[h1][center]Par’Sath Eth’Erax (Parsath/Etherax)[/center][/h1]
[h3][center]The Apostle of Death/Guide of the Damned/The Deathless One[/center][/h3]

[h2][center]General description[/center][/h2]
[h3]Race[/h3]
Deathless (Ancient Dragon Heritage)

[h3]Age[/h3]
Parsath lived for millennials. There are no actual accurate records of his existence in the annals of humanity. 

[h3]Size[/h3]
As a spirit-kin, Etherax holds no real form, and thus doesn’t weight nor has an actual height. However, soul-bound set of armor and clothes the Apostle of Death uses to manifest himself to the few rare mortals he appears to are of an imposing approximate of 6 foot and 6 inches tall.

[h3]Gender[/h3]
Again, as a spirit, the Damned Guide has no gender, but used to be a male Dragon in his previous life. His voice is that of a creature whenever spoken, echoing in a deep and sinister whisper.

[h3]Sexuality[/h3]
None. The Deathless Dragon transcended desires as his spirit ascended to become a Deathless.

[h3]Religion[/h3]
Death. Par'Sath worships the concept as something fundamental. To every beginning, there is an end. For every spark of life, there is a final breath. 

[h3]Job[/h3]
Being so attuned to the world of the dead, Parsath Etherax’s occupation is to lead the deceased souls to the Great Beyond and lay them to rest permanently. As such, the Deathless One has undertaken the thankless job of burying/disposing the corpses. In the rare occurrence a funeral is held, Etherax will be the one to conduct the passing ceremony.

[h2][center][b]Personality[/b][/center][/h2]
[indent]The Death Apostle is a keen being. Wise, analytic, focused, calm, those are all adjectives to describe the ascended spirit-kin. It is believed that his enlightened state of mind has destroyed the principles of sins or virtues from his very soul, leaving him as a stern and cold watcher.

However, something obscure and unsettling remains behind this shadowy mask.

[h2][center][b]Biography[/b][/center][/h2]
[indent] In his living, the Black Dragon known as Par’Sath Eth’Erax was of a studious kind. It is said that greed was the driving factor of these mighty beasts, and the Deathless one was of no exception. His lust for knowledge was so great that eventually, after spending so much time among humankind, the Dragon had nothing left to learn. [/indent]

It was after spending so much time wondering what could possibly be done that the immortal being contemplated death. But death would be a waste of his knowledge. To have gathered so much, there was a way to keep it all even as he would disappear from this plane of existence. The more Etherax thought about it, the more he cursed himself for being so greedy. There were uses of this knowledge, but he wasn’t willing to put it to actual use. He had ruled villages, towns, cities, countries, empires even over the eras with this knowledge, but it was vain, as nothing was everlasting, and eternity was a lonesome existence.

One day, the empire Etherax had built had crumbled, as the sudden disappearance of its ruler threw the lands in turmoil and ended the legacy in its aftermath. Since then, Parsath was never heard of again. Some say he got bored of the life of opulence he was living, some said he had been assassinated during one fateful night, his corpse carried away. 

How exactly did this ancient being came from being recruited by Lancelot? Only the infamous Knight and Etherax know. As far as his motives went, perhaps there was still something in the old being that attracted the Deathless to the Dark Knight’s proposal. A fateful uprising that seemed to distinguish this rise to power from the others. Ever since Lancelot took the power for himself, it would appear the sinister sight of a Reaper followed in his wake.

[indent]While being basically ethereal, Par’Sath decided to appear to the mortals as a being akin to an armored monk, or the manifestation of a battle-ready Reaper. The heavy set of armor and robes the Deathless is bounded to gives him a ghostly and gaunt but imposing appearance, towering well over 6 feet high. If it wasn’t for the black void behind his hood, the animated armor could as well be mistaken for a giant of a man.[/indent]

[h2][center][b]Traits and Equipment[/b][/center][/h2]
[hider=Race Description]
[indent] -The Deathless kin are spiritual beings that transcended their mortal shell after obtaining true enlightenment through the course of their life. Because life is short to earn this level of spirituality, beings that hold long longevity or basically immortal are usually the suitable candidates to becoming a Deathless. Needless to say, those spirit-kin are few in numbers, but each devotes themselves to the Great Beyond, in one way or the other.

[hider=Curse/Power Description]
[indent]As an Apostle of Death, Par’Sath Eth’Erax rules over the realm of the dead, but only to an extend. Being the Guide of the Apostles, the Deathless One holds dominion over souls, spirits and literally death. While Parsath is in an area, the Dragon of old controls the flow of souls, effectively seizing them before they can even leave their body, and judges whether someone dies or not.[/indent]

[hider=Spell list]
[list]
[*] [b]Body Reconstruction[/b]
[indent][i]As long as a soul is being held by the Apostle, the latter can effectively reconstruct its old body from scratch. The body lay lifeless as long as its soul is not being returned to the body. However, the journey of a soul back to its body is nothing short of consequences. A returned soul will feel heavily exhausted as they reenter their body, and their magical potency will be reduced by half. This spell can only be used twice on a single body, after which a different method of resurrecting must be used. [/i][/indent]
[*] [b]Soul Reconstruction[/b]
[indent][i]In a similar fashion to reconstructing a body, the Deathless Guide can reconstruct a soul that has been torn asunder, effectively returning a sentient being back to existence.[/i][/indent]
[*] [b]Curse Breaker[/b]
[indent][i]As the Deathless Apostle holds dominion over those fated to die, Lancelot's Priest can effectively remove any curse burdening them.[/i][/indent]
[*] [b]Eternal Rest[/b]
[indent][i]Etherax's command over souls is powerful enough to allow him to cast disembodied spirits back to the Realm Beyond. Any spiritual creature in possession of a soul targeted by this spell are banished from the material world and sent back where they belong to.[/i][/indent]

[list]
[*][b]Aspect of the Deathless[/b]
[indent] Whatever supernatural or physical abilities one might have possessed due to their racial heritage, a Deathless loses all of them, as they are now a shapeless ethereal being that no longer associates with their kin in their previous life. As a spirit-kin, they can no longer be affected by mundane objects. Everything physical or immaterial that aren’t magical in nature cannot affect them. [/indent]

[*][b]Master of Funerals[/b]
[indent] As it was implied for his job, Parsath is a more than an expert when it comes to laying souls to rest. Funerary rituals, grave keeping, praying for the dead; he does it all with mastery.[/indent]

[indent]This powerful artifact has the power to affect someone's time. At the cost of a fraction of their lifespan, the Hourglass can reverse someone's time, completely removing any injury or ailment. This power cannot be used on creatures that cannot die of old age, such as constructs, immortals, the undead, demons and spiritual beings. [/indent]
