Combat Stats

Dominant Hand: Right

Reach: As far as his rifle can shoot.

Equipment:

-Upper Body:

• Reaper's Armour - What used to be ballistic ceramic plating underneath a standard issue ballistic vest. The dark magics within Cho have repaired his former mortal armour and have turned it into regenerative plating that's a part of him.

-Lower Body:

• Boots of Travel - These firm, black leather combat boots are now enchanted with travel: they will carry Cho any distance he requires, help him leap tall distances and also strengthen if he needs to kick something.

Weapons

• Reaper's Scythe/Tac - What once was a CheyTac Intervention M-200 variant sniper rifle is now a magic-powered and enhanced death machine. Formerly bolt action, the rifle is now semi automatic, and has an effective supersonic range of 2,200 yards or 2 kilometers. The rifle itself is born of the darkness and vengeful hate within Cho, and somewhere along the line the rifle itself was given a semblance of life. It is now a sentient being that lives off of the darkness within him. He equips it by attaching it to his right shoulder and forearm, gripping the pistol grip as he would normally. The living weapon latches onto him and draws upon his energy. The rifle fires Shredders; powerful parasites that act like regular bullets when fired, up until they impact a surface, at which point it opens its jaws and burrows, using its fired momentum to travel deep within and even through armour plating, walls and surfaces. The parasites then trigger an inner mechanism, transforming their streamlined bodies into sharp, thorny tumours that stay within their target, before expiring in a flash of heat and force akin to a small firecracker explosion.
• Liquid Shadow/Kris - What was a KRISS Vector submachine gun is now a blazing fast shadow shooter. Working like a very high powered paint gun, the Shadow fires bolts of liquid darkness that can mark and paint any surface, alongside regular bullets. It ties into his ability to submerge and travel through darkness and shadows, as he can travel in and through wherever he's shot his weapon at.
• Death's Mark/Hek - This used to be a Heckler & Koch P30L pistol. Now it's a marker. The pistol fires slugs of solid ink that can penetrate and splatter a target. This ink magically forms itself into a Mark of Death; a jagged cross bordered by a ring of thorns, and then hardens and crystallises, immobilising the affected area. Once a target has been marked, Cho can then fire at the mark to shatter it, causing immense damage or even outright ending his target in one blow.
• Culling Blade/Barr - His old Ka-bar knife, now a tool of morbid death. It still looks and functions as a knife, except its blade is now so sharp it can cut metal. Wounds caused by the blade will also never stop bleeding and cannot heal unless he allows it.

Abilities

• Enhanced Speed
• Enhanced Agility
• Enhanced Reflexes
• Enhanced Accuracy

Magic

• Shadow Form - Cho is able to turn his entire body into darkness, becoming intangible as well as immune to physical damage. He is able to, in this form, merge with nearby cast shadows by immersing himself in them. In this way he is able to traverse large areas at night by way of "swimming" in the darkness.
• Crow Image - Cho is also able to take the form of a large, black crow. In this form he can fly anywhere he pleases, but nothing else. Transforming between human and crow takes a matter of seconds.
• Darkness Tendrils - Made of shadow, Cho is able to form several long tendrils made of darkness. These can emerge from anywhere in his body, but most commonly form from the scar on the left side of his torso, next to his heart. Cho is able to use these tendrils to manipulate objects, help him traverse terrain or even attack.
• Undying - Cho is an unstoppable spirit of vengeance, and as such he will not be dissuaded by something as trivial as death. Upon sustaining damage, his body will regenerate itself. A slow process, but given enough time he will be back on his feet and ready for another fight.

Bio

Voice: Normal Asian tone, but multiplied and echoey, as if he is the voice of a legion.

Personality: Cho is rather quiet for a man of his caliber, and for good reason: he is focused and resolute, powered mainly by the tragedy that happened to his dad and grandma. If you talk to him, he'll chat with you at length on whatever subject you wish to discuss, but leave him alone and he'll lapse into a grim, tense silence, punctuated only by the sounds of his equipment being checked, double checked and triple checked for each and every mission.

Backstory: Cho hails from Seoul, and specifically the 707th Special Mission Battalion, which is the special counter-terror wing of the South Korean military. When he was old enough, he enlisted first in the regular military then proved himself worthy to sign up with the 707th. There, the training pushed him far beyond his physical and mental boundaries, and today he's a crack shot and an able soldier, trained and proficient in urban warfare, counter-terror operations and, above all, marksmanship.

