Blood Act I~ Ghosts of the Past

Behold, new character!
"BADDEST MOTHERFUCKER APPEARS!! AN HERO?! OR AN VILLAIN?!"

UserName: Freeshooter92

Character name: Grey Onyx

Age: Appears to be in his late twenties. (About nineteen in reality, but is about as mature as a thirty year-old)

Mageblood type: Ancient

Favoured Magic Class: Rune Crafting

Previous Magic training: Absolutely none. Is completely unaware of his power.

Race: Appears human. (Extremely Advanced Flesh Golem)

Appearance: Grey stands at an impressive (For his supposed race) 6 feet and 3 inches of height. However, it is his height combined with his muscular build that renders him so intimidating. He has short black hair that contrasts with his pale-ish skin tone, and strong features. His right eye appears to be missing, and is usually covered by the ubiquitous eye-patch. His other Eye is a deep violet color for some reason, and the right side of his face is covered in various scars (When asked about the scars, he usually replies that he's had them for as long as he can remember). Internally, his bones and various organs are covered in Runes, though their function is unknown, save that they probably keep him alive. Inside his rib cage, there appears to be a strange sort of crystalline growth, it's purpose unknown. Though if one were to touch it, it would cause him extreme pain.

He carries a set of heavy steel plate, which is unremarkable save the Djarkel emblem on the chest which has been filed/burned off. He carries a Steel Axe and a Steel Shield as well.

Short Bio: Not much is known about this man, save he seems extremely durable, able to survive things that would fairly easily kill ordinary men. He hails from a Djarkel village known as Blacklight, which was constructed from the remains of a military base that was partially destroyed by some sort of vortex. Recently, he has found work as a bodyguard, and is once again looking for employment after the unfortunate demise of his most recent client, which was killed by a heart attack (Get it? Heart attack? Cause she was a vampire? ha... In any event, she had it coming). Has garnered a reputation for his hatred of vampires, and does a bit of work as an armorer on the side.

Origin

Grey is a Golem, probably the most advanced golem to ever exist. He was created by a group of various mages contracted by the Djarkel government as a sort of super soldier project. The plan? Vitamancy to create a perfect body, Necromancy to bind a soul to it, and Runecrafting to keep it all bound. The body was built as a small child, for crafting an adult body would take longer than waiting for a young body to grow. However no ordinary soul from the pit would do. They wanted a soldier capable of thoughts and feelings, able to make the quick judgement calls of a Sentient being. So, they needed a fresh soul, one that was not put through the cycle. To that effect, the head Necromancer, one Gaius Onyx, Decided to use his 18 month old son Grey as a sacrifice, for a child's soul was much purer, and therefore would be more... malleable. However, his brother, Malleus, was opposed to the idea on the moral atrocity that sacrificing an infant. Yet, he went along with it, more out of fear of Djarkels government than anything.

Anyhow, various runes were utilized in the hopes of capturing the soul before it could be sent through the cycle of rebirth. The body was prepared, and the process was started. What they were unaware of, was that things far beyond their power were watching. Now, it's unknown exactly why, but they had somehow managed to anger some entity or another. Possibly. So a subtle sabotage was in order. It would slightly alter several of the runes to throw the carefully manipulated arcanite into disarray, but would spare whatever they were creating, for reasons unknown. As the process begun, the Necromancers readied to get to work. As it started, the process seemed harder to control than predicted, but only Malleus seemed to care. It soon became apparent to the man that if they continued they'd lose control of the arcanite and a Maelstrom would be created. However, the other mages seemed to be in a trance like state, likely caused by the ritual having already progressed to far.

He knew that it was likely everyone would be killed, but he reasoned that as he could not save his nephew or his brother, he could save what they had given their lives to create. Breaking away from his spot, he ran to the creature (as the entity predicted), and dragged it away from the ritual. As Malleus had predicted, a Maelstrom had formed, though with his abandonment of the ritual, it was not near as powerful as it would have been, and though it still completely annihilated the ritual casters, and took most of Malleus' left arm and scarred the creature's face, it left at least half of the fortress intact. He ran to the Apothecarion, and was able to get medical attention for himself and the creatur- no, child. It seemed that only half of the binding ritual was completed; while the child was alive, he was not bound to anyone's will, and was capable of free thought, as he learned when the child awakened in the Infirmary. It had merely asked questions, such as where am I, and so on. It was upon being asked 'who am I?' that Malleus froze. So, he had told the child that he was his nephew, Grey. And the rest they say, is history.

Fortunately, the project was kept secret from all but the researchers, and their knowledge died with them. Malleus was also able to convince the Government's envoy that arrived shortly after that all the researchers died in the accident, and that 'whatever they were doin' in that blasted keep' was lost as well. Luckily, the envoy had not inspected the eight year-old child. After a time, the surviving staff and their families constructed a small town out of the ruins of the fortress. It was there that 'Grey' lived for twenty years, in ignorance of his own true nature. However, possibly as a curse of some sort from the Entity, Malleus was stricken with illness some five years ago, and Grey cared for his beloved uncle for the remaining time he was of this earth. Two years later, he died at the age of 47, of a disease that almost exclusively targeted those much older than he. His last words were as follows. 'Head out into the world, do some good. Your talents are wasted out here, caring for a miserable old man like me.' So, that's what he had done. He decided to become a bodyguard, someone that protects for a living.

