Lucius Blackstone

What, you think unicorns aren't evil? Wait til you see where the horn goes.

0 · 594 views · located in Mysteria

a character in “The Fantasy Wars”, as played by Thundergod1020

Description

As a human:
Image
Image
Name: Lucius Angelo Blackstone
Age: 1594
Gender: Male
Species Unicorn
Sexual Orientation: Straight, of course. Not like unicorns breed on good wishes and four-leaf clovers, after all. Then again, tell that to the people who wonder why unicorns are so rare these days... They'll piece the puzzle together.
Relationship status: I currently possess a harem, as male unicorns are hard to come by, and rarely of the straight orientation, and therefore the few of us who AREN'T coltcuddlers are left to spread our genetics as much as possible. The fact that unicorns are considered "hot" thanks to some new storyteller going around talking about pony unicorns(but everything she says is a bloody lie, we only use our horse form when going cross-country, we'd never sacrifice our precious thumbs for anything else).
Hair: Black, as seen in my last painting, seen above.
Eyes: Prismatic
Height: 6'
Weight: 150lb
Clothing Style: Hey, what you see is what you get, Sweetcheeks.
Distinct Markings: Other than the fact my eyes look like freaking DIAMONDS, I have a scar in the shape of a cross under my left eye, which is one of the reasons I'm blind. Another thing of note is that I have twin scars on the tops of my wrists. These are where my horns come out in human form. What, you thought I'd be defenseless?
History: Alright, I'll give you the short and sweet version, since the only thing that really matters is my actions taken in the future. I'm a unicorn. Yeah, that's right. Sadly for you, I'm not the type to prance around and sit by maidens... Well, that depends on how big their rack is. No, I'm the kind of unicorn that gets immortalized as a robot running through the depths of hell with heavy metal in the background. I was born to a loving dame named Risten, she raised me well. Then she got killed off by the bad guy, like in every unoriginal origin story, and I got stuck in the ever-needed revenge plot. Only difference is, I knew it was the basic hero story. That's why I took a new path. After I killed the guy who did it, I took his place in the ranks of the Army, and he wasn't exactly the last guy in my revenge story because he was a slouch.
Basic combat skill/style: As a being of magical nature, I'm already gifted with incredible strength, stamina, and durability. These are accentuated by my boneblades, which I can basically explain best to Offworlders like you as Baraka's blades. I specialize in moving around my opponent and poking at their weaknesses, forcing them into either going defensive, where I can use my coup de grace Death of One Thousand Blades, or to die from blood loss. On undead opponents, I just use my inherent holy magic that comes with being a unicorn. In horse form, I try to trample my foes underhoof(goring gets blood in the eyes.), or use hellfire. Of course, I'm much more inclined to just slip in and stab you while you're asleep...

So begins...

"Why, I'd say a good feather clip would do it for punishment." Guin felt a shiver creep up her spine, and held her arms stiffly in place. She could not imagine what it would be like, precisely because she did not have wings herself, but regardless of what Lucius said she would feel the same.

"If you'll excuse me, I will not watch," she whispered as she stood from her chair, dusting her skirts off without finding the need to. "Please, invite me back when you are done."

She glided over the floor, half way to the soldiers she was making her way to, when she looked over her shoulder at the people behind her. "Oh, and do not tell me you're planning to stay longer than the rest of the day." That was much more than she could handle, but something she would put up with for purposes she knew she must.

Her heart lurched as she was pulled off to the side, panic clear on her face. 'Really now, you all were speaking of the oddest things.. I don't understand how that alone would jeopardize the country!' She cried internally as the Unicorn went on to speak of her punishment. A punishment? She was truly being punished for innocently eavesdropping?
"Yeah, right! Of course it's going to hurt!! What Angel's have you meet?" Alice demanded, her eyes growing wide as blades appeared from his fingertips. "This..This is all..." Alice whipped her gaze around desperately and realized no one was going to come to her aid.
Acting on instinct the Angel took her elbow and jabbed it into Lucius's side before dashing back to the window where she came from. Thankfully the window was left unlocked, making it easier to throw them open and leap out.

