  Weaknesses:
  
  [*]Good Magic: Cut him to ribbons. Good does not only mean holy, although all holy spells are good.
  
  [*]Creature of Law: Nigel cannot Violate the laws of the land; This does not apply to those who are Bound to him, or his Property; such people have agreed to accepting Nigel’s tender embrace.
  
  [*]Fallen Angel/Devil: As much a weakness as a strength. This means Nigel can be forced to commit actions against his will. It also means he is not mortal, and does not have free-will; Nigel is evil, but he is also a FAIR creature, and as part of his rules he MUST return a favor given, and cannot go into dealings with people he owes a favor.
  
  [*]Holy Interdiction: The Angelic version of the Mark of Caine, a curse from ones creator, active on the Material plane: Nigel cannot enter consecrated area; Nigel cannot assume his full Strength, and what powers he has are limited, or curtailed; Nigel has extremely limited access to his magics; this does not affect his Wish Granting Abilities.
  
  Strengths:
  
  [*]Physicality: Nigel has ten more limbs than most, and a greater muscle mass all together than one of his size. He is a Dauntless foe to take head-on. Tactics and Strategy will be needed to win the day!
  
  [*]Fallen Angel/Devil: As much a strength as a weakness. Capable of regenerating (slowly), great strength, no need for sleep. Like all Angels, fallen or Otherwise Nigel is a Messenger of a Force of Nature. The force he embodies is the source of his power.
  
  [*]Ritual Magic: Nigel has extensive knowledge of Divine Ritual. This and possession of at least one soul allows him to preform impressive feats of Ritualistic Magic. This is not to be confused with combat magic, and even the swiftest of rituals can take half an hour or more.
  
  [*]Deal Making: At the cost of a person’s soul, Nigel can grant any wish. Nigel does not always deal in Wishes and Souls, and his most often arrangement is forced servitude for a time. The buyer cannot be compelled to make a deal by Nigel, but buyer and lier beware.
  
  
  Visible Possessions- Eight Metal Barbs that attach to his tentacles, Fifteen metal rings around his tentacle, Clothing, two bags, one of which is obviously enchanted.
  
  Hidden Possessions/Possessions not on Person- Gold, almost always someone else’s, His Shield and Sword, hidden Memory-wipe/text-blot potions, Poisons in the Backpack
  
  Weapons-
  
  
  Devils and the Fallen-
  The Blood and the Bound
  Nigel’s blood contains a large portion of his essence. As such those creatures who find themselves drinking of it feel an incredible surge of strength, vitality, and perhaps most seductively a sharpening of senses. The blood is both Emotionally, and Physically Addictive and takes 1 week for every dosage to fully detox from the body. Consuming the blood willingly, in addition to Nigel saying a few words, forms a bond between Nigel and the embiber (Henceforth refered to as Charge).
  
  Through this Bond the Devil gains knowledge, both of the condition and location of the charge. The bond is a two-way deal. While Nigel gains knowledge of his charges their emotions and humanity infects him. This leads to two effects. First, Nigel is far gentler with those who are bound to him, seeming to care for them; second, the more people Nigel is bound too the more human he becomes in emotional landscape.
  
  
  The Possessed
  Those people who have made a PACT with Nigel forfeit the rights to their soul. When Nigel is generous he will allow the person to keep temporary stewardship of their soul, but more often than not will rip the soul out upon completing the terms of the deal.
  
  The main difference in a soul and soulless individual is the degradation of a moral compass. The ability to tell what is right and wrong are not created by the soul, but it does sustain the compassion required to concern oneself with others well-being. The other difference being that only without a soul can one truly value what they have lost. Most people will do anything to get back their soul, especially nearing the end.
  
  
  Devils
  Nigel is a Fallen Angel. Before the fall he had the rank and responsibility of a Throne under the ‘family’ Ezekiel. This means that he was responsible before the fall for bringing the 'Strength of The Source' to those in need of it, and he was one of the middle managers of heaven. Thrones were the highest of the Second order of Heaven, those charged with the power and authority to Judge over kings and foreign spirits. They were the diplomats, traders, and in Nigel’s case the generals. Battlefield Tactics and Strategy were what Thrones concern themselves with during the war, and such is true of their fallen counterparts.
  
  Appearance
  Eerie. The creature before you emulated a man in form, but perverted the concept with the immediate alienness of him. For the normal he stood like any man, although perhaps taller than many at 6'6". His musculature was impressive but obviously built for maximum mobility within his form, instead of designs of overpowering. Covering his body was perhaps an odd fashion choice; a battle skirt of toughened leather covered his legs down to mid-shin on his left, and just above the knee. Covering his chest was a Coal-black poncho of sorts, save with the back removed and adjusted slightly for comfort. It was what was comfortable about such an alteration on a Poncho that started one along the paths of fear, although perhaps it would have been his own skin, the color of a black so deep it shamed the dark, or the eyes of pure Darkness, the proverbial Abyss one was never to gaze longingly upon. In the end, one could not avoid looking upon the tentacles, ten of them coming in pairs from either side of his spine, from just below his shoulders to right above his posterior. As if this were not enough he had a tail, of sorts. Instead of a proper extension of his spine hundreds, maybe thousands of mostly strand-like tendrils fell. Normally they were kept tightly coiled together, in the classic semblance of a tail, but one could never be confused.

