[Ramjammer]

Appearance: Anyone catching sight of Rasteva for the first time would naturally assume them to be a living individual clad in a towering suit of armor. This assumption proves to be mostly false as Rasteva is neither alive nor truly dead, further still the armor they are 'wearing' is very much a part of their physical form.

The armor in question is of a make and material not seen anywhere else, and stands several meters tall. The Daemon's considerable size can make using doorways a bit of a moot point as they cannot fit through mos of them. Unsurprisingly and to the chagrin of more than a few , Rasteva has been known to walk face first through walls in order to get into buildings.

Rasteva's "Head" is what makes up the Armor's helm. A single glowing "Eye" can be seen in the Helm's visor, and often moves from side to side of its own accord. The 'Eye' in question is not used for sight, but a more of a prop to allow anyone interacting with the Daemon to know when they are being directly addressed by them. This of course means that Rasteva does not make any facial expressions, and anyone interacting with them will have to suffice with vocal cues in order to understand their moods.

Clawed Gauntlets are what Rasteva uses for hands, and are surprisingly dexterous. This allows the Daemon to preform delicate tasks the same as anyone with regular hands.

Name:Rasteva

Age:Unknown. They probably don't even know.

Gender:None.

Race:Daemon.

Sexuality:None.

Personality:Rasteva's imposing stature, and rather terrifying appearance cause people to be wary of them at best. At worst they presume the Daemon to be an actual monstrosity bent on harming anyone crossing their path. Such reactions are not new to Rasteva and they have grown used to them, making no effort to correct anyone on the matter unless absolutely required to. This has led many occasions where the Daemon has engaged in battle long before anyone has bothered trying to speak with them. Inquiry reveals that Rasteva is far from malignant, only doing battle with anyone perceiving them to be a true Demon solely because they cannot be bothered to correct anyone on the matter. This means that Rasteva is more likely to make enemies than friends, and the Daemon often cares little for changing another's perceptions of themselves.

That aside, Rasteva is somewhat even tempered if a bit indifferent. They make no direct effort to cause harm to any around them, and are found to be quite well mannered. But getting their help in most matters is a bit of work as they can't see much reason for doing so beyond personal interest. Truly this makes reading Rasteva's true intentions difficult as the Daemon only ever does something because they either "Feel like it" or "Want to see what happens". There are a few that worry if the Daemon would outright turn on everyone at some point, for reasons only they truly know. Rasteva is quite confident and self assured as most of their kind tend to be, and is not prone to doubt in themselves. While a bit difficult to get on with sometimes and not one to shy away from throwing insults, the Daemon firmly believes that all beings are capable of greatness and feels it is a simple matter of finding it within. As such they are prone to making grand speeches in order to lift the spirits of the downtrodden. Results are very mixed.

Weapons: Rasteva can often be seen carrying a large Polearm into battle.​

​

Special Ability: Being a living suit of armor means that Rasteva is completely inorganic. This grants Rasteva immeasuarable strength and

stamina. As such they cannot be overpowered by traditional methods, and they do not tire.​

​

Style of fighting: A Master of Arms, Rasteva is well versed in the use of Bladed weapons after many Millennia of practice, and uses them with remarkable efficiency.

​

Bio:Daemons such as Rasteva have existed as long as there have been Gods. Though they are often confused with the more "Popular" Demons found in Myth and Legend, and do in fact posses a few similarities. Daemons, however are neither inherently Evil or Good by nature, often being described as ambiguous. Because of their tendency to travel far and wide throughout Realities and given their hard to define nature, Daemons carry a wide array of names. The most popular of these being called 'Djin'. Daemon are also prone to meddling in the affairs of mortals for no reason than to see what happens, occasionally giving them portions of their own power.

It tends to go about as well as one would expect.

All Daemon are driven by an unknown impulse to discover their true nature. Defining it only as a drive to be their "Complete Self", and Rasteva is no different in that regard. This does however means that Daemons that have found their "Complete Self" can be either beings of absolute Virtue, or true Monsters like the Demons they share their namesake with. It is with some degree of relief that many discover Rasteva to be less of a true Demon than they appear.

It is unknown how long Rasteva has existed in any form. And they either seem to not know, or particularly care. Even less is known where they truly come from.




Other: ((I should state that Rasteva is a Daemon which is NOT the same as a Demon, even though they seem alike in some ways. Daemons exist in Mythology and can be compared to Djinn for the most part. I'm only putting this here to avoid the confusion. But to be honest, Rasteva is used to is by now lol.))
