Rubius

Portrait
Description
He is a tall and dark man, his expression somewhat cold and distant on occasion, or perhaps sad would be more accurate. His eyes are a copper red in shade but fade out into a pitless black when he calls upon his darker magics. His hair is jet black and his skin is lightly tanned, built like a man not unknown to labor. He is almost always well groomed and in the air around him hangs an alien scent of burned spices, carrying a sort of calming aroma to those who would breathe it in more deeply. Lordly in demeanor perhaps, there is an exotic aura about this man, and he is obviously not of the common ilk. Upon his right shoulder, if it is exposed, is a strange and somewhat foreboding mark emblazoned into his skin, he will answer few, if any, questions about its origin and purpose however. Those with enough knowledge about the lower planes, more specifically the Hells, will recognize it as the brand of Asmodeus, lord of Nessus and of all the nine hells. In all this, the observant can tell he is not entirely, or at all, human, touched by darker, chaotic powers and then made to give them order.

He approaches almost all situations like it is only natural for him to be in control. Sometimes seeming arrogant and prideful but then others open minded and helpful. A man who prides himself in knowledge and mastery of the ways of the magical weave, he has become quite proficient in its many uses over the years, though he still appears a somewhat young man. He does seem in many ways to be a kind of natural leader though, well learned in tactics and some matters of politics, good at giving commands and rallying those around him. Though above all things, he prides himself on knowing, be it the way to gain something, the way to get somewhere, or the way to break someone.

 Details

Full Name: Rubius De'Fian
RP Classes: Sorcerer/Disciple of Asmodeus

  Special Qualities:
   Evil Authority: At the command of a disciple of Asmodeus, all evil-aligned creatures within 50 feet that have fewer HD then the disciple must succeed at a Will saving throw (DC 10 + disciple class level + Cha bonus) or recognize the disciple as their superior. Affected creatures do not attack the disciple of Asmodeus and do as he commands as though affected by a mass suggestions spell. This mind-affecting ability lasts for 24 hours.

   Mark of Nessus: Few have the resolve necessary to confront Asmodeus himself, and he has learned to tap into this commanding authority. Whenever a creature would attack him, target him with a spell, or use spell-like or supernatural abilities against him, it must first succeed on a Will save (DC 10 + ½ his HD + Cha bonus). If it fails, it must select another target or take some other action. Once an opponent succeeds on the saving throw, it can not be affected again by his Mark of Nessus for 24 hours.
   In addition, once per round as a swift action, he can infuse a single natural attack with hellfire.
