• Description

  Hair was jet black, slicking down to have red tips at the very ends of it. Skin was unbelievably pale, almost a pasty-white, over his entire body - Blue veins were clearly visible just beneath his skin. He stood, tall and lanky, his body in more of a forced bent position. Hands almost always would be seen fumbling together, head pointed downwards as if he was in constant-thought. Attached to his side, where one might holster a weapon, was a small guitar, wooden and cracked with age.
  
  Face, however, would almost always be covered, always hiding his emotion. The mask that did so would be relatively simple, crafted especially to curve with his face, and would emanate an obvious magical enchantment. One eye would be crafted into it, hiding his one golden eye, however the other eye would have an opening for just the slightest amount of vision. His yellow, cat-like eye could clearly be seen behind the pure-white mask, though often times he'd merely close his eye to hide it.

• Vampirism/Lycanthropy/ETC

  It is entirely possible to transform Nikolai into a Vampire, Lycan, or other being that would ordinarily require a transformation of some sort, though the way to do this is somewhat different than the normal way. First, as he is essentially two people forced into the same body, he'd have to have one of these two completely drained of energy. This either means defeating Vengeance in a battle, or otherwise stalling Vengeance, or beating Nikolai in battle or catching him off guard. Once these conditions are met, and Nikolai is in his human form, any transformation can be done normally.
  
  Otherwise, overloading him with holy or unholy energy will force Vengeance to flew the body completely for as long as the energy is hitting him, and that would leave him open to transformation. Once a transformation sets in, Vengeance is effectively rendered useless.
  
  Consider this my agreement towards any type of transformation or otherwise infectious character change.

• Biography

  Nikolai came from a poor family which lived in a very cold region. He always tried to dress up nicer than what he really owned, which shows even to this day. He always tried to create his own clothing, using whatever he could afford in order to try and make himself something nice. Usually, he would stand out in the streets and play his guitar for the money that passersby would give to him. However, at his sixteenth birthday, he grew tired of never having enough, and left his village as a wanderer. In many towns, he was forced to become a pickpocket and thief, trying to take whatever seemed valuable at the time just to make it. Since he was unable to talk, most of the time he was forced to flee if he was ever caught, the only thing he could ever take was his guitar.
  
  Nikolai, angry at the fact that he had nearly no magical powers while those in his guild did, tried to summon a spirit in order to assist him. Doing a ritual one night, he managed to summon the demon "Vengeance", which almost immediately took over his body. Though Nikolai can control it, for the most part, the fright from the demon taking over instantly gave it power. Killing four people, and nearly killing two, it's a decision Nikolai regrets to this very day, and tries to forget about[with his Alcoholism.]

• Wardrobe

  Casual Wear
  
  Black top that doesn't really possess any special quality, and is extraordinarily plain. Has a slight V at the neck. Pair of black leggings that flare outwards at the bottom but don't cover the very ends of his legs or feet. He has a generic black cloak that's been ripped and torn to all hell, and is likely more there as a reminder of something.
  
  Performance
  
  For the few times Nikolai takes a performance job, and actually decides to stop being a lazy PoS, he has a set of wear that's much more formal. A black top clung very loosely to his chest, long-sleeved and going up far enough to cover his neck. Tight, brown leggings clasped to his legs, flaring out at the bottom and completely covering his legs and feet. If one were able to see, he'd still be wearing those same wooden sandals.
  
  Notes
  
  Wardrobe will probably change in the near future, or to my discretion. Nikolai always has his enchanted mask either upon his face or sitting atop his head, unless otherwise stated. In both of these outfits, he has a gray satchel on one of his hips and a small, wooden guitar on the other. Both his mask and his guitar pulse with obviously unholy energy, though it should be noted that Nikolai does, as well.
