Physical Description:
Mortal Form: Tacitus appears as a male in his early thirties with already greyed hair and two prominent black horns protruding from his head. He prefers to wear white shirts with green cargo pants and boots, regardless of formality. Over this he wears a trenchcoat magically enhanced to hold what he needs. To finish off the look he wears a green visor, wraps his hands to keep his hand from twitching too much while wielding a weapon, while prominently displaying his GPD badge for all to see.
Immortal Form: As the ticking of time remains ever constant, as does Tacitus's form. The first of two exceptions in his form compared to that of his mortal body is that his badge is gone, replaced by a chain around his neck that constricts around his neck if one tries to remove it. Upon this chain is a locket of sorts that hasn't been opened in three millenia. The second change is that the watch he wears upon his arm is not a single watch, but he seems to have more than three dozen watches, all with different times and completely different ways of tracking time. Although some don't appear to be tracking time.

Personality: Tacitus, in either form, is highly concerned with the wellfare of others and making sure plans go as they are laid out. While he is flexible, he is a bit overprotective as a GPD commissioner of the citizens of Gaia, but as a God this feeling only deepens. This is counteracted slightly as he knows he can't stop everything all the time, but he tries his hardest to always acheive the best end to any situation. This can sometimes get in the way of his destined neutrality as the God of Time. Other than that he can seem completely random at times and sometimes what he does has absolutely no meaning.

History (clarified): Tacitus was born of the religous tendencies of a small group of pagans who were dedicated to the pasage of time and what was to come. In an age none left remember, Tacitus was a Pagan God of Fate. Against the will of the high council at the time, he took a mortal as a bride, without raising her status to that of an immortal, fearing it would corrupt her purity. To stave off death of himself, but more importantly his wife, he made a plea to the council and offered up a solution he knew they would think worse than death. Tacitus set into motion a long string of events that would force him to forget everything he was, his wife, and everything he knew. He also wove in a clause that would slowly recover his memories, if they could be found. As he slowly began losing himself he set his wife into stasis until a day he could be with her once more and banished himself from the heavens. Over the long years he had many mortal forms, and skipped through time, not aging for long periods, but always forgot with each death. In one of his more recent forms his son that had come from what would have been his future killed him and stole the powers the body contained. To make sure his father would never oppose him, he hired three men to always track and kill him, the Gorokian Hand, a band of three Ancients, with power rivaling the gods themselves when working as a unified force. The cycle of killing continued until the stasis on Tac's wife was unlocked and she was returned to the mortal realm, though lacking her memories as well. The two were fated to meet and lived a life as farmers, until the Gorokian Hand found Tac. He was forced to watch them rape his wife until they killed them all one by one, Tac being the last. In a vengeful rage, and with his dying breath he was flooded with memories and energies as the killing of his wife took him back to the day he was sentenced to death by the Council. In his rage he leveled the countryside with one fell swoop and passed into his next mortal body. This is the body that has been seeking his pasts lives, always searching and always finding just one more clue. The clause to break the cycle had been set into motion and he was remembering things of his past lives at an alarming rate. Could he be returning to his natural state?

Currently his wife has been ressurected by the weakened Gorokian Hand and was released because she had no knowledge of Tacitus they could use to find his new form.

Tacitus spends most of his Immortal days looking through the timelines to find his past, and once found he will assume his proper role as the keeper of The Wheel. The Wheel is a hampster wheel inside a cage with a little guinea pig looking creature that aslways keeps running. Oh, and that whole Time God stuff too ^_^

Weapon(s):
Mortal Form: Tacitus prefers to use two magically intelligent weapons, pistols in fact, of his own creation that feed off him in a sort of symbiotic relationship. These weapons confer upon him certain abilities when feeding enough power and he in turn gives them abilities such as regenerating ammo. (unlimited ammo basically) Caritas is colored green and the colors swirl as streeks of orange run through it, Tac wields Caritas in his right hand normally. Orcus is a flaming orange that pulsates with orange light, swirling with color as green streaks run though it. Caritas is calm and peacekeeping, while Orcus is always trying to make Tac blow something up. Each pistol seems to be twice to three times the size of a normal 9mm pistol, but weighs the same. In combination with Tac's GPD armor they can be modified to larger sizes and alternate uses.
Immortal Form: Aetas would prefer to use two balanced maces of an above average size, one larger than the other, both made from an alloy of Blackrock and Temporum. Blackrock is a dwarven metal that acts as both metal and stone, whichever favors the wielder. While Temporum acts as it were both a part of the timeline and outside it, whichever is more favorable to the wielder. These maces are linked to his mortal form's weapons in term of intelligence and name, but not power transfer or consciousness.

Abilities:
Mortal Form: Due to his links to the court of the gods he has an unsually strong control of divine magics, which he uses mostly for healing. In addition to this he has moderate control over the passage of time and links between points in time such as portals. More importantly he can feel the Threads of Fate as he once could, if not bend them to his will, allowing him a glimpse into the future or possibly events to come. A secondary explaination for this future sight might lie in his position as God of Time.
Immortal Form: With increased connection to the gods, and being one as such, he has even greater control of divine magics. In addition to his normal control of time in his mortal form he can move about it at will in order to find himself more properly. As with being the God of Time Aetas gains the ability to sense distortions in time, correct them if they are out of control, and even cause them and change certain events in the past only.

Weaknesses:
Mortal Form: Besides the lessened weaknesses of a human, Tacitus is far too trusting, but as far as physical and magical frailties go, he cannot stand up well against the elemental energies or soul manipulation.
Immortal Form: If the passage of time were ever to stop in its entirety, Aetas would cease to be. Aetas has a certain affinity for timepieces, so seeing one destroyed can either set him into a rage or break his morale.
