Name: Lord Nagendra Kavi Mandeep
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 61
Description: Mandeep exemplifies good looks in every sense of the word. He stands at 6’ 2’’ and weighs a little over 180 pounds. His body is perfectly proportioned, broad in the shoulders, deep in the chest, and slim at the hips. He is dark haired with chocolate-colored eyes and a face that looks as though it were sculpted from white marble, and he is well-shaven and his teeth are clean. When he speaks, his voice resonates in a way that can send prickles up the spine. As a rule, Mandeep always dresses well,, even at home. He carries no weapons of any sort on his person.
Personality: On top of his perfect appearance, Mandeep has the most intricate code of etiquette imaginable by this writer, and is also rich, powerful and friendly. It would seem that there is no end to his good assets. Yet to the most perceptive eye (and only the most perceptive eye, mind) there is a subtle taint in the aura around him, like a slight distortion in the way light passes near him. Few have ever lived who commented on this.
Background: Many myths circulate regarding Mandeep’s origins, and the truth is now an inexplicable obscurity. It is known that he studied law in his youth, and eventually rose to be one of the most successful prosecutors in international court. He corresponded with rulers and high-profile persons from early in his career, and instead of accepting the position of judge he opted to become an advisor to thrones. Much of hhis life has been spent traveling from nation to nation, consulting top government officials on matters of grave public importance.
But among those who do know the truth, Mandeep is known as the Viper, for hidden within this prestigious life is a dark secret: he is the leader of the Oblivion’s Path assassins, a cult committed religiously to Mandeep himself, who brainwashes them into believing that he is the incarnation of death itself. These assassins all look like normal people, do not carry weapons except as part of their ‘mask’, hail from every conceivable level of society, and value neither the lives of others nor their own.
With this power at his back, Mandeep has written many nations’ darkest secret histories. It is as yet unknown what his ultimate goal might be…
SPECIAL SKILLS
Mandeep is an ether-mage. That is to say, he can manipulate the energies that flow through living beings. This ability has some prerequisites, depending on what he is trying to do. Usually eye contact is all that is needed, though some things require a touch of the fingertips. It will be noted that some individuals are more manipulatable than others.
Hypnosis is the main setup for ether-mage attacks. From the hypnotic trance, many things can be planted in the mind. Also, if an ether-mage brushes his fingers across the skin, he can induce drowsiness, paralysis, or other physical states. There is aalso the slow death attack, which causes one to go through several hours of terrible agony and can only be healed by a prayer spoken in love. Such things are the ether-mage’s primary difficulty.
