I apologize for the wait. But here they are, I hope they are to your liking.

Note: "Baal" is a special case that I had approved by the GM in advance. She already knows the Weaknesses and that he has weaknesses, so don't worry about that.

[hider=Agent Registry]

[hider=Azeal Satanael Crystalis]Name: Azeal Satanael Crystalis

Age: 7,000, Physically 30

Species: Demon Lord

Weapon: Standard-issue BoSA side-arm, but he barely uses it, relying instead on his power and his fists.

Skills: [b][u][i]White Flame Magic[/i][/u][/b]- Though his father was essentially elemental energy made manifest, only an intense level of flames was learned by him, likely due to living in the infernal eighth circle of hell. The flames he produces are so radiant and hot, that they become white  flames capable of melting metal.

[b][u][i]Expert Martial Artist[/i][/u][/b]- His years in the human world weren't for naught. Preferring no weapons other than his fists, he's learned martial arts from across the world for thousands of years; the experience gaining him mastery of martial combat.

[b][u][i]The Deadly Sin of Wrath[/i][/u][/b]- Azeal's Grandfather was the Fallen Angel of Wrath who ruled over the 8th circle of hell before his imprisonment. The power of that sin was inherited by the Angel's daughter, Azeal's mother, and in turn inherited by Azeal himself.

The Flames of Wrath empowers his body and enhances it with each feeling of Wrath that he himself inhibits, to a degree sometimes where his energy bursts out as searing white flames.

In other words: The angrier he is, the more powerful he becomes.

weakness/limits: [b][u][i]Ice and Water[/i][/u][/b]- Being a fire elemental demon lord, Azeal has a natural weakness to the cold and wet. 

[b][u][i]The Downside of Wrath[/i][/u][/b]- His power over the inherited sin of wrath comes with a hefty cost for its usage. For one, the more wrathful he becomes, the less reasonable he is able to be. He'll become more and more like a berserker and eventually unable to distinguish friend from foe.  Furthermore, The energies of wrath is something that can be dangerous even to himself. As anger builds up, so too does the energy of Wrath. Eventually, if enough is built up, it can cause an overload in which his demonic body is unable to handle the energy, resulting in it destroying him from the inside out.

[b][u][i]The Downside of being a Demon[/i][/u][/b]- Despite his intentions, Azeal is still a demon. As such, the common weaknesses against demons, such as holy objects, weapons, etc, as well as exorcisms and what have you, are effective and capable of throwing him back into hell. Obviously, more effort than usual is needed since he's not an ordinary demon, but nonetheless, the same rules of how to deal with one applies to him.

Appearance: [hider=Human Form][img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/fb/bd/2d/fbbd2d40516ef12ee22004be1d65ba1d.jpg[/img][/hider]

[hider=True Form][img]https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/soulcalibur/images/4/42/Inferno3D.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/350?cb=20091210084743[/img][/hider]

(Appearance note: The tattoo on his human arm are not merely for aesthetic purposes. The serpentine dragon tattoo was magically grafted onto that form to measure the levels of his anger and wrath. Starting from the wrists to the shoulders, more of the dragon glows as his anger increases, and fades as it decreases. The more angry he is, the more of the dragon glows, the stronger he becomes. When the gauge reaches his shoulders, the human form reaches its limit and breaks apart, revealing his true form. Somehow removing of the Tattoo, or cutting off the arm that has it will not change how it works, nor will it stop his increase. It is simply a meter for measuring his anger, nothing more.)

Personality: Despite his status as a Demon Lord, and his reputation as an heir to wrath, Azeal is actually...quite kind and optimistic, albeit loud and cocky. He willingly joined the BoSA to assist in helping protect the world and its people from anything that may harm it, and he's more than willing to protect his comrades within the bureau.

Often times, he can be quite laid-back and relaxed to the point of slothful and lazy. As such, he is also a bit carefree and always seems to have confidence that things will always turn out just fine in the end.

