Name: Damon Light
Epic Identity: Devilstrider
Age: 30
Mutations: Pale skin, short black horns and a traditional devil like tail.
Faction: Freak
Abilities-
Aura/Spirit Manipulation: Damon has never known what to really call what it is he can do, but as near as he can figure it, he can manipulate his inner spirit, or Aura to do some incredible things. Below are some examples.
Aura Beams: Damon can channel his Aura into destructive beams capable of incinerating small buildings. Unfortuantly for this ability to be full power, it has to be the night of a full moon and he has to be fully sated. Otherwise the beams are about as powerful as most handguns at night and only about as powerful as a solid punch from a heavy weight fighter.
Aura Shields: Damon can solidify his Aura into various kind of shields of varying strength, though he's only been able to stop most ammunition, explosions can break them rather easily.
Aura Infusion: This power allows Damon to infuse his aura with himself, changing his hair and eye color and making his red aura visible around him. While doing this, he is much faster, moving at speeds equivalent to your average sports car, though not has fast as most speedster epics. He is also stronger, able to lift large trucks if need be.
Aura Drain: He can drain the energy from others by touch. In fact, he has to do this in order to live. If he doesn't do this at least once a day, he will die. First he'll grow weak and tired, his powers limited, and then he'll start to decay, and eventually die. The more energy he drains, the more violent and insane his mind becomes. Eventually he becomes so consumed by the need to kill and destroy that it is all he is. This accelerates his healing process and only works on living beings. People have different amounts of Aura, epics generally have a lot more and epics with physical enhancements have even more, so they take longer to drain but are better meals for him. Normies take considerably slower to drain, 30 seconds tops, while Epics take a bit longer. He doesn't have to drain people completely if he keeps himself sated, but the hungrier he gets, the more he needs and the more it consumes his mind with the need to feed. He is always feeling the urge to drain other living beings, and has to fight to control this every day.
Nightfriend: Most of Devilstriders abilities are stronger at night, and stronger still in complete darkness. He is capable of seeing in the dark, and when he is feeding off others, it is a much faster process in the dark.
Weakness/Limitations: Damon is powerless when the song Scars by Papa Roach is playing.
Daylight: Part of his mutation is a weakness to sunlight. His powers become weaker, he's slower, even when infused, and his urge to drain living beings of their aura or spirit increases greatly. He can barely control it in the daylight, his actions becoming rash and almost beast like.
Aura Exhaustion: Using his powers uses his Aura and it tires him out, though he can remedy this easily by feeding.
Personality: Damon is generally respectful and gentlemanly. He is driven by a desire to help and to do good, despite all the hate and revulsion he often receives for being a freak. He's the type to open doors for you, ask how your day was, go out of his way to help you. His voice is light, with a sort of haunted tone to it. A quiet despair that only the most perceptive can detect.
There is a viscious hunger to Damon, however. A savageness that lurks under the surface and releases when he is angry or upset. He's very reclusive during the day, often not coming outside and seen by no one. People often report a sort of creepy vibe about him, despite his excellent manners.
Appearance: Damon is tall and lean, his hair is black and wavy and his eyes are ice blue. His features are sharp, his jawline strong, his ears pointed ever so slightly. His horns are black and not very large, slightly curled. His skin is paler than snow. He wears a dark leather trench coat over a black muscle shirt and modified blue jeans to allow his tail freedom from the restricting clothing. Around his neck is a silver pentacle neckless, on his right hand a ruby skull ring. He wears blue jeans and black sneakers.
Aura Infusion Appearance: His hair turns dark red and spiky, a red aura surrounds him and his eyes turn light red and slightly glowing. His horns grow slightly bigger, his tail longer.
Background: Damon was born an orphan in Epic City, abandoned by his family due to their inability to take care of him, along with their drug problems. He learned to fend for himself rather quickly and joined in with a gang at a young age. The gang made him feel at home. Small crimes became bigger crimes and his sense of family and loyalty grew. He lived for this gang, would do anything for them. One night, as they slept in an abandoned, filthy building, Damon woke up to hear his "family" talking about how stupid he was. How gullible he was and their desire to use him. Enraged by what he heard, Damon's powers awoke and so did his hunger and mutation. Without quite realizing what he was doing, Damon began draining his former family, most within a few seconds as it was night. He didn't stop and the rage and brutality he felt increased as he drained them. He killed them, with his new founds ststrength he tore them limb from limb, laughing insanely.
After he came back to his sanity and discovering what had happrned to him he began crying at what he had done, at the monster he was, Damon stumbled away from his now dead family, finding that despite everything he still loved them. After some time and struggle Damon got a handle on his powers. He used them to try and make his community better, fighting crime. He found that if he drained a little at a time, he didn't have to kill and had a better handle on his hunger. He got himself a house and during the day, became a recluse. He bought a nightclub, letting his managers run everything while he kept his social activies minimal due to his mutation.
Criminals in the area have often called him Devilstrider and tales of lifeless gang members, rapists, and other criminals have given him a fearful reputation.
