About
Greetings. The name is Demon. Demon Larkham. Although I go by many other names, that is all that I shall allow you to call me, although a variation of the world "Demon", "Larkham", or a combination is acceptable as well. Chances are, you will see me in a role play. Chances are, I will not care about you. If you cannot deal with that, then do not read any further.
So far, there is only one person I care about. Her name I will not disclose, but she matters quite the bit to me, and more than you will ever comprehend. Ladies, don't try. Guys, don't try. I'm taken. Quite happily in fact.
My interests are none of your concern, nor is any other information passed this point. Yes, I am being a mean person because I can. No, I am not mean to those whom know me well. Yes, I can hurt you. And will, if you decide to try and piss me off. Best of luck, and I wish you a good day.
Carpe Diem.
Current Roleplay Masterpiece~
Character Name: Skurai Talatusu
Gender: Male
Age: Unknown
Race: Demon
Class: Archer
Appearance:
Skurai Talatusu
Physical Description: Standing at a height of 6"7 inches, he has a lean physical demeaner, although his weapons would usually demand far more from a human's body structure. Skurai has golden hair and golden eyes, along with almost perfect teeth. Most of his body is usually concealed by his luxurious golden armor. His skin color is mostly tanned due to his spell which is constantly active, God Hand. His right arm is a completely black color, like that of deep fried ash, due to his other spell, Zabaniya which gives him the arm of Satan, allowing him to perform the technique "Delusional Heartbeat". His immune system is largely imbalanced, allowing him to get sick very often and usually lowering his combat technique, although he is still a freakish force in the battlefield. Those whom fight him don't pray for his sickness, for they know they are doomed either way.
Weapon((s)):
Merodach: The Original Sin
Merodach
A relatively unadorned but lustrous weapon of immense magical power. Merodach is the source for the legendary evil sword Gram of Norse mythology, also known as Balmung in the Nibelungenlied and Nothung in Richard Wagner's Ring Cycle, which was brandished by Sigurd of the Völsunga saga who withdrew the weapon from a tree. In turn, Caliburn, the golden sword pulled out of a stone by King Arthur, was constructed from the schematic of Gram. Although not famous at all when compared to either of its descendants, the strength of Merodach as a weapon exceeds either Gram or Caliburn. The name of this sword honors the chief god of the ancient Sumerians and patron deity of Babylon.
Durendal
Durendal
This gleaming, holy sword is enchanted by three miracles, allowing its blade to never dull even when its user's Mana has been expended. Old legends call Durendal indestructible, and claim it was once wielded by Hector of Troy, a skilled lancer who fought in Homer's The Illiad. Later, this sword became famous as the weapon gifted to the renowned paladin Roland by the Holy Roman Emperor Charlemagne, who had originally received the blade from a seraph.
Enkidu : Chain of Heaven
Enkidu and Enuma Elish
One of the few relics Skurai actually wields, this chain was forged specifically to immobilize gods, albeit significantly less effective against opponents with little or no divinity. Though not a true weapon, Enkidu is Gilgamesh's most trusted weapon. This artifact honors Skurai's old friend Enkidu, and is the very chain that bound the Bull of Heaven in Babylonian legend.
Gáe Bolg: The Spear of Impaling Barbed Death
Gae Bolg
An ability that inverts the concept of causality, creating a phenomenon where the spear is thrust only after it has made contact with a target. When the true name of Gáe Bolg is invoked, the opponent has already been pierced before the attack is initiated, regardless of the path the strike must follow to reach its target. Agility is meaningless in avoiding this ability; the only defense is a high degree of luck, which alters fate ahead of time. In spite of this destiny-interference property and its accuracy, use of Gáe Bolg is economical, consuming so little Mana it can be used seven times without pause for recharge. This weapon derives its name from Gáe Bolg, the barbed spear of Cú Chulainn.
Enûma Elish -Ea: The Star of Creation that Splits Apart Heaven and Earth
Enuma Elish
An aphotic, pillar-shaped blade, etched with fine crimson letterings in cuneiform. With an energy output far superior to even Excalibur, rotation of Ea's tri-blade segments vacuums and compresses surrounding atmospheric gasses. Upon release, the ensuing cataclysmic blast sunders the foundations of reality, causing a collapse of time and space that disintegrates everything around the area of attack. Ea's material components have no origins in the mortal plane; unlike other weapons, it cannot be replicated through tracing. It is the most powerful weapon in Skurai's arsenal. The title Enûma Elish is an allusion to the Babylonian creation epic, and Ea is Babylon's patron deity of water.
