Ludwig von Aelfried XI

### Alias (if alter ego exists)

King Asmodeus, Lord of the Ninth, Sin of Lust, King of Demons, King of the Earthly Spirits

## Physical Information

### Primordial Demon

The first mention of Asmodeus' existence is during the time of King Solomon of Israel, 2,900 years ago. However, he has existed before then for an unknown amount of time thus being N/A by technicality. Although that is simply the demon that holds power within this body, the body itself is 19 years and nearly 8 months of age.
Being a demon king, Asmodeus is a demon of great power and could even be considered what is called an "Archdemon," this is a being of great infernal power and evil, drawn by death, dark energy, evil intent, and vengeance in itself. This species is among the greats of Hell, however, of course, Asmodeus does not simply take possession of a singular body. Ludwig von Aelfried XIV is simply one of the more major players of the hosts, as such, he has grand powers available to him--but it is never the full power of Asmodeus himself unless Ludwig was to prove worthy. In other words, every possessed being of King Asmodeus is just a part of the archdemon, not the archdemon itself.

# About

## Personality

When he is Ludwig, he is a young man with an outward appearance as one who is doing his job for his nation to the best of his abilities. What he shows off outwardly is entirely false, being just a way for him to rise in the ranks of the military ranks, he has no humanity left within himself, only doing his actions for his own benefit. If it doesn’t give him any benefit, he will not interfere.

When Asmodeus takes control, he is an embodiment of evil and vengeance, lust and the infernal. He doesn’t act upon it though, he instead attempts to make others his puppets through manipulation and the control of information, he enjoys messing with the humans of the world--his arrogance over the humans is incredible as well.

## Backstory

Asmodeus has possessed Ludwig since the beginning of his birth, taking advantage of his wealth and origin. The Aelfried family has been a wealthy family descending from the Teutonic Order with a majority of its history being apart of the higher leadership of the Order. He is, of course, the 11th heir of the Aelfried family and would be the next to rise in power--during the time of WW1, he was in the military of Germany being an officer until the end of the war itself. He fought with bravery and remarkable leadership on the front lines, gaining multiple medals of honour. Eventually, even with all of his efforts and utilizing the abilities of Asmodeus, Germany had lost the war. His war achievements and family power, though, allowed him to still be one of the few staying in high wealth. Since the Treaty of Versailles was signed, though, Germany was forced to unemploy most of the military and Ludwig came down without a job any longer.

## Equipment/Resources

A Gewehr 98 (Bullets deal 4kN, bullets fly at 100 m/s and it takes 2 turns to reload a clip of 5) and a regular 120cm black german-longsword with a golden guard and pommel (follows regular one-handed sword rules).

## Ability

### (Cosmetic Ability) Demonic Shift

1/7
During the period in which Ludwig is using the abilities granted by Asmodeus, his eyes begin to glow a crimson red and the form of Asmodeus takes shape in a more humanoid form. This being, one horn of a ram growing on the left side and a horn of a bull on the right side of the head with the tail of a serpent and he grows the infernal scaled wings of the dragon that Asmodeus rides, allowing him a slow capability of flight. When Asmodeus takes control of the host body, Asmodeus can change the form of the body into any shape of male or female beauty so long it is attractable as part of the Sin of Lust domain—essentially gender swap and body shift but only for handsome/hot forms. In combat, if Asmodeus is in control, then a pinkish-red aura surrounds the body.

### (Defensive Ability) Archdemon’s Armour

Around the user forms a crimson red plate armour that forms around the horns and wings too. The helmet is a split-visor close helmet, allowing for him to raise the visor at any moment--although that portion is cosmetic and the visor when down does not impair his vision any. Atop the helmet, when this armour forms, is a golden crown with a crimson jewel at the centre. This armour has a durability of 20kN that slowly recharges after not being hit for 5 turns in the same spot, and of course, as it is armour, it comes after the normal durabilities.

### Weapon of the Ninth

A weapon that can take the form of either a Halberd or a Straight-Crossguard Longsword which is carried by Asmodeus, while regularly it is represented as a lance--Ludwig had instead chosen to use a form of it which is that of a halberd, a weapon of more use. The weapon only has a fraction of the original power used in Hell, with an additional striking force of 10kN no matter which portion is used to hit with and no matter the hand used to hit with--although a halberd is a polearm so most of the time it would be a two-handed wielding, but due to the user’s strength it can be used with a single hand. The user can strike in any way once per 2 turns and launch a force of crimson energy in either an arc or a beam depending if it was a slash or a thrust--it moves at a speed of 60m/s and with a force of 4kN (throwing rules). Additionally, so long the weapon itself is within 30 meters of the user, it can be teleported back into either of the user’s hands--the durability of it being 20kN and the time it takes to reform being 3 turns.

### Hellflame Spears

The user can form a spear of hell-flames that is both a solid and energy formation in a 20-meter radius so long it is seeable by him. At the position in which it begins to form, the golden sigil of Asmodeus sits at the position with the spear launching from its centre. He can launch up to 4 spears until it goes down onto a 3 turn cooldown, each at a speed of 30m/s and dealing 5kN damage, being a length of 2 meters. The spears can sit at the positions they form until the user wishes to launch them, not counting for a cooldown until they are actually launched--but at any time there can only be just 4 spears.

### Accel

The user can amplify his reaction time and his movement/attack speed by a significant amount being his reaction time to 0.2 seconds for the moment Accel is active and his movement/attack speed being doubled for just a single stream of attacks in a turn, allowing for the user to make a swift movement of attacks. His attack damage is halved during this period, but it can also be used for defensive capability against ranged attacks as well. If what is launching it him are ranged attacks, then he can instead trade the attack-capability of it for slashing down all of the ranged attacks in front of him--being defensive. For defensive capability in melee combat, it would be trading the stream of attacks he is capable of doing for a stream of parries/blocks instead. This has a cooldown time of 4 turns.

## Pact or Catalyst

In return for the capabilities of using the powers of Asmodeus, he took multiples things from him--his Time, ceasing his growth of life and body. His Obedience, making Ludwig follow the commands of Asmodeus even if he disagrees upon the action. His Humanity, ceasing the body from being considered what is that of a human's and taking his thoughts of ethics, morality, empathy, and kindness. His Connections, devouring the souls of those Ludwig most loved and cared for. Finally, it would be Ludwig's Control, capable of making Ludwig lose absolute control over his body at any point and allowing for Asmodeus to control it to his will.
