If you're playing two or more characters (two is the current limit), include them all in one post. Also be sure to follow this format, in order to save space and make things easier to navigate:<br/><br/><div class="codeheader">Code: <a class="codeoperation" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="return smfSelectText(this);">[Select]</a></div><pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0;"><code class="bbc_code">[spoiler=Character Name]Character Sheet[/spoiler]</code></pre><br/>Thank you. :-)<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Marchosias</div><div class="spoiler_body"><strong>Name:</strong> Marchosias<br/><br/><strong>Age:</strong> Doesn't keep track, since he knows it will get bothersome when he's <em>really</em> old.<br/><br/><strong>Race:</strong> Nephilim (angelic father, human mother)<br/><br/><strong>Appearance:</strong> <br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://www.menshairstyles.net/d/35081-1/Man+medium+hairstyle+with+long+bangs_+dark+brown+hair.jpg)</div></div><br/>Unlike most members of the Brothers, who wore dark suits and ties to display their mafia heritage, Marchosias (more often called Marc) dresses in only black pants, and prefers his shirts to be light-colored, loosely buttoned affairs, as if daring assassins to take a shot at him. This gives him a rather casual and laid-back appearance and doesn't make him look like much of a leading figure, but knowing him, that could be the whole point. Strangely, has no visible wings.<br/><br/><strong>Sexual Preference:</strong> Bisexual, preferring humanoid men and women equally, though he'll dabble in more exotic fare occasionally.<br/><br/><strong>Former Gang:</strong> The Light of Dawn, The Brothers Fallen<br/><br/><strong>Gang Position:</strong> Leader, Strategist, Information Gatherer<br/><br/><strong>Weapon of Choice:</strong> Almost never fights himself. He carries around a rather antique dueling pistol (http://www.jcamericana.com/img/pistols/FrenchDuelingPistol1L.jpg), though it's obviously not suitable for combat. Beyond that, he hasn't really shown if he's capable of fighting or not.<br/><br/><strong>Additional Skills:</strong> Being half-angel, has the usual ability to heal quite fast, and would be light enough to fly if he had his wings. Seeing as he deals more in intel than violence, though, his most useful abilities are those of mental persuasion and seduction, as well as the learned ability to read emotions and play on them. While it's not exactly a skill, he formerly had a very large, very secret network of informants, all of which have been recently wiped out, save for a single black orc bartender.<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong> On the outside, Marc actually seems like a rather nice guy. When he needs information from someone, he can very easily get them to like him in order to loosen their lips, and as a leader, he rewards his subordinates more than most. Of course, underlying this all is a calculating and extremely vengeful figure, and one not above killing anyone who stands in the way of his goals, but if you're on his side, you don't have much to worry about.<br/><br/><strong>Bio:</strong> Marc has a hard time classifying himself as half-human or half-demon, since his father happens to be one of the original fallen angels, rather than one born into demonic servitude. In fact, he was none other than Asmodeus, one of the princes of Hell and the demonic idol of Lust, who had sired incomprehensible numbers of  children with mortal women, both willing and unwilling. Marc himself was born sometime before the abolishment of the Kobold Slave Trade, his white angelic wings making himself and the people around him believe that he was the son of some minor angel, rather than of a demonic prince.<br/><br/>For the first sixty years of his life, Marc was an honest man and served as a government clerk, but on her mortal death bed, his mother told him the truth, that she had been a dark witch who had given herself over to Asmodeus, and he was the wretched spawn of that union. Disgusted with both his mother and himself, he commissioned a priest to remove his wings and scorch their stems with holy flame, so they couldn't grow back, then tried to go back to living an honest and somewhat pious life. Now that he knew about his demonic blood, though, new inclinations started to seep into his heart...<br/><br/>Over time, Marchosias grew into a new man, giving into dishonesty, wanton lust, and finally law-breaking when the former two no longer satisfied his need for wrongness. As the years went on and massive cities started to pop up as the new centers of immorality, Marc found his way to Middle City, beguiling his way into a business position that eventually put him in rank with the Light of Dawn. He worked amongst the angels under the guise of a regular human for about 12 years, learning just about everything there was to know about how the city operated, before the angels decided his dishonesty was only a pro when he wasn't using it on their own members, and his constant lust was a bit of a distraction for the workers. Marc was honorably expelled, but that didn't mean he had had enough of criminal life.<br/><br/>Within the same week, Marc found his way to and joined up with the Brothers Fallen, dishing out plenty of great information that helped the group rise up even more in the city, placing them over the Striders as the second most powerful gang in town. Enjoying his new role as information dealer, Marc gathered some founds and bought up several dive bars around town without the gang's knowledge, using the staff to gather intel whenever members of opposing gangs came in and talked too loudly and too much. The Nephilim served the Brothers well for several years, but recently there was a falling out, and all but one of Marc's bar/informant combinations have been tracked down and executed. Freed from gang obligation once more, Marc decided now might be the time to give leading a try...<br/><br/><strong>Theme Song (optional):</strong> I'll have to come back to this. Suggestions appreciated. :-)</div></div>
