Vincent

Vincent Stako is one of the main protagonists of Tales Of Capellus: Redux. He is an aetherologist who is one of the founders of guild "Harthia's Greatest", and is commonly seen walking with an umbrella making fun of the myth of vampires dying in the sun.

## Appearance

Stako is a lanky vampire who has black hair with purple highlights. Clothing-wise he looks very disheveled, he wears a black coat with purple fur with a white dress shirt and a tie. Despite already being lanky he wears combat boots with many straps on them. Hidden behind his hair or jacket most of the time is his family crest on his neck.

Expression-wise he usually has a smug or condescending expression on his face when in a good mood, and an unamused expression on his face whenever he's bothered.

## Personality

### Personality

Vincent's outward appearance is lacking emotion, as he is much too carefree with anyone, including his friends. however, he holds strong emotions towards both friends and foes that only come out the most in intense situations. On multiple occasions, Vincent has been shown to find a way out of tricky situations, or has been able to decide the best course of action when others cannot. these reasoning abilities come in handy when organizing guild activity as well as working with other guild members.

### Fighting Style

In fights, he likes to toy with those who are significantly weaker than him, fighting them with an umbrella. Those who are on par, he faces with earnest. He’d act pompous to irk them as that may give him an edge and because of his sadistic tendencies, but he wouldn’t actually get ahead of himself and see every fight as definite victory. Towards those stronger than him, he’d do feint attacks, utilize his range, and begin to start reading and analyzing his opponent to the point to where he can adapt a bit and level the playing field. If he realizes the fight is going to be tough, his face can tend to become more sour.

## Powers and Abilities

### Physical Prowess

Due to being a vampire, Vincent is able to gain aether back by drinking it from someone else, the downside of this being his hunger. He also has heightened strength, agility, and sight compared to the average human.

### Aether Prowess

Stako has the ability to wield lightning and blood aether. With the lighting he is able to create and conjure it at any time. He applies this ability in many ways such as using it as a ranged option, a flashbang, to amplify his attacks, etc. With blood he is able to solidify, vaporize, and liquify it functioning similarly to water aether. Additionally, he can apply soul aether to either.

#### Soul Weapon Techniques

 Shrieking Oblivion
 Wraith's Wrath

## Weapons

### Regalia: Crimson Splitter

The Crimson Splitter is a blade originally forged by Kayde and Sylphie. It is a curved blade with a rapier-like guard meant for cutting. After the blade was forged, Stako infused it with an intense amount of blood aether causing it to be "reborn" as a blood regalia. To unsheathe the blade, he has to pull it out of a pool of blood. This blade is also capable of absorbing blood to use in combat or evolve to its unleashed state. The blade is also capable of adapting to its opponents aether barrier with the blood it consumes.

#### Unleashed

The unleashed state is the "regalia" part of the Crimson Splitter. It is gained by the original blade absorbing enough blood. Once it absorbs enough blood, it then becomes comprised of blood now with a serrated blade with a more aggressive look to it. Now that the blade is comprised of blood it is able to reshape to many things at will. Mid-combat he usually increases the blade's size to attack more people, reshapes the blade to become a whip-like blade, etc.

#### Oblivion

Oblivion is the result of Stako combining the Wraith's Talon and the Crismon Splitter. It has the properties of both blades.

**UMBRELLA**

An umbrella Stako took from the people who raised him at his old village, nothing special.

**G-LOCK**

## Equipment

## Transformations

### Archfiend (the wraith unleashed, bane of all corrupted aether)

Archfiend is an aether shroud that Stako developed while wondering how he will deal with Suric's immense power. Naturally Stako came to the conclusion of using the unnatural counter to Suric, soul aether. Archfiend is Stako coming close to mastering soul aether, meaning he can now use every single wraith weapon at once and the potency of his soul aether is increased greatly. It also increases the amount of nails he can produce.

### Archfiend: Hollow

Archfiend has a second state known as hollow. This state is awakened by impaling himself with the Crimson Splitter. In the hollow state, Stako drains all of his blood and creates a sentient blood anomaly that has the properties of the Crimson Splitter. The anomaly is controlled by his soul and has armor made out of blood.
