Race: Caucasian
Fantasy Race: Super robot ninja-pirate-cyborg-samurai bear from space...
Ethnicity: Italian
Nationality: Rome
Economic Class:
Working class (has church "benefits")
Gender Identity: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Political Belief: Capitalist
Religious Belief: Devoted Manalist
Organization: Manalist Church
Occupation: Manalist Assassin
Skills:
Appearance: What people remember most about Angelus (other then the sound of his Exitus Rifle), is the pitch black, skin tight, kevlar body suit he wears. The suit is almost completely black, part of the arm behind the elbows red with a black M on his right shoulder. In addition, Angelus occasionally wears a ceremonial black cloak with a red M on the back.
Underneath this Angelus stands at six feet dead even, is a pale Caucasian and his body is in top physical condition for his age; However, his body IS showing signs of aging and the once toned muscles are slowly becoming decrepit with age. It is far more evident in his face that his age is catching up with him, his face becoming wrinkled and venerated; He has no hair, facial or otherwise.
Personality: Angelus is a killer without a conscience. Some men may begin to feel remoarse for their actions with time, but Angelus does not. Due to his upbringing in the Manalist church, Angelus is fanatical in the church's beliefs. Though he does not show it immensely, he tries to uphold the teachings he has learned to the best of his ability.
Angelus though, is mechanical in behavior, he sees life only as getting from point A to point B and leaves nothing open to discussion. So it is not all that surprising to find Angelus struggle with making things up on the fly when someone throws a monkey wrench into his plans. In retrospect, he is a sad individual and has grown to only see himself as a weapon; Also given his lack of a soul, he does not see an afterlife for himself and gives his all during any encounter- a man with nothing to lose is a dangerous opponent.
Angelus does not accept help and prefers to work alone, seeing the majority of man (with some exceptions) as weak either physically or mentally. He also tries not to show pain, showing pain is weakness and being a Manalist, he cannot show weakness. Angelus also seems quite confident in his abilitys, now seeing the obstacles he faces merely as challenges that Father Manala sets before him to complete. Angelus does have a code of honor, not above agreeing to certain terms of engagement with his opponent.
Story: Angelus was born and raised in Rome deep within the Manalist temples. As a young child, Angelus was put into training among many other children who would one day become some of the church's finest zealots. Pushed to his limits each and every day, Angelus was put through physical training by day, and taught the ways of Father Manala by night. Though his training was harsh, Angelus grew to become a highly trained killer at the age of ten, locating two terrorist cells and a terrorist ring leader by the age of eighteen.
However, the church's higher ups knew the dangers of their actions and so decided that only one could become "The Angel of Death."
Translation: Angelus and all of the other students had to hunt down and kill eachother until only one remained. For a time, this was all that Angelus did. Using everything he had learned, Angelus hunted down these would-be assassins and killed them one by one, coming close to being killed himself. Before long, only Angelus was left (or atleast so he thinks); The secret weapon the Manalists had been hoping for.
During his later years, Angelus worked as the church's private assassin; Devoting himself to finding and killing any who would dare oppose the church. If he was told to kill someone, he would do it without question. Even now inspite of his age, Angelus obeys his superiors without question; Completely unaware that his superiors are beginning to fear him and are keeping a close watch on him...

Powers: - Soulless: Not a power so much as a "defect" Angelus was born with. Angelus has no soul and while there is no machine or test to prove this, many have come to say he is. This defect has several good applications aswell as a rather large weakness. On the plus side, having no soul makes Angelus virtually immune to any form of supernatural phenomena, psychic or magical; What this simply means is, certain super natural powers or attacks simply do not effect him. However, if a spell or ability involves using conventional means, such as shooting fire, it will still hurt him.
On the negative side of things, having no soul inadvertently radiates a sense of discomfort to all those around him and depending on the mental state, can drive many to lash out at him blindly. This aura seems to be especially strong to those who have special powers, able to give them extreme migraines.
Weapon: - Exitus Rifle: Before Manala Energy weapons were designed, the military had always been experimenting with new ideas to try and come up with better and more dangerous weapons. This specialized sniper rifle is the gem of ballistic weaponry. Designed to fire magnetically accelerated bullets, this rifle ensures that ANY direct shot will either instantly kill the user's victim, or incapacitate them (usually by blowing off an arm, a leg, etc). Due to the velocity of the bullet, these lightning fast bullets can punch a hole through almost anything. However, due to the expenses of producing such a powerful death dealer, there are a VERY limited number still left in existence and have become something of a black market collector's item.
- Exitus Pistols: The younger, smaller brother to the infamous Exitus Sniper Rifle. Using the same mechanics, these six round pistols manage to deliver satisfying results that only pale in comparison to the Exitus Rifle itself. Unable to penetrate almost anything like it's big brother, a shot from one of these pistols is still more then enough to blast a hole through any conventional body armor.
- Short Swords: A simple pair of short swords sheathed on his hips used for close range combat.
Gadgets and Equipment - Cloaking Device: A special cloaking device that bends light around the user to create an almost perfect invisibility; However, recent modifications allow the user to safely fire without decloaking.
- Mask: The goggles Angelus wears serves as special binoculars that can see in different spectrum of light and also serves as a gas mask. It is also equipped with a voice masking module that makes his voice even more mechanical then it already is.
- Kevlar Suit: The full body suit he wears helps protect against bullets!
Appearance: What people remember most about Angelus (other then the sound of his Exitus Rifle), is the pitch black, skin tight, kevlar body suit he wears. The suit is almost completely black, part of the arm behind the elbows red with a black M on his right shoulder.
