Personality
Theo is the type of guy to live according to his own rules no matter the consequences. What is the point of living if you're not happy? Theo prides himself on living to the fullest and without regrets, or, at the very least, very few regrets. Others opinions on most matters are lost on him and mean less to him than dirt. At least dirt supports him on this earth plane. People just might as well not even speak in the first place. It isn't that he isn't nice it is just that he is brutally honest and not afraid to hurt someone's feelings. Acting this way has caused people to label him as somewhat of a jerk, even if it isn't exactly the case and he doesn't deny it. He doesn't vey for others attention, in fact, he has very few people he would actually mind losing in his life. He is very protective over what is his and will tear someone limb from limb (likely literally) if they wish any harm upon his things or if they try and take them from him. His pride and ego are quite large and valuable to him as well, yet another reason he has a bad reputation among most people. Despite all of this, he has his good moments now and again, even if they are far in between. For the most part he acts with a moderate level of sanity. The surefire way to break his sanity is to feed his sadism. Pain is love to him and, visually, one of his greatest pleasures in life.

Personality
Sweet. Innocent. Kind. Gentle. Everything Angel wants you to believe she is. It's hard not to see her as anything but these things when around her. She puts on a good show and when these are things you once were, it makes it all the much more easy to fake it. Angel hardly ever breaks her facade, opting for people to believe that she is only as she appears; a small, fragile girl who's tortured and afraid. Everything, however, is not how it appears. In fact, there is nobody worse than Angel. People's suffering... Bloodshed... Chaos... She relishes it in every way. She'd have you believe she strongly rejected and still rejects Theo even though, now, she easily welcomes the darkness inside of her. She wasn't always like this. She used to be the role she plays... Small and meager in every way, hoping for the best, and trying to see the best in everyone. Her golden hearted demeanor fought Theo at first with everything she had but everyone has their breaking point and frankly, she hit hers fairly quickly. The Angel she once was shattered and gave way to a much darker and more demented Angel that is all she really knows anymore. But with how she acts, with the show she puts on, not many understand this, or even know who the real Angel is now or then.

Weapons / Powers
Theo is evil, that much is for sure. Not exactly a demon but a dark entity that needs light and life to feed from in order to thrive. His form in itself is his weapon. He's a lot stronger, faster and more durable than the average person. His fists are his weapon and you'd better believe they'll do some damage. Theo saps his power from the darkness that feeds on Angel from the inside out. The two are bound and share power. If one takes too much, the other will suffer. The only other weapon he has are his snakes, used for inserting into a vessel. Small, sturdy, not too powerful, but venomous with a poison that will rot your mind and soul.

Powers / Weapons
Whereas Theo inserts his snakes inside his vessels, Angel is one of his snakes. Her blood is acidic and poisonous. Fangs are hidden in her gums and are readily venomous if needed. She has the uncanny ability to be conniving, persuasive, sneaky, and lithe. Theo is sturdy and powerful. Angel is nimble, quick, and evasive. If not fighting with her hands and wits, she keeps a variety of small, secretive knives and blades on her for slashing and the such. If possible, like Theo, she can sap the life of others to gain power although its dangerous for the victim, often more so than it is worth and may very well kill them.
Darkness thrives where there is light. Light illuminates and bleeds through the darkness. They need each other.
At the time, Evangeline could barely fend for herself. She was meek and fragile, depending on her brother and grandparents, although doing the best she could, even if it wasn't much. When someone came to threaten their peaceful life, all Evangeline could think to do was cry out for help. When people had little to their name, when they were poor and desperate, they were willing to extend their hardships onto others, to trade it off no matter the cost. A small band of people with nothing left to lose came to their peaceful farm and demanded from their grandparents. The couple, despite being elderly and generous, refused to back down in the face of hostility. They were beat and the crops, burned. When her brother tried to defend them, he was bound and hurt. Evangeline could only watch from a crack in the door, terrified but unable to do anything.
Inside she called out desperately, at anything, even if there was nothing there.
Help me! Help them! Please! My brother... my family is in danger...
"Sweet girl... You are helpless alone. With my help... You could be so much more. All I want is you. Your life. A price, small compared to the value of your precious family, isn't it?"
Still, the light inside of Evangeline resisted against this darkness. Even if she wanted to protect her family she knew this was not the right thing to do. But Theo had his sights set on this vessel for his power, his poison. She was a light he yearned to smother. All it would take was breaking it a little, shattering this resilience and the shambles, the leftovers sparks would follow and die. So, Theo came. He wrought pain upon those that hurt her family. And then, her brother.
"No!"
"Join me! All you have to do is say the words, Angel."
Theo's face twisted into a sickeningly demented grin and she watched helplessly as his hands twisted around her brother's neck, taking one side of his head in one of his hands and forcefully twisting it until his neck made a horrible snapping noise. His body fell to the floor with a jarring thud and her brother's eyes stared at nothing in particular, glassed over... dead.
Evangeline clutched her head, shook it wildly and screamed.
"What are you supposed to do when you have nothing left? Shall I kill your grandparents too? Don't you wish to be stronger, strong enough to protect those that you love?"
Evangeline could only keep screaming, wanting to deny what she knew was now true. Tears spilled down her face. And then, the horrible sounds that followed... they left her silent. A wet tearing sound assaulted her ears and something rolled over toward her. When Evangeline looked up she saw it was her brother's head, resting an inch away from her leg. Theo reached out for her, stroked her cheek and left a smear of blood across her pale face. She picked up the lifeless head, stared silently into those glassy eyes and decided then to take in the darkness. The poison forced its way inside her, in her heart and soul and filled every crevice until there was nothing left. Until there was only Theo. Only darkness...
Theo did only as he had to. A vessel was needed as an anchor for him to attach himself to the world and reality as it was. Nobody served as a better anchor than his Angel. She grew to adapt to the darkness fairly well and eventually even embraced it. As much as Angel is his to make suffer, to strip down and take, he is hers. Life became a lot less valuable and taking it away became more of a hobby for her than it was for him. She might fool everyone, but as it stands now, Evangeline loves the new her and embraces every drop of venom that resides inside her.
