After experiencing death once before and escaping the damnation of hell he has become a stronger and more confident person in his abilities to kill without mercy. He strikes without hesitation and would even kill a teammate but he prefers to remain in the shadows Angel would never go through the front door and fight a dozen armed guards.

Black Angel is also very intelligent and is capable of planning out his attacks with well calculated tactics, he smart enough to know when it is a good time to retreat but Angel prefers to stay and fight because he loves nothing better than fighting. Black Angel also takes pleasure in killing his victims.

Around his neck his wears a dark blue collar which is also a long scarf that stretches around left shoulder and all the way to his feet.

The belt buckle is steel skull, his trousers are quite baggy but allow until they meet the black shin guards. He wears dark brown boots that are wrapped in the same type of bloody material that is covering arms.

History
Black Angel came from a dark childhood, he grew with a violent father and mother who was a whore it is no wonder why Angel became a psychotic assassin. He spent most of his life in a small rural village that well hidden and kept its business to itself so whatever happened in the village stayed in the village. When Angel was born his parents were proud but soon things for the family started to spin out control his father started to drink heavily and whenever he could he would beat the living day lights of his son and wife. After a few months later his mother to sleep around the village and this only made his father even madder and which only lead to even more beatings.

By the time he was 12 he hated his father and mother, he despised them so much Angel even attempted to kill them by ever poisoning their drinks or cutting their throats while they slept, this all added to the psychotic tendencies. As he grew up he gained a certain interest in swords, knifes but also he was interested in the dark arts, when his father was beating him up Black Angel was studying about black magic and the underworld. He eventually managed to find a secret spell to summoning a Dark God from the Underworld.

One night as his father was sleeping from another night of drinking and his mother resting her beaten Black Angel performed the spell and within only a matter of moments a dark figure appeared before Angel. The Dark Spectre asked when Angel had summoned him, he explained he wished to end the suffering of his childhood and have the power to wipe out those who stand in his way. The Dark Figure agreed but at one price, if Black Angel would serve him for all eternity, Black Angel didn’t take long for him to think about it. From that moment Angel was given ultimate power and with just a single thought he wiped out the village.

He spent the remaining years as the Dark God’s loyal assassin, killing any who wouldn’t take the Dark God’s offers, Black Angel became so powerful and well renowned everyone became aware a deadly assassin. People feared that Angel may come through their door any day so a loyal and powerful knight took it upon himself to defeat this assassin. Eventually after 3 years the Knight found Black Angel and battled fiercely but in the end the Knight slew Angel, as he coughed up blood, he spoke his final words “Not even death can end my existence.”

Moments later Black Angel found himself in the Underworld, he saw fire and brimstone, people were been tortured with red-hot pikes and suddenly the Dark God appeared before Angel. He told Angel that he had failed as his assassin so he would spend an eternity dying over and over again, but Angel wouldn’t allow this so he drew his swords and attack his former master, as his sword stabbed through the heart of his formers master two glowing spirits attracted themselves to his swords, then there was a burst of light and suddenly Angel found himself back on the human world.

Black Angel had just realized the he had cheated death, suddenly he heard voices from his swords, the two spirits had been infused into the blades. They introduced themselves as Frenzy and Slaughter, what could Angel do now all he knew was to kill, he would continue his life as a assassin but he would work for the highest bidder and for the joy of killing so many people.

Skills/Abilities

Stealth (Active): During his training and years as a hired assassin Black Angel is able to sneak to his target and kill them without them knowing he was there.

Shadow Craft (proficiency): After coming back from the pits of hell, Black Angel has learnt the ways of the darkest magic, Shadow Craft allows Angel to perform some powerful spells. The spells range from offensive to defensive.

Dark Portal: One of Black Angel’s Shadow Craft spells’, he creates a portal which allows Angel to get to a certain place without having to walk. The portal can only be created once a day because it requires a lot of energy also Angel needs to either see or picture a image of where he wishes to teleport to because he may end up a tree or stuck in a wall.The portal is like a black cloud and its is the size of Black Angel, as soon as he walks through one side it closes and opens on the other side, the portal is opened by a simple thought from Black Angel. He only uses to get to the place of his assassination target like outside a building he never goes into the room or area of the selected target, Angel finds that too easily and he likes to sneak to his victim.

Dark Slicer Wave: By summoning forth dark, negative energy he can store that energy into one or both of his swords and unleashing it as a powerful sword slash, the attack has the strength of iron and is only able to cut through flesh not metal armour.The wave is made of pure dark energy and cuts right through any enemy right down to the soul, this attack can either kill or corrupt any it by it, there is a 10% chance of them being corrupted by the wave and anyone corrupted will become Black Angel’s loyal minions.

Equipment
Pain Bringers Blade(2x): Two long steel blades, the handle doesn’t look like any normal sword, the blade comes out at both ends of the handle and merge together as curves under the handle. The blade slightly curves as it gets to the tip around the middle part of the blades are serrated edges which help Angel easily cut through bone. Since the Black Angel’s blades are infused with evil spirits Pain and Slaughter, they like to take great pleasure whenever their master slices through a body.


Familiars
Frenzy & Slaughter: The two malevolent spirits that exist in Black Angel’s swords, they once has a physical form but that centuries ago and now they have been infused into Angel’s weapons. They leave only to serve Angel and like their master they love to kill and take great pleasure in doing it. Frenzy laughs manically as he kills, he is completely insane, he likes to say things “What a pretty face you have, do you mind if I rip it off”. Meanwhile Slaughter is much calmer but has that sinister attitude, like Pain he likes to say statements like “I can hear your heart beat with fear”.

Dark Portal - Angel can only use this skill once a day for it is very taxing on him. He must be able to either see, or picture in his mind the place he is going to, otherwise there's a chance he could portal right into a tree or some other kind of building.

Dark Slicer Wave - The cresent has the strength of Iron at this point and has the strength of a powerful sword swing, able to cut through flesh but reflect of metal armours. It has a 10% chance of corrupting a person.

Pain Bringers - I'm afraid, the floating and slicing and dicing part of this weapon is going to have to go for now.

Make those changes and I'll look at it again.

There is nothing wrong with your character, it's not a bad character, it just seems a little 'been there, done that'. That doesn't mean he can't still be a good character. What we mainly like seeing on Althanas is something unique. There are a ton of assassin characters now, but can you make a unique assassin? Maybe, it would be hard though. Most has already been done.

Approverized!
