Donatello

Donatello is the first dark lord and former angel

Archangel Donatello was created some time after Leonardo. In the earlier part of their lives, Donatello and Leonardo were close friends.
Donatello resided within the Council of Life's palace for a large part of his early life, learning and training under the guidance of The Grand Seraphim.
As time passed, Donatello grew apart from Leonardo, as he became more heavily focused on training in combat. Over time, Donatello trained his mind and body to near perfection, becoming optimized almost solely for military combat.
Donatello's battle prowess and charisma were easily recognized, and he quickly rose up through the ranks of The Council of Life's military before being appointed to the Commander-In-Chief of the angels' army.
With Archangel Donatello's title came the power to supersede the political authority of all other Archangels in The Council of Life, as well as every other angelic order below them.
Donatello served as a responsible leader, guiding his men and women through tough times, steering them through harsh storms. Later, Donatello would eventually train Archangel Cassiel, Breaker of Souls who would then train the other two Breakers. Donatello most respected The Breakers as fighters and warriors, holding them to the highest regard in the Angelic army. He viewed them as his closest lieutenants, along with Archangel Israfel, whom he had also personally trained.
There eventually came a time when The Grand Seraphim appointed The Five Heavenly Kings- a group of the angels he trusted most - to serve as his advisors, placing the kings on a higher position of physical and political power than Donatello, who up until then was second in power only to The Grand Seraphim himself.
Donatello expected to at least become a Heavenly King himself, believing that The Grand Seraphim had trusted him enough for the position. However, that never happened.

Although he could help but feel slightly jaded by the fact he was never selected to become the Sixth Heavenly King, Archangel Donatello nonetheless tried to put aside his own personal selfish desires for the sake of properly leading his soldiers.

### The Xir'algath War/Demonic Uprising

During the first war with The Xir'algath, Archangel Donatello and his forces were severely weakened by the Xir'algath's relentless assault. In a moment of dark desperation, seeing no other option, Donatello dove right into the Chao Umbra, absorbing its raw power and empowering himself with Xalnergy in an attempt to become powerful enough to drive off the Xir'algath. Despite his good intentions, however, the Xalnergy corrupted his entire mind, body and soul, and Donatello turned evil.

Now, nothing was sacred to him any longer. The Xalnergy had opened his eyes to a truth that he was previously blinded from while in The Council of Life. What's even more, was that he now finally understood The Xir'algath's motives, even somewhat sympathizing with them to a point. Donatello "realized" that he was entitled to a far greater and grander status than he already had prior. Why lead an army of a race, he figured, when you could be the leader of your own entire race, along with many others? And so, Donatello endeavored to use his powers of Xalnergy to corrupt the Five Heavenly Kings, as well as many other Angels’ in The Council of Life on a large scale. Donatello ultimately corrupted 1/3 of all the angels in total, and led his army of demons in a rebellion against the Council of Life and The Grand Seraphim.
After a certain period of battling, The Five Heavenly Kings, along with Israfel, Daemonium and all the other demons, were eventually cast out of The Realm of Life by Archangel Michael and Raphael. They were banished to the realm of Icelnebratia.
Following The Xir'algath's defeat, Archangel Donatello fled persecution by The Council of Life and went into hiding, forming The Ancient Order Of The Dark Lords to use as a personal army in place of his army of fallen angels.
Archangel Cassiel subsequently resigned from his role in The Council of Life, as he went into self-imposed exile and embarked on a search for Donatello as he tried to bring him to justice. Archangel Leonardo, feeling partly responsible for Donatello's fall from grace, accompanied Cassiel to help him.
In their final battle, Leonardo defeated Donatello, and locked him in the newly-constructed Whitegate Fortress, becoming its first prisoner. Donatello remained as the highest-profile inmate of Whitegate.
Unable to directly run the Dark Lord organization anymore, Donatello gave a portion of his power to his closest lieutenant Israfel, who became the new leader and Second Dark Lord, starting a dynasty of future Dark Lords down the line.

