His body is well trained and his muscles are very well defined and without buffing him. The muscles are somehow small but well defined. He has a prominent collar bone and jawline, as the other bones due to his slim build. He has a downed messy hair, brown in color. His bangs are formed from spike-like strands of hair pointed downwards. His face looks both cold and young...like a 17-20 yo human boy. Tough some people might see him having an innocent like face. His eyes are like two cold brown jewels, clear and sharp. He has small ears and a pretty small mouth. His eyebrows are slim and well contoured, like he was shaping them, though they are like that naturally. He has his canines slightly longer than a normal human, making him look similar with a vampire. His clothing consist in having a simple shirt, a pair of black jeans with black sport or mountain boots. Aside from this simple attire, he also wears a long black hooded coat that reaches until his knees. Extra: On his left hand he has a black tribal tattoo that cover his entire arm in an abstract pattern which goes from the back of his hand until the left side of his chest and back. Also, Ranganok is 100% human. Personality Personality: It couldn't be said that Ranganok has a well defined personality. If it were to describe him in one word, it would be Singularity. He tends to be able to be everything, from a cruel tyrant to a kind stranger, from a very serious person to a very sarcastic/joking one, from a hard working one to a lazy one and so on, and all of these sides are still him. Though there are some traits that he has almost at all times. He is always open minded, and is never 100% sure of what he knows. He always leaves room for doubt in case he is wrong, so that he may learn and become better. Always thirsting for knowledge, he loves exploring old ruins, artifacts and learning teaching from all. He doesn't try to prove his point or to prove that the other is wrong. Instead, he keeps asking them question until they block and some realize they're wrong themselves. He loves life, and all living beings. Unconditional love, love for all creation. This is one of the main reasons he can't feel hate and envy. Tough this doesn't stop him from experiencing anger. He doesn't believe death to be something negative or bad at all. In his philosophy, all life comes from Illumin, and once it ends it returns to the Illumin. Also because of his love, he wants to guide the people, to help them raise themselves, teach them how to achieve what they want and be happy, and this doesn't limit only to wizards. He believes that any sentient being can achieve greatness. He can also have complete control over his emotions and desires, making it much easier to use his power. This way, he can be both warming kind or cruely cold. He can kill someone without any hesitation, swift and merciless, if he deems that is necessary. He believes his actions are guided by the God Illumin himself, trying to help the destiny unfold. He believes that everyone has a path, and Illumin's will is to make sure that destiny will happen, one way or another. A god, in his eyes, is singularity. Everything in the galaxy is the physical manifestation of the Gods, the living included. Thus, He is the God itself and his will is heeded by Illumin, after all, If he wants something he asks it from Illumin and it will somehow give Ranganok the opportunity to gain what he desires."Everything is yours for the taking, if you only ask". His philosophy about the people is that everyone has the right to be who they want, how the want and do what they want. But the others have the right to respond how they want as well. "You are free to choose what you want, but you are not free from the consequences of your decisions." One of his strongest personality traits is empathy. He is able to understand any living being, even when they do most atrocious things. Because he always tend to put himself into the other's shoes in order to understand them better. This way, he developed a skill to read people and guess their intentions. One of his greatest desires is to create a place, where people understand each other, where they share their knowledge and work as one. A place of eternal happiness, love and knowledge and a sanctuary for any who comes to it. Ranganok often likes to stay and observe people, to test them and see how they react in some circumstances, what decisions they make and where will they end to. He will grant them knowledge and help them harness they power, so that he may see how they use them and if they end being a hero or a villain. Even though he lived for some time and maybe he achieved some things, he still keeps himself humble, thinking that he is just doing what he needs to, as everyone else, and he doesn't see himself special, above all others. On the contrary, he believes that with proper knowledge and training, everyone can achieve the level he has, thus, making everyone his equal. He also thinks of himself as a keeper of balance. So whenever someone seems to threaten the balance and bring chaos, he will start to act and eliminate those persons, some times in a most horrid way. He doesn't discriminate, be it a