Name:ǂ: Alexei Nikolaevich Romanov

Nicknames:ǂ: “Alexai Romanov”, Alyosha, “Roman (Roma) Antonovich Tsvetkov”

Age Turned:ǂ: Twenty-seven

Age Now:ǂ: 112

Physical Age:ǂ: Twenty-seven

Gender:ǂ: Male

Species:ǂ: Russian Vreix’yhr

Sire:ǂ: Konstantin (Kostya) Victorovich Kasyanov and Diana Vasilievna Sychkina [they are mates]

Nest:ǂ: Godlings (First Nest was Silvered Nobles; Second Nest was Nomadic Wolves)

Rank:ǂ: Member

Appearance:ǂ: Alexai has soft grey eyes with patterns of stark, sky blue around his slightly oval-ish pupil. He has a long, finely chiseled face with delicate features. The rest of his body is made out of muscles, as if carved from marble, and is covered with soft tan skin. He stands at six foot one. On Alexai’s upper back is a tattoo of the Lesser Coat of Arms of the Russian Empire. He acquired it when he was still human despite his hemophilia B (his Makers had fed him their blood throughout the process of receiving the tattoo so he did not die of blood loss before they could Turn him). On the inside of both his wrists are faint fang marks from his Makers from when he was turned. While his Makers had the standard set of fangs (upper canines only), his were unique. His are the upper lateral incisors and canines with the canines being three-and-a-half inches and the incisors being a good inch shorter, and his lower canines are also three-and-a-half inches. Alexai likes to wear black or camouflage cargo shorts or pants. He also likes to wear black, red, or white t-shirts or long-sleeved-shirts with a black leather jacket over top. Alexai is also partial to combat boots, sneakers, and converse.

Personality:ǂ: Alexai is a very affectionate individual despite being a little shy off the bat. However, once somebody can break through that initial shyness, they can find that affectionate nature as well as a very loyal soul. He can also be chastising and stern when he needs to be. While that is all mild, he can also be akin to a raging storm, cruel and unforgiving. Alexai is also extremely intelligent, having been a Lance Corporal as a human, and can come up with battle strategies on the fly.

Species Abilities:ǂ: Because of the placement and length of their fangs, Vreix’yhri can unhinge their jaws like a snake so their mouths can a human neck. Attached to these fangs are glands of endorphins that can cause their prey either euphoria or pain. Their eyes glow brightly whenever they feel extreme emotions, or if their thirsty. From each of their fingers and thumbs sprout six-inch claws. Each claw is pure black, and have a slight curve like a talon. Each Vreix’yhr has superhuman strength, speed, and senses (sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing) that gradually increases as they age. While not an ability, per say, their ears slowly get pointed as they age.

Extraordinary Abilities:ǂ: Despite being the reincarnated soul of Dažbog, the Slavic solar deity, he has shown no abilities of that particular divine. The Leader of the Godlings invited him to their nest so they could keep an eye on him just in case his abilities unlocked somehow.

Mate:ǂ: N/A

Kin:ǂ: Isedon Miashimi (adopted daughter), all the members of the House of Holstein-Gottorp-Romanov (most are dead, like his immediate family; others have been exiled from Russia).

History:ǂ: Alexai’s human past can be found through any search engine or history book. However, before the Bolshevik could kill him, two Vreix’yhri were attracted to the Ipatiev House via the scent of blood. They managed to kill the Bolshevik firing squad, but Yakov Yurovsky managed to escape. When the two discovered that Alexai was still alive, they fed him enough blood for him to survive before all three left. The two Vreix’yhri returned and removed the corpses of the Bolshevik, and put a secondary body in place for Alexai. The secondary body was an unknown orphan boy with no living family who had his DNA altered by the last surviving Flibhae who did it using very powerful magic. When that was done, the two Vreix’yhri raised Alexai as their son, since he was too young to be turned, and gave him regular doses of their blood so his illness did not hinder his life. When he was old enough, he joined the Russian military under a false name – Roman (Roma) Antonovich Tsvetkov – and climbed through the ranks quickly before joining the Spetsnaz. During this time, he had slept with a female named Mavra Valerikova Dyakonova and got her pregnant. However, they never saw each other again and Alexai does not know if that line survived. A few months after he turned twenty-seven and was medically discharged from service, he asked the two Vreix’yhri to Turn him. They did, and when twenty-four hours was up, he was a newborn Vreix’yhr.

The first Nest he and his Makers joined was the Silvered Nobles. However, that only lasted until the top three realized just who he was and exiled him – as well as his Makers – from the nest. The little group traveled around Russia until they found the Nomadic Wolves nest in the eastern part of the country. They joined and they stayed with the roaming Nest for half a century. However all three were exiled from that Nest as well because the top three figured out his true identity too.

