Character Name: Dieter Heydrich
Physical apperance: He is about 5'8, with unkempt medium length brown hair, and brown eyes. He appears to be about 20 years of age. His face rarely changes, though he can show snarls and grimaces in moments of passion. He still maintains some of his former grandiose movements, and will tip an invisible hat to passerby. His wardrobe generally features warm clothing unsuited to the weather, and the fabric is always rather fine. His skin is almost grey, and at times seems to suddenly glow with inner light.
Personality: After the fall of his empire, he is nothing so much as apathetic, preferring to revel in the glories of the past than to exist in the new world. He is generally polite, a bit distant at times, feeling unreal.
Occupation: Once the leader of the largest religion and empire in the world.
Biography: He was born to a moderately wealthy merchant family, he had love for study and neglected human relationships in favor of his many books. As he grew he took a secret liking to magick, a new way to study, a new way to learn. He always had a fear of death, so he sought a path to defeat it, the magic of the dead. When his parents discovered his passion, they threatened to kill him; he set fire to the house and ran away, all survived. As he retreated into the night, he made his living doing whatever was required. As he lived alone more and more, he began to see humans as weak and not deserving of life. As these thoughts became more and more pronounced he became more and more distrustful of the sentient races.
After a while, he began to grow past his distrust, seeking followers and compatriots. He built up a base of power, and struck out, converting more and more along the way, eventually coming into possession of Ethral, and a war against all demonkind. This constant fighting weakened his forces beyond repair, and eventually the survivors moved in, forcing his cult into hiding, and eventually nonexistence.
To this day, he still exists in Ethral City, hiding in a crypt somewhere, only emerging to find food, and to try to meet new people, some evidence of his former stature, some evidence of his divine will manifest. Though he still retains his eternal youth and existence, all of his powers have waned, the support network that granted his godhood gone. Now, he remains even weaker than he was before, just another shade of the past.

Transformation:
Name of Transformation: Carrion God

Number of points: 0 (Not able anymore.)
Description of ability: He goes into a trance, and his soul comes forth to slay the enemy. It appears vaguely humanoid, with a vulture like head. It has four arms that end in wicked claws. Everything about it is overly thin, as if it suffers from famine, but it is so tall. Even though it is an extension of Dieter, it does give an unending hunger while it is active. This manifestation of Dieter's godhood grants more powerful spells, the ability to rip souls directly from the body in order to devour them, and immense speed. Since it is a spirit, most weapons will not even touch it, much less harm it, and it can manipulate magick in such a way so it is not very likely to strike it.
