[Aku Kami Kurayami]

Name: Conrad Turser
Aliases/ Nicknames: Boss, the Serpent of Death
Age: Looks to be in his early 30's, though he is somewhere around 280.
Height: 6'4”
Weight: 242 lbs
Personality: Conrad is the calm and cool gangster. He intimidates others by being calm even in times where most would be crumbling, or aggravates them by remaining calm when others are upset. He values fearlessness over most any other trait, commonly forcing others to take care of Fang in his Released state, informing them of his venom, but never telling them that he'll never bite unless ordered. In business and combat, he can become quite cunning, attacking the most vital parts till he succeeds. Once in a while, Fang's blood lust will get to him when the opponent pushes him far enough, but that ends up only fueling him to work harder.
Theme Song(s):
Normal – Liquor Bar & Drunkard, Daisuke Ishiwatari(GGXX)
Excited/Angry – If You Want Blood(You Got it), AC/DC
Physical Description: Conrad is tall, about 6'4”, Caucasian, with medium length brown hair. His eyes are white and change in size depending on his mood. When he's calm, they are a normal size, but when he's excited or aggravated, his pupils with thin into vertical slits, much like a snake and are known to shine in darkness. For his muscle structure, he weighs in at about 242 lbs and is very muscular, more so in the arms than in the legs. On his head he has a maroon bandanna around his hair and also wears a pair of dark, rectangle sunglasses. For his attire, he tends to wear a black sleeveless shirt, black knuckle gloves, black jeans and black boots. Also along with this is sometimes a brown jacket. A tattoo of a red snake curves around his right arm, it's head on the back of his hand, it's fanged mouth on his palm, though it is covered by his glove.
When Conrad needs to dress a little more formal, he wears a black and red button up shirt, suit jacket, black pants, black shoes, black gloves, and removes the bandanna, though he keeps the sun glasses. He will also slick his hair back.

Doll: Fang is a snake, a Gaboon viper to be precise. He is cold and ruthless, wanting nothing more than bloodshed. He feeds off of the darker side of Conrad's personality.
Sealed: Fang
In it's sealed form, Fang takes the form of a combat knife, one of the most useful tools in combat. When he is like this, Conrad will refer to Fang as “my fang.” In this form, it allowed Conrad to morph his spirit energy somewhat freely, allowing him to do some simple techniques that Fang has taught him.
Sealed Abilities:
Serpent Strike – With a quick burst of spirit energy, his arm is extended two to three times it length, possibly four times, though damage is common when extended this far, then brought back in a whip like fashion. Commonly used to punch or slap the target, though it's possible to grab and pull the target if they are within the two times range. If they are grabbed, then can be brought back or possibly thrown, being let go part way through the receding of the arm.
Cheap Shot – With a quick burst of spirit energy through his feet, Conrad kicks up a cloud of sand, even if he is in an area where there normally wouldn't be any. This creates a cloud the will last for a short time, no more than 30 sec, but allows him enough time to get move without being seen.
Venom – This is a passive ability. In the sealed/weapon form, Fang is laced with a very light form of his venom. If cut, the wounded will begin to loose their sense of balance. It will eventually fade, but the more they are cut, the worse it gets. It also causes severe pain in the cut region and lowers the rate of coagulation, taking about twice as long for the wound to seal than normal.
Released: In his released form, Fang shows his true form. In this form, Conrad's spirit energy pool gets larger and some attacks will be edged with venom. Fang with also be able to creep around and strike. Though he may be big, he can strike extremely fast and can take some hits. Conrad rarely fights in this form, mainly using it as a form of intimidation with this large snake draped over his body.
Released Abilities:
In this form, he has both Serpent Strike and Cheap shot. But because he has more energy at his disposal, he can hit harder with Serpent Strike, and his Clouds from Cheap Shot will last up to 45 sec.
Envenom – Since Fang isn't in the form of a weapon, Fang has given him the ability to emulate his bite. Pumping spirit energy into his hand, Conrad forms claws over his hand that are laced with a stronger form of Fang's venom. Loss of balance will set in much quicker and gets worse faster. The venom also causes severe pain, and their victim's blood becomes incoagulable. The worst part is that both this technique and Fang wield this venom, though Fang's variant seems to cause more pain. Conrad will either use this as a slashing, stabbing, or sometimes as a grab attack.
Coil Strike – This is a simple move where Conrad wraps energy around his arm then punches, forming a spiral/spring shape of energy that extends some two feet from his arm and has a two foot diameter at his elbow, slowly receding to a point at the end. He tends to use this as a counter punch as it is close and pushes the target back.
Guillotine – This is a technique which combines Envenom with some motion. Conrad jumps in an arc to either land on his opponent from the air or catch them in the air, though the distance he can jump is no more than six meters. Beginning his jump, he uses Envenom in an upper cut to catch them if they are near, then brings his hand back in front and in a downward motion to catch them in the air or on his decent. Grabbing them by the neck, he runs them along the ground while pushing them into it. After that, he'll toss them away, normally in the direction they were moving if he thinks that they survived, or to the side if he thinks they didn't. While holding on, he constantly injects venom, causing many problems to his victim's internal organs.
Merged: *Not Achieved* In their merged form, Conrad's arms get covered in what looks like black and white scaly armor. Out of his fingers grow fang like claws which secrete venom and a large backwards pointing fang extends up and back out of his shoulder. In this form, he has increased power and speed, along with an increased energy pool.
Merged Abilities
When merged, he still can use the abilities Serpent Strike, Cheap Shot, Envenom, Coil Strike, and Guillotine, though all are stronger, and his Cheap Shot clouds last for one min and 15 sec.
Venom – In this stage, his venom is much more potent than before. Loss of balance sets in quickly and their blood become incoagulable. Along with this, the victim begins to suffer convulsions and possibly vomit blood. Death from internal bleeding is likely after being stricken twice and more or less assured after five or six strikes.

