This is an NPC that will be used in various solo stories. Haicheyanne's purpose is to stalk Canen on regular occasions, and will make its first appearance in the Concordia thread I currently have running at the moment (it's been on hold due to the second crash of my now restored internet, and I had to dedicate my remaining time to the LCC).

I basically want it approved like a normal character. For reference, Haicheyanne itself is level 1, and Asmodeus is Level 3.

Name: Haicheyanne
Age: Incalculable
Class: Spirit
Race: Ghost / Demon
Alignment: Pure Evil

Description:

Haicheyanne's role appears to be that of a hunter. Butchering any it comes into contact with; it is believed to be a ghost or demon that has has transgressed against the gods Isa and Sera that created and cultivated Nocturnis, and seems obsessed with stalking the Nocturns and destroying them. Based on the theories of what it is that Haicheyanne symbolizes, it can be assumed that the spirit is the product of the darkness that fell over the ruins of Nocturnis after the end of the second Great War, a physical manifestation of the evil that had laid waste to the country. It appears as a large lumbering humanoid dressed in a body length bloodsoaked black smock, masculine in appearance, complete with a black, faceless war helmet with two long black spikes representing horns. A terrifying figure to behold, the Haicheyanne is one of the most feared beings in Nocturnian mythology.

Weapon: Maul Scythe / Samael Javelin

Haicheyanne has been foretold in mythology to carry two sacred weapons. The first is a six foot long scythe sporting a three foot long curved tungsten blade. The shaft appears to be made from a type of wood that has yet to be indentified, black in colour and tough to cut. It appears heavy and clumsy and Haicheyanne is often hindered by its weight, but if it strikes an opponent the chances of them surviving the injuries are slight. The second is the Samael Javelin, a seven foot spear that is crafted from steel. Each end of the spear ends in a razor sharp spike that can pierce through thin armour and tear apart organs. The spear is very light and Haicheyanne is not at all hindered by using it.

Magic: Mark of Samael

The Mark of Samael spell allows Haicheyanne to open dimensional portals big enough for itself only that can transport it to a place where there is life. An enhanced version of the Mark of Samael (recognised as the Mark of Dominion) allowed Haicheyanne to enter a portal that brought it from the supposedly unreachable ruins of Nocturnis into Corone in order to hunt. It is known to use these portals when defeated to escape and recover, but also to allows the demon to find its prey quickly due to its somewhat lumbering, slow form preventing it from giving effective chase on foot. It is thought that the magic of the portal used to transport the spirit from Nocturnis to the Althanian mainland (the two realms run parallel to each other and do not co-exist) is so strong that it has torn a small hole in the dimensional fabric, forcing it to remain open for number of days.

Skill: Ethereal Phase

Haicheyanne can render itself immune to certain attacks by 'phasing out' into a mirage like form. This usually prevents physical attacks from hitting him. Magic attacks can still hit, but do half damage and weaker attacks sometimes do little to no damage whilst in this form. If enough damage is dealt whilst the demon is using this form, it will revert back to its physical form. Usually Haicheyanne will at this stage abandon its efforts to attack and retreat into a portal to recover.

Transformation: Asmodeus

Asmodeus is the true form of Haicheyanne. It is believed that Asmodeus represents the core soul of Haicheyanne, the primal instinct to destroy everything it comes across unrestrained and personified and uses the facade of its physical form to hide its true power. His humanoid shape remains, but instead of being made of flesh and bone the frame of the spirit is composed of a black, geletine like material much like the composition of rubber (believed to be Dark Matter or negative energy). Its 'physical and spiritual' state is then preserved in an inner core (very similar in look to a lilac crystalline orb) which acts as a brain for the spirit whilst in this form. Whilst the core is at the heart of the form it is open to attack, if an opponent can figure out a way to strike the orb inside the matter it will cause damage to the creature. This is considered to be its final form and grants it the following abilities:

- Levitation: Asmodeus can levitate to a height of forty foot from the ground. It can do this for long periods of time until it is hit. If it is hit, it will lose concentration and will fight on the ground.

- Samael's Wrath: Using the Samael Javelin as a channeling medium, Asmodeus can summon forth blasts of molten rock much like spheres of pyro the size of basketballs. These burning rocks will cause severe burns on those not protected against fire and may cause physical damage upon contact from the force of the rocks. These are summoned directly from the tip of the staff.

- Samael's Redemption: Using the Samael Javelin as a channeling medium, Asmodeus can summon a thin barrier around him constructed of a glass like material to protect him against magic. Physical attacks will shatter the barrier instantly, but any elemental magic will be nullified. Note that this does not include non-elemental magic, which will also shatter the barrier.

- Samael's Blame: Asmodeus can channel small orbs of negative energy (equiv in power to level 3) that can be used as projectiles. About the size of a baseball, these missles will impact a surface and detonate, causing explosive, non elemental damage.

Personality:

Haicheyanne is a narrow minded hunter with only one objective: to destroy the Nocturnian Race and those who associate with it. Whilst in its first form, Haicheyanne doesn't speak and lumbers around, dragging its huge scythe behind it as it searches for victims to murder. It is a slow and sometimes stupid beast but is heavily armed and poses a severe danger to those who stand in its way. If defeated, it will simply retreat to a portal or walk away from the fight until its next opportunity. Asmodeus is not as forgiving though: when fighting, it will continue to take damage until it is unable to continue. It can speak through telepathy and can sense the emotions of fear and hatred. It is thought that Asmodeus has particular interest in locating the remaining Nocturn Canen Darkflight, and is using Haicheyanne's portal magic to search for him.

You don't need to register NPC's. You just need permission if you're going to use an NPC in battle against an opponent (you need your opponent's permission, not mine, obviously).
