Appearance:
Nebulius is a tall, bluish-grey alien, with a lean body and long lanky arms. His skin looks rather reptilian and semi fish-like, with nobbs lining around his shoulders and at the back of his head. He has chilling-blue eyes that can stare deep into your soul with darker blue pupils. His attire is based of royal armor, which while light and doesn’t protect him much, it does it’s purpose rather decently.
Personality:
From an outside perspective, Nebulius looks and feels impassive, with not a single spark of emotion being hinted. He often looks with a cold gaze and speaks with a monotonous tone. After all, his god, Gilthrantropi, has ordered him to seal away his emotions in order to become balanced with the universe. Nebulius speaks with neutrality, sometimes offering help if he deems it fit according to both the asker’s aura and his own stance in balancing his Kunami energy. He calculates his situations with pure logic to retain order and balance wherever he goes, rarely hesitating to reconsider any action as long as it pleases his God. Many also consider him as heartless and remorseless for one day being an ally and the next being their enemy.
Yet does Nebulius want this personally? Not exactly. Like his God, he wants to see the world to be balanced and stripped clean of chaos. While he’ll go to great measures in achieving this goal, some of the actions he took go against his personal beliefs. He will show no tears externally, but he’ll grieve heavily internally. He cannot talk back to his own God, for if he does, he risks his own demise, throwing away his life, hopes and dreams in the process. He is ultimately trapped and is unable to get out of the hole dug for him. Yet he continues to force himself to please his God, even if it’s against his own beliefs and word.
Powers:
Magic: Nebulius wields what is known as ‘Kunami’, which in short, is what the Quintillians call “divine magic”. This magic stems from a the Supreme Bishop, in their monotheistic religious group of Keltianophy, blessed by their god Gilthrantropi. Those who are blessed by the Supreme Bishop are connected to the Kunami Nexus in which they are provided basic low-level powers like telepathy, teleportation, and a basic elemental manipulation power of their choosing. Overtime they can improve on their Kunami and learn new and more powerful abilities, eventually to the point where it’s said that one can separate their spirit from their body in Astral Projection, allowing them to traverse into Falion (Heaven) or Noqul (Hell). Nebulius, being the Supreme Bishop, has access to a whole variety of abilities (minus Astral Projection; an ability he is trying to learn), some of which are exclusive to his rank alone. These include:
- ( 4 ) Kunami Essence: Nebulius is able to create eldritch-esque energy spheres, beams, and shields based off light (Fali) and darkness (Nol) from his staff. Both forms are capable in hurting enemy opponents if used correctly, but using one type for too long and abusively will cause the user to die. They do more damage depending on the aura the opponent possesses (see Aura Sense). They are to be used equally, the maximum ratio being 60%:40% before risking the user’s life.
- Light Kunami (Fali): Light kunami allows the user to deal more damage to those of “dark aura”, and is used to create primitive life and for healing those in need.
- Dark Kunami (Nol): Dark kunami allows the user to deal more damage to those of “light aura”, and is used to corrupt life and cause utter destruction.
- ( 3 ) Aura Sense: Nebulius has the ability to see the auras of any living being he comes across as black, white, or grey. If the being’s color is more towards white, then it’s considered as a mostly good character. If the color is more towards black, then it’s considered as a mostly evil character. If the color is grey, than it is determined that the character is balanced in both sins and virtues.
- ( 3 ) Levitation: Nebulius is temporarily able to levitate off the ground up to several meters.
- ( 3 ) Passive Teleportation: Nebulius is able to teleport within a distance of 20 meters. He cannot use this this ability while in combat, hence the name “Passive Teleportation”.
- ( 4 ) Telepathy: Nebulius is able to contact individuals telepathically as long as they are within his sight of vision.
- ( 4 ) Psychic Shield: Due to already having a reasonably strong telepathy skills, it also allows Nebulius to be immune to almost any telepathic attack or ability used against him.
