Full Name: Korthag Baalshazzar
Odain Alias: Baal
Played By: Shelby Scott [darkheart2k@yahoo.com]
Homeworld: Notusia

Physical Desciption:

Baal is a truly massive beast known as a Behemoth in Notusia: a heavily-muscled,
red-skinned monstrosity with a pair of curling black horns jutting from his
skull, four-fingered hands and feet bearing hoof-like black nails, a mouth full
of wicked-looking yellowed teeth (usually hidden by Baal's pompous smirk) and a
long, well-muscled tail. One of his eyes, the right one, has been obviously torn
out, leaving behind a hollow black pit that contrasts against his other eye, a
green reptillian affair. He stands close to six feet tall and weighs nearly 300
pounds.

His attire, oddly enough, is a well-tailored black dress vest and slacks
(with a button-up slit in the back for his tail), a red dress shirt and a
matching red tie, held in place with a skull-shaped tie pin.

Powers:

Behemoths are, by default, somewhat more physically advanced that the average
human, and has a very tough hide that's somewhat resistant to most forms of
injury. While this is where such preternatural powers end for most Behemoths,
Baal has taken time to expand his talents.

Balefire: Baal can exhale a 10-foot-long searing gout of flames from his mouth
roughly once every 6 days. These flames are far more potent than the natural
kind, and can cause even normally flame-resistant materials to ignite. Baal has
to exhale the balefire blindly, for it (like most direct sources of light) can
easily blind him if he gets a good look at it.

Darkvision: Baal's vision is attuned to seeing in near-dark or totally dark
areas, as Notusia normally is. In a decently-lighted area, his vision would
lessen in clarity. Should he look directly into a light, he'll experience a form
of flashburn, and lose all vision for a few minutes.

Fear: Baal can, at will and once every 6 days, unleash a arcane spell of sorts
that causes intense, inescapable terror towards him in anyone whose resolve
falters when he looks into their eyes, terror that becomes mild paranoia when he
is not present. The effect is actively usable for six minutes, and any after-
effects caused by the spell wear off after a day or so.

Weaknesses:

Being the Spawn of Notus, and of a far closer generation that he'll readily
admit, Baal has a number of weaknesses.

-Harsh light, salt and pure water causes Baal considerable pain and some
internal injury if the exposure is prolonged for more than a few minutes. A
weapon utilizing water (like a high-pressure cannon), salt (rock salt jammed
into a shotgun shell) or light (a laser or similar device) would be supremely
effective against Baal.

-The presence of a truly 'faithful' religious individual, or just one who holds
to a belief with considerable faith and purpose, makes Baal quite uncomfortable.
Any sort of faith-invested item that the person may have readily visible causes
Baal extreme discomfort, and enrages him somewhat. 'Holy' (or even unholy)
weapons and supernatural effects wound him with relative ease.

-The sight and smell of others' blood excites him in untold ways, and tears away
at his normally controlled demeanor, leaving him a ravenous beast. Once affected
as such, it takes every bit of resolve he has to not attack whomever is doing
the bleeding. This, naturally, does not always work.

-Having only one eye, he has a huge blind spot on the right side of him, as well
as incomplete depth perception.

Skills:

Baal is surprisingly smart for a Behemoth, and was, upon arriving at Odain,
maintaining the day-to-day operations of a business trafficking in the importing
of humans from 'Dayside' ('normal' modern-day Earth) for comsumption purposes,
since human flesh is a sort of delicacy among Notusian high society and is hard
to obtain. (He oftimes takes samples pre-slaughter; there is a reason his
workshirt and tie are blood red in color) He is quite good at accounting and
business management, and is a quick study when a business deal requires it.

Aside from this, Baal possesses the intelligence of a 5th-year college student.

Equipment:

Aside from his clothes, Baal carries a relatively useless cell phone, a state-
of-the-art PDA, a wallet with ID cards and such and a large travelpack with the
bare essentials, along with enough food to last him for a short while and a
container of jerked meat made from... his favorite delicacy.

Personality:

Baal is, when focused, a shrewd businessman with considerable cunning, a gift
for gab and gutso to spare. He is notably very disrespectful to human beings,
seeing them as nothing more than a source of meat and slave labor. Otherworldly
beings may earn some degree of respect from him, but Baal sees precious few as
an equal to him. He makes no attempt to hide this.

When angered or enraged, he becomes a literal demon, either intent on silencing
whatever it is that's angering him with threats, then force if it is needed. He
is not above making examples to get his point across.

Connections:

He has a number of connections in Notusia, including the Debaucher who brought
him to Odain in the first place. These connections are effectively useless in
Odain, however.
