( Tim Shinonome Ryoga Joker Xellos Link )
I probably need a longer write up on how Mazoku work someday but for the purposes of this poll, which I should have done when I got in, all you need to know is that Xellos literally feeds on other people's misery. This means that WHOEVER YOU ARE, even when he's being nice to you or you're maybe kindred spirits, he's still looking for something that will make you unhappy/uncomfortable/annoyed/cry/angry/freak out/etc. And when he finds it, he will poke it.
It is very highly likely that Xellos will harass or bother you in some way in the course of any thread you have with him. Ever. However, I am taking it as a given that people still want to thread with him because I mean... ...that's what he's here for!
BUT, what I want people to do is to comment here if you are not okay with threading with a guy who's probably out to get your charas. Like if this will not be fun for you, please let me know so I can avoid tagging those charas with Xellos.
If you're okay with mild harassment but want to inform me preemptively of any big things I should avoid, you can comment here too o/. I will usually check if I notice he's about to step into the territory of getting too personal with the misery-making but I may not always notice.
REMEMBER, don't let me make you miserable, let Xellos make your charas miserable.
( So while on hiatus, instead of playing to procrastinate I... )
WHEN I REPLY I will also ask you a question in turn!
In this way we talk at each other, which is fun.
Xellos, Joker, Ryoga, Shinonome, Tim

( Crapton of disorganized stuff )
Age: Looks around 20, is actually... uh, at least over 1000...
Hair: Purple! Silky! Black in the novels.
Eyes: also some purple shade. Slitted and inhuman looking close up.
Height: Completely average. (Though visually he's between Zel and Gourry's heights and they're 5'10" and 6'0" respectively.)
Weight: Neither thin nor fat.
Accessories: Utterly generic sorcerer's staff.
Physical Traits: He is completely average and unsuspicious in every way! Except for how he's always smiling. And his genericness makes him stand out. I guess if it ever comes up he has no scars whatsoever. Very nice complexion! Because it's fake.
Medical info: It's a.. mystery! Has no actual physical body to get sick with.
What's Okay to Mention: As a player I'm fine with pretty much anything! Xellos will get touchy if the Lord of Nightmares is mentioned flippantly.
Notes For the Psychics: He's making no real effort to hide his true nature because where he's from humans can't sense it. And being confident of what he is is tied into his existence. Non-humans with spiritual sensitivity will be able to tell that he's not human. Human's with spiritual sensitivity, it's up to you if you want to notice or not.
Abilities: Lots! I'll go into detail some other time. For now the most important ones are that he's hard to hit and he can phase in and out of reality. His clothes and his staff are part of his body so they also obey his will.
Shapeshift/bodyswap/etc.: May have to work out some issues before hand. Feel free to ask any time though!
Hugging/Kissing/Nicknaming: My, how forward!
Fighting: His likeliest action is to evade and laugh. But he's not really known to have mercy once he's actually participating in a fight. Give me a ping first so we can make sure it'll go the way it should o/. I'm definitely not adverse to fighting though!
Maiming/Killing/Death: Not an easy thing to do! All attempts are welcome as long as we're talking about it at the same time! He can regenerate from pretty much anything and attacking his physical body doesn't actually hurt him, so it'd take some doing. If you're a godmode that can affect him I may want some kind of intervention because he's too egotistical to save.
Cooking: He pretty much makes Tuesday soup. Who knows if he actually can cook and was just messing around or if he's actually that bad.
* me joins #nofishmen
Me: I'm just here cause I'm planning to watch revolution.

Two Days Before Apps
* me finishes days early... Decides the best way to whittle away the time is to color doujinshi and make porny icons of Xellos that I'll never use. "Iyaaaa Valgaav-san~ how bold!"
Series: Slayers
Age: "He looked around twenty years old..." --Slayers Novels, Vol. 5: The Silver Beast, page 65.