Lucius acted faster than she could fly, blinking in a puff of hellfire to right above the eaves of the window and kicking her back in with a swinging kick from the outcropping of stone outside, all traces of good replaced an aura of menace powerful enough to make demons feel uncomfortable as he threw up a dark barrier around the exits to the room an angel could escape from and also kept the valkyrie out. His words, however, were calm and collected, like the eye of a storm. The flame he conjured around his fingers this time was a white, holy fire, proof that he wasn't messing around.
"For your information, I've met several angels, am good friends with Uriel, and PERSONALLY know the Metatron! So when I say a quick wing clipping will be so harmless that you'll just have to walk around for a day or three, that's the extent it'll be! And like I said previously, it's not the action, but the intent that I planned on punishing. Surely, as a being of law and good, you understand that the crime is what is punished, and not the motive?" He worded it like so PRECISELY because it tackled the one issue he'd seen several angels deal with, and had become weaponized by him: their need to choose between themselves or their highly respected rules. He knew she'd become a fallen if she answered herself, due to acting selfish, a great sin, and that she'd have to give in to his wish to basically remove ONE form of transportation for a few days if she responded her responsibilities, which was a win for him anyways.
"And Gwen, I only promised no harm to the enemies I have this morning, so I can not promise anything for this angel." he said before she could take action, his eyes almost glowing in the light of the fire in his hands. This angel had gotten him angry for the first time in years, and this was NOT a feeling he relished.

Guin found herself being pushed along, for some reason following Lucius to see what he would be doing with the angel.

A few moments ago, you didn't care; now, it's as if La Cirque des Rêves has landed on your palace balcony.

She crossed her arms and pushed them against her chest gently, trying to adopt a stance of carelessness, but with a slight side of frustration. That was what she felt at the moment; best not to hide it in this situation, she could tell. Perhaps especially when a life could be in danger, as she noticed that Lucius's patience had seemed to disappear.

"And Gwen, I only promised no harm to the enemies I had this morning, so I cannot promise anything for this angel."

"Talk, talk talk, Lucius. Get to it. Don't speak to me of what you plan to do, for I can only see that delaying this matter any further will cause more trouble than truly necessary."

She sniffed with disdain, and raised her chin slightly, watching Alice with the eyes of a hawk.

The moment Alice flew outside a figure could be seen sitting on the roof. She registered something black resting on her shoulder as well but all she could care about was the fact someone was there. The Angel opened her mouth to cry out when she felt something slam into her stomach, knocking her back in the room. The force of the blow was enough to send the air whooshing out of her, the growing desperation in her words of help stuck in her throat.
She glared up at the Unicorn then as she battled for breath and felt an impossibly heavy aurora cling to him. I was right to be wary before. She thought bitterly, ignoring the subtle burning in her lungs yearning for oxygen. As Lucius spoke she felt herself shrink back as if she were a child being scolded by an elder. But her eyes were mainly focused on his fingers once more and the fire they emitted, noting that is was now white rather than blue.
Suddenly her breath came back all at once and she gasped wildly, almost making her unable to hear the rest of what he was saying. Her heart beat in double overtime making her limbs shaky as she scuttled back a few inches, wanting nothing more than to put space between her and the seething Unicorn. He was absolutely terrifying.
On a final act of desperation Alice flickered her gaze to the blonde haired elven girl and caught the sharp, unrelenting look in her eyes. Balling her hands into fists the Angel pushed herself to her feet and walked over to Lucius, staring him down with every bit of courage she had left in her before she promptly her turned her back to him. She moved her long brown hair aside, exposing her broad, thin feathered wings on her back.
If this was truly necessary then fine, have at it. But she still wanted to maintain a small shred of dignity, even if she lost most of it within the past ten minutes.

Guin whistled softly as Alice pulled her hair to the side, and exposed her wings to the mercy of the unicorn.

"Well, well, Lucius. Looks like you have a play-mate after all." She grinned, unfolding her arms and tossing her braid over her shoulder. "Best do it politely, then."

Guin, as she had earlier declared, turned away from the scene. She glanced over her shoulder, blue eyes palely drawing back for a moment, but turned towards the way she was headed and let go of the matter.

