## Appearance

Dwight was a slender young man with grey hair combed back and a braid hanging from the left side of his face. He wore a white hooded robe with golden lines and a green belt.

During his unjust trial and execution, he had a simple brown robe tied with a string below his belly. After his death his flesh and blood decayed, leaving only his skeletal remains and attire intact. With his decision to then absorb the Valley's miasma, his skeleton became tainted in a black color covered in a dark halo and a flickering light appearing from his left eye socket.

Following the creation and subjugation of Grom, Dwight's attire now consists of a dark green robe with it's hood, collar and sleeves displaying a golden ornamental border with red patterns. He additionally wears a dark violet cape with bright violet patterns.

## Personality

Dwight is an idealist who craved for world peace, which stems from his deep love and admiration for the heroine Claire. Together they fought and eventually defeated the Demon Lord of their era ending his reign of terror. Instead of getting honored for their efforts, both Dwight and Claire would get unjustly accused of conspiracy, getting both executed and thrown into the Valley of the Dead to be forever remembered as traitors. These events would lead to Dwights great hate and despise for humanity and the world. In his perspective, humans are inherently stupid because they act irrationally out of sheer fear and self-interest. Nevertheless he still cares for them due his respect towards Claire's wishes, going to great lengths in becoming the new Demon Lord and common enemy of the world, thus uniting all against him and therefore securing world peace.

## Power &. Abilities

**Genius Intellect:** Dwight was already a talented genius during his lifetime, mastering and developing many spells that gained him the title of Sage at a young age. Even as an undead, he has retained his sharp intelligence. As a natural strategist and tactician, he can analyze his enemies beheavior, plans, movement and attack patterns to deduce quick effective countermeasures. Potential threats are taken very seriously and he is always aware of his own and the enemies capabilities.

**Vast Knowledge:** Very well educated in various fields and the general, Dwight has a deep understanding of magic, history and different crafts. He can identify and understand the workings of supernatural beings, magic spells, traps, curses, newly developed tools and weapons by merely glancing at them. His accumulated knowledge comes in very handy for decision-making, when he lacks intel regarding unforseen new circumstances.

**Miasma:** Dwight can absorb the power, feelings and memories of the dead. The miasma is harmful as it corrupts, kills and transforms the living into undead. Furthermore it acts like an infinite source of power that can be infused into magic spells for greater potency or used directly for attacks in form of swords, spears or hands. Miasma also allows Dwight to use Necromancy.

**Necromancy:** After becoming a lich and absorbing the Miasma found in the Valley of the Dead, Dwight has gained the ability to command the undead. The long deceased arise as skeletons, while the newly deceased become ghouls. He can switch between individual undead to contain his consciousness and furthermore can create new individual undead made out of several people's remains by shapeshifting their bones.

**Immortality:** Dwight's lingering feelings of hate and regret have pushed him to become an undead incapable of dying like living beings from thirst, hunger, disease or old age. With his ability to absorb and control miasma as well the mastery of Necromancy, he can replace damaged body parts by exchanging them with other people's mortal remains or reincarnate into another skeleton altogether if his current body should be destroyed.

**Defying Fate:** Dwight's authority over the dead makes him unbound by the Will of the World.

**Invincible Swordsmanship:** Absorbing the feelings and memories of the deceased gave Dwight a plethora of skills. Among them were the memories of the legendary heroine he deeply loved and admired. The swordsmanship he acquired from her allows him to fight without magic and miasma against powerful enemies blessed by incredible miracles. He can deliver numerous lethal sword strikes within a short moment as well instinctively dodge and deflect attacks.

**Unarmed Combat Expert:** Dwight is a skilled hand-to-hand combatant capable of fighting and winning against multiple people. This skill also stems from a deceased memories.

**Dark Matter:** A mysterious power similar to Miasma. After defeating the Outer Beasts Gwen in the Spiritual Realm and defeating even more to sacrifice for the Valley of the Dead, Dwight has gained several new powers that are said to be more powerful than Forbidden Magic. However overusage causes Mental Pollution and even harms Dwight as an undead.

