BIO -------------------------- NAME: Azrael (origin: Hebrew, meaning: angel of death) AGE: nobody knows anymore GENDER: male, he/him LIKES: chaos, pain, generally every bad thing DISLIKES: peace, calm, happiness PERSONALITY: chaotic, ✨anarchy✨, ✨arson✨, cynical, cold-hearted, untrusting, definitely trustworthy definitely (/j), can make you spill all your secrets with a single look (or more like Aislinn can), violence is the answer to everything, unfortunately really good at making actually good plans, villainous, sadistic, masochistic FAMILY: none LOVE INTEREST: Aislinn (origin: Irish, meaning: dream or vision) (agender, it/its) OTHER: Aislinn is the eye. you have no idea how much i just want to leave you with no backstory and leave you wondering why in the world Azrael likes an eye haha-- he also be a fallen angel. tails signify the wings he would've had had he remained an angel. NOTES: neither eye (Aislinn and the one on his chest) is optional. the amount of tails can't be changed. the last image is Aislinn before it got killed and turned into an eye. the stuff on the left is floof covering its other eye. Aislinn technically has wings but i didn’t draw those (like i didn’t draw its body) -------------------------- BACKSTORY -------------------------- Azrael hadn't always been demonic. Ok, scratch that, he has. Even as a small kit he delighted in catching (and eating) bugs just a little more than the others. As they grew out of catching everything they could, he never did. He liked the pain he could cause them before he actually killed them. He liked imagining them with a happy life that he had snuffed out with little more than a paw. Azrael disliked everyone, honestly, and everyone disliked him as well. Yes, I know that's kind of cliche for a villain, but this backstory is going to be full of cliches, all right? (And fourth wall breaking. Clearly.) Except for this one angel. Aislinn was its name. Aislinn was the peacemaker, the one who could get Azrael to stop fighting with someone or leave a bug or mouse alone. The only one who could; anybody else who even tried was likely to get those sadistic actions turned on them. No one could understand why, exactly, the two of them liked each other, but no one argued. If Aislinn kept Azrael from turning into a full demon, who cares what else they got up to? You see, while all cats are born angels, they can easily turn into demons. Signs are reddening eyes, darkening fur, and losing feathers (as they also had wings). Azrael's eyes were a light red, his fur was a dark brown (as opposed to the light tan fur he'd been born with), and his wings were practically featherless. But when he was with Aislinn, everything seemed to lighten. His eyes seemed more purple, his fur appeared lighter, and his wings were healthier. But. Then the leader of the angels changed. This new leader, Sahil, decided that Azrael was too close to being a full demon to be safe to be around. So he forced the punishment for those who turned into demons upon him; death to family and closest friends, and banishment from their realm in the sky forever. Azrael, to everybody's surprise, pleaded for only the banishment. He wasn't a full demon yet, he said, so why should he get the full punishment? Most people actually thought this was reasonable, and Aislinn was well-liked by all, so they quickly agreed with him. But Sahil was adamant. He would receive the full punishment. And so, Aislinn was publicly executed, and Azrael banished from their realm. Azrael searched and searched for some sort of spell to bring Aislinn back, wanting to vow vengeance but knowing Aislinn wouldn't have wanted it, but all he could manage was summoning it as an eye, so it could watch over him. After thousands of years of searching (demons and angels are both immortal unless intentionally killed by another), Azrael finally gave up. He still knew Aislinn wouldn't want it, it did its best to tell him, but he decided to get revenge. Sahil had taken everything from him, so he would take everything from Sahil. That was when the transformation was finally complete; his eyes turned fully red, his wings wilted, but strangely, his fur didn't turn the typical demon black; it remained a brown, showing that there was a chance for redemption, no matter how small. He grew another tail, to signify the wings he could've had, and an eye burned itself into his chest, for Aislinn. Azrael slowly picked off everyone close to Sahil, evading capture the whole while, before finally finishing the revenge he'd vowed he would take, and killing Sahil. Now he roams the worlds, still on the lookout for a way to bring Aislinn back to him. --------------------------
