Physical Description: Tempus looks like a floating, almost mechanical humanoid with a rotating gear atop his head and no facial features – well, eyes, but they’re blank and almost mask-like. He dresses almost exclusively in shades of blue and grey.
Personality: Tempus is logical and precise to an almost absurd degree. Holding no room for emotion and an obsession with an ordered universe, Tempus does not consider himself to have relations, friendship or otherwise, of any kind. He is not, however, rude when he does not have to be, and is willing to answer the questions of those who ask so long as they would not disrupt the flow of time.
History: Tempus is an agent of the Great Clock, working to ensure the proper flow of time in all ten Spacetime dimensions (yes, yes, alternate dimensions mean there are more than ten dimensions, blah blah… it’s a difficult concept). His specialty is eliminating immortals from the timeline, as they disrupt the cycle of life and death. Unwilling to take a life himself, he works to find the immortals’ weaknesses, exploit them, and kill them off so that time can be spared longer from eventual entropy. His current project is the elimination of immortals in this dimension – not that he’s being rude or standoffish about it. He’s still put at odds with even the mortals of this dimension, though, due to not differentiating between immortal heroes and immortal baddies.
Equipment: Tempus wields a sword called Clock of the Hours, which exists in multiple spacetime dimensions at once and is capable of cutting that which cannot be cut.
Abilities: Tempus has control over time and space and uses it quite freely to transport himself and others across time. He can also freeze time or heal wounds by “rewinding” them.
Other: Tempus follows a strict, self-placed code preventing him from killing mortals, so no matter how badly he is in danger, or how much a mortal pisses him off, he will never knowingly and willingly slay one.
