D'eprave is one of the younger "Ancients". He was not born as close to the beginning of the world as the other ancients, but he still came into being during the age of "loose magic" and the breaking of light and dark into factions which opposed one another. He is perversity, the wielder of corruption. He is all that embodies depravity.
Name: D'eprave
Gender: Male
Age: A young Ancient. He is older than most, but a few generations removed from the worlds creation.
Race: An Ancient of darkness, A Dealer.
Side: Dealers, the side of chaos. He wishes to feed once more on the intoxicating bliss that is mass suffering.
Role:
Dealer's controller; he is the one who makes sure no Dealer ever falls out of line, mainly with only the threat hanging over their heads of what will happen if they do. As a hunter, he obsessively and relentlessly stalks his victim until he claims it. Engaging in many fights, he can feel pain, but rather enjoys it. He is the instiller of sin. Acts as D'elaire's torturer.
Dealer of Sin.
Powers:
D'eprave can make anyone loose their morals and grip on reality by touching his hand charged with magic to their foreheads. However, the effect only lasts a very short while. But for D'eprave, that short while is enough to enjoy the confusion of those who have had a relative or good friend suddenly turn against them. Very creepy. If D'eprave lets them live, they "wake up" and have to live with the guilt of what they did.
Has great tracking skills.
Location: The badlands of Wonderland. His lord's fortress.
Orientation: Straight. He respects no male who cannot match his power. On the other hand, he enjoys females, and the pleasures that come with them.
Status: Single, as he cannot help but indulge in killing his affection off in slow, strange ways.
Crush: None (for now?)
D'eprave is strong and fast. He stands tall, like most Ancients, at 6'5". His green, piercing serpentine eyes make the beholder feel off-balance if looked into for longer than a minute. He has long, wild black hair and a piercing on his lower lip he inflicted himself. He wears dark green clothing in order to blend in with his surroundings. On his coat he has tied the bones of his former lovers.

Personality:
D'eprave has no moral compass, he is not mad, he just does not understand the meaning of "right" and "wrong". He thinks up all sorts of cruel treatments on a daily basis, and takes a liking to carrying them out. His twisted mind can't help but visualize ten ways to kill his victim, as well as ten ways to love them. D'eprave cannot differentiate all that well between foe and friend, and ends up abusing both sides, kept only in check by those with power above him. In all that he does, he brings frightening intensity and focus to. He doesn't know the difference between "good" and 'evil", just that as long as he contributes to fighting against the "Wonderland" he will be able to enjoy his perverse pleasures to his content and grow stronger. He never gets angry, just scarily intense, plotting out what exactly will be his next move.
Likes:
He carries the bones of his former lovers on his chest.
He likes the thrill of the chase; when people run from him.
He can't resist the pleasure of making others hurt, or hurt themselves. He revels in illicit actions.
Dislikes:
Giving affection, and not receiving any back.
The more powerful Dealers who control his "creativity".
He has a dislike towards the card of Diamonds, perhaps because it conforms too much to simply four points.
Hobbies: He likes women, and is placated every time D'esire brings some back. He keeps the other Dealers in line, just to make sure none will dare work for the enemy. He likes experimenting inflicting pain on others.

History:
D'eprave grew up in one of the harshest environments for a child. His mother was mad, and also a Dark Ancient. Sometimes she would say she loved him, at others she would try to strangle him. When his father died in the "Retaking"- the uprising of the cards against the kingdom in darkness- his mother asked him to kill her. Unable to disobey, D'eprave did so, and forfeited any shred of ideals he still clung to. He grew up from then on around the harsh Dealers, learning to fight for his life and gain a good position. Luckily for him, there weren't many Ancients left after the Dealers defeat and banishment, so he was saved from the "purging" that would have come from him being such an unstable Dealer.
