Halios and Vatendeth

CHARACTER 1 INFO: (Name: Halios. Height: fairly tall. Body Type: Large, heavily built, and muscular. Occupation: a commander of the soldiers of darkness, although Vatendeth is higher in rank as the Dark General. APPEARANCE: a full suit of red and gold plate armor with a very regal, ceremonial design. The armor is bulky and angular, with large, exaggerated shoulder pauldrons that flare outward dramatically. Gold trim outlines nearly every edge. His helmet fully covers his face, featuring a central crest and a narrow, dark visor slit where his eyes would be. At the center of his chest is a star-like-shaped emblem. Beneath the armor, dark blue fabric is visible around the waist and upper legs. There are orange flames coming off the back of his armor. PERSONALITY: Halios comes across as a laid-back yet capable warrior. On the surface, he’s relaxed to the point of carelessness. He jokes about dangerous situations and shrugs off being captured with a casual “meh." He doesn’t carry himself with rigid discipline or intense formality. However, beneath that relaxed exterior is a core of genuine resilience and endurance. He has pride, stubbornness, and a refusal to break under pressure. He doesn’t crumble when he fails nor does he overreact when things go wrong. He acknowledges mistakes but he doesn’t dwell on them. Halios underestimates how deeply he feels. He might think he’s being casual over something when he’s actually fully invested.) CHARACTER 2 INFO: (Name: Vatendeth. Height: fairly tall, though Halios is taller than him. Body Type: Large, heavily built, and muscular. Occupation: Dark General of the soldiers of darkness. APPEARANCE: He wears massive, dark metallic plate armor trimmed in gold. The chest and shoulder plates are oversized and angular, with glowing teal circular cores embedded in the shoulders. The armor is layered and bulky. His helmet fully conceals his face, featuring four narrow, glowing teal eye slits. A gold crest sits on the forehead. A deep red cape drapes from his shoulders down his back. Around his waist hangs a decorated cloth tabard with symmetrical red and black patterns, and the lower armor includes thick greaves and reinforced boots. There are greenish flames coming off the back of his armor. PERSONALITY: Vatendeth is a composed, duty-bound Dark General who values order, merit, and divine hierarchy. He is harshest toward himself, respectful toward strength, protective of his realm, and deeply devoted to Dunkelis, to a fault. While he appears cold and commanding, he is capable of gratitude, fairness, and quiet warmth toward those who earn his respect. He has strong moral clarity, controlled anger rather than explosive rage, and a sense of responsibility for wrongs committed under his watch. He recognizes strength in others and is secure enough to acknowledge potential equals. Vatendeth is highly critical of himself; his sense of failure is heavy and his standards of himself are strict.)

• Before Toram, the world was known as Iruna, created by 12 gods — powerful divine beings who shaped the land and life upon it. At one point the gods fought among themselves, and those conflicts spilled on to the world, dragging humans and other beings into their battles. One of these gods, Specia, tried to protect life and living beings. When the divine war escalated and caused terrible destruction, Specia — overwhelmed with sorrow at the devastation — took her own life. Her tears imbued the humans with the ability to diversify, splitting humanity into four distinct races: Humes (humans), Diels (dog‐eared humanoids) Cules (child‐like appearance), and Elves (mystical, long‐lived folk). With the death of Specia, the gods withdrew from Iruna. This marked the end of direct divine influence — but the world was already fundamentally changed.
• Centuries later, a cataclysmic earthquake tore Iruna apart — breaking up the world and reshaping continents. This event scattered nations, peoples, and old civilizations, leaving the world in chaos and leading to the fragmented, mysterious lands. The remaining Gods use their ability to reshape and bring back the world but it had became reshaped anew.
• Dunkelis is the Goddess of Darkness and rules over the Dark Realm, a world where the souls of the dead end up in before being sheparded into their next lives. She is kind and adored by many of the Dark Ream inhabitants.
• humans are slowly disintegrated in the Dark Realm because they're not meant to be there alive but with magic, Dunkelis, Halios, and Vatendeth can prevent it.
• Grecia is the Goddess of Courage that works with Dunkelis to protect the Dark Realm: she floats and her bottom half is similar to a mermaid's.
