~Character Info~

"Open your heart and embrace the darkness."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Name ~ : Lexaeus

Age ~ : Late Thirties

Birthplace ~ : The Radiant Garden

Gender ~ : Male

Race ~ : Nobody

Special Class ~ : None

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~Appearance~

""When light loses sight of its path... we may find use for the dark.""

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Physical appearance ~ : The Silent Hero

A huge man with a wide frame of block-like muscles, Lexaeus certainly stands out in a crowd by his sheer amount of presence alone. The Nobody bears an flat, angular chin to match his straight, wide face. His brown hair is smooth leading away from the Hero's face but ends in wild strands pointing in many directions from the back of his head.

Clothing/Accessories ~ : Lexaeus still wears the black coat that was uniform to all members of Organization XIII. Larger than that of the others to match his bulky form it retains the same leathery fabric and simple zipper and hood design. He makes great use of the coat's ability to protect one from the very darkness they wield, as well as to remain undetectable from others seeking his darkness.

~Personality~

"..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alignment ~ : Evil

Behavior ~ : Lexaeus' title is not an ironic one. The Silent Hero rarely speaks and saves the times he does for only the most important words. This habit adds great weight to almost anything the Nobody says due to its implied severity, thus mingling with his unmatched physical stature to make him a powerful potential leader. Certainly when he speaks, others will tend to listen. They may even offer him more information of their own than normal, just hoping to incite a response. Lexaeus has a powerful scientific mind to match his warrior body so such attempts are rarely disappointing in result.

Despite his life as a scientist Aeleus was perhaps a fighter at "heart". Lexaeus will not hesitate to use force when necessary or if it will result in a faster desired result without loss of necessary details. The man is far from a simple brute, though. In the midst of battle he will always observe what he must and be wary of not losing his true goal. His adept nature as a schemer and strategist belie the geomancer's physical characteristics. It is with his mind that Lexaeus also harbours one last tie to his former persona as Aeleus, a fondness for puzzles of all kinds.

Number V of the former Organization XIII is a willing follower of the one who gave him that number, Xemnas. He understands that seeking to achieve anything for himself as a Nobody, whether it be a heart or something else, will almost always ultimately end in vain without the power and mind of the Superior. To call him a mindless slave to number one would be a misunderstanding of the situation but his loyalty remains unfazed by failure regardless. Were Lexaeus capable of true respect then Xehanort's Nobody would be the one to have it. He also shares a mutual respect with Zexion, the Nobody of the youngest of the apprentices of Ansem the Wise, in whom he can discern a scholarly mind beyond Ienzo's years.

~Weapons~

"I will not yield to the frail heart of an infantile coward!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Primary Weapon(s)

ID: Centurion
Quality: Average

Centurion is a massive tomahawk with a red-edged black blade. Coming as far as the Silent Hero's chest in total height, the weapon's handle is deep blue with a yellow pointed cap. Most of the weapon's length lies in its tall blade with the handle being only little more than a foot long. The weapon is clearly bearing a lot of mass and its weight doesn't underachieve. No normal warrior could wield it in battle, let alone with a single arm, without considerable strength.

Secondary Weapon(s)

ID: None

~Abilities~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

AP left: 0



Spire Rain
Lexaeus summons pointed spires of brown clay to drop out of any overhead surface, regardless of its actual material, to fall down to the ground below. The spires are about three meters in height with an average width at the cone's center of one meter. The ends of the spires are pointed, but craggy and not sharp like a spear. Each one weights about ten kilograms. They fall as if they had been hanging just within the surface the entire time and were suddenly let go, no faster than a normal drop. The spires will shatter into pieces if they touch anything in their fall and the fragments will vanish into any surface they touch afterward much like how their whole form appeared in the first place.

Strength: Weak
Uses: Unavailable under an open sky. One spire per post.



The End of the World
To initiate this ability Lexaeus smashes the ground with his weapon, body or another instrument. After doing so a crack with many strands reaching out a radius of five meters for a central point is created, which remains permanently on that spot unless Lexaeus wills it to vanish. No crack is created on a wall or ceiling from this power. On any one of his turns other than the one in which the crack is created Lexaeus can summon a huge blast of raw power from within the planet, which breaks directly upward out of the cracked surface and always gushes directly upward into the sky as glowing orange and yellow energy. In an enclosed space the energy will simply seem to blast through the above barriers to reach the sky. At this level it would be capable of breaking through wooden barricades. The size of the pillar is equal to the radius of the crack it erupted from, bearing a diameter of ten meters. A target caught by this pillar will not be pushed higher than three or five meters high before they stop ascending but they will be trapped in the rush and dealt Earth-elemental damage at a weak level as they are bombarded by the radiation-like pulses from inside the planet. In addition to the energy smaller fragments of stone will also rocket out of the hole and be pushed into the sky as well, most of them as small as a fist. If anyone or anything is caught up in the pillar to begin with then they will likely get pelted by at least three of these moving at fairly high speeds as well. At the beginning of his next turn Lexaeus' summoned energy will cease flowing and when it has vanished no hole or crack will be left in the ground from where it was created.

Strength: Weak
Uses: Only one crack can be created at a time. After use there is a minimum wait of five turns before another can be created.