Special Accessories: Conrad seems to always have a generous amount of butterfly knives on him at any time. The majority of the ones he'll have will be used as throwing knives. Two of the butterfly knives, which he will always have on him, he will use as combat knives. These knives will be used when he wants to toy with someone or if he is fighting with Fang in his released form.

Skills: Conrad has gained some interesting skills with butterfly knives over the years, and will sometimes be seen playing with one, doing different tricks. He also has very good aim, easily going from a trick to throwing one fairly accurately. In business, he has been known to be fairly ruthless and makes deals at the perfect times to get the best deals. In combat, he strikes with burst of speed and can be very ruthless. Overpowering his opponent is his style of combat, pressing them quick and hard.

Biography/History: Conrad was born in late 1720's Europe, it's been so long that he really doesn't remember where it was. He grew up like a normal child on a farm until he reached about 20. This is when he his abilities as a Bount began to sink in. Normal food no longer pleased him, he stopped aging, the village considered him a monster. His family kept him, and his lover did as well, but that was to soon change. Since he didn't know how he was supposed to feed, he killed his lover and consumed her soul on accident. Rather than stricken with grief, he found it pleasing that he didn't feel hungry any more and left the village. For years he lived in the wilderness, feasting on the souls of animals and the occasional lost hiker. After consuming enough living souls to age ten years, he discovered that the souls of those who passed would still sustain him without aging him, so he become more careful.
Around the 19th century, he returned to civilization, using his name and moving into a house. Since organized crime was beginning to take rise and most any other job annoyed him, he joined the local mob as a henchman. Over the years, he rose in rank till he became the boss's personal guard. Eventually, the boss caught on that Conrad was looking over his shoulder to learn the tricks of the trade, and that he never seemed to age. Once the boss confronted him, Conrad killed him and took his place.
Since then, the Viper House mob was formed. Over the years they have turned into one of the most feared mobs that partake in drug trafficking, money laundering, illegal arms dealing, and even more. Also, Conrad has kept his 'family' as sole head of the mob throughout the years. He'd take a wife as a lover, and when she would get 'pregnant', she'd have an 'accident' at childbirth, bearing a son to be called Jr. He'd have his boss persona take a back seat and act as his young son wanting to please his father to then take his place and start the cycle all over again. No one has caught on, as anyone who would catch that they are the same person would be dead or shrug it off as a family resemblance by now.
As of right now, Conrad Turser V has taken head of his father's business and relocated to their Japanese branch to overlook their Yakuza group, Hebishi, the Death Snakes.
