HOUNDS OF BASKERVILLE
Sentient shadow dogs. Rumours have it that every dog in his control has a name, and used to be alive. His love for dogs caused him to bring them back as his hound dogs, but one thing is for sure – the leader of the hounds, one named Renegade – used to be his dog and grew up together with the Reaper. This also means that he has control over the shadows.
DEATH BECOMES YOU
Basic and advanced powers that comes with being Death. He could read and identify a person / soul, even if he had never seen them before. However it’s limited only to names and basic information, not the rest of their lives or profession unless he looks through their records in the jurisdiction library. Can also touch a person to die, but due to not being one of the originals Deaths ( born, not made ), this power is not as potent and requires effort. He can also become a real skeleton – which also allows him to detach his limbs ( including his head ), with a few restrictions however. All this adding with soul summoning and usage, you have a complete set of basic Reaper skills.
SMITING
Comes with every being that was born as the angels, although the Vitariitius ( death angels ) had it on a darker scale compared to the Vindexilius ( guardian angels ). His may not be as strong as the guardian angels’, but it was still enough to cause considerable damage on demons. Rarely used, however. Prefers to use his conventional scythe and other weapons ( guns, knives ) during battle.
FASTER, STRONGER
As one of the angels, he is naturally fast, in any means possible. This makes up for the strength department. He is stronger than average humans and could lift a car, but it was nowhere comparable to a demon’s strength. In return, they are slow in movements, allowing the both of the angel races to fight fairly.
RAPID HEALING
Depending on how potent his magical energy at that time, wounds inflicted on him take a very short time to heal, but also depending on how heavy the damage is. This in turn will consume his magical energy and affect his ability to cast spells.
At the age of 97, he was married to another Vitariitius Death just like himself, and she gave birth to two children – one named Franz Von Stauffenberg, Jr and Sylvia Henrietta Von Stauffenberg. Things seemed to be rosy at that moment, until a threat occurred that could breach the balance between the supernatural and the humans, hence he was called forth for duty. Unfortunately for his squad, they met an unmatchable opponent, and they were all killed.
Time passed before he found himself waking up again in the same spot as he had died, having being resurrected by one of the top ranking Vitariitius angels – none other the one and only and first Lady Death herself. Having suffered temporal amnesia due to the impact of the murder, it was a while until he recovered his memories, but by then his children have grown up, and his wife was dead by the same people who had murdered him.
It would’ve been hurtful – had it been that he was the same person before and after. Adopting the name Vincent Raffaelo Legato in honour of his reviver – Maryvessa Legato, he was anything but nice. While Franz is pleasant, Vincent is snarky and rude, filled with morbid humour. The whole personality switch was part of the cons from being revived without his memories, and by the time he recovered them, he no longer desired to be his old self. Despite this, he still loved his kids and the friends that still stuck with him even with the rapid personality switch. Some traits remained, for instance his care and love for children and smaller animals, as well as his lack of ability to flirt with the opposite gender… or flirting in general. One very noticeable trait that is on Vincent but not on Franz is his hunger and addiction for power, which led to him thwarting the previous leader of the Death Angels, and thus declaring the throne for himself ( though it was a good thing in hindsight – the previous leader was a manipulative person, and had his own views regarding how the balance should be maintained, albeit twisted and harmful ). Having roamed the living for quite a long time, his outlook on life has been rather sardonic, but he can be sympathetic to the people who actually deserved it. Now in current times he mainly spends his time drinking ( even though rarely getting drunk by human alcohol ) and observing people chasing about their lives, as well as keeping order within the Department of Otherworldly Affairs and leading them – the very organization that keeps track of the supernaturals roaming within the human world, as well as keeping balance in check.
