Sub-Classes: Materia Mage(*), Sword Sorcerer(*), Materia Knight(*)
Elemental AttributesAbsorb: Null: Strong:Neutral: water, wind, earth, fire, lightning, light, darkness
Weak: Passive AbilitiesAuras: – Elyk has the ability to inflict effects around the space close to him. The auras can be both beneficial or harmful to those near him with effects ranging from buffing defenses, redirecting damage, and possibly the most significant of all stabilizing the space around him to it's normal reality settings.
---
Aura Core: The center of the aura is the most powerful and is almost always the personal space around Elyk and his Weapon. The Aura Core is the radiance of the Paracosm effecting the space around it directly instead of sending out its influence. Inside this space its unknown just how effects can work and the power of the Paracosm on it directly.
Gear Morphing/Class Changing: The Paracosm, the combination of the Avesta relic Thwasha fused with a Creation Embued Huge Materia is both Elyks weapon and armor. It can change its appearance, density, and shape making it very versatile. If Elyk needs a sword and shield, it will form into a sword and shield. If it needs to be a bigger shield, it will increase in size. If he needs for some reason to have two swords, or even a bow to shoot out ether arrows it can do this. The same can be said for his armor and with this ability he can effectively change out his “class” and tactics in battle. Not all forms have been seen but there are a few examples.
------
Sword and Board: Seemingly Elyks default mode he walks around in. It provides a wide range of shield based attacks to go along with the sword abilities he has always used in the past. The shield seems to be able to be used similarly as the sword when it comes to “Deathblows” or ether based uses.
------
All In!: The old style dual wielding that sacrifices the shield for a more offensive mode of attacking.
There are more possibilities but they have not been documented at this time.
Paracosm Biological Support: The Paracosm can keep Elyk alive longer than a normal human could under the same circumstances. It can cover his mouth and provide oxygen when its deprived as in outer space or underwater and auto applies a “Regen” like spell over him. Though this is not a cure all and doesn't instantly fix heavy damage it does allow him to stay in the fight long enough to usually grind down threats.
Materia Mastery - A mastered Materia gives Elyk a passive bonus. This ability is a legacy ability from his time as a Materia Knight. His weapon and armor has access to all Materia Magics and abilities and can even produce them at will for others.
Materia Mage- Normal materia users are limited to the spells contained in the materia, but a Materia mage can alter the spells in different ways creating more complex versions with either increased power, or effects added. Examples being, a fire materia could be used to cast a flaming wave of fire several meters wide or mixing said fire with other materia magics.
Deathblows- The capability to preform ether based melee attacks based on the elements. Earth, Wind, Water, Fire, Light, Dark, Star, Void, Darkmatter, and Creation
Adaptability- The ability to adapt his abilities in new and interesting ways. Also being able to cast all forms of spells using mana/ether/energy/almost anything to convert it into a useable source to power his more powerful abilities.
Sword Casting- In the absense of “ether” or “mana” or the loss of functional magic, Elyk still has the ability to cast from his weapon still, in the point of melee based reactions.
Arcane Warrior- The magical strength is used to infuse his body, all melee attacks are basically infused with his magical strength instead of physical attributes. This ability also applies to when he switches battle modes in a fight. When in sword and shield mode it also adds its bonus to defense for example.
Armor Projection: – The ability to take summons and translate them into projected armors with new abilities for Elyk. These armors can act both independently or under Elyks direct control. Being able to increase their size to “gear” levels its a quick fix to not being able to get to ones Gear.
Dual-Casting- He is able to cast multiple spells at once, even manipulating the spells to cast stranger forms of them.
Lifestream Manipulation: Lifestream runs throughout the universes where there is life, but normally it lays latent far deep, even in the core of each planet where life exists. Xenogaia was different, with its past the Lifestream retreated closer to the surface and had amazing side effects on the inhabitants. Elyk is one of the few who are chosen advents who can manipulate the streams, probably the strongest one.
-----
Weapon Summoning: Elyk can call out to the planet for many things and one perfect example is to form a “Weapon” to defend itself from a threat.
