Powers:
Demonic Ability: Max can heal at a impressive rate and even if he dies, as long as his body remains somewhat together, he will naturally regenerate and revive. If his body parts are scattered.. well, he'll awaken eventually. The only way to really kill this guy is with holy magic, a specific ritual to cleanse and purify his soul.. Though to know which incantation to use, his enemy would have to be very well versed in demonology. Physically he isn't that powerful, seeming no stronger or faster than a mortal man and due to his glamor ( hiding his wings and tail ) he actually looks human most of the time.. but when it comes to his mental prowess and magic ability he is something vicious indeed.
Magic: His power is known as 'Barrier' and it is just as it sounds. Harmless, right? No. This power is open to interpretation and he is very adept at using it in offensive and defensive situations. He has full control of what shape/texture his barriers take and of the conditions of the space contained inside them, able to cage his enemies in a 'dead zone' of sorts to prevent them from using magic.. At least until he runs out of energy. The harder someone beats on his barrier the more it drains him, physically taxing his body to the point of fatigue.. if he is rendered unconscious any active barriers will vanish unless anchored by a blood seal.
Domestic Ability: Demon or not he has been around long enough to pick up on where he fits in society, taking up a interest in cooking. He has had plenty of time to polish his skills as a Chef and gather the knowledge such a field would require.. Cleaning, shopping, and ingredient awareness included. Regardless of the species he is catering to, he can generally whip up something sinfully delicious for them. He isn't squeamish about gathering his own.. questionable.. meats or ingredients, he actually prefers it so that he knows without a doubt the quality is top notch.
Personality:
Max is typically described as a likable guy, hard working and dedicated to his craft despite his otherwise mellow behavior. He's a bit of a introvert, not one to admit when he wants something unless pushed to do so.. yet he is a master at getting others to march to his own beat, so naturally gifted at manipulating those around himself he isn't even aware of it. He seems to have a passive, sarcastic attitude at any given time and he speaks his mind readily.. Possessing a very active yet twisted sense of humor. When embarrassed or cornered there is a distinct difference between the words that come out of his mouth and his body language.. His tongue typically sharp where as his body is far more honest in how he is feeling.
While it is very easy to dismiss this guy as 'normal' one should always remember that he is in fact a demon, his idea of 'morals' far different than a mortal's. He can know and like a human for years and then, on a moment's notice, butcher them for ingredients. Sure, he might miss them a bit.. but it is a vague and fleeting notion. The same could be said for any creature he knows, aside from one in particular. This figure, to him, is precious and he will protect him ruthlessly.. Not that he'll say such a thing out loud.
Bio:
Being a demon Max has had a very long life, growing bored of the constant battle raging for the souls of humanity he abandoned such lofty goals years ago.. How he came to the city is a long and patchy story, all he will say is that he came to this place to expand his cooking technique.. The reality is he was a slave in the last city. Having murdered his previous Master on a whim he'd been executed for the crime.. It took him about three months to revive from that one but perhaps that was for the best, when he woke even the slavers that had so tenaciously hunted him in the past assumed he was truly dead. So, taking his chance, he wrapped a cloth around his slave mark and set off for the next City.
When work didn't demand his attention Max could be found wondering the streets like a stray cat, the male discovering much on his nightly jaunts and finding peace in the quiet. It was on one such night that he stumbled across an abandoned asylum.. having drifted towards the place absently he didn't realize when another presence had flanked him. It was a quick death, teeth tearing into his throat as the delightful scent of blood drifted from his attacker's hair.. Truly, in that hazy moment between life and death, it had been love at first bite.
Of course, being a demon, he did not remain dead.. Waking a few hours later to find himself inside the asylum. He knew his murderer was still there, somewhere inside the building with him, and though he did leave he couldn't bring himself to stay away.. being attacked and killed a number of times throughout his visits during the next two weeks as he attempted to confirm what he had witnessed that first night. Each encounter enthralled him a little bit more and before he knew it a game of cat and mouse had started between them, Max being attacked less and less as he started using the abandoned kitchen as his personal 'base' of sorts. He brought things with him on each visit; Pans, a sleeping bag, books, ingredients.. Making a place for himself without asking even as he continued to work out in the city.
His days now are rather interesting; He hasn't died as often lately, but he has learned a great deal about the male he now lives with.. and as frustrating as it is he's developed a major soft spot for the guy. For better or worse, Max has chosen his new Master.
