a character in “Synchronicity: Aftermath”, as played by DeathScythe386

Description

Image
"...It's time."




Image
Image
Name || Alistair Faust
"It's the last name you will ever hear before your untimely death."

Age || 22 (before death)
"I don't feel any older nor younger."

Gender || Male
"We just tend to exert more dominance."

Side || Circus
"I founded it, how could I not be in it?"

Corresponding Sin or Virtue || Pride
"Tell me, will you have satisfaction without pride?"

Personality || "If you don't have the power to keep on fighting..."
Being one of the first Entities made by Judgement, Alistair holds the title of Pride higher than no other. Stoic and cold, he is seen as someone who doesn’t take nonsense from anyone, and his eyes are always fixed only on the desire and ambition of the Circus. While he is Pride however, he is a calm individual, decisive and strategic.

While he is the Leader of Circus, Alistair himself is not only wary of the Virtues and Synchronicity- rather, sometimes, some believe that he is also wary of his own colleagues within the Circus, as he is aware that some of them have their own agenda and beliefs. As such, he tends to stay quiet and doesn’t always reveal the biggest plans and the like to even the Circus members themselves.

At the present time, Alistair had heard of Judgement’s choice to make more Entities to replace those who died, and as such he had started his own search for the new Entities to convince them to come back to Circus to fulfill their goal.

Appearance || "Proper charisma and appearance are necessary to show your leadership."
Alistair is a young man, standing at only 5’9” with silver hair styled to the right to cover his eye. His eyes are a rather dull purple, appearing almost gray in hue. He generally wears a standard uniform consisting of a black trench coat, dark trousers and leather boots. His right arm is covered by a glove, however his left arm had been cut off in the past war. Because of that, he had a bionic arm made and the arm is mostly metal, while the hand itself can be replaced with other weapons.

History || "Has it really been two years since then?"
Alistair was reborn as one of the first Entities created by Judgement, and he, along with a few more Entities, decided to seek out those who had the same fate as them, the same abilities as them.

Soon, Alistair began to desire separation from humanity, the liberation of Entities from humans altogether. As his desires conflicted with the Virtue of Humility, they separated and Alistair began recruiting other Entities into his ranks, creating the banner of the Sinner’s Circus to liberate all Entities from humans.

In the war between Synchronicity- the banner of Humility- and the Circus, Alistair himself had to step out and met Humility in battle. The battle raged on until finally, Humility unleashed his Decisive Skill and Alistair lost his left arm in the impact, and in the process Friergate was destroyed. Alistair retreated to the Sky Castle, having his bionic arm made and recovering from the fight.

Insignia (Sin/Virtue only) || A proud red lion, that runs all the way from his shoulder to his hand. It is usually covered by his gloves and trench coat though.

Weapons/Abilities ||
Overview: Alistair, being the Entity of Pride has a balance between using his magic and using weapons. To make up for his magic however, he only has one weapon, and prefers to stay in the Circus’s hideout, the Sky Castle. When in actual battle however, Alistair does not rely on his Decisive Skill, as he is able to handle himself fine on his own.

Weapons:

Drawn Sword – Alistair, despite having qualms about the new Entities using technology rather than magic- as most Entities during his time of the war between Synchronicity and Circus relied on their magic-, owns a plasma sword emitter. When deactive, the sword appears only as a handle, and is usually hidden beneath his coat. When he activates the sword, however, it emits a blue, plasma blade that is known to cut through most known material. The blade, however, has a recharge time and is only active for 5 minutes before requiring recharge. It takes 30 seconds to activate fully.

Bionic Arm – Alistair’s bionic arm, as mentioned, can have the hand part replaced. Most of the time, his hand is mostly in the form of a metallic claw of sorts. While the ends are sharp and with enough force, can pierce through skin, it is mostly used for grabbing and the usual things he has to do with a left hand. However, another option is that he has a hand-mounted beam rifle to connect to his bionic arm. The rifle only has 12 shots and takes approximately 2 minutes before he can fire another.

Abilities:

Unholy Diagram – A barrier that nullifies most physical and magical attacks that hit it-However, the Diagram is one-directional and the directions it is not facing proves to be very crucial blind spots. It takes only 10 seconds to set up.

Unholy Exertion ¬– A compressed form of kinesis, it allows him to push away any form of matter he rests his hand on. The Exertion also allows him to release shadows from within himself to provide himself cover and cause loss of visibility for his opponent. It also covers up his aura so most Entities cannot sense him within the area.

Levitation – While he still very much prefers walking or even vehicles, Alistair’s Levitation allows him to levitate around the field. This is only used so that he can avoid projectiles.

Familiar Creation – Alistair creates familiars, usually in the shape of owls to keep track of certain areas and as messengers. He keeps track of areas where some of the Sins claim to have traces of Entities’ auras, and the familiars themselves look convincing enough. All owls are monitored through some monitors in his hideout.

