I GOT A JAR OF DIRT, I GOT A JAR OF DIRT, I GOT A JAR OF DIRT,
Character Number- 2*Adoption*


Name- Malachi Xanatos

Age- 29

Gender- Male

Sexuality- Straight

Appearance-

Malachi ready for battle*minus the facial hair

Malachi outside of battle

Now that he’s finished growing, this 25 year old male has hit an impressive six foot stature. While he's tall however, he is not a wall of cumbersome muscle like some mercenaries might be. He’s just more like a thin sapling, slim but can be surprisingly strong. Doubly so in the sense that he looks gaunt and weak, but reveal his strength when he deems fit to. Besides his height as far as visual appearance he has raven-wing black hair that cascades down till it spreads out along his upper back. Then you come to his eyes which are somewhat dark, almost dried blood toned brown. Just below a slightly hooked hawk-like nose his mouth sits and is most often seen cracked in a lopsided grin. That leaves nothing to the imagination as far as whether he’s sane much to the vexation of those around him.


Though arguably it is far worse when the lunatic isn't smiling as that tends to be when heads begin to roll. At least if the ones he’s around aren't stronger than himself then it might become a high violence spar. When it comes to attire this strange male tends to wear a tunic formed from black leather and affixed to his lanky upper half through tightened straps of leather with iron buckles. If you were to think about it, the thing would seem to possess the makings of a straight-jacket.

The slim pants are made much the same as the top leading down to a sturdy pair of boots meant for hard work and long trips. This black outfit is one among many, and just so happens to be his training attire. He won’t be caught in them often but he does have some ‘nicer’ clothes he claims he bought. When it’s far likelier that some Sekkain lord found the red and black ensemble missing from his clothes-chest but he does have one other outfit he came by honestly. It’s the armor he wears into battle, a dark iron contrivance of plate mail with a ragged cloak the perfect shade of blood red as to make the gaunt man look like a vampire. On his right hip rides a long sword, on his left sits a dagger in the event a smaller blade would suit the fight better.

Personality- Bloodthirsty Charismatic Vindictive

While insanity is an irrevocable part of who Malachi is now, he is not merely that one dimensional. Indeed he can love and feel joy and pain like any ‘boringly sane’ person. But what he finds joy in or feels love toward might scare some people. For example he has known of no other love half as strong as what his young partner Yutaji engenders in his very being. The love of battle is second only to the bond he shares with his equally mental life-partner.

When he’s not neck deep in a violent fight or talking about getting into one, Malachi can be an oddly charismatic individual. Who could put someone at ease around him by simply talking to them as if they mean something to him, unless Yutaji just scared the whey out of the person. Even then, if the person isn't running for their lives from a perceived impending and messy death; he may be able to pour on enough charm to talk them down from their fright.

Another side of his personality is an unflinching loyalty to his comrades; this would have made him a valuable part of the Sekkain forces. Instead he shows this loyalty to the Tainted legion, in following every order as close to the letter as possible. Or in other cases he’d willingly dive into a fight that would otherwise lose the Tainted forces a soldier. At least this will be the case once he’s something more than a Taintling, though he tries to show his ‘classmates’ some loyalty as well. If the situation calls for it or they haven’t seriously vexed him in some way, lest they learn of his worst quality vindictive streak only matched by his patience in waiting for a time to strike. Just to be certain that when he does then it will thoroughly make his point on why he should not be trifled with.

Rank- Bone, Jaeger Shell


History-

Malachi’s younger years are something of a mystery, even to the man who lived them. Part of this could be amnesia or he could simply be using that word to cover a past he’d rather not speak of. Regardless; the gaunt male’s adult life was comprised of training in various towns as part of a band of mercenaries. At first this particular crew found work on both sides of the war and made money easily enough. Till someone in the Sekkain side found out they were peddling their services out to the Tainted legion in the days before the tainted ones lost the tainted Karma.

Malachi’s then superior made the decision that they’d throw their lot in with the Tainted forces entirely. Even if it still got them all watched like hawks by some of the less trustful of the tainted riders. Unlike the Sekkains who probably would have locked them all up the Tainted soldiers seemed content to let the mercenaries play meat shield. A role they were quite good at as they engaged the ground forces and were almost always the first to offer to take missions that would have cost a Tainted soldier his life if he or she failed. This set up worked well enough for a time, till the ‘meat shields’ as the Tainted ones had come to call the group took one risk too many.

Thus disbanding the group in one fell swoop as all but Malachi died in a hail of arrows and breath weapons, it was this failed run that would haunt the man. Resulting in the lone survivor going slowly but surely insane from survivor’s guilt. The result of which led him to deliberately fall off the map out of some heretofore unknown feeling of guilt at surviving when his comrades had not. The tainted dragon who plucked him from the road to unceremoniously drop him in a hatching cared nothing for such an outlook on life. At least, nothing for the thoughts of a less than sane human, it was more a concern that all the young hatching from that foul bedlam survived to strike at the Sekkain forces.

Up until one particularly nightmarish bone dragonling approached him, this turn of events had left the burgeoning lunatic more off-balance than usual. In fact, when the young creature wanted to verify if he possessed the twin to the crystal on the beast’s side, that had been the first moment Malachi had realized he’d been handed something of that sort. Upon showing the requested stone and feeling the sensation of the young thing slithering a mental tendril into his mind however; a change occurred.

As his new bond-mate had chattered on about things that would have gotten him a disgusted look from someone sane, Malachi laughed heartily and agreed with the little beast entirely, aside from the whole ‘eating part of his dragon thing. The fact none of the older riders present so much as looked the pair’s way, at least minus the recognition of Malachi, helped the man to further forget why he’d become a wanderer without purpose. Especially thanks to how he was unwittingly given a new purpose as a true soldier to the Tainted legion.

