Name: Kurou Daijuji Age: 23 Personality: A hot-blooded young man with a reckless streak and a passion for justice, he sometimes comes across as lazy or mean-spirited, but his heart is always in the right place. Despite his tendency to act on impulse, he can be surprisingly cunning at times, though he relies on luck more often than he should. His generosity and kind spirit greater than one would expect, though he disguises them through constant complaints. Bio: A dropout from the Miskatonic University in Arkham City, Kurou started his own business as a private investigator, to very little success, until eventually being commissioned by the Hadou Corporation to find a grimoire.Though an unlikely series of events, he came to meet Al Azif, better known as the Necronomicon, and became the pilot of the Hadou Corporation's artifical Deus Machina, Demonbane. Through training with Al Azif, he recovered her missing pages and restored Demonbane to its complete form, before taking on and defeating the Black Lodge, led by the evil Master Therion.

Other: Feminine wiles normally do not work on him, as he has a very specific "type." --- Name: Al Azif (aka, Necronomicon) Age: Over 1200 Personality: Normally haughty and arrogant, Al has a softer side that very few are allowed to see. She holds justice in very high regard, and has little tolerance for those that either violate that or do not show her proper respect. She cares about Kurou quite deeply, and those that would do him harm do not fare well. Her moods are flighty and change quickly, which can be very troublesome for those in her company. Bio: Written many centuries ago by the "Mad Arab" Alhazred, Al Azif is an encyclopedia of supernatural and cosmic phenomenon, and is a font of magical power unto herself. Alongside many masters who all inevitably fell, she battled the forces of evil for time immeasurable, until coming into the service of Kurou. Her previous Deus Machina, Aeon, destroyed, she teamed up with him to pilot Demonbane and fight the Black Lodge, and formed a bond with him unlike that of any of her former masters.
