Tearen Wover

[Tearen Wover]

Can be Referred to As:

Tearen, the Shadow, the Ex-Enigma, Eldritch Human, elder Prime

Dialogue:

When in his default, black-bodied form, he lacks a voicebox, so he can only speak in hoarse whispers. He will still use his telepathy to communicate sensitive information, or if he's feeling particularly familiar.

Tearen's telepathy is written in italics, without any quotation marks.

He tends to be flowery and ornate when speaking casually, preferring to express his thoughts using very complex language.

Body:

In his Corvidae form, Tearen pretty much looks exactly like a normal crow, though his eyes will still flash when he is exerting his mind.

In his natural form, Tearen's body is made of a black, glassy substance that is physically tough but prone to shattering under blunt force trauma. Beneath his obsidian skin, he has soft tissue and organs that bleed a black, glittering, silty sort of blood. He has two green patches of light on his face that roughly are in the position and shape of eyes. His mouth is a jagged, fractured crack in his face. Normally he keeps himself wrapped in a hood and cowl, with matching raggedy robes to match. He does have a lot of jangly talismans and amulets though.

In his human form, Tearen appears as a tall, dark skinned, green-eyed human with slicked back hair of platinum white. It is braided into a thick ponytail, and trails down to his mid-back. His human facial features are tall and slim, with a somewhat royal bearing, and he wears heavy eye makeup that trails off to the left and right of his eyelashes. He wears half-rim glasses, and usually dresses in a dark suit, though more casual settings may see him wearing a set of loose, black robes.


Equipment:

Aside from his halberd, named Enigma, Tearen doesn't really carry anything on him. His dataverse device is actually a self-made organ inside his brain, so he can connect his mind wirelessly to communicators and the Dataverse. Details on Enigma can be found in its move description.

Movement:

Tearen is just as comfortable in the air as he is on the ground. Though he is not slow, per se, his movements tend to be measured and calculated, almost as if his body was animatronic.

Tearen tends not to make gestures with his hands or do pantomime; he'd rather visually represent his ideas using telepathic imagery.


Tactics:

When in combat, Tearen flows seamlessly between attack and defense, but his primary focus is on controlling the opponent and limiting their options. Many of his moves have considerable synergy, so they will usually be planned in advance and used in concert for a greater effect. Tearen usually prefers to use his opponent's strength against them, and will redirect their movement or attacks in order to do damage to the environment. Once the building starts to fall down, Tearen will just go incorporeal and float away.

On the occasion that his temper gets away from him, Tearen will just cause the destruction himself, usually resorting to his Black Hole supermove as a final show of dominance.