It took the three about a year to move to the United States and settle in Boston. With the help of the local nest, the three soon became citizens and Alexai moved to Salem and started the Auphesix with collection of other nomadic Vreix’yhri, nomadic and loner Wrev’aska, and a couple humans who knew the existence of the children of the First. Four years later, he met a scared young girl named Isedon. He did everything in his power to help the abused girl (offering a place to escape to, help with schoolwork, food, comfort, etc.) before adopting her three years after meeting her.

During the next twelve years, he raised her like his daughter, teaching her things she never would’ve learned with her drug addict and abusive biological parents. Also during that time, the Auphesix grew into a large organization that it prompted a name change to The Legion of Monsters and a change of location; the Auckland Islands near New Zealand. After buying the small cluster of islands from the country, they kept the settlement that was already there uninhabited as a cultural settlement and built their buildings the furthest away they could get without disturbing what was already there.

Now The Legion of Monsters acts as a mercenary band/army for the First and acquires its weapons from Isedon’s company in Japan. Alexai runs the organization as their Commander while being the youngest Vreix’yhr to ever do so.

Other:ǂ: Alexai can speak all the Slavic languages and their dialects, both Queens and American English, all of the Germanic languages and their dialects, Japanese (because of his daughter), and the Language of the First, both the Vreix’yhri and Kuosohx dialects.

Appearance þ Isedon has long, russet hair with black stripes that serves as accents as her hair is roughly spiked, even without styling gel. Her hair has a coarse “top coat” with a softer, smoother “under coat”. She often pulls it up into a high tail so it can mimic a fox’s tail. Her eyes have dark russet irises with a circle of deep crimson around narrow, slitted pupils. The crimson is actually part of the implants her parents did and it glows in a “boot-up” fashion when activated. And her eyes always seemed to be narrowed from the things she’s experienced and witnessed. Wrapped around her bust are white bandages that show off the scars on her stomach and back when her torso is uncovered. On her back is her Kuosohx mark, which is the Japanese character for death – 死 – surrounded by nine black katana. Isedon can make the mark appear and disappear at will. When it shows, the mark covers the scars on her back. When she decides to wear something over her torso, she usually goes with a fitted black leather jacket. Lightly hugging her waist are fitted cargo pants – usually black, red, and all kinds of camouflage – that go down her slender, yet toned legs and end three inches from her ankles. On her feet are black, knee-high boots that have her pants tucked into them. When she’s not wearing the boots, she wears either black or red high-top converse. On both hands are black fingerless gloves that go up and end right below her elbow. The “gloves” are just bandages wrapped around her hand, the bottoms of her fingers, and her lower arms. Isedon’s right ear is pierced with a Bangel Tiger’s fang that had been transformed into a USB drive that holds all the information from the experiments from both Yasuo and her. The tip of the fang rests on her shoulder and it is stained white. She stands at five foot seven without shoes on and she has a dark olive skin complexion. However, marring her skin are a multitude of white scars. Defensive scars line up on her lower arms. Whip lacerations mark up her back. Stab wounds litter her chest, stomach, and right leg. The worst of the scarring she has is a continuous burn mark from the top of a red-hot fire poker. It starts on her left food, circling around the knuckles of her toes before wrapping around her foot, up her leg until it reaches her hip before curling around her stomach twice. After that, it goes straight up before curving over her left shoulder blade and wrapping around her upper arm, ending at her elbow in the same way it starts on her foot.

Personality þ Isedon can come across as distant and cold to people she first meets as she decides whether or not they are a threat to her in any way possible. If one is an immediate threat, she will attack first; damning the consequences. If one is a possible threat, she will be weary until the person is proven friendly, then which she will warm up to the person. Or until the person is a threat, then she will attack. Her friends, few at that, are something that she cherishes and something that she will always protect. Regardless of where a person stands with Isedon, she will always protect her material objects, given her past. She will always act with a caustic and crude attitude. Isedon might’ve been an innocent girl, but she became too jaded to gain that kind of innocence back. She knows that world is an unfair place with easy-to-bribe people and that is one of the reasons she has trust issues. Isedon also likes speaking in tongues, such as switching between English, Japanese, and Russian in the same sentence. She also speaks Pievarin, both Kuosohx and Vreix’yhr dialects. 

Species Abilities þ Isedon can summon nine (or multiples of nine) of each and every weapon ever made and will be made. She also gains instant master of the weapon if she has never learned how to use it before. The weapons she has are kept in a “bolt-hole” of sorts which she calls her Armoury. The only weapon that does not have nine is a scythe made out of a fox skeleton that has nine tails. The blade of the scythe comes out of the fox’s open bone-maw. Isedon can use magic. However, the magic specific to her species is very mischievous in nature. With little rhymes and clever phrases, it can be playful. But, it can also be extremely dangerous when spoken with battle-chants. An example of both would be the use of her Kuo-fyr (fox-fire). On one hand it can be playful like will-o-the-wisps and on the other, it can be a burning inferno ready to kill anything. Isedon can shapechange into two different forms. One form is in the form of a fox about the size of a Maned Fox with nine tails. In this form, she has a mangy, skin-and-bones appearance with white bones popping up through skin, an ear missing, and patches of skin missing, showing ligaments and atrophied muscles. The other form is a seven-foot Toh’epe with features of a fox with nine tails. This form also has its form altered to look like a risen corpse.

