[!] WARNING; This character isn’t nice. He is a villain erring on the grey side, but he’s still a nasty person. This character may touch, lick, or bite your character suddenly, and without your character’s consent IC consent. This character will not care about your character’s feelings. This character may decide he wants to eat/kill your character. You will be OOCLY pointed to this warning if you want to interact with him, but please, if any of this subject matter is triggering to you you may want to think twice before RPing with him. He can be intense, for your character and you! (Everything is of course discussed OOCly first and nothing is done without your OOC consent! <3!)
You are the son of a stablehand and a cleaner, struggling to make ends meet in the rural wildes. Your condition, your affliction of the head, leaves you breathless, panting, and squirming upon the ground. You are a burden to your family; every bite you eat steals one from the mouth of your parents. Guilt. Shame. You know the biting of terrible emotion, even as a child. Job after job, you fail. You work until you can’t, leave, then find more work until there is none left, because word spreads that you will eventually fall over and writhe in the dirt in fits. You cannot help it, but that does not matter. Your parents care, but humiliation and contrition spur you to run away, run further than the boundaries of your village, run towards the setting sun with the belief that something better lies ahead. Some sort of redemption. Something like ‘hope’. One year, two years, eight years and you are dying by the trench in a road, starving to death, penniless, trembling. Your broken mind can still continue on, it is hardened by its scars, but your body cannot. No-one will hire you, the one with the weak legs, the one with the stick-like arms, the one who begs upon his knees for salvation. Lonely and glimpsing the oncoming end, you cry out in the dark to anyone and anything to save you from the abyss. Something came to you in that moment; something from beyond. Something menacing and vile and awful; it promised you strength, it promised you reprieve from hunger, it promised you an escape from the darkness. You accepted because you felt you had no other choice, and from that moment, you were no longer wholly ‘you’. But that did not matter. Because, with its help… you woke back up. Somewhere new, as something new. There was nowhere to go but underground, where the seedy and dark mingle in huddled masses. And you did not seek out the black market to sow your own ideas; you forged your name, you stole your business, and you dragged it kicking and screaming into the light. And you worked. You stumbled upon your purpose. Many, many people died, but you worked and you kept working, and you fell down and writhed but you just kept working. You are a success. No-one will take that away from you. |

★ [ THE MAN HIMSELF ]
He tends to wear suits, waist-coats, and shirts with varying degrees of red and black, because red is the companies colour and black is smart. On days off / when not working, his clothing swings to more eastern attire, befitting of someone who could fit in quite easily in the Suldazan bazaars (albiet, a rich someone). It is extremely dangerous to approach him when the bandages are not about his skull, so it is very, very hard to find him in a situation where he isn't wearing them; he only takes them off when he is alone and there is no external stimuli that can trigger the beast.
He doesn't bother to hide the fact hes half Shroud-fiend. His eyes are red and glow in low light, he has noticable, thick canines, and his finger-nails are jet black (not painted).
★ [ THE GLUTTONY BEAST ]
When the demon reached out from behind the Shroud, it expected to immediately gain a ticket into the waking world to wreak havoc on every living soul. It didn’t get that. Instead of consuming the mind of a weak human, it happened to come across a person so strong willed that it could not engulf them with its power; and instead, the two became merged as one single entity. The beast has no real mind of its own, it is a dumb, animalistic creature born of gluttony. It is not an alter ego. It is a demon form that appears when Rois loses control of it, as it is usually kept at bay with his own mental fortitude and blessed bandages that are coiled around his head. It burns through so much energy so quickly that Rois has to keep eating in order to stop it from simply doing what it wants.
Its skin has never been pierced, and many have tried; [ the way to stop it is currently locked for now ]. Its hide is rubbery, stretchy, thick and smooth, and though it resembles a crocodile its not actually a 'crocodile demon’ or anything of the sort; its back legs are small and vestigial, and it drags itself forward on its strong front arms. It is exceedingly warm to the touch, producing visible steam in all weather, but it isn’t initially hot enough to burn flesh in any area except for its mouth. It’s throat glows an ominous white when its mouth is open. Teeth line its body that regularly fall out and crumble, just to grow back again the next day over. The more it moves, the hotter it becomes.
It isn’t always manic and aggressive-- it entirely depends on how it was summoned, if it appears due to starvation it is essentially a crazed beast consuming everything in its path, but staff have reported to have seen it in a placated state, sated, and as dumb as a dog sniffing around aimlessly. It cannot speak, so it has never been communicated with.
