Infernius

Fractures Series
Storyline by Rainimator and the Production Team

―Kane

* Main
* Other

**Infernius**, the **Blazing Doom**, was the undead pyromancer who destroyed the Coven. He first appeared in "Wither Heart", where Stella sent him to the Nether. He became a  Nether Horde commander. In "Ender Wish", Infernius was defeated and thrown into the Void by Ceris — but not before he weakened her enough that Naeus could kill her.

## Design

Infernius was a massive skeleton whose only real defining feature was his black sclera and red iris, just like the Undead raised by Herobrine.

Infernius' human design is unknown.

## Story

“*An undead pyromancer who destroyed the Coven. Not much else is known about this mysterious entity's backstory. - Rainimator Lorebook*

### History

Sometime before the events of Wither Heart, Infernius wiped out the entire Coven, spare for Stella who was living as a wanderer at the time.

#### *Poison*

In Poison, Infernius was briefly mentioned by Kane as "some burning skeleton". As Abigail leaves to the Nether realm, having warned Kane of a "coven witch" who would become a "feral demon" and wield incredible, but dangerous, power, Kane begins muttering to himself angrily. As he speaks, he describes the Coven's destruction, killed by Infernius.

### Fractures

#### *Wither Heart*

He made his in-series debut in Wither Heart, when Stella and Rain had come to find the Wither Book in order to purge Rain's Wither Heart Curse. Infernius' presence was alerted to Stella through her magic, to which he had challenged her to a battle. His pyromancy and sheer durability and strength proved a challenge for the Enchantress, who was unable to kill or down him despite using nearly every spell in her arsenal (excluding Arcane Lightning). In desperation, the Enchantress used a Portal Creation Spell against him, sending the damaged Infernius to the Nether.

Somewhere between the two episodes, he was found damaged by the Nether Horde, who helped him recover and recruited him as the Ghast Commander.

#### *Ender Wish*

He made his final appearance in Ender Wish, where he was shown to now command the Ghasts of the Nether Horde. Leading them through the Nether-End Gateway, Infernius helped lay seige to New Dragonspire. As Ceris rushed to help the Dragonseer, Infernius intercepted her and unleashes a barrage of physical and fire attacks that weakened the matriarch. In retaliation, Ceris utilized the Ender Greatsword, Ender Armblades and her own physical capabilities in conjunction to her teleportation in order to weaken and defeat Infernius. Her final attack sent him plummeting into the Void, where he died. However, he succeeded in thoroughly weakening Ceris for Naeus. In fact, Rainimator himself stated Ceris would have beaten the Nether King if not for Infernius.

## Skills

"Can control fire and has a wide variety of pyromancy spells. He can also fly around and charge at incredible speeds." - Rainimator Lorebook

Infernius is shown to be a Pyromancer, capable of encasing his fists in hot flames to use against his enemies as well as propel himself through the air. He displays immense strength that allows him to literally throw his opponents far away at high speeds, with his towering size boosting this strength. Infernius also shows a very high degree of durability, surviving numerous direct hits from skilled opponents such as Stella and Ceris. He is also capable of levitation, which he uses in conjunction with his Pyromancy.

## Trivia

* His name was decided by a poll by Rainimator on the official discord, alike to Hogsworth and Kralos.
* Infernius in latin is "hell".
* Infernius was the first of Naeus' generals to die, as well as the last to debut in series, debuting in Wither Heart instead of Hard Pill to Swallow.
* Infernius was bested by Stella and Ceris, both females and members of the Ender Watchers.
	+ This also means he has never won a fight on screen.
* Infernius is confirmed to be one of Rainimator's least favourite characters due to the tediousness in animating and rendering his flame animations.