On the other hand when he's not like that, he's confident to the point of boastful, and seems to have a great pride in his skills as a fighter and in his powers as a Demon. So much pride, in fact, that he becomes incredibly upset when when one damages that pride. This is less because of his personality, and more an instinct he was raised at birth to have. As a Demon of Fallen Angelic lineage, he was taught that pride is the single most important element that a demon could hold, due to its relation to a certain fallen angel.

However, unlike most demons, he has sympathy for the weak, an interest in humanity, and even a respect for angels, as well as a hatred for those who prey upon the weak, be they human, demon, or otherwise.

Bio: Born in the 8th circle of hell to a Great Demon Lady - daughter of a Fallen Angel - and a being of sentient elemental energy, Azeal was raised as an heir to his mother's power, yet oddly not to the morals of the demons of hell.

His mother, the Demon Lady Belladonna, was said to be the daughter of wrath, or rather the incarnation of the sin of Wrath, and was a master torturer of the souls who were cast to her level. In truth, however, She was indolent to the ways of her fellow demons, not caring much for the "Might makes right" ideology they seem to inherently possess and hold sacred. She still held the fallen angels who crafted their entire existence in admiration, and still felt the pleasure and need to torture the souls who come her way, but she also saw value and use in the more weak and pathetic of her kind than the strong and entitled fools who tramples on them.

What helped as well was the being that came to be Azeal's father, the crystalized elemental energy being, Zion Crystalis. While his origins were unknown, he ruled over a race of beings like himself and valued the preservation of life and innocence, he and his race serving as nomadic vigilantes for that very reason. In Belladonna's eyes, she saw someone who had both strength to be the best and the intellect to realize what matters beyond that strength, and was attracted to him as a result, bearing their child, Azeal.

Azeal was raised by the both of them during his childhood, albeit separately. Belladonna taught him the ways of Hell, of Demons, of why the souls that come were needing to be tortured under her care, and how to harness the Wrath he inherited from her. Zion, on the other hand, taught him the values of morality and responsibility, seeing as how he was the son of two beings of an authoritative status. Backed up by Belladonna, Azeal was taught the value of protecting the innocent and weak, while keeping himself strong enough to do so. In a realm where strength and power dominates all things, one has to be strong and clever in order to protect the helpless. Eventually, he managed to become a Demon Lord in his own right, establishing his own kingdom in hell reserved for the weakened and helpless of the realm.

This responsibility eventually led him to an interest, a curiosity if you will in humanity. The more he looked at the way of the living human world of Earth, the more he began to realize how similar the humans were to demons. They had people who was just as cruel as any demon down there, and people just as noble and justified as Zion and his race. There were strong ones, weak ones, smart ones, dumb ones, and just about everything in between. Their variety fascinated Azeal, and so with his mother's blessing, (Destruction of evil humans, lead to more souls falling to where she was after all, why WOULDN'T she want that?) he extended his responsibilities to the human world, and ascended to Earth.

From the shadows, his flames punished the particularly despicable and loathsome of mankind, as well as any other creatures of the paranormal or the supernatural that were messing with the humans. Eventually getting the attention of the Angels, Azeal's natural enemy as a Demon. At least, that's how they were suppose to be seen, but their existence as beings of order perplexed and fascinated the young Demon Lord, just as much as the humans did. Eventually it got to a point where he fell in love with one of these Angels, becoming his wife and bearing two children of his own.

Needless to say, the higher ups of the angels were not happy about this. A god of light descended upon the starcrossed lovers, and punished them for their taboo. The Angel was cast down from heaven, and Azeal himself, after giving his at-the-time-born children to a friend to keep safe, was chained and cast into a great darkness, to be sealed for an eternity.

Thousands of years later, Zion and Belladonna sought help from the Bureau of Supernatual Affairs to assist in finding and releasing their son. They eventually found and broke the seal, releasing the wrathful demon lord onto the world once again, quick to find that his two children have grown up to be fine upstanding heroes of the universe, and that his wife was alive, but long forgotten him as per her punishment. Though depressed by this current state of affairs, when asked by the Bureau, who was promised a "weapon" by his parents should they help them release him only for that weapon to be him, to join them in protecting humanity from the supernatural, he was quick to accept. Ever since he became an Agent of the BoSA, serving as a big gun that would come for particularly dangerous or particularly agressive enemies.[/hider]

[hider=Sora Grimoire]Name: Sora Grimoire

Age: Physically 17, 1 century in actuality

Species: Reaper

Weapon: The Standard issue BoSA Side-arm Pistol. But in addition, a Deathscythe, the Signature and standard weapon of a Reaper.