hero, a villain, a king, a slave etc...if it goes out of control, he will eliminate, and trim it down to an acceptable scale. Even though he did and sometimes still does atrocious things, he knows self restraint. He knows when to spare and when to kill. When to win and when to lose. When to act and when to stay. He is a very honest man, almost never lying and when he promises something he sees it trough the very end. He knows that when in someone's else base, he should abide by the rules, as he expects from them when coming to his. He almosr never lies, and because of that he never tries to deceive anyone. He respects the free will above all else, thus never imposing his way of life, teachings or even his will onto others. He likes to explore new places, and enjoy the little things in life, like good food, and find new sources of entertaining. Traveling to new places, learning from different cultures, eating new types of food and drinking, participate in games, or just spectate, admire views, know people and observe them and this list goes on and on. Whenever he discover something new or interesting he becomes enthusiastic like kid when discovering something new to play with. Ranganok also has a philosophical side, where he sometimes talks about life and all it has to offer, sometimes even speaking in rimes. He made a habit of this from learning many guilds philosophies including the good and the dark ones, creating his own from a combination of those. He could be seen as the "wise old man" who sometimes talks in riddles. Likes:

History History: The Darkness Son In the ancient time the world was a lot more different than now. The world was in chaos, wars were waging everywhere. A certain faction filled with demons and evil people arises. The king was nothing more than a pupped to the evil demon of Darkness which was sealed long ago. The demon left in the world three children created with living magic, his sons. This Demon was named Mogorth and his sons were born as humans. They were taken by the puppet king, raised and trained to be merciless killers. Each one of them was special, but all their powers had the same root. The oldest brother was named Astaroth known also by the Nickname Demon. He became one of the best swordsman. He was also taught Dark Dragonslayer magic by the magical projection of the Dark Demon himself. His specialty being war...He was in charge of all the military of the faction. The next son, the middle one was named Kherubim nicknamed as The Raven. He was the tricky one. He was always plotting and fighting for fun. His power was revolving in corrupting living beings with his darkness, turning them into monsters and controlling them. He was taught Demonslayer magic by the powerful demons of the faction. He was in charge of all the faction's economical and political domain. Due to his plots, and slyness he became a fine leader, deceptions and manipulation being his weapons. The last son, the youngest of all, his name was Ranganok also know as The Wolf. He was the youngest yet the most destructive of all the brothers. He had the power to manipulate darkness in it's pure energy form causing mass destruction. A certain old wizard taught Ranganok the secrets of the Dark Godslayer magic. He was heartless, merciless, like a robot. He was the most serious of all and the scariest. Due to his raw destructive power he was the leader of a special squad made of the most powerful persons in the faction. The sheer power of the 7 man squad was enough to erase an entire army, or a fortress. With those three as the supreme commanders of the faction, the "Guild" soon became a powerful force. Village after village, city after city, in this remote and islolated kingdom, all of them were falling before the might of the three darkness brothers, also known as The Dark Trinity. Because of their special magic, they were called sons of darkness. The Guilds's influence expanded at an amazing speed dominating a vast land with the help of the evil demons and their followers. Everything was going fine and when they reached the top something happened. Dragon, the dark Dragonslayer had a change of heart...the source is unknown but he decided to leave and betray the guild to join the opposing faction and destroy his own dark Guild. Ranganok and his special force were sent on a mission to track down Astaroth and capture him. After several tries to intercept him, the boy finally found Dragon. The man became a completely new person. A fight between Wolf and Dragon emerged. The fight was one of epic proportion, no one giving an opening to the other, however, in the end, Ranganok was defeated by his older brother. Later after Wolf came back to the Headquaters, he was uneasy and spaced out because what happened back when he fought with Dragon.During a month, where Ranganok continued his conquest along with his remaining brother Kherubim, he became more hesitant and full of thoughts. One day, the boy met a saint, a girl with golden hair which was captured by the Guild. She was a critical person to the faction which is why Ranganok was tasked to be her guardian and make sure no one rescues her. The time he was spending with the girl was starting