APPEARANCE,
Lucien normally wears his cowl and mask when in battle or among his brothers and sisters...aka, other monsters. The mask and other parts of his body emit a greenish glow, these are nodes for his dark energy. They aren't exactly weak points but it's mainly for effect. Plus if the power goes out, he'd be a walking flashlight or something. His armor is crafted from some monster's bones and the leather of that same monster's hide. Both of which are pretty durable and strong. The bone armor covers only the most important parts of his body. Those areas being his upper torso, mainly chest and the respective area on his back as well as his shoulders, his forearms and hands, his waist area, which also includes the lower part of his gut and crotch and finally, a pair of boots made of that bone adorn his legs from the knees and down. Under all that bone armor is a full body, skin tight jumpsuit of sorts made from that monster's hide. It covers from the neck to the toes and everything in between. The rest of the stuff Lucien wears is just for extra effect, such as the skirt-cape that covers the lower half of his body, this gives no extra protection or anything.
The cowl is more like a small hooded cape. Two straps are under his shoulder guards which hold the hooded cape up when the cowl is down. The cape portion reaches down to the lower back. All extra effects that is a part of Lucien's attire take on a shredded style. Not too bad but enough to strike fear into weaker beings. They'll think he had survived a massacre which makes him look deadly. Although, people should usually be scared of a glowing person walking down the street, that's the real killer right there. His gauntlets, which are also at a focal point for his energy, are sharpened along the sides and so each finger tip. Well, the armor is anyways. This allows for Lucien to do battle even without his staff.
Physically, Lucien is about average in height. Being around six feet, give or take an inch. He looks human when his hood is down and mask removed but that usually fools them, mortals and the monsters. Despite his actual age, he looks quite young, that also causes others to underestimate him, since being young means you totally don't have that much experience on them. His hair is a very light blue color, which isn't unnatural for creatures such as himself. The eyes are a mysterious bluish-green color, rather exotic. Being of average height with broad shoulders, he looks intimidating. Try staring him down in a dark alley while all sorts of noises are spewed from behind his mask. Could scare ya out of your pants.
WEAPONS,
underPOWERed POLE: Nothing special about this weapon. It appears to have been made from the exact creature that the rest of his stuff was crafted from. This staff is a good five feet long, fairly heavy and has a large knot at the top of it. It's an interesting weapon as it'll hurt if ya get thumped with it, especially on the head. It can also be used to prod someone or something from a safe distance, twirled to deflect mundane projectiles and even used as a walking stick. Ya know, when you're feeling lazy and all.
- Bone Blade: Okay, I lied about the staff not being special. It has one unique ability that requires the weapon to be within touching distance of Lucien. During some cheesy anime cut scene, the underPOWERed POLE transforms into the Bone Blade, a nasty piece of art but in the good way. It increases the damage Lucien can do with regular attacks. The blade itself seems to have been made from the spine of some animal, probably humanoid. Despite it's form, it is really strong and sharp. The blade portion is about four feet in length with the hilt being one foot in length. The handle can accommodate two hands but Lucien can wield it with one. In LS terms, deals moderate damage, one level, instead of half a level for a regular attack.
[Lasts five posts. ;; One use per thread.]
Wraithic Claws: As mentioned above in the appearance section, Lucien possesses a pair of bone gauntlets that are fairly sturdy as well as being razor sharp along the sides that cover the forearms and at the tips of the fingers. It's always a good idea to have a secondary weapon when the primary one gets lost or if he wants to slice-n-dice with these instead of the usual thumping with the staff.
ITEMS,
- Large Cloak: Just a cloak that he wears upon entering mortal civilization. It conceals him from head to the ground, so no one knows what he is. A thick layer of leather was added in between the wool and linen to hide the faint glowing his Energy Nodes give off.
- How to Read for Dummies: Name explains it all. Not his fault he grew up as a monster, being chased out by the general mortal populace.
- - - -: Empty Space
ABILITIES,
Dark Entity
- Black Burn: Upon activation, Lucien's attacks deal additional magic damage. It is noted that when it is in effect, a black aura surrounds his current weapon. It's more of a black glow but who really cares about insignificant details? In LS terms, all his attacks deal an extra one level of magic damage. If used in tandem with Black Hammer, this buff ends after that tech is used.
[Lasts for three posts. ;; Four post cool down.]
- Black Hammer: Upon focusing his power, Lucien's next attack will deal extra damage. The force within this mighty strike is enough to shatter through a tree or put a ten foot deep crater in the ground. An inky black aura engulfs the end of his staff or fist, signifying the gathering of energy. This attack isn't elemental, it's mostly condensed force that explodes on contact. In LS terms, this ability, by itself, deals heavy physical damage.
[Next hit. ;; Three post cool down.]
RACIAL ABILITIES,
Energy Overload
When not being used, his nodes emit a green glow. When Lucien deems someone or something a threat, greenish/black type of flame ignites at all of his energy nodes, as if they were furnaces and spewing fire. It doesn't go far but it's enough to seem threatening. It can also be channeled into his fists and whatever weapon he wields. When he attacks and makes contact with a living thing, he siphons life from that target. The life taken is half the damage that is dealt. The flame also produces light in the dark, even more so than the regular glow!
LS - Magic Zap: When in use, basic attacks done by Lucien have an extra half level of magic damage added to them. Passive
- Soul Touch: When magic damage is dealt through regular attacks, Lucien instantly regains half a level of life. Passive
HISTORY,
Lucien doesn't remember much during his early years. All he remembers is that he came into existance some fourty odd years ago. Being what he is, it appeared he was "created" through some magical means, thus already the size of an adult human male. Even though his body seems to have been fully matured, his mentality wasn't. The young monster wasn't entirely stupid but he wasn't the smartest kid on the block. He understood the basic of what he was, his main purpose and what it means to kill. It took a couple years for him to realize that mortals were afraid of what he was. So in order to live among mortals and all that jazz, he needed a disguise.
A cloak seemed to fit his needs but come nightfall, others noticed the eerie glow and kept their distance. This made learning difficult but it was better than nothing. Lucien soon left mortal civilization and roamed the lands, raiding caravans and dominating weaker monsters' territories. Soon, life became very enjoyable for him. One day, Lucien discovered he had vocal cords. This discovery came about when he was attacked by a horde of moblins. This momentarily stunned the moblins, himself too but not as long. This gave him the edge he needed and pushed to victory!
During one of his vists to civilization, he caught wind of a monster that was terrorizing a village. Setting off, The Wraithnut went to deal with this monster. Being one himself, he was able to reason with it, getting it to lower its guard, allowing for him to deal swift blows that ended its life. He left it there, to rot, since he had no need for it. Over the years, he trained himself in many different things. Mainly scaring the crap out of those mortals that came across his area. It wasn't much, just a small patch of land somewhere in Hyrule Field that was infested with monsters.
A man came to see him one day, to make a proposition. Stop what you're doing and go away before I kill you. What a cocky human but he was no pushover. The man was a formidable enemy but lost in the end. Taking the man's identity for himself, the monster adopted the name Lucien Kreed, since it was the man's name and all. Though he literally took the man's face. Ripping the skin off and applying it to his own face. Lucien's magic prevented the stolen skin from decaying, so it was perfect.
Sometime later, Lucien left his small area and went into hiding. He was growing, changing and needed a safe place to go through his metamorphosis. Years later, he emerged a knew man...er, monster. His power become something new and he went in search of new things. During this new journey, he found the remains of that monster he had killed some decade ago. Taking its bones and leftover hide, he went back into hiding to craft him some awesome stuff.
Time Skip
He's an awesome badass now that pwns noobs on his days off. Yea, it's just that easy. Others caught wind of his badassery and recruited him for some monstrous army...thing. We mean monstrous as monsters are in it, not that it's huge...or is it? So this ends Lucien's tale on how he came to be...or something like that.
EXTRAS,
He acts human.
FACE CLAIM,
I really don't know.