Skills: [b][u][i]Enhanced body[/i][/u][/b]- Being a Reaper with a physical form, it's natural to assume that he is physically stronger, faster, and more agile than a normal human.

[b][u][i]Spirit Medium[/i][/u][/b]- Sora has a natural connection to the Spiritual world due to being a reaper. As such, he is able to commune with the dead, let them into him, and can even see their final moments before their passing, using what they say and see to his advantage, and the advantage of the Bureau.

[b][u][i]Dark Magic/"The Reaper's Touch"[/i][/u][/b]- As a Reaper, Sora has a magical affinity for the Darkness and Death. Thus he possesses the power to utilize Dark Magic and the signature abilities of the Reapers, "The Reaper's Touch".

The Dark Magic is self-explanatory, Magic involving darkness, shadows, and night. While not his very best abilities, he can use it for most occasions of battles and has trained himself to be an expert in using it.

On the other hand, there is his signature magic, the "Reaper's Touch". Concealed inside his black gloves are hands entirely of bones and irradiating a dark and cold aura of magic around them. Aside from hunting the lost souls and undead, a reaper's task is to reap the souls of the recently departed from their soon-to-be corpses, ending what little life they have left to free them from their coil. The Reaper's touch is the key to this; a reaper's real hands are irradiated with the magic of Death. On its own, a touch from a Reaper's true hand can cause decay upon the surface, and can cause death to the near-dying. In addition, it is by these hands that death spells can be used.

It is however, inferior to the genuine article, the Touch of Death. The rate of decay much slower, life energy is drained at a slow rate as oppose to being instantaneous, and to top it off, the reapers are heavily restricted and rule-bound by their god's opposite, the God of Life. They, Sora included, must abide by these rules and avoid draining life from anyone who isn't ready or necessary for it to be used on, or face obliteration and their rule-breaking reversed.

(In other words, unless it's specifically required for the job, if Sora attempts to use this to kill someone who isn't already about to die, then he himself will die and the attempt will be reversed. My own personal consequence for the potential god-modding that this kind of power may imply.)

Weakness/Limits: [b][u][i]There's always someone stronger[/i][/u][/b]- The law of progressive strength applies even to the supernatural world. No matter how strong someone is, there can always be someone who is stronger. There can be multiple creatures and beings that are physically better than Soura.

[b][u][i]The Downsides of being a Spirit Medium[/i][/u][/b]- Not all spirits are friendly or cooperative. His natural connection with the spirit world makes him able to sense and be spiritually attacked by hostile/vengeful spirits, phantoms, specters or wraiths. Prolonged exposure to the spirit world can be dangerous even for him due to these potential attacks on the mind and soul.

[b][u][i]Light/Life Magic[/i][/u][/b]- Reapers are not like demons; while they are cruel and monstrous in their job to do what must be done, they are not necessarily malevolent in nature. However, they are still creatures of darkness and Death, physical manifestations of that inevitable truth. Ergo, the magic of light can weaken their dark powers, while the magic of life, such as the magic of blood, water, and plants, is negating factor of their existence and as such, is essentially kyptonite for them. The laws of recovery is reversed for these entities as a result.

(To be clear, this does not mean they can't be anywhere near these things, it'd make their work excruciatingly difficult if that was the case. It simply means magic involving these things is damaging for them.)

Appearance: [img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/cf/a8/33/cfa833252736a4d491a9a4f2d1ee9583.jpg[/img]

He has black gloves on his hands. Like Azeal's tattoo, this is not just an aesthetic choice. Behind those gloves are hands of black bones irradiating a dark magic, the "Reaper's Touch". The gloves are designed to not only hide the grotesque hands from sight, but to contain and seal the dark magic they give out.