Avesta Attunement- Reconnected to the weapon system but without sacrificing his natural abilities, he now enjoys the perfect blend of lifestream manipulation, with the pure infinite resource of the Avesta System. This attunement would also naturally make him immune to certain toxins along with his senses not being the same as well, sensing through the weapon. With the system off of its leash the relics have started to identify themselves more with merging with various abilities or objects, first was Uzuki and the eclipse rune and with Elyk it seems to be the “Creation” Huge Materia.
Infinity Mode: Just like in omnigear's infinity mode, the Avesta Relics give access to a higher level of combat. Stretching physical parameters and enhancing abilities in various ways. Usually only lasts a short while and under stress. Elyk has mastered this, and can move in and out of it at will.
Equipment
Paracosm- Serving as both weaponry and armor this odd “substance” is a combination of things. Originally the body that was made for him upon his return it was condensed and empowered by the will of creation itself into a fluid huge materia “creation”, that then in turn bonded and melded with the Avesta Relic Thwasha that was housed inside the Materia Alloy sword Elyk created.
Now it covers most of his new biological body forming his weapons and armor in any shape or form necessary. This provides unique opportunities to change “classes” mid fight with altered abilities. It protects its wearer even when Elyk doesn't recognize a threat by using the sensory perception from the Avesta to automatically react within the normal parameters of the systems capabilities.
Although it has no real need to have materia slotted as the Paracosm seems to be able to create materia and acts as if it is every materia giving all of their abilities anyway, Elyk has kept a few for old times sake absorbed permanently into the weapon.
It's default appearance is his normal attire with a greatsword and a shield.
Materia *= Master, (___) = mastery bonus (U) = Universal Materia
Aether(U) <-->*Double Cut(+50% Attack speed)
SpaceTime(U)<--> Void(U)
*Break Damage Limit(No Limit) <--> *Magic Boost(200% Magic Critical Damage)
*Final Attack(Attack does Double Damage) <--> Merkava
*HP Plus(Break HP Limit) <--> Star(U)
All Universal magics are cast normally on a small scale, but with enough energy they can be cast on a grander scale. Elyk has practiced these abilities in secret and now can also use their “Elements” to create new deathblows. These Orange Materia are considered a reminder of a dark time for Elyk when he was enslaved by rage and revenge. How these were formed will leave a black stain on him forever but keeps him focused to never fall to his inner self ever again. Wanting to destroy them, the tactician in him would never allow him to get rid of such a powerful tool.
AccessoriesEther Doubler- Uses 2xep to do 2x effect. Works with other resources to cast effects.
Magic Crisis- As Vitality lowers Magic increases.

Materia Special“Materia Burst” - A materia is literally “Burst”, Depending on what type of materia is burst produces various effects. This effect can happen to any materia present close to him. Bringing Materia to a fight with him is akin to bringing your enemies hand grenades to the fight with them able to pull the pin at any time.
History31,000 Years Ago: The original
U-TIC Organization was founded, and was closely connected with the "Miltian Conflict". It was an organization not associated with the
Galaxy Federation, yet boasted a level of technology and military force that far surpassed those of the Federation government or military. U-TIC's leader at that time was a mysterious man known as "Margulis". The origins of the organization can be traced back to the
Mizrahi Neuro-science Institute, which in effect means that
Joachim Mizrahi was the U-TIC's original founder.
26,000 Years Ago: The Philadelphia Class Interstellar Starship,
Eldridge, which was transporting the mobile biological weapon,
-Deus-, crashed on an unknown and seemingly uninhabited planet when -Deus-, which was supposed to have been in stasis, unexpectedly started up, and hacked into
-Razael-, the main computer core of the Eldridge. -Deus- forcibly changed the ship's course towards "the main planet", or
Lost Jerusalem. Having no other options, the captain of the Eldridge, "Shigeyoshi Inoue", ordered the evacuation of the ship, and then forced it to crash on a nearby planet.
