Are you scopophobic?

Jericho takes the "too many eyes" approach to angelic anatomy. ​Some​ of his images have far too many eyes. Those images have a custom warning on them.​​​

Profile


An eldritch mass of wings, tentacles, and eyes, Jericho prefers to take the mundane form of a swan - a species he claims to have invented. He can't verify that, but then, no-one can prove he didn't. (Furthermore, the duck is apparently a bad joke someone once played on him. He refuses to speak about geese, and gets very upset if anyone brings them up.)

Jericho speaks all languages known and unknown, including a long-forgotten language which mortals find equally horrific and hypnotic. He speaks it rarely; but when he does, souls open and gates crumble.

Claiming to be of peak physical condition for his kind (a matter he will not elaborate on), Jericho is capable of incredible bursts of speed and pretty shocking feats of acrobatics. He tires quickly, and often in the most dramatic way possible.

He has quite literally no sense of time, and can arrive at a planned event years late - or early. Similarly, it has been said that Jericho has no sense of fashion. This isn't true; his sense of fashion is quite distinct, and quite distinctly his.

As a result of his poor sense of time, Jericho's language is...quite colourful, and at times hard to follow. He's picked up centuries of colloquialisms and slang, and he's going to use them. All of them. At once. Sometimes in a single sentence.

The pupils on his open wings have been seen to slide across their blue sclera, watching wryly as people pass by. If asked about this, Jericho will close his wings and insist you are imagining things. Of course you are. That's not where eyes go. An illusion caused by the shape of his feathers, or somesuch.

Ah, but those eyes do open further, and, as it transpires, Jericho does have more than just that one extra pair. In fact, he has six pairs of eyes, which when properly open begin to defy most known laws of physics and manifest....some rather beautiful shapes.

Don't look into them.

No, don't.

Jericho feeds on the potential lifespan of mortals. To look into his eyes is to be consumed, albeit rather slowly. He will consume your potential at the same rate at which you would experience it - meaning, essentially, that to look into his eyes is to age twice as fast. You won't really notice. You won't even feel it. But the longer you look...the more you age.

So, to summarise:
