Pozharny

Pozharny is a retake of the original Mario.EXE by Coolrash, made by FuriousAntz. He is a seemingly scrapped character from a lost remake of Super Mario Bros. from 2003, called Super Mario PC. He is an evolved Fireflower used in a failed ritual, who has now taken on a form akin to Mario, serving as the vessel for a bastardized spirit of a Deity.
== Biography ==
Pozharny was born through a ritual performed by a group of cultists. They wanted to bring their "King" to the mortal realm, and to do such had to bring three components together to form a Trinity. They needed a Soul, a Vessel and a source of Strength. The Soul was their god, Svarozhich, and the Strength would be a Fireflower they had collected. Lastly, they needed a Vessel, and they chose Mario. With him being the Mushroom Kingdoms beloved savior, they figured he would make a Great vessel for their King. Abducted Mario in the middle of the night, and took him to their Cathedral.
However, something went terribly wrong during the Ritual, causing the Fireflower to get possessed by the Deity. They Deity would end up getting corrupted in the process, becoming a bastardized version of itself. The Fireflower evolved rapidly, as it started to form a humanoid body made out of vines intertwining with eachother. With Mario being the first person it saw, it based its new from off him, making him look like an imperfect clone of the red Plumber. Once his body had fully formed, he took no time to immediately attack the Cathedral, burning it to the ground. He let Mario go, as he burnt everyone and everything he found, wiping out the cult in the process. 
After all was said and done, Pozharny took a moment to take everything in. The thrill was envigorating, and he felt a rush of energy all through his body. He had a burning desire to cause more havoc, to create more chaos, to burn every last thing in the kingdom down. Now, he lays dormant in the Cathedral, vigorously waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
==Appearance==
Pozharny looks very similar to Mario, with a few differences. He is much larger than Mario, being both taller and broader, and has a lot of Burn marks across his body. He has black, messy hair and sharp teeth. He wears white overalls with buckles rather than buttons, and a white cap with a black brim and golden buttons on each side. He wears a black belt with a golden buckle around his wait, along with black shoes and a red sweater, with white gloves to top it all off. He has yellow skin, and his eyes are usually pure black, however on occasion his iris changes color to a bright, firey yellow.
== Abilities/Weaknesses ==
=== Abilities ===
* Pyrokinesis - Pozharny is able to bend fire at will, being able to create it out of thin air.
* Levitation - Pozharny is able to levitate several feet over ground, although he prefers to stick to the ground.
* Flora control - He is able to control flowers, mainly using them to root themselves inside people to turn them into Flower Zombie servants.
* Flower Zombies - As mentioned earlier, Pozharny can turn people into zombie-like slaves for himself via rooting flowers inside them and taking control of their bodies through them.
=== Weaknesses ===
* Hydrophobia - Pozharny is absolutely disgusted by water, and will typically avoid it at any cost. To be safe from Pozharny, it is advised to hide in damp, wet areas.
* Hesitant - Pozharny refuses to attack flowers, as he still feels a strong connection to them.
== Trivia ==
* Pozharny's name is a latinized version of "пожарный"(minus the last й), which is Russian for "Firefighter." (as ironic as that is)
* Even though Pozharny possesses a soul akin to the one of the Deity he was supposed to be, he has very little in common with said Deity. In fact, he actually thinks of the Deity as pathetic, boring and all around a pushover.
** Said Deity shares a name with a Slavic god of Fire, Svarozhich.
*** The Svarozhich in Pozharny's story is NOT the same as the one from Slavic theology, and their only similarity is by name.
* Pozharny has no interest in ruling the mushroom kingdom or controlling it in any way, he'd rather just treat it as his own personal playground where he can do whatever the hell he wants and fuck around with it.
** In fact, Pozharny hates royalty, because in his eyes their main focus is always order and stability, which is the exact opposite of what he wants, Chaos and Anarchy. He thinksthat they're missing out on the fun, and sees them as incredibly boring.
* Pozharny doesn't have any personal vendetta against any of the residents of themushroom kingdom, he just sees them as easy prey.
* Pozharny has a soft spot for flora, and will typically try to avoid burning any flower patches down.
** Additionally, Pozharny genuinely likes his Flower zombies, and views them as family.
* Pozharny wouldn't have much of an interest in Romance, as he'd view it as a waste of time. 
** You could therefore technically count him as Aromantic.
