Character Name: Golak Thul, Lord of Destruction, God of Death, Reaper of Worlds.
Species: Intedimensional Ethereal Being
Species description: Existence isn't a straight line. Reality can be seen as a series of billions upon billions of threads, woven together in a rope, the rope constantly shifting and turning, writhing like a snake. Every line is a being, a life, a soul, a mind. It is the thoughts and actions of a creature that inhabits reality, and all are interwoven. Hundreds of stories and dramas play out in this rope, this collaboration of all life. And as the rope moves forward, still it is woven. Some of the threads end, and new ones are formed from the remains. Sometimes the rope grows, sometimes it shrinks, always moving around. Some would call the path of this rope 'destiny', although that would imply that it was guided by something greater than the actions of those within it. Of course, it might. For those that exist within this world, there is nothing more, and nothing less, and one will never find anything from outside of the rope.
However, there are certain beings that transcend such simple means of thought and existence. To them, the rope is but a stepping stone. For this rope, within which is contained an infintie reality, is woven into a carpet of billions of realities, individual existences with their own destinies and reasons. Some are similar to ours, and some are completely alien, some contain multiple ropes within themselves. Interdimensional Ethereal Beings are not a species, as such, but it is a grouping of these godlike beings, who are free to travel from existence to existence. They form their bodies from the matter and concepts of the worlds they visit, taking a variety of forms, and have many different characteristics. The only thing they share is their multidimensional existence, and their power to rip apart the very laws of each world they visit, the awesome power to rewrite the fabric of reality itself.
Of course, sometimes, they suck at what they do.....
Gender: N/A
Background:
Golak Thul, named as such by the two-dimensional sages of a now long dead world, was an Interdimensional Ethereal Existence that brought destruction and death. When he came to this world, he found it in a state of turmoil. He formed a body from the hate and anger, from the bloodlust and the despair, a form with all the might to crush this world into a tiny ball of ash. He took all these thoughts, and built a physical form for himself, one that would destroy all in it's path. And on his path of rampage, his form grew stronger and stronger, as the fear and despair of those beings who fell before his power reinforced him. He gained many more names, as the many armies that had clashed in this epic struggle named this unstoppable force of death and destruction. The Apocalypse Sage, the Living War, and many others. At the time, it was a sif all life in this reality would be wiped out, and another rope would be ripped from the tapestry.
However, one day, Gulak Thul did something stupid. His body had been destroyed, as the many armies had allied against him. For a normal being, this would be an issue, but a body was but a vessel. Something to hold his existence, a method he used to interact with this reality. And thus, he would create a new vessel. Once more, he looked through the spectrum of human emotions. And he gathered up the most powerful, forging a form ripped straight from the minds of small children at night. And then, there was a single wise mage in the world. And that mage took his daughter, and broadcasted her thoughts at Gulak Thal. Confused by the sudden strong burst of materials, Gulak Thul forged for himself a body from that image, not knowing the trap he had woven himself into.
Forging a body from the girl's mind, Gulak was bound to this world. His existence was reduced, not by the wizard's magic, but by his own power. For, even as Gulak forged a new body from the thoughts sent to it, he found himself immersing himself far deeper than usual. For the girl provided thoughts grounded in reality, an image of a form not only from a physical standpoint, but froma spiritual standpoint. Before Gulak realized what was going on, he had already written himself into a corner. He rewrote the rules of reality, and he trapped himself into this realm, becoming one with his body. For the first time in his eternal existence, the godlike being was stuck. And, to make things worse, the body he had trapped himself in was..... not ideal.
The God of Destruction, the being with the power to rewrite the laws of reality itself, was now a tea pot. A tea pot with unexpected sentience and magical potency, but still, it was a tea pot. And quite an annoyingly arrogant one at that.
Now, long after this momentous and yet long forgotten event in the war that destroyed history, the God of Tea Pots still exists, attempting to reconcile itself with it's new existence as this world's most dangerous tea-making utensil. He got petty revenge by infusing the tea he made with a variety of spells, magic that was still available to him even in this diminutive and humiliating form. It would scald people, or sometimes instill bloodlust. He became known as a magical artifact of debatable use and function, which gave him at least some pride. However, little was he aware that he, the Tea Pot of Destiny, would now become embroiled in the political conflicts that might well control the future of this volatile land.
Abilities:
- Due to his near-infinite lifespan and wide plethora of experience, this Tea Pot has a massive quantity of knowledge on all things arcane, specifically when it comes to the basic fundamentals of the universe, and interdimensional metaphysics (although that particular knowledge isn't useful very often.) He can recognize the characteristics of most forms of magic, and is generally quite knowleadgable.
- Even in his current form, Gulak has a strong hold of magic. He's capable of summoning tea from the nether realms and infuse it with power. This allows him to both heal and harm people, and even fire his tea like some kind of cannon. He can also cast spells that aren't infused into the tea, but these are a lot harder to perform, and are often quite weak.
- Due to his nature as an animated object, Gulak needs no food, no water, and no sleep. He has no blood or vital organs, and he cannot truly die. Even if the tea pot is smashed, his existence will still technically be 'alive', although he would be helpless to perform any magic or acts until the tea pot is restored.
Disadvantages:
- He's a frikking tea pot. He has no arms or legs, and cannot easily transport himself. He requires other people to help him to even get close to his goals, whatever they may be at the moment. He uses magic in order to sense his surroundings in an imitation of human senses, but he has no real physical body as such.
- Due to his interdimensional traveling, some things can be confusing for Gulak. For example, occasionally he'll forget that this universe has gravity, or that life is bound to matter, or that energy is finite, or any such rules that others would consider merely logical.
- He's fairly easy to break. Another disadvantage of his current body, is that he's quite fragile, despite his great magical potential.
Appearance:
Reason for Detainment: hehehehehehehe. That's just cute. Nobody would even DARE arrest Gulak, Tea Pot of DOOM! Besides, he's perfectly contained by dropping him in a pond somewhere, a dungeon really isn't necessary.
