Followers of the Void

The Followers of the Void is an organization of powerful villains created by E-113:Xi. They serve Onix, the mighty Void itself, who wishes to feed upon the life force of Mobius and all its inhabitants. The Followers carry out its every desire (whether or not this is of their own will is unknown), and use its borrowed power to fight at maximum strength. The organization consists of twelve main members, eight of which represent the Later Heaven of Ba gua, whereas the other four serve as elites and represent ascended elements. Together they perform swift, organized strikes, and grow closer to their goal with each passing day.
==Known Followers==
===Lower Eight===
====Ceres the Cerberus====
: For more information, see here.
Ceres is a Mobian pitbull and Fire Being. He hails from Mulciber , an alternate dimension parallel to Mobius. In his early days he seemed in perpetual trouble, as he was a convict and anarchist. His childhood of poverty spawned his hatred of Mulciber's royal family, which led to his villainous ways. Eventually he was exiled from the realm and forced to find a new home on Mobius, which is when he encountered the Followers. His direct connection to the element of Fire made him a desirable canditate to represent it amongst their organization, and the Void was more than willing to take him in.
As a Fire Being, Ceres has immense reign over the element of Fire. With the help of the Void, he can achieve Fire techniques that many thought to be impossible, as well as powerful alterations of more basic techniques. He also has access to his Cerberus form, a variation of Mulciber's Secret Technique "Phoenix Drill" created by combining it with the Void's power. In this form Ceres' power increases drastically, but he loses all self control. However, the lack of self control isn't much of a change, since Ceres battles rather recklessly anyways. Overall he is a very agressive fighter, and certainly a force to be reckoned with.
====Gunther the Gargoyle====
: For more information, see here.
Gunther is a Mobian gargoyle, one of few remaining on the planet. As nocturnal creatures living in the Kingdom of Mercia, Gunther and his brethren were disliked by many, but also heavily feared. Many attempts were made to drive them from the kingdom, but all to no avail. Eventually, differing opinions drove Gunther and his kin apart, and Gunther left of his own accord. Travelling east, Gunther made his new home in the Dragon Kingdom, where he soon discovered the Void. Seeing much potential in the unique powers that gargoyles possessed, the Void took in Gunther and made him one of its closest Followers.
Gunther's attitude towards those around him is very cold and uncaring. He sympathizes with no one, and refrains from letting strong emotions show through his rough exterior. Gunther's powers mirror this. He can use many powerful stone abilities, and channel dark energy through his body to manipulate others, and even turn them to stone as well. Along with immense physical strength, Gunther easily strikes fear into all who oppose him.
====Micah the Manticore====
: For more information, see here.
Micah is an interesting creature in that none of the other Followers, nor anyone who has survived an encounter with him, can say for sure what he is or where he came from. He was one of the first Followers, having been recruited by Rajasi as the second of the Lower Eight. Despite numerous questions from the others, Rajasi and the Void both insisted that his origins remain hidden. After seeing him in action, they soon learned to stop asking. Micah is arguably the closest to the Void of the Lower Eight, and spends most of his time at the shrine, rather than going out on missions.
Rightfully so, Micah is easily the most intimidating of the Lower Eight, though he may not seem it at first. Shrouded in mystery, and not one for words, no one truly knows what goes on inside his head. The one thing that everyone knows for certain is that when Micah gets mad, he gets very mad. Micah shows absolutely no mercy in battle, and will deal with his opponents in a quick, violent rage. Few see a day following their bouts with him, and those who do often wish they hadn't.
====Natasha the Sphinx====
: For more information, see here.
Natasha is by far the oldest of the Followers, though it doesn't really show, and no one knows exactly how old she is. Many believe her to be a reincarnation of an ancient beast from the old world, while some think she herself came straight from the old world. One way or the other, there are few to no beings on Mobius quite like her. For this reason the Void found great interest in her, and chose to recruit her into its ranks.
On the field, Natasha often works alongside Percival the Pegasus as his partner. The two work together better than any other team of Followers, and can easily overpower their opponents with swift and calculative attacks. Natasha has at her disposal powerful psychic and Light abilities, which she can combine to form devastating energy attacks. She also wields a spear which is bound to the spirit Sirin, granting her Flight and basic Wind powers, which she uses to effectively keep up with Percival.
====Alder the Krakken====
: For more information, see here.
Alder is one of the newest additions to the Followers. He was once a fierce pirate, scouring the Mobian Sea for treasures to pillage and unsuspecting ships to terrorize. An unfortunate run in with a mysterious sea creature, which Alder claims to be a legendary Bunyip, left him mortally wounded. None of his crew were present at the time of the attack, so the story's legitimacy is debatable. In order to keep himself alive, Alder was forced to equip himself with cybernetics, making him an even more powerful and intimidating pirate than before. Minister admired his gall, and convinced the Void to recruit him into its ranks.
