Areli

A construct created by a mad cult, whose impact during creation destroyed said mad cult. Wanders around the world as an overpowered little bird cuddling under any welcoming(?) pair of wings out held his way. 

PERSONALITY

• Cool, unflappable, no-nonsense
• Independent, uncaring, all round impossible guy
• Spoilt and pampered and thoroughly comfy
• Likes to act cute and innocent to fool the newbies
• Quite interested in Arcadia's other winged nonhumans in a vaguely paternalistic way, doesn't give a damn about humans or anything not inappropriately wingful. Only cares about Arcadia for his own continued comfort, and as a "habitat" for his winged buddies/minions
• Is fricken old, has seen wayyyyy too much to care about your bs

POWERS

• Sigil - draws out a rune or set of runes that causes any elemental or magical effect of his choice, no fine control. Can be cast as bolts/blasts or AoE or just location specific effect, can be time delayed or set as traps, small simple runes don't need to actually be drawn and just requires that he focus momentarily on the location he wants them in, a larger sigil has a more powerful/longer duration/wider range of effect. No known upper limit on sigil size
• Rainbow Road - creates a portal connecting to another location, no hard limit on location or number of portals, though preferably he or the other person should know the location he is creating the portal to. As a required secondary power, he can "read" the intended destination off another person
• Small World - able to create miniature worlds/pocket universes, size limited, cannot create anything resembling sentient life, often uses them as storage containers for stuff. Can attach them to objects, such as bags and boxes and even gachapon balls and playing cards, may give them out to his favorite minions
  • Snowglobe - creates a small sphere that is able to capture and contain far larger objects . . . sort of like a pokéball. Many of the "stars" of Arcadia was created through his power, though the planetary bodies were made during Arcadia's initial creation
• Inviolable - protected from destruction or desecration, doesn't need to eat or drink or breathe (but he can if he wants!), still needs to rest occasionally. Also has strong resistance to mental powers and influence. Can usually shrug off even ability bypasses, requires attacks of equal or higher priority to break through his defense
  • Diamond - abuses his inviolability to be invulnerable and strong like superman . . . but this does not extend to his flight. Cannot fly carrying very heavy weights, not much more than his staff, say. Can also be knocked out of the air quite easily but still very difficult to hurt
• Form Shift - able to switch between his human and wingding forms, with the wingding form as default

EQUIPMENT

• Staff - a soulbound staff, not particularly special . . . except that it contains a miniature world in every facet of its gemstones. Has lots of storage components for stuff such as food, potions, servants, etc

COMBAT STYLE 

• Normally just stands there being inviolable while people gawk, upon which he hits them with an elemental attack

WEAKNESSES

• Very unused to actually fighting for himself

NOTES

• Before the humans came he was on the pathway to godhood, mostly because it was the fashionable thing to do for bored and powerful nonhumans at the time and also in the interests of gaining the ability to create sentient life. That had to be put on indefinite hold when the humans happened, but he seems to consider himself as some kind of god in Arcadia . . . 
  • Also gained some abilities from his foray into godhood, namely his inviolability and also even less limitations on the scope of his abilities
• Occasionally when his favored minions are slated for execution by Arcadia, he "saves" them by stuffing them into a pocket dimension and attaching those to his staff
• Likes to occasionally pop by and visit the lower world, mostly to watch his minions at work
• Annoys the pope with his self-assured disdain of the rules, but as Areli is too convenient to lose and too apathetic of the world for his caprices to affect Arcadia, the pope mostly ignores it. Helps that Areli is just his type of cute . . . in appearance, anyway. Personality is a whole 'nother matter
• Likes feathered wings best! Leathery wings are meh, insectoid wings are nyee and fin wings are just ugh, but he likes them a little bit! Better than no wings, anyway
• He is a lazy dumbbutt who hates reading and studying, but can put up with it if someone reads it out to him! Occasionally cuddles up to a winged minion when he has a book he wants read out for him, Amadeus is a particular favorite
• Leonas is another favorite as a rare surviving wingding and Areli's reluctant attendant back when he was trying for godhood, and Areli occasionally pops down to the lower world to visit Leo's cute new form
