His eyes are black where the whites would be, and his pupils glow a dark glowing purple. His ears pointed and bat like; very good at sensing the tiniest of sounds. His third eye remains closed, it is a by product of his essence becoming further tainted by his usage of void. when it is open it shines a bright purple hue, It allows him to see using the void. Allowing a 360 degree vision limited by the normal strength of his eyes. This is also how he awakens his psionic powers. He is stronger than a normal void elf due to his training with monks.

It being made of ebon weave allows protection wile still allowing him to move freely as it becomes incorporeal when nessicary, to avoid tripping him or slowing in anyway.
Through their arcane and occult studies, some may stumble upon a copy of an ancient leather-bound books, older than anyone can remember. Zetarus was lead to a powerful warlock whom possessed such a book by the monks. This is a Book of Void, a tome containing eldritch texts pertaining to things like the Far Realms, endless layers of the abyss, and the Void between planes. Kept in his personal collection of magic books, Zetarus Through this research, a one becomes a voidwalker, a scholar dedicated to unlocking the secrets of nothingness. After gazing upon the ancient text Zetarus was granted further void augmentation:
One with the void: This is a passive power tied to his existence upon reading the book. It makes him immune to the effects of reality warping. As Zetarus is so entangled in the voids grasp that he exists in the same way void does. Meaning he is not bound to existence and so altering the laws or state of it has no effect him him.
True Voidsight: the book gifted him an ocular augment. Making it unlikely to be flanked, and is constantly under the effect of true seeing out to 60ft. This means that he has a 360 degree field of vision by running his sence of sight through the void. This is done through his 3rd eye.
The void's prayer:
The book granted him knowledge of the voids primeval prayer. If recited properly, without interruptions of any kind. A magic sigil spreads from Zetarus being out to 60 feet. His soul is taken from. His body and melded with the void temporarily. In this zone he can call the tendrils of the void in any way, shape, size or length that he wishes. This effect can only last 10 seconds, once used he himself can't return until the connection fades. If he is killed in this state his soul is left to the void, where he must wait to be reincarnated. The area that he uses becomes forever tainted with the void empathy. The tendrils when they make contact attempt to pull things into the void to be erased from all existence. The prayers verbal activation must come from words of power. After its completion Zetarus enters a trance where movement of any kind is impossible and he is completely incoherent. He will randomly use void speech which will cause migraines for non void creatures who hear it. He remains this way for 24 hrs. If the trance is healed or broken by magic he will be exhausted to the point that any type of combat would be impossible. The prayer goes as so:
" Seek not heros, seek no kings, seek not gods with haven to bring. Seek no power, feel no fear. Ponder not why I am here, worry not and seek no favor. I am the one, thy king and maker. Mercy, from my foe, I ask for none, war has spread, nowhere to run. Forgive me for my wrongs, I HAVE JUST BEGUN! "
(Abilities, Racials & Powers)
Most elves have some obscure distant relation to fey, but planarblood elves stem their origins from elemental entities of the inner and outer planes. As gensai are to humans, planarblood elves are to elvenkind, with the power of the planes with them. There is a planarblood elf for every plane. Racially, void elves come equipped with minds "Hollow of thought", meaning that they are immune to psionic bombardment from unwanted forces. It doesn't mean that they don't think. They have bodies that need not breath or nutrient to survive. More disturbingly, they can speak without an atmosphere, though magic effects such as verbal silence still function as normal. Also he is immune to pressure effects, due to the fact that his species of elf lives in deep space.
A void elf’s presence is much more minuscule than most beings. This means its actions be it magical or physical are not easily detected by most senses. His essence is not of the material plane, and because of such it is simply ignored by novice or mid-level divination attempts, intended on detecting him through general means. Zeta can see twice as far as a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and similar conditions of poor illumination. He retains the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions as a perk from his lineage. He has an Immunity to sleep spells and effects, and racial defense against charms. He being a psychic has a unique talent. He can not only feel the emotions of others in a 30 foot span, he feeds off of certain ones. Feelings of lust, or love, hate, anger, pain and sadness are all things he can use to feed his psionic powers. His eleven half was that of the Dark elf. A race of tainted elf that feeds off of blood. He favors his void side more, and so his dark elf traits and abilities are underdeveloped. But he dose have the capacity to drink the blood of creatures as nourishment and can recover from fatigue and minor wounds that way. Drinking also stabilized him from mortal wounds. His teeth are sharp as if he was actually a vampire.
Being related to an elemental of the void, Zeta was born with a deep connection to it. This allows him to conjure and manipulate psionic powers in various ways. As his link is of a psychic nature, his mental energy allows him to kinetically mold his will into a dangerous weapon. He is obsessed with knowledge. After years of studying under the tutelage of monks who practice cosmic aphairesis. He came to understand himself better. As he did so he started to use and weave his psionic and arcane powers. After some time he completely devoted himself to its use and understanding. He learned that through silent meditation and countless hours of deep comprehension, monks are able to glimpse through the veil of dimensions. Whatever he saw has changed him forever. This gave him the ability to use the void to erase the supernatural connections others use to interact with existence around them. To do so one must be struck by him wile he has called on this technique. When activated he is granted power over vibration, all things resonate at a specific frequency to exists as they do. Zeta can produce and manipulate vibrations to match and then disperse the vibrations in a target. Then through his 3rd eye he can see the five aggregates. They appear as visible energies whirling from any sentient being, or inanimate object. As they are visible to him they then become target able by his ability. Though colorless he can discern them by the feeling he gets from them using his empathy. The aggregates and what they govern are:
"form or mater: erasing the body or "material form" of a being or any existence. The laws of the universe state that rupa or quintessence of any person, sentient being or object to be composed of four basic elements or forces: earth (solidity), water (cohesion), fire (heat) and wind (motion). When struck the complex weave of there connection to the elemental planes that makes all matter is undone. Rendering them devoid of the gifts of the elements. He is even able to single out 1 element in an object or person. The effect being what ever happens when the subject in question is no longer in tune with the element in question. A singular bolt of purple crackling lightning. Though he can move about he can't use any of his psionics until after its fired.
