Name: Nikolai Dashkov
Age: 39
Gender: Male
Race: Human of somesort
Affinity: Space and Time
Birthplace: Unknown, though he has his theories.
Weapon: A combat knife made of a foreign polymer; it’s neither metal, bone, nor any other known material. It’s extremely sharp and impossible to dull. One could use it to cut a rock in two and neither dull nor break the blade.
Appearance: He stands at 5’10” at around 190lbs, with average body build. His blood type is O. His skin is unusually gray and pasty as if he had been lacking the vital nutrients of sunlight for almost an entire lifetime. Physically he is healthy, just his skin lacks any and all luster or tone. His eyes as well seem to be suffering from the same problem; they are a dull white-brown, very pale and seem to be sensitive to light.
When he first appeared, as it would seem, out of the ocean, he was dressed in a tattered and burnt uniform of some unknown and distant military or organization. Any indications of origin were lost during whatever happened out at sea.
Biography: He first found himself on the shore near Wutai, his body beaten, burned, and sore. His memory was fragmented from the trauma he endured out at sea, leaving him with only a very basic knowledge of whom he is or where he came from. From what he could gather, from the personal effects still on him, that he must be part of an organization or perhaps military. He has no knowledge of what happened out at sea nor his past, least he can’t make heads or tails of it enough to formulated an accurate picture. He does believe he may have a family, somewhere. His mental state might best be described as retrograde amnesia mixed with too much exposure to the sun from being adrift at sea. This however has left him with an unusual understanding of Spacetime and the magic that accompanies it.
Its been several years now, wandering the worlds trying to find out who he is and where he came from. He has found some answers, but nothing for certain and they all sounded so preposterous to easily believe yet make too much sense to dismiss. Now, having been contacted by an old traveling partner when he first 'awoke' in this world, he's about to get a crash course in his true identity.
Special Abilities:
-A Rift in Time: Using Time magic, Nikolai can bend and shape spacetime to send someone into a temporary rift in time. They are trapped in this rift for an unknown amount of time as perceived to them, it could be anywhere from a few seconds to lifetimes; however they normally reappear back in their original time within a calculable minutes with no signs of age. This leaves the victim with Confuse and Slow, as they slowly cache back up with the current time.
-Lost in Space: Using Space based magic, Nikolai projects a target into the vacuum of space, making them suffer the effects of moisture in the body converting to vapor, formation of nitrogen bubbles in their body, brain asphyxiation, and direct exposure to ultraviolet radiation which leaves the victim in a terrible state of injury. They are brought out of the spell at this point (before death), suffering from Darkness, Silence, Slow, Heat, and Confuse as well as suffering large amounts of magic and physical damage caused from this powerful Demi based attack.
-We Are All Made Out of Stars: Using Space based magic again, Nikolai surrounds the party with the entirety of the cosmos, as if they existed outside the normal boundaries of the human experience. When the effect ends, the party is left with the effects: Regen, Haste, Float, Shell, Protect, and Reflect.
-Vectorial Distance: Nikolai folds the reality of spacetime over itself, thus allowing him to travel from one part of the world to the next instantly, as well as from realm to realm.
