Name: Rainier Devereux
Alias: Rain
Sex: Male
Sexuality:
Pansexual, when he has a choice.
- Pansexuality, or omnisexuality is a sexual orientation characterized by the potential for aesthetic attraction, romantic love, or sexual desire for people, regardless of their gender identity or biological sex. Some pansexuals suggest that they are gender-blind; that gender and sex are insignificant or irrelevant in determining whether they will be sexually attracted to others
Race: Ice Demon
Powers/Abilities:
- Accelerated healing-As a slave, it allows his body to take more of his master's abuse. Depending on the gravity of the wound, after a time his body naturally heals it.
- Superhuman speed
- Martial arts that require speed rather than strength
- Atmospheric chill-an ability, rather than a power simply because its linked to his mood. If angry, the air around him takes on a natural chill.
- Healing touch: As a demon, he has an accelerated ability to heal. Rain however, can at will share that ability through touch for a brief time. However, that has limits. While he can naturally heal any wound, he cannot cure illness in the target. And the greater the wound, the greater strain it takes on him physically.
- Ice Shield: The power to create a shield of ice around his person, either in the form of armor or a barrier to prevent attacks. It takes a bit to prepare an ice shield, and during that time he is vulnerable to attack.
- Ice Manipulation: The power speaks for itself. It is the skill to manipulate ice in any shape, way, or form.
- Winter's Grasp: A binding and defensive technique that allows him to command ice vapor to swirl rapidly around an opponent's area that solidifies it to lock a target into a large prism of Ice.
- Frozen Tundra: The power to freeze an area under an opponent to cause them to loose footing.
- Blizzard: An area affect rush of cold elements from the sky within visible range. It takes a great amount of energy to use and as such, often, afterward he passes out from exhaustion.
- Ice Needles: The power to project several small and sharp ice shards from his palm.
- Winter's Dream: The power to weave minor illusions.
- Hiberba Affectus Instruo (Winter's emotion construct): The power to inspire and contrive emotion, through the creation of music...of any kind, whether sung or played on some instrument.
Age: Unknown, though he appears perhaps around twenty or so
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 180 Ibs
Occupation: Slave
Weapon(s): He is a slave...and thus given nothing that may harm his masters, and the slavers. However, he does have his powers. When he's able to use them. And that isn't often.
Accessories: A heavy, black leather collar
Appearance:
As far as men go, Rainier is oddly beautiful. While tall, he isn’t overly so, and his body is lithe and fit, almost feline in musculature. His demon blood preventing him from becoming diminished, even under the rigors of slave life. His skin is as pale as a perfect fall of new winter snow. Unmarred even by scars, thanks to his ability to heal at an accelerated rate. It has proven in the past, to be the frustration of his masters who desire a punishment to linger upon his flesh. And has often been the fuel for an even harsher punishment. With rounded shoulders, and a narrow waist, his build might be slim but it is no less desirable. Rather than strength, he is formed for speed and utilizing it to its greatest amount. His limbs are long, and both his hands and fingers are artist’s hands: Slender, agile, quick.
His facial features are inhumanly perfect and refined, with a sharp regal bone structure and a slim, symmetrical nose. There are two especially notable characteristics about his face. One is the intricate odd markings that descend from his hairline and down over his left cheek. At fist glance it appears like a tattoo, but truthfully it is a marking he had been born with. The other most notable characteristic about his face is his eyes. Slanted and exotic, framed in a thick heavy fall of lash, the vivid blue orbs shine a shade that is unmistakably inhuman. With flecks of silver glittering amid the sapphire depths, not unlike snow fall on a clear winter day. Rain’s hair is all winter tones; pale in the manner of moonlight woven into threads and given birth to hair…save for the darker bit of grey at the front.
He’s fond of a variety of things when it comes to wardrobe. Comfort, especially is a rather sizable must. But what he wears truly depends on what his master allows and what he’s given. Unfortunately he doesn’t always have much choice. However, no matter the case, he always has a blasted collar around his neck. One day he made the mistake of trying to get rid of it, and ended up beaten for his trouble. So he simply leaves it as is.
Personality:
- Complexity: A complex being of varying natures, no one person would ever possibly be able to pin them all down by even a few mere descriptive words.
