"Evils blood shall spill tonight

Tear their dark eyes from their wretched skulls

Fouls hearts shall be ripped from chests unworthy

Death, Death, Three times death, Death to the enemies of mankind.

I call thee Red Knight. Rip and tear until there are none. "
Spell to Summon the Red Knight.

Real Name: Hertha Adalbert
Alias(es): The Red Knight
Allegiance: Hertha owes her loyalty to none.
Sex: Female
Race: Demon Possessed Human
Age: Old, she's been around since the middle ages. Meanwhile the demon within her is considerably older.
Height: 6 feet 2 inches (Outside of her armour she's about 6 foot)
Weight: 156
Appearance: Hertha herself, if you were to remove her armour somehow, would be a tall, dark-haired woman with unnaturally pale skin. Her eyes are dull, as if she is dead or blind, though she is quite capable of sight. Most of the time, she is encased in a suit of red armour the colour of blood. She wears a helmet which is coloured in white, contrasting with her red suit. The red doesn't appear to be painted on, rather it seems to be part of the metal itself.

Something Like this, but red with a white helmet:

Personality: Hertha's default emotions are rage and hatred, with a near psychopathic anger towards demons, undead, supernatural evils and the followers of such evil. Though she is often merciful to humans, she is rarely anything more than unfriendly. Beyond demons, she is disgusted with what she has become and longs for death more than anything. She has little patience for fools, and will very blatantly call things as they are. She does however have a sense of honour and obligation, and often the way to reason with her is to tap into that sense. She has no love for aliens either. Though she can be reasonable and has a more human side, especially when it comes to things that remind her of her children.

The demon within her is even more single minded. It wishes nothing other than the blood of it's own kind. Though it is less enraged and more manipulative in it's approach. While Hertha may have concern for civilian casualities in her war against demonkind, the demon does not.

Goals & Ambitions: Hertha desires the complete extinction of all demons and supernatural evils in the world. Failing that, she wishes to die killing as many demons as possible.

Abilities & Equipment:
The Red Armour of Tharigon: The Red armour serves as protection, giving her more durability and allowing her a resistance to anything evil and supernatural (Though not an invulnerability to it) and human weapons.

Demon possession: Hertha is strong and fast because of Tharigon's inhabitance of her body. In addition, she can manipulate hell fire and she can sense magic or the supernatural. Considering the boost from her armour and the possession, she's about as strong as Bane (2 tons lifting) and about as tough. Taking into account her armour, she's about as fast as a peak human. In addition, she knows all manmade languages. Hertha is a pretty good fighter by default, and her powers help compliment that.

Undeath: Hertha does not require oxygen, can't die of old age and is immune to disease and toxins.

Spell of Summoning: Hertha can be summoned by wizards, mages and other magical entities whom wish to destroy demonkind through a spell.

Weaknesses:
As a glorified Zombie demon, Hertha is subject to a ton of supernatural weaknesses. Holy water, Silver, Hallowed Ground, Holy fire can all be major obstacles. Holy water burns her, Silver can pierce her armour, she is severely weakened in Hallowed ground and Holy fire will likely destroy her. Alien weaponry is also a major problem for her, since she cannot sense it and it will bypass her armours resistances. Another problem for her is she's slowed somewhat by her armour, which she cannot take off (Apart from the helmet).

Hertha's rage can often get the best of her and she isn't exactly a complex tactician. Her strategies mostly consist of killing things in front of her.

Finally, she doesn't have infinite stamina. Once she's killed all the demons she can, she tends to drift into a dormant sleep until summoned again, or until the demon wakes her to kill more.

Personal History: In the middle ages, there was once a German village. Hertha was a mother of two children, and her husband Klaus. While Klaus was recruited by the army, Hertha was sucked into an affair with the head of the village, Strauss, that was until Hertha found out that he was a demon taking human form.

The demon wasted no time in slaughtering the entire village, and chasing Hertha into a nearby cave. She managed to find herself a suit of armour, however died being impaled to the suit of armour. Though she died, she was resurrected by the demon living within the suit of armour. Tharigon made a deal with Hertha agreeing to lend her his power if she dedicated her unlife to the killing of all things evil. Hertha agreed, and so the Red Knight was born.

Since that time, Hertha's time has been spent in the killing of as many demons as she can. Although her effort is likely futile, since there is no shortage of evil things in the world, she continues with a dedication that can only be descibed as fanatical and with methods that can only be described as brutal.
