Name: Seth Alabaster Buchanan
Age: 152 (appears to be early-mid twenties)
Birthday: March 2nd
Gender: Male
Species: Undead
Career: Associate of Carnegie Industries
Appearance Description: Seth stands at an incredibly imposing 7’3”, and he weighs 225 pounds. His hair is a stark blonde, which he often wears slicked back, reaching down to the middle of his neck. His eyes are a vivid red, and they give off an eerie glow nearly 24/7. His skin is pale and milky, his complexion fair. He tends to wear somewhat formal clothing unless they’re completely uncalled for. He wanders towards neutral colors and darker shades of red most of the time, and he’s almost never without a large overcoat or duster of some kind. He also has razor sharp fingernails and fang-like teeth, an aftereffect of being undead. He also has a very streamline facial construction, very sharp and narrow in look.
Personality Description: Seth is normally very quiet and reserved, very rarely speaking out of turn. When he speaks, he can be incredibly cryptic, while at the same time getting straight to the point. He fancies endeavors of the mind, finding physical labors tedious and boring. When cornered for a conversation, Seth can get surprisingly deep, something his incredible age has afforded him. He doesn’t take explicit pleasure in much, but he does find himself enjoying his existence when there’s something to be done.
When it comes to the job, he lives and breaths by a simple motto. Get it done by any means necessary. No matter the cost, the job gets done.
Powers:
~Mental Blockade~
Years of listening to Beth’s voice in his head has forced Seth to both train and inherently discover the ability to block out any mental abilities. These include mental based attacks, as well as mental control and telepathy. With enough force of will, Seth can explode this power outside of his own head, enforcing the same effect on everyone within 15 meters of him. This sudden rush of defense and mental power can be disorienting for those unacquainted with mental powers, however.
~Consume-mation~
Seth gains powers and abilities through feasting on bodies, living or dead. Through doing this, Seth unlocks an inherent ability (one of those possessed by the consumee) though in a weak form. However, the more people he consumes, the stronger his abilities get, both his natural and those gained through consumption. Consumed abilities do not stack, and Seth may retain one ability through this power that retains it's full strength. Consuming after this does not override the current power, and instead becomes a choice of which to keep and which to forget, much alike a Pokemon learning a new move. Consumption can be done one of two ways, either through drinking the blood from the body, or devouring the heart. Through doing this, he also gains the memories of those consumed.
Species Abilities:
Lich-Raised (Undead)
Being raised by the Lich Elizabeth Carnegie, Seth shares her Lich powers, as well as the weaknesses thereof, save the ability to resurrect corpses. As such, Seth is immortal. He also has incredible amounts of strength, enough to easily lift a blue whale, and can survive lethal injuries with ease, being able to regenerate a bullet wound and broken bones as if they never happened, as well as being able to reform and regenerate from complete obliteration, although this takes a small amount of time. He is also capable of incredible speed and reflexive abilities, being able to run ten times faster than the average human, and reacting twenty times faster than the average human. He can also, due to the strange re-written composition of his entire being, phase through walls. Nifty.
However, there are weaknesses. Undead magic is blocked in the presence of sunlight, holy artifacts and running water. In terms of the first, it must be direct sunlight, and in terms of the last it must be natural running water. Turning on a tap doesn’t do jack to stop this beast.
Biography: Born in the UK, Seth was originally a human. At a young age, he developed intense interest in the military, and began training with weaponry and battlefield tactics when he was just ten, joining the armed forces when he was fifteen. Through rigorous training, Seth flew through the ranks, quickly becoming one of the most well respected in his branch and throghout the entire UK armed forces. Revered as a killing machine and one of the best tacticians the UK armed forces had, Seth was incredibly content and figured he'd never leave. Until he was bought out of the army by an incredibly wealthy Scotsman who required the best soldier he could find. Seth was hired by Carnegie Industries to be a soldier and a bodyguard, due to his intensive military background. A PMC all on his own, Seth was a shoe in for the job. Getting to work right away, he set off to completely obliterate any who would harm Carnegie or the industry. Any who wished ill will on them. Hell, anyone who even looked at them funny was lucky to see the next day. Seth relished in being able to let loose, though he was very rarely allowed to truly do so, constantly being at Elizabeth Carnegie’s beck and call. Though he didn’t mind, he supposed. He helped her conduct business and she let him have his fun. An equal exchange every now and again. During his time with Carnegie, Seth developed a friendly relationship with a man named Justus, who had coincidentally served in the same battles and wars as Seth, albeit in a different battalion. They grew incredibly close through exchanging stories and relishing in the bloodshed of the good ‘ol days. Eventually, they came to an agreement that Justus needed to see battle again. As such, they struck a deal. Justus would bring Seth chamomile tea before bed every night, and Seth would sneak Justus out to ‘help’ him whenever blood was bound to be spilled. An equal exchange every now and again.
Seth’s undoing came one night when he had been sent out on guard duty of the manor. He’s still not entirely sure what hit him, but it hit him hard. And then it stabbed him through the chest. About thirty times. With his heart eviscerated and his blood pooling on the ground beneath him, he swore before death that he wouldn’t rest until he saw whoever did this to him share the same fate at his hands. Unfortunately he bled out a few seconds after that. Poor soul.
Seth came to in the same pool of blood he had died in, though it was now dry and caked his cloak. He sure as hell wasn’t paying for that dry cleaning bill. As he sat up, Seth noticed Elizabeth just a small ways away from him. After some short discussion, it became apparent that Beth had been hiding something from everyone. She had dabbled in black magic and strayed too far it seemed, becoming a Lich, a creature of undeath who curse corpses with the same. Seth felt incredibly indebted to Beth, and when it was propositioned that Beth leave, Seth was the second one to raise his hand to come along. The first, of course, being Justus.
Seth has lived since that time with Beth and Justus in Carnegie Manor on Manta Carlos islands, still serving as a bodyguard to Elizabeth and a PMC to the Industries as a whole.
