• about

  I'm using this page to store random fun facts about this character either delivered here by me in the context of his history or through roleplay situations. This is stuff your character may or may not find out about and I'm using it primarily as a memory dump for me.
  
  Note: This character is a devil and has a colorful history. While he comes off as dapper now, a lot of his background is pretty messy and/or disgusting. It's just the history of the character, so please don't be offended.
  

• history

  Illés has been summoned twice in his existence. While the info page elaborates on the second summoning, the first one went left unsaid. Before Illés had a human body via the second summoning (sacrifice), his most constant form was a black dog. A pagan witch called Piroska, widely feared for her palatoschisis and knowledge of black and blood magicks, became obsessed with the devil then-commonly recognized as the Ördög. She made regular sacrifices in his honor and multiple attempts to raise him, of which all but one went unnoticed. She declared herself his high priestess, continued to freak out every living villager within gossiping distance, and eventually succeeded in summoning Illés. Having opted against any precautions because of some bad plans and her gullible devoutness for this creature, the hag seduced and copulated with the black dog. The horrific union produced an abomination equivalent to some loathsome mixture of lion and man, and it crawled out of her to terrorize and cannibalize the peoples of the nearby forests for a solid decade before it eerily disappeared. Several local hunters claimed false trophies on its death, but no one was sure of what exactly happened to it or where it even came from.
  
  Later, when someone had mustered up the courage to pay the hag a visit, they found her catatonic. Soulless.

  "But if I'm wrong. I've heard things, you know. Where I come from, there's a few stories on this stuff. Some of it's subtle, sure, but the build-up? It's terrifying. I swear I met a boatman two weeks past his victimization. The ship was swallowed whole and the sharks had combed the debris, including the survivors. Yet this man was there at the wharf, tying his short vessel up like nothing had happened, his skin as blue as ice and his voice so cracked that I ran and never went back there. I was seven and my dad worked those docks." This story was tall, sure, but as mentioned previously, some honesty did exist. While Elias might have not been that boy, he had known him. In the opinion of his poor fisherman father, he'd also killed him at age twenty, manipulating the same details of what he'd just imparted to Yune in favor of stripping him of the only thing his Savior cared about.
