Oh, you know, the usual. Claim a throne, commit genocide, rid the Nine Realms of mewling quims and most importantly...mess with Thor. That always provide unparalleled entertainment.

Bio
Do you think me a fool to shed light on my past, present and future so easily to strangers, you miserable Midgardians? Not even my brother - blundering oaf that he is and more importantly, not blood-related, thank the Allfather for that small mercy - knows everything I have done.
And these few words are all I shall grant to sate your thirst for the unknown. Now if you would excuse me, I have to destroy Jotunheim...again. Because some pests simply REFUSE to surrender and remain dead. Sounds familiar, doesn't it?
In her true form, Belze is easily 2m tall, 70cm of which is the height of her upper human body (from the tip of her head to the abdomen). The human part of her sports unblemished, ash-grey skin, looking as if it's chiselled from stone. Of course, it is mere human flesh. The fingers of both hands end in sharp claws, the same shade of dark grey as her spider half. She has mandibles poking out in between her thin lips. Like all Mygalomorphae, their mandibles point downwards and do not cross each other.
In her glamoured human form, Belze stands at 168cm.
Classification Arachne/Jorogumo These long-living, half-human-looking half-spider race is made up of females only, for they reproduce with unsuspecting males of other species before either killing them off or keeping them in a state of comatose, wrapped in a cocoon of webbing for further use. Most Arachnes have long lifespans. Arachnes are split into various Houses, categorised by habitat/environmental nature and led by the Brood Mother, with a handful of Brood Elders as second-in-command. The Brood Mother is usually followed by two Brood Guards, sometimes more, depending on the size of the House. Each House has their own territory, but it is not uncommon for neighbouring Houses to descend into conflict over territorial disputes, or simply being the case of one House targetting a weaker one. Arachnes share a Brood mentality, where the Brood Mother is the supreme leader, and the most important member of them all. By nature, they are ruthless towards enemies, indifferent towards those they deem neutral and relaxed amongst confirmed allies. Each House has their own unique ability.
Those of the House of Mygalomorphae are a sneaky bunch even if some are rather big, and prefer to observe before striking.
Powers 1) All Arachne have supernatural durability due to their exoskeleton, and can stand both cold and heat (not to the extreme ranges, but higher/lower than most beings) 2) Their regenerative abilities only kick in when they suck the fluids out of a prey 3) Their sting induces paralysis. Of course, stronger beings require a larger dosage, and beings immune to poison are naturally immune to the Arachne's sting 4) They can shoot webs out the rear and from their claws 5) Arachnes can telepathically summon help from normal spiders under the Mygalomorphae category (for example: trapdoor spiders, tarantulas, funnel spiders, etc) - House Mygalomorphae's unique ability: Chameleon-like camouflage
Skills
Positives - Like all spiders, she is an excellent weaver - Extremely stealthy and agile despite her size - Deadly at close combat - Good at ambush and guerrilla tactics - Extremely patient
Negatives - Only one House of Arachnes is able to wield magic. Unfortunately, Mygalomorphaes is not the one. - While she technically can wield a gun or the like for long-ranged combat, her multiple eyes does make it inconvenient and distracting, so she doesn't do long-ranged - Overly-cautious and analytical - Lightning is the one element she dreads facing - When forced to engage in outright combat, she will keep fighting no matter the injuries she sustains until either she dies or her opponent does
Weapons or Artifacts: The only artifact she has is called "Brood Mother's Justice". It takes the form of claws which melded with her fingers and appears to be an original part of her. It has no magical properties other than being extremely durable and sharp. There are only three such artifact, and every Brood Guard of the House of Mygalomorphae bears it as a symbol of their status. Only in death does the artifact detach and is handed over to the new Guard.
Personality Positives - Extremely patient - Able to think on her feet in the heat of battle. Cool under pressure - Works hard to eliminate personal flaws as best she can. Even as a Brood Guard (and mainly because she is one), she firmly believes that there’re still things to learn and skills to polish every day. No one’s perfect, after all.
Negatives - Overly-cautious and analytical - Has a tendency to over-estimate her opponents and under-estimate herself. This doesn’t usually happen, but when faced with someone she knows outclass her, she tends to second-guess her actions. - Has an explosive temper and will become reckless when the Brood Mother is threatened. (Doubly so now, as her new Brood Mother is rather young.)
Biography Hatched from a small cluster of eggs spawned from a Mygalomorphae Arachne and a Manticore, Belze, although the runt of the clutch, was still blessed with a large form thanks to the male's genes. From the moment she could see and weave her own web at the age of six months, the female who gave birth to her - Fyre - took her clutch siblings and herself away from the nest and threw them out into the wide expanse of the Mygalomorphae's territory. Left to fend for themselves, they needed to survive until Fyre came for them again. How long that will be, they had no idea. But that was Arachne tradition. As Fyre was a warrior of the House, her offsprings would be set on the same path, and only those who had the ability to survive as a hatchling would be welcomed into the fold of fighters.
So for days Belze crawled through the territory, more often than not taking advantage of her camoflague ability to sneak away from danger than engage in a fight. She saw the gruesome end one of her siblings suffered by being too arrogant. Mygalomorphae's territory it may be, but that didn't mean the Arachnes chased away every other creatures. Because if they did, what will they eat? As she was now, even a hellhound pup would have no trouble ripping her in two. Less than a year old, Belze was only two feet tall.
Despite the various dangers, she survived by consuming smaller insects and animals until Fyre returned. The clutch of thirteen was now five. Proven that she has what it takes to be a warrior, she and her siblings were shoved to train with the veterans, learning to take advantage of their stealth to ambush and attack, to spin traps and use their multiple eyes effectively. For four whole years this went on, until they were deemed good enough to re-integrate into the House as full-fledged warriors. Before they could actually call themselves Warriors of the House, though, there was one last trial. To bring back the corpse of a creature on par or stronger than themselves. Belze caught within her traps a young witch and didn't hesitate to suck her dry.
From there on, Belze led the fairly exciting life of a warrior, patrolling the territory, training the hatchlings, participating in skirmishes against other Houses and fights between creatures looking to take over Mygalomorphae's territory. Of course, there were the occasional humans who hunted the supernatural, all of varying capabilities. She was lucky enough to survive each encounter. Perhaps it was due to this that she was picked as the next Brood Guard at the age of eighteen human years when one died. This also marked her first time seeing the revered Brood Mother face-to-face.
However, a decade later, tragedy befell the Mygalomorphaes. Skinwalkers launched an attack on her House in a bid to move into the Arachne's territory due to the barren state of their own. During the conflict, the Brood Mother was critically wounded when the Guards were swarmed. Victory for the House was bittersweet that day and went uncelebrated. The Brood Mother's heir was relatively young, and amongst the three appointed Guards, only Belze survived as the previous Mother's Guard. After failing to protect the previous Brood Mother, Belze took it upon herself to be the new Mother's shadow. Unfortunately, in the middle of the third year serving the new Mother, she fell victim to The Order.
At first, she tried resisting, taking advantage of the fact they didn't seem inclined to kill her just yet. However, what she least expected happened. The Knights of the Order managed to pinpoint the exact location of the Brood Mother's nest. Any further resistance from her would result in the death of her charge. Unable to see a way out, she caved. So it was in her thirty-first year that she was blackmailed into working for the Order in exchange of her House's continued exsistence.
@drewccapp Hello there and welcome ^-^ It'll be slow going at first as we slowly integrate our characters but can't wait until the 'introductory arc' is over lol