16,000 Years Ago: The
-Contact- "Fei Fong Wong" fought against the newly formed -Deus- weapon system to save his love, "Elly", who also happened to be a key component of the Core System of -Deus-. He succeeded in defeating the physical aspect of -Deus-; however, the "core" of -Deus- lived on, only partially defeated. The remaining -Deus System- sank down into the planet itself, retreating from the battle in defeat. Fei, content with having Elly back and knowing that he could not himself go after -Deus- inside the planet itself, lived on...believing -Deus- to be in containment.
15,998 Years Ago: In a "mix-up" of sorts, the "Humans" of the Planet took up arms against an unidentified vessel in orbit, believing it to be part of the Galaxy Federation that abandoned Deus some 10,000 years prior. The result was the crash landing of the -Cetra- Space Colony. The -Cetra- Space Colony was a deep space expedition, intended to find planets that were suitable to cultivate life for future Human settlement, using "natural" methods. The majority of survivors of the crash told of how the universe was in shambles due to Human civil war. Some even some joked about the fact that they were often referred to as "space hippies", due to their somewhat bizarre views concerning the nature of "planets", being "one" with them.
Over the many years, -Deus- lived alongside the unique and highly mysterious
Lifestream inside the planet, which had come to be known as
Gaia. -Deus-, after a time, had even evolved into a state similar to that of the Lifestream. However, with -Deus- being "broken", in a manner of speaking...a "will" inside of -Deus- began to influance it. It was none other than the will of the man known as "Krelian". He had no desire to simply remain and stagnate inside the planet, and thus, inserted enough of his "will" to more or less "force" -Deus- into action, a virtual "war" agaisnt the Lifestream. Meanwhile, the -Cetra-, and the Humans, lived on the planet, largely oblivious. The Humans consumed vast amounts of resources, while the -Cetra- attempted to cultivate and preserve them.
14,000 Years Ago: -Deus-, under the influence of Krelian's "will", used the newly evolved form of the -Deus- System itself to generate a "body" for the Central -Deus- Programming Core. The plan was to move beyond its boundaries, and take over the planet in a physical, humanoid form. Strangely, it took on a more feminine appearance as it appeared to the world. As -Desu- directly moved against the Lifestream, the -Cetra-, led by a reincarnation of the offspring of the -Contact- (Fei Fong Wong) and the -Antitype- (Elly), known then as "Zahn Geister", moved to stop it. -Deus- or "JENOVA", as it was called, used its most powerful "Terminal Interface Weapons", which were referred to as "WEAPON", literally creating the infamous "Northern Crater" with its newly focused powers through the mysterious artifact weapon, known as
Doombringer. Powers that krelian discovered, cultivated himself for -Deus-, or JENOVA to use. However, as with all things Krelian was involved with, he had a superior follow-up plan already devised. The Doombringer was just one component to Krelian's..."revised"
Anima/Animus System. Using the Doombringer as a model, Krelian developed fourteen other "weapons", which acted as the "power cores" of the new -Deus- "Energy System". The weapons, dubbed "God Fears", were the fourteen -Anima- that would bind to the twelve -Animus-. According to his design, there was an "Alpha", and an "Omega" -Animus-, who would wield two of the -Anima- as one. The system was designed for diffrent funtions, but for this "event" in history, one of its major purposes came to light. When all the -Anima- combined to their -Animus-, it was the only way to gather enough power to halt that of Doombringer, and destroy the -Deus- Programming Core inside JENOVA.
With the orginal -Deus- programming effectively erased, Krelian then had full control of the entire -Deus- System. Krelian, like unto a "god", wanted to spread his "religion" across and throughout the cosmos, but also realized that would have to come only in due time. Also, some very interesting things began to occur, which he had not anticipated. The Lifestream had begun to react agaisnt him. He was fully aware that it was a "natural lifegiving entity", but by the same token, so was he. Over a 2,000 year period, he studied and learned about the stream, and its various reactions. In a "test" of sorts, he released the information on how to form
Meteor, which was originally an "doomsday attack" that he had discovered to be "infused" into Doombringer. Much to Krelian's delight, the Lifestream took the knowledge, and crystalized it into what would come to be known as the "Black Materia". This series of event confirmed his theory that he could take his -Zohar- energized designs, and occurances, and have the "Stream" copy the knowledge, forming it into "Materia", which could then be used by almost anyone, using the energy of the Lifestream, instead of the -Zohar Modifier-.
