Name: Carnous Sih'lethe-Akaido (Yes, another one)
Age: Anywhere from 20- 200 (He lives on a rebirth cycle so it varies.)
Gender: Male
Race: Cholorian(Generic alien, not to worry)/Bone Demon(Yes, another one.)
Alignment: Neutral Good
Power Level: 8
Timeline: He can fit into just about any timeline, but medeival and futuristic are best.
Appearance: He is easily described as a seven-and-a-half foot humaniod lizard. He posseses a body from the neck down of a scaly human, save for sharp claws and inverted knees, and a reptillian head almost resembling an iguana. His most outstading features other than his sapphire scales are the bony plates that are wrapped around his forearms and shins and adorn his thighs chest abdominals and upper arms. These are constantly polished to a high shine to increase their effectiveness.
Personality: He is simply a free spirit, a freelancer, a roamer. It seems like from birth he has always gone wherever the wind lead him, but after the discovery of his little brother, he has taken competition a little more seriously. Cadaervec is the only person he doesn't treat with almost sickening kindness due to the sibling rivalry.
History: Toriji Akaido had always been known as a lecher up until he was married to Reichi and settled down somewhat, but naturally he was unable to prevent a pregnancy over the thousands of years. And so a first son came about the time that Toriji had returned from Heaven to reign as Demon King.
This left little Carnous without a father, but he didn't mind, he never minded anything. He was born of a reptilian mother who died in childbirth and lived among a tightly knit village that acted as his mother and father. He lived a whole lifetime, while troubled by his external differences and extreme speed, relatively care-free.
Upon his death he was about to be buried when his family realized he was decomposing far too rapidly. He turned to dust within hours and all that was left of him was a screaming baby lizard, still with the same strange plates. Naturally his family was concerned, but they understood that this could only be handled once Carnous had returned to a mature age.
Twenty years later a fully-grown Carnous was ready to leave his nesting grounds for the uknown worlds. It was at this time that they told him of his previous life, but this didn't shock him as much as they expected. It seemed that he often had dreams of important times in his old life and he had always felt this wasn't the first time he had lived. He had to find out why though, and he traveld far and long to several powerful mystics on his homeworld. They all said the same thing "Find your father and you will have your answers." One of them was even able to give him the name Toriji Akaido.
The next twenty or so lifetimes he spent looking for his father, Toriji. With each life he kept a diary to be buried with and a family paid to raise him when he was reborn. Finally, he found his father, but found him too late. Toriji had died only a few years prior. He did find out something else though, toriji had another son, Cadaervec.
This Cadaervec had his father's love, and that was something he could now never have. He was angry, truly enraged, for the first time in his life. He could never forgive this Cadaervec, but he would not have the Demon Realm suffer for him or his anger. He simply waited until Cadaervec began work as a judge for the Gods. He then took the chance to thwart everything Cadaervec planned to do.
So he found himself following his younger brother around the cosmos, stopping him from destroying planets he had judged negatively against, and fighting with him at their every crossing. Neither ever won, though, niether wishing for death one or the other would retreat. There would be other times, and they both waited in anticipation for the fight that would decide it all.
Powers:
~Speed- Carnous is tremendously fast, breaking full sprint at a breezy Mach IX. This isn't only physical speed and transfers into this speed of thought, and much to the dismay of any unwary listener, speed of speech and other basic functions. He can slow his overall speed to match those he interacts with, but it takes time and can be overidden by stress or other outside effects.
~Aegis Plates- The bony plates covering him are extremely adept to holding spiritual energy, and he utilizes them in a defensive way. Even without being charged, they deflect physical attacks extremely well, but when charged they are capable of deflecting projectile magics and energy attacks. However, he can only charge one at a time and for only a split second, so he cannot withstand a single sustained blast.
Equipment:
~Claws- He has razor-sharp claws on his ten fingers and six toes. They are very tough, but not entirely indestructible. If one or more are broken, it would take roughly a week to grow back to full length and sharpness.
Weakness: He has no extreme strength or any other attacking prowess. Anything that can't be cut by his claws will stalemate him at best.
