History: Originally a man named Kylexan Alure, the body containing Die Sieban remains ageless through an ancient experimental magic called necromancy, the raising and creating of macabre beings.
It is seven souls in one body, the history of each will follow this.
The first, Kylexan Alure was the son of a nobleman who had a prominent say in the happenings of Scara Brae, although he remained behind the scenes. Kylexan was a glutton in his younger years, gorging himself in food, drink, and laziness. One night, in a dream Kylexan was told by a vision that he would grow up to practice necromancy. His father was extremely superstitious and upon hearing the dream, exiled his son to a far away island. On the island's only keep was where he locked away Kylexan, having wizards send him food and other things to entertain him. Little did they know that amongst the ruins of the village under the keep was a cult of necromancers who were determined and find a new apprentice who would lead them to eternal life. Kylexan was the perfect subject. Through a horrid combination of torture and mending Kylexan received an older body, what he would grow to be (they wanted to accelerate his growth and make it stop basically) and had his soul placed in his new form. He grew to learn the magics of the necromancers and eventually killed them all off in his pursuit for power.
Current age: 3,723

The second, Exar was a druid who believed heavily in the powers of nature and anything defying it was to be destroyed, an extremist if you will. Kylexan had ventured into a grove which later became defiled. Following Kylexan's visit, Exar followed his trail for 3 years, getting closer to killing the necromancer each time. Finally after locating him and cornering Kylexan, Exar did battle with the necromancer. After clashing for nearly seven hours, Kylexan finally killed the druid and captured his soul with his sword, Necrophagist, and later infused the power of the druid into his own soul, what he didn't realize is that his conscience and voice would carry over with the newfound power.
Current age: 2,359
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The third, a prostitute by the name of Nilia Ozaui is the third soul to be claimed. Kylexan's will rules over the others and Kylexan wanted to gorge in his humanly pleasures. He paid the money, little did he realize that after having his way with her, the body went limp and Kylexan felt a rush over his body. He realized then that he could hear the whore’s thoughts. When he spoke, her voice was there as well. She lends her compassion to Kylexan when the purpose serves. She is by far the most calm of the seven and gives Kylexan the most human-like traits.
Current age: 2,152
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The fourth, a sailor by the name of Marcus Sutonius was the watchman of a ship which Kylexan was a passenger on. The man confronted him when he tried to see the captain and Kylexan simply cut him down and claimed his soul. This gave Kylexan the confrontational part of his personality and yet another voice to call his own. The man still rages inside of Kylexan to get out but the curse is too strong and can only be broken through Kylexan's "final" death.
Current age: 1,982
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The fifth was obtained many years later, a farmer by the name of Flo Abiaco was in her fields when Kylexan came looking for shelter from the coming storm. Flo saw the attractive man and complied almost instantly. In the night, she tried to kick him out due to him staring up and down the woman's body. Kylexan decided instead that he would have his way and raped her, claiming her soul as he did the third. She gives him the ability to feel remorse. Without her, Kylexan would be a killer and nothing less, as he was before the claiming.
Current age: 1,283
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sixth, a mage from Raiaera, was adventuring on his own when he came across Kylexan. The mage was extremely interested in his story and listened for hours to accounts of Kylexan's life. Afterwards he told Kylexan he intended to write a book about it, Kylexan warned him against it and the mage tried to run. Kylexan cut him down and claimed his soul, keeping his life story to himself from then on.
Current age: 537
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The seventh was a lithe bodied and able ninja by the name of Tutet Sako. He was sent by a prominent clan leader who had heard stories of Kylexan and thought that by killing him he would gain a fearsome reputation and the ninja he sent after him would be glorified and then feared in the process. The ninja snuck up on Kylexan and stabbed Kylexan in the heart, Kylexan fell to his knees but the ninja fell limp and his soul was entombed in Kylexan's body.
Current age: 193
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The age displayed is the age of each soul. So since Kylexan was the first, he is the oldest, many years later he fused with another, so that soul is younger and so on. Just a little clarification.
Appearance: Although he has many souls that make him up, Kylexan has maintained his same, youthful body for over 3,000 years. From the day that the necromancers put his soul into a growth accelerated body, it has stayed exactly the same. Kylexan has very sharp features that make him hauntingly handsome and give him an almost eerie aura. His medium length black hair only adds to the attractiveness of his face. Extending from his wrists are ancient, necromantic tattoos whose meanings have long since been forgotten except by Kylexan himself. Kylexan understands that there must be harmony between the mind and body and tones his muscles to be strong enough to take on an above average warrior in an arm wrestling match. He also has black, necromantic tattoos from his abdomen to the middle of his chest similar to the ones on his arms, and an additional smaller tattoo series on the right side of his face. His voice is also something to behold, unlike many bodies that contain multiple souls, his voice comes out as all seven talking in unison, and saying “we” in place of “I” and so forth.
Kylexan wears no armor and only has his black boots and large, black pants which cover most of the boot down to the ankle. His sword, Necrophagist is made of black steel and the hilt is made from ivory, giving the sword a contrasting look which many find beautiful.
Personality: Kylexan has all the souls in his body as one collective personality rather than differing personalities coming out at random times as often seen in cases where multiple souls are encased in one body or object. However, Kylexan can hear what they’re thinking, effectively being able to speak with the other souls in his head while saying what he approves of out loud. It is more of an argumentative thinking process where the different souls will often discuss their points and differences until Kylexan silences them, having heard enough. This being the case, Kylexan will often take a moment to hear their input and then respond. He will sometimes appear to be cold and precise, disregarding their input or compassionate and caring, listening to the other extreme, the third.
Skills: Swordplay: Kylexan has lost his powers of necromancy in exchange for a more brutal way of killing. He was warned in a vision that learning the higher abilities of swordplay would make him lose his necromantic powers. Using a combination of light elegant strikes and heavy slashes, Kylexan is considered above-average with a sword.
Despite losing his ability to conduct necromancy, he still remembers many of the rites, perhaps regaining his power at a later date.
Equipment: Kylexan only has his sword, Necrophagist, which allowed him to collect the souls in the first place. After collecting the sixth soul the power suddenly ceased. To this day it is simply a long sword made from black steel with a beautifully carved ivory handle. Its true power laying dormant.
Black leather boots which extend up to his knee and have many buckles allowing them to be tight.
Black pants with a belt to hold them up; they are baggy to allow Kylexan freedom of movement in battle and dance, when necessary.
