Ebonor

The leader of the anti-death gang and the respected owner of the Sha-valiti-greatblade

## Appearance

Ebonor, also known as Sha Deslo Ebonor, is a tan-skinned man who wears some rather scrapped-together armor, consisting mainly of metalic plates and leather straps. Underneath he wears some jeans and a green T-shirt. On top of his breastplate the iconic symbol of the Anti-Death gang can be seen. He also wears a large scarf that is worn like a mask over his face, and he has a red Mohawk, much like the Ebonor before him.

## History

Starting as the nephew of Sha Bruno Ebonor, Ebonor, or as his formal name, Sha Deslo Ebonor, was never really connected to his uncle at first, until the two were dragged into the Void's End, in which they were promptly acquainted with Rick "Redboot" Ebonor, who saw potential in Bruno, who quickly became the local smith. After a long life, Bruno had a fateful encounter with the father of Reapers, Death, and almost killed the future Ebonor's uncle. Due to an injury he had in the fight, however, he bestowed his blade upon Deslo, who became the next Ebonor. Spending most of his time training and patrolling New Karan, he soon met a Scientist named Nicko, who offered to give him a place to live in Severed York, the city he researched in. After having obtained a large garage from Nicko and having set up everything he considered he "needed" inside of it, he met a man who he quickly made friends with named Jim. The two quickly accepted each other as Death Hunters, however their career together seemed to end abnormally quickly when Died's acid seemed to mortally wound Jim. This was quickly repaired with cybernetics, luckily, thanks to the smithing skills of Deslo and the programming knowledge of Nicko. The cyborg has since said that he owes a life debt to Deslo, and has since been a faithful and steadfast member of the Anti-Death Gang. Later on, Ebonor heard news from the northwest about Lord Umbra's death at the hands of a youth named Max, and also heard about that Max had since moved to Severed York. He immediately moved to hire the unexpectedly skilled man into his ranks. Although confused, Max accepted the job offer, which was quickly followed up by intense training for hours at a time from Deslo. Still, Ebonor was happy to see that his new recruit was determined to make him proud, and displayed this in his first mission, where he and Jim took on Fate and Died together, while allowing Deslo himself destroy the plague generator that the Reapers were engineering, and his new recruit even managed to knock Died into a state where Ebonor could finish the reaper permanently. After a few successful encounters with the Reapers, a new museum opened up in Severed York, run by Nicko. To convenience his friend, Ebonor decided to have he and the rest of his team stop by to visit. Ebonor was soon greeting by the Data Navigator known as DN-1000. Due to the tiny robot's temperamental nature, and Nicko frequently speaking to it in an almost brotherly sort of way, Ebonor imminently inquired his ally on the nature of the automaton. As Ebonor was one of the only people the scientist referred to as a 'friend', then he revealed to him that the strange DN unit was powered by an organic brain that had mysteriously washed up on shore earlier. This immediately aroused Ebonor's suspicion, and he then contacted the rest of the group to investigate the whole building. His newest recruit soon found what he was looking for: the massive skeleton of the being known as Dece Noko, who was now piloted by the seemingly rabbid DN unit that Ebonor had found suspicious earlier. Though he carried the fight, Noko was soon restored to flesh by a sorceress later discovered to be Tharchilla. Still, Ebonor overpowered Dece Noko, killing him. DN-1000 and the brain within it still remained, however, and was jailed accordingly. Between these events, Ebonor quietly welcomed Thestra into his office, allowing her to sleep, live and eat in a room closed off from the rest of the gang, with a small balcony that allowed her to fly around in Ebonor's personal courtyard. he also talked with her frequently as a mental support of sorts. He didn't reveal her to his comrades, however, due to a sensation of dread at the idea of them mistaking her for a monster. He later got a report regarding a strange influx of Reapers in Kait Karan, and not being the sort of man to miss such a case, he immediately organized Max and Jim to come with him to investigate. What he discovered was a tall feminine creature that referred to itself as Princess Tharchilla, who then proceeded to attack the group. Even in it's home turf, Ebonor put up a strong fight against the Draigis, before the creature retreated quickly when it saw an old man who introduced himself to Deslo as The Old Artist. Ebonor was quite skeptical of the old figure, and spent roughly a week trying to crack the case of the Draigis that haunted Kait-Karan. His conclusion was not one that he liked, as all signs pointed toward the princess of the kingdom herself, Martha. However this theory of Ebonor's was quickly confirmed when Martha invited Max to have a talk together in private, and Max unthinkingly followed. Well aware of Max's reckless nature, however, Ebonor had actually installed an audio recording device into Max's armor, allowing him to hear what was going on inside. With the help of Jim, he was able to break into Martha's research quarters, to reveal the Dragis, who's full name was Tharchilla Matha Kait, pinning Max to a wall. Although they thought it was going to be an easy fight, knowing that Draigi could not function properly in indoor settings, however much to Ebonor's dismay, Sir Deltus charge into the room quickly after they attacked the Draigis princess, revealing Deltus to be a