Weakness:
Constant Balance: Also known as the “Fali-Nol Oath” (literally meaning “Light And Dark Oath”), it restricts the abuse of either Kunami energy to be abused or be prefered over another, forcing the user to balance out both energies. If he uses one energy for too long, the user will die and sent straight to Falion or Nogul, depending on which power he used the most. There the user’s soul will be tortured for eternity, unable to escape the clutches. It’s fine to slightly use one power over the other for a period of time, but it must be balanced by an equally powerful action based off the user’s initial action. Say if the user used Fali to save a person, it must balance it out by using Nol to kill someone. The maximum ratio the user can endure is 60%:40% and can be sustained for a week before starting to wither away. The only way for the user to bypass this risk is to be on a planet that is “balanced” or a place that artificially stimulates this effect.
Equipment:
Staff Of Quintessius: A staff handed down from generation to generation, the Staff serves as the power to communicate with God and to create the light and dark powers. One who it worthy of the Staff is able to use it, while those not worthy are left with a worthless, unbreakable stick.
History:
Nebulius Lumvari Suprema is a Quintillian alien, who originated from the Quintalian Star System, from the planet Quintilla. His planet is rich with precious resources and minerals, allowing his race to create massive cities that can be physically seen from space. They are a highly religious and technologically-advanced species, worshipping their God, Gilthrantropi, in what they call Keltianophy. They made massive monuments and huge churches to worship him, in which they are granted supernatural powers for their devotion. To represent his presence in the physical world, a Supreme High-Bishop is chosen by him to be his “prophet”. The High-Bishop is then presented with the Staff of Quintessius, a staff that once belonged to Gilthrantropi himself, now used to communicate with him and to control the powers of both Fali and Nol, their version of Light and Dark in that order. With great power, comes great responsibility, as they are responsible in keeping their powers balanced and in order. One power must never be favored for a long period of time, or else the Bishop will die and his soul be tortured for eternity in either Falion or Nogul, Heaven or Hell, depending on which power they prefered. When that leader falls, a new one is almost chosen immediately to replace it.
Nebulius is the thirteenth Prophet to take the helm as Supreme High-Bishop, having ruled for 839 solar cycles as of this date. For years has his people experienced peace, justice, and order throughout the planet. Everything was balanced and just. Then one day, the voice of Gilthrantropi spoke to him. He said that while this planet has achieved total balance, it wasn’t enough. The entire Universe itself must be balanced in order to achieve absolute harmony and to unify the world together. But how, one may ask, how can they just go around the universe and simply balance out a star system or even a galaxy one by one? According to God, there’s a much simpler way. Near the center of the universe, legends have told of a giant palace. A palace that contains a device so powerful, it can warp time and the fabric of reality itself and grant the user the ability to fulfill its greatest wishes. This device is known as “The Gorge”. If Nebulius can get to the device, he can fulfill his destiny and bring complete balance to the entire universe, where eternal peace will be forever kept without the presence of evil.
The Bishop accepted that mission.
A week later there was a massive farewell party to the beloved Nebulius. He said goodbye to his family, friends, and those who followed in his footsteps. Boarding a giant ship, he sets out on an odyssey that’s expected to take several years to complete. As the years went by, he slowly got closer and closer to the center of the Universe. However, just before he could make the last hyperspace jump into the Center system, a rogue unidentified object collided with the ship, setting it off course and hyperspaced into an unknown system, far, far away from the center of the universe.
When Nebulius came out of hyperspace, his ship crash-landed in a nearby planet, leaving him stranded and lost. Ghilthantropi was not pleased that he was taken off course and, despite it not being his fault, cursed Ghilthantropi with the “Fali-Nol Oath”, in which the user must keep both sides of his Kunami in check or he dies and gets tortured for eternity. While Nebulius initially had a similar oath back on Quintilla, it wasn’t as strict as compared to the curse. If he won’t be able to issue balance and order upon the entire Universe through “The Gorge”, then he might as well do it the old fashioned way. Spreading balance between worlds, or “cleansing them” as it’s said.
Now Nebulius wanders the universe in an attempt to somehow get to the Center and be broken free of this hideous curse. His life is now literally in the balance. Will he find a way to reach The Gorge? Or will he be cursed for eternity?
