Prince of Wrath (Demon Strade)

Strade is a demon, created at the hands of Lucien Rire, a demon usurper king of hell. He is around 8’5 with a gaping hole in his chest filled with abyssal entrails and dripping with tar-like blood. His chest cavity burns with a lime green flame where a heart should be, ribcage exposed. Has black, leathery wings and two large horns upon his head. His eyes are two black scleras with lime slits for pupils and has a mouth with canines like knives. He is a creature of pure sadism & agony, given his demonic state by a usurper king. He is new and voracious, and eternally empty... Strade was once a mortal man, who in his former life had lived a sadistic life of torturing his kidnapped captives for the dark web, and to fulfill his own sexually sadistic urges. He’d always been that way. Until one fateful kidnapping, when a captive wasn’t tied properly. They’d stolen a knife in his basement where he’d held all his previous victims, and managed to attack him, damaging a major artery. As Strade was bleeding out, his more permanent captive at the time, a fox beast-kin by the name of Ren Hana, had discovered his dying body lying on the cement floor. As the last bit of life drained from Strade, Ren had eaten the man’s heart.. which is why, in Strade’s renewed form, he has a large, tar-like chest cavity of molten lime flame between exposed ribs where his heart would be. Strade remembers nothing of his past life, or at the very least, not much. Even if he did remember anything, it’s been so long since then. If he remembers Ren at all, he would presume that he would have been dead by now.
