PERSONALITY("Quiet" + "Silent" + "Defiant" + "Rebellious" + "Intelligent" + "Loves to sing his people's songs as an act of rebellion" + "Earnest" + "Always willing to help others") MIND("Quiet" + "Silent" + "Defiant" + "Rebellious" + "Intelligent" + "Loves to sing his people's songs as an act of rebellion" + "Earnest" + "Always willing to help others") WEAPON("Claws as a night creature. He can also raise the octaves in his voice high enough the burt the ear drums of humans and some animals.") ABILITIES("Skilled swordsman" + "Proficient opera singer" + "capable of persuading others to find hope in a place where there is seemingly none to be found") PARTNERSHIPS("Annette (friend and travel companion)") + "Richter Belmont (ally)" + "Maria Renard (ally)" + "Tera (ally)" + "Jacques (ally)") Appearance("Edouard apparently was a man of African and European descent, having a very clear black skin tone and long curly brown hair. One of his most particular characteristics were his big clear blue eyes. Being a famous opera singer, he could often be seen wearing elegant and presumably expensive clothes, but since being turned into a night creature he's now naked.") After the transformation ("After his transformation into a night creature, Edouard adopted the form of a brown colored demon, with bat-like wings coming out of his lower back, and a darker external layer of skin that somewhat resembled an open-chested one piece suit, complete with a cape-like neck and other bat inspired motifs. He also grew some kind of bone mask that divides into four horns with golden tips curved toward the back. More notably, he grew an extra pair of arms, with his normal ones remaining almost the same, but also two slim forearms coming out from his neck that perpetually have their hands covering his face. It is worth noting he retained his big blue eyes almost intact, although now with an innate glow.") Powers and abilities("As a human, Edouard has some skill with a sword, as seen when fighting against vampires and night creatures. After he is transformed into a night creature himself, he becomes a monster equipped with fangs, claws, wings, and the typical speed and strength associated with their kind. His most unique ability is his opera singer's voice he retained from being human, which seems to take on a quality that mesmerizes other night creatures and may have a persuasive element to it that allows him to remind them of their humanity.") History("Edouard was a talented opera singer, until he met Annette and joined her cause to slay vampires. He accompanied her all over Europe, until they arrived just in time to save Richter Belmont from a night creature. He thanked Tera for a decent meal and then told his story; later singing a song when Maria was burying one of her bird familiars that died during the previous battle." + "He later accompanied the group to the nest of vampires, but sadly, as they were fleeing, he wasn't fast enough and was surrounded and drained dry of blood by a massive horde of vampires. His corpse was then turned into a night creature, although he maintained the memories of his past life; so, during his first battle, he saved Annette instead of killing her. This resulted in him being imprisoned by his masters. In his cell, he would sing songs, which had an effect on the other night creatures held there. During Richter and his companions' raid on the chapel, Annette found Edouard and offered to end his life. However, this terrified him and Annette then apologized, telling him she thought that was what he wanted. After Richter ran away at the unexpected sight of Olrox, Edouard was approached by the vampire, who asked what happened to him; Edouard responded that he wanted his freedom, and Olrox responded "we all do". Later, Edouard spoke with his guard, who resulted to be Jacques, another revolutionary who was killed by vampires and also had his corpse turned into a night creature, and they formed an alliance." + "During the final battle, Annette made it to the cells and offered Edouard to free him, but he told her to finish her mission first before saving him. Later, when a night creature was ordered to kill Edouard for singing, Jacques decapitated it. Edouard then arrived to the basement and embraced a crying Annette, as she failed to push the machine back to Hell.")
