The Legacy

Personality: Archangel has a cool personality

History: Time to get the most misunderstood portion of his history out of the way, as that seems to be something that a lot of people find strange. Yes, Michael has two dads, like biological and not involving any sort of adoption, so deal with it. He is the eldest son born of The Existential being known as The Archon, and some sort of sciency magicy thing called Apex, though the second youngest of the children born by The Archon. How he was born was through a complex process that involved the creation of a soul facilitated by various energies that could allow that process.

The exact date of Michael’s birthday is not easily remembered, though it is somewhere in June and that is all that matters really. Compared to his younger sibling Silus, he was powerful in regards with his titan heritage and as such found the arts of the dark ethereal easy to master, coming almost second nature to him. Training with his father who was at the time the lord of a dimension called The Abyss, he quickly managed to control the dark ethereal, and even become a master with almost no one to call his peer. Like all members of his species, he had a short childhood and matured to the age of eleven with a span of a few months, though he chose not to let that be the physical stopping point of his body, and went further. His development stopped around the age of seventeen, which he found to be an age that he could enjoy.

From a young age he was charismatic, always finding making friends easy, even if he did not really think of them as friend, but more as tools than anything else. However, there were two things that made his otherwise seemingly idyllic life as an ethereal prince somewhat off, one being his youngest brother was a gene hazard and the second was less than wholesome feelings towards his elder half-brother Shael. The former could be overlooked, as even if he had no powers whatsoever, he was still family, and in his own way Michael valued family. It was the latter he actually had trouble with, though not because of what he was told, however because of an observation, From all that he saw, it wasn’t something that happened, across the isles he saw nothing like that happening and he felt like some manner of freak. While abnormalities were not something he found to be a problem in his siblings, to have something so abnormal within himself was a tragedy almost.

However this internal conflict was kept internal, and so life seemed to go on, Michael doing as he usually did, and occasionally inadvertently dropping a few idiots into the river never to be seen again. Yet everything changed when the youngest of the Atterrius children was taken from the very palace of Valhalla itself, not something he would take very lightly. So without a moment wasted, a search had been started for the ethereal prince, yet in the end they did find him, but the price that had been paid he was not prepared for. Upon returning from the desert called Death’s embrace, something had happened, though Michel had not been aware of it at the time. Ouroboros had supercharged Silus, awakening his ultima and killing Shael in the process.

While he was not aware of the how, he was aware of the fact that Shael was dead which had hit the young ethereal harder than anything. Utterly broken, Michael isolated himself from everyone and in that isolation he himself picked up the pieces, and even to these days the cracks still remain. However this healing was half done, and would only fall apart with the next part, after the fight against Ouroboros as those that supported him. Michael was approached by the enigmatic ethereal known as Raziel, offering him the power he needed, to go from exile to his birthright. This was the power of Ultima, and with this Michael had forged an ally, someone that was with him when his family stood against him ready to kill him. In his mind there was no other choice, but in the end he was just a child trying to play the adult. That was what made him the easiest of pawns, the willingness to do anything to garner power, to achieve his own somewhat vague goals. A child that had managed to take the thrones of two powerful races without even an army.

Still, this had lead him to an inevitable conclusion, one that was only made worst by information given to him by his new ally. That his brother’s death was not caused by some giant sand worm, but his own younger brother, by Silus. The initial reaction as one of pure shock. That he could not believe that the gene hazard could and would do something like that to him. It was perhaps this time within his life that Michael felt true hatred, the desire to end someone, and it was with this animosity that he was set out that day to the former base of OCEAN. To this day he could not remember why he was truly there, but a fight had broken out, and in the end he had killed Silus’ best friend, a sort of poetic justice if you would have asked him then. Yet despite just being content with what he had done, and moving on, he went one step further, everything having become a haze at that point as he said a sentence that had perhaps scarred the child for life.

“Death’s too good for you.”

This had left the child less than a crying mess, but it was Hyperion who had fed upon that unspeakable act, a black cancer, the titan portion of him. It was when the passion of the moment had passed that he realized the mistake that had been made, the cracks od the barely held together mess grew and with it everything came tumbling down once again. No, it had been made worse by the very presence of the person that had had thought dead, wounds that felt as if they would only fester and rot. Despite that, he knew that a confrontation was approaching, but only one thing had occupied his mind at the time, as his children Fera and Shael had left him following that incident. So splitting off a very portion of his soul and naming it Jordan, he sent this portion after them, not to retrieve them but to watch after them. This portion was what one would call the good within him, and perhaps in some way he was making them to give his family a part of him they would love. In the end he had accepted he would die, destroyed by the very family that had risen against him.

So he would play the part, and die the usurper he had become. It was in this fight that he found out Raziel’s true purpose, only using him to gain the power of ultima, and then tossing him away to die like he had wanted. However that was not what had happened, and it seemed that either they did not want him to die, or it was just a means to make him suffer to expire, or even that they wanted to throw the deaths too good for you line back in his face. For a month after the incident, his body had been left powerless and crippled, he had been left absolutely helpless after his bid for power. Michael hated it, the inability to do anything, being left as nothing more than a burdensome cripple, though why they didn’t kill him was beyond Mike. Still, eventually his powers returned and with them more problems, Silus seemingly dying and his son being murdered by Raziel who had not exactly died.

Another seeming blow against Michael, who had fallen into an inconsolable depression and with it, the desire to destroy Raziel had risen more powerful than ever. So with that done, he would venture into a realm long forgotten by even the most ancient of beings, contacting an incarnation of balance itself and asking for its help. In return for that, he was sent on a long journey across a realm of darkness and eternal strife for the answer to its end. It was ten years that he ventured, and eventually he found this, scarred and battered as he was, returning with the answer to defeat Raziel and hunting down the ethereal. Despite his fatigue, he would venture into the pyramid that held the ethereal, met with the very brother he thought dead and together they had slain Raziel, though he took the final blow for himself. It had been done, he had managed to kill the one that had taken his son from him, and yet in the end he was ready to accept the price to slay a god, the balance to the power that he had obtained. Yet death was not his destiny, and with it life would go on, a primordial of chaos being the one that brought his son back to him. Another thing he could not do for him, another reminder of how powerless he truly was.

Regardless, a new threat had risen from what seemed like stability, that being Thanatos of The Abyss, and Michael went out to stop them before they could do anything to harm the fragile thing he knew as his family. Many would ask why, but he had his own reasons, perhaps penance or something else, but in the end he ventured into The Abyss. It was when Hyperion manifested before him that he was faced with the ultimate challenge and he was defeated, leaving the abyssal manifestation to take down Thanatos, and become The Abyssal one himself. Yet he did not strike out against his family, but sat within The Abyss and upon his throne, doing nothing while the realm devoured itself. Only ever leaving to wander the earth or helping his sibling Silus regain his soul, slowly awaiting the day he would fade away.

However that was not to be his fate, thanks to a meddling existential and a lantern of souls. Hyperion had not died, but it seemed that his conquest of The Abyss much like his others would not last long, as something happened that he was not expecting. Thanatos, a being of death that he had thought was consumed within his being was not as dead as he would have liked him to be, and so the former abyssal one who had been consumed actually forcibly removed himself from Hyperion, and in a subsequent battle nearly killed the ethereal. Had it not been for a last minute ploy, he would have died there, but landing weakened upon the shore of LA, he was met with Jordan; his so called good half. Rather than dying, he went with the alternative of becoming one with them again.

Innuendos aside, this meant that not only that his former power had been returned, but he also perhaps had enough power to challenge Thanatos, not that he was in control enough to act upon that.

The Powers and Weaknesses

Powers

Ultima Ethereal manipulation: Jordan is capable of manipulating the fabled ultima ethereal energy of his people, which takes the form of a brilliant grey energy. He can build constructs with it, such as shields, blades, weapons and even just using it to blast things. While it has a typical appearance, he can also make the energy take the form of dark or pure ethereal energy depending upon what he wants it to appear as, though it doesn’t change effect much.

Martial Dominance: From his fusion with the being known as Hyperion, he has gained a large amount of martial competence and prowess, making him competent if not a master within the use of almost any weapon you can imagine. However, he is still most proficient to the use of long ranged weapons such as guns rather than blades.

Ethereally Enhanced Durability: Through application of his energy, Jordan projects a field of energy over his body that softens and cushions blows from aggressors. Allowing him to take damage that he would otherwise not be able to take.

The Mind of a God: While by no means a god, his mind is capable of processing and calculating things at an accelerated speed. Allowing him to perform computations many times faster than the average human, to the point that even most superhumans cannot comprehend his intellect. As for knowledge, it’s mostly specialized within things of an occult nature.

Flight: Jordan can form brilliant white wings to fly upon. These wings can be used to fly or defend him, as well as achieve superhumanly fast flight.

Healing Light: Jordan can produce a soft green mist from his hands that he can use to heal people, as well as him self with. This means he can repair small things as well as even major wounds with time. Minor wounds taking less than a few minutes, and major ones only taking a few minutes.

Humanoid Shapeshifting: Michael is capable of taking the form of any other humanoid easily, even altering small features about himself such as eye color or the length of his hair.

Empathy: Michael is capable of feeling the emotions of those around him, and with concentration he can control them. [controlling emotions player permission based]

Item Conjuration: Michael is capable of conjuring simple items, like chairs, food items and guns when he really needs to.

Adaptive energy: he can change the properties of his energy to fit the situation, such as making his ethereal energy burn like fire, or flow like water. However, it cannot have more than 1 property changed at a time, meaning that if it acts like water, then it cannot burn or vice versa.

Weakness(es)

Clipped: His wings if damaged will be useless for flight.

Darkness is my bane: When acting as Archangel, dark magic has a greater effect upon him, slowing his regeneration as well as just hurting him more.

The greatest weakness of all: Family is perhaps the greatest weakness of all for him. Should his family members be put into danger, regardless of his guise he will do anything to protect them.

Obsessive: Michael is known to obsess with things that catch his interest, and his overall personality tends to learn towards the obsessive. This can lead him to getting into situations that would possibly kill him.

Vengeful: Vengeance is something that Michael easily falls into, and this can be used to manipulate him to do any things if he is misinformed.

Aversion to cold: Michael has an immense aversion to cold, and even performs less effectively in the cold, sometimes to the point of seeming mediocre compared to his normal.

Magical beacon: Michael is easy to detect for people that can sense magical energies, and rto hide himself he would need to suppress his power to the point of being human

Sealing: Techniques that bind ethereals work fine on him.

Empathy: People’s emotions can impact him and affect his mood.

Flying Weakness: In stormy weather his flight is impeded greatly.

Concentration:To conjure something he needs to concentrate, and that means he cannot do so in something hectic like a battle.

Required weakness: If he for example changes the effect of his energy to burn like fire, then it will be counteracted better with something like water, so natural weaknesses of the properties his energy is taking will apply so long as that effect is in place.

Divided Attention: Jordan cannot heal himself while under pressure, meaning that in intense combat he would have to deal with the damage done.