He was told long ago that there are ways to keep consciousness when transforming, but he hasn’t yet discovered that method.
[ Recently revealed through RP; ] - It is scared of other Fiends, and of becoming trapped like many of them do in an inanimate object.
Have you found yourself confronted with a giant crocodile thing? Don't worry, despite how hard it is to injure let alone kill, Rois's demon form has absolutely no heightened sense whatsoever. It's senses are all human, it was something it lost when merging with him; so what does this mean for you?
It means you can simply lose it in a forest because it wont be able to sniff you out, hide in a closet a few rooms over because it wont hear you closing the door, go somewhere it simply cant fit because its a fat ass rubber lizard, or simply just run anywhere at night; it can't see in the dark so how is it going to track you?
BIOLOGICAL SWITCH:
This is not actually the complete true form of the demon; it has been altered during the merge, and in turn, Rois was altered as well. The hybridization of a Shroud Fiend and a human is something that is basically un-studied. Whilst they retain their own consciousness to some level, the biological crossing of the pair has an assumed mental crossing as well, but to what extent has not yet been discussed IC.

Rois is a man that, if he wasn’t so fixated on business, would most definitely be on the run from the top fiend hunters in the realm by now. Your character may have heard of ‘Mr. Crocodile’ or the ‘Flesh Fiend’; and his job is his ‘leash’. Being the big boss of his own little organization means a lot to him, and he defends it fiercely physically as it in turn keeps him stable mentally… without work, he most definitely would be rampaging across Khurun and dragging whatever mortal souls he could down with him. So, in order to keep a powerful demon in check, Rois is allowed to work.
He can be quite a terrible person; naturally lacking in empathy for anyone that isn’t already his companion (see: sociopath), it takes a long time for him to give a single damn about anyone else at all. Volatile and emotionally unstable, the man is quick to anger and is not afraid to take that anger out on others. He can be spiteful, toothy, and has no regard for personal space; and he’s very good at saying things that should be kept within his head out-loud, and toys with people’s emotions as a form of cruel entertainment to see if he can get them to break. Tormenting people is fun, and if it means biting or making heavy handed moves on your character with the intent to make them uncomfortable, so be it!
The man thinks a lot and may assume things about your character by the way they speak, act or dress; he is always plotting and scheming in an attempt to stay one step ahead to the point where getting caught off guard can be a weakness of his. Incredibly honest, when he says something it more often than not should be taken literally-- Rois finds word-play and semantics fun and will in turn take things said to him literally as well. Anything to get a foothold, especially if it makes others look like idiots.
At his very best, he can be entertaining. He can be eccentric, loud, manic, and talks at a rapid pace. He is capable of conversation and behaving himself, but he has a highly sensitive ‘disrespect meter’ (the man is very easily triggered) where, if he feels slighted in any way, he will not hesitate to ruin whatever tame image he had when talking to others. People who put up with his haughtyness and make no moves to challenge him usually get away scott-free from the majority of his violent talk, but it takes a special kind of patience most people do not possess to deal with him. If you fail to rise to his anger or barbarity, you may find someone surprising lurking beneath the mask he wears...
... Someone extremely intelligent. Someone that can be flustered, immature and playful. Likes cute things, sweet dishes and affection from his loved ones. He is insecure and emotional, acts as if he is God, but quietly loathes his entire existence; he keeps people far away at all times mentally and guards his heart fiercely so nobody can ever really hurt him again. Good luck keeping that mask away, however. Rois can switch back to the 'usual' terrifyingly quickly.
His spare time is spent thinking about logistical things, smoking, fretting over his companions, thinking about new advertisements routes and making sure he looks presentable to everyone. He feels he does not have time for anything but the business, and if he isn't putting in 150% then it is pointless; as such, he has no hobbies or interests that are not related to the company. This, even if he wouldn't admit it himself, has resulted in a lot of his high-strung mannerisms.
[ ? ] ... Epilepsy?
He suffers from Tonic-Clonic (Grand Mal) seizures and has since he was a child. His staff know he does, they've caught him suffering many times both caught unawares at work and finding him fitting alone in his trailer, but it is a rule in the market not to discuss it. Not to even mention it. It never happened. He does not want to talk about it.