second Draigis in the kingdom, followed quickly by Tharchilla's siblings, Celtra and Prantos, who also revealed themselves to the gang as a third and fourth Draigis. Luckily, Max managed to majorly injure Tharchilla, briefly diverting the attention of all the Draigi and letting them escape. However the largest problem quickly became apparent when Sir Deltus entered a murderous fury that sent Max into the hospital for two months once they escaped and managed to get their newest recruit to safety. Unfortunately, they soon discovered that Tharchilla had announced that not she and her family, but the Anti-Death Gang were Draigi, despite swearing to do otherwise when cornered in the battle they earlier had. After this, Jim soon received a transmission from his uncle, known as Harry. Apperantly it was to "remove some weeds," however the concern in old comrade's voice told Ebonor that this "weeding" had far more to it. After being impressed by Harry's hive of hummingbirds, he soon met the 'weeds' Harry had been referring to: a massive kingdom of serpent people who had been trying to take over Harry's land for some time now. However, despite difficulties that included the Serpent Queen having a rebuilt Lord Umbra on her side, as well as being forced to fight through a legion of serpentine soldiers, Ebonor and his gang made it through and purged the treat for some time. Later on, Ebonor was presented a young man who went by the name of Ness, also known later on as Sir Nesmot, who wished to join the gang. Seeing the distinctive scar marks on his face, Ebonor almost instantly identified him as a Draigis, an promptly rejected the offer. Ness, however, stated he was "not one of the bad ones," thus making Ebonor cautiously shift his opinion, however he made it as clear as possible to Ness that of he betrayed the group, his head was going to be severed by the Ebonor blade. He shortly sent Max and the young Draigis on a mission where the ADG first saw signs of The Dynasty, with Max claiming he had met a "freaky red guy" named the Forbidden Samurai. After this, Ebonor did more research, shortly before Severed York was attacked by The Reason. After having a shocking truth exposed to him by the Shadion that he refused to ever state, he seemed to go mad, attacking all of his comrades and treating The Reason as though he owed him a favor. After having eventually being restrained and having been given time to contemplate the recent events following the end of the raid that ended with Max smashing a diner sign on The Reason's head, Ebonor forgave the group and continued his job and lead the ADG once more. Roughly four months later, he had heard news from the south about a Death Knight wandering the southern plains. Immediately assembling a squad to investigate the said sightings. He was soon stunned to hear from Max that the said knight was not one that served the Reapers, however it was Sir Deltus in blackened armor. This changed Ebonor's stance on the issue massively, and it soon changed to a code red emergency when his youngest ally also reported the Forbidden Samurai in the same area. This led to the discovery of The Dome shortly after, and the discovery of his comrade Max, transformed by the now Queen Tharchilla into a Psuedodraigis. The turn of events left Ebonor stuck in his office for days at a time, planning out possible and sometimes outlandish ways of stopping The Dome's construction and reversing Max's transformation. Though he couldn't seem to find a way to help the problem at first, he soon decided the time was appropriate to introduce Max to Thestra, who quickly befriended the young member of the ADG and soon told him what Max needed to hear, words that even touched Ebonor. Later on, he fought alongside his old partner Heftrix as well as Jim to break into the Dome, and though they got painfully, they were all felled by Sir Deltus, earning the raven knight the title "The Unstoppable" from his betrothed, also known as Tharchilla. Ebonor quickly went back to the drawing board, now formulating a new plan to stop The Dome from reaching completion. However he was soon angered when he discovered Max was attempting to make deals with Zesprin to get his human form back. After a thorough scolding, Max halted these habits. It was only after another plan was eventually reformatted, and after vigorous training that he managed to bring The Dome down, in which he and Heftrix were able to fight Sir Deltus to a standstill.

## Powers

Ebonor is best known for his ability to swing the Sha Valiti Ebonor with speed and grace, giving him a huge edge in combat. However he seems to have an odd sword technique, or some device that allows him to bound through the air boundlessly. His skills as a blacksmith are unmatched. Aside from that, however, his strength, vitality, and stamina are all well within human limitations, though are all quite high.

## Personality

Ebonor is strict, disciplined, and above all else serious. He acts in such a way that shows his little tolerance for games in a crisis scenario, as well as talking down to those who lack his strict code of honor. Still, he behaves in a way that feels like a mix between a mature older brother and an honor-bound father to those who he hires or befriends. Another notable factor is that though he dislikes playful tricks and games in critical scenarios, he is still open to them in times of peace, and can even tell a joke with relative ease.

## Equipment

Ebonor dresses in heavy, though home made plate armor that has been damaged though long unrepaired through his countless battles with death, as well as wearing a long scarf that covers most of his face. His weapon is the Sha Valiti Ebonor, the blade capable of slaying Reapers. Under his armor he usually wears jeans and a green T-shirt.