Personality: A bit of a stoic, silent type of guy despite his age as the "youngest" of the Reapers. He's not the type to start a conversation, and prefers not to talk with others for any longer than is necessary. That's not to say he's a jerk though, he can be relatively kind, and has enough of a sense of humor to laugh at a decent Joke every once in a while. It's more that he just prefers putting more focus on his job as a agent and a reaper than on the social activities of others.

People, even in the Bureau, don't often see that passive, soft-natured side of him, for the persona he has around others is that of a cold and heartless monster. He follows the orders of his superiors to the letter, and let not a single shred of sympathy, compassion, or pity allow him to make an exception. This ESPECIALLY goes for the Undead and Ghosts, the things he was created to throw back into the arms of Death. As such, can also be seen as incredibly racist against the Undead. It would not matter to him if it was the spirit or zombie of a man, a woman, or even a child, he would cut them all down without relent.

...Or at least, that's what he wants people to believe. However, if one truly gets to know him, they may understand why he gives himself such a cruel reputation.

As a reaper, he sees the value of life as its lived by others, but at the same time, he knows all too well the inevitability of Death that looms across everyone in this realm that he meets. The human members of the BoSA being no exception to this. No matter how much he likes somebody, or any living thing for that matter, or how much he tries to protect someone, he knows that eventually, in the end, he will have to be the one to reap their souls when their time comes. It will have to be him who makes them draw their last breath and there is nothing he can do about it; if he doesn't, another Reaper will.

Because of this, he often prefers to be distant from others, preferring they live their lives how they want, instead of wasting it on a Reaper like himself. This train of thought has often led him to having something of an inferiority complex, thinking himself as unimportant or a waste of space compared to the rest of them. The Undead returning to Death is a priority hardwired into his very soul and so there's nothing he can do to change his opinion of them. However, in secret, he would often try to comfort the ghosts and undead, to ease their fears of death and try to make smooth their passing from the physical realm.

Moreover, as a Detective, he had a deep interest in solving the mysteries of the murders he investigated, and a deep hatred for the perpetrator of said murders. Every time he encounters a murder scene, he enacts a last rite to soothe the likely distorted and vengeful soul of the victim, promising them justice as he guides them into Death's hand.

Bio: Before the BoSA came into existence, it was a task of the Grim Reaper to extinguish all paranormal traces of life from the world. The ghosts and undead, souls that were said to have escaped his grip when a culling of souls was in session, were to be returned to his hand and taken to where they belong. However, as times passed, with more souls Death took from the world of the living, even more souls escaped his grip and the realm of the dead, creating more and more ghosts, ghouls, and zombies to a degree where they are well-known, albeit in ways of superstition or myth, in the living society.

So as to assist in returning the paranormal back into its hands where they belong, Death created from himself offsprings. Thee beings, the reapers, were tasked with the daily duties of the great grim one across the multiverse, and with taking back that which rightfully belongs to Death. While most reapers had their own ways of doing these things, Sora, one of the youngest known reapers took an adaptive method, making a place for himself in the living society as a Paranormal Investigator and overall Spirit Detective.

For a long while, Sora spent his life in fascination of the living people around him, yet all too aware of his mission as a Reaper. To fulfill both his desire and goal, he took a job as a Detective, studying the ways of Police and detectives throughout the years and using his abilities as a Reaper to his advantage. By day, he's using his knowledge and spiritual power to find and capture living murderers, of whom he casts a death penalty onto so as to satisfy his master. By Night, he is hunting down the nearest ghosts and undead he could find, and sending them back into his master's cold hand once more.

Eventually, his presence as a detective caught the attention of the BoSA, whom at first thought of him as a murderous demon of darkness due to his vigilante nature towards murderers. However, upon investigating his life further, they realized that he was not truly much different from them, and invited him to join their cause.

Sora, seeing the cooperation of the BSoA as a far easier method of performing his life's work, accepted the Invitation and joined them.[/hider][/hider]

[hider=A-class Criminal File Cabinet]

[hider=Codename: Baal][color=ed1c24][b][i]-CLASSIFIED- CRIMINAL FILE CODENAME: "BAAL"[/i][/b][/color]

Name: "Baal", real name unknown.