"sensation" or "feeling" all experiences are either pleasant, unpleasant or neutral. When this aggregate is damaged it sends a wave of pain through the body removing the neutral and pleasant from the being. Leaving nothing but pain. This effect lasts 3 seconds and causes the target to feel as if they are on fire.
"perception": sensory and mental process that registers, recognizes and labels (for instance, the shape of a tree, color green, or the emotion of fear). When damagd this causes a loss of the sensory system. One if the 5 basic senses are lost. This is the only move in this set that requires him to fire a beam from his eye. Its 2 inches wide and can reach out as far as he can see, it travels at 20 feet per second. Afterwords his 3rd eye closes for 5 seconds.
"mental formations": Constructing activities, conditioned things, volition, they are all karmic activities; all types of mental imprints and conditioning triggered by an object. This aggregate control's any process that makes a person initiate action or act. When damaged the target is unable to think of motion, and is there for rendered unable to move for 3 seconds.
"consciousness" : "discrimination" or "discernment". Awareness of an object and discrimination of its components and aspects. Cognizance, and that which discerns. Is commanded by the brain, through a series of rapidly changing interconnected discrete acts of cognizance. Its the base that supports all experience. When this aggregate is damaged one loses the ability to properly discern time and space. Causing reality to seem to litteraly melt around them. They are haunted by there personal demons trapped in there own minds. This insanity is temporary. If struck once its 3 seconds, each successful hit doubles its duration. Its only affective on those who know true happiness and live a life of peace.
By comprehending the void, the laws of physics are broken. This is the power of the void. The power of the void is a useful tool in the right hands, but if misused or unprepared can warp one's body, one's mind, and even one's soul. By comprehending what he had seen, He gained the ability to enter a state of harmony with the void where his elemental side is empowered making him mildly resistant to all damage types except: bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing. In this state he is completely immune to any form or supernatural power. He becomes a living dead zone out to 30 feet. His presence silences and binds all supernatural abilities, be it racial or other wise, besides his racial traits. Not even sparing his own magic from the effect. Once active he is unable to end the assimilation into the void on his own. His physical status remains unchanged meaning he's no stronger than he was prior to harmonizing. Any magic items in the zone are also nullified until the form has rescinded. He can only hold this state for 30 seconds, and cant use it again until 60 seconds has past. When active his body becomes flooded with void causing it to spill from his body, enveloping his form in a cloak of nothingness as shown above.
Primeval Presence: Throughout his time serving the void he has earned its favor as one of its devoted followers. Zetarus was granted an ability tied directly to his very being. Through understanding the true nature of what those see as evil. The cosmos has marked him with an essence of void. He was gifted the ability to naturally rebuke all Dark Arts. This means he is in no way affected by any abilities from outside sources that come from a: Dark, negative, evil, demonic, unholy, ECT nature nor there effects or products. Lest he want to, however void related abilities are able to affect him as nothing is immune to void. Also making it so things of a holy nature have no sway over him. Though killable by holy or positive means Zetarus can not be instantly destroyed by them. It would be as if fighting fire with fire. So though not immune to positive energy it has no advantage against him.
Cosmic Atunement:
Allowing ones mind and soul to harmonize with the cosmos and the heavenly bodies. Those who achieve this can feel the movements and shifts of the moon, sun, and stars. They feel the moving of the tides of the sea and the changing of the seasons. Zeta sought out these casters in order to understand his extra terrestrial origins. As Void elf live in deep space. He learned to harmonize himself with the infinite void of space, granting him cosmic augmentation. This ability is referred to as the soul of the Cosmic Cycle- the monks taught him to master ancient abilities they had discovered involving void: The phase of the void, and The empty Void.
Phase of the Void- Halves the movement speed of all enemies within 30 feet, You also gain the ability to cast the spell Empty Void. Zetarus being a psionist is not well versed in the arcane in terms of actualy using it. Though well read upon zetarus is both a Psionist and an Arcaneist. That being said he comes from a very magical lineage being part Dark elf, and Void elemental. The usage of magic is possible for him. Durring the phase of the void pebbles or other small objects that are nearby begin to rotate around him as he achieves gravitational pull. Also, he exerts a heavy pressure on the area near him which hinders those who hope to oppose him.
Empty Void- A 30 foot zone centered on himself, any enemies within the effected area are inflicted with 3000 ponds of pressure. Prolonged exposure can cause death in seconds, broken bones near instantly if the target is brittle or frail, and full body pain indefinitely, as the target is crushed.
