Russ Chain

Russ is the leader of The Chained Faction and one that has a grudge against the Blade Family because of what they did to him when he was young. He was given his God Slayer powers from Bliss as he was powerless before he was given powers from Bliss because she thought he was the right person for the ability. He has the ability to maybe perfectly copy other people powers from seeing them fight.

He has declared himself to be the strongest and has fought Quinn in the Chained Wedding. He was supposedly killed by Quinn but was revived by Bliss. He has later lost his ability to fight someone strong because the person who powers his ability with MC cells is dead but he has later regained his former powers after bliss has taught him to absorb Mc cells from nest crystals. He is also a God Slayer.

## Appearance

He wasn't wearing his beast armour. Instead, he had come out with no shirt on, only trousers, showing off his lean body as he walked. Now with his top off, the large tattoo with black chains was completely visible. It was going across his back and chest, crossing over where his heart was, which also had a tattoo of its own, being locked up by several chains.

## Personality

He has very self conscious and cunning personality. He does not hesitate to betray and abandon anyone to get what he wants. This was shown when he has abandoned the people from Chained Faction because he thought that they where not going to survive this fight.

## History

He has tried to wed Jessica on the instructions of Bliss. While in the middle of the ceremony Quinn has arrived on the planet to save her. When Russ asks who Quinn is he has told him that his name is Quinn Talen and he has come to rescue Jessica. Russ did not agree to this and they started fighting Quinn has summoned Ray in order to help him fight. While he in the middle of the fight he was teleported with Russ into the woods. Russ has started to use his powers of Copying any ability. He has copied Quinn's Blood and Shadow abilities. He has also copied a version of Ray. He was later defeated and killed by Quinn because he has partially improved during the fight and has used Celestial energy.

He was later revived by Bliss. He was asked by her that if they continued to fight who would have won. He stated that Quinn has partially improved during the fight and that he would have liked to continue fighting Quinn. He explains that he has lost because it seems that Quinn does not fully understand his new powers for him to copy it. It seems that Russ ability is to copy the exact attack the person who uses the attack and it looks like that the one who used the attack needs to fully understand that attack for him to copy. Bliss then explains that Quinn has always been a strong person and has reached the top with his own ability. Russ stated that it would be pointless to continue the fight anymore and he says that powers are running out and it looks like he has not much energy left. Russ asks is this why Bliss has told him to marry Jessica. Bliss says that she sees many future and she states that she was the who gave Russ his power and not anyone else. She then states that she does not know what he will do in the future. Either he will slay gods or not, she states that this does not matter to her.

Later It is seen that he was alive but is on the run. he wasn’t living the spectacular life he used to in his faction days. Using a robe to cover his face; he had managed to live by joining factions and hunting beasts. It is clear that after Russ has lost the person that powers his MC cells his ability takes up far too many MC points if he was to go against someone strong, leaving him with an ability that is mid tier at beast. He was later visited by Bliss and he questions her why she is here to which Bliss replies that she is here to help him restore his powers. She then teaches him the method to absorb nest crystals in order to increase his MC cells and she had given him three Nest crystals in total, boosting him from the current way he was. That was all she could give, though, and claimed that the rest was up to Russ, but also gave him details of how to get Nest Crystals. With this there was a goal in Russ mind once more, and he began to work as a traveller. He rose through the ranks, joining larger and bigger groups discovering Nest crystals on the way. There were times where there was also news of other groups discovering Nest crystals. When this happens, a mysterious robe figure would visit them, and their group would be no more as a nest Crystal was taken. Most people had no clue what to do with them and it felt like to Russ this was a cheat that only he had, something that he could take advantage of. In the first place there weren’t many that could even get to a nest crystal with their power they would need an entire army but for Russ it was the easiest thing in the world. Eventually though, his betrayal and antics had caused Russ to go to a quieter planet, to go into hiding and travel from there, which had brought him to the planet Venus. A planet that was covered in meadows and had plentiful small little villages.

It was one of the few planets that had next to no beasts on it. There were the occasional beast that would escape from time to time, or be brought back, but other than that it was a peaceful place, relative to the people that lived there. For a while Russ had decided to lay low. What he had found was rather than doing all of the work himself, it was easier to let the higher factions get an inkling to a nest Crystal, or discover one and take it from them. Following the news forums, he could see when they were recruiting a large team, and it was always for the same people, and for the same pattern. He is later visited by the Celestial Weet to fight as the God Slayers from earth were targeted by Celestials and he was one of these God Slayers.
