He goes well with others as long as they prove useful and he will betray anyone if the profit gained surpasses the consequences, if there are any. [/center] [b]History[/b] [list] [*]The first thing he remembers is completing the infernal pact with a demon of greed. How high did the demon rank? He didn't know and only a fool would believe what a demon told them. [*]Even before the pact he had 1 ability, shadow powers, which were seemingly lost, only his shadow remaining which he can merge with. He feels more complete than ever while in this state, giving the impression like his body is borrowed and he finaly achieved his true form. [*] His life until now has been experiencing the best life has to offer, be it drinks, food, properties, women and many other delicacies. And he also slaughtered a whole Fae clan. The demon insisted on doing it, it wasn't him, although it technically WAS him doing all the killing but that's beside the point. [*]Killing and replacing people has been his method of cheating through life. And he could as well be winning the race because he is living it to the max. [*]After an uncountable number of things he has acquired, he felt the need for a safe so what better place then the Royal Treasury? He could get in and leave like he owned the place and that could very well be true if it wasn't for the drawbacks that came with it. He liked to move a lot you see, and a kingdom without a king is nothing but a ..dom. [/list] [b]Equipment[/b] [list] [*]Soul Dagger - A weightless dagger that can only be welded by the owner. Kinda like a soul security lock that only works with the right soul. It doesn't derive strength from the physical power but from the purity of the soul. Since he and his Shadow aren't even one, add being as impure as they come and the dagger will barely match a normal attack. [*]Clock of Duality - A pocket watch with 2 clocks inside. One shows the normal time for the area where he currently is, the other is always one hour ahead. Once he makes a decision, if the clock that is one hour ahead stops, it means that that decision will lead to his direct death if it is within the hour, the exact time of it happening shown by the still hands. It only works if that is the last decision which leads to his death, which has to happen within the hour for the clock to show. [*]Ring of the Lord - A ring which allows him to use force powers.He cannot biff himself directly by using it. After every use it needs to recharge, the time depending on how much force power was used. [*]Coin of Finding - He thinks of something, flips the golden coin and if the thing he thought of really exists, an image of it will be carved on the front which will stay blank otherwise. The back side always being the same, with 2 more coins being portrayed in it. He then lets the coin fall into the ground where the coin moves towards the direction of the desired thing for 3 meters and then disappears, reappearing in his hand blank again. The walking stick is also a hidden sword. The sword is coated with a potent paralyses poison which takes effect within seconds. [*][url=http://www.pasottiombrelli.com/ProductImages/1461_2494_0.jpg]The Philosopher's Stone[/url] - A stone that lets him create anything he desires out of thin air. But he has yet to master even creating small knifes. Basically the only think he can create are small knifes which disappear after 10 seconds. The things are created, possessing no force or initial speed whatsoever and can only be summoned close to his person, in his hands. [/list] [b]Skills and Spells[/b] [list] [*] Doesn't need to sleep, eat or drink, though he does the last 2 for special occasions when the food or drink is particularly good and also to blend in, in some cases. He enters a form of sleeping when he becomes One with the Shadow. [*]One with the Shadow - He enters a sort of meditative trance which allows his consciousness to skip his body and merge with the shadow. His body becomes dormant during this phase which also makes him the most vulnerable as if the body is destroyed, the shadow also ceases to exist in this world. [*]Half Shadow - The Shadow being a part of him, also has some of his power within it and once it becomes dormant, the power he has is halved. The shadow, while merged with it, also becomes dormant if it suddenly becomes completely dark or there is a bright enough flash of light to extinguish all shadows hence blocking all ways of escape. [*]Shapeshifter - One of the powers he got once signing the contract. He can morph to any humanoid creature, inheriting it's full abilities and memories, the latter is achieved by killing the humanoid he wants to morph to. He can also morph only parts of his body while the rest is something else. [*]Hell Fire - Ethereal flames start burning the target's soul. They take on the color of the soul while burning, the color varies depending on many factors like the purity etc. As soon as he uses this power, his body turns to ash and he and his Shadow cease to exist in this world. [/list] [b]Living Shadow[/b] [list] [*]His Shadow seems to have a will of its own. Many times living the body without permission and other times staying dormant when its needed. What the Shadow experiences, knows, he knows and vice versa. The Shadow is a part of him and as so it actively tries to keep him out of danger, that being done either by scouting ahead, affecting the shadow of projectiles and objects so they miss, affecting the shadow of enemies to make them stop for a split second, controlling parts of the body of unaware people whose muscles aren't that active at the moment and, in rare cases even taking complete control of his body to achieve impossible feats though it goes dormant for some time after that, depending on how much it boosted him. It can also dim or extinguish small light sources and momentarily reduce the vision range over a dark area by making it darker. [*]One with the Shadow - After merging with the Shadow he gains all of it's abilities but enhanced. He can influence the physical world by controlling the shadows of objects and live creatures, including humans, with force equal to lifting 200kg. As a basis he has instantaneous movement by moving from shadow to shadow but can't stray too far from the body or he will get teleported back to it, activating the body again while the Shadow becomes dormant.