  Physical

  Nigellus is a physical being as much as he is a spiritual one. When still an angel he went by the title of Strength among his siblings, and his mortal incarnation is no different. While his arms and legs are not his main area of attack, his tendrils have impressive crushing power. Being encased within the flesh of the devil would be very akin to having a boa constrictor of comparable size. Those tentacles also give him impressive speed when on land, and especially when surrounded by terrain he can use for three dimensional transit.
  

  Magic

  Nigellus is missing the spark most mages have that allow them to manipulate the flow of magic around them. Because of this, it is impossible for Nigellus to perform any arcane feat, even something so simple as drawing aether into reality (Arcane Prepping).
  
  Due to his fall from grace, Nigellus also has no connection to the main Source, so while the Angel Ezekiel would normally be capable of miracle, the devil he has become is limited strictly by his own divine essence, what essence he collects from others in the form of souls, or Angelic graces: a far more concentrated form of the Source's energy.
  
  Souls generate Divine energies, Angelic Graces are bestowed divinity by the creator, and once stolen only have what energy is left in the Grace at the time. Souls are Generators/Capacitors, Graces are Batteries. Due to recent (and temporary) events, Nigellus has access to his own grace once more filled with his own angelic grace. It is still cut off from the source so will not recharge, but has offered Nigel more access to his Magic on the Material Plane.
  

  Souls
  

  Sascha

  was Nigel's first student. He trained her in trade for her soul at completion of the deal. The terms of the deal were that he teach her how to control the physical condition she had that turned her hands into vortexes to consumed most matter it came into contact with. During the course of the training she mastered herself, and her abilities as well as overcoming many trials both set into motion by Nigellus, and Sascha herself. Her soul was rarefied before completion of the deal. Without a soul, and with her training, Sascha descended post completion of deal into a Demon.

  
  
  

  Zanavar

  was a contractor with Nigellus. Cursed to the form of a hourse he contracted with Nigel with the intention of resuming his form as a man. Nigel agreed to the terms of this contract with the addendum that while he would have his human form returned to him he would serve as Nigellus personal steed for a reconcelitory amount of time. He reniged on his deal, and forfited his soul. Prior to entrancement, Zanavar was in the process of rarefying his own soul and was a paladin, so had a closer connection to his source than most.

  
  
  

  Amaris

  is currently in contract with Nigellus. The contract is closed in form. Nigellus is in the process of training this teenaged human girl, and transforming her into a devil. Contract ongoing; currently MIA

  
  
  

  Regina

  and Nigellus are currently in contract. The terms hold that neither can harm one of the others allies or family without due cause, as shall be explained at time of the transgressed parties choosing. In case of dispute, any remedy is to be found with an unaffiliated third party.

  
  
  

  Artic Celest

  was in contract with Nigellus. The terms of the contract were that he would hold her soul in Trust for a period of time no longer than dictated by the completion of the contract. The contracts completion date is to conincide with the date of death of the contractor, which shall henceforth be refereed to as the Incident (Capitol i). At this point, the signed contractor is to resurrect Artic Celest with the energy generated by Artic's own soul, as well as incarnate said soul into the body completing the deal. The Incident was initiated by Nigellus, and the soul was returned, and terms fulfilled to all parties satisfaction.

  
  
  
  

  Typhon Hausmuth-Breed; Ezekielson Ba'Nigellus

  is in Cosigned contract with Nigellus. Nigellus has first lean on Typhon's soul, Nigellus holds Typhon's soul in Trust, ownership is always defaulted to Ezekiel Nigellus until the terms of contract are completed. Ownership of soul is to default to Typhon at age of maturity which is to be no sooner than Twenty years old, and may extend to such a point as NIGELLUS, fallen Angel of THE LORD admits that Typhon has Juris Prudence (Knowledge of the Law).

  
  
  

  Vehga Crowe, AKA Assassin of the Rosy Cross

  is in contract with Ezekiel Nigellus. The terms of that contract are for Ezekiel Nigellus to protect Crowe from danger, especially Sascha Ba'Nigellus (In this term Ba is Hebrew for son, which means 'Child of' not BOY child of), and the Organization whose name is ROSEY CROSS. Crowe is in violation of contract, and his soul is forfeit. The HOLY ROSE CROSS, and all derivations and extrapolation there-of are on notice as one of their agents is in breech of contract with a fallen Angel of THE LORD, not to be confused with a Devil. Transgressions against such forces shall lead to first lean rights being issued by Nigellus in terms to be determined by THE LORD at time of expiration. All magics deriving from THE LORD operating and/or ending within this plane of existence are therefor revoked until such time as full Remedy is reached, as dictated by THE LORD. Blessed be his name, Yahwah, Olam Amen.

  
  
  

  Contract with "The Nexus"

  
  Nigellus was contracted to protect and service the people of the Nexus as Chief Judge to the domain. Towards this end the entirety of the plane was placed into contract. This was officiated through the Planes So(+u)l(-)e owner and Guardian, Artic Celest. For this reason the swiftly dwindling population of the world has agreed to be conducted to an 'Afterlife' agreeing with their Draconic religions.