Are You A Magic User?: Yes.
Spells:
Argon Coin: The Golden Fleece
A coat of golden wool from the winged ram Chrysomallos, given to King Aeëtes of Colchis by Phrixus as a token of his gratitude. Possessed by a powerful spirit, Argon Coin is capable of summoning the dragon that originally guarded it when it is thrown upon the ground.
God Hand: The Twelve Labours
A divine blessing in honor of his deeds in life, Skurai's flesh has become extremely durable, granting invulnerability to any attack below the rank of "A". Furthermore, he has an accelerated regeneration rate, and can not only neutralize normally fatal injuries, but resurrect himself from death eleven times, granting him a total of twelve lives. Skurai's rugged hide and dark complexion are consequences of this sorcery. The name is inspired by The Twelve Labours imposed on Heracles by Hera.
Zabaniya: Delusional Heartbeat
The arm of curse. It is the arm of evil spirit: Sheytaan (Satan), and it excels in killing humans by curse. Using a chunk of ether, it creates a duplicate existence which affects reality. By destroying the fake existence which resonates with his target, he is able to kill his targets without even touching them.
An assassination skill which nullifies any powerful physical defense and directly pierces the heart. No matter how solid the armor is, it is meaningless against the Delusional Heartbeat. In order to avoid the Delusional Heartbeat, Mana is more important than Endurance, which will not to allow him to create a duplicate existence
Gáe Bolg: The Spear of Striking Death Flight
This technique utilizes the full potential of Gáe Bolg's curse, converting Mana into energy and releasing the accumulated power on contact after the spear is hurled. In contrast to the Impaling Barbed Death property, the Striking Death Flight is far less accurate, but it puts greater emphasis on raw power and has a wider area of impact, similar in concept to detonating an explosive device. The two functions of Gáe Bolg are said to be based on the legendary spear of Odin, Gungnir.
Tsubame Gaeshi: Swallow Reversal
It is an attack that bends the laws of physics to cause what is known as a Reality Refraction Phenomenon, which consists of three unavoidable, simultaneous strikes from different directions. Unlike the techniques of other assassins, Tsubame Gaeshi requires no additional Mana beyond what Assassin needs to move, although a level foundation is necessary to ensure perfect execution. The name honors a technique of Sasaki Kojirō, who was said to be able to cut down a swallow in mid-flight.
Gate of Babylon : King's Treasury.
A small, plain sword that doubles as spatial key, allowing Skurai to access his vast wealth contained within a vault in the heart of ancient Babylon. Inside this treasury are a myriad of swords collected during the peak of Uruk's civilization. Skurai either throws these weapons or fires them out of his vault like rockets. Any weapons or artifacts discharged by Gate of Babylon return to the vault after an indeterminate amount of time. Because he lacks proficiency with any of these weapons, Skurai will typically only fire the weapons as projectiles; in several instances, Skurai has removed and normally wielded weapons. It is the hurling of these weapons that designate his class as an Archer.
Personality: Usually, Skurai is a quiet and reserved person, trying with all of his self control to avoid people, especially females for reasons unknown to many groups of people whom are still amongst the living. Skurai only tends to say what is needed, and is lost in long trails of thoughts there after, moments where many people have tried to kill Skurai and has ended up in more pain than most of his victims. During battle, Skurai is usually wild and "imaginative" in horrible ways. At times, he is even overconfident and arrogant and tends to overdo things, ignoring his limited amount of mana, a disadvantage that many people don't know about, and most other people too busy complaining about to live for very long.
Bio: Not much is known about Skurai, seeing as even pictures of him are burned. There are many rumors about this walking enigma, but nothing that is said can be proven. Was is fact about this man, is the overwhelmingly large bounty running on his head, that is said to be wiped out if he were to join a group of mercenaries known as “The Storm Riders”, which he has for the sole purpose of wiping away the large bounty on his head. His power is almost limitless and unmatched, but his health is not exactly the best. Though he looks somewhat young, his age can't be anything below six hundred years, and Skurai is sick almost constantly, leaving quite a toll on his body when he uses any sort of skills. His skills in combat are also almost unmatched by all whom has faced him, but at a cost. His days are numbered as the energy that is keeping him alive though he has lived well over any human has, the energy known as Mana, begins to run thin. He has gone through many quests, gathering many legendary items to aid him on his journey for everlasting Mana, but alas, it has proven to give him nothing. He is constantly chased by mercinaries, constantly attempting to collect both his head and the large amount of money which would be rewarded. But barely anyone ever stops to wonder how he ever attained such a large bounty on his head in the first place...