Age: Unknown

Species: Based on what little information the Bureau managed to gain, it seems Baal is some kind of Divine entity. Though what exactly that entails, whether he be a God or simply an Angel, is currently unknown.

WANTED FOR: Suspicion of masterminding and/or funding many terrorist acts of regular, supernatural, and even alien type, establishing murder and suicide cults, blackmail, assassination hiring, and backing support of multiple criminal activities including but not limited to Mafias, black markets, and human experiments. (Suspicion only, due to lacking evidence, eyewitness detail, and having some fairly powerful people in his pocket.)

STATUS: Active

Weapon: Believed to be a short sword encased in a cane.

Skills: [b][u][i]Divine Magic and Knowledge[/i][/u][/b]- Much like Cal Cium, Baal seems to possess a level of magic and knowledge that could only be described as "ancient". But whereas Cal gained that knowledge in the ancient times or Arcane magic, Baal seems to have knowledge and power that implies he's from the heavens themselves, which is the information that led to the conclusion that he's some kind of divine entity. 

[b][u][i]Master Manipulator[/i][/u][/b]- Beyond even the magical power and knowledge he possesses, the greatest threat this criminal is known for is his intelligence and his knack for control. It's unknown whether this is due to his powers, or if he's just really good at getting people to his side, but Baal seems to be able to get people to come to his side, join his cults, and follow him to the ends of the earth...quite literally if the beliefs of these cults are put into consideration. 

[b][u][i]Master Swordsman[/i][/u][/b]- He has a cane sword, and he damn well knows how to use it. Many many years of experience and practice has made him a master of the sword.

Weakness/limits: Unknown

Appearance: [img]https://i.pinimg.com/736x/3e/fc/63/3efc63fff3194a62c1247a2b92451b77--anime-guys-manga.jpg[/img]

Personality: Baal is an incredibly charismatic leader, with a multitude of faces for just about any occasion.

To the public eye, he looks and acts no different to any other human. He's kind, polite, well-mannered, even humble and apologetic. He admits to whatever mistakes he makes, he's sympathetic to those who have lost others, and he seems relatively concerned for the well-being of his fellow man. As a leader, he is passionate, and more than able to have others follow him to the ends of the earth.

But in the end, this is all a ruse.

His true face is much colder, more calculating, and more apathetic to the lives of others than he lets on. In truth, he has no sense of empathy for others, no feeling for anyone or anything on this planet, or in this universe for that matter. To him, they are nothing more than sheep or lemming he feels compelled to make follow him like a shepherd and fulfill his will rather than their own. For this reason, he could sacrifice any number of living or dead things, be it those who are on his side or in his cults or not, and would not feel a thing. As such, he has a conniving mind that sees people as tools to be manipulated and used.

In that respect, Baal has a God complex, combined with a sense of solipsism. He truly believes himself the center of the universe, of which the universe hinges upon to exist. So he believes as such that his word and order is the voice of the universe and his desires that of the masses. It's perhaps because of that that he also has a Nihilistic point of view for the world, speaking of hope for a brighter future, yet believing there's naught to be found there. These combined emotional factors makes this man possess a dangerous mentality.

Bio: The entity known as "Baal" has existed long before the Bureau, or even the MIB came to be. After the BSoA was formed, Baal was one of the first things they looked into, an Elusive man who has been in the shadows of history since ancient times. No one knows his true name, or what he even is for that matter. The fact that he's a divine entity alone was information gained at the cost of an agent's life.

What's known about Baal is that, since ancient times, he has been in the shadows, and indirectly responsible for most of the man-made catastrophes of history. Every religious war and crusade, every event of humans sacrificing other humans or doing horrific acts all for the sake of their gods, war in general, and other such atrocities were backed, supported, or indirectly manipulated into happening by Baal's influence. Cults founded on the evils of man were usually first formed by this man under different names. He's apparently been in the background of history for thousands of years, committing atrocities either directly or indirectly. Whether these were with a bigger goal in mind or simply for his own personal entertainment or gain is unknown.

