Not too long ago, there was a fire. It burned for many years, licking at the edges of Earth and Hell and destroying everything in its path. Humans tried to put the fire out, but nothing worked. Water had no effect on it, it grew with no fuel, it was a living, breathing thing.
The Humans eventually gave into the fire, and out of the flames emerged a man.
A Demon, with a temper. The few surviving Humans were weak, and the Demon only desired a simple thing in order to cease his wrath on the world.
One Human per year. He would devour their souls, drink their blood and take in their life and youth.
The Demon lived on Earth amongst the Humans, getting a Human once a year and living in a ravishing mansion, with anything anyone would ever want. He was a King among rats, and he still had the power to strike fear into a Humans heart with one sharp glance. When the Demon received his Human, he would drink their blood in small amounts, for weeks, perhaps months until he got bored of them. Then with one quick motion, he would eat their souls and absorb their youth, staying immortal forever.
The Humans would put all the names of their children into a draw, and once a year a Human was chosen.
This year, something changes. The Demon hasn’t just become bored with his ‘meals’, he has become bored with the Human Race. Perhaps it was about time for him to subside, and let the Human race flourish again. Perhaps it was time for another war of fire and death.
Except…this Human changes him.
The Demon:
He appears as a man, strikingly handsome with many superhuman qualities. Quicker than lightning, stronger than a hundred men. A master of manipulation, a cheater and a liar. He cares for nothing but himself, obsessed with his own power. He has never felt something for another being except anger, lust, destruction and violence.
His power is mysterious, the ability to absorb souls and take energy from blood. He can also control fire, is a master marksman/swordsman, and can slightly contort the willpower of Humans into doing as he asks (not quite as strong as his other abilities).