When he was young, he was always interested in the military, and after all the above experiences, you could say he is living the dream, his dream anyway. After all, his family was partly military too, at least on his father's side. His mother was a simple and humble cook in a small street corner eatery near home that served home grown and home cooked foods for the locals, neighbours, visitors and what have you. However, he lost his whole family when the cruise ship they were on capsized due to a freak paranormal waterspout caused by a kaiju. Since then he has carried a deep-seated grudge against anything paranormal or supernatural, his hatred fueling his quest for vengeance. He joined the organisation ParaCom to help fulfil this quest.

Within ParaCom he excelled at hunting and destroying anything paranormal, and he made fast friends with the squad he was assigned to. Within a few years his squad had become one of the best at their job, and for good reason.

On a mission to a Canadian forest, he and his squad were ambushed by a Viking warrior. The lone warrior turned out to be more than a match for the whole squad, however, and they were subsequently slaughtered to the last man. Cho was the very last casualty, the Viking having saved him for last.

Just before he died, the Viking packed his wounds with a magical ash, claiming that the sniper was a worthy warrior but not meant to die just yet. This ash imbued his body with a strong power, added together with his own innate magic, made the corpse that used to be living a very powerful artifact. Thus was how he was chosen by the Darkness to be a Reaper.

He was raised from the dead by the interdimensional dark, his blood replaced by darkness, his heart powered by his vengeance and hate. His weapons were given a rework to better suit his new form by demons inhabiting them. When he awoke, he recalled little of his past grievances, but gained new ones in his confusion to understand his new form.

Now Cho wanders the multiverse, a shadowy mercenary that uses his powers to quell whatever evils lays in any land. His ability to traverse the worlds through the very shadows themselves is a unique talent, one that has earned him much respect.

Other Notes

Daemons

When Cho was killed and subsequently revived, his soul was briefly dipped into Hell. It was there that he briefly received judgement, and though he was brought back to life by the Aesir, the ruler of the Underworld couldn't resist leaving him with some gifts to coincide with his becoming a Reaper. These gifts came in the form of four demons that were permanently bonded to his spirit and came to live within Cho's four pieces of equipment: his sniper rifle, submachine gun, pistol and knife. These daemons, obviously sentient beings, were the ones that awoke Cho from his death-induced slumber after the climactic fight between him and Kolskegg. With some getting used to, the Reaper became accustomed to his weapons talking to him and providing him with information or casual banter to offset boring travels.

A friendly and helpful daemon, Tac resides within Cho's sniper rifle. He can be considered the "leader" out of the four daemons bonded to Cho, though not the oldest, and is often the most relevant of the lot.

Tac is a death daemon by nature, thus his skillset is focused around long-range, one-shot combat, which fits his position within the Intervention sniper rifle. The Shredder parasites that the rifle produces as ammunition are organisms that he produces within the magazine.

Boisterous, noisy and hyperactive, Kris resides in Cho's submachine gun, as befits the former's personality. She is the youngest of the four, and is often immature and naive about things in the outside world.

Kris is a shadow daemon. Her skillset revolves around assisting Cho's latent shadow-walking powers by spreading her darkness wherever she can.

A stoic, cool and calculated daemon, Hek resides in Cho's pistol, a little strangely, since Hek is the oldest, largest and most powerful of the four daemons that are with Cho. He often turns to Hek for help in tactical situations, or regarding certain beings or deities that he doesn't recognise.

Hek is an elite daemon warrior and tactician, and though he has no special powers of his own, his battle smarts and talents more than make for it. His influence on the handgun that is Death's Mark is to expose and immobilise a target's weaknesses for Cho to strike at.

A laid back, easy going daemon, Barr resides in Cho's knife. He is the other more helpful daemon in Cho's arsenal, and is often referred to by the others as Tac's right-hand man- er, daemon.

Barr is a blood daemon, one with an affinity to that life-sustaining fluid, and it shows in his ability to manipulate his enemy's blood when he cuts them.

Combat Stats

Dominant Hand: Left

Equipment:

-Upper Body:

• Hellfire Armour - once thought to be a standard US-issue ballistic vest with plating, the body armour has since morphed into a fiery, ashen armoured regenerative vest, a mere visage of what it once was. It protects against most medium calibre bullets, but has a harder time stopping higher powered projectiles.

