B]Character Name:[/B] ~Eli Xenos
Age: Inconceivable + 8 [But appears 16]
Gender: Male
Race: Embodiment/Incarnation/Devine Entity
Appearance: (http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2010/236/5/d/Blazing_angel_by_sakimichan.jpg)
Appearance wise, he is a lighter and more kinder version of Koty, because he is Koty's counterpart, God. It was deemed appropriate to have the appearance of Koty's current one, just nice.
-Eyes are purple-ish blue.
Alliance: North (True one is: Sliph)
Personality (one paragraph minimum): ~Eli is a fatherly amending person. Who has a certain air of command without force. Merely the kind of confidence that he is asking not just something that needs to be done of his followers, but what is best for all involved. There is a little room for exceptions, and rarely a door open for debate. While he will listen to those who disagree, with an apprising smile. All in all ~eli is Eli, with one slight difference. His silent loyalty to Sliph colors his choices in inscrutable ways.
Inventory (Weapons, Equipment, Etc):
Combat Level : 5
- Magic Level: 5 (never will be above 5, even if he becomes an Embodiment again.)
- Physical Strength: 5
Character's History (Minimum 3 Paragraphs): Eli was sent from heaven as the embodiment of Hope to keep Koty in Line. But truthfully, unknown to others, he is actually an Avatar of god, God himself taking a human form, but limited in power. This was so if Koty ever became unsealed and a threat to the rest of creation, he could stop his other half.
He died in the Plexian war, sealing his memories in his spirit as he was to reincarnate. Here is where his spirit went on an interesting journey, lured by Sliph into a new prepared vassal, Eli was born to a new body without his memories unsealed. Sliph experimented on him in many ways, and even with this treatment, this Eli had a well developed loyalty for Sliph. ~Eli memories were unsealed with no emotional attachment to them, while he does have Eli memories he does not care too much about them. He is undyingly loyal to Sliph, and willing sacrificed his life for Sliph, the one thing ~Eli accomplished even being born into Sliph lab, was that he had not sinned, strange.
Upon returning to the North he sat upon his throne. You see Eli had set his successor to be his reincarnation should he die. Since this is his reincarnation, ~Eli is his successor. He will transform into the Embodiment of Creation again in front of all the Seraphim. His throne becoming his “itemâ€.
Due to Sliph’s experiments, he is also slightly weaker than he would have been, this is expressed through him being a level 5, instead of 6.
RP Sample (Depending On Combat Level):
A higher class Marid Merchant approached the new arrivals, the Marid seemed to be a normal humanoid person that was vaguely male. Casing the new arrival, the Merchant used rather weak magic to conjure a table in-front of the two, it was filled with trinkets, jewelry, artistic weapons, and of coarse unique foods. This table was mostly dragon-themed in terms of the wares. However, there were also Pieces inspired by the history of the Marid, including a shash that told in stitched art how the Anrufe woke up their creator, a jewel was sewn into it. Obviously, it did not tell the tale in words, but in stylistic pictures.
"Would you like something to commemorate your travels to this place and what you have experienced in what lead you to here? Knowledge can always use a reminder of its existence." said the Merchant in a respectful tone without actually urging a purchase.

I really don't know if I'm comfortable with this.
-
Me either man...
-
It already been approved that this character does have Eli's spirit and memories. I am balancing his power so that he isn't some God mod Embodiment like before. Additionally, I have done solid RPing for this, not like I asked out of nowhere.
I understand your uneasiness about it. However I have no intention of abusing having an embodiment, regardless of his loyalties. Hell, most of my RPing will be something involving romance. North will remain neutral to the rest of everything else.

Epic Picture
But since he's Eli, one of the main godly embodiments in the SP universe shouldn't he be level 6?

Not anymore. The reasons for that are TBR
-
TBR?
-
To be reavealed.
-
Look, my problem is this: We told Ino she couldn't have Eli if she left, same with Orph and his characters. She left. She came back and wanted Eli. We told her no. He's dead. Her fault. So it feels kinda low giving Cap this character.
-
Approved.
-
Wait, only one approval is needed now?
-
I want to ask what you guys mean by embodiment?
-
Essentially a superpowered magical being, almost like a minor god, embodying something. Some are emotions, and some are elements, Eli is creation.
-
Eh, kinda what Nik said, except a BIT more. Minor God isn't entirely correct, it would be more accurate to say they are, in effect, the Gods of SP. And no, Nik, one approval isn't all that is necessary.
-
We actually allow gods to play?
-
They only have control over the force they govern(barring magic, of course, but any force can simply not let them use their own). For example, Emptiness cannot control Time, and Space can't control Chaos, ect.

Epic Picture
I watching the person who makes those. Her digital paintings of people are beuatiful <3
-
But this one's been contested by 2 members and there's a copy of it in the Accepted Characters area.
-
Yeah...I really dunno why, to be honest.

