Male as Benny, N/A as ArchAngel

History:
Zealot was once your average Italian, named Benito Faraldo. He was fond of cigars, and owned a small bookshop. However, he had one, small, tiny, bouncy ball sized problem.

A tumor. Located at a specific spot in his brain, it was so deeply rooted the doctors declared it terminal. Benny thought he had months to live. He was fine with this. He was an old man. He had lived, had seen his grandchildren grow into strong, fine people. He would die content when his time came. However, the tumor caused side effects. One such side effect would ruin Benny's life.

It caused blackouts. Benito thought that he was merely unconscious when these occurred, but in actuality, his alter ego, ArchAngel took over. A angry, twisted zealot, ArchAngel killed all those he deemed 'sinners'. At first, this was limited to criminals and Kishin Eggs, but as Benny's tumor grew worse, so did ArchAngel. He eventually graduated to killing prostitutes.

Benny would wake up in strange places, not remembering where he was, with strange injuries. This caused some level of paranoia.

However, it was not until ArchAngel took a soul that things went to hell. For you see, while ArchAngel was a separate personality, he shared a soul with Benny. When he took a soul and became a Kishin Egg, Benny became a Kishin Egg as well. Benny began to have horrific nightmares, began to see things that were not there, and was in a constant state of worry.

Meanwhile, ArchAngel kept collecting souls. Eventually, in his madness, he declared himself a avenging angel of god. No longer was he a insane vigilante. Now he was an insane, deluded Kishin Egg who believed himself to be doing gods will. Eventually, he collected enough souls so that, whenever he takes over, Benny's form changes. Making the two look completely different.

Meanwhile, Benny discovered his tumor had disappeared. This was the first piece of good news the man had had in a long time. Believing it to be a divine miracle, Benny threw a massive party, not knowing that it was the result of him becoming a Kishin Egg, and not a result of godly intervention.

At this party, he drank, laughed, celebrated. He had invited his entire town, his family, his friends, his neighbors, even his priest! As the night wore on, and he imbibed more and more wine, eventually, he passed out. And ArchAngel emerged. Enraged by the alcohol in his bloodstream and the sight of a party going on, which he deemed 'sinful', he began killing party goers and taking their souls, raising his count to 10. Wandering off, he eventually passed out in a ditch. When he came too, Benny was in control. Waking up, groggy and confused. Stumbling out, he passed by a TV store. Where he saw last nights massacre.  And his face, with the words, 'Kishin Egg', below it. Horrified, he fled. He tried desperately putting together what he remembered, in hopes of finding SOMETHING he could use to prove his innocence. That was when he and ArchAngel first spoke.

Learning of his alter ego, Benny was horrified. Carefully consider, how would you react if you learned you were a monster, with a other half that killed innocents for the flimsiest of reasons, who was a complete perversion of your faith?

Benny fled. He sought a way to be rid of ArchAngel. That was five years ago. He has given up. Now he seeks only to limit the damage he does. He has attempted suicide several times. Each attempt has failed. Benny now hopes someone with power is able to kill him, and end the threat he and ArchAngel pose. But he has not lost hope. He still searches for a way to reverse what has become of him.

He stumbled upon information regarding a man in Europe who had been performing research into the occult, specifically, demonology and Kishinology. The man held, once per year, a masquerade ball. Sneaking in as a guest, Feraldo attempted to steal his research. Unfortunately, he was not the only one who snuck in. A dark weapon and another Kishin Egg were in attendance. While their goals were unrelated, he was nearly killed by them, barely escaping, managing to aquire various research notes, and a black book filled with dread inspiring runes, that caused pain when Feraldo attempted to read it. He is now studying the book, attempting to decipher it.

He soon fell in with a group of homeless in France. There, he was somewhat content. While life was hard, he did not have ArchAngel bothering him all day. However, this all changed when a academy student stumbled onto the area under a bridge he and the other homeless took shelter in. Treating her with hospitality, he was betrayed when his location was reported to the academy, who sent a meister weapon team to kill him. Panicking, he transformed into ArchAngel, who fought back. The homeless were all killed in the crossfire, and the meister and weapon duo were badly injured. Devouring the souls of the dead homeless, ArchAngel fled into the night.

Moving to the UK, Benny managed to get a stable job as a book store clerk, and got an apartment. However, ArchAngel became more active again. Doing his best to prevent ArchAngel from taking control, he did not sleep for five days straight. This would come back to haunt him, when, after encountering Droon, he lost control, turned into ArchAngel, and went on a frenzy, killing over fifteen people.

Recently, browsing through the Demonologists notes, he has discovered the key to deciphering the Black Book. He must sacrifice a corrupt soul for it to be translated. So he is now on the lookout for Kishin Eggs in the city.

Abilities	Description	# of souls  contributed to  the ability
Seraphic Form	Due to hitting one hundred souls, ArchAngels angelic form has evolved into Seraphic Form. Giving a immense boost to his speed, strength, and durability. Further, he emits a superhot, blinding corona while in this state, which makes it difficult to take him on in Melee combat	100
Photokinesis	Manipulation of light, allowing for blinding, burns, impromptu barriers, and light generation. He may also use this light to augment and create weapons.	70
Baptize	A ability that allows ArchAngel to turn those with weak wills to his side, Baptize replaces its victims beliefs with ArchAngels. Luckily, this ability requires contact to be performed, and cannot be used against those he is not touching. It is also capable of being reversed if the victim does something intrinsically against their original character. For example, a man who detested violence who was baptized could have the process reversed if he was forced to commit violence	5
Benediction	ArchAngel or Benny may send a beam of healing light at his intended recipient, healing their wounds.	10
Exorcism	A blast of energy that weakens Kishin Eggs, by draining fifteen of their collected souls. Further, he can manifest an aura that will drain five souls upon contact with an enemy Kishin Egg.	40

Have you read the rules:
"I lurv Soul Eater."

How much does the Angelic form increase his stats? Could that be specified?

Hmm... It would, at its current state, allow him to lift a car, but only if he put effort into it, and speed wise, he would probably be a LITTLE slower than the average meister. Durability wise, his Angelic Form has just as much stopping power as Kevlar, and unlike Kevlar, does not work with just guns.

That being said, if you consider any of that overpowered, I will gladly edit it.

Thank you. Approved!

Appearance and personality both need added. Please provide a soul count and madness strand as well.