-Lower Body:

• Boots of Flame - these special combat boots are part of Luis' Flame Boost power; their soles easily combust and break away to allow his flame jets to burst forth. They also regenerate nearly instantly, but do little else.

Weapons

• Cuarenta (Forty)- What was once an M249 SAW is now a fire-spitting beast of death. Drawing upon daemonic powers, the machine gun's magazine no longer requires bullets, instead spitting a constant stream of hellfire bolts at Luis' enemies.
• Ira (Anger) - This Benelli M1014 shotgun is no longer a shotgun. It instead is an agony launcher, firing explosive shot or depositing pellets of distilled pain and fury into enemies, turning them into mindless killing machines that cannot tell friend from foe.
• Desierto (Desert) - What used to be an IMI Desert Eagle is now a heat-seeking bolt thrower. The bolts from this unholy pistol release ungodly amounts of heat when fired, drying up plant life, dirt or soil, superheating liquids, metals and solid structures and weakening them.
• Spada (Sword)- Luis' machete has been given a brain and a pair of eyes and a mouth, and now this foul blade reaps death in the battlefield, its bloodlust and power growing with each kill.

Abilities

• Super enhanced strength, endurance and stamina to nearly superhero levels.
• Enhanced speed and reflexes.

Magic

• Fire Form - By breaking free of his ashen flesh shell, Sanchez is able to turn his whole body and kit into an unstoppable raging fire, capable of swarming and engulfing small to medium-sized structures and turning everything into ash. Standing still and within his ashen shell, Fire Form renders him impervious to most basic projectile, penetrating or wounding attacks. When not in this form, he is mostly human. Sustaining Fire Form requires stamina, and though Sanchez is high on that, it's not infinite.
• Ashen Flesh - What encloses his heart of hellfire, Ashen Flesh is a passive magic that overtook Luis' entire body upon his death and resurrection. It converts his skin, muscle and bone into a hard, dense ash that protects his innards. This ash isn't impervious to his own internal fires; the light and bursts of flame that emanate from the tiny cracks within the ash are what enhances his aesthetic. The ash is strong enough to withstand basic non-powered attacks from any type of melee weapon, though not tough enough to withstand either powered attacks or bullets. Other projectile attacks that are magical, not gunpowder-powered, are dissipated or absorbed, unless the power levels are too high. It all depends.
• Flame Boost - By breaking holes in the soles of his feet, Luis is able to blow out jet streams of fire out his legs and effectively boost around like Iron Man. Flame Boost renders Luis capable of short-distance, sustainable flight, or long-distance ground travel.
• Unkillable - Being made of unquenchable fire means that Luis effectively cannot die, though like Cho before him, being injured greviously or to the point of death means that he has to spend a long period of time slowly regenerating his body and rekindling his flames.

Bio

Voice: Hard, crackly, as if he was talking through a fire.

Personality: Sanchez is very up-front, gung-ho and boisterous. Most that are asked to describe him say that he laughs in the face of danger, and most times it shows.

Backstory: Sanchez was a full blooded Spanish-American, born and raised in San Jose on the west coast. Not long after he hit the right age, he immediately requested to sign on with the army. After his basics, he was placed within an infantry battalion, one that was posted to fight the War on Terror. This was in 2003.

In 2006, his platoon came under fire from an enemy machine gun emplacement inside a building. Trapped across a road from the rest of his section, Sanchez took it upon himself to free the rest of his comrades from the suppression of hot lead. With only his LMG and shotgun, he charged at the building in question, daring and taunting the insurgents within to kill him. They put up a fight, but Sanchez beat them back, forcing the gunner away from his position by firing back. With his bravery and confidence under fire, it was then that Delta Force took notice.

Two years later, in 2008, Sanchez was part of a Delta Force squad that single-handedly took down a terror cell hiding in a remote desert base on the outskirts of Cairo. On their way home though, they were ambushed by insurgent raiders and subsequently trapped in an abandoned town. It was there that he and his squad fought not only insurgents, but something else entirely. Something not quite human.

The dark skinned, robotic humanoid that greeted their squad wiped out the insurgents in a fit of rage, then turned on the four operators with a fire unmatched by anything they'd ever seen before. The team was killed, one by one, until Sanchez was the only one alive. The man was burned to a cinder by his opponent's magical fire, left as a husk on the battlefield next to the corpses of his friends.

Thus the Darkness chose him to bear an eternal fire and turned him into the Reaper of War.