to change him little by little until one day when he finally reached the same conclusion. He left the empire, betraying his "father" and joining the opposing faction with his new beloved. Ranganok remained the same heartless cruel man or this was what is seemed, but one thing was sure. He changed his alignment. After the boy demonstrated the people that he can be trusted, Ranganok has started to have followers like a religious order that was worshiping him. After a few weeks the joined forces of Ranganok, Astaroth, their followers and the opposing guilds started to siege the dark Guild's lands and one after another they were falling. These two brothers brought back a powerful force capable of standing against their all powerful home Guild. Everything was going according to plan until one day, when everything changed. Wolf was exploring some ruins with his beloved when suddenly he fell into a trap. A group of skilled assassin ambushed him. However, given the experience as a general and the power of a godslayer, the boy had, he could keep up with these assassins. Ranganok started to release his darkness and after a few minutes the assassins were no match for him. He easily defeated and killed all of those attackers. However this wasn't the main event. The one that came with those assassins was Kherubim himself. The only remaining general and son of darkness that hasn't betrayed his kingdom. Raven was trying to understand why Astaroth and Ranganok turned against the kingdom so he put a few questions to the boy. After the small chat, Ranganok's and Kherubim's powers started to clash. Both of them were masters of darkness manipulation and they were matched. The fight had a few collateral damage but nothing too much. The fight was continuing and neither of them showed any kind of weakness until Ranganok's destructive force and willpower overpowered Raven. The fight was now in the boy's advantage and the middle brother was losing. Just when everything seems assured for Ranganok, Kherubim found out something rather interesting. He found out Ranganok's weakness, and he found the girl. Because of that, the older brother exploited this weakness, changing his target and going for the girl instead of his younger brother and easily defeated Ranganok. But this wasn't enough...the fight ended with Kherubim piercing Ranganok's chest creating a hole having the size of a fist, killing him. Wolf fell on the ground dead and staying in a pool of blood but his sacrifice managed to to cripple Kherubim and give his beloved enough time to escape. His brother left in order to heal his wounds and everyone heard about the boy's death. However....Dragon knew....that this was not the end. He foresaw that Ranganok would rise again to finish his duty... Conqueror of Hell The Darkness youngest son Ranganok was killed by his older brother Kherubim. However after he died his soul was taken by a group of wizards and trapped into a powerful soulstone full of corrupted souls, full of what you would call, demons. He wasn't turned into a demon...at least not yet. He was still a soul with all his powers, but if it was to be defeated, give up and be corrupted in there he would definitely become a tormented soul. So the options that Wolf had where either die, become a tormented and face the eternal wrath of the damned or fight to survive this hell and escape from it. It was hard for him to survive and escape from that place but not impossible. As soon as his soul arrived to the great soulstone's dimension already a few demons were welcoming him. The boy used his powers…his darkness to fight them. The demons were pretty low leveled so he handled them all. However after killing the small group of demons some more come and Ranganok had to take care of them. even after killing the second wave, a third wave was coming. Those demons were coming one after another without any end. It was just like a zombie apocalypse. After you kill a few you wake up with the entire horde coming for you. So the boy needed to think of something. He decided to run for now, but everywhere he went, demons were there. The only option for the boy was to fight this endless horde of monsters. But something unexpected happened...the was a demon, a powerful Succubus which offered her help to the boy. An entire demon faction was starting to support him and thus a civil war in the Soulstone started. So it started to pass the time...the boy was fighting and endless battle for 5 years. By the time the end of those 5 years, he was already sweeping the dimension from those demons without too much effort. All those "years of training" were pretty good. Now that Ranganok was much stronger than the time he was sent to this hell, and had a whole faction backing him up. It was the time to take on the king of this inferno. This is what the boy thought. So Wolf went to the most powerful soul trapped in this dimension, the Kind of the Damned and he thought that if he defeats this opponent, he would be able to return to his old world. The demon looked somehow humanoid, having his skin red, big fangs that were covering the lower half of the face and giving him the look of a very big mouth. Aside from his scary face