In the Empire of Esceolor, there reigned a mighty Emperor, and he ruled with his Empress, they reigned well for many years and acquired many countries and land for their Empire. Everything was going well, that was until the Emperor got terribly ill and the passing of the Empress. Everything seemed to go downhill from there. It was well talked about amongst the commoners, that the Emperor was losing his mind. Taxes were higher than ever, more strict and unnecessary rules, and not to mention there was times of epidemic and famine and no one cared to help the commoners. Riots and chaos were breaking out because of the novels hiding behind their well protected castles and behind their wealth and influence. That was until a new Court Jester was assigned, a foreign youth, and he was handsome and talented, many question why such a young person would be close to the Emperor, but no one can deny that once he was installed things began to change a bit. Some of the strict laws replaced, and the people fed and given medicine for the famine and epidemic, more money was going into the education and welfare of the people and nation. Not to mention more trade lines and relationships between countries were open.

Kobeni Hersey Benni'o

≫ ──── ≪•◦ ❈ ◦•≫ ──── ≪

Social Status: Nobility

Reputation:

Kobeni rep is as strange as eating apple slices with your toes. Sure you could understand it, but truthfully you don't think it's rather normal. Kobeni is one of those pure-hearted bastards who lost their smile a long time ago, the time to smile could be used to cut down his enemies and impress the Royals enough to valid his life like his father says " Without their validation, you're just like your mother. A useless tool, until needed ". So Kobeni like anyone else closed off his heart and opened his sword to anyone willing to die by his hands. So, in short. He's the guy who fights for the royals until their validation literally kills him.

[ For childhood friends: he was known as the child who couldn't play with the others. The child had to watch his friends enjoy the rain since he was too busy training.

Rank: Captain Royal Guard

Desired Rank: Father/ Family man

Appearance:

Kobeni has never been so low before, a time where he was once smiling, once laughing now aged poorly. His eyes were shadowed by dark underlining, his green summertime gazes now a dark tempestuous hateful glare. His perfect childish face is covered in three scars--two of which touch each other as if trying to comfort one another. The other on his right cheek, as though hiding from public views.

Darkish blue/black, long hair tight in a ponytail reveals a thin, anguished face. Hollow green eyes set delicately within their sockets, watch fondly over the homes they've defended for so long. This is the face of our beloved Kobeni, a true man among boys. He stands tall ( 6'1) among others, despite his bulky frame. There's something incomprehensible about him, perhaps it's his awkward walking as though someone took his kneecaps, or perhaps it's simply a feeling of indifference. But nonetheless, people tend to treat him like family, while making up bigger stories about him. Scars reached from just under the right eye, running towards his upper lip, and ending on his right cheek leaving a painful burden of concealed skills. Kobeni doesn't value his good looks like everyone else, he doesn't trust them to get him anywhere--his battle skills and murderous intentions are his money maker, so even if his greenish dull expressionless eyes are deep in thought while you try to speak to him, he doesn't look at himself as such a beauty or someone who could get a simple kiss just by asking. So compliments on his looks go unnoticed.

Notice how strange his face seems when he tries to smile. A glint of confusion. Kobeni doesn't smile. He's one of many who has lost that ability over time, and over the course of his life; he finally understands that happiness comes at a price. A price his face paid for.

Kobeni toning is much like brown chocolate, the rich caramel kind. The kind where it drips from your lips onto your shirt. But as stated before, Kobeni's looks don't get him as far as a friendly hug, he depends mainly on the battle scars his father gave him( Most of them were his enemies). His father allowed his face to be....unloveable; which Kobeni believes( Even if his fans say otherwise) makes it hard to love him.

Never take Kobeni drinking. Although he's man enough now to take on larger threats such as war, this man can't hold his drinks. He'll become a slurring, drunken, flirty-looking version of Kobeni we would fear. When drunk, his hair becomes wild, his eyes become lazy yet with a flirty motive, and his professional stance becomes a slob mess--it's like he jumps from 25 to 18, in a flash. Beware. you might get a whole different version of him.

Detailed Personality:

Quiet yet deadly > Mature > Slightly clueless > His trust is to be earned, not given > A bastard sometimes > Not so crazy for love > Feminine looks > Easily misgendered as a bulky woman with a tempter > Hateful toward anyone against the Royals > Changing > Mothers death changed him for the worst > Assumes everyone hates him or has a distasteful thought about him > Child-like mind when it comes to " crushes " > Sweet > Kind > Fleeting hope

No one truly knows Kobeni, for the longest--everyone just addressed him as the Demon Lord, yet proving he's reliable and determined came in the long run. When names are needed, don't expect Kobeni to care. You could call him the bastard's sperm and still, he'll come swinging his sword for you. Of course, he's also inspirational, tolerant, and idealistic, but far less vigorously and often mixed with being a thug as well. His dependability though is what he's often respected for; a well-known respected person who lacks the knowledge for this. Nobody's perfect of course and Kobeni knows this, he might be an unstoppable force with a hunger for his enemy's blood...well that's the issue. The taste and touch of his enemies' blood drive him insane--he'll rather bathe in their blood than take an actual bath. In his own saying " It's much better than making out with a servant in the garden".

