Tithe chuckled. "So I see. After I gave them back their humanity, you have undone all my work. Not only are they once more mutants, but now they are aware of it."
He pointed directly at Alex, his finger a glowing white. "YOU HAVE DESTROYED THEIR LIVES!"

(Oops, sorry. Wasn't paying attention.) Raleigh stepped in front of Alex and said politely "Excuse my bestial friend. We are a hoard of pissed abberrants intent on getting our friends back."

"Is that a fact?"
Tithe stepped closer to the group, fearlessly approaching the collective of Aberrants.
"If you did not want my gift, you should not have accepted it. Each of you said you would give anything to be human once more. I did that for you, at great cost to myself."
He reached up with his glowing white hand, and gripped the top of the hood.
"There is a reason I adopted the name Tithe."
With that, he ripped the hood off, carrying most of the robe with it. He was Caucasian and bald, with stone gray eyes and a thick goatee. He wore only pants and boots beneath. The skin of his chest was a mishmash of scales and fur and metal and stone and wood and countless other substances, writhing and constantly changing as though they were living beings straining to escape.
"I know the pain every one of you has suffered, because it became my pain when you were cured."

"Oh, creepy." Raleigh said, wincing. "Yeah, why ARE you blowing these people up?"

He looked over at Alex. "I...do not know what I am. I feel light and darkness within myself, but these powers did not come from Aberrant attacks. I have seen visions, of deities, a female of light and a male of darkness, and heard the names Kestril and Lt'yr associated with them."
He looks back at the busloads of bombers. As his head turns, a faint surgical scar is visible at the lower back part of his head, near where the cerebellum would rest beneath the skull. "I sense the evil within Lt'yr. I know he must be stopped, and I believe I know where he is. I regret the sacrifice these people must make, but it is necessary to weaken him before my attack can destroy the evil that infects us all."
He turns to regard you all again. "I presume you are all here to prevent that. I am sorry, but I can not allow that to happen."

Tithe closed his eyes, and gritted his teeth. "I prayed...I would never...HAVE TO...DO THIS..."
His body grew and widened, twisted and contorted, muscles thickened and bones spread. Soon he took up nearly six times the space he had before, a piecemeal Aberrant, comprised of components from every single Aberrant he had ever restored.
"DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND? THIS HAS TO BE DONE TO SAVE US ALL!"
With that said, he began lashing out at anyone who drew too close, with a countless arsenal of monstrous weaponry.

"'Cause life hates us?" Raleigh said, dodging around. "You know where we have to hit him."

"Ah, kind of. Try to just get the back of his head open so I can dislodge the chippy thingy."
