Ansem Weems

**Ansem "Webber" Weems** was a notorious serial killer and one of the special children who participated in the 66th Hunger Games. He possessed **Imperial Wrath**, the hereditary power of the Andrealphus Clan.

He was killed by Andrew Gallagher.

## Appearance

Ansem was a man in his mid-20s, with short black hair and purple eyes so dark that they almost appeared black. His eyes turned blood-red when he used his demonic powers.

## Personality

At first, Ansem seemed to be a friendly and cheerful guy who genuinely wanted to make sure everyone escaped the Hunger Games without having to harm anyone. He was willing to endanger himself in order to protect others, and wasn't afraid to speak his mind against others' false honesty.

His true personality, however, was the furthest from the truth. He was an infamous serial killer known for some of the United States' most terrifying cases in recent years, to the point where urban legends were made about him. He was a cruel, sadistic, and cold-blooded murderer whose only wants in life was to "kill, murder, and to slaughter some more".

## History

He was born to Holly Beckett as the twin brother of Andrew, though due to her young age, both of them were given up to adoption. As a young child, he was regularly fed Lilith's blood by the Sisters of Istehar in secrecy, which transformed him into a special child. When he was 9 years old, he was adopted by the Clegane family and was renamed **Marcus Clegane**.

Even as a kid, he was known to be mentally unstable and seemed to gain enjoyment out of the misery of others. He laughed at the sight of people getting hurt and actively sought out people to fight, even if they were several years older than him, and he had already ended victorious. He could possibly be among the rare cases of a special child's demonic power manifesting itself at a young age, as all of the people who he fought with all ended up insane due to unknown reasons before killing themselves in horrific manners.

When he was 10 years old, he made his first kills which startled the United States, as during the Thanksgiving dinner, he mercilessly slit the throats of his entire adopted family, including his parents, his aunts and uncles, and his grandparents, before destroying their house in a gas explosion. Several neighbors tried to call the police about him before he could blow up the house but they all ended up foaming at the mouth before they could reach for the phone. Because of the public outcry, he was thrown in prison despite his young age.

Upon reaching adulthood, he was released from prison on charges of good behavior and was given witness protection due to unknown reasons, giving him the identity of **Ansem "Webber" Weems**, a fisherman who moved to Maine after his parents died of old age. Despite this, he was still a true monster inside as he was still able to pull a series of violent deaths right underneath his supervisors' nose, with his latest victim before he was summoned to the Phlegraean Fields being his birth mother, who he tracked down and burned alive as revenge for putting him up for adoption.

## Relationships

* **Andrew Gallagher**: Ansem's twin brother. Ever since he found out about his existence, he had been obsessed with the idea of killing. According to him, as the older brother, he found it was his responsibility to be the Cain to Andrew's Abel.

## Abilities

**Demonic Power**: As a special child, Ansem possessed demonic power and all the standard powers and abilities commonly attributed to that of a cambion, including the ability to cast spells and perform all forms of magic without a magic circle.

* **Imperial Wrath** (逆鱗, *Gekirin*): The signature hereditary ability of the Andrealphus Clan, which allowed the user to agitate their opponents and gradually drive them to insanity if they give him verbal responds to something the user says. He was skilled at this power, having been using it since he was still a little kid to provoke older kids into fighting him.
* **Mental Manipulation**: Like Andrew, he could control people's minds, actions, and behavior, though unlike his twin brother, his mental manipulation power didn't require his targets to give him verbal responses. Despite this, it did have a weakness as his targets could break his control if they were strong-willed enough.
* **Clairsentience**: He was able to detect people from a long distance, which allowed him to sense Sam about to use a sniper rifle on him and attempted to have him shoot himself.

**Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant**: He had shown to be a master at hand-to-hand combat and it required Sam and Andrew, both of whom are experienced hand-to-hand combatants, to defeat him. However, it should be noted that while fighting them, he had already received a heavy blow in his head from Sam, enough to make his skull dented, so it was unclear if that was his real skills.

## Trivia

* He was older than Andrew by 5 minutes and 24 seconds.
* He was a devoted Christian and would be easily angered if anyone bash his religion.
* Due to the fact there are urban legends told about him, it's unclear if it's possible to summon his soul back from the afterlife as a ghost, most likely a revenant, like other urban legends like Bloody Mary or the Candyman.
