Xerius

A trickster demon, originating from the fires of the inferno, he is now bound to the mortal realm. What a terrible fate for a demon!

0 · 216 views · located in The Infinite Void

a character in “The Multiverse”, as played by Baron von Bad

Description

Standing at 5'8, and weighing 143lbs, this demon has a rather humanoid appearance, not as monstrous as some of his brothers. Straight maroon hair falls just above his shoulders, his teeth are pointed, and razor sharp. That combined with the fiery orange orbs that are his eyes, give him a slightly jack-o-lantern like appearance. His sharp facial features are covered by an enchanted gray mask, with no eye-holes, yet he can still see perfectly while wearing it.

His build is slender, Xerius' upper body is completely wrapped in enchanted bandages, he wears no shirt. The demon wears simple, loose tan pants and no shoes. His hands are chained together by enchanted iron manacles.

The manacles, bandages, and mask are all enchanted to keep his powers bound. They cannot be removed by devils or demons. Once an item is removed by someone or something, they cannot remove another item. Therefore it requires a separate person for each enchanted item.

Xerius has a mastery over the fires of the inferno, allowing him to summon, control, and shape all things fiery! What fun!

Personality

Xerius was always a trickster, and a little twisted... Freedom is very important to him, which is why he despises that which binds him. Tricking, playing mind games, and manipulating mortals entertains him very much, the weak minded are so easy to use...

So begins...

Xerius's Story

Xerius It was that time again, time to find some drunk, gullible mage to free him. The chain of his manacles clinked together with each step he took, they were oh so uncomfortable. Sure, they were could for choking people, but the restricted movement was just too much! A demon needs freedom! Xerius grumbled to himself as he shoved open the door to Gambit's Bar.

He took a few moments to take in the sight, then spoke to himself. “Yep, same ol' Gambit's.” But was that a good thing or a bad thing? Most people would probably say both... The demon's feet padded softly as he walked further into the bar, looking around for a mage of some sort, or someone who could help him. After that he could find a victim...

Xerius Continued to walk through the room, eventually stopping and sitting down at the bar counter. If he didn't have that damn mask stuck on his face, people would be able to see his scowl. Oh how he hated being restricted, something needed to be done, and fast. The demon observed the room, slowly looking over each and every patron in the bar.

Xerius After simply sitting and observing for much longer than he wished to, the eyes behind his mask landed on Dhaari. The woman looked like she might be able to help. The demon stood up and shuffled over and stood right by her, looking over her shoulder. He simply watched her for a short while, it was always fun to stand behind people and watch them...

Finally the demon spoke. “You.” He simply said, whilst lightly tapping Dhaari on the shoulder.

Xerius Hopped up onto the bar counter, knocking down a few glasses as he did. “Prisoner? Oh no, I just love chains, they make me look so cool!” He rambled sarcastically before sighing. “Yes I'm a prisoner.” The demon looked down at Dhaari, taking in her appearance. “I don't suppose you know any... Magic? If you do maybe we could strike a deal...”

Xerius Rolled his eyes, even though nobody could see it. Nobody ever just stood up, said yes, and freed him with no strings attached. “I'm bound by arcane enchantments, enchantments that are rather... Tricky, for me to handle on my own.” He shifted his position, putting his legs up on the bar counter as well, so that he was laying on the counter completely. More glasses fell as he did this, each one shattering loudly.

“Now tell me, who is this 'Certain God'?” His curiosity was piqued, and the demon might as well try to be freed as soon as possible, even though he wasn't a fan of Gods.

Xerius Cackled shrilly, it took him more than a few moments to regain his composure. “Eat humans? Well I might bite a few, but eat them? Hell no! I'll have you know I donate third degree burns to charities all the time! I'm a saint!” The demon cackled some more, but his laughter was cut short as the Devil's banner floated in front of him.

“What the Hell is this?” He asked, not knowing who sent it or what it was doing here. “People should know there's a difference between devils and demons! It just infuriates me when people just say 'they all look the same to me!', it's terrible I tell you!” Xerius paused for a moment, then coughed, returning his attention to Dhaari. “Anyway...”

Xerius Was rather surprised that Dhaari just promised to free him, it usually wasn't that easy. There was probably a catch hidden somewhere, there always was. But the idea of freedom was great, and he would not pass up this chance. “Why... Thank you. Now how do you plan to free me?” Excitement was in his voice, he was one step closer to freedom!

Xerius Sighed deeply as Alan accused him of being a rebel. “I'm no rebel! I'm a demon, I do not have to serve 'The Devil'! There's a difference between demons and devils, and there are more leaders than just yours! Now go get yourself drunk or something, pick a fight with a devil, not a demon.”

After speaking he reached over the bar counter, fishing around for a bottle or two. It took a short while, but he retrieved to full bottles of vodka. “Take these and go away.” He grumbled, obviously not happy about this intrusion. The demon held out the two bottles for Alan to take, the sooner this was done, the better...

