Bune

*Looking for a different demon? See Category:Demons*

**Bune** is a cursed dragon/hydra demon and a duke in the Ars Goetia.

## Appearance

Bune appears as a tall demon with fair skin. He has long black hair and green eyes with black sclera. He has white horns. Coming out of his back is two dragon heads with green scales, one behind each shoulder. He also has green dragon wings coming out of his back and a green dragon tail that is as long as Bune is tall. His hands and feet are replaced with green dragon claws with black nails. He wears a dark grey shirt with an upright, frilled collar, as well as black dress pants, but no shoes since none fit his claws.

## Personality

Bune can come across as emotionally distant, but he is fairly friendly despite that and his intimidating appearance. He is very logical and matter-of-fact, but he can be quite emotional under the right circumstances. This is very rare, however, and he is usually very composed. He loves the two heads he shares a body with, often petting them and giving them affection.

## History

Bune was born as Bunerius, the crown prince in an old kingdom. Often preferring to keep to himself, Bunerius would spend most of his time in his room, which was his comfort space. He would pass the time by either reading or making caricatures of dragons, who he was fascinated with. When he was out and about, however, he spent much of that time with his friends Amdusias, Forneus, and Flauros. Each of the four friends had a "firefly" in a jar that they would release once they came of age. Since Bunerius was the oldest, he was the one who released his "firefly" first. However upon releasing it in his room in one of the castle's towers, it was revealed to him that the creature he'd been keeping in that jar had been not a firefly, but a fae. The fae flew out his bedroom window, and cursed him. Bunerius was confused, since he didn't feel any different after having supposedly been cursed, and he just assumed it was a fae trick. He went to bed as normal that night, but when he awoke, he felt slightly heavier. He got up to discover that he was taller and stronger. Happy to have been seemingly blessed rather than cursed, Bunerius spent the rest of the day like normal, and went to bed once nightfall came. When he awoke the next morning, yet again he felt taller and stronger, but today he had a slight headache, and his back hurt slightly. Blaming the back pain on a bad sleeping position and the headache on lack of hydration, Bunerius went on about his day. Days passed, and his headache and back pain got worse. And he was still growing, having grown a full foot taller over the course of one week. It was here where he discovered the source of his back pain and headache- he had small white horns coming out of his head and the beginnings of a long dragon tail. His muscles where also starting to become very sore, making it harder for him to move. His condition would only worsen over the course of a month from there- his hands and feet became dragonic claws, he grew wings, his horns and tail got bigger, and he kept growing. He would hit 7'6" after one month, and he could touch the ceiling of his bedroom. At this point, Bunerius was forbidden to leave his room, and no one was aloud to enter it, making Bunerius incredibly lonely. A few days after this, his two dragon heads grew in, and while they were some sort of company, he was terrified of them, and the fact that they were attached to his body. And he kept growing, reaching his current height at the end of his second month. As his height and muscle mass increased, so did his weight, coming to the point where he would break his own bed several times due to his body weight. His appetite became ravenous as his body needed more and more to keep up with it's constant growth. His teeth grew sharp, and his diet became more and more carnivorous. One day, due to the constant stress he was under as well as his body no longer able to keep up with all the changes, Bunerius awoke one night with severe pain in his chest, struggling to breathe. He would die, and his body wouldn't be found until the next morning. Bunerius would reawaken in the Underworld as the demon Bune. Accepting his death after the initial shock had faded, he found that he could properly communicate with his dragon heads, and the three of them together worked to make their afterlife together tolerable at the very least. After a few years of living together, Bune would eventually be scouted for the Ars Goetia, and he was deemed powerful enough to be a duke. He would eventually reunite with his friends through the Ars Goetia.