As expected from his roots, Alder likes to fight dirty. He exploits his foes and employs trickery in combat. Alder is also a skilled swordsman, calling himself "the swiftest swashbuckler of the sea". Though, as a Follower he doesn't fight with his sword very often. Instead he relies on his electrical powers, which are amplified significantly by his cybernetics. All in all, Alder is very aggressive, conniving, and not somebody you'd want to meet in a dark alley. 
====Fury Leviathan====
: For more information, see here.
Fury comes from an ancient tribe of undersea Mobians. They lived in the dark abyss of the Great Sea for generations undisturbed, until Minister and Horus came to their city searching for something which, to this day, is currently unknown and yet to be found. The city guards fought and fell quickly, leaving only Fury, the city's fiercest warrior, to stand against them. She too lost, and offered her strengths to the Void in exchange for her people's safety, as well as a way for her to become even stronger.
Fury takes great pride in her immense strength, along with her incredible Water powers. She has nearly mastered the element on its own, and has expanded her skill into the advanced element Storm. Her weapon of choice is a massive trident, with which she commands the power of the sea. In battle Fury prefers to command rather than to fight on the front lines, a trait which she developed from constantly having to look out for her comrads.
====Percival the Pegasus====
: For more information, see here.
Percival is easily one of the most cunning of the Followers, and often boasts his skill and finesse. As a rare halfbreed, Percival was an outcast early in his life. He took up fencing as an outlet for his anger, and quickly grew very skilled. For years he honed his fighting capabilities until no one could best him at the art of swordplay. Percival's confidence knew no bounds, and reached even further heights when he discovered the Nephilim Rapier, an ancient weapon gifted with the power to control time itself. Such a find was immediately recognized by the Followers, and Percival was recruited with promise of grand superiority.
Being part horse and part bird, Percival is both strong and agile. He has at his disposal power of Wind, and Time Manipulation from his rapier, as mentioned. Percival is a cunning tactician and masterful swordsman, able to defeat virtually any opponent in a fair duel. Though, massive overconfidence and an ego bordering on narcicism have been observed to bring about his downfall. For this reason Percival is often paired with Natasha to keep him in check, and the two have formed a deadly team.
====Ichijo the Kimera====
: For more information, see here.
Ichijo is a very strange creature. He is the only of the Followers not to be recruited by one of the Four Elites, but rather by the Void itself. For this reason the other Followers know very little about him. Always draped in a black cloak and hood, nobody knows what Ichijo actually looks like, or if he even has a true form at all. He's significantly more sinister than most of his comrads, always working to ensure his foes truly feel their defeat. Oddly, the Void only sends him on missions as per his request, earning him a rather poor reputation.
By technicality, Ichijo doesn't have powers of his own. Instead, he mimmicks the powers of his foes and shapes himself into a creature that represents the powers he took. Such forms generally tend to be horrific amalgamations of undiscernable species. While transformed, Ichijo becomes violent and animalistic, emphasizing the subtle malicious undertones of his regular self. Rarely does he fail to strike fear into his enemies, one way or another.
===The Elites===
====Minister====
====Horus====
====Maga====
====Rajasi====
==The Void==
The Void is an extradimensional being of unknown origin. It has no true physical form, and resides within a gemstone known as the Amethyst of Might, which has existed on Mobius for longer than anyone can account for. The Void's power is seemingly limitless, and it feeds on the Life Force of other beings to grow stronger. Currently it exists in a very weakened state, and lends its power to the Followers so that they can gather Life Force for it to feed upon.
Being formless, the Void cannont communicate through normal means. Instead, it creates a mental and spiritual link with its Followers. This link allows it to project its thoughts into their minds, and also control them should they get out of hand. In exchange for their services and gradual payments of their own Life Force, the Void grants its power to each of its Followers through what is called Vortex Magic. This power stengthens their physical, mental, and supernatural abilities to unimaginable heights, though it rarely reaches that point due to the Void's conservative nature, and is also what allows them to drain Life Force.
The Void's motives are currently unknown, but what's clear is that it plans on eventually draining the Life Force of the entire planet. It makes no alliances, other than those with its trusted Followers, so everyone and everything is fair game. Though the Followers are loyal, the Void considers them ultimately expendable, so it takes no displeasure in punishing them thoroughly for their misdeeds.
==Base of Operations==
The Followers operate out of the Dragon Kingdom, but do not have an actual base. Instead, the organize in a secret location within the northern deserts of the Dragon Kingdom. Hidden within said location is the Shrine of the Void. From this shrine the Void can project itself into the real world. This is also how Mobius' life force is transfered to and from the Void. The area around the shrine is completely barren for a radius of approximately two kilometers, as all the life has been drained by the shrine's presence. This area gradually exapands with each passing moment, but the change is virtually unnoticeable.
==Uniform==
The Followers do not have a uniform, per se, but their individual outfits do carry similar traits. Each of the eight lower Followers wear mostly black, while the elite Followers wear patterns of black and another colour. Otherwise, each of the Followers' outfits are unique to themselves.
