In Depth


♱ Born into a rich family in southern Italy. Lost his mother early in life, the rest of the family never accepted him and he was sold to pay off a debt. Later on lived in Venice until he lost his soul and got turned into a demon in the underworld. Currently serves Hell as its gatekeeper and keeps a track of incoming and departing souls.

♱ Lives a busy life, filled with work and pleasure. The term "Work hard, play hard" might as well have been invented by him.

♱ Wholly sees humans as his playthings, takes huge enjoyment in small trickery and manipulation to get his way. He's not one to form deep bonds, but it's not entirely unheard of to actually gain the demon's trust and sincerity, tho it requires time and effort. Has more respect towards fellow demonic creatures, but also finds them less interesting than mortals.

♱ Attracted towards beauty in women and power in men. However dislikes to see weakness especially in men, but also finds it repulsive to see strong, wealthy individuals showing off. Despite that, drawn towards both types and is easily tempted by opportunities.

♱ A dealmaker. If you have the goods, he has the right service; be it something simple or all the way to bringing back a deceased loved one's soul.

♱ A shapeshifter. Can take on almost any kind of form and shape his looks to his liking. Prefers his demonic good looks, but has also been seen to use the forms that of a deer and a huge black raven. Shifting his shape does use up a portion of his strength, depending how big the change is.

♱ Possessess a powerful aura that can make humans feel exceptionally successful in their endeavors. May cause mild symptoms of withdrawal/depression if deprived off it after spending a lot of time in the gatekeeper's presence.

♱ Excels in dark magic; exceptionally strong in his own realm.


Human appearance


Reaching as high as 260cm (8.5ft), the demon usually ends up being the tallest of his companions. He often adjusts his height to match his company, either to make them feel intimidated or in power over him for his own amusement. His hair easily reaches his hips and it is kept straight and untangled. Often uses magic to hide his scars in his humane form, can also hide his thorns if wishes. Horns are usually visible, unless visiting the human world. His skin is of ivory hue and pale to the eye. Physique is toned yet lean, a perfect mixture of masculinity and femininity. Has the Naberius sigil tattooed on his neck.

"Adorned in red thorns with dark hair and fur, a menace to the eyes, as if the earth had spoken the words 'embody a beast so dark his foes know nothing shall become them but hell.'"
