Taskneat

Taskneat is an important character from the Record of Tavern verse. He was an experiment of Myiagros that was declared a failure and abandoned, and became a serial killer and urban legend in Heaven. He is known as The Soulless Bioweapon.
He takes part in the tournament between Aegis and Pagun, as a fighter for Pagun. He fights against Kingburg during the .
==Appearance==
In his base form, Taskneat looks like a preteen, perhaps around twelve or thirteen years of age. He wears a black hoodie and a white collar shirt which lays untucked over his gray jeans and black sneakers. He also has straight black hair and red eyes. His facial features are somewhat hard to distinguish, and give off a sort of uncanny valley effect. Taskneat can shapeshift his body near-freely, with his body transforming into a black substance whenever he changes form. 
== Personality==
Taskneat is first and foremost an insane sadist and a psychopath. He relishes the pain of others, and his main goal is to inflict as much suffering as possible. He enjoys mocking his opponents, but he is generally humorless and cold. He tends to get frustrated easily and has a strong temper, and is very, very quick to resort to violence as a solution to his problems. Taskneat's mind is somewhat fractured. Due to his programming, he is often forced to be hyperaware of "orders" and gets urges to complete "optimal" actions, which clashes with his desire to inflict pain upon others. However, this programming also grants him a degree of machine-like intelligence, which results in him being more intelligent and a better tactician than many would initially assume based on his child-like demeanor and appearance.
==Background==
The child that would become known as Taskneat was abandoned shortly after his birth and left to die in a gutter. However, he was found by a mysterious scientist god, who saw potential and him and brought him to a laboratory to be experimented on. The god and his assistant discovered that he had unique genes passed down from humans who could shapeshift in the distant past. They experimented on him heavily, transforming his body into a black substance that could shapeshift. They also installed a sort of artificial intelligence into his mind to make him the perfect servant and killer. However, Myiagros eventually decided that the experiment was a failure, and abandoned him. 
The experiment was given to the gods to use as a plaything and given the name "Taskneat" based on a program that was used during the experimentation. The gods used Taskneat for killing for a while, but eventually grew bored and somewhat frightened by him. He was eventually abandoned in a vault. However, many, many years later, the vault would be opened by some thieves. When he was set free, Taskneat gained sentience, as well as his psychopathic sadist personality. He became an urban legend in Heaven, known for hunting, torturing, and killing anyone he came across.
==Powers and abilities==
*Monstrous Physiology: Taskneat's body is made of an unknown black substance. He does not need to breathe, eat, drink, etc, and is immune to sickness and cannot age.
*Shapeshifting: Taskneat can shapeshift his body almost freely. He can create new limbs, spikes, change his size, and much, much more. His shapeshifting is his main ability in combat and gives him the physical abilities to fight against nearly anyone.
*Regeneration: Due to his unnatural body, Taskneat is extremely durable, and can regenerate nearly any damage done to his body. He is less efficient at regenerating when the damage is non-physical, and his regeneration can eventually be worn out if he takes enough damage.
==Relationships==
*Myiagros: The scientist who experimented on Taskneat, leading to him developing his shapeshifting abilities. Taskneat was never able to properly interact with him, as the scientist abandonded him before Taskneat properly developed sentience.
*Kingburg: Taskneat's opponent in round 3.
==Trivia==
*Taskneat was on the original rot roster and appeared in the first version of round 3. However, he was largely disliked and considered a badly written character. His author later left the project, so the character was adopted by journal_13, who changed much of the character when round 3 was rewritten.
*Taskneat is the second character to have changed his epithet after the beginning of the project, being initially called "That Thing" before becoming "The Soulless Bioweapon."
