Name: Raphael
Gender: Male
Age: 26
Appearance: A lithe man wearing a black catholic priest's vestment with dirty blond hair and and crystal blue eyes. He keeps the suit clean, and usually keeps a long rosary wrapped over each sleeve. When he fights, he unbuttons his vestment and lets it fall to either side of his body, exposing his, horribly mutilated, upper torso and arms completely, whenever possible.
Bio/Background/Whatever: Raphael used to be a rather young priest, fresh from school, when he and the older priest at his church were called upon to do an exorcism in a home of one of his parish. Normally, such things are all in the 'possessed' heads, but in this particular case, the possession was true. The possessed's body, which had been locked in its room, was surrounded by a non-consuming flame, and chains lashed about from its arms, legs, and mouth.

The 'fight', was short. The older priest died almost immediately, and Raphael was chased through the house, and flung about here and there--the duo's holy water and crosses destroyed and rendered useless. It was only through grabbing a shotgun the family had kept by the door, and getting off one lucky shot that Raphael survived.

This did not kill the demon, however. Only the host, and the demon leapt into Raphael's own body. The priest was barely able to best the creature in the resulting battle of fire and will, but, eventually, the creature subsided and Raphael gained its strength as a Devil Arm.

Raphael's faith in his god is stronger than ever, but his faith in the church has all but vanished. He now works as a freelance demon hunter, often taking cases for free when the victims can not pay. He sees this as nothing but God's work, and God's work should be done freely--but he still needs to eat, and merely prays that God forgives his taking money where it is offered.

Devil Arm Name: Abaddon
Weapon Type: Chains/Other
Element: Fire/Unholy
Description: Black chains wrap about Raphael's forearms and sink into his flesh at his inner elbows, where they can be seen flowing under his skin, over his shoulders. They cross under the skin multiple times over his back and chest before moving through the shoulders again and coming back down the other side, where they come back out his other inner elbow and wrap about the other arm in the same way.
Skills:
Demonic Symbiosis: Abaddon can attach to other metallic weapons that its wielder holds, and transfer its power onto them. This is used primarily with Raphael's twin Glock 21s (sporting 230 grain 45acp bullets). With these pistols this transference of power can be broken down into three levels, depending on how much time is spent transferring energy.
--Level One, Touch of the Beast: This transfers a small amount of demonic energy to a single bullet, similar to weaker charged shots from the game. This takes only a second or two to charge up a single shot for each pistol. Charging longer, but not long enough to reach a higher state increases the power.
--Level Two, Infernal Pain: This infuses a single bullet with enough demonic energy to explode in hellfire on impact. The force is enough to immediately kill weaker demons, as the explosion generally happens within their body--and the resultant force wave can sometimes knock down creatures nearby. This takes nearly a half minute of charging.
--Level Three, Hellfire: Once a bullet has been charged with this much demonic energy it no longer exists as a solid physical thing, and the pistol no longer fires a round, but rather a gout of pure unholy flame. The pure of heart may pass through this fire without injury, but sinners and demons find themselves lit with non-consuming flame--which does no harm to their flesh but burns away their soul in a rather painful manner. Raphael believes that any being slain by this is destroyed entirely, their soul burned from existence and their bodies nothing without it. There are rarely times when Raphael finds time to use this, ability, however, as he must feed demonic energy into his pistols for nearly a full minute to reach this level of power.

Binding of the Beast: Abaddon sinks fully into Raphael's flesh, before bursting out from his chest and back with multiple white hot chains--one for each appendage of the enemy. These chains lash forward and attempt to wrap themselves about the victim, burning into its flesh and holding it in place. This can not be used with any of Abaddon's other abilities.

The Fallen Angel's Fury: Abaddon wraps itself about Raphael's arms and forearms completely before heating up, first turning white hot, and then eventually wreathing in hellfire similar to that fired from his fully charged pistols. In this state each of Raphael's physical blows lick the opponent with hellfire as well as having significantly more impact than a normal punch would have.

Impure Lashes: The most common technique used by Raphael and Abaddon--this is merely representative of Raphael's ability to extend the chains to distances of roughly twenty feet from his arms, and control them as though they were extensions of his body. It comprises a variety of chain fighting techniques. He may also choose to heat them as per the binding of the beast if necessary.

Unhallowed Movement: Abaddon moves into Raphael's body and exits through his back, much as in Binding of the beast, but as sixteen chains, four coils each of four, which form a set of chained spider legs that allow Raphael unnatural speed, as well as the ability to climb walls and cling to ceilings. He may also heat them and/or use them to strike at enemies with the tip of each coil--sharp enough to pierce stone.

The Beast Moves Unseen: Raphael may direct Abaddon into any material which may be melted or is soft enough to move through otherwise (such as sand or dirt). The chains may then flow through such material and attack from unexpected directions. This can not be used with flammable brittle materials (as they would burst into flame or break) or anything too thin to contain the chains (this is only magical in that he may use the heat to make burrowing through certain materials easier).


P.S. Remember who can ban you when you're deciding who can't play.

P.P.S. Konrad's 'guardian' given the size of the sphere, and the speed he said it can move at, would require it to move roughly 105 (actually 104 and some decimal places) miles per hour, or 154 (and some decimal places) feet per second. I'll leave the implications of that, given his other abilities, to you, Toast.
