Aleister Crowley

Name: Aleister Crowley.

Age: 17.

Race: Human.

Gender: Male.

Home World: Earth. Living at World of Balance.

Elemental Usage:

Primary: Darkness.
Secondary: Fire.

Class: Dark Knight.

SubClass: Thief.

Fighting Style: He is better fighting at close range, and can't do it at a high distance. Again, because he is blind, he can't aim any kind of distance attack, so he is not confident of hitting the target. Even when he uses his mask, his sight is still not very good. But in close ranged battle, he can hear and feel the wind moving, indicating the possition of his enemy.

Good Qualities: Since he was young he has been physically strong and fast, being able to beat thugs in the streets when they attacked him. A thing that must be said is that he is blind, and thanks to that weakness he has all his other senses in better state than normal humans would have them, to the point of hearing the breathing of others, knowing slight changes of temperature and even knowing where one is cooking his food, even if he is at more than 200 meters of distance. He is also knowledgable about occultism, religion and, in most part, demonology. He has been able to master dark spells to help himself, but he is not too good or too bad at using them.

His most special ability is to use a mask in order to regain the ability to see for the time he has it on. It can only be used when his companion says he can. (Explained in detail on story). This lets him to be more efficient on battle, being able to use his five senses in a more efficient way.

Bad Qualities: He is blind. Even if he can hear and feel things better than anyone, he still lacks sight. He won't be able to see things in front of himself, so he can bump on objects or even get in serious danger if he is not careful enough. Different from other warriors, his weak point is in front, because he is always too worried of what could happen behind him, and he cannot be aware of everything at the same time.

His mask has devil powers residing inside, so wearing it incredibly increases his weakness to holy damage or purified things. He wouldn't be able to enter a church without being hurt.

Affinities: Neutral Good.

Appearance: He is fair skinned and has blond hair. The thing that most draws attention to him is the fact that he wears bandages around his eyes, hidding them from others. The true color of his eyes is grey. His clothing usually consists on a green leather jacket with white marks in the borders, plus a green cape. In his belt he hangs several demonic instruments and accultism tools, alongisde the grip of a sword (and only the grip). Finally, his pants are grey with red snake-shaped lines around it.

History: He was born in a poor family, with a poor and dangerous enviroment. Since birth he has been blind, so his parents, a pair of thieves and criminals, famous for their cruelty to others, never acknowledged him as their son, and prefered to place their attention into his brother. Still, they place bandages in his eyes, convincing him that they were horrible, in fact trying to make him look more scary to others.

Even in blindness, he was taught how to steal and rob by his parents. He soon became famous around the streets thanks to his great physical strength and skills. But he never liked to use them for bad things... Yet he was feared by everyone. Everyday he was attacked by thugs, people that hated his parents, and he always beated them up. He used his free time to roam around the streets.

One day, at the age of 14, he was attacked by five thugs, but managed to defend himself without even leaving a scratch on his skin. Some moments after, he felt how the enviroment around him started to change. He could not explain it, but it was as if he had been transported into a whole different world. A voice called out for him. Aleister felt afraid, but not enough to not ask the name of the person that was there with him.

The person introduced himself as a demon named Jiruub. He had come to him because he was strong and young, good enough to be the human he could posses in order to stay. Though Aleister couldn't really believe it, he was kind of interested by the idea of meeting a real demon.

Jiruub explained that in the demon world there was no king. Thousands of years ago, there was a demon simply called by the title of Demon King, that governed all the other thanks to his power and the fear that his only figure could give. But he could not escape death. Before dying, he placed all his powers in his crown, sent it to the human world, and killed himself. No one ever dared to find the crown, fearing that some kind of curse would fall on them.

But some human days ago, a group of young demons calling themselves the Seven Princes of Hell broke through the barriers of both worlds and went in the search of the Crown. Many demons felt inspired by them and decided to do the same thing, and some others simply couldn't stand having someone more powerful. That was Jiruub's case. He wanted the crown to be the strongest demon, and govern the demonic World as the Demon King did once.

He needed to reside in the body of a human to remain in the human world. But Aleister wasn't convinced, as he didn't know how a blind man could help a demon. Jiruub didn't know that he was blind, and became even more interested about him. He offered a deal: If he traveled with him, then he would make Aleister regain his ability to see.

Of course, Aleister accepted, and Jiruub gave him two things: A white venetian mask, which Jiruub would use to reside in him and to contact him in the outside world, and that would let him see again, only under Jiruub's authorization. And the grip of a sword, whose blade could become any weapon that his new eyes had seen.

That day, his journey in the search of the Demon's King Crown began.

Weapons:

Name: Shape-Shifting Devil Handle (Sword)

Type: Sword.

