Obsidian Falcon

Page history last edited by Zuriel 14 years, 4 months ago

The Obsidian Falcon of the Endless Void

         Terrifyingly white skin dominates Obsidian Falcon's visage. His complexion is almost ghostly marking him almost immediately as an albino. Long, perfectly straight white hair flows down to about chin level which frames his countenance and adds to it another level of eerieness. Though perhaps the weirdest of all his attributes are his red eyes, which stand in stark contrast to his white hair and skin. Overall, while haunting, he's not scary though he's not particularly handsome either.

         Obsidian Falcon wears over his forehead a pair of goggles, for what purpose though is unknown. He is clothed in the garments of a physician. A long, white silken coat covers most of his body and more often than not is splattered with blood from his experiments. His trousers are likewise white and utilitarian, designed not to hinder the necrosurgeon's mobility in the slightest. Finally, a pair of white, leather boots cover his feet, their laces dangling back and forth.

         While at first glance Falcon seems unarmed, it soon becomes apparent that he is not. Sprouting from his back are four steel chains with wicked, razor sharp barbs at the end which writhe and wriggle malevolently. His hands, though empty have the callouses of a martial artist and seem as though they can punch a hole clear through a thick piece of wood. All in all, he seems well suited to defending himself.

 

     The Obsidian Falcon of the Endless Void appeared in the Hundred Kingdoms area as of RY 771 during Descending Earth.  Little is known about him other than he is an accomplished surgeon from Sijan--though he will deny ever being a Sijanese mortician.  Those more in tune with the Underworld will know him to be a deathknight of the Walker in Darkness and one of his foremost necrosurgeons.  The Obsidian Falcon has written a few texts on necrosurgery and is considered a leader and innovator in his field, believing it to be the science of the future with his motto, "Just as the imagination is limitless, so too are the possibilities of necrosurgery."  To date, he's seemed extremely polite, almost courtly and not just a bit charismatic.  One thing he hasn't seemed is hostile, he has yet to ever raise a hostile finger against someone and if asked he will assure people that it is not his way to engage in fisticuffs--too uncouthe.  Whether that stays as it is or changes is yet to be seen.  One thing is for certain, he practices what he preaches.  Lately he has unveiled a Mother of Suffering war machine for Stilled Silence's campaigns.  He insists it's but a mere bagatelle and that future creations will be much more effective and terrifying.  It was mostly a demonstration of the principles behind necrosurgery for the Twilight Rose's benefit.  Having mastered his Essence, Obsidian Falcon is seeking to perfect his art.  For the time being he's making do by making large quantities of coil 5 and lower monstrosities for his dread liege's favoured servant: Stilled Silence.

     In Season of Wood RY 771 Obsidian Falcon was captured by Philokrates of Great Forks.  For a full week Philokrates questioned Obsidian Falcon about his capabilities and those of Walker in Darkness's armies.  Falcon obliged for the most part, sadly his knowledge was lacking as he spends most of his time inside his laboratory.  However, Falcon found out what he set out to do in the first place, he found Philokrates's weakness: infighting.  Falcon laments not being more proficient at infighting as he might have been able to take on Philokrates effectively if he was a capable fighter.  At least he left with his life.

     Having mastered the art of Void Circle Necromancy, Obsidian Falcon was responsible for the Blood Monsoon spell that encompassed part of Denandsor, but more importantly he was instrumental in having a shadowlands engulf the entire 200 mile radius around the city.  Although if asked, he'll say he's far from an accomplished necromancer and has much to learn.  Lately, he's been spotted with a large suitcase which sprouts legs from underneath and follows him faithfully like a puppy.  Some people report that The Luggage, as Falcon terms it, routinely eats the hands of would be pickpockets and safeguards the necromancer wherever he goes.  However, his crowning achievement so far is the forging of Soul Mirror, having gifted it to Stilled Silence.  Lately he's been seen with Peleps Kali a lot, having taken her in as a sort of pet project in necrosurgery.  He wants to modify her to become a monster unlike any seen in Creation.  However, she was abducted by an Infernal.

     His latest escapade involved destroying Longinus's College for the Occult, shattering the manse, slaying the Solar and scattering the students to the five winds.  This was done at the request of his Liege, though he took great pleasure in it.  Of course, this was overshadowed by Stilled Silence's destruction of Chronopolis's "indestructible" Infinite Spiral.  Lately he's been in Denandsor building and summoning creatures including the hekatonkhire Loras, the Death Sun and the Singers.  Likewise, he went to Ti'kal and procured ten virgin slave girls as well as the Lunar Ba'lam.  What nefarious purpose he holds is yet to be revealed, but no doubt it shall be grand.