Decisive Skill || The 10th Crown
"The Sin of Pride is defined as self-righteousness and having a world dedicated to one who thinks himself better than others."
Over the course of 10 days, Alistair terraforms the area affected into a Sky Castle. He rarely uses this Decisive Skill since the Sky Castle is still intact and safe. However, should other Entities somehow manage to bring down the Sky Castle, Alistair will use this ability to create a new one. Alistair's prideful nature and his self-centered attitude manifests in the Sky Castle as he creates a world where he is the one who is the most superior and in control.

"Fire... Destruction as far as the eye could see...

I can hear a myriad of other voices calling out. To whom, I wonder? To their families? Friends? Lovers? I don't know. I stumble as my vision fades for a moment.

It's no use. I feel like I'm suffocating in the smoke. I'm slowly losing my grip on this reality."




New Friergate City. A city in the midst of a great rehabilitation and expansion, aiming to recover after the great fire that ravaged all but little of the people who chose to remain, staying into homes that have been rebuilt for them, trying to piece back their broken lives on their own, or with the sympathy of others. A family passed by the park that was being rebuilt. Their little boy looked on, gazing down on his favorite attraction: a giraffe shaped house where he used to play in. Back then it was colorful, mostly thanks to his and his friends fooling around with the paint. Now, one can't even tell what animal it was with half of it now black. Such was the pain that the survivors had to deal with on a daily basis.

Right. In this city--everyone was a survivor.

"Ugh...where am I?" From within the forest on the outskirts of the city, a lone girl stood up, her vision slowly returning. The first to greet her eyes were the stars above, providing some lighting on an otherwise dark surrounding. "Huh? How did I get here?" She wondered, glancing to her left and right, trying to spot something she can't fully describe. She tries recalling the last incident she remembers.

"Fire...Fire as far as the eyes could see. And then--"

Rustle...

Her thoughts were interrupted by a sound coming from the shrubs. "Who's there?!" She yelled out, not knowing why she had responded with such anger in her voice. It seemed to scare off whatever caused the sound as she soon heard rustling sounds moving away from her, growing more fainter in each succession. "A-Ah! Wait!" She ran after it, hoping to catch up. Oddly enough, she felt her feet was lighter and she was skimming the forest naturally, like she was part of it all along. Her vision isn't really helping properly though.

"Damn...If only I can see well enough--!" She cursed angrily in her mind as she made her way through the darkness, following something with only sounds serving as her guide. Suddenly, flashes of light caught her eye, forcing her to pause a bit. It only lasted for a few seconds but as soon as that thought enter her mind, they started appearing again, immediately fading afterwards. It was small and when she looked closely, they appear to be emerging from where the sounds were coming from. Faint lights and sounds. Not much to lead on but it was better than nothing.

"I'm catching up to it... I can do this!" Resolute, she ran on, not once feeling a little exhausted though she didn't really notice it. Finally, the flickering streams of light were nearing a gap in the forest where light was pouring. This raised her spirits as she ran faster, looking forward to what she'll find out.

Finally, she reached that spot and saw the answer as to why they were only small streaks of light. All this time, what she had been following was a mere rabbit. She stopped exactly at the illuminated area, feeling the need to breathe in after running for so long. "Oh I see... I guess I was stupid to think that there would be someone out here in the middle of the---wha--?"

She turned around as she spoke and was astonished at what she saw in that gap. A towering skyscraper..no, several buildings, some under construction, standing in place of what she remembered to be a city that burst in flames. It may not have looked the same but she remembers the landscape at the very least.

"T-This is Friergate?!!!"

From within the Sky Castle...

Alistair slowly stirred from sleep, groggily opening his silver eyes and glancing around. It seemed that sleep had overtaken him while he was keeping watch on the monitors, trying to find new Entities to no avail. As he moved to sit up from his position, he let out a low groan as he was hit with a splitting headache. He instinctively reached up with his left arm to rub at his head and felt cold metal pressing against his forehead.
"...Has it really been two years?"

Shaking his head, he looked to the monitors again. One of the owls had perched near an area- and if memory served him right, Alistair was sure that there wasn't much vegetation growing around the area when he had checked on it last night. He narrowed his eyes, his weariness dissipating as he furrowed his eyebrows. No tree could grow that fast. Everyone knew that trees could take years to grow to full size. "Unless...someone can command vegetation to grow rapidly..." Intrigued, the Entity of Pride leaned back and started thinking to himself.

No human could do that- obviously, there wasn't even anything invented to make vegetation to grow at a rapid rate-, that was for sure. Alistair hadn't heard of an Entity that had that kind of power. At least, he didn't know any Entities from the previous war that had a power like that. He could only come to one conclusion- that this was probably the doing of a new Entity, although he knew not if Sin or Virtue. As much as he was unacquainted with young and new Entities coming into the world, if he wanted to accomplish the Circus's desire, he had to get some people on his side first.

With that thought in mind, he stood up, replacing his metal claw with the beam rifle. He took up the handle of the Drawn Sword and tucked it into his jacket, and he cloaked himself with Unholy Exertion as he opened a portal to depart from the Sky Castle.

"Nothing will stop the desire of the Circus," he murmured to himself as he descended upon Friergate once more.