I would like to go back to this point. I was more comfortable with this when it seemed like someone who thought he was Eli because well rightly, Eli should be gone because Ino left.

My thoughts exactly. That, and the whole this-is-the-embodiment-of-Creation-and-the-Complete-who-is-all-that-remains-of-the-Perfect-and-Imperfect-besides-Nisorin's-characters.

No, the above explanations are inaccurate.
Long before the dimensional plane (existence as we know it) was created, there lived a race known as the Perfect who lived outside of the dimensional plane (North, Erebus, East, and West were the four realms which they inhabited. Only North remains today, above the dimensional plane) in harmony, able to control the forces of existence around them. After creating a companion race, the Imperfect, which later rebelled, the Perfect gave their own powers flesh, and thus the forces became "alive".
The embodiment of Time IS time itself given a body, Anarchy IS Anarchy, etc. A member may request ONE embodiment (though this may change in our request overhaul, to a degree) and the embodiment can not be used to godmode. Generally this means no using the embodiment to the benefit of an empire, and no using the embodiments to kill mortals, etc. Generally embodiments are requested to change the plot in a big way. Last season, they were one of the main points which the plot revolved around. A civil war between the embodiments was sort of a sub-plot to the staff-sponsored events last season revolving around Plex, the embodiment killer.

But Eli has already been approved for Cap:

That's as a non-embodiment reincarnation.
-
Alright, I understand that Ino lost Eli as a punishment, however Hawk first made this character, and then Ino adopted him and took to the Eli level he was. If we are going off of the point of the RPer owns the soul/spirit, then this is Hawk charter in the same why I may RP Kurai, but she isn't mine to just do with as I please.
If Ino came back, yeah I'd have a lot to work out with her. However, I've already Roleplayed most of this, and I am even requesting it as a level 5 for role-play reasons I'd rather not go into. But the long and short of it is, this Eli is the reincarnation of Eli, and that does mean he is Eli in spirit and appearance but is not a "complete". His reincarnation is the "successor" for the sake of this request. He does have Eli memories.
I will not be Godmodding this character to take over the planes, and I have stated pretty much how I would be RPing him, so I am unsure what is really be contested here.
Also Nik, the only reason I posted in your Calto topic is because I killed him. I would like it, that since you are not a mod or Admin, that you keep out of this. That would be greatly appreciated.
-
For me its less along the lines of "HES INOS CHARACTER BAWWW" and more along the lines of it seriously lessens the impact of his death being a result of her leaving.
-
Even though one of my problems is that, yeah... its Ino's character, and he is dead. I'm having a larger problem with the fact that he's allied with an actual empire. If i was in North, i wouldn't want my leader to be truly loyal to some gems. In addition, all because he is a reincarnation, doesn't mean he is the successor.
-
One.
Sliph isn't an Empire, sure he has great influence in most of my crap, but he doesn't lead them nor would have a desire to. Just because he has a loyalty to Sliph doesn't mean Sliph can point at someone and and Eli would kill them, or turn them into a rose bush or something. It means that Sliph can request things of him and have a better chance of getting it, however he will stay true to being leader of the north in terms of neutrality.
Two.
I understand that, its was Ino character. However, I have request the spirit of him for the incarnation version of this character. That again, I would have some things to work out with Ino should she come back. However, I do not see it as lessening his death. He did die, and he is weaker for it, and other reasons. However, I have RPed this out, and I give my guarantee I am not abusing the character. Also, Since even his "item" was not explained. It feels a lot of his status as an Embodiment is unexplained thus up to interpretations For the argument of this request his reincarnation was designated the successor.
-
Provided that it isn't "Silph says jump, Eli says how high" then I will concede that this is fine in my books.
Simply because y'know, Creation is one hell of a force to deal with and also it SERIOUSLY breaks the current rules of Embodiments to have it running rampant on one characters whim who may or may not prove to be trying to take over the universe
-

We're cloning :P
---
I looked at the picture's info. I dunno if we can use commissions. :/
Because it was a paid for requested image by someone else. So...shouldn't we get permissions from the requester?
-
This is Eli we're talking about. The creator, the god of SP essentially. Whatever happens to him will effect me.
And also, Hawk was the original owner of Eli?!

Hesitantly approved, but if Ino does come back, you're right, you need to discuss this with her.
And yes, Eli was the original owner of Eli, back when he was only the embodiment of Hope.
ALSO slightest sign that you're using this to benefit any one party and you loose the privilege to play this character. That means no helping destroy a planet simply because Silph doesn't like it, no lending anyone superpowered weapons of Creation, etc. If you want to fight other embodiments, go right ahead, and if a mortal attacks you, go right ahead, but understand that whoever plays an embodiment can godmode so easy it's not even funny, and that usually means harsh penalty. So when the embodiment is Eli (or Koty for that matter, we gave Orph a lotta baggage about godmoding because of his character), the penalties are all that more severe.
