> -Vik to Carolus in the underground bunker in Wayfar.

## General Information

Viktor was once a human transformed into a Cyclops sometime before the year 0. After becoming a Cyclops his mentality and physicality were altered to be more homicidal and crazed. Recently Vik and his allies have freed Hermes from his prison and forced the people of Eventide into the Nether. Along with Captain Nik and Winter he plans on starting the second Chaos War.

### Who is Vik?

Vik is the former prince of Ghulfrost and the previous Chief of Wayfar.

#### As a Leader

Even after years of leading a country Vik has only ever worked together well with one other person, the other founding member of Wayfar, Vapper.

He is careless when leading a squadron and is known to cause friendly fire to his allies, because of this he mainly fights solo.

He is extremely deadly on the battlefield, however as stated before, his allies can become one of the casualties.

## History

### Early Life - Downward Spiral

A son of the Royal Family, Vik was destined to take the throne of Ghulfrost. He lived with them, his parents, the King and Queen. He lived peacefully for many years, until the day his mother had contracted an unknown illness. Several years would pass, and what seemed to be unending hypothermia kept the Queen in its grasp. It would continue this, even as her years began to show. Even as the kingdom would expand, and even as her husband would be found a liar. The King had been ousted as a usurper of the true king, and banished from the kingdom. Soon after this, the Queen would die.

### Downward Spiral - Never Ending Agony

Because of all the anger and rage, Vik would run away from home which would eventually lead to his eternal suffering. The moment he ran out the door of the mansion he was doomed. Two unknown mercenaries would see him running and hit him with a very well aimed tranquilizer dart. He would soon find himself in the hands of 6 robed individuals. After 2 years of torture his mind was broken and his body tenderized, he was ready for the ceremony. After one long night he was pumped full of medicines that would keep him alive during the ceremony. He would awaken strapped down to a table with pipes over his mouth and nose and needles in his veins. One by one the cultists began chanting their ritualistic song as a strange red mist filled the pipes and a blood-like ooze would creep into his veins. Everything that he once knew and had would be taken from him in a matter of seconds.

### Retribution

Vik's body would begin to lengthen, twist and contort. Within 30 minutes, Vik grew strong enough to break the restraints placed on him. As he recovered from the process, his new form would become apparent, set on by the single ever gazing eye. Using the newfound strength at his disposal, Vik mutilated his hand into a weapon. He then killed the cultists responsible for his transformation. During this process, Vik learned how to siphon Anima directly from a target, as decapitating the target with his teeth would consume all Anima within it.

### Outnumbered

Vik would not have long to enjoy his newfound strength, as LPS-007 "Peacekeepers" were dispatched immediately when LPS-003 "The Watchful Eyes" foresaw a disturbance in the nearby forests. Along with the militia of the villages in the area, five Lunar Paladins attacked Vik. Vik knew he could not kill all of them, but attacked regardless. He would later be captured, and trapped in the Nether.

### Time in the Nether

While in the Nether, he roamed freely. Killing and eating whatever happened to cross his path. During this time, he would fashion for himself a pickaxe, made of netherite. He would call this pickaxe "Anima seeker". It would take the place of his lost hand. At some point in his time here, Vik was found by Dakarda, although the simple mind of Vik did not care much for Dakarda, instead noting him as a target he could not eat, and thus paid him no mind. His time in the Nether was far from brief, but not eternal.

### A New Beginning

Vik was alerted by the sound of a Nether Portal opening, and saw four men in diamond armor exit the portal. Vik killed the four with ease, and exited through their portal. This portal would take him to modern day Wayfar, where he met Vapper.

## Behind the Curtain

> Carolus you don't understand its over, all of it.
>
> -Vik after being revealed as a traitor.

### Treason

During the year 415 Vik would accept Carolus's offer to join the OVA. Though secretly, Vik would plan to use the OVA to get what he wanted.

Over the course of a few months Vik would gain Carolus and King Saturns trust even helping Carolus come to power in Ghulfrost.

### Making a Deal with The Devil

Vik (behind the backs of his allies) would contact Hermes through Snow and agree to help Snow release Hermes for the price of Hermes help in starting the next Chaos War. During this time Snow would be forced into a corner by the OVA at the Library of Herodotus.

### Split Decision

Vik couldn't allow Snow to be captured by the OVA. Instead he offered to imprison Snow in "The Soul Furnace" a prison Vik had constructed for himself if he ever were to lose himself again.

### Trust in the Untrusted

The OVA allowed Snow to be taken to the prison under the condition of having the entire forces of the OVA escort him into the prison. Vik allowed this. Once they arrived at the prison Vik stopped the OVA from entering stating that "Snow is in my control now. You wont be seeing him for a long time" after some persuasion the OVA left Vik and Snow and returned to their homes relishing in their victory.

## God of Deception

> Took you long enough...
>
> -Snow to Vik.

Vik attempted to give Snow gear preparing to charge into battle and strike the OVA down as they had their backs turned. Instead Snow insisted Vik put him into some type of cell for the time being. Vik did not understand at first but in the end accepted.

### No Time Left

The OVA had got their hands on an arrow that would cleanse magic from whoever it hit. This put Vik in red alert. Quickly he called together Captain Nik and Winter to formulate a plan to keep the OVA from cleansing Snows magic. Luckily the arrow had been given to Vik because his status of Warden over Snow. The trio sped to the nether as quick as they could explaining what had happened to Snow.

