> - Corvus vowing to get his revenge on Nigel Northcut

**Corvus** (Japanese: **ロアリングフレア** *Roaring Flare*) is the greatest warrior and assassin of the New Shadow, and a villain from *Blazing Scarlet and Cybernetic Violet* saga. He has authority over all other assassins and ruthlessly leads them in their efforts to eliminate all those who oppose to the New Shadow.

After a failed assassination attempt on Nigel Gilligan-Northcut, Corvus ended up losing his right wing as it was sliced off by Nigel in a fight. Enraged by the defeat and the humiliation, Corvus swore revenge on Nigel and later returned from the base, Shadowswirl replaced his wing with a new one made of dark energy. His obsession with revenge caused Corvus to gradually descend into madness, ultimately casting away his devotion to The New Shadow and Shadowswirl in favor of getting his vengeance.

## Bio

### Personality

Corvus can best be described as an utterly cruel, bloodthirsty and ruthless warrior, who is perfectly willing to use any method to win a battle or accomplish his goals. Completely remorseless, unempathetic and brutal, Corvus was a force to be feared.

He was extremely devoted to The New Shadow and it's leader Shadowswirl. His loyalty and skill in battle earned him his title of Black Talon. This devotion could sometimes reach the level of fanaticism, as Corvus genuinely believed that a world governed by The New Shadow would be better for everyone. Although a part of his devotion was because as a high-ranking member of the cult, he was allowed to freely kill others, satisfying his intense bloodlust.

Corvus held immense respect for Shadowswirl. Corvus was impressed by Shadowswirl's power and his purely evil nature and promised to serve him in exchange for letting him join his ranks and kill as much as he pleased. Although as he descended into insanity, Corvus ultimately lost his respect for the sorcerer, deeming him to be a selfish, power-hungry maniac, but this really shows how hypocritical Corvus is as he himself threw everything else aside to satisfy his own selfish quest for revenge.

After his wing was sliced off by Nigel Northcut, Corvus started descending to madness. He slowly lost his interest in aiding The New Shadow in their plans, focusing solely on getting his own personal vengeance on Nigel. He became a vengeful, obsessed and unstable creature whose only desire was to make his new nemesis suffer.

Corvus' desire for vengeance increased even more, as time went on. He often shoved signs of insanity, such as laughing maniacally as he planned his revenge.

Eventually during his final battle with Nigel, Corvus lost all the remaining sanity he had, becoming nothing more than a psychotic shell of his former self. His madness made him almost animalistic in nature, as seen in his feral sounding growling as he attempts desperately to kill his nemesis.

Ironically, Corvus' rage and insanity was his greatest weakness. It was his rage that Nigel used to outsmart and finally defeat the crazy creature.

Overall, Corvus was a vengeful, psychotic, hateful, bloodthirsty and selfish monster, who sought only the destruction of his enemies. His obsession with revenge and killing the one who defeated him consumed him and drove him insane, ultimately leading to his downfall.

### Relationships

* **Shadowswirl**: His most faithful subject and extremely devoted to him. Corvus was impressed by Shadowswirl's power and his purely evil nature and promised to serve him in exchange for letting him join his ranks and kill as much as he pleased.
* **Darkfury**: Fellow general. Despite both of them are loyal to Shadowswirl, he was quite disappointed after Darkfury's Kurikage was quickly defeated, but is quick to dismiss it.