### Escape From Whitegate

When The prisoners of Whitegate mounted their prison break, Donatello joined with them in the escaping. They all escaped together and later met The Dark Heroes, and they all soon found themselves coming under the employment of Kreel, the queen of The Xir'algath, who took interest in their destructive abilities.

### Cataclysm

Donatello would then go on to free The Five Heavenly Kings and all the demoms from Icelnebratia, recruiting them into the service of Queen Kreel and The Xir'algath.
Later, in the final battle against The Xir'algath's army, Magnus encountered and fought Donatello, who tapped into his full power and transformed into The Devil.
After The Architect's defeat, all the demons, including Donatello, were cured and turned back into normal angels. Archangel Donatello, heavy with guilt for his actions, went into self-imposed exile from The Council of Life, even despite his pardon by Seraph Michael. He now wanders The Multiverse, seeking to repent for his sins as he defeats evil wherever it may be found.

## Powers

### Angel Powers

**Supernatural Charisma:** Donatello possesses immense charisma that transcends mortal limitations, allowing him to sway possibly anyone as well as entire communities to his cause and service with barely any effort, captivated by his almost irresistible personal gravity and an overriding desire to be a part of his world and contribute to its fulfillment. This power applies equally to any sentient species, including the supernatural ones, and may even inspire loyalty in entities that are normally incapable of it. While the power cannot directly override others’ will and values, his persuasive abilities are so powerful that he may convince them of anything remotely believable.

**Leadership Intuition:** Donatello possesses an innate understanding of how to be a great leader, allowing him to effectively keep order and morale.

**Light Manipulation:** Donatello can create, shape and manipulate visible light.

**Blue Flame:** The Blue flame is the first ray of the spectrum. The energy of this Flame is the first and final synthesis, the source of all other flames of the spectrum. The Blue Flame is at the core of every strength and energy. The first Ray is represented as the power of intent, cause, direction, centralization and unity, and its keynote is will - Divine Will. The basic qualities of the Blue Flame are manifested through the energies of power, strength, faith, and protection.

**Primordial Energy Manipulation:** Donatello can create, use, shape and manipulate Primordial Energy.

### Demon Powers

**Demonic Force Manipulation:** Donatello is able to utilize strong demonic power. This ability not only grants the him great strength and control over numerous variations of demonic abilities, but also allows him to overwhelm weaker demons as well as rival that of powerful demonic entities.

**Hell-Fire Manipulation:** Donatello can generate and manipulate the cursed flames of Hell, which can completely destroy anything. The color of the flames varies but may be black, blue, white, or the normal shades of fire, although probably in some way noticeably unusual. Sometimes, the flames are not generated but instead summoned from the depths of Hell itself. Hell-fire can cause excruciating pain upon contact or instead cause instant death.

**Demon Summoning:** Donatello can summon demons and/or demonic beings to his aid for a variety of reasons, such as helping in combat.

**Demon Manipulation:** With the use of Xalnergy, Donatello can create, manipulate, and destroy demons to do his bidding. He possesses the capability to create and command an entire army of demons.

**Xalnergy Manipulation:** Unlike Archangel Cassiel, who has been shown to have some restraint in his use of Xalnergy, Donatello has completely surrendered himself to the destructive energy, even partially merging with it to a certain extent. This arguably makes him a more powerful Xalnergy user than Cassiel, and in fact possibly *the* most powerful Xalnergy user in the entire Multiverse.

## Weapons

### Luxtrum

Luxtrum was forged by the Angel Blacksmiths, and has the same capabilities as every standard Angelic Steel Weapon. What makes this large knife, almost like a short sword, so formidable, is the magic enhancement that allows Donatello to telepathically use it while doing something else at that time. So he could send it flying like an arrow and move it around in the air while fighting. It is a formidable weapon and its piercing capabilities are highly potent.
