Shani-Demon (villianous)

[melodysangel]

Basic Background (for MAs purposes when she does complete the prompts--this tidbit of info doesn't count): Pulled through a portal from her home in the 9 hells to cause mayhem for the city in ahket. Summoned by a head succ-you-dry--oh wait..succubus >> Everything was fun until the group got cornered and caught.

Shani was able to wiggle free of control (Succubus' control on her flattened when the lot of them were caught) but has lost her portal home. She has been watching and picking up new skills, to taunt the ones that have tried to catch her. Takes pleasure in taunting others and finds it her right to do so. Constantly plays 'cat and mouse' with the group that is trying to recatch her.

More to follow when prompts are filled. That should be enough to get me started.

Rank 1.1--Shani recalls her past and where her home use to be.

It was another scorcher down in her lair. The molten rocks from the edges of the enclosure seemed to harden into tiny pucks of crystalized lead before slowly re-melting into a liquid pile of fire to meet off with the rest of the molten mess. Hard steel orbs darted from side to side. It was small--but cozy. And the female found amusement in watching the transformation of solid rock becoming white hot magma deep inside the crevices. To her left a rough pile of stalactites and mites that seemed to form some kind of obscure cradle. The mass had been that way for many years now and the demon called it 'resting grounds'. A small pile of mismatched charred bones rested directly beside the 'cradle', as it were, followed by a few thick and rusted out chains. The bones themselves were not from the same creature--or even species, but the female smirked as she fondly remembered where they originated from..and what the last moments held for the piles of bone.

Her attention shifted from left to right, and alongside the river of melted fire was a small hole carved from rock that refused to melt. It was dark and glimmered slightly against the soft ember glow of the river--which was flowing out a smaller hole by the first. Through the larger of the two holes--which was easily big enough to fit the lithe demon--true chaos emerged. Fields of hot and cold collided and clashed, where temperatures rose and drop in 'zones', hovering many thousands of feet up and down. The magma in the river that originated in the females quarters flowed out and down into an endless magmafall--spitting as it started to harden, then heat up. Clouds of deep dust by the magma sparked a lightning not seen anywhere else--its red hot streak clashing within the dust fields itself.

But more importantly, it was just one small island of thousands. Her lair was a floating abyss among everything else surrounding it. There was no green space here, just swirling embers of hell and chaos and death. The 'sky' was not real, but a swirling mass of crimson, garnet and burnt amber. It never stops, and on rare occasions pieces of rock could be seen through it.

There were no clouds..or rain or birds or grass. Though 'clouds' created from the clashing elements of wondrous flame and freezing ice would clap and create a twisted burning fizz of rain that was anything but water. The smog that would sometimes come afterwards was as deadly as a cloudkill and even Shani knew to avoid it.

This was her home. And she loved every second of it.

One would wonder why Shani would not just return to her piece of paradise-hell. She had what she wanted. Nothing else mattered.

But her mind was still able to be controlled by forces stronger then herself. Sure she could easily feast on the moronic victims that dare try to 'adventure' out into her cozy abode. The offerings were at times sparse but still there--atleast, when she didn't have to fight other demons and imps to her pleasure. But she usually would win those matches anyway.

No. What was different that day was an immovable pounding in her head. That call for greater victims..and greater fun. The female soon found herself wondering into a portal that had appeared no too far from her home (to someone with wings, a few thousand feet is like a walk around the block). Shani could never prepare herself for what she next encountered, for she had never seen soo many ill witted beings surrounding her. Fighting was everywhere, anger surrounding many in the streets. Yes..yes this will do nicely! And then her newly appointed 'mistress' took over and everything faded to black.

Rank 1.2: How did Shani get out.



Shes flying and its not the bottom..there are other layers beneath that one. The portal was her way out.

Rank 1.3- The dancer pokes the demon for answers

Aluria had just come back with a few others from the mystic place of 'Stormreach', glad to be back to her familiar form. It was she who had caught the tail of Shani when the otherworldly entities were loose in her city and chaos ensued.

It was also close to midnight, which upset the dancer further. Shyness and lack of confidence temporarily left her frame as she spotted a red blur whizz past her. This was HER city, and these....these...things were destroying it! She acted quickly, and pounced into empty space where the whiz looked to be going next. She was slightly surprised when the whizz became solid and her paws made contact..but surprise turned to anger. She would not tolerate any more of this!


Her hiss was a low grumble, fur standing on the back of her neck. This demons 'mistress' had been taken down by Sahrat herself not 30 seconds before, and Alura was apparently lucky enough to be able to be at the right place at the right time.

Her long and sharp claws slowly dug into the earth surrounding her; the tail on the demon pressed tightly on the pads of her paws. This dancer was in no mood to play. After her little trip, she just wanted to relax and this was NOT helping.

