The Backwards Man
Age: 3
Race: Demvir (Machina)
Vigor: 1500
Latens: 0
Persona:
Ruined and cast away from almost its second of awakening, the Backwards Man can best be summed up in one word: Damaged.
Plundered by the organic beings of Terminus and disdained by its own kind for being exploited and ruined, the Backwards Man is a solitary being, left alone to lets its hatred and disdain smoulder and grow.
Having only been awake for three years, the Backwards Man is a bit of an intellectual infant, a grisly, grim husk uninhabited by much knowledge of the world around it, quick to turn violent at the slightest change of wind, and unwilling, or perhaps unable, to lend a gear to reason.
That all said, there may be something beneath the harsh, anguished soul yet undiscovered, a curiosity towards the world at large. Only time will tell.
Physical Stature:
A shattered, partially harvested metal behemoth, the Backwards Man’s true form remains hidden beneath the billowing folds of tattered animal-hyde robes. A dim blue glow emanates from beneath these humble vestments, enmeshed within the concealing darkness, yet another reminder of the harrowing damage to the mechanical being.
Were the robes removed, the true form of the Backwards Man is yet another sad reminder of the mechanical being’s past hardship, a misshapen hulk of twisted metal and shattered glass seemingly only held together through sheer force of will.
While one of the Demvir’s arms still ends in what could be considered a hand (though still missing two fingers), the other has been reduced to a sharp, spear like protrusion, not unlike the stump of an organic amputee, though certainly more dangerous.
The head of the ruined being is badly misshapen and wrecked, the bottom of the clockwork being’s faceplate having been forcibly torn away, leaving only what can best be described as a gaping maw of loose wire and jagged steel. Elsewhere, the being’s eyelids have been torn away leaving two crude, unevenly formed eyes that burn with a wavering blue intensity.
Biography:
Subjected to torment and agonizing torture from almost the moment it was awakened, the ruined Demvir remembers very little of its early days, the anguished days of the past coming to the Backwards Man in bits and flashes that the mechanical being would rather soon forget.
Through a fortuitous turn of events, the mechanical being was able to escape its tormentors, left to roam Terminus, abandoned and spited by organic and synthetic beings alike.
