Ink:Picture:
Armok is a tall, imposing man that very seldom seems friendly or inviting. He is almost always in his uniform, which consists of black fatigues, armor plated and spiked riot boots, and a black Kevlar tank top. He always has his Shadow Clan insignia on his chest, and he usually wears a black leather trenchcoat over his gear. Very rarely is he caught without his shades.
Personality:
Armok is an Everhate--- that said, he is the first into danger, regardless of how great of a danger it might be. He is equally stubborn and arrogant, with good reason.Likes/Dislikes:
Armok's piercing, blue-green eyes are like a hawk, eying its prey. If you are his enemy, the gaze can be crippling, and even friends shiver sometimes when Armok is angry.
To Armok, his Clan is his family... if you threaten them, you tempt the wrath of an Everhate.
Likes:Powers:
Rammstein
Lamb of God
Otep
Slayer
Dislikes:
Canadians.
Obama.
Traitors.
Due to Armok's infernal heritage, he's strong. Very strong. And when he's angry, he has a berserker rage that is terrifying. Fire doesn't burn Armok like it should, and he has an odd affinity for darkness.Weaknesses:
Specifically, his powers can be broken down into four different sub groups.
Lord of Erebus
Armok is the earthly avatar of the primordial darkness. Armok can use the shadows to communicate, shadowstep, and create shadowfyre.
Armok also has dominion over lesser creatures of Darkness, as well as the shadows of lesser umbrakinetics. (Note, Hikari is a very powerful umbrakinetic)
Transference
Armok has the ability to transfer any physical injury from a person to himself so long as they have physical contact.
Demonic Heritage
As stated earlier, Armok has resistance to fire, superhuman strength, and enhanced dexterity. He can't catch a bullet in his teeth, but odds are he can dodge it.
Armok has a heightened sense of smell equivalent to that of a bloodhound's. He can tell who someone is by the scent of their blood, as well as identify what was used to hurt them. He also has obscenely good hearing.
Gift of Arawn
Soon.
WomenOther Skills:
Rainbows
Clowns
Extremely loud sounds
Armok speaks dozens of languages fluently, from Aldrian to Italian to German and beyond.History:
He is a master swordsman, and is very fluent with modern weaponry.
He is an expert pilot of anything from mechs to aerospace fighters.
Sixteen hundred and forty some-odd years ago, the first Everhate was conceived. The mother was a cold, calculating sociopath who was to be killed by the Roman Empire for her pagan beliefs. When the legionnaires entered her cell, they found blood everywhere... and the barely living woman in the corner of her room, glaring at them balefully. As they stepped inside with drawn blades... the door closed behind them.Other Characters: Sanctus Aubrey Nikita
Rumor has it, when the local constable returned from his trip to the city, he found his village burned to the ground, and mutilated corpses littering the still blazing fields.
The father of the first Everhate was a powerful demon, the patron of the pagan religion that the boy's mother followed. The demon was one of the Infernal Dukes, and was the Lord of Darkness.
Four generations later, the Everhate family found themselves in Darkmoor, north of Siberia. The land was fertile, lush with natural resources, lumber, and marble, as well as precious metals. The oddly uninhabited country showed signs of previous attempted settlement, but no survivors were found... or bones.
As trade routes were established in and out of Darkmoor, and cities began to flourish, the Everhate family adopted a more common, European name--- von Darkmoor. They named their country Darkmoor, in respect of the darkness that was always their solace.
Since the family found its way to Darkmoor, the bloodline has flourished. Armok's father, Kharne, was a fair but merciless warrior. He was short tempered, but this was ablated by his wife, Lilith. Armok had an older brother, Tanor, and a younger sister, Nikita.
For the first sixty or so years of Armok's life, he was a courtier, aristocrat, and royal bastard. He lived in his brother, Tanor's shadow. Tanor took credit for every thing Armok did--- and Armok let him. He let Tanor have the run of the roost, preferring to spend his days as a mercenary, adventuring throughout Darkmoor and beyond.
Nikita was born when Armok was in his early nineties, and was a great cause for celebration in Darkmoor. However, shortly after this time, the first conflict began with Nhycia.
Although Armok tried his hand at necromancy, he was no master. His demonic blood scornfully cast aside the black magics and give Tanor free reign.
A long, convoluted war began, and as it raged, there was great loss on both sides. After years of bloodshed and carnage, the war came to an end, and there was a truce. Shortly after the first Nycian War, Lilith was killed by an assassin. The country was plunged into despair and violence.
Armok left home, traveling the corners of the Earth. His suspicions of Tanor had caused a rift in his family, with Nikita on his side... Tanor and his father, opposed. When Nikita quit writing Armok, he returned home to confront Tanor.
Technology had reshaped the face of the world. Kingdoms were now governments, and where religions had once stood omnipotent, were now simply moral guidelines used by clever politicians and lawmakers to keep their sheep in line. Darkmoor was the most advanced military society in the galaxy... and Tanor was directing those forces at Nycia.
During his travels, around Armok's late 790's... he met a woman. There had been countless damsels in distress, flings, and short-lived romances on and off the battlefields. This one, however, was different. True love molded the raw, white-hot metal into a man, and gave Armok the strength to come home and face Tanor.
Kharne had retreated into a black depression after Nikita's 'disappearance,' and shortly thereafter declared war on Nycia. He had been one of the first casualties of the war, rushing headlong into hordes of Nycian necromancers. This had given Tanor the means to dedicate the entirety of Darkmoor against Nycia.
Armok confronted Tanor, and along with the Nycian forces, managed to beat back Tanor's advance, at a steep cost. Near the end of the war, a courier approached Armok's tent, his face blank, but his eyes full of tears. Armok's wife and daughter had been brutally murdered.
The years that followed this were dark. After many tragic battles, Tanor was slain... and Darkmoor was left in the hands of capable politicians until an Everhate returned to claim the throne.
Five years ago, Armok made it back to Darkmoor, with an undead soldier. Their bond went beyond that of necromancer and minion--- far beyond it. The man had free will. During the years of being a mercenary, in this galaxy and beyond, Armok had established space stations, military outposts on far off planets in far off galaxies, and had replaced much of the military on Earth. After sending out a call to the best military assets the world had to offer--- Armok named his band of kindred outcast, the Shadow Clan.
