## Backstory

Rico was born out of a normal family and had a great childhood, all of his young adulthood was perfectly normal as well. He studied in medical school, and became a heart surgeon, which he only did to save up money. He met his wife a while later, however his wife turned out to be a disguised titan, something he would only figure out later in life. He lived a normal life afterwards, he had a son and they were an average family. This all ended however, as Rico unlocked the power of a stand. His stand at the time was called Obscure Haze, it had the power to fill people's lungs with a pseudo-mist imbued with dark energy, that ripped cells apart and destroyed organs. His stand was either fully independent or unable to be controlled by him, and his wife died due to the powers of it. His son seemingly had the same fate, although later it was revealed he did not die. Rico, know calling himself Typhon, traveled across regions to find someone that could bring his wife back to life and help him control his stand. In one of those trips his stand attacked Edgy. Although Edgy defeated him, Edgy chose to get out of there and leave. Afterwards, Typhon came to the location where Mark, Luis and Edgy lived, to his surprise, they had set a trap for him using gasoline and fire. He was burned alive and died. Four people that found his search for reviving the dead and recuperating lost ones used an ancient spell they found to bring Typhon back to life, however, once they did this, they cursed Typhon to reincarnate again and again as different people. Now, he and his followers, many reincarnations later, have questionable goals, never to be known what Typhon wants now.

## Personality

Rico is usually portrayed as a neutral evil, recruiting people that seek power and gather power himself. Although he isn't exactly evil, he has done things that could say otherwise. He seems to be cruel at times, but he does care for most of his followers in his own ways. He is not devoid of love, he simply has lost love so long ago he does not seek it anymore, to the point where it is unknown if you could make him be the person he was back then. He seems calm and collected, but usually very easily gets angry and hateful. Most reincarnations either reduce this or amplify it.

## Abilities

### Dark Magic

Typhon knows how to wield many spells, these including necromancy, healing wounded people, manipulating emotions to make what he's saying more credible, analyze auras, teleport, and his most well-known move, the Reincarnation Ritual.

### Feeling Conversion

By absorbing the negative emotions of people around him, Rico is able to convert those emotions into stamina, healing, dark energy and other things. This can be used to reduce negative emotions for other people, amplify his own power and gain more energy.

### Reincarnation Ritual

By saying various phrases in latin to manipulate a person's mind and using his own aura to manifest power into his hands, Rico is able to make someone he picks be able to reincarnate upon death. This is done through hand-shaking.

## Trivia

* Rico did not know he married a titan, he only figured this out once she was dead, as she tried to defend herself from his stand.
* The ritual used to revive Rico the first time he died is not the same ritual he uses on his followers, his ritual is faster and more efficient, while the other ritual required 3 people, however, this ritual makes the person who reincarnates stronger than the ritual Rico uses.
* Rico has ties with the god of necromancy, Ulruk, and claims to have made deals with him in exchange for his humanity, causing his skin to turn green.
* Rico, unbeknownst by anyone else in the RP, has 3 huge claw marks in his right arm, that cover the area between the base of his hand and almost reach his right shoulder, they are of a vivid, crimson color, and they are not able to be healed, they stay on his arm no matter what reincarnation he's in.