Iron Man
A mysterious power Lexaeus discovered himself capable of after being revived by Xemnas. The nearly limitless power of the Superior tempered the very Nothingness that Lexaeus' Nobody body was formed of and made it susceptible to the Silent Hero's will. As a result Lexaeus can transform his own flesh into his elemental affinity of Earth, changing his body into dense grey stones in the shape of a man. The Nobody can utilize this power partially to turn an arm or even just a hand into stone, or make his entire being like a statue of granite. Even if fully changed Lexaeus is still capable of total motion of his joints just as he is in his natural state, but he weighs five times as much. Turning his soft muscles into solid rock even while retaining their natural movements grants Lexaeus five times the base physical power his natural body allows for. This increase in power helps to alleviate the stress of his increased weight and retains his admittedly lackluster agility, but at a full conversion to stone Number V is still twice as slow at crossing distances on foot than he is normally. It would go without saying that increasing the mass of his body to such high-density mineral without changing its volume causes Lexaeus' defence to skyrocket in this form. Normal bladed or pointed weapons will have almost no effect against his earthen body without superhuman strength behind them. He also gains a heavy resistance to the elements of fire, ice and lightning, cutting their effectiveness on changed parts of his body to 1/3rd of their usual strength. Unfortunately the reverse is true for the elements of water and wind, which can do three times as much harm to him during use of Iron Man. The element of Earth remains just as effective against Lexaeus as it was before, save for the naturally higher base defence of being made of stone. Lexaeus will often change all of his body to stone except for his visible head, making it almost impossible for his opponents to tell when it is and isn't activated except by his weight and movement speed.

Strength: Strong
Uses: Lexaeus can activate or deactivate this ability passively whenever the need or lack thereof suits him. He can not, however, shift back and forth from not in use at all to partial or total use or vice versa without waiting at least one turn between the changes. When in use he can shift how much of himself is stone anywhere from 100% to 20% freely, but only once per turn at most.

~History~

"This was a fight I should not have started."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As an apprentice of Ansem the Wise on the world of radiant garden Aeleus had a bright future ahead of himself in the ways of science and leadership. That all changed when experiments into the nature of darkness and hearts brought himself and the six other apprentices under the sway of the darkness itself. Aeleus lost his heart just like all the others, but it was not frail enough to simply leave no trace behind. No, it was powerful indeed.

Eventually found and re-named Lexaeus by Xehanort's Nobody, the fellow former apprentice became the fifth member of The organization. Under Xemnas' leadership they worked to gather powerful ones like themselves who had retained their basic original shape rather than becoming inhumanely deformed by the process of losing their Heart, those known as the Nobodies.

During their mission to find a way to regain their lost hearts Lexaeus was stationed in a mysterious castle they discovered known as Castle Oblivion. Marluxia, the one placed in charge of the castle by Xemnas, had plans to overthrow the Organization and as such he and Zexion who had also been placed there had to keep an eye on the Graceful Assassin's actions. Marluxia led the hero of the Keybalde, Sora, to the castle with the intent of turning him into a tool, so Lexaeus, Zexion and Vexen thought to use the fellow hero Riku against him. When Lexaeus tried to turn Riku over to the darkenss in the heat of battle, however, he made an unfortunate discovery. Though Riku was defeated the boy's body stood again. Xehanort's Heartless still lived within him and its power was growing. With the host unconscious it was in total control. Though his strength was great the Silent Hero stood no chance at all against the Superior's other self.

While defeated, Number V was not erased. Though an unmatched force of darkness had slain him it was darkness that would be his saving grace. Of all the members within Organization XIII's ranks, Lexaeus was among the foremost wielders of darkness in its rawest form. Within him he carried a mass of it far greater than even most of the strongest Heartless. All-consuming in nature, Lexaeus allowed his darkness to call out to more as his body faded away. it was a risky gamble, as even Nobodies are not immune to becoming completely corrupted by this great and terrible elemental force, but in the end it paid off. Lexaeus' fragmented form was caught by this drawn-in darkness and slowly returned to himself, bit by bit.

After quiet rejuvenation in the Realm of Darkness for over a year the Silent Hero has finally reawakened. Lexaeus plans to place his strength at the disposal of the Organization once again.

Because he wears the coat of The Organization, Lexaeus' presence can not be detected or tracked through supernatural means.

Hate to break it to you, but it's better I do it so the mods/admins don't have to.

Lexaeus is a canon character, and players have to audition in order to become the official player for a canon character. Auditions are only allowed for users who have a minimum of thirty posts here. Thus, as well constructed as the character bio you wrote is, it won't be accepted.

Honestly, you and I are in the same boat. We both want to play a canon character (in my case, Magus from Chrono Trigger), but since we're new to the forum that just isn't in reach yet. You'll need to come up with your own original character and RP with him/her/it for a while before you can try out for Lexaeus. I'd recommend keeping the bio you've written safely tucked away somewhere until that time comes.

Don't let this discourage you! This is a great place to roleplay and in time you'll no doubt call it home. Until then, I'll be glad to help you get adjusted and whatever else you may need.

[Iris|Kairi]

He did audition. He auditioned on his main account. XDD He always makes separate account for his characters, so no worries. Thanks for trying to help though. ^^

[nascent]

Oh.

Well, I sure feel stupid now... if you guys want to delete my needless post (and this one too, I guess), feel free. Guess I got a little overzealous there...

[High's .Valentine.]

lol, Nascent. Dun feel silly, you just made my day. XDD PM me if you want your message deleted though. XD

Accepted.