Since Graduating, Malachi at first nearly went back to the wanderer's life he once held entirely. But, chancing upon a 'pack' that formed during lessons in their days as taintlings changed that. Now, not only are they part of the pack, but 'bones' under their Viral Alphess and her mighty Dragon. The pair look forward to many chances to sow fear and pain unto their enemies, they simply champ at the bit waiting to be commanded in battle for now.

Pet(s)- A black pelted, red eyed Cerberi he decided to call Baskerville for reasons only Malachi knows. He's old enough he would have just been leaving his mother when he latched onto Mal during a Shell mission under his Virals.



The Dragon

Yutaji
Male
(Ruin Ossifrage x Chaos Mazhrekan)
[/align]

Name- Yutaji

Age- 6

Gender- Male

Element- Bone (Fire)

Appearance-

CHIRP SKETCH:
*that she ok'd me coloring in* of just hatched Yutaji with the red egg mess staining his facemask n body

Chirp arts of Yutaji cleaned up: Posted Image

Kia Art of full body Yutaji! CLICKY!

Much like his tall gaunt human half, Yutaji is liable to grow more lithely powerful than glaringly so. Especially with how thin he was at his hatching; that will not be much of a handicap in a fight as he grows in age. Thanks to how he was hatched already degrading, his facial structure is quite distinctive; with a calcified mask of a sort over his face that almost looks like it could be an avian skull somewhat like his mother’s own facial structure. Though it has the fangs and spurs common to the face of a fire dragon. The short muzzle beneath the skull mask has that same ‘skinned’ quality as the rest of his body, even as it appears to be the least wet looking area, for all the good it does in not making people green.

While the rest of his lanky body is covered in plates of bone alongside erratic spikes that jut out all along his shoulders, and the back half of his spine and tail. Leading up along the ‘arm’ bones of his wings, like jagged calcified fangs. Then on down the back edge of his limbs till he gets an especially sharp barb of bone at the elbow for his front legs, leading to a wicked curved spur on what would be the dewclaw of a mammalian beast. This spur might not be large, but it could hurt if he managed to hook someone with it in a fight. Leading down from what look like the tips of his exposed ribs sits another set of spikes that are just as painful looking as the wing spikes. Though, at his young age they would be more annoyance than a true threat to life and limb. When he reaches his full size they would likely make any ‘bear hugs’ an enemy got from him quite the hazard to their health.

While the majority of his form is a mess of tendons and bones and plates the odd fleshy growths that have no sense of feeling or even blood to them throws that whole vibe of ‘skeletal’ dragon out the window. On the other hand, the remaining flesh and scales did show what color he might have been if he was born a true Fire dragon. It’s hard to tell right off but there is a diluted red tint to his hide, which darkens in spots till it’s almost the same shade of dried blood maroon as his gem. This color may well stay in his bones as a testament to what he could have been if he wasn't born to the Tainted horde. Said gem that had grown on his side with part of one edge seeming to have formed under his ‘external rib’ on the lower left side of his torso, near where a ‘hanging rib’ would be. Looking strikingly like a dried droplet of blood thanks to its tear-drop shape.

Until the hellish dragon completes his transformation his mouldering hide will likely look like spare muscle and tendon draped over his form for some time yet. With the random spires and spikes of bone to serve as hangers for the macabre entity. Not that this would bother the beast nor his human, it helped with the scare effect after all. His moderately rot-shredded, rip-edged wings that look like so much broken rigging like from a boat when folded onto his back also contribute to the look. With the marching on of time, as he grows and loses more and more external flesh there is no denying he'll become a living skeleton. It simply remains to be seen as to whether his skeletal form will continue to look red toned. It’s not nearly as obvious as the rest of his other visual quirks, but along the ridge of his spine lies a string of much smaller spikes that are connected to each other by a shredded film of rotting skin. The main reason this frill isn't as obvious is primarily due to it lying flat to his spine along the back of his neck and the ridge of his tail unless he's excited.





Personality- Alluring, Sadistic, Truculent

This particular fight crazy freak oddly likes humming songs when not talking to his human or others about committing horrific acts like he's admiring a cloud formation. The humming doesn’t quite give off the creepy vibe thankfully. That occurs when he starts putting words to the tune, coupled with a voice that can exude all the innocence of a child. Especially once he realizes he really is scaring someone, or facing an enemy as occasionally he'll boast in song about what the skeletal beast would do to his enemies.

When not being a boastful jack-wagon this lunatic lizard with wings likes to seemingly flirt with anything female. Species is no concern either, he'll happily try to tempt a female closer regardless of his age. Though if they weren't put off by his looks the comment that he’d ‘wait to eat your pretty heart or eyes till AFTER having fun’ might do it, if it doesn’t get his fool bony arse stomped out. Clearly this male doesn’t seem to realize that SOME things are liable to get him throttled or worse if his nasty lil thoughts leave his mouth. When he does manage to lure someone close and not spook them off his humming can be quite interesting to listen to however.

In a fight there will be no question as to what lengths his sadism will go. So how his enemies die let alone how quickly they part the mortal coil would depend on his mood; Or how glaringly bored he and his rider might be at the time. Especially if he comes across an interesting or particularly strong opponent, this will lead to his sadistic nature and his love of battle to override any previous orders given to him and his rider. If punished for it later his only response will be that it was to remove a future threat to the Tainted legions machinations.
