A fruit found in Hawai'i that smells and tastes like human vomit despite how healthy it is for you. Supposedly. [/list] [u]Personality[/u] An introvert by heart, Johnathan generally keeps to himself most of the time and works from the seclusion and comfort of his home rather than going to the building of the company he works for. Despite his antisocial tendencies and his dislike for human interaction in general, Johnathan doesn't mind being around small groups of close friends or family members and is very comfortable during interactions with other players in the game, although he has shown little patience when dealing with people, both in the real world and the game, who constantly need help solving problems or doing thing's that they should be capable of doing on their own. [u]Background[/u] Born to a hard working family from the manufacturer section of the city, Johnathan grew up in a home where hard work was valued and slacking off was not. This was a lesson that he took to heart as he got older, slowly working on getting into a college where he then worked for four years on his Bachelor's degree in computer science, a field he'd always been interested in since he was little. Once he'd finished getting his education, Johnathan did some freelance work for a couple of small start ups and firms before going on to apply for a job at a local agricultural corporation that severely needed people who were skilled in both front and back end development of websites and Johnathan, being skilled in both, was a perfect fit for the job. After several years of working there, a friend of his introduced him to a new online VR game called the UNIVERSE and Johnathan was hooked. After that first session Johnathan went on to buy and set up a mid end gaming station in his home, one that was both reliable and easy to transport. Playing whenever he got the chance, Johnathan, going by the name Zelevas in game, quickly became one of the most skilled players currently online. As a matter of fact, he was so skilled, he caught the attention of the Legion of Lions, one of the most well known clans in the game. A few of their members who were playing against him in a ranked PvP match asked him to join their clan. He accepted and the rest is history.

While he does collect resources from numerous fantasy worlds, Johnathan tends to stick to Dark Soul's, Kings Field, or Bloodborne worlds as the inherent difficulty within those locations, as well as their age within the gaming community, makes the value of drops found there skyrocket. [hider=Castle Ravenloft][img]https://i.pinimg.com/originals/9a/24/9e/9a249e7e84ca85dfabcd4234ed1ab58a.jpg[/img][/hider] [u]Fame[/u] Recognizable. [u]Weapons[/u] Two steel long swords & a dagger, each equipped with a Ghostblade decal. (The thing that makes them emit that green, wispy, glow) [u]Armour[/u] Nazgul armor and hooded helm. [u]Utility[/u] Bag of Holding: A leather pouch that is worn on the waist and has infinite space inside for storing items. If the bag is torn or cut open in some way, then all of the items within will be permenantly lost. Should the wearer die, the bag will remain at the last location the player was in for up to a day before disappearing. 3 (+5) Estus Flasks: A glowing glass bottle filled with liquefied soul essence. It functions the same way here as it does in Dark Soul's, all the way down to having to rest at a bonfire from a Soul's world in order to refill it. [u]Mount[/u] A black war horse. [u]Artifacts[/u] [hider=Black Lantern Ring] [img]https://i.pinimg.com/originals/41/db/70/41db7036dcdb4bfeb37b2d6adbc89631.jpg[/img] This in game artifact functions in relatively the same way as it's comic counterpart, but with some minor differences. Instead of simply turning the user into a mindless undead slave under the control of Nekron and fueling its powers via the removal of others hearts or through the use of a Black Lantern Battery, it instead feeds off of the users own life force. So the more power used, the more health is taken. The ring also has another debuff it applies to the player known as Withering, which can only be cured once the ring is unequipped, that causes the player to become progressively weaker physically the more they use the ring. Some of the rings other properties have remained the same though such as giving the wearer an immunity to magic, applying the Black Lantern suit motif to the player's avatar, sending out dark tendrils that root themselves into the users body making it impossible to steal or unequip by anyone other than the user (or a dev), the ability to create constructs and the like from necrotic energy or use said energy to fly, and the ability to read the emotions of others which appear as coloured aura's of varying intensities. The ring cannot, however, regenerate damage taken by its wearer and therefore must be used very sparingly in prolonged fights. The black lantern rings have also been reported by players as being very painful to use, with some players downright refusing to even wear them due to the intense burning and stabbing pain that radiates throughout their entire body while the artifact is equipped during play. In order to activate the ring, a player must equip it and recite the oath of the Black Lantern Corp. which is as follows... [i]"The Blackest Night falls from the skies, The darkness grows as all light dies, We crave your hearts and your demise, By my black hand, the dead shall rise!"[/i] (Please be aware that such artifacts are EXTREMELY rare. The Black Lantern Rings can also be countered and destroyed by White Lantern Rings, light based powers, and the light/power of a Green Lantern Ring when it is combined with a ring of another color on the emotional spectrum. In regards to Lantern Batteries and their effects on the Lantern power rings themselves, the issue is still a matter of contention amongst players as some rings seem to respond differently to their respective lantern batteries than other's do. A perfect example of this is the ring Zelevas has, which does not need Black Lantern Batteries in order to recharge or even exist. It is still not known if this is a bug of some kind or the way the devs intentionally designed these specific artifacts to function)[/hider] [/hider]