12,003 Years Ago: The culmination of experiments gone wrong, and the subsequent reactions of the Lifestream, and the planet itself. The entity known as
Sephiroth reacted to the JENOVA, or -Deus- cells that were infused into him, causing him to desire to become "one" with the planet, or rather, one with -Deus-, again...in order to go back to the way it was before Krelian imposed his will. But he was stopped by the "revolutionary" group known as AVALANCHE, with the help of their former enemies, the "Turks", from the defunct mega-conglomerate
Shin-Ra Inc."Reno Cascade", the then leader of the Turks, claimed the Doombringer, but in his possession, it assumed the form of
Kijinjiraden. To this day, it is still unknown what the cause of this phenomenon was, although a number of theories have been postulated. After claiming the Kijinjiraden, he, and his fellow Turks, aided AVALANCHE in their fight against Sephiroth, since Shin-Ra Inc. had already been defeated. During the final battle, Reno sacrificed his own life to save that of the young Ninja, "Yuffie Kisaragi". After his death, Reno ended up in the "otherworld", where he was allowed to keep his physical body as a reward for his final act of selflessness. He spent the equivalent of several years (from his own point of view) in the otherworld, during which time he received special training from "North Kai" and "Elder Kai". After some time, he was granted life once again in order to fulfill a specific purpose...
When he came back, only a short time had passed, a few months at the most. He assumed control of Shin-Ra Inc. after his return. However, something inside Kijinjiraden was odd, and the Doombringer had begun to re-emerge. Reno's intrinsic mental instability had somehow been made to draw out Doombringer. The appearance of the Doombringer, and that of Reno's psychotic alter ego, "Id", affected the direction of the company. Around this time is when the "General of SOLDIER", one "Elyk X", comes into the big picture. He himself, much like his predecessor, General Sephiroth, was in the SOLDIER Program, albeit an altered version of it. Elyk was stationed away from Midgar when the attacks hit, at a highly classified excavation site, where Shin-Ra discoved the first set of God Fears. Shortly afterward, Reno promoted Elyk to General of SOLDIER, and he quickly became an important figure within the company.
After a time Alex, Elyk's son, appeared, supposedly from the future. This was a trigger of many events. Firstly, Krelian started to move, influencing events with the God Fears, and manipulating Elyk directly, eventually breaking Elyk down in order for the General to be his -Merkava-. However, the Lifestream countered, with Elyk's own son, Alex, the Stream placing its bid for survival with him. Eventually Elyk "fused" with Alex in order to fully construct -Merkava-...but the Stream was too strong in Alex, and took his father out of -Merkava- with him. Elyk, seeing how he was fooled, gave up his own life to Alex...his very life's energy, so Alex could stop -Merkava-, which he did.
It was right around this time when Reno came to his senses, though not before his alter ego, "Id", in a last ditch effort, completely annihilated the entirety of
Neo-Midgar. In reality, "Reno", as he was then named, was actually a reincarnation of Fei and Ellys' child...the -Neo-Contact". Reno was the third "incarnation, after "Zhan Geister", and "Erich Wong", although Reno was actually the first to actually make "contact" with the -Zohar Modifier-, and subsequently, the -Wave Existence-. In the wake of the destruction of Neo-Midgar, he left Shin-Ra, and formed the "Yggdrasil Crew", which was a small organization, consisting mostly of Reno's closest friends and allies, in addition to a number of former Shin-Ra employees who were loyal to Reno.
A year of so went by, and the undead corpse of Elyk had risen up with malicious intentions to simply "destroy everything". Alex, with along Killiak and Reno, led the charge against this apparent "Leech". When all was said and done, and with the Leech destroyed, Elyk's "will" within the Lifestream created a new body for himself, but in reality, Krelian helped him accomplish this feat. As soon as Alex saw his father again, he returned the God Fear "Judgement Day" to him. This seemingly simple act set in motion yet another of Krelian's plans...
