Willing to kill anyone who gets in his way, he also is clever and manipulative. Having manipulated entire countries and even realms into serving him. The Forsaken wishes to see people suffer physically and in pain, as he is the mastermind behind Taco Bell's diarrhea inducing tacos and burritos. He also has opprobrious and vulgar traits. Willing to verbally insult those who work for him in the United Realms, he is also highly unapologetic about what he does. The Forsaken is aware of his nature, and how evil he is. So he embraces it, The Forsaken also has a dark sense of humor. Making jokes on turning Vanny into rabbit food and serving it to The Guest on a plate.

The Forsaken is also narcissistic and vicious, not caring for anyone except himself. He is also highly prideful, assertive and will pragmatically assert himself as the head of any operation, regardless if he runs it or not. He is also a fiery and fearsome man, as even his cultists fear provoking the wrath of the Forsaken. The Forsaken is also wrathful, believing his sacrifice as human was for nothing. The only beings he can even tolerate is his army, he also has no hesitation killing random entities for fun, He also is calculating and cold-blooded. Controlling the Dark Aether and it's denizens with a iron fist, The Forsaken also often boasts about his plan to consume the Omniverse.

The Forsaken was not against sacrificing his own soldiers. Using some as souls for his experiments after the soulless Ink Demon was a failure.

Despite his evil and cruel nature, The Forsaken is not heartless. As he absolutely refuses to take victims to Jacksonville, Florida.

## Early History

Kazimir Zykov's birth date is unknown, as no one but the most strongest beings in the Omniverse knew but he grew up in the small village of Burata, located in the Pskov Oblast in Soviet Russia. Most of his life is unknown, but it is said or at least implied that he had limited education in school, and was possibly religious. Later on in the early 20th century, he married his wife Raisa and they both survived the Great Russian Famine of 1922 and the 1929 plague that struck Russia, the two managed to also survive the mass purges ordered by Joseph Stalin during the 1930s. Eventually, Kazimir and Raisa had a daughter. Anya, who was born sometime before the second World War.

## World War 2 and Endstation

Zykov during World War 2, which most called it "the war to end all wars" joined the Soviets' 1st Guards Tank Army, a group in the Red Army, he became a tank mechanic and a sergeant in the military. It was hard to get parts from Moscow each day that the Red Army advanced on the Reich, so what Zykov did to keep the Russians' tanks running was take and scavenge parts of the German Tigers and Panzers tanks that the Soviets destroyed, and he modified them to be fit for the T-34s. later on in early 1945, after the discovery of the first Dark Aether breach in the Nazi Projekt Endstation facility. Colonel Pavel Lazarev of the Soviet Secret Police, the NKVD tasked Sergeant Zykov to shut down the particle accelerator in the facility because of the latter's knowledge of German technology. Zykov knew the mission was a suicide one, but for his family and the world. In hopes so world peace could happen, accepted it. He was granted the medal of Hero of the Soviet Union by Lazarev who then as Zykov entered the facility, ordered the doors to be welded behind him. During this, he recorded a message to his wife and wrote 2 letters to her. The doors being welded and sealed ultimately would leave him trapped, Zykov despite having a few bullets left from killing the zombies managed to close the portal from the inside. But he became tethered and unable to leave the Dark Aether, being stuck in possibly the darkest realm of the Omniverse. Colonel Lazarev however would be unaware that welding the doors and making Zykov shut down the cyclotron would have nefarious consequences.

## Transformation into the Forsaken

Zykov upon arriving into the Dark Aether had feelings of despair. But he resolved and became determined to survive, he began to consume powerful creatures living in the Dark Aether. Eventually, over 40 years of corruption or in the Dark Aether, 4 centuries. Zykov transformed into a malignant and monstrous giant Elder God. In his new stage of life or "evolution", Zykov renamed himself as "The Forsaken", in reference to his abandonment by Colonel Lazarev. he proceeded to devour creatures in the Dark Aether. But as his power grew, so too did his ambition. The Forsaken by himself shifted the power structure and hierarchy of the dimension from the factions of the Old Ones, Which ruled the Dark Aether and fought for centuries to a unified force under his will and he proceeded to rule the Dark Aether with a iron fist. The Forsaken would consume many of the Old Ones and Elder Gods. Taking their abilities and dark energy, the surviving Elder Gods and Old Ones pledged loyalty to him, The Forsaken was the ruler of the Dark Aether, and the Supreme God and he also proceeded to enslave the Disciples of a entity named Zealot Sparagmos. He would soon afterwards be worshipped as a Elder God, and his reign was unquestioned as his followers were loyal. Worse was that the lost human souls trapped in the Dark Aether who lost hope in humanity became zealous, loyal cultists and followers to the Forsaken, these cultists would threateningly ask others to join them and those who were too weak and unable to fight them were dragged off to the Forsaken as a sacrifice. Among the many forces added to the Forsaken's army was the forces of German Task Force: Baldr, who were sent to the Dark Aether as a contingency plan for the Reich. But now were being used for the Forsaken's agenda.

However, Baldr became corrupted and transformed into numerous creatures within the Dark Aether. The Forsaken formed Outbreak Zones in the Omniverse, and a super breach in the Ural Mountains, Russia.

## Twisting The Minds Of Mortals

The Forsaken would appear to weak-minded individuals, in the form of relatives. Manipulating them to do his bidding, he manipulated these people into killing people and becoming psychopaths. However this was not his only action, the Forsaken also began having worshippers and followers on Earth, having manipulated these individuals into worshipping him. Claiming to be an aspect of God himself. These crazed individuals would begin mass murders and riots, all in the name of The Forsaken. The Forsaken enjoyed the chaos, however he needed a way into the Omniverse. So he attempted to have his followers open portals, however these portals were not stable enough for a powerful entity like The Forsaken to enter through. They were however enough for The Forsaken's army to cross through, finally impressed at some progress. The Forsaken began Stage 2 of his plan to enter Earth.

To manipulate those who would listen, The Forsaken also used his old identity as Zykov and began broadcasting a journal of survival, of his time spent in the Dark Aether, however it is unknown if this journal was entirely feigned or if any of it was authentic. This is because the days "Zykov" documented in the journal were not Earth Days, rather they were the days of how time worked in the Dark Aether.

## Creation of The Ink Demon

The Forsaken eventually had the corrupted and manipulated Task Force: Baldr work on a secret project with the help of the United Realms. The project was secretive to only the Ambassador of the Dark Aether, Derpy. Who was told a false cover story that it was the construction of a biological mechanical artificial life form, but in reality. The Forsaken had ulterior motives, the project was in reality a secret science experiment made to clone Derpy, in the event he defected from the Forsaken's army or had died, the project was The Forsaken's "insurance policy". And it had a ton of personnel assigned to it, making Derpy suspicious. However when he almost found out. The Forsaken brutally beat him to a bloody pulp, and altered his memories. The clone Derpy however was not the perfect clone that the Devourer of Worlds expected, instead this creation was a corrupted, deformed and seemingly harmless version of Derpy who looked nothing like his template. This clone was not the killing machine and deadly beast that The Forsaken wanted, disappointed and heavily annoyed with the failure of the experiment. The Forsaken ordered the United Realms to lock up the clone Derpy, locking him in a maximum security containment chamber. This clone would eventually become the homicidal and destructive entity known as the Ink Demon.
