OmegaRper42
Arbiter of light and dark.
Names: Mephos
Aliases: King of Nightmares (Dreams)
Titles: Envoy of nightmares
Originally angel of Dreams and hope
Moral alignment: Chaotic neutral
Race: Fallen angel
Age: his real age is unknown but he seems to be in his early 20s, even though he is much older than that.
Sexual orientation: Pansexual
Appearance: It has been so long that he has forgotten what he originally looked like, his distorted views likely making him block out the memory of who he once was.
Now Mephos resembles a young man in his 20s, well built if pale of skin, with eyes as red as blood and a bowtie as red as blood and hair as red as blood standing at 5'11. Although technically a royal he is seen nearly all the time wearing shady looking clothing that looks as if it was stitched together by an amateur. His hat is a cut in half top hat with a patch sewed onto it, the left side of his face is covered by his shady red hair but if one where to look past it they would see that the eye in that socket had been torn out and patched up with a big red X.

Equipment:
Lucid nightmare: A long almost ridiculously proportioned scythe that resembles more black mist than anything tangibly sold, yet like any scythe it can cut enemies just the same despite its misty like appearance. Nightmare is kept in his shadow and is a weapon formed from his own soul only breaking when he is either dead or unconscious (though he can reform it back later if he wakes up from the latter). It is a weapon like no other, able to bend and twist almost like rubber yet cut like steel and when used in the dream world it can be used to inflect harm to the person in the waking world.
Archive of sleep: It is a record of the dreams he has visited. Holding the deepest secrets of those who have been visited by Mephos, cataloging all of the hidden meanings behind someones desires, fears, worries, lusts, hopes… Although he usually blots out the latter to not be painfully reminded of a lie told so long ago. The book is leather bounded and is only capable of being opened by Mephos or someone as strong or stronger than him.
combat prowess: Thousands of years as a dream warrior has truly done him well as he is one of the most skillful fighter in the world. As he is now due to the madness he is now also completely unpredictable in combat utilizing wild attacks and tricky movements.
Spells/Powers:
Yin and Yang energy (Soul energy): Since Mephos was first a High ranking angel he still retains some power over the light even though he has been corrupted and since his corruption he also had the power of darkness at his beck-and-call. While wielding these duel powers Mephos is capable of many great feats, examples would be using light to heal gracious wounds cause by a physical or magical ailment, along with blinding foes and enhancing the power of his soul weapon. Commanding darkness also can increase the power of a soul bound weapon as well as deliver many plagues and can also allow teleportation through darkness to anywhere as long as light does not touch it. When he is serious he will combine these energies, resulting in a very explosive combination that would cause even the lightest warrior to pause in fear at the sheer intensity.
Dream manipulation: Originally Mephos job was to be the guardian of peoples sleep, fighting back any nightmare that would cause possible distress to anyone in the dream world. After forsaking this duty he became one who gave nightmares to people instead of helping to alleviate bad dreams, taking pleasure in the abstract distress of those who he was suppose to protect he is capable of manipulating the dream world to suit any need he desires. Mephos is capable of entering the dreams of many in a range of about 7 miles, understanding nearly everything about the person from just entering their dream. With Lucid nightmare he can even harm people in the real world or even kill them if he had the whim to do so and since the dream world is his own personal ‘play ground’ surviving is the best anyone can do until they wake up. If one is prepared and has a large amount of magical power however they can block him from entering their dreams or at the very least limit his control of their subconscious mind.
Will-O-Wisp: Resembling fire, but It's actually much, much worse. Mephos has enough control over it to inflict purely psychological sensations of pain rather than actual pain but it is impossible to distinguish between the actual wisps and the mental ones. They are charged and launched out of his mouth or extremities. Because it is not fire, it cannot ignite flammable sources and spread the flames, only coating what it initially hits, and beings who are immune to fire can be harmed by it. The flames can be distinguished from most actual fires by the fact they are dark red no matter what they hit. The will-O-wisps while used mainly for causing pain they are also able to inflict other sensations, like pleasure or even a sense of dread.
Bio:
As the cosmos of the young world had been ordered by its own goddess, Aditi many forces where called into being to help manage and dictate how the natural order was to be. These other forces of the world would be soon be named angels by the first mortal races. One of these to govern the world of dreams was the fun loving Mephos who spent his time like the rest tending to the world he especially loved his job as he got to view the hopes and ambitions of the mortal races. Sometimes he would need to fight off the nightmares that would come out of the darkness of the mind. Darkness had been a strange blot on his goddesses creation that at time disturbed him. If All was good how come such ugliness could worm its way into the minds and hearts of mortal... And not just mortals. Like many children of the great goddess he was shocked and disbelieving of the times when one of his brothers or sisters would give into the darkness, forsaking what made them what they where and twisting them into perverted characterizes of something that used to be beautiful. The fallen ones. The Envoys of despair.
Epoch's went by and the once fun loving lord of dreams started to become manic by the amount of nightmares that increased day by day as it seemed that the mortal races and even those of immortal races grew more arrogant and lustful. His own heart once filled with hope and love suddenly became scornful and slowly became full of despair. Demons, the twisted abominations born out of the darkness that was parallel to creation sought to lower the beautiful work of his goddess into the murky chaos of their realm.... The only thing that kept him from falling into the tempting oblivion of nihilism was his beautiful creator....
All good things must come to an end. Even those things that seem powerful and glorious must too die one day. Aditi the great mother to all the angels and indeed all of creation as they knew it had suddenly gone missing, her illuminated throne vacated... With only a splatter of blood on it to give an idea of what might have happened.
Broken. Twisted. Full of unimaginable despair the once great lord of dreams after witnessing the throne of his creator, his mother, empty with only splatters of what could only be her blood became the monster he is today. Leaving behind the throne of heaven and becoming one of the fallen, become a lord of nightmares that spread his despair among all who live as he wonders the nexus of creation to alien worlds and times, as the world of dreams has no such boundaries such as place of time.
