| OOC: Uhh, this dude isn't overboard. He's Kratos with my own twist on him. He's vastly underpowered compared to the other guys, and especially compared to my usuals. Thaltos has deadly scimitars, a healthy smattering of energy-dependant brontomancy, and he's a brute. Oh yeah, and by using up a massive amount of his stored energy he can stone someone. Would you prefer I had a demonic god, or a cryo-pyro-obscuromantic fallen angel again?
I play RPs so I can do stuff that's interesting. Thaltos is just a fun assassin-type character.
BoT:
Thaltos bowed before a statue of Zeus, touching his forehead to the floor. The statue animated, and the great lord of Olympus's voice rolled out like the thunder that symbolized his power.
"Thaltos, my son...there exists a new threat in your world. A man possessed by a great demon has taken it upon himself to go on a murderous rampage in the name of his infernal master. This cannot be allowed to transpire. Go and fulfill your destiny by bringing this man, Balthizar, to meet his own."
As the statue's visage froze back into smooth, motionless marble, Thaltos rose to his knees and muttered an oath of loyalty to the gods.
Standing up and taking the Shears of Atropos from their niches on a nearby altar, he exited his resting place between tasks, a temple high on a remote mountain pillar of rock. Reaching up over his shoulder to lay the blades of the deadly scimitars against his back, where they used the electric field of his own body to stay in place, Thaltos began his descent along the winding stairs leading to the mountain's base. |