When his existence became known during the early days of the Bureau, there were many attempts to capture him, but he was able to slip past them at every turn, using his knowledge of society and the laws that surround it to his advantage. Furthermore, any agents who tried to arrest or assassinate this being were never heard from again.

A warning for any agents who attempt to bring him in: Baal is intelligent, powerful, and knows how the world works around him. The possibility of his divinity cements his place among some of the most dangerous criminals the Bureau would have to contend with.

Act at your own peril.[/hider]

[hider=Codename: The Vampire][color=ed1c24][b][i]-CLASSIFIED- CRIMINAL FILE CODE-NAME: "THE VAMPIRE"[/i][/b][/color]

Name: "The Vampire", Real name Unknown

Age: Unknown

Species: While the codename of this serial killer is "The Vampire", it's actually not known what it truly is, let alone if it's "actually" a vampire.

WANTED FOR: Multiple gruesome serial murders of both men and women. The Bureau is still looking for a Pattern between the many victims, but they have established The Vampire's Modus Operandi being the same for each one, confirming that they are Serial in nature.

STATUS: Active

Weapon: BoSA Anthropologists do not have a solid guess as to the weapon it uses for its kills. While the MO is the same each time, the wounds on the victims are sometimes different from each other. So far, they can ascertain from these wounds that these weapons are massive, sharp, and some seem to go straight through the body. Ergo, they suspect the perp carries around bladed weapons, far larger than a knife and thicker than your average sword, possibly more than one given how different the wounds seem to be. It's possible that one of these weapons is a Chainsaw.

Skills: [b][u][i]Cellular Manipulation[/i][/u][/b]- Given the nature of its MO kills and the crime scene itself, anthropologists suspects that the Vampire has Cellular manipulation powers, and is an expert, possibly a master of the art. It's for this reason that they gave the perpetrator the codename "Vampire" in the first place.

It is possible the Vampire has other abilities, but it's currently unknown as to what they are. Like Baal, nobody who has seen the Vampire in action lived long enough to tell the tale.

Weakness/limits: [b][u][i]The downsides of Cellular Manipulation[/i][/u][/b]- Fortunately for the Bureau, if she does have cellular manipulation powers as the Anthropologists predict, then there are weaknesses and limitations to consider. The victims all had giant wounds on them that were inflicted before their deaths. If they could hollow out their victims to the bone, why leave the giant wounds at all? It's likely because they HAVE to open them up in order to suck them dry, which means the Skin somehow negates the blood manipulation like a shield.

Furthermore, Cellular manipulation implies that they are capable of controlling their own blood, and should they ever use this offensively against someone, they would logically need to use their own blood if nothing else is available, and that can be very dangerous for them. The only reason they could be taking the blood from others that would be thought of would be nourishment, to supplement their own blood in the event of needing to use their power offensively. Meaning that Blood loss is not only a viable weakness, but one they're aware of and are trying to keep from happening.

Hypothetically, if the Vampire DOES have other powers, then it's likely there's more weaknesses to consider as well.

Appearance: ???

Personality: The Vampire's exact and accurate personality's a complete unknown. What's written down here is merely a hypothetical conjecture of what the Vampire's personality is like, based solely on what the Anthropologists found on and within the crime scene.

The crime scenes always seems to be the victim's residence, be it permanent or temporary. If it's not a house or an apartment building, it's a hotel room that the victims are staying in. There is no sign of forced entry, and the state of the room before hand suggests that the victim and perp were having a time to themselves before the killing commences. A scent of perfume and cologne usually hanging in the air if the crime scene was discovered early enough. Furthermore, none of the neighbors mentioned that anyone suspicious came to their houses or rooms and assuming they walked right out the door after the murder, there was still no sign of anyone suspicious leaving either.

The evidence depicts the Vampire as elusive, possibly an actor/actress with a knack for trickery and temptation, and given the state of the body, likely possesses an extreme and disturbing amount of psychopathic sadism. The fact nobody suspected anyone suspicious coming in or out of the room, plus how they're casually able to be invited in suggests that the Vampire is capable of getting onto the good side of their target, possibly capable of changing personalities on the fly to suit the individual target. A dangerous notion, seeing as how that means the Vampire has the capability and intelligence to put on whatever she wants to elude the cops and the BoSA both. To top it off, to be able to be invited in also suggests a level of acquaintance with their target, implying that they could be able to get along with their victims and get to know them before committing their murder, possibly romantically involving themselves into their victims' lives. Given how their victims are both genders without any sign of favoritism for a particular one, it's possible that the Vampire is also bi-sexual, assuming of course they're approached and well-met the exact same way.