Good Attributes:
Perfect body: Grey is physically perfect. Though not superhuman, he is fast, strong, and durable. His armor and size impede his agility however.
Good Soul: Grey is a fairly Altruisitic fellow, concerned for the wellbeing and protection of others.
Adept Armorer: Grey is a fairly good blacksmith, and is capable of forging a few weapons, but his true skills lie with forging armor.
Bladesman: Grey has mastered Axemanship.
Shield Brother: Grey has also mastered the shield.
Resolute: Grey is extremely brave, but not rash. He will never back down. Exceptions exist...
Indomitable: Though means that would kill normal men will still render him unconscious (Such as puncturing a lung or crushing a heart), Grey has a mild regenerative property that can keep him alive long enough to receive medical attention, and might potentially allow him to survive without it. However, this regenerative effect is too slow to influence combat, save that his blood clots very quickly, ensuring he doesn't bleed out. aside from this, he is simply harder to kill in general, given that he can just shrug off weaker blows. In addition, his pain tolerance is legendary. There are limits however, and he is nowhere near invincible.

Bad Attributes:
Large frame: Grey is a big guy, this means he is a big target, and less agile.
Sucker: Grey is quite Naive and easily deceived. He's far too quick to trust, and that gets him into all kinds of trouble.
Achilles heart: The 'Crystal Heart' in the center of his body is his greatest weakness. if it were to be damaged, he would die without immediate attention, as it contains his soul. In addition, if they know to do so, necromancers are capable of controlling him, by completing the bonding ritual. This ritual can bind him to a necromancer's will, forcing him to follow their commands. They can discover that the binding ritual is incomplete by way of studying the crystal heart over the course of about three days time. The ritual takes about six hours.
Goody two-shoes: Grey's kind heart coupled with his naivete render him prone to making fairly stupid decisions. He will not allow himself to stand by when someone's in need (Or is made to think someone's in need).
Cyclops: Though he seems remarkable able to cope, Grey's depth perception is terrible at a distance. His 'range' of unimpeded vision is about 30 feet.
They won't hurt me, they won't...: Grey is extremely paranoid of the inhuman or unnatural. The less human something looks, the less comfortable he feels around them. However, it is possible to work through this with certain species if he is shown there is nothing to fear. He has seen enough Eysires to be unfazed by them, and Elves or dwarves never bothered him. However, things like Naga or Foreas would certainly apply. It should be known this stems entirely from fear, not hatred. While he'll do anything he can to avoid them, he's not a 'torches and pitchforks' kind of guy. Unless you happen to be a vampire.
Monster! You don't belong in this world!: Grey abhors vampires, and unless a convincing enough argument is given (remember, he's gullible but less so with vampires), he will attempt to kill them. Either out of punishment for their evil ways, or as a way to release them from their curse, depending on the person. He just does not believe that a creature that must constantly (more or less) eat people can possibly not be evil. However, this most likely stems from the fact that vampires have fooled him in the past, and gone on to slaughter more people once he had spared them. Someone reasonable like Khan would no doubt be able to convince him to leave the vampires of the college unharmed.
Complex: Grey's internal organs are arranged differently from a human's, in addition he has a redundant nervous system and his internals are covered in runes. While other runes may work to repair the damaged runes inside him, if enough runes are destroyed his healing is rendered completely worthless. In addition, he is much harder to heal by outside means, as the complexity of his body renders him very difficult to be healed by Vitamancy (Harmful Vitamancy effects are just as powerful on him), in addition, a Rune Crafter as well as a Vitamancer is required if heavy damage is to be healed. It is imperative that if a limb is lost, it is recovered, for it may be impossible for anyone to replicate a new one, rather than attach it. And finally, his missing eye may never be healed.

Oh it's not hard to guess. Aarem's was actually forced upon by Ren because of what happened the last time. it turns Gods/Goddesses don't like it when one God manipulates his pawn to kill the others in a mission. :p Here's a OOC hint: Aarem's pawn feels the God's power usually on a daily basis.

Oh, I figured that one was too obvious.

How dare you! Xiah's a lady, she doesn't 'bitch'! She just makes her pet peeves known, keeping her composure and beauty untouched. Nobody's more perfect than Xiah, except maybe Coco, just because she smells like chocolate. :p

IT's done...though, Kudos to those Players that can guess the Pawns the Gods have chosen from the College in their little game. Meet the key Gods/Goddesses of Blood Act, key players in the Blood Plotline. There will be more 'pawns' with each God post, since the game is just beginning and bets being placed.

I guessed all ef 'em pretty easy, 'cept Aarem's, cause I didn't see any information on his at all.