Lucius nodded, then began to trim the flight feathers of the angel's wings, the fire between his fingers not even producing heat as it slid through and made a ragged cut on each feather so that air would become buffeted in any attempt to fly, and thus cause more loss of lift than gain. Even as he trimmed, some feathers fell out, already being replaced by their new counterparts.
"See?" he said calmly, the menace gone as if it had never been there, "Harmless. This is actually how certain angels were punished back in the day, albeit a bit more permanent. And there, I'm done already and you didn't feel a thing!" he continued as he made his final snip and stepped back to admire his handiwork. Her wings looked as if they had saw teeth on the backs, and made her appear more like a being of vengeance rather than law. All in all, quite proud of himself.

Alice suppressed the urge to throw the elven girl a dirty look. She was no playmate, especially to someone like him. As Lucius worked she drew in small, steady breaths. It didn't hurt like she had thought, no, but it was uncomfortable and unnerving all the same. Every feather that fell away felt like she was loosing a part of herself; and she wasn't sure how she felt about that.
An icy breeze washed over her bare boned wings, drawing a harsh shudder from the Angel. "Humiliating." She retorted after his first statement. This was all horribly humiliating, and all this for simply listening in on something she never understood to begin with. Chills raced up her spine and down the skeleton of her wings at the mention of some being more permanent.
Not wanting to push the insane Unicorn any farther Alice said nothing. Keeping her eyes averted to the floor she hurried to hide her wings away. "Agh!" She cried out, pain like no other shooting through what used to be her wings, and back. Alice fell on one knee and grasped the floor for something she didn't know. Slowly she tried again only to be met with another flare of pain. Alice grit her teeth and huffed. She couldn't hide her wings away without her feathers.

Lucius wondered why she was freaking out so much. He'd only trimmed the feathers a little bit, and they were still there on her back, so she must have been having a random fit of dementia.
"Stop whining, I swear to Jehovah, it's like you've never even seen a bird's wings trimmed before!" he said, completely blase about the whole thing. "If your author take five seconds to actually look up wing trimmings, she'd see that only the tips of the feathers are snipped off! So can you please suck it up and let us all get back into character? My own author's gonna have my neck for breaking the fourth wall!" He then went to take a drink from his goblet, but ended up getting some down the wrong pipe, with a coughing fit to follow. Lucius could only raise his hands in anger. "SEE? He's got it out for me now!" he shouted, then took a deep breath. "Just show yourself out the door please, don't call us, we'll call you."

With his author's malice thoroughly sated, Lucius sat back down at the table, acting as if the past bit hadn't happened, but still sounding tired. "So... How's the war been treating you, Gwen? Not as a general, but as a person?"

"If your author take five seconds to actually look up wing trimmings, she'd see that only the tips of the feathers are snipped off! So can you please suck it up and let us all get back into character?"

Guin snorted. She could not help it, and fell over laughing, slapping her thighs in a struggle to breathe. "Shit... Lucius, you've got to stop doing stuff like that!" she wheezed, finally being able to sit up and breathe normally. "I hope your author knows what he's doing... Mine certainly doesn't." She shrugged momentarily, and brushed her hair off of her shoulders, as it had fallen out of the braid in the small struggle for life.

"So... How's the war been treating you, Gwen? Not as a general, but as a person?"

She pondered this for a moment. The truth is but a few words, a lie is but another life.

"Well, let's see... I'm going insane, as my father did for a while, probably toss myself off a cliff soon thinking it's the only way to win the war. Which, of course, would be entirely unbenificial and completely stupid." Guin took her hair, and split it into three strands, starting to braid it again.

"And you? I can only imagine it will be much easier for you, than me." She offered a friendly smile.

Lucius' face suddenly looked aged twenty years, and his relaxed position only made him look old and shriveled, despite his still youthful appearance.
"As a force of good working for the dark, quite well. As a unicorn with several wives, colts, and fillies running around, I'm afraid for this war to end. I've only known fighting and war since I was but a child myself, thanks to the bastard that set me on the path of the anti-hero, so what happens after the war? If we win, I'm set for life as good as a god, once I kill off our general and assume regency." As soon as he mentioned that, he made sure to tack on "I may be evil, but she's insane. Hell, the only reason I let her become general is because our army respects me, but fears her. It's the only way to get that many people working together efficiently. Point being, if our side wins and I let her live, she'd drag the world into a dark age, rather than a new renaissance, like our original intent has been ever since I joined. But if you win, my children would never be able to shake off their father's defeat. They'd be treated like dirt, and even if you issue some edict against their injury, there would always be people who would mistreat them, punishing them for their father's fallacies... Gwen? I'm going to tell you something I pray you NEVER use against me, for it will only make your death sweet for me. I don't fear my death... Never have... But I fear for my children's futures... and that's why I've kept fighting, conniving, and plotting to this day. They mean the world to me, more than any material object in this world.