12,000 Years Ago: Elyk X, alive and well, began to build an empire in secret. Under the wisdon and guidance of Krelian, Elyk re-established the
Holy Empire of Solaris, and hid it away from the rest of the world utilizing the ancient -Gate- technology. Elyk was by that time working for the benifit of Krelian, not by force or through trickery, but by choice, after having been let in on the plan. Solaris was to spread the "Energy System" all across the universe...by any and all means necessary. This also meant getting his son, Alex, to help. Bringing "Sky Strife", Alex's love, back to life, was the key to getting Alex's loyalty, and to that end, Alex had to change his name in order to conceal his identy. Calling himself "Good Reverend", he also began to pilot the "Omnigear"
Fenrir.
With the stage set, what was presumed to be the "final battle", was about to take place. When all the -Anima Relics- of the Omnigears were aligned, and all the energy -Anima- from the God Fears where aligned as well, Elyk prepared his daughter. His daughter, Theresa, who had been missing for three years, was in fact pregnant the entire time, but never gave birth. She was to bear the physical form of the -Deus- Energy System. With all the the pieces being in place, Elyk peformed the unholy process of focusing all the -Anima Relics-, and Energy -Anima-, into the womb of Theresa. Thousands of years of planning was coming to a close as Krelian was reborn out of the womb of Theresa, the -Anima- strengthening the body, as the Energy -Anima- give him all the energy and power possessed when he was within the Energy System. When he emerged, he informed Elyk that his name from then on would be "Judas". Judas took the God Fear "Essence Fracture", as his own personal weapon.
Of course, all that occuring inside of -Merkava- was not to go untested. Outside, the Yggdrasil Crew led by Reno, and a new ally in Good Reverend/Alex, worked to fight their way inside. Reverend held off the -Seraph Angels- outside, taking control of the situation, in order to allow Reno and some of his crew to enter into -Merkava-. Inside, Reno and his crew, consisting of a number of highly skilled warriors such as "Raven" and "Hotaru", in addition to several former members of the group known as "AVALANCHE", met with many challanges, but ultimately made it to the chamber where "Judas" was born, only to find the dead body of Theresa, and and also...Elyk X himself. The battle, was furious and Elyk soundly defeated the Yggdrasil Crew and AVALANCHE members, even killing some of them outright, leaving just Reno and himself. The two fought furiously, until they crashed through to the center of -Merkava-, revealing the replica of the old Shin-Ra Building, and Elyk's wife, "Angel", who had been living there in "ignorance", as if the past several years had never happened. The fight between Elyk and Reno could have continued for a while longer, but Reno didn't have time for it. He knew...he could feel "Judas". So, in what may not be one of themost "clean" victories, Reno used Elyks one and only true weakness...his wife. It tore Reno up inside to have to do it, especially in such a way...but with Elyk defeated...and dead, Reno, in his severely injured state, looked up to see "Judas".
Reno was injured and worn out from the fight with Elyk, but he knew he had to defeat Judas, the new -Deus-, in order to fullfill his "purpose", as -Neo-Contact-. Judas was easily a match for Reno, especially in his tired and injured state, combined with Judas' usage of the "Fracture Watou Jutsu", and his nature as the -Deus- Energy System with a physical body. Reno, despite a valiant effort, was defeated. However, before he died, he did one thing that would make him a worthy -Neo-Contact-. Even though Reno had figured out he couldn't "win", he knew that he would at least be able to cause enough damage to virtually paralyze Judas, sealing off almost all of Judas' power. But Judas, or "Krelian", was not one to give up. He absorbed the last bit of energy that was in the mobile weapon -Merkava-, and used it open a path to "Lost Jerusalem". Judas' last words were:
"Stupid Reno...I'll just improvise. I will go to the one place that is void of all time, and dimension. The place where I will gather back all of my energy, and power...and I shall devour everything from there."As the powerless -Merkava- fell, Reverend/Alex sped frantically to escape with, along with Sky, from the crash. Over the course of the years, he gathered up all the God Fears that remained, and they left in search of "Judas".