General Information
Name:Kaine Lee
Gender:Male
Age:20
Appearance: Black, shaggy hair that is left to hang just above his shoulders in an uneven cut, Kaine's dark brown eyes are almost always peering out, half-lidded from below a neatly parted fringe. A sharp nose, thin mouth and sharp chin, his slender frame concealed beneath long-sleeved T-shirts and jeans, the sleeves typically rolled up to his elbows. He stands at the height of 177cm, weighing 69kg. Since he rarely goes out under the sun for long periods of time, his skin is only lightly tanned, contrasting sharply with his dark hair.
Personality: Kaine is mild-mannered and a hard person to offend, waving off insults and jokes in an equally offhanded manner, as long as it is directed at him only, of course. Quick to banter with people he has been acquainted with before or anyone he is comfortable around, he is the sort of man that is easy to befriend, work alongside and open up to as long as he is not being his typical lazy self, which usually rubs some people the wrong way. He is serious when he has an objective to work towards and will do whatever it takes to complete it. He works best when sufficiently motivated and/or under pressure. If not, he is pretty lax and uninitiative until a superior (or his mom) gives him a command.
Biography:Kaine Lee is your stereotypical Asian kid. Born as the youngest of three children, his parents weren't exactly as demanding of him as his older brother and sister. Other than making sure he didn't fail anything and have good enough grades to enter college, they didn't care what he did. With nothing to motivate him, Kaine doesn't bother to put much effort into his studies. As long as he passed, he didn't care. It was his older brother who first introduced him to music and the horror genre through the theme song of Halloween, a 1978 horror movie. He watches horror partly for the music, the suspense and scares and of course, the looks on people's faces as they cringe from the screen.
TV Interests
Favorite Genre: Horror
Favorite Movie/TV Show:Movie = The exorcist, Lord of the Rings trilogy. TV Show = Supernatural, Grimm (can't choose, really.)
Least Favorite Genre:Comedy
Least Favorite Movie/TV Show:Movie = Mean Girls. TV Show = Home and Away
Strengths:1) Has patience in spades 2) Adaptable/Cool under pressure 3) Knows how to play most string instruments (not limited to English orchestra ones)
Weaknesses:1) Frank to a fault 2) Unmotivated for the most part 3) Uncharismatic
Theme Song:Kaine's general playlists contains mostly classical music pieces, his favourite composer being Tchaikovsky. More dramatic music are select pieces from Liu Mingyuan and Toru Takemitsu (a few of them are downright chilling).
Pay-Per-View Conflict
Weapon:None at the moment.
Powers:Cell-sized parasites resides in his blood, kept alive and thriving by absorbing half the nutrients he intakes. If someone else ingests a small amount of his blood, these parasites will feed on the victim from the inside out, leaving the victim a dry husk in the end. It will take time to reach that end, of course.
Techniques:Leech I: Keeping skin contact between his own blood and the uncovered flesh of his victim (anything organic that has flesh and blood, autotrophs excluded) allows the parasites to literally eat at the living flesh. The eaten flesh is then transferred to Kaine to repair any physical ailments. Damage repaired is linked to the amount eaten.
Skills:None at the moment, I assume.
Inventory:Popcorns, a bag of chips, a bottle of sprite, his cellphone with a wallet case (contains a couple of cards and emergency cash), antique analogue wristwatch.

@The Narrator Quick question: Are semi-humanoid creatures allowed? I mean as long as they can take on human form to blend in. Because I was thinking of Arachne/Jorogumo. Not sure if it will fit...?
Do you think me a fool to shed light on my past, present and future so easily to strangers, you miserable Midgardians? Not even my brother - blundering oaf that he is and more importantly, [u]not blood-related[/u], thank the Allfather for that small mercy - knows everything I have done.
And these few words are all I shall grant to sate your thirst for the unknown. Now if you would excuse me, I have to destroy Jotunheim...again. Because some pests simply REFUSE to surrender and remain dead. Sounds familiar, doesn't it?