### Magic

As a Sage, Dwight is an unrivaled Magic Caster. He has a huge plethora of spells, all of them, which he can combine or use in various versatile ways for different applications. Even new spells Dwight encounters can become a beneficial for him, as he can decipher their workings and learn them within a short time. During his life time, he was already known to have vast magic power, but even so he was limited. Now as an undead powered by the Valley of the Dead, Dwight has started to modify and further develop new types of magic spells, which were impossible as a human.

**Perception Magic:** Dwight can detect magic spells, traps and living beings hidden by the naked eye.

**Far Sight Magic:** Allows Dwight to gaze into the far without a telescope, He often combines it with his Perception Magic to locate targets.

**Fire Magic:** Can summon enormous Fireballs capable of annihilating structures like castle gates and engulfing entire armies in a sea of flames. He can infuse it with Miasma to create a explosion that burns, kills and immediately turns the deceased into undead, which then go berserk to corrupt other living beings.

**Barrier Magic:** Dwight's main method to avoid damage is the usage of Barrier Magic capable of blocking projectiles such as arrows, spears of magic spells from the front or all directions. He can put several layers on top to increase the protection. However it can be overpowered by sheer strength and it is weak against holy magic as well holy-attribute imbued weapons.

**Water Magic:** Used as a sweeping wall to defend against certain types of magic attacks like Lightning or Fire Magic.

**Wind Magic:** Wind Magic for offense, defense and utility. Dwight can summon wind blades to slash foes from afar, broad gusts of wind to deflect projectiles and fire compressed air blasts to obliterate his surroundings. Furthermore he uses it when jumping from heights to reduce fall velocity or to fly.

**Forcefield Magic:** Used to stand mid-air or to be combined with other types of magic.

**Lightning Magic:** Used to stun and kill enemies.

**Chain Snake:** Can summon a magic snake that releases a strong neurotoxin through biting. The snake can also wind around the target and become a magic chain to restrain movements. It is a Forbidden Spell.

**Ivy &. Root Manipulation:** By imbuing roots and vines in the ground with his magic, Dwight can manipulate them, attack and restrain targets from a blind spot.

**Strengthening Magic:** Used to enhance the physical strength.

**Transfer Magic:** During his lifetime, Dwight could teleport as far as his eyes could see. It was a trump card with significant backlash, only to be used for withdrawal. As a powerful undead this has changed. His teleportation range significantly increased and due his near-limitless power, he can use it inexhaustibly, even transfering large groups of his army.

**Forbidden Space-Time Magic:** A more powerful forbidden variant of Transfer Magic, which can target two different locations and swap them. Dwight used this magic to transfer the entire World Tree Forest near his domain, while simultaneously transfering the ruins of a fallen country back to where the World Tree Forest was originally located.

**Mark of Enslavement:** People who willingly offer themself to Dwight as slaves can be marked with a curse. The curse inhibits any act of treason against Dwight by causing pain by the mere thought and agonizing death if actively attempting a treason. The mark is a curse that will be passed down to the descandants of the Mark.

**Curse Promise:** Dwight can force two parties to keeping their promise by cursing them. If they break their oath, their soul is cursed.

**Continiuous Multiplication:** A Combination of Forbidden Spells. Dwight can apply it on Fireballs or Lightning that absorb magic power on hit and then split off to create offshoots with the same effect. A perpetual chain reaction of exponentially growing attacks until the last living being has been destroyed.

### Equipment

**Claire's Sword:** A well-crafted sword with no special abilities. It was confiscated by the king who plotted the unjust trial and execution of Dwight and Claire. After taking his revenge, Dwight reclaimed the sword as a keepsake, storing it near the mortal remains of Claire. When Dwight leaves to fight a powerful enemy, he borrows the sword.
