Cicero

**Cicero** is a main antagonist in *The Demon's Light*. As the demigod son of Xeren, he leads the Nuyö-Dyavol Coalition, hoping to claim Euclid as his own with the assistance of his father's reincarnation.

## Appearance

Cicero wears a suit of sleek, dark armour with a bluish-silver insignia on the chest, displaying an eyeball flanked by two spread wings. On his chest are two clasps that he often attaches cloaks to, and his armour makes the shape of sinewy human muscle. Cicero's helmet is aerodynamic, with only a small slit in the visor for his eyes, alongside a metal design in the image of a laurel wreath. His boots have metal spurs, which he uses in a variety of ways to signal troops.

Cicero's skin is a light brown, with long white hair flowing down his shoulders. His oft-alert eyes are magenta, with a faint glow to them. His body is rather muscular and lean, and he is able to sprout a pair of black feathered wings from his back.

## Personality

Despite Cicero's high rank and immense power, one could describe him as just another soldier. He cares for his men and the morality of his actions, as well as claiming time and time again that he is nothing more than a subordinate to Xeren, simply waiting for his return. Cicero is an honorable fighter as well, refraining from deception or stealth.

## Background

Cicero was born during the war for control of Eden. After his father was killed by the Powers, he began plotting their downfall. Cicero created a portal between Euclid and Eden, entering it along with many demons still loyal to the deceased Xeren. The group was determined to acquire Xeren's soul, which would give Cicero godlike power.

The Covenant of the One God, a defunct religion based in Nuyö which worshiped Xeren alone and saw the other Powers as corrupt, was reinvigorated by the arrival of Cicero. He was declared their messiah, living proof of Xeren's miracles. Cicero merged the Covenant with the demon army that had followed him to Euclid. They became the progenitors of the eventual Nuyö-Dyavol Coalition.

Due to the great destruction wrought by demons, Gabriel Alchemilia opened his own portal to Eden. This allowed the arrival of the angels, who promptly ignored humanity's suffering to focus on combating the threat posed by Cicero's forces.

During the Second Great War, Cicero established the Nuyö-Dyavol Coalition. The Coalition connected him to numerous Nuyövian governments, gangs, and weapon manufacturers, including the Svatovid, Vilebluysk and Mesto. Through a land trade in Muné, Cicero was also able to make an alliance with the empress of Hala.
