Cress Vuris

**Origin: Amperial**

Cress and his bloodline was the main source of conflict that lead to the major events.

Cress and his bloodline are from a special Origin that has the ability to take other Origin's ability and pass the power down to their offspring. Cress's ancestors have been using this method to commit genocide on other races to claim their Origin power for themselves, conquering lands with their tyranny.

Cress was of no exception to this tradition and he grew up to be the same brutal tyrant as his predecessors were.

## **Abilities**

Trained from very young age, Cress excels at the art of combat with a diverse range of skills.

### Polearm Proficiency

Cress' twisted mentality boosts his combat skills. He fights in reckless ways, often attacking with exaggeratedly powerful and heavy blows, yet rarely losing stability or getting interrupted easily. His attacks unleash residual blasts of energy.

At later age, Cress switched from using spears to a special-crafted scythe, which have great compatibility with his Origin power.

With the Scythe, Cress can hurl it away as a deadly ranged attack and call it back like a boomerang.

### Martial Art

Cress has great hand-to-hand skills to enhance his dueling capability, focusing in punches and grabs. He can throw serious blows at close ranges or when his main weapon is away.

### Ice Origin

Cress uses his inherited Ice power to form solid and reinforced icicles, which can cause serious physical damage upon impact. His attack can range from huge icicles or a barrage of deadly shards.

Cress can activate his aura to turn an area around him into a freezing field with extreme temperature clouded by blizzard, which could be used to trap and stun opponents.

## **Storyline**

* **Year 180.**

Cress was born.

* **Year 190.**

Cress' ways of thinking have been twisted from a very young age by his father, where he got submerge in the fantasy of war and conquest.

His power hunger is insatiable and incurable.

* **Year 196.**

Cress' vile ambitions soon got suppressed as there was no strong Origins around to conquer.

* **Year 201.**

Cress' father died from an assassination, which he neither mourned nor showed any emotions about, as his mind was already borderline insane due to his father's influence. His sole remark was that his father died because of his weakness, his power has withered away and his time has come.

* **Year 202.**

Cress became the King of Dunoas. but his own political power got suppressed by his older relatives in other kingdoms. After all, Dunoas is still just a small country on the branches of the Vuris bloodline.

Cress' hatred for his blood relatives grew stronger and considered their luxurious lifestyle as lazy and cowardice.

* **Year 210.**

Tragedy struck as Cress' relatives along with their kingdoms got completely annihilated by a mysterious Origin, which was good news for him.

Cress took the remaining leaderless soldiers into his own rank. While sending out spies to investigate, he referred to this Origin as Voidfox, based on the information gathered. Voidfoxes were a race of vulpine warrior, capable of bending space by manipulating the "void" around them to mathematically distort space.

* **Year 212.**

Cress set his attention to an elite group of Voidfoxes who have showed up in many battles, known for their monstrous destructive capabilities. After many studies and analyzing their combat pattern, Cress found out that the Voidfox can't fight near each other.

Cress would have a fake unarmed territory set up near the Voidfox group path to draw their attention. He distributed the plan among his soldiers to spring the trap and wait until the time come.

* **Year 214.**

The Voidfox group got caught in the trap but it didn't work out quite well.... After weeks of no reports, Cress went to the battlefield himself to find only corpses.

Cress reevaluated the power of Voidfox and planned his next battle, while sending more spies to track down the hungrily-retreated Voidfox member. The spies are specially trained to follow space anomalies this time and they have a better time tracking the Voidfox's path and also undo any illusion spells they found along the way.

* **Year 218.**

While tracking down the Voidfox, Cress and his crew accidentally discovered the alley of the Sifter Origin, who have the ability to adapt to whatever environment they got thrown into. But their race lived peacefully for so long, Cress made quick work of them and captured the princess for future offspring.

* **Year 220.**

Cress' army and the Voidfoxes have a full-force battle after their location was revealed.

Cress personally enter the battle to face the strongest Voidfox warrior Akira. He was on the verge of defeat at the artful skills of his Voidfox foe but his army managed to catch Akira's sister, Mai, whom Akira had told to flee earlier but was caught on her way out.

She was then used as hostage against Akira.

Cress managed to finish off Akira and secured Mai.

* **Year 221.**

Cress forced the 2 captured females to bear his offspring and finish them off, just as his bloodline tradition, ending the existent of the 2 Origins, *or so he thought...*

The Sifter gave him a twin:

**Syrie Vuris**, a female who appears to have not inherited any power at all.

**Drak Vuris**, a male who bears great similarity to Cress, and appear to inherited all of his traits. along with the Sifter's regenerative ability.

**The Voidfox's baby**, however.. was reported dead and has been disposed of after birth. Cress paid no mind to the matter since he already had Drak as his perfect successor.

Cress then finished the 2 mothers, just like how his bloodline tradition goes.

* **Year 230.**

Other members of Cress' bloodline from far away lands came to learn of his successes, and so they grew jealous and conflicts ensued - the world was at war again.

Drak Vuris grew up emotionless, trained day-and-night since he was five, got flooded with lectures about war, tactics, and twisted philosophies. He slowly got turned into a cold ruling machine just like Cress.

Syrie got locked up in an isolated dungeon under a tower, receive not even the bare minimum amount of daylight, food, or education. As a Sifter, Syrie survived like a monster, scraping materials from the ground, pulling faint magical traces lingering in the air to consume - it was fated to be a sacrificial tool.

* **Year 239.**

Cress used Syrie as the sacrifice to summon an army of demon and contract them to his will.

Drak set off to begin his fighting days in the battlefield.

* **Year 244.**

Cress with the demonic forces have taken over the world, bending everyone to kneel before him. His first son Drak seems to have changed but Cress paid him no mind, as he was basking in the glory of his victory... for a single day.

* **January, 2, 244.**

Cress was found dead outside the dining hall, headless, amid the victory banquet.

Words of his death have shaken everyone, and the demons smiled silently among themselves.
