**Immortal** is the a character of the Compass Project series, first appearing in Gregale**.** He is one of Wilheim's friends and helped him through his recovery process, however he is mute and only able to speak through sign language, though this does not stop him from being chatty.

## Appearance

Immortal is a Type-5 Avio with white gold feathers, and black primaries. His hair is long and black, tied in a ponytail, with dark red-black eyes and is very tall.

He is also missing both his arms, his legs, and his left wing. His arms and legs have been replaced by bionics already.

His wing bionics are coloured red and white initially, however, further development had them with some black and mirrored the look of his left wing with the added black.

#### **Synth Features**

From the concept art and profile picture of Immortal, he is missing his left wing. The remaining wing however is predominantly white with a soft golden iridescence to the feathers, where as the flight feathers are black. He has a long train of tail feathers that are very loose and soft, trailing on the floor.

## Personality

Although mute, Immortal is very talkative and has a sunny personality. He is jovial and sarcastic, smirking and smiling at most things, yet he is also very mature when it comes to more serious topics.

He is very empathetic and aware of when others are upset or angry. Because of his bionics, when he gets too angry he cannot sign to say what is wrong. When Immortal himself becomes angry, he finds it hard to move his hands to talk.

## History

**Pre-Gregale**

Before Gregale, Immortal was friends with Wilheim and helped him recover from his injuries at Mullardoch. With Immortal being mute and Wilheim at the time being deaf, the only way the two could communicate was through sign language.

#### **Gregale**

In Gregale, Immortal is introduced as being a friend of Wilheim Mira and part of the reason that the project has been started. As Wilheim's friend he is able to talk to Wilheim in a way that the others usually don't. He is happy with the adjustments being made and the development of his bionics, and grows quickly close with the Gregale Avios, particularly King and Griffin. However during a test flight Immortal is injured, which results in him being bed-ridden until his bionics are repaired although this takes a turn when Dr Aryan Kane takes Immortal and removes his last wing, using him as a display piece at the Delta technology Gala.

## Abilities

#### **Sign Language**

Immortal has a very good knowledge of sign language, and can communicate easily.

#### **Languages**

Immortal shows that he understands French.

## Relationships

* Griffin

Immortal speaks very openly and plainly with Griffin, helping her like a brother by getting her to talk when she's stressed or anxious, and teasing her by pulling on her hair when they're together. In return Griffin also pulls on his hair back and tries to make sure that he is included.

* King

Immortal is flirtatious with King but knows when to be serious and refuses to let King treat him differently. He does not stand for King being over protective and has the confidence to tell him and Wilheim when they need to back off.