11,000 Years Ago: After 1,000 years of searching with Reverend/Alex for Judas, Sky asked him to settle down on a planet, and for him to stop giving her treatments to keep her alive and young. She asked, because she could no longer handle living that long, for her mind was becoming lost to her. She understood that Alex could not die with her...but requested that he let himself get older with her. For 120 more years, they lived normal lives...got old, and when she passed away, he mourned for years after her death, as an old man. Eventually though, he remembered that he had a mission...and to that end, he regressed his age back down to "21", and left the planet. From that point on, Alex was never the same. He became much more focused, and consumed himself with his "work".
6,000 Years Ago: Reverend came across the fourth incarnation of the -Neo-Contact-, known only as "Wolfgang", and both of them discovered that in their universe, the path to "Lost Jerusalem" was completely sealed off. Upon this discovery, they used a "forbidden" technology (that is, forbidden ever since Shin-Ra used it thousands of years ago), to leap across dimensional boundaries into their current one, where they seek to find a yet unsealed path to Lost Jerusalem.
Reverend was keeping Elyks body in containment aboard the Asgard Mobile Fortress of U-TIC's. Elyk's body upon death reverts to the leech, and during a "Disagreement" with Killiak and Reverend, the containment ended. The leech escaped and landed on a planet with emerging Information technology, but nothing too advanced. The Leech having devoured the entire planet, was stopped by a small group of U-TIC led by Reverend and Killiak who defeated the Leech and thought it completly destroyed. Reverend...the son then left a monument to his father behind. He stabbed Judgement Day down into the ground as a headstone for his father.....
3 days later after the fighting was all over, the energies of the Sword stuck into the ground of the infested lair of the Leech have been altering it. You see...the Lair of the Leech is also a part of the Leech himself. The disgusting mucus, the black death that surrounds him, is himself. Even though the main body of the Leech was destroyed, the componets of the leech began to form again from the building blocks locked away in his lair. The Skeletal leech emerging from the mucus, his eyes glowing green. His body is not yet complete, but the Leech is being called...being summoned by the pulses of Judgement Day. When the leech wrapped his hands around the handle of the sword, Flesh began to spring onto the bones, and the Leech was no more. The Leech is gone...and Elyk is reborn. The soul of Elyk inside of the Judgement Day taking back his body.
Largely its been lost to history what happened after that, but what is known is that Elyk and Wolfgang fought inside Lost Jerusalem and that Elyk was “slain”..... But in those final moments Elyk hijacked the Dues System to access the Zohars ability to cross manipulate multiple realities until a desired effect happens, he searched for an escape transfering his conscience to an Elyk from a different dimension. Unfortunately that Elyk trapped him after learning his secrets.
Having come back and joined up with U-TIC in what seemed to be a hell bent plan and task to finally get revenge against Reno, an unlikely person stepped in to change things. The stranger “Dom” having sensed that Elyk shouldn't even be around during this time line seen the anomaly as it was, another chance to change the outcome of the piss poor events from the future.
First was to get rid of Iris, who was in fact a high level telepath that stopped Elyks mind from healing from his time in the “tank” and only let the shard of hatred emerge as it was more easily manipulated. She was a member of the Grand Advent and after calming Elyk down from his mental breakdown and then healing, it was learned by Dom and the others that during Elyk's time in the tank the will of creation came to him and offered him one last chance. To forgo the path he always found himself on as a puppet of “evil” and a chance to right his wrongs. He chose the path of creation, but his healing process was interrupted by Iris.
Now free from the bonds that enslaved him once again and given a real body he has taken up the mantle of Creations Knight, protecting it from the threats out there that try to destroy it all.
PersonalityHas become a bit more serious recently, but still pops out the bad pun or joke every now and then.
He has been consumed with guilt over his previous actions and sees his current situation as a blessing to make up for them.
AppearanceHe has a traditional “Mako Glow” to his eyes, except that it is more blue than a blue-green. But the green is still slightly there. His hair is white, and is usually found to be in a pony tail. His body is covered in the paracosm that gives off the appearance of durable armor that allows him to be quite mobile but still provide protection that is adequate. In other words, a long dark blue coat can be worn and he looks like he has no armor at all on. Aside from that the paracosm usually simulates his traditional greatsword and now a shield to go along with it.
Basically like this...
