(http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a323/Robopoop/Bio%20Pics/GuyLyingBackRateA.jpg)<br/><br/><strong>Name</strong>: True name unknown, goes by the name 'Jeriah'<br/><strong>Age</strong>: 1043<br/><strong>Sexual Orientation</strong>: Straight<br/><strong>Hair color</strong>: Coal black<br/><strong>Eyes</strong>: Deep Infernal Red<br/><strong>Associated Sins</strong>: Pride, Envy, Wrath, Lust, Greed, Sloth<br/><strong>Demonic Type</strong>: Temptation<br/><br/><strong>Powers</strong>: Compared to his peers, he appears very weak in terms of power, having no special abilities whatsoever. However, only a few know that the root of his powers are charged by the emotions and inner desires of the mortals around him. Just by a meer thought or glance, he could send a normally placid individual into a lusty rage, depending on the individual he is targetting. He has the ability to sense a mortal beings inner most wants and desires, and in turn, manipulate these desires to surface into reality, sometimes manipulatn these desires to become something else entirely. For example, if he sees a man who feels prideful and angry but doesnt show it, he is able to surface these inner emotions to consciousness, turning the man openly prideful and angry, or even envious and greedy. All depends on how mentally strong the individual is. The stronger the individual, the longer it would take for him to convert them, but he is never short of the weaker willed to play with.<br/><br/><strong>Personality</strong>: Even in demonic circles, this particular demon of Temptaton was different, contemplative, eccentric, intelligent and mysterious. He does not delight in the suffering of others, only reveling in the consequence that came with the context of change. He enjoys seeing the charitable do selfish things, the humble bowing to no others and the chaste relishing in the joys of the flesh. Its the change from the selfless to the selfish, mortals falling prey to temptations and contradictions, for better or for worse. He believes that Heaven's infleunce and virtues are necessary opposition, part of the balance that keeps all things as they are, but he also thinks that the influence of goodness and morality was too tight rooted into humanity that mortals forget that they are themselves masters of thier own fate, not pawns to a higher power. He believes that humanity should be free to do as they wanted, free to indulge in temptation, not to have thier actions and beliefs dictated by something they cannot even see. On Earth, his persona as Jeriah was seen as the typical bad boy in town, a disguise to hide the great wisdom and insight that he had developed over 1000 years of watching humanity grow and change. He prefers to stay out of any conflict and use his powers of temptation to control and manipulate those he found interesting.<br/><br/><strong>History</strong>: A long time ago, this demon's soul was once human, and he ruled a small country with an iron fist. He indulged over his power over his subjects, not knowing that one day he would die by the sword of another man who wanted his kingdom. When he was cast into Hell, his damned soul was tortured and torn at by the demons who came to him, keeping him chained to the ground and the things he wanted just out of reach, constantly tempting him his vices and cravings. However, as the many temptations of Hell floated around him, he began to brood upon schemes and clever plans, knowledge trained from his many years of ruling his doomed country. The demons took notice and debated if his soul was worthy to be one them. When he managed to trick a demon into killing another, the decision was made and his chains were broken. He spent 100 years indulging in the Sins he once partook as a mortal, Pride, Envy, Wrath, Lust, Greed and Sloth, all at once to feed his thirst for them. When he was finally satisfied, he was initiated into demonic rank, rising slowly with each passing decade and each unfortunate passing of any demon above him. By modern times on Earth, he had risen high enough to be a demon of noble status in demonic heirarchy; a Baron, owning several expanses of infernal land in several levels of Hell, and was allowed back into the mortal realm to spread the taint of his Sins. When a certain mortal came to Hell's demons' attention, the woman Rose-Marry Jones, they contemplated over the extent of her awakened power, and after several councils, the now powerful 1000 year old demon was sent up to tempt her into joining their cause of destruction. As soon as he reached the surface, he took on the name 'Jeriah' and made himself a mortal disguise before he went off smiling, toward Rose's home residence.<br/><br/><strong>Quotes</strong>:<br/><br/>General  - "Trust me....
