In centuries past, but not too many, there lay a united empire in the east under one banner of Sepulchre, a powerful and prestigious mage of mysterious lands, that has found its way out of the age of strife and into an era of peace. How the banner of Sepulchre came to be was unknown, but it was clear that he himself was the one responsible in ushering a new era of peace through the unification of the Warring Clans of Halcyon of the most eastern part of the continent and the Kingdom of the Royal Sultan Aslan.
This era of peace did not last long as an entity of unspeakable evil and unparalleled might emerged at the capital of the established country of Ru’in. Lives were lost and souls were devoured by this entity known as Judas, summoned forth by the heretics of the Church of Twilight. Those who were the most powerful of the kingdoms were present - Aslan and his Household Servants; Halcyon, the oni samurai; Alexander, and the Brass Seraphs; and Sepulchre. Their combined might was not enough to repel the invading forces of chaos and destruction. In a last ditch effort, Sepulchre conjured a spell so powerful it required the collective power of the entire capital to seal this entity away. The spell worked in a way, but with an unintended side effect - those who lent their power to seal the demon ARE sealed with it as well. In a twist of fate and irony, the great country of Ru’in and its era of peace fell into ruin and it has once more entered an age of strife between the West and East, with the now corrupted Church of Twilight pulling the strings of malice to destroy them, until eventually the lands were ultimately destroyed.
Centuries have passed and the sealed Judas has somehow managed to extend his malevolent influence amongst the sealed, and has corrupted their minds, but three was able to resist his influence. The seal has lost most of its power and efficacy through the passing of time, and it was time for Judas to attempt to break free. The magic may have waned, but he cannot break free from the seal Sepulchre has placed, not without an appropriate vessel. In this era, the Arch Vorbrundt order has discovered a shipment with the seal. The seal was weak enough for Loki to manipulate and corrupt them, ordering them to search for a suitable host, and so they searched.
The psychokinetic strength and psionic aptitude of Michael Brooklyn Morgan was suitable. As the will of Judas, the traitors of the order have massacred all those not under Judas's influence. Michael was hurt badly, but not too hurt, as they needed him to be in perfect condition for the seal to be transferred to him. The transfer was incomplete when Giselle and a few handful of survivors ambushed and interrupted the ritual. Though incomplete, this was still a victory for him. In order for him to fully reincarnate, he needed his host to fully succumb to his influence. He found him to be somewhat mentally unstable, irate and a believer of brutal justice. Disguised as ‘Sepulchre’s Sigil’, the demon lent him his powers. Judas's background is unknown, as well as its origin. One thing's for sure - in the presence of Judas, all magic is in danger.
Eventually, the elder god C'thulhu joined in and contested the demon's right to use Michael as their catalyst for reincarnation. It was long after that incident that Michael borrowed their powers to perform a powerful psionic technique that sent people to a faraway land in order to usher them to safety. The consequence of the esper's action resulted in the physical manifestation of their influence.
UNIQUE ABILITIES
Dormant Arm of the Devil I Michael’s right hand is cursed with the demon’s influence, perhaps unsightly from the perspective of onlookers unfond of this demonic appearance. Hellish energies flow through this arm to him and rewards him with a boon. He passively gains a 60% increase to his maximum HP, expanding his vitality and making him even more resilient against enemy attacks, as well as a 60% increase to his maximum PSI.Dormant Signs of the Dreamer I Michael’s entire left arm is marked with tattoos and sigils, depicting the features of the eldritch god, C’thulhu, and the story of R’lyeh. At the shoulder is a single eldritch eye marking. None of these are superficial, as these let him endure ordeals and expand his reservoirs of power. He gains a 60% increase to his maximum HP and PSI.
Pendulum Soul I His entire being sways ever so slowly between the Devil and the Eldritch god, as their ongoing battle continues within his mindscape for total dominance on their vessel. Yet the forces they exert within him caused a confluence of power that would surge through him freely, allowing him to take more damage and more reservoirs of power to fuel his psionic abilities. He gains a 60% passive increase to his maximum HP and PSI.
PLOT ABILITY
Aura of the Endbringer I As the bearer of Sepulchre's sigil, with the collective influence of both Judas and C'thulhu, he radiates an aura of fear and nihilism due to the sheer magnitude of their strength and influence over him and his environment. This feeling can only be felt by those who are powerful enough to sense this aura or those sensitive to such auras and psionic signatures. Due to this, he passes off as radiating demonic and godlike energy. There are ways to repress this aura, however, so as to make him more approachable. Regardless of how they react to his presence, player characters, player NPCs, and event owned NPCs can only be subjected to this plot ability with consent from their owners.Death Knell I The incident in Felidae drove him to harness both eldritch and demonic energy. As a result, it won't be long until he passes, his body to be made as a catalyst for one of the sealed entities within him.
The intermingling of these otherworldy forces has allowed him to harness the boons of destruction and annihilation - namely Oblivion Arts and Chthonian Evolution. Oblivion Arts are boons he can use to increase the parameters of his abilities actively through the etching of these eldritch glyphs, effectively making him even more dangerous and allowing him to bring further ruin. His Chthonian Evolution functions similarly that it provides him a bonus, however, they are passive in nature. These otherworldly energies have permanently altered some parts of him not visible to anyone which just makes him even more... enigmatic. These altered parts, however, grant him greater reservoirs of power to tap unto.
