[color=silver][b][u]Psychological Profile[/u][/b][/color]
Jovial and chatty, and unlike what his appearance would indicate he is a nice fellow. But also as his appearance would indicate, he is a monster and wears a smile like a mask so that he can get away with various heinous plots. A schemer, liar, and manipulator who despite these negative values has a sense of honor and respect. After all, if he was truly without any semblance of decency, he would never be able to control others as well as he desires.

Professionally he does his best to provide the utmost service with the best efficiency as he could. That is to say, he does good enough. When it’s time to work he’s willing to put aside personal feelings to get the job done, but has a certain level of detachment from the job that some might consider him heartless. Which is far from the truth; in his personal life Darc is actually quite emotional and open to heart-to-heart chats and genuinely wants to help others. So long as it helps him too of course. Not the type of man who feels the law must be absolute when he knows it’ll screw over an innocent person, but at the same time petty and spiteful enough to let it happen anyways.


[color=silver][b][u]Background[/u][/b][/color]
The first of many outsiders to come to Earth and join what he refers to as the Mortal Plane. While many demons first arrived to raise havoc among the unprepared and unsuspecting mortals, Darc choose to use the experience to learn more about the world and what he may be up against. When the initial flood of demons were culled by the mortal retaliation force, Darc made sure to lay low and operate in the shadows to escape persecution. It was during that time he gained a feel for his powers in this new world and began to spread his influence via his magic. He targeted the vast amounts of homeless, vagrant, and orphaned as they were of weak will but limitless potential.

For the next few years he honed his spells to create a vast information network consisting of his various familiars, spies, and sleeper agents for two purposes: to root out rival demons and information brokers, and to improve the lot of those under his control. A demon who leads with the carrot as much as he does the stick, he attracted various followers with his promises of success and riches in their lives, and those who served him well were indeed rewarded. They wouldn’t remember him of course, but they would remember the organization that helped them get back on their feet: Underhaven.

Before too long Darc formally joined and began to cooperate with OIA. For the longest time Darc’s success was attributed to the subtly of his magic and domination, but when zealous demon hunters began to harass Darc’s followers and threaten to out his secret he joined OIA to put the threat down. Nowadays Darc still maintains his vast information network to spy on both his enemies and threats around the city, and serves as a humble communications officer to provide live intel and information to any operatives in the field.

[color=silver][b][u]Training[/u][/b][/color]
Familiar Contract - The art of summoning or creating magic familiars. Typically animals or lesser magical beings such as imps, sprites, or fairies. They’re fairly weak in combat but in exchange they have a wide variety of utility abilities, be it magical powers or technical knowledge. Nonmagical beings can be anything from lice on a rat or even another human being. He can command his familiars to do anything he tells them to, with weaker willed ones unable to resist though stronger wills (or at least sapient) can sometimes resist if the command is not something they’d be willing to do.

Familiar Augmentation (Memory) - An offshoot of Familiar summoning which allows Darc to extract, observe, and edit the memory and mental abilities of his familiars. This allows any familiar contracted under him to share their thoughts and perception in real time with Darc should he have reason to need it, as well as manipulate those memories however he desires. This ability only works for his familiars but allows them access to knowledge they might otherwise not have obtained.

Shapeshifting - One of Darc’s natural demon magic which allows him to alter his body in different ways. Weaker than it usually is however; at the moment he’s limited to only being able to transform into other humanoids and without any of their magical abilities, though he shares their physical traits and stats. He mostly uses this to sneak around other mortals or live another life.

Homeless Emperor - Darc has been incognito as the self-proclaimed ruler of the homeless, orphaned, and disitute around New Carcosa. This has allowed him to have close knowledge about the various shady and underground going ons around town, as well has having private information beyond places were the homeless are ignored. He’s made good allies both legitimate and otherwise through his time as the Homeless Emperor, equal to the amount of enemies. 


[color=silver][b][u]Notes[/u][/b][/color]

Darc has lost much of his powers since coming to the mortal realm, and needs time and energy to regain his full strength. He obtains said energy via his Familiar Contracts, siphoning a minuscule amount of energy from his contract holders. He can drain more if he needs to, but keeps it small since he employs a mass amount of contracts to compensate.

Darc also isn’t his real name, it’s merely the most common alias he refers to himself as. He use multiple names and personas to go with it, and he hides his true name so that his enemies can’t use it against him. “Darc Riovas” is his mortal name that he uses for his day-to-day living.

Under his mortal guise Darc has patented an app called Underhaven, meant to provide information to homeless and struggling people to find help either for housing, work, or health. However it also serves a dual purpose as a communication virus that allows Darc to eavesdrop on those who use his app, allowing him to gather information using any device linked to whatever the app is downloaded on, such as wireless speakers, cameras, etc. It's an entirely magical virus as oppose to a purely digital virus. Naturally, it was funded by OIA R&D. [/hider]
