CHARACTER NAME: Ezekiel CANON: Original CANON POINT: The end of August in orientations game timeline. CRAU: Yes - from the orientations universe. AGE: 45 BACKGROUND:
Planet Earth, 2017. The world is as you and I know it, the only difference being that supernatural myths and legends have more truth to them than we realize. These forces exist among us, but after centuries of persecution they hide their true nature. And for those of demonic origin, it's much easier to feed when your prey doesn't know you exist.
In 1972, Ezekiel was born in a community of demons who feed on sex: Females are referred to as Succubi, or a Succubus, and males are Incubi, or an Incubus. Humans have spent centuries trying to warn of the existence of these creatures, and while many stories have been accurate, for the most part nobody really believes they're real. They live in secret and taught Ezekiel how to do the same. Interestingly enough, this community was also Christian (Protestant) and raised Ezekiel with these values (one of the Succubus' insisted she'd even met Jesus, so it only "made sense").
Demonic communities, especially those with ties to feeding on humans, exist all over the world but particularly in highly populated areas. They tend to be highly supportive of each other, because through team-effort they're able to maintain their secrecy from humans as well as retain their history and culture. It's rare that demons live outside of the communities, they're typically social creatures, and children are raised by all of the adults of that community rather than only the birth parents. As such, Ezekiel believes in the "it takes a village" mentality, and enjoys close ties with his fellow demons.
Raised in Hawaii, on island of Maui, he went through the human education system and learned how to blend in (easy for an Incubus, due to their natural 'charm' power). The tourism on the island provided a great opportunity for consequence-free feeding, as weakened humans rarely stayed long enough to raise any local alarms. As an adult, he was encouraged to explore other communities and forge new ties, as he would need them as he grew older - an immortal being couldn't stay in one community forever, as humans would grow suspicious of the fact that he stopped aging. At age eighteen, he relocated to Los Angeles, California. There he carved out a living as a Personal Trainer where he has been encouraging others to live healthy and energetic lives.
A family man at heart, Ezekiel made his first attempt to establish one when he got married at age twenty. She was human, a "feed" that turned into a regular encounter which led to her eventual pregnancy, and so he thought he should marry her. Their marriage lasted two years before she divorced him due to discovering his infidelities (she wasn't aware of him being an Incubus). The demonic community said that it was for the best, that relationships with humans can never last because they're mortal, and helped him obtain full custody of his child. Subsequent relationships ended similarly, though without the trappings of marriage, and as a result he was the father of seven children by age forty-five (keep in mind: these are seven children he knows of and has full or partial custody of, this doesn't include children he wasn't told about). His children are his top priority in life (next to sex), but one day he does hope to have a lasting relationship.
In his mid-twenties he moved to Mythian with his children, with hopes to raise them in an accepting environment with other non-humans. There he became the Physical Education teacher and naturally fit into the role of "community leader" for demons. He felt it was a good move because orphaned/abandoned demons usually ended up there, so he could raise them in a loving atmosphere and teach them to accept themselves. Recently he's been juggling his family and his personal life, such as falling in love with a young hunter named Janus who rejected him and making babies with two separate women.
POWERS:
Charm — He seems to exude a natural "charisma". People tend to feel instantly comfortable with him and/or attracted to him. When he focuses this power, his touch can bring a sense of calm, or provoke arousal.
Dream Walking — While in a "trance" state, he can explore the dreams of others. Humans who sleep deeply are particularly susceptible to this power. Once inside, he can witness, participate in, and influence the dream.
Enthrallment — At the peak of his influence, after being with a person multiple times and after intense manipulation of their dreams, he can make a human his thrall - A slave to his will forever. This is something he's NEVER done, and it's generally frowned upon in the demonic community.
Energy Drain — Perhaps the most important and necessary power of all sex demons, the energy drain or "feed" is how they maintain their health, youth and immortality. Due to his early mastery of this skill, he is able to feed on humans without them feeling anything other than fatigue (and who ISN'T fatigued after sex with Ezekiel?). Feeding to the point of death is frowned upon in the demonic community as well, and is also something he's never done.
Sexual Aura Reading — He can see and "feel" the aroused auras of others, which will provoke his urge to feed. In highly sexually charged situations (such as an orgy), he runs the risk of losing control of himself/his powers.
Supernatural Stamina — Run a marathon? Check. Have multiple orgasms afterwards during sex that lasts all night? Check!
Supernatural Strength — When sexually fed and healthy, he has the strength to lift a car (approximately 2 tons). The longer he goes without a feed, the weaker he becomes.
STARTING EQUIPMENT:
His daemon is his small gold crucifix on a thin gold chain which he named Samueld.
His clothes were torn up in the battle and deserve to be chucked.
EXIT STRATEGY: What was believed to be a direct attack from Sylwia's army turned out to be D.E.S.T.I.N.Y. - a battle the academy wasn't prepared for. Zeke fought on the "front lines" and was always in the heat of things, but he was being torn apart by countless enemies. At one point he blacked out, where someone (a family member or a friend) managed to rescue him from the fray and get him through an escape portal with other evacuees. He awoke on the beach and was rescued by Janus. MORALITY: If Zeke were playing D&D he'd describe himself as Lawful Good, but being a sex demon his set of "laws" sometimes differ from traditional human values. An example of which being his attitude regarding underage sex and incest, which is considered normal and healthy in his community. Despite these differences, he follows most Christian values and believes in being good to yourself and to others, positivity and good health. It takes a lot to make him kill someone, but if you threaten/harm his family he will take you down. WAR ATTITUDES: Zeke goes where he's needed, but he is absolutely a "protector" at heart. Staying close to the community in order to help build and grow it, while at the same time defending it from attackers, is where he's most comfortable being. This isn't to say he'd refuse to go on missions, he absolutely would go if it meant helping others, but for the most part he likes to guard the home base. It worries him a lot when he's away from those who can't defend themselves. INTIMATE RELATIONSHIPS: A very social creature, he was taught at a young age to blend in as best he could. As a result, he can easily make friends and form meaningful relationships with others. He has difficulty when it comes to the sexual aspect of his life, ironically enough, because he craves a committed monogamous relationship and that's impossible for him. On the surface he seems fun, flirty and willing to go to bed with anyone, but inside he's torn, even guilt-ridden, between what he must do to survive and his true desire of only being with one person. COMMUNITY CONTRIBUTIONS: This guy was born to be a part of a community, and please, have you seen his muscles? He fits in great with being the support of any social system, and will do whatever it takes to see others grow and thrive. He follows orders well, but won't hesitate to take charge and get everyone motivated and organized. IT'S TIME TO KICK D.E.S.T.I.N.Y.'S CANDY ASS!