he had also two red horns that were starting trough the sides then they were bent upward. He was pretty arrogant and full of himself. The fight between the Damned King and Ranganok began. Both of them were somehow matched, Wolf using darkness and the demon countering with fire magic. Countless demons were killed as collateral victims and even the Soulstone itself was affected by all that magic. Those two's fight was devastating for the surrounding place. After some time, both of them had a few minor injuries. This was the time when the damned king became angry of this blasphemy and released his full power. The demon became three times bigger like a giant and he was made from highly compressed fire..solid fire and glowing yellow but not quite lava..something similar to the sun. The Damned King was able to release massive and powerful waves of fire It wasn't hard for him to overpower Ranganok. The dark energy wasn't able to handle to compressed and powerful fire waves so Wolf got many burn injuries. As the fight continued and the boy was taking heavy damage...the time for the the tide of battle to change has come. Trough all this training he endured, and his willpower, while being encase in a mini sun of fire to be destroyed, the started to absorb the demonic fire of the Damned King. He absorbed tremendous amount of magic which made him get into the ShadowFire DemonGod Mode. As he did this, the boy released massive amounts of dark flames that were released continuously. With all this power the boy finally turned the tide of battle and he was the one overpowering the Damned King. Despite the circumstances, the demon leader was holding off quite well. As the final strike came both of them clashed with full force creating a massive explosion that heavily damaged the place around them. In the conclusion of the fight Ranganok defeated the Demonking who reverted back to his normal form. As the demon was lying down defeated and laughing like a crazy person, Wolf used his ability to absorb all of the demons magic out of him and the magic of the soulstone. After this encounter, he defeated everyone in this inferno and earned the tile "Conqueror of Hell". After this great battle, Ranganok used the power of the soulstone in order to break free from this place and in the end he succeeded. He appeared back in the world of the living trough breaking the soulstone itself from the inside, which also made the magic to rematerialize a body for his soul. As he arrived back in his world, the boy didn't go search for his brothers right away.He learned some interesting things about his brother Kherubim. Apparently some of the great wizards revered as gods gone corrupt, helping Kherubim in order to overthrow all others and become supreme gods of the world. He stealthily traveled the world for a half a year, gathering information about those gods, hunting them. At last, he finally managed to find a way to go into their "heavens" where the self proclaimed gods resided...and that was thanks to his new ShadowFire DemonGod form. Thus, after killing countless cults, he turned into his god mode and rose up into the heavens, killing whole squads of guardian wizards protecting the gods. He reached the corrupt gods, and fought them off...surprisingly, though they were actually powerful, he was surprised about how little battle experience they had...they didn't know how to fight in a team, always sabotaging one another accidentally and fighting between themselves, they didn't even know how to effectively use their power...they were just releasing powerful magic towards him like an overpowered rookie. Due to that, Ranganok had the upper hand, managing to kill a dozen gods, leaving their heaven in ruins, thus descending back on the lands from their floating headquaters. The Fall of the Dark Demon There was a place in the middle of nowhere somewhere on a high mountain that at his turn was surrounded by other mountains. A lone traveler was walking trough the hard path there, he was wearing a black cloak so his identity was hidden. The mysterious man was climbing up a mountain , it was a harsh storm there at that time but the person didn't give up. He reached some kind of sanctuary, a place surrounded by mountain tops. The mountain was a bit strange because his top was split in more thus giving a form of a crown. Inside the crown was rock ground straight and in the middle of it it was some kind of temple. The man reveals himself by taking off his hood....he was Ranganok who escaped from the soulstone and destroyed the self proclaimed gods. This place was the boy's favorite place and finding a temple here was quite unexpected for him. The temple was made from stone with stunning details, sustaining pillars two stone guards on each side of a great stone gate. Inside Wolf found runic inscriptions saying a history of a great person, but some places were empty like the story was incomplete. By reading a bit on the walls he found out that this temple was made for him as a resting place...Ranganok's funeral was here and possessions and history were all here like a pharaon's tomb. At the entrance on the central chamber there was a statue of himself with his name and a few