Xerius Shrugged and threw the two bottles over his shoulder, chains clinking with each movement of his arms. He smiled to himself as two more loud crashed were heard behind him, the area behind the bar was littered with broken glass and spilled alcohol, a wonderful safety hazard. “I prefer not to take sides, I walk the path of neutrality. I stand anywhere I wish.”

He looked over to Dhaari, still wondering how she planned to free him. This woman had better follow up on her promise...

Xerius “I don't spend a lot of time back home, so no, I don't help the 'rebels'. And you can't free me from my bonds, no demon nor devil nor any hellish fiend can free me. Now if you will excuse me...” The demon rolled off the counter, quickly standing up and following Dhaari.

Xerius Grinned under his mask, standing right next to Dhaari, as if he felt that if he moved more than two feet away she would disappear. “Well you know, people say fiends aren't very trustworthy. But what do they know?” The demon chuckled, his gaze never drifting from the woman. He followed right behind her into the room, taking a quick look around. “So do you help random demons in bars normally? Or am I just special?”

Xerius Let out a long, low whistle, that was an impressive tattoo. The demon listened intently to every word she said, the thought of her being a High Priestess wasn't very appealing to him, but beggars can't be choosers. True, Xerius did not mean any harm to her specifically, but he did enjoy tormenting a human here and there...

“Well, the thing is... In order for me to help you prove your people's innocence, I need to have my freedom. These bonds do more than just restrict my movement, you know.”

Xerius Looked over at the pack, then back at Dhaari. The demon did not need to eat, he couldn't with the mask on, but alas, that bound him too, and could not be removed. “Well why not intimidate the king, fear is a great motivator! You just need something to demonstrate your people's power...” Xerius chuckled softly at the thought of demonstrating power, that was always fun, oh the things he would do just to be free again!

“I assume none of your people have the ability to show their strength? As you still have not solved your problem...”

Xerius Oh great, they wanted a peaceful solution, those were never fun. “Well maybe you should tell me more about the situation, if you want to do the peaceful approach. I'm telling you though, just a few burns, nothing life threatening, and people will change their tune quite quickly...” The demon began to pace around the room, eager to be free of his bonds, the manacles were far too restrictive for his tastes.

“I assume your people are viewed as virgin sacrificing cultists, or something of the like? Now, is that actually true, or just lies and slander?”

Xerius Sat down cross legged on the floor and listened to Dhaari's story. Once she was finished he thought for a few moments, before speaking. “What a buzzkill... Why did the king believe him? Well, that doesn't matter. You could try to make it look like this Tukli kid worships Satan and eats children... Oh, but wait, you want a peaceful solution don't you?”

Xerius sighed and shook his head. “Listen, in this situation, somebody is probably going to end up getting hurt, just so you know. But it's fine as long as you're not the one who does it! Where is Tukli now, do you know? Does he worship another God now?”

Xerius “Well I'll tell you this idea of mine, once you free me, I'll track down Tukli and have a talk with him. Nobody has to know I'm involved with you, I'm just a demon with power, oh so tempting power...” The demon let out a shrill cackle, but quickly quieted down. “I have a way with words, and actions, when it comes to humans. I'm sure Tukli will see... Reason.” Xerius grinned wickedly under his mask, thankful that the priestess could not see the expression on his face.

Xerius “Will do, Dhaari... Call me Xerius.” He mumbled, clearly unhappy about the fact that the mask did not hide him as well as he had hoped. Xerius would not sleep, he didn't need to sleep. He would just sit for the whole night, watching Dhaari, waiting for the moment he could taste freedom again.

Xerius Was it pretty last night? What did the woman mean by that? “Well I was just watching you the whole night, and on the pretty scale I rate you...” The demon paused, tilting his head slightly, before continuing. “I rate you a three out of five.” With that he stood up, chains clinking together rather loudly. “Now get your ass out of bed, we have work to do, don't we?” This brought a small smile to his hidden face, the demon couldn't wait for what was to come.

Xerius “You don't need to make yourself look pretty, a little messy hair never hurt anyone. And if you're doing it for me, don't bother, you're still a three.” The demon paced about the room, his bare feet padding softly on the floor. “Is there anyway you can free me sooner, or even better, now? Everything would be so much easier if at least my hands were free...” He clenched his fists, obviously frustrated with his imprisonment.

A demon was meant to be free, free as a wildfire! He was not meant to be a chained up animal, oh the people who did this would pay... “Are you ready yet?”

Xerius “You should really just shave your head...” He grumbled, he had spent the whole night just watching the woman sleep! Humans were so boring when they slept, his patience had been worn thin. “Almost a week?! That's a week too long! I mean, these chains are fun and all, good for killing people, but I need my freedom! How am I supposed to make guards burn if I'm bound like this?”

The demon sighed. “We should head out right now, and you should start thinking of a way to free me sooner. The sooner the better for everyone involved...”
