An... older character of mine has gotten its background changed in light of the revelations from Volume 3.


 * Name: Unknown. No name has officially ever been given to this entity.


 * Title(s): The Conflagrant, The Adamantine


 * Sex/Gender: N/A. While many texts may refer to it as 'male", chances of it actually possessing a gender are pretty low.


 * Appearance: The actual appearance of the beast is rather vague. The only thing that is known about it is that it is vaguely humanoid, and possesses leathery wings. It is also said to have blazing-red eyes, gleaming with an unnatural power. Clawed hands and talons for feet are also a common feature of it. A strange glow seemed to be coming from its "ribcage".


 * Appearance Variation(s): Some version have bearing the color-scheme of a Grimm, others portraying with skin of a warm color (such as brown, yellow, or orange). A number of them also claim that light bounced off of its skin.


 * Patronage: It doesn't protect anything. If anything, it takes and destroys. It's often viewed as a manifestation of evil, a dark omen of things to come.


 * Powers and Abilities: The legends say that it would leave a trail of fire whenever it flew, generating a sort of buzzing or whirring sound. They also claim that it could bend and manipulate fire and the other primary Elements of Remnant. Its hide is think, resistant to most kinds of weapons. And speaking of those, some records claim that it carried a sword with it, summoning it in combat. It was said to possess the strength of ten men, being able to throw boulders and carry even the heaviest of people. However, it is somewhat vulnerable to Dust attacks. Lightning in particular seem to be effective towards it.


 * Worship Status: It has always been feared and hated through history.


 * Worship Practices: Nobody worships it.


 * Origins: While the actual location of its origins is unknown, it has been widely known throughout the Kingdom of Mantle. Of course, there have also been isolated legends of it in other parts of Remnant as well.


 * Current Places of Worship: None. Nobody worships it.


 * Legend: { There've been all kinds of origins behind this monster. Some say it crawled its way out of a volcano, others from the depths of the ocean. Some say that it descended from the "blackness above", others it was summoned by an evil warlock. Whatever the case, it has somehow wormed its way into folklore across Remnant. The earliest records seem to indicate that it used to roam around Mantle, before turning its attention to other parts of Remnant. It is said that it sneaks into settlements during the night and abducts people. Human, Faunus; rich, poor, young, old... anyone was up for grabs. Nobody knows how it chooses its prey and why. All they knew is that once its claws are on you... game over. Its favorite targets seem to be young women and folk with strange conditions (especially of those regarding the eyes).


 * Impact on Remnant: In the past, people were afraid of looking at the sky. A few centuries before the Great War, however, they stopped believing in it and simply shrugged it off as some crafty Grimm. Recently, however, a number of researchers have starting retaking an interest in the legend, and for good reason: People are starting to disappear again. And what's even stranger is that a good chunk of those missing are either connected to the Schnee Dust Company or the White Fang. Has the demon returned, or is there something else at work. Whatever the case is... people are afraid again.


 * Notes: This character is an older OC that posted in these forms a long time ago. It's gotten some rewriting of its background done, and I do intend on having it appear in my works at some point. As to who or what the OC in turn is... well, some you may have already figured it out by now.