words inscribed on the stone below his statue. Also on a part and another of the statues were two doors that both led to the central chamber. Once the boy entered he found himself into a large round room with different stone carvings on the wall and on the other side of the place was put a big and gothic like throne treating Ranganok like a royal member. After Wolf explored the ruins he left that place and continued his journey...on the other side of the world, war between the dark Guild and the opposing factions was still continued but is was a full scale war now because all the factions united under one flag...forming an Alliance itself. At the top of this Alliance were two persons...The leader of the Alliance, the one that formed it....a powerful warrior and the other one being the oldest brother of Ranganok...Astaroth . Under their command the new Alliance was able to withstand and fight at a matched force with the dark Faction of the Dark Demon. The war between them was still in the middle of the fight...no one had a great advantage over the other one and the end of this long fight couldn't be predicted...until one day... A battle between the two major forces occurred but this time both of them had powerful leaders. The resisting Alliance was led by Dragon while the dark One's army was led by Raven, the middle brother. The fight started, both of them were holding really well, neither of them showed any weakness. Kherubim sent his demon shadows attacks and demons while Astaroth was slashing them with his dragonslayer magic enhanced sword. While those two were fighting the armies clashed at each other and were massacred as collateral victims from the fight of the prime leaders. As the fight continued Astaroth and Kherubim got just a few minor wounds from the battle when the Second son of Mogorth summoned a great number of demons from his darkness. The sky was dark and suddenly dark meteorites started falling from the "high heavens". Those meteorites made from pure darkness started to decimate the evil empire's forces and a big ray of darkness clashed to the ground between the two brothers. From the massive explosion that occurred a figure could be seen rising from all this dark. It slowly walk towards Kherubim as he reveals himself. It was their former-dead brother Ranganok with a somehow changed wardrobe. As the boy finally showed the results of his training in hell he forced Kherubim to retreat with his army back to their realm. The endless war continued for the next 70 years, however the tide of battle was turned the moment Wolf made his appearance.With his cult and legions from the resistance empire he raged havoc upon the dark lands of Mogorth and the battle was approaching to an end. As the three great leaders stood with thousands of men and demons defying evil itself. However, Kherubim was no fool, his manipulations plans and spies in the resistance he managed to hold with the merciless attacks from his brothers. The time finally came when all of the great leaders would stand on the same battlefield and with the final battle the destiny of the lands would be decided. The leader of the Light Alliance, Astaroth and Ranganok stood united and gathered all their forces to fight the main horde of Kherubim and his demon general.The ultimate battle was at hand after such long time, the sky was covered with black clouds and fire raging as thunder trough the heavens. The forces clashed into a titanic battle. Both Dragon and Wolf were holding pretty well decimating all the troops he found as the dark army of humanoids and monsters were clashing with the free guilds forces .Soon the opponents were decided....while the leader of the Alliance was rallying his men and leading them to victory against the horde, Dragon took on the monster general who was pretty powerful and his little brother Ranganok went for Kherubim. Both of them matched, reading the movements one another's and leaving massive scars on the ground from their clash of powers. They finally got serious so Ranganok and Kherubim released their full power, the monster general too but Demon was holding him off without releasing his full power...even if the dark swordsman was in disadvantage. As the final clash between brothers was taking place both Kherubim and Ranganok were injuring the other fighting like two demons. In the end, Raven was outmatched by Wolf and he got devoured by Ranganok's ShadowFlames. Astaroth ended his fight by releasing his full power and killing the general in just one powerful hit. As the battle was almost won, Kherubim had one last trick in his sleeve, he was a problem even in death. He managed to break the seal from their father, the monstrous Dark Demon, Mogorth, whose power was tremendous and his shout was vibrating trough the very core of every living being on the battlefield. The brothers did what they could to eliminate the monsters around and when the dark god released a dark beam, Ranganok and Astaroth combined their attack to reduce barely block that attack. After this they we charging trough the demons so that they can reach their father . If they don't do anything, Mogorth would surely bring ruin to this realm, so they decided to