Other Abilities þ Isedon has literal control over death. She can see auras of all living things, in so, she can see when they will die. However, for when seeing when things will die, she doesn’t automatically see a countdown to when they will kick the bucket, it’s more of a feeling. She can also sense death, feel it around her and give a rough estimate on how long a thing (person or otherwise) has been dead. Isedon also sees links that tie auras together, such as bonds. For her, each bond is a different coloured thread and she can track these threads from person to person like a giant web. To do so, she enters a realm called “The Thread World”. If she wants other people to see what she sees all she needs to do is touch their skin and snap her fingers. Along with her death elemental abilities, she can also smell like a decaying corpse when she wants to. Despite smelling like death warmed over, she has this innate ability to get close to animals without them fleeing and because of this ability, she has three animals that follow her.

History þ The Miashimi name goes back to the early days of the samurai in Japan, where they were one of the best families. Now a days, they are the leading makers and sellers for high-tech weapons; Miashimi Weapons Corporation. Isedon was “born” to the eldest son of the current owners of the business; her grandparents. However, “born” is too simple a term. She wasn’t born; she was made in a petri dish with her fraternal twin brother. When they grew into that age that they were “born”, Isedon was cryogenically frozen whilst her brother was experimented on and later killed at the age of five. Then she was brought of being a popsicle, and experimented on just like her twin. Meaning, her parents implanted numerous devices throughout her body after she showed an innate aptitude for fighting. They were buried in her bones and connected to her nervous system, to a device implanted in her brain that helped her control them all. It was also believed that her parents genetically enhanced both her physical attributes (strength, stamina, senses, agility) and her mental capacity. Though, Isedon does not remember any of this since they hid in the memories of the experience deep within her subconscious and her parents used plastic surgery to remove any scarring they have caused. Around her fifth birthday, everything started to change. Her little family suddenly moved from Kyoto, Japan to Salem, Massachusetts. Upon arriving, Isedon started suffering from verbal and mental abuse as her parents slowly became jobless and substance addicts.

During her elementary years, she gained defensive scars on her lower arms and legs. They cause was the chief’s knife in her drunken father’s hands. While she was in middle school, her mother stabbed her in the thigh, nicking the femoral artery. While she was in high school, she was whipped to an inch of her life and shortly after that, she gained the winding bun that covers her entire left side. Though, the kicker is that her father stabbed her in the heart a few days before she graduated. It should’ve killed her…but it didn’t.

While she was getting her first scars, Isedon ran away from home. That’s when she met Alexai Romanov for the first time. He had seen her cut and bleeding, managing to gain her fragile trust before taking her back to his gang headquarters since he was the leader of the Auphesix. He dressed her wounds and fed her. Over time, after several more attacks on Isedon, Alexai asked her who was doing this and she responded that is was her parents. Furious, he went to the police to report child abuse, endangerment, and neglect. They didn’t do a thing. So Alexai continued to gain proof of this and took her and the evidence to the next county over. There, he appealed to the judge and to gain guardianship of the girl, which he did get.

As her legal guardian, Alexai taught Isedon to fight after seeing an instinctual reaction to a couple schoolyard bullies. Once he was confidante in her abilities, he took her to the street fights. She started these in the middle of middle school. But, during one of these fights, the devices her parents placed inside of her activated after so many years. The result had been horrendous. Several people lay dead by her hand and the gangs soon feared her, and the Auphesix that raised her. After that fight, she gained they name Black Fox because of the foxlike tails emerging from her tailbone.

When she “died”, Alexai was close to going after her parents by himself. But several minutes afterwards, she came back to life and changed. Her entire body transformed into that of an emaciated fox, mange-ridden and missing part of an ear and upper lip above the canines, as well as sporting nine long tails. She had changed back soon afterwards, facing a shocked Alexai and with questions about her heritage.

After she graduated, her parents found her one night. They were surprisingly sober, but that didn’t stop Isedon from snapping. She questioned them about her heritage and when they didn’t respond, she shifted into a large, lycanthropic fox and killed them. It was merciless, but messy. To say she regretted doing it would be the wrong thing. A few days afterwards, she traveled to Japan with Alexai to take back her birthright.

After she claimed her birthright, she came back to Massachusetts, this time living in Boston while her adoptive father changed the name of his gang from the Auphesix to the Legion of Monsters and moved their headquarters to the Auckland Islands in New Zealand.

Other þ As stated in an aforementioned ability, she has three animals that follow her around. One is red fox male named Xerxes which she raised from kit-hood. The second and third are a pair of mated wolves called Yin and Yang, whom she saved from hunters. Yin is a female black wolf with a white nose stripe and Yang is a male white wolf with a black nose stripe.
