OverconfidentMagi
Laugh Like You've Won Always
Name: Arsean Carciphi
Age: 411
Mental Age: 29
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Q: Regular or Irregular? ->A: Regular
Species: Deep Sea Wraith
Appearance: Arsean's body is hidden beneath armor made of some kind of white metal, usually with normal clothing over it to blend in better. Presumably he looks much like his sister without the armor, though taller and with slightly more bulk.
Personality: Arsean is overflowing with confidence and has the ego to match it (though which stems from which is anyone's guess). He constantly challenges anyone who he thinks might be able to put up a fight, and he pushes those who might one day be worth fighting to succeed and grow into opponents worth fighting. He can also act like the boy Nyra remembers on occasion, tossing aside his air or power and pretension and just having fun and laughing from his heart.
Position: Fisherman, Defender, Wave Controller, Anima
High-Ranker: Rank 195
Sobriquet: Black Pit Eel
Affiliation: Wolhaiksong / Neutral
Abilities and skills:
Deep Sea Wraith Physiology: Arsean is the same race as his sister. Instead of bandages and oil to keep his skin from drying out he had a specialized suit of armor made that keeps his body wet and safe from injury.
Shinsoo Resistance: As a High-Ranker, Arsean's Shinsoo resistance is above average to put it lightly. He spends most of his time in an isolated part of the tower where the Shinsoo density is extremely high and has no trouble moving around.
Anima: Arsean's power to completely dominate the many types of Shinheuh within the tower with just his will alone is terrifying. He's gone so far as to attempt to subjugate even the floor Guardians themselves.
Weapons: Not naturally skilled with the ability to control Shinsoo, Arsean uses wands to amplify his ability to control the Shinsoo around him. They are usually stored inside the arms of his armor. He also has a special contract with the Guardian of the 84th floor that lets him control vast amounts of Shinsoo on that floor. His armor also hides two long needles on the inside of each arm. Infinitely more dangerous than Arsean's own weapons or Shinsoo control are the many Shinheuh he controls. He is spoken about having a veritable army of Shinheuh that he keeps with him on the 84th floor, but there's one in particular that sits magnitudes above the others, and it's this one that is Arsean's oldest and most loyal Shinheuh and the one which earned him his Sobriquet. Leviathan, a Black Pit Eel that was with Arsean when he first started climbing the tower and grew to unimaginable size during the time since. When not compressed, many regulars mistake it for a floor Guardian due to its incredible scale.
Leviathan, Arsean's pit eel, next to Yazir'el, Nyra's golden pit eel for scale.
History: When the Rankers killed the two parent Pit Eels, Arsean was furious. His anger only grew as he comforted the young child Pit Eel. He wanted to do something, but there was nothing he could do, he was powerless. That was when Headon appeared. He'd been watching the siblings because of their unusual power over the Shinheuh and was delighted by the events that had ignited such a passion for action in this one. Arsean said yes to climbing the tower of course. His goal: getting stronger and finding the Rankers that had killed the two Pit Eels.
It was difficult, but with each floor he ascended the young eel he'd brought with him grew larger. When it grew too large he was forced to compress it back to a manageable size else it started to dwarf the testing areas whenever it was outside of its bowl. The higher the floors went, the easier time Arsean had using the Shinheuh around him and Leviathan, the name he'd given the ever-growing eel, to clear the way for his climb. In the end he made it to becoming a Ranker easier than he'd expected, and not even that but being marked as a High-Ranker. He had no connections and no influence before that, but his ability and power over the tower's creatures alone meant he was strong enough to be a High-Ranker.
He let the acknowledgment of his power get to him, and he started challenging those stronger than him to see if his rank assignment was really how strong he was. He tracked down the Rankers that had set off his climbing the tower first, both thanking them and destroying them completely. After that he just kept wandering the tower for a while, collecting new types of Shinheuh and fighting other Rankers for fun. He started taking things too far when he tried testing his control over the creatures of the tower on the floor Guardians themselves. Needless to say, they had none of that and one even tried to kill him in retaliation. He fought back well enough that the floor Guardian let him walk away. One had a very different reaction to the young man's hubris, and it's on that floor that Arsean has made his home.