take him out before that happens. The Dark Demon had tremendous power this gave a hard time for those two kids. As they were on the verge of death they made one last combined attack using all their power and managed to kill their father. However the injuries were great and the explosion massive so both of them disappeared after this without any trace into the void. The Second Chance Before Kherubim was killed, he cast a curse on Ranganok that bound his soul to the earth, to his temple to be more precise. After dying in the battle with the Dark Demon Lord, his soul went to his royal tomb from where he spent the rest of his time. From high up above, from the peaks of the mountains, he saw how the world changed right before his eyes. The war between the demons and humans, continued and ended in blood, killing most of the demons. Then, how the men raised themselves and claimed the kingdom, how they developed, formed communities grander than of that of the demons. He saw them in all their stances, love, hate, greed, envy, every face you could possibly imagine. He saw the horrible wars, and the great bonds they shared and how they helped each other. Humans were truly fascinable. From time to time, a wizard would manage to reach the tomb where he would be met by Ranganok's spirit. They would exchange knowledge between, and some would even be taught some magic by him. Hundreds of years have passed, with history unfolding right before Ranganok. 47 years ago, a young man reaches the tomb. It's been the first visitor Ranganok would have in the last 100 years. The man was a wizard, but a weak one. While spending time with him, Ranganok noticed the tremendous potential that man carried, his unwavering determination. But the problem was he chose the wrong magic school. The magic he was using couldn't tap into his great potential, and was actually weakening him. So Ranganok and Aurelius, the wizard made a pact. Ranganok would train the man and teach him the Dark Godslayer magic, while he would have to do some errands for him. The pact was formed and in 3 years, Aurelius nailed down everything needed to know about godslayer magic and his power was tremendously increased. Just before leaving, Ranganok cast a spell that bound his spirit to Aurelius's body, becoming a part of him temporarily. The quest began, as Aurelius became a very powerful Rune Knight, hailed by the council, as a wizard among wizards. However, even tough fame and power was his, he didn't let this change him and he never forgotten his end of the deal. He was to find all ancient books about a lost art. The art of Ethernano Control. 5 years passed, and the young wizard travelled across all earth, gaining quite an impressive collection of rare books, scrolls and such about Ethernano Control. The first part of his deal was done. The only condition remaining was to fall in love. In the next year, without even trying, he found a young priestess. A beautiful maiden which stole the heart of Aurelius. They married one another and decided to conceive a child. That is when Ranganok received his end of the deal. The moment the kid was conceived, Ranganok's essence was transfered to the mother, enabling Ranganok to reincarnate as Aurelius's child and break the curse his older brother cast on him. After 9 months, a child with tremendous magical talent was born. For the first 7 years, the kid didn't know who he was before reincarnating. He was an extremely kind kid which would cry if he found anyone suffering or having a bad day. He was also a very naive child believed absolutely anything people told him. At the age of 7, vague flashbacks started to appear about his former life. The kid was slowly changing due to these informations, but the changes weren't drastic or those that were, were temporary, like a phase. By the age of 15, he managed to learn about his past and who he was. Tough there were still many pieces missing, he had the general idea of what happened and who he was. That was also the time when his father noticed and realized why he asked those conditions on his hend of the pact. At that moment, Aurelius took Mikael(His incarnation name) to the secret library where he was hidden the Ethernano Control Magic. Mikael started to study the secret of the Ethernano, and Aurelius helped him, by giving back some of Ranganok's wisdom to him. But Ethernano magic was very complex so at 15 years it was actually to hard. When the boy reached 17 years, something clicked in him, which made him from that point onward to not age anymore. And only at the age of 25, when he got back most of his past memories, was he able to truly understand and study Ethernano magic. Until that age, Mikael lived a life of nobility and comfort thanks to his father. And it took him 10 years to finish studying Ethernano magic. However, due to some seals, remants of Kherubim's curse, Ranganok is unable to cast most of the spells and he is greatly weakened. At the age of 35, he decided to travel, and go around the world for 2 years, until he decided to come as a stranger back, without anyone knowing him or who he was and decide to enroll into the Rune Knight Order. The saga of Ranganok The DemonLord begins here... |
