I would like to distinguish my character from Brian Pullido's version of Lady Death.
Lady Death was originally published by Chaos! comics.
Brian Pullido Bought out the rights to this character when Chaos! Comics filed for bankrupsy.
He has completely changed her, down to her background, and history.
I am playing the Original Chaos! Version of this character, and completely disregarding Brian's remake and seriese completely.
First Name:Hope
Alias or Nick-name:Lady Death
Age:very old, dating back to medevil sweden.
Eyes:black (When alive as Hope, blue)
Hair:White (When alive as Hope, Blond)
Persuasion: Evil (When alive as Hope, Neutral)
Powers/Weapons: Lady Death Uses a sword named Darkness. Forged by Creamator, it is made specifically to channel her arcane eneries through in combat.
On ocasion, she gets her hands on the Scythe of Death. (This doesn't happen often, and the details on it's powers are always vague, As it is used for 'reaping souls' and highly unlikely to be functional as a conventional weapon, I wouldn't use it without a purpose in the RP)
Lady Death usually uses her 'Arcane' energies in fight. These are given to her when she became Death's avatar. She can use them to fly, and to add strength, and she can channel more of a blast with them, through the swords she wields.
She also has 'angelic' powers, from her mother. (which are the only powers she carries when she is alive as Hope.)
The Nameless Wolves will follow their mistress anywhere. Defending her when all else fails and completely at her command. They can be sent as messengers, fetchers, attackers and guards. Where they come from or reside when Death is elsewhere no one knows. They are totally loyal and only accept those who Death tells them to. (They do not accept or recognize her as Hope)
Lady Death turned Ernist Fairchild into Evil Ernie, in order to kill all life on Earth, and end the curse that Lucifer placed on her. If he is with her, he will do anything she tells him to.
She has a Hell-Stead named Vassago that flies and breaths fire.
When Lady Death, and in control of Hell, she commands Hell's army as well.
History:
Lady Death (or Hope, her original name) began 'life' in Europe during the medieval era. Her father, Matthias, was a sorcerer of great power as well as a feudalistic warlord. Matthias was also a 666th generation descendant of the fallen angels, a strong contrast to Hope's mother, Marion, who was of such purity that her bloodline reached all the way to heaven. Before her marriage to Matthias, Marion was married to the Viking Agnar, to whom she bore two daughters, Vulnavia and Vandala, previously unknown sisters of Hope. Marion's attempts to escape Matthias' brutality proved ineffectual and led to her murder at his hands. He, in turn, captured her soul for use in maintaining a gate to hell.
Matthias' aspirations for power included deals made with demonic overlords in Hell. In exchange for the souls of the newly dead, which were harvested through constant warfare, the overlords granted the sorcerer power.
Meanwhile, the townspeople found Matthias cavorting with demons and after a bloody struggle managed to kill the sorcerer. Unfortunately, it was their hatred he had sought all along, as it was the key to his ascension to power in hell.
When her father's true self was revealed, and he was thought slayne, the town turned on Hope, and declared her a witch and prepared to burn her at the stake.
Sentenced to an unjust death, Hope renounced her humanity, allowing demons to transport her to Hell. There she met Lucifer, who offered her power and the advice that in hell, desire equals power. Her response was to spit in his face. He cast her into a pit, where she fought to tame two demonic wolves, which would be her companions in times to come.
Meanwhile, Matthias had lead a great army against Lucifer and apparently vanquished the prince of lies. As the ruler of hell, his first action was to hunt down and kill his daughter. Hope had in the meantime decided to fight for herself and, renouncing her name, took on the name of Lady Death. With the help of the demonic blacksmith, Cremator, Lady Death fought and overcame hordes of demons only to face Matthias and learn that Lucifer was still alive. Lucifer had set out to create a creature of darkness from a pure soul such as Hope, and had engineered the entire war in hell to accomplish this task. Matthias' soul was locked away as Lucifer revealed the intricate plot he had weaved.
As he had revealed to Hope, in hell desire equals power, and Lady Death took this lesson to heart as she battled Lucifer. Angry at being used for mere 'amusement', Lady Death desired nothing so much as the death of Lucifer. After a fierce battle, she struck the mortal blow which apparently killed Lucifer. With his dying breath, he cursed Lady Death to never again walk the Earth until all life on that planet was extinguished.
Her solution was a pragmatic one. She would wipe out all life on Earth. Hell itself was transformed into a gigantic graveyard where Lady Death ruled supreme.
The Reaper (As with all true 'gods' of nature) was in need of a new avatar. (His last avatar gone rogue and turned against him)
And upon learning of Lady Death, he sought her out for the job.
Alligning herself with the Reaper gave her even more powers, and she fought his battles as well as used him for her own ends.
For four hundred years she attempted to wipe out humanity until at last she met Ernest Fairchild. He proved to be her most loyal and destructive servant ever, and at last her goal seemed to be approaching completion.
Hell was then turned upside down as the vampiric goddess, Purgatori, attempted to defeat Lady Death and take her god-like blood as a prize. It soon became apparent that Lucifer was still alive and well, having concocted an incredibly complex scheme to further evil through Lady Death. By aiding the destruction of life on Earth, Lady Death had performed splendidly for the Prince of Lies. Lady Death was completely overcome by Lucifer and her demonic side emerged, creating Lady Demon. This demonic incarnation cast Purgatori out to Earth and became Lucifer's consort.
This did not last however, as Marion's spirit contacted Lady Demon and Lady Death returned to her senses. Absorbing her mother's angelic powers, Lady Death returned to battle Lucifer. This time her defeat seemed certain, until she remembered a transdimensional portal known as Heaven's Gate was said to destroy creatures of pure darkness. With her last strength, Lady Death managed to kick the dark prince through the portal, effectively destroying him.
Weakened, Lady Death found ruling Hell far more difficult. Lucifer's defeat was said to foretell the Judgment Era of the Fallen Angels, but Lady Death merely wished to return home to Earth. Before she got to test the theory she was cast out of Hell through the vile cunning plans of Pagan, the court jester of Hell. She ended up floating in a void known as the Unknown, a place where all theologies coexist.
For a brief time she returned to Earth through the efforts of Evil Ernie. The curse proved yet effective, and she was forced to bid her emissary farewell. Returned to the void, she was unknowingly sent on a series of missions by Vandala to prove that she was the chosen one to save the Asgardian people from Genocide. Having completed the missions successfully and having destroyed a demon seeking vengeance for Lucifer's death, Lady Death went with Vandala to Asgard, where she began to learn the true nature of her existence, but was also forced to battle to save Asgard, and reality itself, from the forces of Genocide...
