Venom

Syphon is the Nightmare of Pride, but is more well known as The Devourer of Nightmares.
== Physical Description ==
Syphon appears to be an male human in their early to mid twenties of above average height and a slightly muscular build. He wears black running sneakers with red accents, black pants, a hoodie that is mostly black with some red in a couple areas (such as the arms and torso, with a red logo on the back), his hands are exposed, showing standard human pigmentation. He wears a mask (sometimes) that covers his mouth and nose, while leaving his eyes exposed, which are a deep crimson. He always has the hood on, although some of his hair can be seen, which was originally black with red tips, though his hair appears entirely black now. He bears a notable resemblance to Alex Kura.
While it is mostly hidden, he also has a devil-like tail.
== Personality ==
His personality is mostly unknown, but will be updated as more information is revealed.
== Kait's notes ==
Ah, Syphon. Never really liked this guy.
Anyway, this is the guy who dragged my brother through all this crap.
No idea why he did it in the first place, if he had some sort of complicated plan, or was just bored and wanted to be a jerk.
Really makes no difference to me. Next time I see him, I'm going to break something of his. Probably his face.
Anyway, I'm getting sidetracked. Venom is a Nightmare, like me and my brother.
Meaning it's going to take a lot of effort to bring him down. And by a lot of effort, I mean solar system leveling stuff.
Hey, no one said this would be easy.
== Abilities/Powers ==
Nightmare Physiology: Being a Nightmare, this means he has inhuman levels of strength, durability, speed, and stamina. Enough to shatter buildings with his bare hands, and survive planet-leveling attacks. He can also regenerate parts of his body if he is injured, shapeshift his limbs into weapons and other objects, and transform into other people (only after he has consumed a person though).
High Intellect: To be added.
High Pain Tolerance: Complementing his durability, Venom has high pain tolerance, not reacting to being shot or stabbed, and expressing only minor discomfort at getting his limbs ripped off or being split in half.
Levitation: Syphon can make objects and life forms float in the air, he mostly uses this ability on himself, allowing him to easily access hard to reach places. In combat, he uses this ability to throw objects at his opponents or to lift them up before slamming them into the ground, buildings, or even just throwing them in the air.
Teleportation: Syphon is capable of teleporting anywhere on a planet or even teleporting to other planets. This ability either appears as a cloud of red mist, or just him comically disappearing with a POOF sound effect. He can also teleport people and objects.
Energy Manipulation: Syphon can change matter and energy into a number of things, whether it's used to create objects or fire blasts that range from small explosions comparable to that of grenades or beams and blasts that can completely destroy planets with a single blow. Venom mostly manipulates this energy with his hands, with a few exceptions:
* Dark Matter Blast/Beam: These take the form of red projectiles or concentrated beams that can vary in power and size, though most forms tend to vaporize, or burn/cut through their target.
* Energy Blade: He can focus this energy into a blade that covers his hand and lower arm, this is capable of slicing through most opponents.
* Devil's Breath: A favorite move of his, this attack allows him to fire beams of energy from his mouth, it is powerful enough to shatter buildings and vaporize entire groups of people.
Gravity Manipulation: Syphon seems to be capable of either increasing or decreasing the level of gravity in a certain radius, which he seems to exclusively use for combat in order to surprise his opponents.
Final Judgment: W.I.P
Dimensional Travel: While Syphon has shown that he can teleport effortlessly between locations and planets, he seems to also be able to teleport to other dimensions and universes, including (what is to be believed) his home dimension. He even creates portals so that he can reach into a pocket dimension which he uses to store weapons.
Shadow Merging/Manipulation: Syphon appears to be able to manipulate the presence of Shadows, he can seemly make a Shadow merge with their human counterpart in an instance, turning the human into an Afflicted. He has also used this ability to resurrect certain individuals.
Doppelganger: He can create Shadow clones of himself that mimic his appearance and mannerisms, and some of his powers (but not all of them, or any very powerful ones). They are extremely weak compared to the real Syphon, but are hard to identify. They disintegrate when destroyed.
Sin Clairvoyance: To be added
Eavesdropping (name will change later): Syphon is somehow able to listen in on a conversation from far away.
Immortality: To be added
Longevity: To be added
Consumption: Like all other Nightmares, Syphon can literally consume his opponents to increase his strength. This allows him to inherit certain abilities or powers from the victim, as well as their memory, knowledge, and appearance that he can shapeshift into at will.
Necromancy: Coming soon
Consumed Nightmare Powers:
War: W.I.P
Greed: W.I.P
Deception:
Memory Transfer/Wiping: Syphon is capable of manipulating a person's memories, either showing them his own, or erasing/altering them. He does this by placing his index and middle fingers on his target's forehead.
Alternate Forms: He has multiple alternate forms that increase his power, they seem to vary greatly from form to form. Although the only one that has been shown yet is his armored form:
* Armored Form: Greatly increases his defense and power at the cost of agility and speed. It is virtually indestructible to most forms of damage, however, other powerful beings, such as other Nightmares, are able to break it.
* True Form (Destroyer of Reality): To be added
== Arsenal (list will update) ==
While he doesn't use these quite as often as his powers, he does have certain weapons available to him, which he pulls out of portals in a near instant. These portals vary in size depending on the weapon, and they are all connected to a pocket dimension which Syphon uses as storage:
Malleable Shadow: Syphon can use a specific form of a shadow to create weapons on the fly, these are considerably less powerful than his physical weapons, but they can still bring down most opponents. He can shape them into daggers, swords, axes, scythes, throwing knives, spears, and spikes that he can hurtle at a target. He can even extend this to cover an area with the shadow, blinding his opponents. He can even make it invade the bodies of his opponents and make them explode. On rare occasions, he can make the Shadow take on a semi-humanoid form adorned with claws.

== Trivia ==
* It's unclear as to how or why his eyes turn different colors.
* It's unknown why he wears a mask to cover his mouth and nose.
* His real name, Syphon (suggested and info provided by Flamiez), comes from the name "Saiph", used to describe a star in Orion's constellation with an extremely high temperature. The word Saiph is an Arabic word meaning "The Sword of the Giant."
* He secretly has a devil-like tail he keeps hidden for numerous reasons.
