Age: This incarnation has existed for seventeen years. In it's disguises, it appears to be in it's twenties (or comparable for the appropriate race)
Gender: 'Male'
Race: N/A...it takes multiple disguises of various different races
Alignment: Neutral Evil
Power Level: High Tier Medium
Timeline: Mostly medieval
Appearance: When not disguised, The Cent appears to be a humanoid, human sized mannequin with four arms. It's body is a dark brown color but it's usually hidden by the tattered brown cloak it wears. It has four eyes and a and it's teeth appear to be very sharp. On it's chest is the Chain's symbol but it's usually hidden by the cloak. In battle, the cloak is thrown off.
(Here's a pic of the Xent coming out of one of it's more modern disguises:)
Personality: The Xent is a loyal servant, following any orders it's master gives it without question. It has a mind of it's own, allowing it to find the best ways to accomplish its goal. It is intelligent enough to know when it's best to fight and best to run, and it also knows when it should join with others temporarily. It's not a 'nice' being and doesn't speak often.
History: A servant of the cult known as The Chain. It is one of the cult's mythic 'links' (The Merga being another), It was created by Desmonde near the cult's beginnings to begin the process of gathering souls for the ritual that would release the demon lord the group sought to release. It completed its mission rather easily, and went to the site the ritual was to take place. When Owen Worthing launched his assault against the group, the Xent was one of the first to be blasted clear of the ritual site. By the time it was able to return, the battle had ended, Owen gone and Desmonde near death. Once the Chain's leader was 'repaired' he ordered the Xent to begin constructing the Merga's body. Once Desmonde's new weapon was complete, Xent was enhanced and sent on a new mission. It's goal was to amass souls and mystical power for the Chain's next sinister plot. It was also given the sub-mission of destroying Owen Worthin should it encounter the boy. Shortly after acquiring an Anubis Eye Ruby, Xent came into contact with one of Owen's traveling companions. The creature and the warrior fought a long battle, Owen arriving just in time to see the Xent kill his friend and begin eating his body. The psychic attacked, attracting the creature's attention and Xent went into a berserk mode. The battle lasted for awhile, Owen eventually reaching victory when the Anubis Eye Ruby was lost by the Xent and fell into the psion's hands. The power boost it gave him allowed him to shatter the Xent and then collapse a large archway on top of it. Several days later, the Xent had been reconstructed and freed itself from the rubble. It returned to it's master's side and ,after reporting on it's encounter, was sent back out on it's mission.
Powers:
-Reconstruct: If it's ever destroyed, the Xent has the power to piece itself back together. This usually takes a few days if it's a large 'injury'
-Consume: The Xent is able to 'eat' flesh and other biological matter and then convert it into material for itself. This material is used to 'upgrade' the Xent. It can add extra limbs or even change it's frame (ex: taking up a centaur like appearance, or perhaps a dragonic one). These limbs form complete with weapons, but are lost if the Xent needs to Reconstruct.
-Soul Absorb: The Xent is able to see and 'eat' souls. The souls are stored within a small pocket realm within the Xent's body. This pocket realm can be ruptured if the Xent is injured enough, releasing souls.
-False Skin: The Xent's disguise technique. It mystically takes the appearance of a being it's seen before. The skin feels and looks realistic, but other mystics will be able to tell it's false rather easily. The skin is just to help the Xent blend in and to aid in the element of surprise
-Body change: The Xent is able to bend and contort in various unnatural ways such as bending over for a crab-walk mode.
-The Xent's body is made of an unknown mystic element that helps it resist most magics. It's quite tough and it's ability to take punishment was once compared to enchanted armor.
-The Xent is able to sense mystical energies and uses this ability to seek out powerful mystic objects and forces to steal or capture for the Chain.
-Dark Portal: Return!: A cross dimensional spell. It takes about an hour to prepare but once it's cast, it sends one object (the bigger the object, the longer the spell takes to cast) back to Desmonde, the Leader of the Chain. The Xent uses this to sent items it acquires that it believes would be useful to it's master. This spell can only be performed once every five days.
-The Xent's unique body makes it immune to things like poisons, diseases, and corruptions.
-The Xent possesses amazing speed and powerful jumping ability.
Weapons: Various hidden blades and other items (ex: small, single shot cannon is hidden in one of it's legs. One of it's arms can launch like a rocket and retract with it's connected metal rope.) Its blades are coated with a deadly poison that rots those it infects, each of it's body parts can operate if disconnected from one another
Weakness:
-When reconstructing itself, it can only return to it's original contructions. It loses any special modifications it had acquired.
-If given the chance...it will attack allies to further it's goals. This applies to if an ally is injured or if the ally is on the verge of 'death'. The ally will be deemed 'no longer useful, and will either ignore or attack them (depending on the situation) Such is the will of it's master.
-Due to a standing order to kill, it will fly into a berserk rage upon detecting Owen Worthin. It will attack him fiercely, abandoning all other threats and goals until one of them is killed or the psychic escapes.
-It is nearly useless in sand or mud
-It can't swim, but it can walk along the bottom of bodies of water
-It is vulnerable to Gravity based magics and weapons