However, as mentioned before, until someone actually meets the Vampire in person and lives to tell the tale, there's no exact way to tell what the personality of this killer is REALLY like.

Bio: The Vampire first showed up about a year or two ago. The first victim was a married couple in a house in a small town in Pennsylvania. The two were hung by their limbs, their heads off and torso split wide open, and their blood and organs, even the blood veins and their brains from their decapitated were all gone from their bodies, leaving only the literal skin and bones. Despite how gruesome the death was, the area was cleaned up nicely save for specks of the victims' blood here and there.

After which, similar gruesome murders began showing up across the country with the same Modus Operandi as the first, albeit in different specific ways regarding their death. Some were skewered to death, some decapitated swiftly, and the more unlucky ones were horrifically mauled and gutted by what can only be assumed to be chainsaws and other gruesome weapons of a similar kind.

The Modus Operandi that they were able to narrow down with this Serial Killer was this: Every victim's time of death was somewhere in the middle of the night, though exact times vary. The victims are always in tied up in some way (thankfully with clothes still intact most of the time) in a place outside their living room, such as the bathroom or their bed room, and immediately gutted open in gruesome messy ways. Yet despite the methods, strangely enough, the neighbors hear no sound, and the crime scene is [i]completely[/i] clean with the only sign of a violent murder being the corpse of the victim, completely hollowed out. There isn't even a trace of blood for Luminol to react to under normal circumstances.

Completely baffling the Police and the FBI both, this case was given to the MiB for investigation, but eventually the MiB passed it off to the BoSA, who gave it the codename "Vampire". As far as they know the Vampire is still active and killing people around the country, and has placed it on the supernatural most wanted list. Currently, BoSA agents are on the case trying to find and bring this supposedly crazed murderer to justice, but have yet to find or capture it.[/hider]

[hider=Codename: Shadow King][color=ed1c24][b][i]-CLASSIFIED- CRIMINAL FILES CODENAME: "SHADOW KING"[/i][/b][/color]

Name: Blackade Scotus/Codename: "Shadow King"

Age: 10,000, according to him, could simply be an approximate guess seeing as how he's unsure of his exact age Physically speaking, his human form looks 40.

Species: An organism born and comprised in magical darkness, known as a "Shadow Beast" for short. Supposedly the first of their endangered kind.

WANTED FOR: Mass Genocide of his own race, as well as multiple cases of self-defense or Vigilante murder, and destruction of property.

STATUS: Was Captured, but is currently released on good behavior and put on BoSA-supervised Probation.

Weapon: He carries a black rapier on him where ever he goes, and usually fights with the scabbard 

Skills: [b][u][i]Master of Darkness and Shadow[/i][/u][/b]- As not just a creature of Shadow, but a founder and master of an entire race of creatures like him, Blackade has complete mastery over the darkness and shadow magic. In his true form, he is quite literally one with the darkness, and of course, the power is at its strongest in an area where no light can shine. As one might expect, he is stronger at night than he is in the daylight.

[b][u][i]His True Form[/i][/u][/b]- Because his true body is essentially a giant mass of darkness, it is capable of taking in and consuming objects such as cars or people, as well as blasts not associated with light. In addition, should he have the power to, should he gain enough darkness, he can reproduce creatures of shadow from his body, the same thing he did that created the race he ruled over and then destroyed.

[b][u][i]Expert Swordsman[/i][/u][/b]- In his human form, he has learned the art of swordplay in order to defend himself without resorting to his true form. Centuries of experience with a rapier has made him a professional expert of the craft.

