Somebody stop me, I can't stop creating characters!
Sophia and Yaldabaoth, Revenant Siblings
“Oh, wow, another Champion! That's awesome! You want a lollipop? I've got tons! Oh, uh, don't mind Yaldy, he's just a bit hungry!”
“I WILL SPILL A GALLON OF YOUR BLOOD FOR EVERY DROP OF HERS!”
“Yaldy, be nice! I'm sorry, big brothers, right? He'll be fine, as long as you don't try something stupid! So, how's your day been?
Sophia appears to be, for all intents and purposes, your average young woman that also happens to be an anthropomorphic rabbit. She always appears in clothes comfortable for wherever she is, (shorts and a t-shirt in hot weather, a pair of jeans and a hoodie for cold weather, etc) and often has a smile on her face, along with some manner of candy in her mouth, be it a lollipop, a candy cane, or simply a hard candy. Her hair and fur are a pure white, aside from a single brown patch over her eye. Her ears are reasonably long, as is to be expected, and matching the tallness of her ears is her height! She stands remarkably tall, and her build can only be described as “lanky”. Just about the only big part of her is her chest, almost to the point of looking odd compared to the rest of her!
And then you get to her brother, Yaldabaoth.
Yaldabaoth resembles nothing more than your stereotypical hollywood werewolf, all black fur and towering muscle, hunched over and raring for blood. His eyes seem constantly hungry, glaring at the world with a predator's cunning and rage. His teeth are as sharp as daggers, and his claws are roughly the size of a human man's pinky finger. Despite being completely naked, he has no visible genitals, though that's more because of the dense, bushy fur covering his crotch as opposed to not having any. It's there, you just have to do a bit of digging (and, depending on who you ask, digging is definitely worth it!). He is, somehow, Sophia's older brother, and he would do literally anything for her. Even die.
Which, of course, leads into our story...
Once upon a time, a little boy and a little girl lived on a big, scary planet. The little boy was named Yaldabaoth, and the little girl was named Sophia! This planet was covered in trees, to the point that the planet was one big forest! These two children lived with their mother and their father, and they were all happy. Father would go out and chop wood and hunt animals, and he would sell it to merchants who visited the planet!
Meanwhile, their mother was a powerful magician. She had power over life and death, and taught her ways to Sophia, as the magic she knew was passed down to every woman in the family! Yaldabaoth, meanwhile, went hunting and woodchopping with his father when he got older, and learned very important skills!
But one day, something went terribly wrong. A nearby planet was afraid of things they did not understand, and as they began to travel across the stars, they saw many things they did not understand.
One of those things they didn't understand was Sophia and Yaldabaoth's family! And this made them do terrible things, because sometimes, when people are scared, they do things they shouldn't do!
They burned down the forests of the planet, and they went to kill Sophia and Yaldabaoth and their parents! But their father fought back. He was doomed, but he didn't want to win. He wanted to buy his wife time!
And while their father repelled the attack, their mother gave Sophia and Yaldabaoth a final blessing. And as they were blessed, the soldiers of the nearby planet entered the house where they lived, and killed everyone inside before burning it down. And it was in this death that the true power of the blessing began, their mother's soul fading into pure energy and imbuing both of her children with some of her vast magical energy.
Years and years passed, and even though Sophie and Yaldabaoth were dead, their bodies continued to grow within the ruins of their home, becoming adults even though they should have decayed long ago.
And when they both grew older, Sophia becoming a young woman of 18 and her brother growing to be 22, they suddenly breathed again as the burns and bullet wounds disappeared from their bodies. They were alive once again!
And as they had lain dead, they had been given powers from their mother's blessings. Sophia had inherited her mother's control of magic, gaining the ability to bless others with healing and life, or curse them with death and decay.
Meanwhile, Yaldabaoth had been given the role of Sophia's protector. He had gained great strength and physical fortitude, to supernatural points! His skin could deflect all but the strongest of projectiles and weapons, his fur became thick and fireproof, and his claws and teeth could pierce all but the most resilient of materials. However, this blessing came with a great destabilizing of his already delicate temper, and he began to enter a great rage at even the slightest of problems! However, he has kept his mind, more or less, aside from the increased aggression.
Together, they left the planet and took revenge on those who had ended their lives so long ago. Living ghosts to the people of that planet, they ended the lives of soldier and citizen alike in their search for justice.
