Corvus, The Crow

Corvus

Gender/Sex: Genderfluid, primarily identifies as Male (he/him)


Age: Appears to be in his 20’s

Meister: Atlas or Orion

Weapon Form: Corvus takes the form of a simple golden glaive with two curved, geometric patterned blades opposite each other on the staff. Both sides of the blades are honed to a sharp point.



Love Interest: None

Orientation (Sexual/Romantic): Pansexual

Appearance: Corvus sports black hair as dark as the bird that he takes his name from, and keeps it choppy and uneven, the ends flicking out like ruffled plumage. His eyes are a deep yellow, a slow, spying blink to his eyes that feel like you’re being watched by a spirit, and his skin almost a pale gray. He has multiple piercings in his face, and has stretched the lobes of his ears. He dresses bare-chested, showcasing his black geometric tattoos, with a thick coat lined with black feathers around the hood, and tight leather pants and boots. Corvus is incredibly fond of the shape-shifting that came with his celestial form, and will readily change forms or genders to suit his own whim or need. He also has an animal form, a black crow, or a small murder that he uses to move stealthily from one location to the next, or to avoid attacks. He stands at 6’3”, with a lean build, but a muscular chest and arms.

Personality: Despite his frightening appearance, Corvus is a bit of a joker. He’ll often shift forms for a prank, or to position himself to better make a coy flirting remark. He has a laugh like a squawking crow, loud and boisterous. He’s generally very relaxed, often found lounging across tables or tree branches, generally the highest place he can stretch out on. However, a good fight will get him more excited than generally anything. He favors stealthier attacks than his sister, preferring a stab to the back to a drawn out fist-fight. He runs fast, flies faster, and laughs in the face of it all. He has a hard time taking much seriously, though, outside of the orders given to him by Atlas, and doesn’t take humanity as anything that’s worth saving anymore.

History: Corvus was born in close to modern-day Athens in the early days of man. With Orion as the stronger warrior of the house, Corvus found his place trapping small game for furs and skinning them. As the Titans rose against the gods in defense of Prometheus and mankind, Corvus followed his sister, Orion, to find the Titans. When they reached the Titans, they volunteered to serve under the titan, Atlas. Atlas accepted their service, but the acceptance was false until they had proven themselves to him. It was during these battles that Orion and Corvus both discovered the boosts in power granted by consuming souls. For Corvus, this soul consumption granted him the ability to dissipate his body into a murder of crows. This shift in body granted him an advantage on the battlefield, where his crows could slip behind enemy lines, or attack as a flock and pluck the eyes of opposing soldiers. When the Titans were eventually conquered by the gods, the soldiers of Atlas were slowly tracked down, and imprisoned in the sky for their treachery. Corvus was able to escape for a long while due to his illusion magic, but was eventually trapped in a net and sold to the gods for reward money.
Centuries later, when Arachne was working on forming her weapons, she used the souls of the soldiers of Atlas to craft the first trials of these weapons. Due to the fact that they had already been consuming souls, they formed Dark Weapons instead. When Atlas was freed from his duty of holding the world up on his back, and witnessed the evils of humanity, he tore the sky, and freed Corvus from his prison.  

Soul Count: 48

Like A Feather on The Breath of God	Corvus is a master of illusion. This resonance ability creates the illusion of two glaives when in fact there is only one.	10
Flux	No matter how hard or far the glaive is thrown, Covus can always return back to his meister.	25
Whirlwind Strike/Fury of Crows	A whirling strike that traps opponents in whirlwind temporarily. At the higher resonance, the whirlwind fills with steel feathers that cut into the skin like knives.	35/95
100 Blades Strike	Corvus’s illusions call a thousand identical glaives to point at their target and launch all at once. Only Corvus himself is a tangible image, but the attack charges him with the strength of the 100. (Corvus will be the only one casting a shadow.)	50
Morrigan’s Touch	Corvus is intimately familiar with the human body. A rapid fire placement of strikes acts as a temporary paralytic; rendering his opponent incapable of movement.	75
Hitchcock	The glaive’s blades are heavier and stronger and can now strike at an opponent as though there were no armor or guards to stop it. Ignores blocks, leaving cuts and slices only on the opposing meister, regardless of whether or not another weapon is in the way.	80

Miscellaneous: Corvus is the brother of Orion. While he typically views humans as beneath him, and the other Celestium as holding him back in some regards, Orion he will acknowledge as the stronger warrior between them.
