Veiled

**Veiled** is a character in *Turtle Man and DaPhantom*, a mysterious and shadowy assassin as well as one of the Sentinels. He is very loyal towards The Devourer and has tried to kill Turtle Man, DaPhantom and Officer M numerous times, though he has rarely showed empathy towards the trio.

## Appearance

What creature Veiled is supposed to be or resemble remains a complete mystery, but in appearance he does remember a humanoid with a torso, legs, arms and head. Though his head and body are cloaked within a dark purple outfit that is covered with tears and strange symbols, Veiled’s actual form appears to be black but engulfed in a light pink aura. This physical form of his can be noted through the many tentacles which protrude out of him and come in differing sizes and shapes, which he can use for combat or mobility. In terms of outfit, he wears larger dark purple boots with a glowing mural on each boot, a rugged plum scarf with a similar-looking mural and a tattered purple cape covered in his dark glowing matter. Also, he wears a belt and dark-magenta gloves with glowing tips, as well as having a blue and pink symbol similar to the one on the Devourer’s head on his rugged cloak.

## Background

No one knows the true identity of Veiled, from what he is supposed to be to where he comes from, though it has been frequently theorised that he is from a dimension beyond our own. Any person who has ever seen his real form has either never been seen again, or has been too traumatised by it to ever be willing to speak of it in any form at all.

When the Devourer was looking for new forces to join his sentinels after one of the previous members, the Pumpkin Punk, had departed, Veiled came in to offer his services for the Devourer in exchange for sufficient rewards in return. The Devourer agreed to this for he had favoured Veiled’ methods of work, such as his silent and deadly assassin jobs, so agreed to give him whatever resources he desired in exchange for his role as an assassin on his group of sentinels. Several years later the Devourer and his sentinels had first met Turtle Man, DaPhantom and Officer M, who had began to foil his many plans to take over The City of Nexus. Along with the Devourer himself, Veiled grew a hatred for the heroes and helped in his plans to try and defeat them such as intercepting Gerald’s plane when they were heading to Yoshi Resort in order to try and kill them with the help of the Riftspace, but this failed. Though in Turtle Man and DaPhantom: Guardians of Nexus, he did help to defeat the Pumpkin Punk who was causing havoc and destroying the city. Veiled had later caught Panda Flu whilst on one of his assassination missions which involved him venturing into a bamboo forest, and so he had spread it to his master as well as the other Sentinels which forced them to stay in quarantine for a bit. As a result, the Devourer was unable to exact any of his evil plans for a while and he blamed it on Veiled, even deciding to catch some germs from him in a jar so that he could use them as a weapon if needed.

## Personality and Relationships

Veiled is a mysterious and foreboding being, who is very cryptic about everything he does and engages in. He is not one to be open about his emotions or anything that he’s up to, and also rarely likes to make longterm associations or friendships with anybody at all; he enjoys most to work alone. He gets angry and provoked pretty easily by things, finding positive emotions or joy within others to be rather irritating.

The only two people that Veiled seems to have formed some sort of positive association with are his master, the Devourer, and fellow sentinel Storm. In Guardians of Nexus, he even shows a bit of a softer side towards Storm Weaver and admits to him that he’s become more sad since he left and begs for him to come back, which he begrudgingly agrees to do. Veiled is also shown to have grown a hatred for Turtle Man, DaPhantom and Officer M. as he has tried to kill them several times, even by himself without the Devourer’s command, or has just been stalking them to try track information as to what they’re doing. Though there was just one occasion where he helped them - When Officer M. got lost in the forest next to Sparkville, he called for the Devourer’s help but Veiled came and helped him return to the town.

## Abilities

Veiled is able to teleport quickly (yet only brief distances) and is also agile in combat, which makes him a rather formidable and tough opponent to even catch with attacks. He is capable of conjuring cosmic fireballs and releases them through lanterns that will follow his enemies for several seconds. On top of that, Veiled also wields some dangerous weapons that he uses in close quarters combat - his signature weapon is a broadsword which can perform shadow slices that seriously injure his enemies but he also has a battle staff which releases it’s own fireballs on hit with anything.

Veiled is also said to have the ability to take on the physical form of any entity he so desires, basically like a form of shapeshifting. He rarely feels the need to use this power, but when he does it is very convincing as he is able to take on the desired person’s voice, scent and even abilities.