In all honesty, I'm gonna have to talk to Rwaht about a couple of things here, but 2 notes:
1, you're actually an ability short lol Monsters have 2 weak Racial Abilities that pertain to what Monster they are.
2, I'm gonna have to ask ya to rename your pole-arm and gauntlets lol I'll admit, its a chuckle, but we just don't want something blatant like that on the CS lol *Points to Big Brother Proboards, always watching*

All right, most of your abilities are fine. Just a couple of things.
Firstly, it's gonna be key for you to remember that any one attack can ever have its total damage raised by a maximum of 2 levels. So be careful not to dump all your buffs on one attack if it'll actually mind up raising it by more than it ... well, can.
However, it's the monster racial where things become a touch iffy, but there's an easy, quick fix.
Monsters get 2 weaker abilities, not quite as potent as normal magic slots. But as it happens your current ability can be made into two that are actually a bit more flexible than they are now!
using one slot: give an ability that tacks on an extra half-level of magic damage to regular attacks ONLY (this'll make it acceptable as a half-slot passive buff)
using another slot: whenever a regular attack deals magic damage, you gain a half level of life. This is the sort of ability that's potentially potent, but completely acceptable since its power is based on synergy with other abilities.
This'll basically mean that you get the effect you have now, and keep things the way they should be with monster racials.

Okay, I think I edited it correctly. Also, for the previous names of the two weapons, it was meant as a joke and I hoped someone would point them out. :P So, all things accounted for, I believe I'm ready for another review~