Weakness/limits: [b][u][i]Light Magic[/i][/u][/b]- As one might expect from a being of complete darkness, he possesses the obvious weakness of light or light magic. This of course means that the brighter and more filled with light a place is, the weaker Blackade becomes as a result. A large amount of light is enough to make him human in strength and power, and light magic has the potential to harm or even kill him if its intense enough. This also means that, unless one somehow eclipses the sun, he is weaker in the Day than he is at night.

Technically speaking, the Shadow King's true form is...formless and shapeless. A mass of darkness that can shape itself however it sees fit. However, he killed his entire race and devoured them back into him, subjugating them to his will. Hence the form you see here.[/Hider]

Personality: Contrary to his title, his reputation, and his true form, Blackade Scotus is not nearly as monstrous as is believed. One look at his human form and you wouldn't believe that he was some ancient monster, nor that he would commit a genocide of an entire race.

Blackade is often depicted as a silent and calm, but ultimately kind and sincere man. He rarely ever smiles, and when he does, it's a small one, as if hiding his depression behind one. He can be something of an Extreme introvert, as well as antisocial, preferring to not be around anyone, let alone let anybody try to get to know him.

However, just because he is unsocial does not mean he is unsympathetic or caring. Blackade has an overwhelming sense of justice and if he ever sees an injustice fall upon an innocent life, he would not hesitate to intervene to save it, even if it means killing the one causing it. He would be willing to give his own life to protect others, and warn anyone doing wrong against him or others in advance to not provoke him into combat, as he admits he is not above killing if he has to. Of course, he's aware that in the eyes of those he protects, he will always be considered a monster for those deaths, and he has accepted this branding long ago.

This ideal of heroism is less because of his own care for the happenings of the world and its people, and more for his own sense of redemption. He often feels a great regret for what he has done and created in his lifetime. To this day, he considered the destruction of his own race as justified; they were a race of monsters that ran on the instinct for destruction and conquest, and so needed to be stopped. He himself was no different long ago, he too was a being who desired the consume the world in darkness, not caring who would be destroyed or suffer for doing so.

After his change of heart, however, he developed a sense of self-loathing, always prepared to make amends and retribution for his actions all those years ago by sacrificing himself. This is the reason why, when he was done with ridding the world of the Shadow beasts for good, he turned himself in to the BoSA, and stayed in that prison without resistance. After he was let loose, he striven to be better, and while he is still deemed a wanted criminal by the BoSA for his actions, he willingly cooperates with them, should they ask for his help.

Bio: A long time ago, during an age of great conquest across the world, there was a pagan god, more fascinated with the art of science and the ways of nature than in the ways of magic or divination. He had not the power of his kind to create simply by willing, and so he decided to seek another way to make his own creations. By taking the blood of a powerful warrior, from even longer ago, among the first of them in time, he split off a fragment of darkness from the void itself, and mixed it together with the warrior blood. Using his own power over sapience, the darkness made flesh was given life and evolved into a beast of the darkness and shadows of existence.

As the God placed it into existence, he found the instincts of the warrior blood has made the dark beast grow savage and monstrous against the conquering warriors of man, killing and consuming all he came across. He eventually was beyond the god's control, yet the god unable to intervene to stop his creation due to the rules of his kind.

The dark beast grew, and eventually gained the ability to reproduce smaller creatures of darkness from his body as he consumed more things into it, and so the race, the army, Shadow Beasts were born with Blackade Scotus as their "Shadow King".

Throughout history the Shadow Beasts lurked in the darkness and the underground, multiplying in numbers and setting out to secretly consume and take over the world from the shadows. However, their plans were ruined when they went against a human monarch, a mighty queen in fact, and was defeated with the power of the light. The Shadow King fell and the beasts that he made scattered as a result, as he himself was reduced to a human form by the burning light of the sun.

It's unrecorded what exactly happened to him between then and more recent years. It seems he had a change of heart during that time, however, and decided to make amends by getting rid of his own race of monsters. After he committed genocide on his entire race, ending at around the time the BoSA was first established, he turned himself in and surrendered to the Bureau, arrested and captured by them for many years. He was, however, eventually let out on good behavior, but would be constantly monitored by the BSoA from then on in a state of Probation.[/hider][/hider]