"But I fear for my children's futures... and that's why I've kept fighting, conniving, and plotting to this day."
Guin froze. She felt the voice in her throat simply disappear, and stared, jaw agape.

She had no right to understand what Lucius could feel. She had no children of her own, besides the lap-harp sitting on her bed still.

Guin felt like she would never understand.

"...I... I'm not sure what to say." She said it plainly, casting her eyes towards the floor.

What is there to say? I can't imagine anything I would be able to form into words would help in any way.

She slowly moved from her sitting position into a kneeling position, pulling a dagger from under her corset, and placing it across her heart as she folded her fist around the hilt.

"I, Guinevere de Lilith a'Roihan, swear it upon you that your children will come to no harm." She took the blade, quickly slicing it across her wrist, and held it up to shower the floor with crimson droplets, all without moving her head. "He who does harm them, will face the blood consequences."

She would not see an innocent harmed for the crimes of their parents. Regardless of the means or the needs. Regardless of who that parent was.

Lucius smiled gently at her little oath, especially since he'd just pointed out that no edict could save them from the jeers of their fellows if he lost, and so had essentially sworn either her defeat or her own blood consequences. Of course, he knew it would be irrelevant, seeing as his children were of a large enough amount and of such varying ages that any of his eldest three children(among them one Lucius could feel would grow more powerful than he) alone could easily fend off anybody that was thrown at them. He'd made sure of that when they'd been fillies themselves. So, making sure his smile seemed properly small, Lucius nodded to her actions, his half-lidded eyes sparkling as he did so.
"Thank you. Your actions do you justice. Again, it's a shame we fight on separate sides." he said, raising his drink in the air before gulping it down, the poison of the alcohol being purified as it flowed down his throat, ending up as flavored water by the time it reached his stomach. He hated not being able to get drunk. It made celebrations feel that much more awkward.

"Thank you. Your actions do you justice. Again, it's a shame we fight on seperate sides."

Guin smiled weakly. "I cannot imagine what words will mean to you from the general of the other side... Whoever wins, I cannot imagine what will happen to your children. Know, though, as long as this war wages, I will not see them harmed." She waved around herself idly, and then tore a scrap of cloth off her skirt, tying it across her wrist to catch the blood.

Still not having children.

She grasped a goblet for herself, tipping her head back, and feeling the bubbles rush down her throat in a gentle cascade.

"To the Gods. May the best man win." She reached her glass forward, in a gesture of fairness, and a toast to Lucius.

Alice narrowed her eyes and tossed a spiteful glare towards Lucius. "Well excuse me, but this is actually really uncomfortable. You insane unicorn..and tell your author to calm down. My author had the awful luck of misunderstanding. Feather trimming.." She muttered under her breath before following his advice and leaving the room, not wanting to be anyone near him. If there was one person she hated, any person at all, it was him.
As she left the room her mind skittered back to the woman she saw earlier on the roof. Who was she? She mused silently as she walked out, debating whether or not to go find her. She was the only person who didn't think she was a complete weakling or hated her. She didn't know her to begin with, which made it all the better.

Lucius drank to Gwen's offer, then blinked as his eyes flashed azure.
"Well, Gwen, I'd love to stick around for longer, but my Yngve's-trying-to-do-things-without-me sense is tingling, and so are the wards I put up whenever she tries promoting people without me. It was a pleasure meeting you off the battlefield, but I do hope you remember that I leave as an enemy, and nothing more. However, I WILL leave you a second gift past the fairy-apple, as thanks for your oath." As he spoke, Lucius pulled an ornate golden ring from his index finger and placed it into the palm of his hand. From there, he made a twisting movement with his other hand, pulling the metal into a new shape, stretching the ring until it was a necklace, with Lucius' family crest of two herons crossing their necks resting on a small medal on the chain. Lucius continued as he handed the jewelry to Gwen. "A gift not of tradition, but of my free choice. Give it a kiss if you ever need my help. You have one use, though. Take care, and may our final meeting be at crossed blades!" he smiled, then took two steps back and became a unicorn again, the sense of doom reappearing as he galloped towards the window and leapt, disappearing into the night with a puff of hellfire once again, his laughter the only thing left as it echoed in the hall.