### Plan in Motion

Snow quickly barked out orders to the the three telling Vik to stall the OVA, Winter to use his tech to make himself look like Snow, and Nik to take down the barrier at Old Kathar. This was happening now and Vik had nearly no time to prepare.

### The Tick of The Clock

The OVA forces arrived at the prison prepared to end Snow once and for all. Before the OVA can enter the halls of the nether Vik trips an alarm making the OVA think something or someone had broken out of the prison giving Snow all the time he needed to prepare Hermes escape.

## Broken Promises

After Snow arrived at the prison, a scuffle took place between the OVA and Snow. Vik helped the OVA fight until Snow called Vik off. Carolus and Saturn stared Vik in the eye as he betrayed them without making a face. Carolus knew this was coming. He knew something was wrong.... It was too late. Vik had broken his promise.

#### Side Note: Broken Promises

Carolus knew that a betrayal was coming, but not who it was coming from. He was close to exposing Viktor at several points, but the trust that Carolus had placed in Vik continually got in his way. The only way he knew anything was wrong was because the part of his mind that was controlled by The Shadow prophesized it weeks beforehand.

### The Release

Vik and Winter lead the prisoners to Old Kathar where they were either placed either in the holding cell or held hostage.

Vik made eye contact with Artemis. They tried to say something to him but couldn't get it out. Vik knew what they were trying to say. He could see the pain in their eyes, it meant nothing to him.

### 400 Years and Waiting

Hermes was free. Snow was gone. It was just Vik, Nik, Winter, and the transformed Koin and Vasha. Hermes told the world to flee to Monteriggioni. The Forces of Hermes gathered their strength as they prepared to march into the great Katharian city of Monteriggioni.

## The Attack on Monteriggioni

> Its going to be a Massacre.
>
> -Vik to the Captain outside of Monteriggioni.

### No Hope Left

Vik lead the assault on the city, spawning a wither before the forces of the OVA could notice. Many would fall in the battle. The death toll would be almost half of the OVA force. Even when the Lady Lunar appeared the fight was destined to be lost. This would cost the overworld their home as they were forced into the Nether soon after the defeat.

### The Death Toll

1. Kuro

2. Lizard

3. Aizza

4. Artemis

5. Cheese

6. Phoenix

7. B

## The Discovery of Adaptation

> it feels.. It feels good.
>
> -Vik after The Attack on Monteriggioni.

Vik cut down many people in The Attack. Aizza was weak after being drained of her power, he rammed his sword into her throat and nearly zero Anima came from the wound. Vik was enraged. His sword was still logged in Aizza's throat when from behind he sensed something coming towards him. Quickly he ducked to see Deliria firing spells at him, After knowing she would just run if he ran after her, he pearled out onto a building. Using Chronovision he searched the courtyard for a food source. His eye connected to a defenseless Artemis. Knowing of their Nether inhabitant origin, a grim smile creeped up his face. He empowered his pearl with a small burst of anima and sent it flying towards the ground in front of Artemis. They ran but Vik was on their tail. Every footstep they made Vik's blade connected to their back. They couldn't run any longer. It was over. They fell to their knees giving Vik one last look of sadness. He smiled at the Half Enderman. He picked Artemis up by their throat plunging his sword into their stomach. He then shifted his hand to their arm before biting a chunk out of Artemis's throat. He quickly drained the anima. He could see the soul leaving their body. He grabbed it by its hair and ripped it out of the corpse. He felt something new. Small purple particles started appearing outside of Vik. He could feel himself changing in many ways. His arms lengthened. He could see where his pearls would land depending on where he would throw them. He was proficient in using the pearls. Using his new found ability he cut down a fleeing Kuro. The Lady screamed to retreat. The overworld fled to the villa. Vik's work was done. He had won, it felt... Amazing. After the fight his adaptation began to wear off. He learned of his new ability by testing on civilians left in their houses in the once great Walled City. Vik returned home, fed his dogs, and laid down for a good nights rest.

## Abilities

### Adaptation <ACTIVE ABILITY>

*After making a successful kill, Viktor charges himself with their anima. In doing so, several of their traits are copied onto Viktor. Unfortunately for those still alive after the fact, weaknesses are rarely inherited.*

### Anima-Starved <PASSIVE ABILITY>

*Despite Viktor's cordial nature when within his natural state, Viktor is far stronger than many believe him to be. When Anima-Starved, The Real Monster will be triggered.*

### The Real Monster <DEACTIVATED>

*Once Anima-Starved, it will take mere seconds for Viktor to show his true colors. While in his natural state, he is a friendly near-human, which is the closest he will ever get to being who he was meant to be as a prince of Ghulfrost. Once Anima-Starved however, his signature twin-colored eye will become jet black. The veins running through his body will coarse with raw power, enabling him to act out feats of strength impressing even Snow. There is no way to calm him down except for him to find more Anima through the death of another being, or ridiculously heavy sedation.*

### Enhanced Vision <PASSIVE ABILITY>

*As a cyclops, he is naturally better at seeing things. This includes the ability to see through invisibility potions. Any form of invisibility stronger than this cannot be compromised.*