Just as in life, when a courageous fire burned within his heart that could not be quenched, so too in death he was given a fire, a flame that consumed his entire inner being and set him ablaze in a furious inferno.

When he awoke, he found his skin like hard ash, his flesh like cinders and his inner body a raging fire. His weapons were possessed by daemons, and yet they were strangely friendly with them.

And, in front of him, stood another man. A man made of shadow.

A friend.

A Reaper.

Others

Daemons

Much like Cho before him, Luis was bonded to four daemons after his experience with death. However, in accordance to the way he died, the daemons he was bonded with are vastly different to the ones Cho travels with.


Cuarenta, or Ren for short, is a fire daemon. She resides in Luis' machine gun and, like Tac, is considered the de factor 'leader' amongst the four daemons with Luis. Her gentle and often understanding nature belies the cruelty and ruthlessness of her daemonic fire.

As Renny is a fire daemon, her powers and skillset are mainly devoted to fire; either causing it, spreading it, or imbuing it into his weapons and body.


Ira is a rage daemon, and he resides in Luis' shotgun. The youngest of the four, he doesn't let his inexperience stop him from unleashing fiery anger and unholy rage upon Luis' enemies.

Ira's skills and powerset passively augment Luis' combat and endurance abilities, bestowing upon him godly levels of endurance, healing and stamina, while enhancing his natural strength and speed.


Desierto, or Des for short, is a heat daemon, and the main difference between her and Ren is that while Ren produces and manipulates fire, Des can make and manipulate heat. She resides within Luis' pistol, and she is commonly used as a precursor for stronger attacks from his other weapons. Though her usefulness is limited, it doesn't stop her from trying to be the best she can be.

With aggressive heat as the basis for her skill and powersets, Des is most often used as a combat starter, prepping the battlefield and targets so that his other weapons have the most effect when they come into play.


Spada is the oldest daemon of the lot, and is an elite daemon fighter and warrior. While he doesn't have any special abilities, he makes up for it by being Luis' main source of combat smarts in the field, guiding the one-man wrecking crew along when he's busy being an unstoppable killing machine. He resides within his machete, and is most at ease in the heat of battle.

Spada's entire skill and moveset rely upon Luis' instincts and close-quarters combat abilities. By constantly observing and analysing a fight or combat, he is able to give consistent, good advice, as well as being able to make any bladed attacks home in slightly on their target.

Combat Stats

Dominant Hand: Left

Equipment:

-Upper Body:

• Потеря Небес (Poterya Nebes) - Heaven's Loss. The upper half of a set of daemon possessed medical armour, Poterya Nebes is Nataliya's main source of protection. The pain daemon within the armour absorbs most damage sustained and converts it into healing and shielding. The absorbed damage can also be kept as is and then distilled into syringes that are created by the armour for use in the syringe gun on the left bracer. These pain syringes contain a single dose of pure pain, and when injected into a subject, cause five seconds of intolerable agony.
  
  The right bracer contains a vital signs scanner and an extendable bonesaw.
  
  The armour also has a set of foldable wings in its back. These wings are in the shape of an angel's wings, and are six feet long from wingtip to wingtip, meaning that each wing is three feet long. The wings are jet-powered, and are capable of sustained short-distance flight or hovering for a long duration.

-Lower Body:

• Потеря Небес (Poterya Nebes) - Heaven's Loss. The lower half of a set of daemon possessed medical armour, Poterya Nebes is Nataliya's main source of protection. See above for the armour's effects. The lower half of the armour does not contain many special effects. The heels of her boots contain sharp stilettos that she can activate with a click of her heels, and nothing else.

Weapons

• Ангелос (Angelos) - A SIG Sauer P226 9mm pistol with an angel in it, Angelos is one of Nataliya's primary weapons, alongside Lyutsifer. The bolts of light that he fires blind and disintegrate most fleshy, disposable targets.
• Люцифер (Lyutsifer) - A H&K USP Match .45 pistol with the Prince of Lies himself within it, Lyutsifer is the other half of Nataliya's primary weapon duo. The bolts of darkness he fires distort and destroy most fleshy, disposable targets.
• Поцелуй Ада (Potseluy Ada) - Meaning "Hell's Kiss", this SVD sniper rifle contains a fallen angel, whose powers of life and death have turned the once innocuous sniper rifle into a man-portable medigun, dispensing bursts of healing and energy into allies and destroying her enemies with extreme prejudice.