- Intelligent: His mind can be as keen and sharp as any blade. He fully believes that knowledge is a strength and that only fools are weak in that area. Many tend to greatly underestimate something so seemingly common, but truth be known if used properly it can be a force to be reckoned with. He has no problems using his intelligence to his greatest advantage, and will forever be plotting about how to get himself free from the pits of slavery he’s gotten stuck in.
- Passionate: A side few people truly get to see, his passion simmers just beneath his cool exterior. Despite being an ice demon, he is a naturally sensual being and would strive to do anything to please his lover. It makes for some heated moments, and he is more than willing to try things others might not desire to. Unfortunately, he keeps this part of him hidden. Unwilling to trust others to see within his secret heart of hearts.
- Artistic: A lover of music, his artistic side surfaces often. He finds beauty and peace in the lilting notes, the varying crescendo and decrescendo, the melodies and harmony. Rain might often be found humming some innocuous rhythm or strumming his fingers to a silent beat. In spare time, when he’s allowed a moment of peace, he enjoys both song and a musical instrument…if he can get his hands on one.
- Jaded: The obvious result of being thrust into slavery, he is incredibly bitter toward the world. Jaded to the point of hatred, it makes it quite difficult for others to get near him emotionally. It also forces him to see everyone and everything in an untrustworthy light, naturally viewing others as automatic enemies. Especially those few that have become his master. But then most in the slave business care little about whether or not he as happy. As long as he carries out his purpose. Yet another factor in why he is jaded, he despises being nothing more than someone else’s property. However, he is unable to help enjoying being dominated, at least to an extent. But it isn’t something he’d ever admit to.
- Distant: Emotionally distant, often times he comes off as quite cold and intolerable of others. Rather than outright exploding, despite his temper, he often greets adversity with a cold sneer. It seems a much better method than allowing others to see that he has quite a few emotions. Being distant is a natural defense mechanism to further protect himself.
- Secretive: By nature, he's a secretive creature. His thoughts and feelings are his own, and he likes it that way. He's prone to plotting and dreaming and planning within the depths of his mind where no one else can hear. Rain has countless secrets, secrets he won't ever let anyone unlock. After all...everyone likes a bit of mystery. And if not, he doesn't much care.
- Perverse: Helpless to the things that stir him, he has a rather perverse streak to his personality. His libido is fond of various fetishes, right down to masochism and sadism. A part of him even enjoys some of what he faces under the hand of his masters and mistresses. Despite his need for freedom. However, it is yet another secret part of him that he refuses to share. At least intentionally.

History:
The date of Rainier’s birth is yet unknown, but it is assumed he hails from the far North where the Winter’s are unending. The names of his parent’s have long since disappeared in from memory and he doesn’t care if anyone knows of them, as they abandoned him when he was quite young. Born with an odd marking upon his cheek, even unique among demon kind, he was thought to be cursed by the Gods. As a result, his village left him to the wilderness, when he could scarcely walk. Rain was found by an exiled hermit and raised high upon the mountain tops. Away from fools and the like. It was a rigorous life, but he was free from the cruelty of civilization for the first decade of life. Until hunters, summoned by the villagers, found them. The hermit was killed by one a lycanthrope, and Rain was sent fleeing for life and freedom.
Years went by, and he learned how to defend himself. Not only was it necessary to survive, but he had a driving hunger for knowledge that couldn’t be satisfied. Insatiable, curious, eager to learn. And just as eager for companionship, he let nothing get in the way of his goals. But that curiosity was to be his greatest downfall. He was seduced by a vampire; caught up in a cold immortal beauty of the like he’d never seen before. And as an ice demon, that coldness was appealing. Young of mind, and yet vulnerable, he let himself be taken away from the safe views of the public eyes and into the darkness. Rain didn’t realize that the creature desired a blood slave, rather than one night lover until it was to late. And he found his mind under assault. Though he tried to defend himself, the vampire bore ruthlessly into his head and locked his powers up so thoroughly he couldn’t use them unless commanded to do so. The next decades were spent beneath the thumb of his tormentor, tortured…twisted…used.
He grew bitter and cold. Jaded against the world with every passing year. Rain was sold from master to master, as if he were no better than cattle. His powers locked down, until commanded by the one who owned him at the time. But the indomitable spirit of winter has yet to be worn away entirely. He withheld a secret determination to unlock his power. Come what may. Freedom would be his one day.
