Scale

Once little more than a wandering entity, this being has recently discovered his true nature and purpose. As the son of the creator entity known as the Chaotic God, he holds immense responsibility in a different universe, and immense power. Even with this new set of responsibilities, he still appears within CCU Rebirth on occasion.

## Appearance

Scale resembles a purple silhouette of a person, generally suspended on a cloud of mist that seems to glide across the ground, wearing a long, purple witch's hat with pink highlights. This mist is something that passively lurks around him, making him appear as though he were a sentient column of mist. This is misleading, as his body is solid. The most prominent features of his body are his bright pink eyes, which faintly glow, and markings on his body and face. These markings glow when he uses certain powers, contrasting with the rest of his body.

Scale has no limbs naturally attached to his body, though he can create some at will. His hands appear as floating claws, of a purple to pink gradient, while his legs resemble hollow steel leg armor with bird skull designs. When not summoned, these limbs exist someplace within the tangle of mist, appearing to rise from the ground itself when summoned.

Though he rarely does so, Scale is capable of shifting his appearance at will, manifesting these disguises from the mist of his body. He does have a preferred human form which he usually only takes around close friends and lovers. This form can be of either of his listed heights, with broader shoulders, light brown skin, pink hair, and purple eyes under pink-tinted shades. He still chooses to have his body and facial patterns appear on this form, similar to birthmarks, though these and his eyes are still capable of glowing. This form retains his hat, and will usually appear with clothes that show off the patterns on his torso.

## Background

### History

Though time is measured differently across universes, around 1,000,000 years ago in his home world's time, the creator god of the world had grown quite lonely. After his first pure creation turned against him, the loneliness brought upon by his billions of years of tyrannical rule. This led him to noticing a young woman tending a peach farm, with the two quickly falling in love. This relationship was forbidden, however, as the God had proven quite dangerous to those who provoke him. Ironically, the punishment for violating contact laws was execution. To avoid this fate, and leave the world in a better place, God called upon his power to erase the woman's name from existence, using it as the basis of a powerful sleeping curse, creating Scale and dying shortly afterward. Scale seems to know the name of his mother, but he does not speak it, fearful that uttering it even outside of his home universe will break that curse. All that he shared about her was that she had pink hair and brown eyes, inspiring his human form.

The death of Scale's father resulted in the creation of four other entities, who were the first to observe him. When discussing what to do with him, the entities decided to banish him from the world. They considered him too risky to raise, as he could become as tyrannical as his father. In an effort to seal him within the sun, the entities blasted him off of the world, though the blast was a couple of degrees off target. This resulted in Scale flying off into the distant cosmos, ending up in an area he called Paradox Space.

Everything known about Scale's history has come from his own account, thus leaving a million-year gap in his story yet to be filled. All he has shared is that he honed part of his divine toolkit during this absence, and he left that universe after its primary timeline branched suddenly and violently. From there, he found his way into Lucas's Diary, eventually making his way back to the world.