Abilities

• Enhanced Reflexes, Speed and Endurance
• Gun Warrior - By virtue of having almost no melee whatsoever, Nataliya instead prides herself on integrating her pistols into her melee routine, utilising a style similar to Wing Chun or Bojutsu in addition to bullets, often wielding her pistols as clubs in extreme close combat.

Magic

• Liquid Flesh - Being made entirely of disease and pathogens bestows this benefit upon Nataliya, as her body can be completely liquid and fluid to the touch. Basic, unpowered melee attacks and projectile attacks do not harm her in any way. The only way to truly harm her is to use magic or magic-empowered melee or projectile attacks to break past this magical barrier.
• Plague Carrier - And of course, since she's made of disease, it means she is also very dangerous up close. A single touch from a finger infects a target with so many deadly toxins and pathogens that death is often confirmed, if not instantaneous.
• Poison Queen - Nataliya, using her poison magics, can create pools or fields of poison and death around her. These fields are subject to her will, and can stay grounded, or float in the air as a fine mist.
• Unkillable - Just like the other Reapers, Nataliya cannot be killed. Instead, upon sustaining enough damage to be fatal, she is disabled, akin to being actually killed. She regrows herself through microorganisms, albeit slowly enough to not be considered an active combat ability.

Bio

Voice: Ghostly, husky, light Russian accent. Eloquent in diction.

Personality: Cool, collected and calm, as a medic should be. She displays an air of professionalism, sense of duty and, at the same time, compassion and pride in her work. She is a little more aloof than her other companions, but isn't a total ice queen.

Backstory: Nataliya was born in a turbulent Earth, one where the Cold War was less cold and more hot. Technology advanced faster here too, though not to the extent of her teammate, Itsuki.

Upon reaching her teens Nataliya was immediately drafted into the Russian Resistance Force, a militia force aimed to combat the advances of a Fascist Germany into Russia. In this Earth, Germany never stopped being Fascist even after the second World War, and that only opened up more eras of aggression in the new age. She quickly grew accustomed to the horrors of war, but felt that she'd do better on the sidelines instead of on the front.

Thus she took her chances to become a combat medic. She trained herself to treat battlefield casualties, often being the first one to drag her wounded companions out of the battlefield and towards a surgical station. Through the mud, sweat and blood, Nataliya persevered and eventually a commander recognised her work and gave her the promotion to an actual medical post as a battlefield hospital nurse. Obviously this still meant she was stationed near the front line, but now her main focus was saving the lives of those sent to her, which she took to with gusto.

The decades wore by and the war on the European front never seemed to end, just one side or the other making a half-assed effort to push into the territory of the other, failing and retreating back into a stalemate that had been there ever since the end of WWII. In that time, Nataliya honed her skills; when not actively treating casualties, she was now on the front causing them, having taken up marksmanship as a secondary course of training to supplement her battlefield medicine skills, mostly to back her up in case her emplacement fell and they had to retreat. She was also one of the first few waves of medical personnel to receive a new, futuristic piece of equipment: the Medical Armour suit, which came integrated with various devices to scan for life signs, administer drugs, apply dressings and sew up open wounds with ease, while granting the medics who wore them the ease of mind to run around in a battlefield without sustaining life-threatening injury from how bulletproof the armour was.

However, Nataliya was only human, and through the decades she spent treating casualties, she herself received wounds in battle that were treated by others. And though the medicines and drugs of the time were sufficiently advanced, nothing could stop the advances of disease and malnutrition on the worn Russian front.

One day, while rescuing a squad trapped on a front in Stalingrad, Nataliya was shot by a sniper. Her armour absorbed most of the force of the hit, but the bullet still managed to penetrate her flesh, embedding itself in her liver.

Reeling and wounded, she could only watch as the enemy stormed by her, dismantling the squad she was sent to save and crushing the Russian advance.

No one ever came to save her, and eventually, days after her injury, she succumbed to the infections that followed and died a miserable, painful death.

That was, of course, until the Darkness found her. Her death was one of ill luck and misfortune, helped along by disease and infection, and so the Darkness decided to resurrect her into unlife, powering her body with the very microorganisms that destroyed her.

And so Nataliya rose from the dead, born again into unlife as a being of pestilence and disease, her weapons imbued with both light and darkness, the last of the mythical Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Her resurrection was met by the three individuals she would later consider as her team and family.

The Reapers.

