CHARACTER (Warning: Multiple Personality character, will make more sense if you start with history)
Name: Zangretor Graneiros + Taabrea
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Symbol: The Mark of MaliceTheme: Zangretor,
TaabreaAppearance: Zangretor’s eyes are a fierce orange with black lines connecting to the outside of the pupils. When Taabrea takes control, the lines shoot forward, into the pupil, forming a star shape inside of the pupil. He stands at 6’3” with a strong, but medium build. His hair is long enough to drop over his forehead and is a jet black. Zangretor wears medium weight steel armor on his chest (similar in design to
Stalhrim Armor) over a black, long sleeved shirt made of foamed neoprene (something like Under Armour). He has gauntlets made of a similar metal (like the golden gauntlets Link has in OoT). He wears baggy black pants (like the pants that fusions have in DBZ. Same shoes, too actually.) with a red sash wrapped around his waist.
Personality: Zangretor can only be described as an insane detriment to society. He enjoys havoc and chaos as well as the subtle whimpering of a helpless captive. Despite this haphazard personality, he is extremely intelligent, having mastered the skills taught to him by members of the monastery where he was raised. Taabrea shares similar interests, favoring personal despair over mass havoc. He enjoys breaking his enemies in close combat, forcing them to suffer massive injuries and crippling both their bodies and minds. He is very adept at using psychological attacks to throw off opponents before crippling and maiming them. Both Zangretor and Taabrea have simultaneous control of their body. Because their personalities are so close, they rarely conflict, allowing for very coordinated movement. If one chooses to, complete control over the body can be relinquished to one personality. Generally, Zangretor seems to prefer a more dexterous, flighty combat style, dodging around and using momentum and careful angling to fight his enemies. Taabrea, on the other hand, prefers to get as close to his opponent as possible while going for heavy, brutal strikes. On several occasions he has been known to rip out the hearts of some of his weaker opponents after dashing directly towards them.
History: Zangretor Graneiros was born into a monastery hidden deep in the forests of an island far away from Vale. The monastery was established for a little known cult, which honored several great demons as well as their divine counterparts. The cult believed that both chaos and order were gifts given by their deities, they disregarded the conflict between the underworld and the celestial in order to advance humanity. Zangretor’s unique, demonic eyes were taken as a sign, he was to be the herald and vessel of the demon of malice, Taabrea. Zangretor was raised through a long series of rituals and practices, designed to destroy his mind and replace it with Taabrea’s. The practices were successful, a new personality began to show itself in Zangretor’s body. They were unsuccessful, however, in replacing Zangretor’s mind. The torture and pain he endured during the rituals twisted his psyche. It was difficult to tell whether Taabrea had really manifested, or if Zangretor had merely been broken as the years went on. Regardless, the monks believed it was a rare gift from Taabrea, allowing Zangretor to co-exist with the great demon. The training to become the herald of malice began. Both Taabrea and Zangretor learned a disciplined fighting style, designed to kill. They also learned to use aura to strengthen their body as well as sense life force around them. The intense training, having been designed for a demon, took an even larger toll on Zangretor. He was broken even further, growing to completely resent the monks who had subjected him to such terrible practices. One night, Zangretor and Taabrea made a deal: they would work together to kill all of the monks. In just a few hours, they had killed every one of the monks, bringing the monastery down. The only ones left alive were others chosen as heralds of the demons and celestials, most of whom had no qualms about the deaths of those who had planned to destroy their minds completely. At age 16, Zangretor was finally able to take his first steps outside of the monastery’s territory. He ventured off, eventually finding a large port city where he was able to learn about the modern world, the technology it held, and the existence of dust. Suffice to say, the idea of enjoying a normal, peaceful life disgusted both Zangretor and Taabrea. They quickly made their way into the depths of the city, joining its underground and committing wild atrocities across the city. Murder, torture, kidnapping, and smuggling became part of their daily routine. After spending so long on meaningless crimes, Zangretor and Taabrea decided to pursue larger goals. They became mercenaries, taking high pay for difficult jobs, many involving large scale death and destruction. Eventually, their work led them to the kingdom of Vale, where they are currently looking to bring even more chaos and despair into the world. While carrying out missions for various employers, they also enjoy digging deeper into the twisted depths Vale has to offer.
