<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Features: <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Abiathar has cropped black hair. He wears a thin pair of glasses over his eyes, colored in the vestige of seething flames. Faint red streaks, reminiscent of blood, trail down his cheeks. As of any human’s interpretation of a Vampire, he has pointed fangs he retracts when not in use. His ears are unusually black. He reportedly tried to burn them off after a traumatic incident, but to no avail. For the majority of his body, obscure tattoos can be found. These are believed to predate the Mamono Era, and are a sort of ‘testament’ to the life that Abiathar once lived when he was human.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Style: <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Abiathar sports a loose,ash-coloredcoat over himself like a cape. Within, worn on his pale frame, is white cassock reminiscent of a Coptic priest but sewn vermillion by its center and held together by a waist rope. The insides of the cassock are a murderous red that he attests, is a ‘void of crimson’. Wooden sandals are strapped upon his feet.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Description/Traits: <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Abiathar is a lunatic, in a manner of speaking. He signals his arrival with a hum-drum Biblical quote, to which he ends in ‘Amen’. When amused, he makes a psychotic, high-pitched laugh. He harbors hatred towards Mamono, stating they have destroyed the balance, and he cares not if humans will be involved in his planned slaughter, saying that ‘they have chosen their side, haven’t they?’.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Abiathar is ruthless in fulfilling his desires, but he doesn’t act on impulse. He usually sits and waits, biding the right time to act. When in battle, he unleashes technique after technique, enough to baffle his opponents and leaving no gray area for them to think of a countermeasure.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Strengths: <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Unclear

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Weaknesses: <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Unclear

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">History: 

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Abiathar Absalom is a native of Wardline, a town in the arid regions of MonstrumRegnis, less than a century before the current Demon Lord had risen. The town was a gateway for those who had ended up lost in the desert dunes, but after a certain tragedy known as ‘Chanon’s Sin’, it fell into ruin. Young Abias (as he nicknamed himself) survived the event because his older brother stowed him inside a cabinet – and he witnessed how his only sibling was torn apart by a humongous Sandworm. Abias had then sworn to avenge every last one of his family slaughtered by monsters – and resolved to destroy them even if he were to exchange his humanity.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Over the next few years of his childhood, Abiathar trained by himself, honing the innate skills and abilities of a venator (monster hunter)incomparable to those before him.The prodigy debuted in slaying an army of pure-blooded Wights sent by the Demon Lord to attack the fisher’s village Galeah, and ever since, he had been labeled as ‘The White Shade’ who left a trail of red in his wake.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">The tragedy began nearly six months later, when Abiathar battled a cadre of Vampires feeding secretly on the inhabitants of Polove. After cutting down at least thirty strong, a strange Vampire of powerful energy and domineering aura came from out of nowhere [note: ARMATA DE’SANGE]and bit his neck. Enraged, he swung at his attacker, who had quickly disappeared into the shadows. The vampirism immediately gripped his psyche, but somehow, his monstrous instincts and supposed ‘fealty’ to the Maou failed to manifest. He became a Vampire, but at the same time, he continued to be who he originally was: a heartless venatorwith no remorse over his slain prey.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">It was then that a huge war broke out between man and monster in the purported Fields of Asphodel.Abias came to an aftermath strewn with bodies of the dead. He laid his eyes on something he never knew would make him think about his past self- a war orphan like him. The boy, whose name is Nathan Mais, was raised by Abias like the son he never had. He disclosed to Nathan his identity as a vampire, and to give him unnatural longevity, he allowed the boy to drink a quantity of his blood.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif""> later, Nathan left his master’s side after falling in love with a succubus: the samesuccubus who would become the future Demon Lord of the Mamono Era. The happening came as a shock to Abias – he did not expect a betrayal from someone he had treated as his own flesh and blood. Rage took over his sentience, his sanity.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">When the Demon Lord’s Army and Order forces clashed on the fallen capital Darclite, Abias appeared with a single, blood-stained sword in hand, remorse and pity no longer existent within him. He charged, and dozens of combatants from both sides fell dead. Only a handful of survivors dared to even tell what happened that day - when a demon clad in white made the land soak in blood, bearing a cruel glint in his hollow eyes.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">In every battle of monster and man thereafter, it would come as a recurring event:  Abias would step in and slay both ends without hesitation.This rampage ceased when the current Demon Lord rose to power. His eyes were opened to the sight of monsters and men, turned lovers from enemies. His very ears bled at the sounds of depravity and lust. He was driven helplessly mad. Some had then presumed that the White Shade killed himself, as he had disappeared from public eye.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">In the years that followed, the Wandering Scholar began his precarious work of chronicling Mamono, inciting countless others to follow in his footsteps. A fellowship was formed, intent on choosing a true successor to the Scholar’s work. A page from the LibrariumProhibitorum (a library of encantus’, grimoires and codexes that hosted knowledge of all the world’s magic) was soon declared missing, and several students were assailed by an unknown entity.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">The culprit was determined to be none other than Abiathar himself, posing as one of the student mages. Much to the group’s surprise, even with their combined assault they are unable to land a hit on him, He revealed to be a proto-Vampire with nary a trace of the Demon Lord’s influence upon him. Before escaping, he spoke of words that gave him the title, ‘Scholar of The Malachiec Blades’:

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">“If you remain to where you are now, sinful men, then stand as the world is engulfed in depravity. I wish what you men do not: to foretell its end. ‘The day is coming, when the proud and wicked will burn up like straw. They will burn up, until none shall be left of them.’ “

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">It sounded like a group of sentences devoid of meaning, but as he left, a party of mages joined after him. They were later deemed as the ‘Zealots’ – his would-be followers. It was from that point that he was seen as an idealist and a threat to the balance of the Mamono Realm.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">To this day, the actions of Abiathar Absalom remain unclear.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Abilities: 

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.5in"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Repression -  <span style="font-family: "CalifornianFB","serif"">An ability that Abiathar harnessed from the day he swore to kill every last monster that stood in his path. It is not clearly specified as to how he earned it. However, it is hinted this was a pact he had sealed with the heavens, after deeming it to be a decision that could alter the fate of MR. Repression negates the entry of Demonic Energy and ‘jams’ the usage of it within a select area, rendering all offensive and defensive spells used within his vicinity useless. The jamming process is when he replaces the energy with the one he possesses – Celestine Energy, also known as Reverse DE (first heard from Nathan Mika).

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.5in"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">                        Celestine Energy (n.) is <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif""> the energy of control and abstinence. Connected to the RepressionAbiathar has. He gained this as a result of his inherent withdrawal from society and repression harbored against monsters, giving birth to his unique power that denies even the tiniest essence of DE.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.5in"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.5in"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Malachiec Blades <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif""> – A power that Abiathar wields, intensified by his use of Celestine Energy. It compromises of 13 blades that he hides within a pocket dimension. Apart from conjuring them at will, he can forcefully multiply them to an amount of his choosing and use it in battle to his own discretion, given that summoning a huge number puts a damper on his own health. Each blade is retractable, and has its subsequent effect when used in combat.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.5in"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Una <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">– Charlemagne -  Abias’ most powerful sword. This, however, is still sealed as it is too powerful to unleash in battle. The code word for its function is ‘Destroy’.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.5in"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Segunda <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">– Shekir -?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.5in"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Tercera <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">– Peleus - ?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.5in"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Quadra <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">– Chevalier - ?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.5in"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Quinta <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">– Wallace - ?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.5in"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Sexta <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">-FuurinKazan  -Abias’ most prevalent blade, taking the form of a Japanese katana. The code word for its function is ‘Viscerate’ and anything it slices gains a piercing, deep wound.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.5in"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Septima <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">– Luna -  Abias’ sword taking the shape of a Spanish saber. The code word for its function is ‘Impede’. Its abilities are mostly on to sealing enemy magic.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.5in"><span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Vampirism – <span style="font-family:"CalifornianFB","serif"">Similar to the Vampires of the old, Abiathar has increased regeneration, speed, power, flight, and shadow-travel. He also has telekinetic abilities and can willingly shapeshift into an animal form: a black cat with two tails. It is unknown if he reacts to Order crosses and holy items similar to normal vampires.