Canon: Slayers is a swords 'n sorcery, dungeons 'n dragons, crack 'n catastrophe type of canon. And that's all you need to know about that. Now onto the important thing: introducing Xellos, the Mysterious Priest! Every time he shows up mischief and mayhem are sure to follow. He comes off as kind of a fruitcake, with his carefree disposition, overall flirty attitude, and his utter cheerfulness in the face of crossdressing that one time... No matter how polite or unassuming he acts he's not without a healthy sense of irony and sarcasm. It's really all for the sake of annoying and pestering the protagonists of Slayers, Lina Inverse and her motley band. Well, technically he's out to annoy everyone.
The fact is, Xellos is quite evil in many ways. Not only does he do a lot of small things to be irritating --like smiling constantly or only ordering water at a cafe-- he is also a Mazoku, a dark astral being that feeds on the negative emotions of all living things. Not only that, in the Mazoku hierarchy he is one of the highest ranking under the top tier, answering only to his master. The fact that he is freaking powerful makes it even more infuriating to Lina and co. when he unabashedly abandons them whenever trouble approaches--even if he was the one who gave them the clue that lead them there in the first place--generally only returning to provide blithe commentary. He has no compunctions about misleading, double-crossing, and backstabbing anyone so long as it suits his and his master's purposes. But all appearances, nature, and behavior to the contrary, he would never outright lie... You just have to be as careful of the words he doesn't use as you should be of the words he does. What a badass, right? But I'm sure some of you are wondering, "A guy this powerful and this manipulative and shameless... does he have ANY weaknesses?" He sure does! For one, he tends to have allergic reactions to large amounts of life-affirming love and happiness... But who wouldn't?
Sample:
My my. With autumn practically upon us, who would expect to still see a summer camp so well populated? And what unique service the campers here receive! Timely wake up calls, poison-immunity training on Tuesdays, around every corner a new bonding activity for them to get into... Oh? How curious! Even with so many exotic things here to occupy their time, they still make room for something as ordinary as singing campfire songs. Let's see, it sounds like the words are, "someone's crying Lord Kumbaya." Hmm, crying was it? That seems promising! Perhaps I'll take a look.
So, this is the source of the singing! Hello, everyone~! I couldn't help hearing the music so I came to listen in. But I must say, the last verse about someone merely sleeping is almost disappointing somehow, after the previous ones were about crying and praying... Aah, "Kumbaya" is a song about togetherness; you'd never be able to tell by the lyrics. Oh, you needn't feel you have to invite me to sing along, I can sense the togetherness quite well from over here already. And I wouldn't sing this song well. Really! ....The next song is "I Love the Whole World"? ...My, the strength of all your positive feelings is... er... truly staggering. In fact, I'm feeling a little faint. Oh, no no, there's no reason to worry! But perhaps I might make a suggestion?
Instead of singing, why don't we tell scary stories, hm? After all, no one has to know any lyrics or be able to sing to listen to a story. Well then, shall I begin? I know just the tale that all of you will be able to relate to! Listen closely now. There was once a stoic, business-minded woman who, because of her family, could not bring herself to care about anything outside of what she created by her own hands. However, she had a dear childhood friend who was much the opposite from her, and despite her cold attitude towards him, he was the one person for whom she would sacrifice anything. But we're not here for a love story, now are we? No, the story truly begins when tragically, after they are promised to wed, this woman learns that her fiance had been brutally murdered in a swamp and she--
...Oh? You've heard this story before? Why yes, it is said that this woman created a place between realms to which those who are suspected of having a hand in her fiance's death are brought and tormented and experimented on etcetera for as long as they remain trapped. That's exactly the story I was telling; what an accurate deduction! Aah, but have you guessed this next tidbit? The between-realm from the story... which the woman built with vengeance in her heart... is exactly... where we are right now~! Isn't that a surprise!
Oh my, you already knew? I've certainly wasted your time then, haven't I. My apologies ♥. Would anyone like to hear another?
