Name:Dartega
Age:Uncertain
Height:6'9
Weight:317 lb
Gender:Male
Race:Demon
Appearance:See avatar
Personality:Mysterious, and keeps to himself. He doesn't talk much because he doesn't feel the need to.
Background:Dartega was born in the underworld, where the entire planet was a fiery wasteland ruled by a demon lord called Asterion. Immediately after he was born, he was sold into slavery for the dark king. They tested his magical capabilities, to sense how strong he would become, and put him into the military. From age two up he was training his magic against prisoners that had been captured by the empire.
By the age of seven, he had become adept at using magic. He was beaten and tortured, and taught to never show his emotions in battle. He would go days without food or water.
When he was fifteen, he was assigned to keep the slaves and workers in order. If they did something they were not supposed to, or they tried to escape, he was to punish them accordingly. At one point, there was a riot in the cave where coal was being mined. He went to his commander, who said to make an example out of them. He killed them- All of them.
Eventually he started increasing in rank, and became one of Asterions most prized generals. His ability to get the job done, without any feeling of regret whatsoever, and to do so swiftly and with minimal casualties made him one of the greatest assets of the empire.
The time came when he would undertake the most dangerous mission in his life, and also the one that would change it forever. He and another elite group of demons were sent to destroy Aberon, the last fortress to be taken from the Asyrians so that the empire could mount a full on attack on the Asyrian's last desperate bastion, Metacropolis. They were to sneak into the city, and crush the Asyrian general there in his sleep. With no general to control the army there, the demons would send the message to Asterion, who would then send two battalions to pummel the city of Aberon. It was perfect on paper.
However, the Asyrians had heard of their plans to infiltrate Aberon, and were prepared to trap the demons. Wave upon wave crashed upon them, and the demons, including Dartega fended them off, but the Asyrians were a force to be reckoned with, and they were outnumbered so much that eventually they were overwhelmed. The rest of the demons were killed, but Dartega was taken prisoner.
He sat, magically chained down in a cell that could hardly fit him inside. He waited, for what seemed like an eternity. And finally, one day, he had his chance. Just once, once for what seemed like forever, the warden had forgotten to restore the enchantments on his cell. He had been weak and malnourished, but mustering what he had he broke free from his cell. Immediately the warden knew of his escape.
He charged his way through the dungeon, trying to climb stairs wherever he could. He thought he could see light, and then two massive Asyrian guards stepped in to block his way. Dartega was weak, but he was still an elite general for his great king Asterion. He blasted them out of the way with dark energy, and finally, after who knows how long, he reached the surface of the world.
And then he knew. The skies were different. They were no longer gloomy and filled with dark clouds, but were now clear and the sun shone bright. It could not be possible... The Asyrians had somehow won. Guards came from everywhere around him, and he was surrounded. He could kill them, but that would get him nowhere. He was the last demon in the underworld. Using every bit of power he had left, he tore open a portal, scrambled through it and closed it. He had opened a portal to the farthest place he could possibly go with the energy he had left, and as he went through it he blacked out.
He arrived on Earth.
Other (Abilities, etc):
Dark Magic:
Hell Bite- Draws darkness to his hand to form a completely black sword. As it is made from magic, it is extremely difficult to shatter or break. If he were to drop it, it would simply vanish because he was no longer feeding it dark energy.
Dark Blast: A simple magic attack. It is a dark energy blast that explodes upon impact.
Shroud: The area around him, approximately a six meter radius (anything more becomes a severe drain on energy), becomes covered in shadow, making it hard to see where he is.
Infernal sight: The ability to see in the dark. However, this spell has a weakness, because if anything exceedingly bright was to appear in this state, it would be magnified and damage his vision.
Shadow Imps: Conjures weak, fragile imps made of dark energy that simply act as an annoyance or flying scouts. The more he has, the more it drains his energy.
Shadow flare: A dark fire that saps the strength of anything alive that it is burning and gives stamina to Dartega. (Only a very small portion of energy, about 1/10th of the energy of what he is burning.)
His most powerful ability is his power to tear portals from the fabric of the universe, linking any two places. While he can easily sustain one or two portals, having multiple portals open at the same time drains his energy exceptionally fast.
