The Savior

"'You see, you’re… special. The DNA that makes up your body is very adaptive. Every slight alteration makes you stronger, harder to kill. But you already knew that, didn’t you?' - Unknown"The Savior is a being of unknown origin and limitless potential. What exactly it is remains to be determined, but its purpose has been made clear enough already; to be the ultimate killing machine, a force capable of toppling even the strongest adversaries that Avashesh has to offer.

Birth of a Savior
Among the cold and uninviting atmosphere of the Bogwood, the Savior first made its presence known by seemingly tearing itself out of another dimension. The wind twisted and howled as this took place, eventually leaving the 7 foot anomaly to stand alone in the terrible marshlands. The entry of this strange, new being didn't go unnoticed by the local wildlife, and the Savior soon found itself face-to-maw with the apex predator of the Bogwood. In the blink of an eye, the Savior had lost one of its legs; despite this, it remained standing, only to witness the culprit. It was a Nelkesor; a bipedal crocodile-like creature with a high appetite.

Despite the Nelkesor being an immense threat, it stood no chance against the Savior. Gulping down the Savior's severed leg, the beast immediately went in for a second helping, where it would soon come to realize that its prey was far from defenseless. An attempt to bite down over the torso was met with a fatal blow; the Savior abruptly sprouted spikes from its body, impaling the Nelkesor as it tried to bite down. By then, it was too late and the predator skewered itself against these spikes, killing itself in the process.

Removing the creature from its vicinity, the Savior promptly sliced open its stomach to reclaim the missing leg; simply bringing it back towards the leg stump caused the flesh to fuse together, leaving it as if nothing had happened in the first place. Through besting this predator, the Savior had gained something more. The Nelkesor's DNA, assimilated through the creature's blood, was transformed into something useful. The Savior utilized the brutish nature of the beast and enhanced its own muscle mass, leaving it able to run at great speeds. With this immense burst of speed, it easily was able to escape the Bogwood, soon finding itself standing upon the high wall of Ampenfle. Its red stare gazed upon the open valley beyond, showing signs of a battle from before its time. It was in these moments that it came to a realization, and the flesh upon its face tore open to reveal an orifice. What sound came from it was not of its own, but rather a recording from the Savior's creator. With it, came orders; orders to kill a group called the "Boyband".

Contact
The Savior's entry into Shanghai was swift, immediately introducing itself to two known affiliates of this so-called Boyband; Artyom Blithe and Emris Kiryu, son to Weiss Kiryu. The initial assault was merciless, with the Savior's opponents quickly learning just how much of a threat it was to them. A myriad of unique attacks from Emris and Artyom only served to make the Savior smarter and stronger. Explosives were staved off with blast-proof shielding, electricity defeated by rubbery insulation. Eventually managing to freeze the anomaly with cryo rounds, it only served to bolster the Savior's defenses even further. It only kept the thing down for a few seconds, before the ice exploded and the false angel emerged, like a phoenix reborn.

Appearance
The Savior appears as a 7 foot humanoid figure of above-average bulk and musculature, but lacking any defining characteristics of any gender. The flesh is completely stark white, with no discernible facial features beyond a pair of red eyes. Atop of its head sits a glowing halo, perfectly suspended just a few inches above the scalp. Given how the Savior is a highly adaptable being, many of these statistics are variable. Reaching towards the apex of its adaptions, the Savior has adopted a pair of flaming, orange wings, which seem to be simultaneously formed from plasma and act as a solid mass capable of granting it flight.

Personality
At first, it seems that the Savior is completely incapable of independent thought, only able to follow orders as if it were a computer program. This turns out to not be true; at least, not entirely. The Savior cannot disobey said programming, but the way it contacts itself in battle suggests that there's quite a bit more than a mindless brute behind the controls. Still, the Savior is inherently devoid of morals and should be treated with caution, under any and all circumstances.

Abilities
The main bulk of the Savior's abilities resolve around its inherent talent of adaptation. Try to burn it and the Savior turns its skin into an inflammable material. Try to blow it up, and the Savior forms a hardened blast-proof shell over its body. Aside from its high capacity for adapting to situations, the Savior does have some innate abilities, mostly revolving around it being able to change the shape of its limbs and stretch them out to impressive lengths. The Savior can also regenerate its own body rather quickly, sometimes within the span of several seconds depending on the severity of the wound; this was one of the first things that it learned to do.
