forge fearsome monsters in the fires of Hades. While these creations are powerful and destructive, there always seems to be something missing inside their metallic bodies, and he obsessively seeks a way to make them truly live.
Backstory: Agimar sided against the golden orb in the war, though he generally just hid on the sidelines and let everyone else do the work. He’s never really been in the spotlight, but he has patiently waited for opportunities to make his move.
Connections:
Danives: Agimar and Danives don't get along amazingly well. While nothing between them has been violent, Agimar considers Danives' followers to be a perpetual nuisance, due to their tendency to kill off his own contacts. Agimar is openly hostile, and it probably wouldn't take all that much of a disturbance for a fight between the two to break out.
Hiraga: Agimar sees the use of Hiraga's role, but he isn't exactly enthusiastic about her policing. While they aren't the best of friends by any means, he would probably side with her in the event of a common threat. His attitude towards her is generally a kind of grudging respect, and he takes care to stay on her good side.
Dust: Dust is, in most cases, largely beneath Agimar's notice. He has some sympathy for the upstart, but sees him as having no bearing on his plans one way or another. Agimar does take a slight interest in the Desolace, however, and would be interested in learning about what happened to it so long ago.
Voana: Agimar and Voana aren't exactly enemies, but nobody could say they mix. Agimar prefers to keep his distance, mostly due to her temper and preference for open combat. He knows that she would consider his scheming to be cowardly, and it isn't usually the best idea to get in a fight with a war god.
Sohena: Agimar is rather paranoid with regards to Sohena. While he knows that she doesn't usually interfere with the world at large, it still worries him to have the details of his plots known to anyone, no matter how isolated. Knowing that she could bring an end to his machinations, and maybe even his life, he takes great pains to avoid antagonizing her.
Yakushi: Agimar is intrigued by her knowledge of magic and medicine, and while he knows they aren't on very good terms, he still harbors a secret hope that she might have an answer to his obsession. He carefully manages his relations with her, hoping that she might one day tell him some secret of life.
Varavana:
Religion: Agimar’s following is relatively small, but it could easily be called a cult. He is worshipped as a kind of supreme source of power and authority, which pleases him to no end. He demands prayer, offerings, and sacrifices from his worshippers, all of which give him the power he needs to forge his creations. In return, he gives the most devoted of his followers control of monsters, armies, and the occasional artifact.
Nation: While Agimar doesn’t have a full nation of worshippers, his devotees are often found in high places due to his gifts. As a result, he can often manage to manipulate smaller nations from behind the scenes in order to achieve his ends.