Yngve had barely appointed the guard to Logistics when Lucius poked his head in, human-looking again. "Whatever she just promoted you for, Aloysius, don't start celebrating yet. The position?" he said, now entering with straight posture and jovial expression. The soldier relaxed, Lucius tended to have that effect on the soldiers of the army, who he took the time to know by their names and drink with them, as he'd been taught by the first General. It is one thing to rule and command with terror. It is another entirely to win your army's devotion.

"Sir, the General has promoted me to Logistics Officer." Lucius smiled at that.

"Perfect, we needed one of those. And I always tell you, sir is for the battlefield, call me anything but that here. I take it you haven't lost your knack for numbers, the way you always beat me at Nine Kings?" he said, his air of doom and despair actually making him seem like a beacon of light in the gloom with his tone and actions. Aloysius shook his head, letting his own posture relax a bit in Lucius' prescence.

"I'm sure this will be a bit easier than Nine Kings. At least I won't have to worry about you as an opponent. You're getting too good at that game, Luce. Also, I always wondered, how do you play if you're blind?" Lucius just smiled and waved a finger in the air.

"Come now, Aloysius, if I gave that away, it'd take all the fun out of you guessing! But we're being rude to the General. You get to work on that Logistics stuff, I'll talk with her." As the soldier walked off, Lucius turned to Yngve, his voice too saccharine for it to even think of sounding nice. "Yngve, what do you think you're doing? I spent six hours today going through soldiers for that position, ON TOP OF my usual work. You think I do less around here? I have over eight centuries on you in the forms and files department. I can do all my paperwork in time it take you to do five pages!" Lucius stopped himself, took a deep breath, and laughed, the warmth in his voice back. "I'm actually surprised you haven't made yourself a spell for organization and signing yet. Took me about an hour to make one, and I'm pretty sure it's saved me a century's worth of time! Also, before I forget and you ask where I was, tonight was my 1000th anniversary with Cecilia, you know her, green eyes, red hair, unicorn from the waist-down, and so I went to visit Gwen and mock her before I came back to spend the rest of the night off somewhere private with Cecilia. All in all, a pretty productive night, seeing as I found out I can teleport past their castle defenses. Pretty sure anyone else would die, though. Those wards are hell to break past, pun intended. Plus, they'll have to change castles now, meaning resources wasted and time spent doing things other than leading. Well, that was my night, how'd yours go?"

Delphine was relaxing against the wall, kicking her legs out, and looking up at Khasten. The winged steed was impatiently rubbing his hooves against the ground. She made a face, sticking out her tongue and looking back out across the balcony. "Laugh all you want. I'm still worried, Khas... I don't know where to go any more."

She heard someone walking, and looked up, trying to see who it was. "Who walks across these halls?"

"However, I WILL leave you a second gift past the fairy-apple, as thanks for your oath."

Guin stared idly at the necklace as he handed it to her. She held it in her palm, gracefully thumbing the emblem, before watching him ride away.

"...Thank you." I have one use. Best make that one good...but... When to use it? I forsee no circumstances.

She gently lifted it up, placing it around her neck, and looked around herself once more. It seemed that the halls had become much...emptier, with the disappearance of the unicorn. Guin shrugged, and sat down, not knowing what else to do.

Alice quickly knelt in front of her, reaching her hands out to comfort her before her words stopped her. "Please, do not cry." She murmured, her heart saddening at the sight of her tears - even if they were ones of joy. The light sound of wings beating against the night sky had her looking up to meet the gaze of the black Pegasuses. But she quickly broke eye contact at the woman's question. Her expression fell slightly in sympathy and again she felt the urge to reach out and comfort her.
"I'm sorry," She whispered for what felt like the umpteenth time that night. "I wouldn't be able to tell you where it is. But I could take you there myself," As she spoke she placed her hand below her ribcage, curling her hand over it. "it's in my instincts to know where it's located. But.." Her voice trailed off on a hesitant, disbelieving note. "I won't be able to go back for days. Lucius removed my flying feathers so I'm trapped here until they fully grow back." She explained quietly, her green, brown eyes apologetic.
