Danthe Lyndon, Soul Thief
« on: June 13, 2014, 01:13:56 pm »
"Remorse? If you ask about what I feel when I shoot someone through the head, that's spelled repulse."

Name: Danthe Lyndon (officially), by real name Danthe Cory Van Aisering
Nicknames: Dan
Gender: Male
Age: 31 (officially), 584 actually
Birthday: 6th February
Nationality: (Debatable) Cancer
Race: Soulless demon
Relationship status: Single
Residence: A store on the Cancer space station
Occupation: Shopkeeper
Religion: Atheist

Physical appearance
Height: 179 centimeters
Figure: Skinny and nothing out of the ordinary. Danthe is a common nerd that spends more time gaming than eating, though he does some activities outside of his room, too, and thus remains slender, with a somewhat narrow waist and shoulders. He has bony hands with long, thin fingers, and usually gives out an appearance of a rather casual, but still attractive and carelessly elegant person.
Hair: An unkempt mess of brown, falling into his eyes. It has the color of chestnuts, and is somewhat wavy, in a rather careless cut it frames his face and reaches beneath his chin, sticking out in all directions. A few strands fall by the bridge of his nose and shadow it.
Skin color: Pale like that of a naturally very light-skinned person which also avoids leaving their room. That is, about as light as cream.
Eye color: A light grey-green on most occasions. Actually, he wears a pair of contact lenses at all occasions, and his eyes are a rather vibrant toxic green, almost glowing due to how bright their color is.
Facial features: A quite thin face with youthful features that look like something between fifteen and thirty, Danthe has large eyes lined by thick lashes, a pointed chin, and a thin, sharply shaped nose. He has a rather charming smirk and his face is rather expressive. Similarly to his entire self, he always looks quite casual, but elegant and attractive at the same time. 
Distinguishing marks: It is rarely seen, but Danthe has rather sharp canines, and when he does not pay attention (or mask it using magic), all of his teeth resemble the mouth of a vicious carnivore rather than a human. He has a row of three studs in his tongue.
Clothing: Usually wearing loose, comfortable clothes, Danthe is most often seen in a T-shirt of some kind, often with the logo of a band or a picture from a videogame, along with loose jeans or dark sweatpants. The most colorful thing about him tend to be his vibrant-colored shoes - which he actually collects, and tends to wear a different pair every day of the week. Hoodies or other comfortable jackets are rather typical for him to wear, and so are casual shirts, usually over the T-shirt he wears otherwise. He tends to roll the sleeves up and wear several (usual leather or fabric) wristbands on both his wrists. When occasionally leaving the comfort of his store and the immediate surroundings, he sometimes wears a long coat. A pair of thin silver-rimmed glasses with large oval lens usually further hide his eyes.

Personality
An excellent actor, Danthe can't be seen through in most cases. He usually comes out as vain, eccentric, and theatrical. Also, he's a lazy vagabond that never gives out more effort than necessary unless there's something he's REALLY interested in - or there are videogames or comics there.
There is a strange brain with intense imagination underneath the mess on his head, which allows him to come up with scenarios and plans that seem irrational, but that is exactly why they work. Even though many question them, they're usually surprisingly effective.
He loves videogames and most of the franchise he sells in his shop, and is rather enthusiastic about it, even despite being quite lazy, but has a tendency to never be around when he's needed, and is particularly difficult to find. He's, however, rather confident for the stereotype of a nerd that is usually applied to him, and sometimes even provocative and arrogant, quite obviously staring at anything of interest and making inappropriate remarks about things, often other people that can hear him.
Little knew how fake this funny, witty image of a complete geek, who occasionally makes a little drama scene in his shop (and as a result gets punched by one of his friends), is just a complete front. None of that is truth.
He is actually a highly-intelligent, incredibly calculating, cold, emotionless and sneaky bastard that lures people to himself just to use them, and then throw away. He has no morals except for a feeling of personal pride and fulfillment and will stop at absolutely nothing to reach his goals. He doesn't even feel bad for killing people, instead using everyone and everything like chess pieces and puppets.
He lacks any kind of remorse and all he desires is power. Though, that is quite understandable, since he lacks a soul.

Skills and combat abilities
Physical: Rather far surpassing humans in terms of endurance, strength and speed, Danthe is fast, capable of lifting a fair share of weight, and kicking and cutting into him is, unless you put a rather large amount of strength into it, completely useless.
He is practically impossible to kill unless someone shatters the mask that holds his soul. He can regrow limbs and repair damage to internal organs.
Also, he is a master martial artist and sharp-shooter. He excels at utilizing his agility and good aim at using firearms and throwing knives. He likes small caliber guns that fire fast, and unconventional weapons that allow to fire non-metal projectiles.
One of his rather atypical features when fighting is that he always aims for the heart. That is only because his soul-stealing ability requires him to touch the heart itself to separate the soul from the body.
His abilities grow with the amount of souls he consumes.
Magic: Soul-body separation: by touching the heart of his victim (what usually also involves him punching a hole through their chest), he can pull the soul out of the body without actually killing the body.
Soul thievery and soul consumption: after a soul is taken out of the body, the body still remains alive, and it can be returned to its original state. However, Danthe can sever the bonds that hold the soul and body together, and completely annihilate the sound by consuming it and fusing it with his own, permanently increasing his own abilities and power. The more magical or psionic powers a person has, the more effective the soul consumption will be.
The Mask: Without his mask, which is completely white in appearance, with crimson-glowing eyes and three lines over its top part, he has no magical powers. However, once he puts the mask on, he gains control over shadows - he can use them both to hide himself, travel through them, or form shadow weapons. However, if the mask is damaged, it inflicts damage on his body, too. It can self-repair at the same speed as his body, though.
Weapon of choice: Guns (usually double-wields)
Strengths in combat: Practically immortal as long as his mask remains intact, infinite power potential, good aim, shadow abilities, soul-stealing and consuming abilities
Weaknesses in combat: A single target to kill him (the mask), magical abilities inaccessible without the mask