Others

Daemons

A special type, Angelos is not a daemon at all. Instead, he is a fallen angel, and, like Akuma, Tac and Renny, is considered the leader of the four beings in Nataliya's possession. Upright, noble and courageous, Angelos stands in stark contrast to the daemon that inhabits Nataliya's other pistol.

Angelos brings the powers of light and strength to the battlefield. He emits a constant aura of strength and endurance that affects those around him in a ten foot circle area of effect.

As a weapon, he shoots bolts of light that have a slight homing capability; if not aimed directly at a foe, his bolts will curve slightly and readjust their trajectories to impact his target. Of course, this doesn't mean his bullets behave like guided missiles, the homing capability is light, and only work if fired either directly or slightly indirectly at a target. This ability does not work if fired in the complete opposite direction of her target, or at extreme angles.


A daemon of lies and deception, Lyutsifer, or Lucifer, is the Prince of Lies. How he became attached to Nataliya is unknown, perhaps he simply chose to, or maybe his eternal punishment by God was to be weaponised forever in an object, bound forever to his user. Whatever the case, Lucifer now works for Nataliya, and though he is mildly amused at how two fallen angels have also come to work for her, it doesn't stop him from being all that he is: a lie.

Lucifer brings darkness deception onto the battlefield as his main powerset. As a weapon, he shoots bolts of darkness that have a slight homing capability with the exact same limitations of Angelos, stated above.

By will, he is able to create visual clones of Nataliya or any of her teammates, be it Cho or Luis or Itsuki. These clones have their own will and act on their own, even sounding and behaving like them. However, they only exist to draw attention, and if damaged or injured, they immediately vanish. He is able to create up to ten of these clones, not including the original.

Also, he is able to directly affect the visuals of any fired projectile by simply making them vanish, or appear to have been fired from another direction, complete with the requisite sounds and sights. This power of misdirection serves to confuse and distract Nataliya's opponents, and is part of his skillset as a whole.


Meaning 'loss', Nebes is a pain daemon, more specifically a succubus, that resides within Nataliya's armour. Not being directly within a weapon doesn't bother her, for her usefulness is still high. Nebes takes great pleasure and joy in absorbing pain and suffering, using the energy to fuel the armour as well as provide a variety of medicines or poisons for Nataliya to use.

Nebes, being a pain daemon, has pain as her main skillset. Half of it is in the area of absorbing and redirecting it, the other half being in the area of giving it back.

When Nebes absorbs a hit, she converts a portion of the damage and pain into energy that she stores within the armour. At any time, Nataliya can will Nebes to convert this energy into a variety of functions within her armour; fuel for her jet wings, or to be converted into medicine or poison for her syringe gun in her bracer.

And, at any given moment, Nataliya can will Nebes to redirect the pain energy into any of her weapons, making her next attack with that weapon extra powerful and extra painful. If a hit with a powered weapon connects, it will deliver a shock of pure agony that lasts for three seconds. Effects include body spasms, uncontrolled bleeding from orifices, extremely increased heart rate and contracture of the body.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Nataliya is invincible. Any attack that cannot be blocked by her armour is given as a standard attack, and if she isn't wearing her armour then the usual happens. Nebes can only absorb part of the shock and damage of a hit, not all of it, and any huge, powerful attack can overload Nebes' capacity or penetrate through the armour, nullifying her abilities.


Meaning 'kiss', Ada is a fallen angel, just like Angelos. She resides within Nataliya's SVD sniper rifle and is the one who delivers life and death unto...whoever she shoots.

Ada's powerset involves life and death in varying degrees. It all depends on who she is shooting.

When Ada is shot at an ally, her projectiles are life-giving cocktails of microorganisms that promote healing and regeneration of lost flesh, while also sending adrenaline and painkillers through her target's system. A kiss of life.

When Ada is shot at an enemy, her projectiles are instead bolts of pure poison that penetrate and spread disease and death. The diseases imparted by Ada can also spread to surrounding targets by way of merely physically touching the infected. A kiss of death.

• Personal Teleporter - A sophisticated piece of hardware implanted within her arm and wired to her whole body, the device allows her to transmit herself as an energy wave to wherever she chooses. She uses this to follow her fellow Reapers since she doesn't have a travel power of her own.

-Lower Body:

• Jet Boots - A pair of boots that have miniature jet engines in them. With a tap of a button on her belt, she can activate them and use them to fly or hover in the air. They run on batteries that run out after roughly five minutes of continuous use, and recharge by way of solar power.