The look on the face of the red beast was shock, and anger. It tried to pry itself free but could not budge the dancer on top of her. Magics..seemed to dissipate before reaching contact. The demon was trapped and Alurias patience was being tested.

'Answer me, foul beast. WHY are you here?' The pads pressed harder and Shani regrettably gave off a wince. Truthfully, she didn't remember doing anything other then hopping through the portal. Sure she THOUGHT of doing some 'fun' things, but she never got around doing it. Finally, her gaze turned on the watery blue dancer. Fangs showing through, she smirked--trying to hide the pain and humiliation the stupid moral was giving her.

'You're a brave one, aren't you rat? You want the truth? Fine, ill give it to you!' She paused to see the reaction on the lithe female that had managed to catch her. As expected, her response had caught her off guard--though disappointedly not enough for her to free herself--or fight back.

Keeping up her stone like expression, and looking those steel eyes onto the mortals orbs, she spent no time in waiting but was very interested in the responses and reflexes of the rat before her. Oh she would look perfect hanging on the wall of her lair! But no, time to rid that irritating grip.

Eyes unmoving, she spoke in a low tone. She was waiting..waiting for the perfect moment. 'Why WOULDNT I be here, mortal? You lot are some of the saddest creatures ive played my eyes on! So angry..so upset...so perfect!' Again, another flinch, but not enough of one to pry herself free. Would this rat ever give up?

It was about time she switched tactics.. perhaps the truth WOULD hurt and some embarrassment from the rat may be enough to free her. 'Not good enough for you, rat' She continued, with hard steel orbs unshifting. 'You know, you should be ashamed of yourself. I didn't 'do' anything. Im the one that's innocent!' Before Aluria could react Shani gave her a stare to put her in her place. '*I* found a portal inside my home and went through it. It placed me here. Before I could react something knocked me out cold. Was it you, rat?'

Shani grinned as she saw anger fume over the dancer, but something else caught the corner of her eye. A tiny whizzing silver thing was heading in their direction. It took the moral half of a second to see, but when she did her eyes widened and she had no choice other then to dodge out of the way. That silver object--a ninja star--landed 2 claws deep into a tree that was directly inline with Alurias forehead and was directly behind her.

Aluria looked back at the star in the tree, then back to where the devil was. Shani was smirking evilly and had already taken to the sky. Her cold orbs eyed the lithe dancer and she laughed. 'Pathetic rat! Cant even take something soo mundane as a beautiful destructive weapon!' She laughed again as Aluria tried to pounce upwards to re-catch her and her eyes met the embedded ninja star for a second, somewhat mesmerized before her eyes fell yet again on the struggling Aluria.

'It was not fun, rat, but do be a dear and shove off! Ta-ta!'

She laughed again as she took for the skies--this time unhindered, other then her throbbing tail and lack of a portal back home.

Shani noticed another ninja star laying on the ground and quickly grabbed it before trying to find a new 'lair'. This star thing had her interested. She could use it against these pesky morals indeed....

Rank 1.4 and Rank 1.5: method and purpose (what Shani can do)

((Ill have to rewrite this up in RP format tomarrow. Or perhaps I can word it like a biography and leave it as is? >>))

Shani is mainly focused towards being uncatchable, forming a mist like vapor around her when she chooses not to be seen. When she is seen, she tends to charm her way out--not through magic but by using those around her to her advantage. This could mean anything from twisting anything said to making friends or allies fight each other through word manipulation.

Shanis purpose is to revel in the chaos and madness that she creates, drinking everything in. When she is able to, her favourite thing is to bring prisoners back to her lair to starve and suffocate. Nothing is better then watching favourite victims slowly loose hope..and their blackened bones display well intertwined with the rigid rocks created by the flowing magma.

Shani answers to no one but herself--and will fight to keep it that way, though she will take any chance that comes her way to boss around anyone beneath her. The only time she becomes a puppet is if someone more powerful then her decides to drop a bomb inside her head without an invitation to do so. She is no stranger to bar brawls within the city inside the hells, and typically the other locals know better then to pick a fight.

The female is immune to fire and heat--she would have to be as a native to the fires in the 9 hells. Without magic to bring her back home, she is stuck improvising. But sometimes that is a good thing, especially when one needs a quick mind to twist things surrounding her. It has been about a year since that portal closed in on her, shutting her patch home--but during that time she has gained some new skills and tricks--mainly for her curiosity and enjoyment of baffling the dweebs that call this idiodic place home. The ninja star she took from the streets has never left her..and ironically enough, she has, in secret, learned the fighting style of the ones that use her little trinket.

To this day, the demon happily taunts anyone stupid enough to chase after her--through her manipulation skills--and ironic class she picked up. Shani finds pleasure in seeing mayhem but tiers and gets bored easily. She is, in secret, attempting to find a way to once again use magic to atleast open up an opportunity to open a portal to drag some of these rats back to her lair, even though she is a lesser form of a major entity and magic is harder for her to cast.
