|Occupation|Operates a small international mercenary force, though he rarely participates in their "Activities" he mostly just organizes and plans for the semi-military unit, exploiting his vast strategic and tactical knowledge. Often, he uses this unit to his own whims, destroying things he deems oppressive and corrupt. In his long existence after the fall of the Aztecs, he has made a point of visiting as many great battles he could reach, though recently there's been a lull.
|Godly Appearance|
Associated equipment is the generic Aztec battle armor, generally of leather. It is not enchanted in any way as described by the legends, but Huit has poured a bit of his essence into it, making it indestructible. the Aztec Obsidian blade, the Macuahuitl, is a symbol of all the Aztecs, but Huit the most. His own blade can burn with the heat of the sun (not really, but really hot).
|Earthly Appearance|As Hewitt or Hugh, he generally appears as a 6' 1", incredibly well-built fortress of a man. Muscles ripple over his entire body, the muscles of somebody trained in hand to hand combat. He has dull, brown eyes, almost red in their tint. A short, but not buzz-cut mop of dark brown hair covers his head. A mouth that rests as a hard line of determination can break out into a wide, toothy smile or, more often, a vicious, menacing snarl. His body is covered in scars, mainly on his chest and back, though a long one traces along his right arm.
|Personality|Huit (i'll use that for short) was originally a vicious, determined, and vengeful lord. He demanded sacrifice and honor from his people, in order to keep their world alive. His greatest focus was always being the best and strongest, and he fueled anger and hatred into this purpose. He had few friends among the Aztec pantheon, and as time has progressed, he has gotten most of them killed, either by accident, on purpose, or by his own hand. But, now that he has walked among mankind for over 500 years, he has learned to treat the humans with more respect. He has built a hatred of gods and people who behave like he used to, dominating an innocent population and forcing them to do as their leader pleases. He despises oppression, and yearns for the might to destroy it again. He has long desired for his powers to return in order to seek vengance on those who have wronged the world. He has a great interest in military history, and has enjoyed visiting great battles of history, though he often puts himself in harms way to accomplish something, either a better vantage point, or to help one side or the other. This has manifested into a full, violently reckless streak.
When interacting with others, especially gods, he treats them depending on the history he knows of them. If he remembers them as domineering, rude, heartless, or otherwise negatively traited (with the exception of violent, he loves violent), he treats them badly, and takes little pleasure in interacting with them. If they were good, or at least honorable people, he behaves much more like the royalty he technically is, and gives them much more leeway and kindness. Huit isn't exactly the best at making friends given his arrogance, but those he makes are drawn to him via his vibrant and exciting personality.
|Family|-Mother, Coatlicue, location unknown
-400 Brothers, the Centzonuitznaua, scattered as the stars (AKA. Dead, dead, and extra dead, with pickles on the side)
-Sister, Coyolxauhqui, the Moon, He thinks she's in Southeast Asia somewhere.
Huit fought and defeated his sisters and brothers to defend his mother, and in the times of old he was said to be chasing his sister, the moon, as the sun across the sky.
-Pet Dog/Serpent, Toxcatl (also the name of the festival day for Huit), a gift from his friend, Quetzalcoatl (the feathered serpent, a fellow Aztec god.). Toxcatl is part Guatemalan Bull Terrier (
Reference), part Boa Constrictor Imperator (
Reference)(He has a snake's tail, but that's it., Huit uses his limited power over light to hide the tail from mortals.)

|History|Originally the god of war, sacrifice, and the ever-mighty sun, Huit was...not happy, when the gods agreed to surrender their powers. He sent the Aztecs to destroy their neighbors in a fit of rage. He then served as a shadowy puppet master of the Aztecs until the Spanish came, a group which he came to despise for destroying his people. Since, he journeyed throughout the world, finding new things and manipulating conflict. Huit was responsible for the failure of the Spanish Armada, the first freeing of Napoleon, and he had a small hand in igniting the Communist revolution (Which he came to regret, as he saw the Oppression it incurred). Recently, he has settled down some, and only interferes when he is exceptionally bored. He has also developed a relationship with Persephone, with the pair now living together.
|Opinion on Mortals|Huit feels compelled to defend the innocent humankind from the Oppression of Gods or Men who believe they are Gods. And yet, he believes himself a greater being, despite their similarities. He feels humans are more like children or puppies to his full-grown adult, and he treats them as such, though he tries not to do it to their face.
|Theme Song|R U Mine? – Arctic Monkeys”I go crazy 'cause here isn't where I wanna be
And satisfaction feels like a distant memory
And I can't help myself,
All I wanna hear her say is "Are you mine?"” |Favorite Myth|Promethus and the gift of Fire
|Mortal Skills/Abilities|Has learned a vast majority of combat skills, given his war-relation. Always has a perfect tan. Is notoriously difficult to burn.Has learned to play electric guitar, though he admits he isn't excellent. Master strategist/tactician, and can memorize nearly any map. Incredibly athletic, does ridiculous workouts whenever he can. Speed Reader. Excellent Chef.
|Immortal Skills/Abilities|As Lord of the Sun, Huit's will travels along it's rays. At his height, he could travel anywhere in the world the sun currently shined, at the speed of light, which for all intents and purposes was instantly, though for now, he can only jump a few meters.
Likewise, as God of War, Huit is incredibly talented in combat, the more his power waxes, the more impossible to hit - and the harder he will hit back - he will become.
Unfortunatley, as the God of Sacrifice, Huit's strength and energy are increased when a person is sacrified, or makes a great sacrifice near him (similar to a regular person eating a good healthy meal, this boost will increase as his power does.) The range of the sacrificial strengthening will increase as his power does.