Upon the conclusion of their massacre, a being made itself known to them, calling itself “The Referee”. It offered them both a position as “Co-Champions” in a great tournament. Before they could even consider accepting or declining, it was gone.
Though Yaldabaoth was excited at the prospect of spilling blood and devouring flesh, Sophia, always the calming influence, insisted that they attempt to get to the bottom of things. And so, they travel the galaxy, seeking friendly Champions to, perhaps, figure out just what's going on.
Powers: Sophia and Yaldabaoth represent both ends of the “Mage Vs. Warrior” dichotomy. Sophia has inherited great power from her mother's blessing, while Yaldabaoth was given strength and fortitude beyond even the most durable of men.
Sophia mostly has powers over the concepts of Life and Death. Often, this manifests in simply healing or inflicting wounds, though she can occasionally get more creative, such as purifying things by killing bacteria or quickly growing plants.
However, she also has access to some traditional “mage” type spells. She can summon “Energy Blasts” of the four greek elements (Earth, Air, Fire, Water), along with giving herself and others the ability to fly.
She is also capable of allowing others to survive in the vacuum of space, which she combines with her flight spell to get her and Yaldabaoth from planet to planet in a timely fashion.
Yaldabaoth, meanwhile, is a sheer physical powerhouse. His mother's dying blessing has given him physical endurance and strength on par with some of the galaxy's strongest combatants! His claws and teeth can shred most materials into scraps, unless the materials are truly resilient. Likewise, he is remarkably durable, being capable of turning away all but the most powerful weapons and blows. He can move at great speeds as well, though he lacks any sort of ranged option for opponents that can consistently stay out of his reach. However, due to the nature of his Blessing, his instinctual urges have increased significantly. He tends not to back down from displays of dominance, and both his rage and libido have massively increased. He gets out his rage through battle, and usually gets out his libido through... well, there are a lot of surprisingly open men an women in the galaxy, to say the least.
As well, technically speaking, Yaldabaoth and Sophia are a form of Undead. A powerful Undead, a form that keeps their mind and grows as a human would, but Undead nonetheless. Those who can affect the undead, either through mind control or destroying them, will have an easy time with them both.
Progress In The Contest: They have made no moves to attack other Champions. However, of the few Champions that have assaulted them, Yaldabaoth has made short work of them. He's gained a taste for the meat of Champions, actually.
Where would they be?: Either found by the protagonist, or finding them. Either way, Sophia would attempt diplomacy until attacked, at which point Yaldabaoth would do his best to tear the opponent limb from limb.
Their Species: Technically, Sophia and Yaldabaoth are a cross-breed of two different species! Sophia's father was a “Lapinus”, a species of anthropomorphic rabbits that lived on a planet full of bunny people like him. However, when he grew older, he decided to travel the galaxy. Male and Female Lapini are rather difficult to tell apart besides their somewhat excessive sexual characteristics. Males tend to be particularly well-endowed, and females tend to have rather large chests. Otherwise, they're nearly indistinguishable. They tend towards either white or brown fur, or sometimes a combination of both. They have large ears which allow for a keen sense of hearing. Despite the animal they draw influence from, Lapini are consummate omnivores. They tend to experience severe wanderlust that wears out over time, along with a general urge to mate with as many other species as they possibly can as a way to spread their genes.
Likewise, Yaldabaoth's mother was a “Redfang”, a species of aliens that very closely resembled the stereotypical “Hollywood Werewolf” in form. The species as a whole was well known for their shamanistic magical practices, and their mother was one of the highest members of the society. As was the tradition, upon reaching adulthood, she set out into the galaxy to find a mate. Redfang males and females are literally indistinguishable. Females have no breasts to speak of, and the genitalia are completely covered by a thick patch of fur, and both sexes possess deep, growling voices. They tend to have pure white or red eyes, and a keen sense of smell.
The two met one another in a spaceport too generic to even be remembered, and quickly reached a rapport. A rapport that ended in a return to their father's ship and indecent acts fueled by inebriation.
Because neither of them were particularly lucky, this act impregnated their mother. The two of them, more than a little unhappy with this turn of events, quickly performed the Redfang equivalent of a shotgun wedding and found a quiet forest planet to live together on. Things were a little tense at first, but in the end, they grew to love one another. So, yknow, it all worked out after all!
Regardless, Yaldabaoth is a full-blooded Redfang, though as a male he lacks the magical potential his species normally has. Likewise, Sophia is a full Lapinus, though due to the nature of her mother she has access to the magical abilities common to Redfang females.