Weapons

• 悪魔のささやき (Akumanosasayaki)/Devil's Whisper - This monomolecular obsidian-edged katana is possessed by a death daemon. Much like Cho's sniper rifle Tac, the sword has been transformed from a technological marvel to a grim killing machine. It saps the life from her enemies and feeds on the souls of slain foes, gaining power as it feeds.
• 寄生虫 (Kiseichū)/Parasite - The wakizashi is a companion to the katana in traditional Japanese culture, and so too does she carry this traditional weapon along with her main sword. Possessed by a plague daemon, the short sword has gained a cruel ability: a dual form as a kusarigama, or a chain-sickle. In this form, the weapon's weight, normally a lead or iron weight, is instead a bright green Japanese lantern that absorbs souls for use by her katana. The sickle, instead of having a long handle and short blade, instead has a longer, slightly straighter blade with a shorter handle.
• 地獄の妥協 (Jigoku no dakyō)/Hell's Compromise - This Glock G-18 machine pistol is possessed by a lightning daemon, an angry one to be precise, and as a result the pistol no longer shoots bullets, but instead spits bolts of pure lightning and rage, essentially turning it into a longer range stun gun or taser. Still extremely lethal, the lightning bolts can either behave like regular bolts, or harder, solid lightning bullets that both shock and penetrate with ease.
• 毒の花 (Doku no hana)/Poison Flower - This Serbu Super-Shorty shotgun is also possessed by a daemon, a poison daemon. The pellets that this shotgun fires are no longer actual metal pellets, but round seeds that penetrate flesh easily, and immediately blossom into poisonous vines and plants that spread and entangle themselves in the victim's body, ending him in seconds. However, these plants, if willed by the daemon, can heal instead of hurt.

Abilities

• Enhanced Speed, Strength and Agility
• Enhanced sense of balance

Magic

• Diseased Flesh - Being the Reaper of Famine means that Itsuki's flesh and body are carriers of disease. Getting any of her blood on flesh means a slow, painful death from the toxins that leech into her victim's skin and body from the contact.
• Touch of Death - Itsuki's mere touch saps life from the living. A finger is a slow, sickly drain. Her whole hand is a painful, decaying smoulder that wastes away even the hardiest organic foes. Her touch, however, is nullified if her target possesses armour or a thick, hardy carapace or exoskeleton. Clothes don't stop her touch.
• Corpse Flower - Itsuki is a corpse, plain and simple, and that means that most of her insides don't really work any more, though her flesh and muscle are still corporeal and functional enough to keep her together. Her inner being is a gross, organic fauna that powers her being.
• Unkillable - Being a Reaper means that, by right, Itsuki cannot die, and just like her other Reaper comrades, upon taking damage almost or equal to death, she will not be able to function any more while she regenerates. Her body will shrivel and regrow itself from the bud of a humongous flower that blooms from her corpse, though this process takes much time.

Bio

Voice: Peppy, cheery and quite high-pitched, a typical sounding voice for a Japanese lady her  age.

Personality: Peppy and bubbly, Itsuki is a shining contrast to the other Reapers in her cheerful demeanour. She takes great joy in what she does, not psychopathic joy but true happiness. Sure, she finds the business of death to be a saddening thing, but she believes that helping people along their path to the next life is the best way she can help them. And she's happy because of that. Itsuki loves to be curious too, and especially enjoys learning new things like languages. When it's time to be serious, she can get deadly serious though.

Backstory: Ishida Itsuki was born in a futuristic version of Earth, where technology had accelerated and advanced far faster than our Earth. Tokyo was one of the biggest technology centers in the world, producing much of Japan's drones, robots and AI workers. She spent much of her childhood in wonder and awe of her city's many wonders, yet most were not meant for her. Her child days were spent in a slum, where her parents lived and worked, struggling to maintain jobs and a comfortable life whilst those above them had comfort, pleasure and their desires taken care of by technology.

Through her teenage years she grew jaded and cynical about the life she led, always dreaming and fantasising about the life she wanted. Then, one day, she was "approached" by the leader of a smuggling syndicate. She was to be taken in and trained to be a killer; an ender of lives so that others would prosper. So she accepted. She was mentored in the way of the sword and of the gun, and by her eighteenth birthday the name Ishida Itsuki sent shivers down the spines of rival gangs and even the Yakuza, who had heard of her impossible feats of killing and death-defying escapes from crime scenes. Her rise to criminal stardom led the Tokyo police to brand her the "Flower of Death", in similarity to the flower motif she sported on all of her gear.