Strength: A varied combat style, incorporating several martial arts. Extremely powerful and developed aura. When combined with their unique combat styles, their aura can create powerful new techniques. Each personality has a preferred combat style, making them hard to read and often unpredictable. Zangretor’s favorite technique, the rarely seen Mirai Kick, has the unique ability to deal delayed damage. The Mirai Kick is a kick powered up from Zangretor’s aura. When it hits his opponent, it hits as if Zangretor had not used any aura to enhance the attack at all. At any designated time thereafter, Zangretor can trigger the ability again, causing the aura to take full effect in the same spot, regardless of the distance between himself and his opponent. Zangretor can set up multiple kicks at once, though they all go off at the same time. Taabrea’s favorite technique, Mal Forma, conceals the true power of his aura. All outward aura ceases, moving wholly inward. In this form, Taabrea’s full aura power is always activated. His aura usage becomes much more efficient as well. It is difficult to realize when Taabrea is employing this technique, as there is no noticeable change besides his aura retreating into his body. Should he begin a battle without manifesting aura, it is entirely impossible to notice.
Weakness: Zangretor’s mind is warped in ways completely foreign to most people. Because of this, communication with other people can become difficult and, in some cases, impossible. He places his own ideals above those of anyone else and often disregards his allies. He has almost no friends and is terrible at working with others. Often he loses sight of objectives, making his performance as a mercenary unreliable. Taabrea has just the opposite problem. Often he can end up focusing too much on the task at hand. This, however, does not make him a more responsible or efficient mercenary. In most cases, his focus gets directed at torturing his opponents, causing as much pain as he can. Zangretor and Taabrea are extremely effective fighters and have proven themselves almost invincible in close combat. They are highly inefficient, though. They can be easily distracted from objectives, especially if one of their enemies makes a “noble sacrifice” against them or questions their power.
WEAPONName: Firecracker/Chinese New Year
Primary Form: Firecracker is a specially designed rocket launcher built to automatically reload and hold hundreds of condensed, self-compressed rockets in addition to exceptionally strong dust missiles. When not in use, Firecracker shortens to a length of about 2 and a half feet. When it is active, it extends out to over 5’6”. Firecracker has a high rate of fire due to the mechanism which automatically reloads it every time a shot is fired. Each of its basic shots is fueled by a special explosive dust compound. These shots have a blast radius of about 5 feet. Each vial of explosive dust powers 25 shots from Firecracker. A special compartment exists for alternate types of dust to be inserted. These special shots generally have a radius of about 10 feet, though it can differ based on the type of dust.
Secondary Form/Function: Chinese New Year is the name Zangretor gave to Firecracker’s special ability. In this form, Firecracker expands outward, widening and exposing a good deal of the machinery inside. It also exposes several smaller barrels of the rocket launcher, designed to fire off the hundreds of smaller missiles stored within. When Firecracker is fired in this form, the trigger must be held for the duration of the attack. Releasing the trigger ends the attack. When fired in this way, Firecracker homes in on a target marked by its owner’s aura. It then fires all of the basic explosives, smaller missiles, and dust explosives onto the designated target. Once this attack has been used, Firecracker becomes overheated and dysfunctional. It must be manually placed back into its primary form in a process that takes about half an hour.
History: Originally called the ZT45610, Firecracker was a model for dust storage and quick use. When raiding a lab as part of a mercenary job, Zangretor learned about the device from its creator. He then proceeded to kill the creator, and take the finished device for himself. Later, after Taabrea scolded him for taking something useless, Zangretor determined that it may have use as a long range weapon. He discovered a shop capable of making a powerful new weapon with the storage unit and commissioned the creation of Firecracker. After it was completed, he used it to destroy the shop in a test of its power. Since then, he has used it as his primary form of attack on missions which do not require his full strength. In cases where Firecracker would only hinder his ability to fight, he discards it off to the side, usually not worried about losing it.
