Embodiment of Heat, Faotemaru
Age: Newborn once he changes over. Gender:MaleRace:EmbodimentPlace Of Birth:False Heaven, or what remains of it.OCCUPATION:Father Personality: Faotemaru does not think highly of himself and finds himself scared in front of many situations to the point where all hope seems to drain from him....
Or, that was how he used to be.
Faotemaru as an embodiment is utterly different now. The heat that radiates from him is filled with passion, and the desire to not only live, but to allow others to live, and to instill his newfound strength into those that do not have it. No longer is he depressed, constantly fearful of gods that could smite him at a moment's notice, feeling useless at random intervals... Now, he lives with a tenacity to live to the fullest, to be the father to his children that he never could be before because of his negative outlook, and to give the heat of his blazing soul to those in need of it. Nothing is a mystery now, and no longer does he feel the need to constantly be saddened. He has forever to make up for all the evil he has done, and if he dies before forever ends, so what? He would have done all that he needed to do.
Alliance: Himself, his family, and those in need.Biography: For the biography, I will just link you two topics. They should be more than enough.
http://shatteredplanes.com/forum/index.php?topic=4409.0 Faotemaru's old topic. This has everything before the change to being an embodiment.
http://shatteredplanes.com/forum/index.php?topic=4096.0 This has everything else to do with Faotemaru, including his transformation to being an embodiment. Dossier topics are so useful.
Weapons: - The Scythe of Katherine
- Heat of this soul.
Magic Level:6, plain and simple.
Fears:- He no longer fears. There is now happiness in himself, and for everything.
There are concerns for certain things, but they no longer are significant enough for the alchemist to worry.
He, still, cares greatly for his family, and would be beside himself in tears if they were to die.
At least three fears required.
Interests:- His family.
- Those whose souls still remain unkindled by the ravages of time and life itself.
- His Father, and what he did for him.
- False Heaven. How did it end up the way it did? What did Halsey do to let it end up in the state it is in?
- Discovery of those whose souls are already blazing with inspiration and passion.
At least five interests are required.
Aspirations:- Apologize to Zere. He had been sent on a fool's errand all this time.
- Alight the spirits of all those that want the chance to do something.
- Forever live with his family in happiness.
At least three aspirations are required.
ORIENTATION:Straight.RELATIONSHIP/MARITIAL STATUS:Single FatherOTHER:Upon the approval of this character, the previous character, Faotemaru Veintarlach Derahnad is forfeit and no longer in the RP, as well as the Prophet once this Faotemaru enters the RP. Other than that...
It's a freaking Embodiment, you tell me! Anything special I need to know?
Define soul in how you're using it.
When it refers to 'enkindling,' or 'finding souls to blaze with passion' or whatnot, it's referring to the Embodiment of Heat's mission and purpose. As you may recall, the Embodiment of Heat is derived off the fact that living things need heat to not only survive, but to thrive, in all meanings of the word. Heat as in temperature, and heat as in 'getting fired up,' or 'a passion of a thousand suns.'
Basically, Faotemaru is to find people and gift them this feeling, to give them a new perspective on life and self growth. And once he transforms into the embodiment, he must defeat the Negi inside him. "To change the world, you must first change yourself." This transformation is the very first step of his journey.
Also, do you already have a lvl6 or is this first?
Faotemaru is my only Level 6, and he's no longer part of the RP once the Embodiment comes into play, so I'll still retain only one level 6.
Also as a note, every embodiment has an item which is their Achilles Heel of sorts, the item which will result in their death. That item is hardly ever in the possession of the embodiment. I recommend you do a forum-wide search of the word "Embodiment" and digest all you need to know.
The Scythe of Katherine is a Divine Weapon [Link:
http://shatteredplanes.com/forum/index.php?topic=2129.0 ]. Normally, the more one uses a divine weapon, the more they get attached to it and it becomes a weakness. However, due to some of the effects of becoming an embodiment, this process is going to be sped up half a million times to the point where the Scythe becomes synonymous with the embodiment. A touch on this weapon could harm Faote. And, all that negativity that Faote sheds (Including the Negi!) has to go somewhere, so the scythe literally becomes his exact opposite: Cold, deathly, black, something a divine weapon should not be.
The effects done onto the scythe cannot be reversed at all.
No, it will not control life, nor does it have anything to do with life itself, but rather how it sustains life. You can have a living being, living with no impurities and at the fullest health one could possibly expect from a life form, but if that being has no drive to do anything, no real motivation or will to continue on, that being is more or less going to sit around and do, well, absolutely nothing and die off eventually, never once really fulling any self drive to do anything.
The extent of what Faotemaru could do with his embodiment status is take this away, leaving a living being with not only a lack of a drive to do anything, but also a lack of any real willpower to pull anything off. Sure, they may have their magic, but it's not really useful if you don't feel like doing anything.
The Embodiment of Heat's purpose is to make sure that this doesn't happen. To combat this cold, stationary existence, the Embodiment of Heat brightens up the very spirit, often supplementing power, encouragement, and the drive to do anything, to achieve everything that lays before them. This Embodiment more resembles a state of being or a mindset of a person, but if the planes did not have this, there wouldn't be anything done by anyone. No races would go forth and create, no one would manifest these great achievements into their lives.
It is very, very hard to explain. You can compare it to Blood Dragons, where their flames and whatnot comes from their sheer will and fighting spirit. If these dragons had none of this, they could not manifest their forms, and they would lay dormant forever, Cold, bitter, and alone. However, through belief in oneself and a passion to do things, they aren't cold and bitter, they appear warm and radiating with excitement and a need to do things.
Another example is the stars. They are super, super hot, capable of creating heat up to the millions in various temperatures. Without these things, life (or planets, energy, or just about anything) would not only be impossible, but also utterly, well, empty. And cold. The sun, with it's heat and light, helps life and maintains it's many intricacies, but ultimately does not create it (Usually existence does or spirit.)
Along with this example, is how Solstici maintain their energy as well. If there is a force behind these things like the Embodiment of Heat, it makes a lot more sense how these creatures draw power from the sun and moon, or just about everything around them: they were already there, but they revel in the energy around them, which more often than not is received from a sun, or heat.
With this all in mind, the main element of the Embodiment is Fire/plasma/heat in general, with an added bonus of possibly creating stars and star-related attacks (This makes up the offensive techniques of the embodiment, whereas the other half is more focused on the mindset and the energy to manifest things into existence through willpower.). He fulfills his role as an Embodiment by providing life with the energy to not only achieve things, but to also sustain life. Of course a living being could have magic to sustain it for them, but most of the time, these beings that do not have magic need something else in place, as magic could easily create this 'heat.'
If you like, 'Embodiment of Stars' could be a better fit for this embodiment, as I only chose Heat due to the nature of it.
