## Powers and Abilities

**Animal Companionship:** Vassago can form a sacred and powerful union between Vassago and animal companions, and they both tend to protect and care for one another and assist each other in multiple situations. Vassago can also share an empowering friendship so that they draw strength from and granting them the power to achieve anything and overcome potential obstacle in their way. The bond they have with their animals is purely sacred because of the pure love they have for one another and use it to synchronize each other and gain a variety of powers they use for themselves.

**Animal Imitation:** Vassago can use/imitate animal powers, they can run like an ostrich, swing like a monkey, sprint like a cheetah, move like a cat, take the strength of an ant, track like a dog, hide like a turtle, constrict like a snake, etc. They cannot transform into animals, as this power only enables Vassago to mimic animalistic traits while still in their original form. Vassago can mimic multiple animals at once.

**Army Manipulation:** Vassago can create, call or otherwise gain control/access to/over an army and control it unchallenged.

**Authority:** Vassago has the power of authority; a power that grants them the right to rule, enforce orders, and establish laws within their dominion, even extending to the supernatural realm. This authority bestows upon them total control over their designated domain including supernatural elements, such as mystical forces, living entities, mythical creatures, and otherworldly dimensions that shape their environment.

**Dark Power:** Vassago wields an extraordinary dark power; a primeval and essence of cosmic balance from which they derive a myriad of abilities rooted to the source of darkness. In all its power, this fundamental element is a wellspring of shadow, encompassing realms both mundane and esoteric natures, which inherently opposes all things light. Through their mastery of darkness, Vassago commands extraordinary capabilities associated with the obscurity of the unknown, channeling and harnessing these dark forces to their advantage.

**Demon Physiology:** Vassago possesses the traits, attributes, characteristics and/or abilities of demon, a malevolent spirit usually of Satanic divinity or associated with Hell. They achieve this either through full or partial transformation into demons, choosing to mimic certain aspects of demonic beings, or simply already being a demon in the first place. Most commonly Vassago retains their general form but with some additions; horns, claws, fangs, and tail are common, as are wings, more fit (muscular and/or larger) body and color change (red, blue or black dominate) but there are several kinds of demons who are far less humanoid, varying from strange, surreal or even absolutely horrific.

**Demonic Source:** Vassago has demonic powers, which can be obtained a number of different ways. Valefar may be a demonic being or have demonic ancestry, transform into a demon, channel or act as a vessel for a demon, have the power or soul of a demon, or mimic/steal powers from a demon.

**Esoteric Power:** Vassago possesses an internal and personal force of esoteric and supernatural nature that lies dormant within them as it ultimately acts as the core of their otherworldly powers that by its unique and esoteric nature, can endow supernatural abilities with only their skill, personal power-level, imagination/knowledge, and/or morality to define the borders.

**Hybrid Physiology:** Vassago possesses the genetic traits and abilities of two or more different species.
