2. Age: His vessel appears to be in his late 20's, but really is 500 years old.
3. Background:In a modern day society, heaven and hell go by several names but, to supernatural beings, they call it above and below. These creatures whom roam both plains and the surface in between did not have a name for their species but, for the mortals they interacted with decided to call them 'demons' and 'angels'. Each side had a sub-category, for those who shared similar powers in to one group. The more powerful of the 'angels' became known as 'arch-angels', able to create or destroy depending on the power bestowed to them. They were more involved in fighting wars, mostly against the 'demons' that hid among the humans; during their downtime trained other 'angels' or recruited fallen humans to their side. Those who had been recruited could become an 'arch-angel' or choose to be returned to Earth as an earth-bound or aquatic 'angel'. Earth-bound 'angels' are

Vessels allow 'angels' to take on a physical form to deal with the 'demons' who also have physical bodies. It is very rare for an 'angel' to have a vessel without another soul with them or share with another 'angel'. When selecting a vessel, they observe and judge the person based on their actions before the 'angel' informs them of their potential, as well as the risks involved. They have taken several precautions over the years to ensure that their vessel does not end up committed to a mental hospital after their first interaction. It's not uncommon for the vessel to be reused by other 'angels

Sandrath tried his best to keep Conleth from taking control of his body, not wanting to see his vessel suffer from the effects of torture, but he was too weak to stop him. He was forced to listen to the anguished screams as their torturers started again. Just when things had reached their lowest they were rescued by another group and were left in the care of Cathrin at a safe-house. It took two weeks for Sandrath to recover, but Conleth was broken by the experience

After his pupil departed, Sandrath was at a loss of what to do. He barely received any missions and no one else wanted to have him as a mentor. He began to reflect and took notice that something was missing in his life. He spoke with his mentor and stated that he wanted to leave to search, but Enos informed him that it was impossible. There weren't any vessels to be spared for a visit to the surface. For the next several years, Sandrath observed from above, trying to find an empty vessel
( ... )
Not long after introductions were made and injuries taken care of, Sandrath learnt that his vessel once belonged to his pupil, Loheh. He was well aware that his student had used his power to support another at the cost of his own. He had taught Loheh to ensure that the owner of the body would not suffer before he perished, based on his own experience with Conleth. Lyn and Janos happened to be present during Loheh's last moments and disposed of the 'demon' that killed him. They explained how they tried to resurrect Finnagin but were unsuccessful and left with only the option of burial. After the conversation, Artimus decided to stay to keep an eye on Sandrath and his actions. He apologized to Finnagin for making him compensate for two 'angels' instead of one. Lyn and Janos decided to depart, while Finnagin requested to visit his hometown. Just as Lyn and Janos decide to depart, Finnagin requests to visit his hometown

While standing in front of the gateway, Sandrath figured he could find some answers beyond its gates, but getting them to open would proved difficult. It didn't take long for him to come to a decision: betray those around him. Sandrath activated a sigil he placed on his vessel as a momentary distraction before taking control and injuring Janos. Artimus tried to stop him, but it was a futile attempt as the gates to below started to open and a gatekeeper emerged from its depths. Sandrath paid the toll of entering with Finnagin's life and departed his vessel to go inside

4. Personality:Sandrath is a complicated being, having once been 'good' for the majority of his life until he was exposed to 'demon blood'. This liquid changed him slightly at first, but when he consumed more, it influenced darker thoughts, emotions, and insanity. It's hard to say if he keeps a check on these evolved thoughts and feelings or let's them run rampant intentionally. When Sandrath takes the form of another, he will act accordingly to avoid detection, until he eventually becomes bored with playing the role and starts messing around
( ... )
5. Previous Game Developments: This will be Sandrath's first time in a game.
6. Appearance:With his current vessel, a male human; Sandrath stands at 6'2" and average in build. He considers himself rather handsome, with lightly tanned skin that contains no sign of ever being marked. He is clean shaven, has a head full of medium but still short black hair, and dark eyes that change to a lighter color at times or switch completely black on whim. He moves with a confident air about himself with the odd hint of cockiness and gracefulness, but tends to be lax when he's not keeping his guard up. His attire mainly composes of dark clothing, elegant but simple; especially when he's caught up in a fight. He's not one for layers, but if the weather is frightful, he will wear a coat or jacket along with a scarf just to appear human
( ... )
7. Abilities:Since Sandrath isn't human, he doesn't require food or sleep, but that won't stop him from enjoying a meal once in a while or pretend to be sleeping. He can carry a grown man with ease, unless they put up a struggle
( ... )
11. Writing sample - Third Person Prose: The night had been a glorious one and Sandrath had been indulging himself in various delights for a sinful arch-angel like himself. Although the evening would have been complete if he could have got his hands on Artimus once more, to torment and mess with. Upon exiting a local pub and deciding to take a stroll down a back alley, with a grin on his face, it didn't take long for him to come across a scene of someone being mugged. If something wasn't done, it could evolve in to something terrifying for the victim; not like Sandrath cared what would happen.
There was a shriek for help from the woman and the two thugs stared at him, armed with knives. One of the thugs snarled a threat about killing the woman in his grasp and the other attempted to insult him. How pathetic, they were just asking to be killed.
"Now, now, that's not exactly how to get on her good side. I should know," he informed, making a small hand gesture to himself as the color in his eyes was devoured by darkness. "So, which one
( ... )
"You still haven't found your voice, have you?" He asked, taunting slightly as his weapon switched back to the glove with the claw and took a few steps back, watching his new opponent intently. "This one-way relationship isn't going to get us anywhere. I need my answers and you can't seem to provide them
( ... )
12. Writing sample - First Person Prose:This form is actually not too different from my first vessel, Conleth or whatever it was. He seemed rather innocent and hopeful at first. ...Anyway, together we had our first experience of war. You can expect the typical: explosions, gunshots, blood everywhere with people yelling or screaming. Back then, it was terrifying to witness so much death in front of your eyes. But, taking in the scenery could get you killed or land you in the arms of the enemy

When a person is within ten feet of Sandrath, he can sense their presence and judge whether they're an 'angel', a 'demon', a human, an animal or something else entirely. However, in order to do this, his eyes must switch to their black, 'demonic' state. Using this ability at the Keep will tell him if the person is human or not