His laborious character and solipsistic essence do cause plenty of disagreement on often personal levels. There's plenty to say about Kobeni, just don't let him hear the rumors. The reality of it is that he's vindictive and complicated, such as his hunger for a lot of things. That's without even mentioning he's also haunting, furious, and antagonistic, but at the very least they're countered somewhat by being humorous as well. Yet the chance to show it never comes to light. Any healthy affinity is made exceedingly problematic because of this and his apathetic personality. As sad as it is though, he's genuine and disciplined even if in small doses. He wouldn't dare speak out of line, the fear of his father's hand haunts him to this day.

But as a child, Kobeni was the watcher--he would only dream of playing in the rain, in the mud, and coming inside only to hear his mother cry out for his father to bathe the child. But instead, he counted his prison days and training. Training to be someone he hated; training to be just like his respected yet hated father. Someone who would rather watch the world burn down, a world that should and will always know pain. Kobeni didn't mind living in this world, he didn't care as long as he felt the freedom breeze against his brownish skin. So instead of having a childish trait to his broken mind; he developed a hateful glare onto the world. His warrior mindset could be easily taken as being unsullied.

Kobeni is his mother's future, taking on his mother's kind and naive traits while balancing out his father's undomesticated beast. It never crossed this man's mind how a sweet, lady came to bear and carry such a demon's offspring. It would open too many questions. But anyway.

Hobbies & Talents:

Kobeni is really good( And enjoys it)at killing for the Royals. It's a sport to him, a sport he might enjoy--but secretly hates because it reminds him of his late father who would bring a 10-year-old to watch him murder people who have disobeyed the Royals. The sight of a headless man will never cease to make Kobeni fearfully smile.

His hobbies include stalking the Royals or being slightly weird speaking in his native tongue. Kobeni has no true hobbies, help him.

Family:

Grand Royal Guard Vohkinne: This sick fuck. Who brings a child to a slaughter feast? Who tells a mere BOY that he's no longer a child, no longer a boy once he is born? This handsome sicko was once...no...is a monster. Both in the battle and outside his status. This man built his family name on tears, sweat, and blood. And for what? To be killed by his own son, to be the cause of his own wife's death. To have everything at the start only to lose it because he couldn't be a loving father. But he got what he wanted, he got Kobeni to be the very thing he was...so let Vohkinne's death haunt you.

Lady Zitkala: You sweet bitch. How could you marry such a man? Was it his looks? His desire to have a family, or was it because he held status? No. You weren't like that; you believed that love could change even the most dangerous beast. Now, look at you, bleeding to death. Oh, wait, no. You're already dead. You were such a lady, a lady with morals. Still are, but those morals got you killed. You had everything, a family, a single child, and a husband who would kill for you--but you didn't notice the signs; the child was damaged, broken, and lost. Your words still plague Kobeni:

" Oh look your first friend "

Relationship Status: His body count is ungodly for a man who is " lonely "

Significant Other: Who?

Crush: Probably going to die alone.

Exe(s): Trisha ( Those who know. Know)

Affiliations:

Other: Thunderbird

Regal and well-rounded, these are perhaps the two most obvious traits that one may pick up by glimpsing at Azti. She presents herself like a lady, her posture always upright and her manners exceptional. Why, she is the perfect epitome of elegance and grace, that is, until she opens her mouth. The woman swiftly converts from polished to sharp, for she is known to form her words carefully with such precision, that it is difficult not to be persuaded by them. Azti seems to always know what to say to please others. She knows how to pick and choose certain parts of her ideas to make them sound appealing to an individual. When that doesn't work, she becomes manipulative, and when that doesn't work, she strikes deals. Azti is good at bartering, weather it involve something as insignificant as trinkets, or something as broad as politics. Regardless, she always figures out a way to win.

Due to her more.. stoic persona, Azti seems difficult to please. She tends to be unreadable. One may never know if she adores something, or absolutely despises it for she always remains unfazed. Some may consider her cold or calloused for this reason. At times, she may even be considered critical due to her lack of emotions. However, it is simply how Azti always was. Her emotions are unknown, her thoughts unreadable, and her actions unpredictable. Regardless of the situation, nobody ever seems to know Azti's true intentions or feelings.

When it comes to others, however, that's an entirely different story. Whilst she is reserved when it comes to herself, towards others, the woman is rather charismatic and social. Often the center of attention at social gatherings, Azti seems to always have a captive audience. She is good at words, and is therefore good at conversing. She adds in just enough to keep individuals around and intrigued. She is also fairly good at befriending others, though it is simply due to the fact that she knows what to say. That, and she is observant. Besides, one can never have too many friends. The more allies, the better.

Azti has an eerie calmness to her. She has never been one to throw outbursts and tantrums. The only time one may see her grow agitated is when her opinions are dismissed. Besides that, she is an overall mature and serene individual. She is also commonly known to be generous, often sharing her possessions and wealth with others. When one thanks her, she simply brushes it off, for Azti dislikes being fawned over and showered with attention for a minuscule action.