Element: Darkness.

Description: The weapon itself it's only what seems to be the handle of a sword, made of black metal, yet with no blade to attack with. But when Aleister gives his command, this handle can make the blade take the shape of many different weapons. One of those forms its the common "Sword Form", when the large blade of a two-handed sword appears. The blade is also made of black metal, and it haves no special characteristic or letters written on it. When Aleister decides to, he can return the sword to it's original form (handle).

Effect: The sword itself, besides doing Darkness damage, has no special ability, for the exception of making the blade disappear and appear at will, or change it to other weapons.

Long/Short range: Short Range.

History: Following his character history, after being granted the powers of the demon Jiruub and going in the quest for the Demon King's Crown, the demon Jiruub gave this sword handle as a gift: Each weapon he saw with his "new eyes", after some time of training, would be an avalible transformation for the Devil Handle. This has been, since then, the only weapon that Aleister Crowley has been able to use, in part because he is not willing to accept any other kind of gift, and in part because Jiruub doesn't really want to give him anything else. The sword was the first form he managed to "aquire".

Picture: None.


Name: Shape-Shifting Devil Handle (Axe)

Type: Axe.

Element: Darkness.

Description: The weapon itself it's only what seems to be the handle of a sword, made of black metal, yet with no blade to attack with. Yet Aleister can give his command to make an Axe appear from where the blade should, the Devil Handle becoming the handle of the axe. This axe is made of black metal, and it's pretty much normal. Its length it's from 3 to 4 feet, yet it's heavy weighted, without the ability of moving too much without using a lot of effort, yet the destructive power makes out for it.

Effect: The axe can make Darkness damage to the enemy, and disappear or transform into another weapon in an instant.

Long/Short range: Short Range.

History: Following his character history, after being granted the powers of the demon Jiruub and going in the quest for the Demon King's Crown, the demon Jiruub gave this sword handle as a gift: Each weapon he saw with his "new eyes", after some time of training, would be an avalible transformation for the Devil Handle. This has been, since then, the only weapon that Aleister Crowley has been able to use, in part because he is not willing to accept any other kind of gift, and in part because Jiruub doesn't really want to give him anything else. The axe was the second form he managed to "aquire".

Picture: None.


Name: Shape-Shifting Devil Handle (Crossbow)

Type: Crossbow.

Element: Darkness.

Description: The weapon itself it's only what seems to be the handle of a sword, made of black metal, yet with no blade to attack with. Aleister can make the sword handle become the handle of a crossbow, making the rest of the weapon magically appear from where the sword blade should come out. he crossbow is made of black metal, just like the handle, it's light weighted, and has the usual size of a crossbow (around 1-2 feet, probably).

Effect: Besides doing Darkness damage, the bolts don't need to be manually reloaded: When Aleister uses one of them, he can concentrate on the weapon so another bolt magically appears. Though the fire speed is still much lower than a normal gun, the damage inflicted to the enemy can be several times stronger. He can also make it disappear and change the "blade" to another weapon when he feels like it.

Long/Short range: Long Range.

History: Following his character history, after being granted the powers of the demon Jiruub and going in the quest for the Demon King's Crown, the demon Jiruub gave this sword handle as a gift: Each weapon he saw with his "new eyes", after some time of training, would be an avalible transformation for the Devil Handle. This has been, since then, the only weapon that Aleister Crowley has been able to use, in part because he is not willing to accept any other kind of gift, and in part because Jiruub doesn't really want to give him anything else. The crossbow was the third form he managed to "aquire".

Picture: None.


Spells/Skills:

Ya know . . .

I think this works.

He's got heightened senses, but he's still blind. Kinda like Daredevil.

Uhm . . .

Unless I'm missing something . . . I don't think there's anything objectionable here . . .

Just make sure that mask is written up properly somewhere, probably as an Enchantment.

Approved.

Added:

Shape Shifting Devil Handle (Sword) (Weapon)

Shape Shifting Devil Handle (Axe) (Weapon)

Shape Shifting Devil Handle (Crossbow) (Weapon)

They are basically different forms of the same weapon.

Okay . . . you mention Darkness damage with the weapon-types. How strong is that? Is it magical, which means it's strength is pulling from his Magic talent or is it physical which means that it's pulling from his Martial talent?

He's a Dark Knight, so I'd actually suggest going with the Darkness-Elemental Physical damage, because he'll be stronger physically than magically.

But aside from that it's looking good so far.

Well, it's Darkness physical damage, so it has nothing to do with magic. It's going to hit the same as a normal physical hit, but with the Darkness element included, that doesn't really add any kind of additional damage.

*nod*

I can work with that.

Unless someone sees something that I completely missed in here . . .
