Orias

Keeper of the Gates

Orais, or the "Protector of Nebula" was the youngest demon, and played a major role in Comakaths Era. Deeply adored by his older sister Eramis, Orias was killed entering hell by "Urshan the gatekeeper" by being lit up in flames and burnt alive. However, Orias is still alive as a ghost and keeper of the gates. Being the youngest Demon, Orias is physically much weaker than his siblings. Magically he is superior, his abilities to manipulate solar energy, gives him a massive advantage.

## History

#### First Appearance

Orias's first appearance was three months after the new altered timeline solidified, and became the new timeline. (Which completely erased the original) Orias was originally sent to retrieve Astra Longbow by his Father, Phenix. Upon his arrival, He was met by Cardinal Verde, who spoke with Orias to try to save Astra's life by taking her place instead. Orias responded and said, "You're useless to me. I don't need some mortal who has devoted themselves to a fake religion."(Rus 14) Enraged Verde tried to fight Orias, resulting Orias to fight back and threw him into a stone wall knocking him out.

Orias continued to search for Astra, however once Astra found her lover Verde knock out on the ground, Astra warned her Acolytes and told them to fight Orias. Astra not realizing Orias was a demon, she led the massacre of her temple. After Orias slaughtered them, Astra met him. Astra pleaded to him, asking him to spare the life of her friends, Orias didn't listen, he continued to say that his Father would kill him if he came back empty handed. Astra enraged, blasted him into a wall with her staff, unfazed Orias got up and pull out his daggers, and claimed that no mortal could survive his power.

#### Fighting Astra

As their battle began, Astra used her staff to continuously block his attacks, however Orias's strength overcame her. As Orias planned to bring her Phenix's realm, he walked up to her and said "I'm sorry Astra I really am. However my life is more important than yours, and I am immortal."(Rus 19) Astra then got back up and continued to fight, blasting him with her herbal magic. Orias finally gained the upper hand and took her staff from her, he examined the Runes and concluded that they were very similar to the one's engraved on Corous's power sword. Orias threw the staff, and walked to over to her, in which Astra blasted him with a new form of magic she had never seen before, she blasted him with purple energy, (which was her unlocking her celestial powers). In response Orias decided to show her his true form, Orias stood still and held his arms out, as his body started to glow a bright white, blinding Astra, a large blast of solar energy shot out of his chest and blasted her across her temple into a nearby hallway, knocking her down, Orias concluded that he had killed her.

### Returning to his father

After Orias had "killed" Astra, he returned to his Fathers realm, in which his father told him to return with his sister Asura, to take her body back to him. Orias obeyed and went back to the overworld with his sister.

### Fighting Verde and Pelous

Once he traveled back to Astra's temple, Asura and Orias traveled back to his previous's fighting spot, when they arrived Astra's body was gone. Asura became annoyed with her younger brother, "I thought you said you killed her?" in which Orias responded back with "I did, no mortal can survive my true form, unless she isn't mortal?" After they concluded that Astra wasn't mortal they split up to find her.

Astra was limping throughout the tunnels beneath her temple, she resurrected her fallen sisters and told them to be on the look out, and fight to the death incase Orias returned. Orias had found Astra's blood and followed it until Verde stopped him.

"You're not going to find her." Verde said, holding his ground he acted strong. He was terrified, Orias was this powerful creature who had defeated him once before. He hid his fears, he clenched his fists, preparing to fight, "If I have to kill you I will."

"You can't kill me" Orias said, "I've been around a long time Verde, and I'm immortal" Orias drew his daggers, and lunged at Verde. As their attacks clashed, Orias fought back valiantly, he kicked Verde in the chest knocking him to the ground. Verde's arms dripped blood on the ground. Verde had also unlocked similar powers to Astra, however his were much weaker. Orias threw one of his daggers at Verde who magically stopped it in the air, and held it there, however it was slowly getting closer and closer. Orias then said "Magic doesn't work on those, you can't hold it forever". Verde soon let go and ducked, the daggers landed inside the stone wall behind him. Because Orias couldn't kill Verde through his physical strength, Orias showed Verde his true form and blasted him, killing him.

## Appearance

When Orias was alive, he had a very athletic body, blonde hair, and blue eyes. However when he died, Eramis in attempts to bring him back created him as a ghost. He was notably spotted as a flying ghost with a crumbling cape, his elaborate headgear, and bone like limbs.

## Powers and Abilities

#### Former Powers

* **Demon Physiology**: As a demon Orais was very powerful, both physically and mentally. Orias was one of the youngest demons means he isn't as physically more powerful as his siblings. He will always have the advantage in combat with a mortal, but when compared to his siblings physically he isn't as strong. Orias is unique in the fact his powers come directly from solar energy, the more sunlight Orais has be in, the more powerful he becomes. Therefore Orias does not need to go into Phenix's realm to heal his wounds
	+ **Heliokinesis**: Orias has the ability to manipulate solar energy and use it to his will. He has sent a blast of solar energy at Nebula, Sterling, and Asura many times. He uses this as a form of defense and offense. Orias can make is body the same brightness as the sun, this is often called his 'True Form'. He can also use blasts of solar energy to burn his enemies, this can include bursts of solar energy, solar bombs etc. Orias's cells had the ability to absorb sunlight to grant him powers, however too much solar energy can also be harmful, over-using his powers is so harmful that Orias's cells start to deteriorate, if this happens, Orias must enter Phenix's realm to heal. Orias was able to show his true form to halt Comakath from attacking his siblings, this however didn't hold him or long, it allowed Orias and the other Demons time to escape.