Two years followed. Two long years of fighting, killing, slaughtering and shooting. Taking lives, but never giving any. Just like her life in poverty, Itsuki soon grew cynical about her current lifestyle as well. Sure, she was now rich, comfortable and pleased beyond compare, but she wasn't really content. All this death was strenuous on the mind and on the soul.

It was this momentary lapse of focus that cost her her life.

While she took a break and let her thoughts wander, one day, a Yakuza-owned syndicate broke in and captured her. For days, she was tortured, beaten and abused for information on her employers; information she steadfastly refused to reveal. The torture dragged on for days, weeks, even months, and still she held on.

Eventually, growing tired of her antics, the Yakuza deflowered her, tortured her even more, and then left her for dead in a dark, dank cell in the bottom of their home office. She starved to death after two months.

That was their first and only mistake. For it was that very day that the Darkness chose her, a starved soul, a corpse that was wasted away and drawn thin, that lacked a want and a need for life. It gave her life in the form of a seed, as befitted her motif, and the seed blossomed into a plant of death and disease that filled her very soul and body, resurrecting her from her brush with Death to enact vengeance on her captors. She did so with relish, slaughtering and butchering her way through each and every man and warrior she faced until, at the very end, she stood in the penthouse of the office tower, her sword and knife skewered through the chest of the man who had ordered her captured, her weapons sucking his life and soul into her body to be consumed as energy.

Then came a man, behind her, who appeared almost out of thin air.

A man made of shadows.

And behind him, erupting from the wall, another man. A man made of fire.

It was then that Itsuki realised she was not alone. Not when she had comrades.

Friends.

Reapers.

Others

Daemons

Meaning 'devil'. The death daemon that inhabits her sword, Akuma is a calm, collected daemon that contrasts Itsuki's more bubbly nature. Like his two other counterparts, Tac and Renny, he is considered the leader of the four daemons that assist Itsuki in her weapons.

Being a death daemon, Akuma feeds and gains power by consuming life. He does this through her and who she kills. He devours the life essence of the person he wounds or kills, and feeds on souls collected by Sei. When he gains power, so does the sword gain sharpness. At maximum efficiency, or when Akuma is sated and full, the sword glows with a dark purple aura, and it gains a lengthened cutting edge made of that aura, extending a foot and a half past the solid edge of the blade.


Meaning 'life'. Sei is a plague daemon that inhabits Itsuki's wakizashi, and she is closely linked with Akuma. The two are brother and sister, almost, and Sei enjoys Akuma's company immensely and vice versa. Sei is just like Itsuki as well, being quite bubbly and cheery in mannerisms and voice.

Sei's powers and skillset bring slow, painful death to the battlefield. Her wakizashi form is sharp, and every wound she inflicts infects the victim with a fast-acting toxin that numbs and disables the affected area within seconds. Her kusarigama form is sharper, and the chain that links the sickle and the weight can be lengthened or shortened at will. Her weight is a sickly green lantern that absorbs the souls of those she kills simply by being in close proximity to the death. Whenever the time is right, Itsuki lets Akuma drink of the souls collected within the lantern to gain power.


Meaning 'prison'. Goku (not to be confused with the DBZ character) is a lightning daemon that lives in Itsuki's machine pistol. A younger daemon than the rest, Goku is one of those cynical, sarcastic daemons that enjoys anger and combat.

Goku brings lightning and energy to the battlefield. The machine pistol he inhabits can be used to stun, incapacitate or even immolate a target with electric energy. With well-placed shock bolts, he is able to create a lightning prison that effectively disables the target's ability to move.


Meaning 'flower'. This poison daemon is the last daemon of Itsuki's arsenal, and it inhabits her shotgun. Unlike the other daemons, who all have genders, Hana's gender is...ambiguous. It refers to itself as a "we", implying that there are others just like it, linked in a sort of hive mind. Hana is inquisitive and curious, though its robotic nature leaves it as a particularly creepy daemon.

Hana's skillset involves plants, obviously by the name, and the seeds it fires mature and sprout almost immediately when it comes into contact with a target that contains life force or energy, or even warmth or blood to feed on. The plants grown from these seeds spread aggressively and entangle themselves in anything, breaking apart objects from the inside out.
