Full Name: Perdix Vulcanus, Unit 1538-2862
Nickname(s): Red, Colonel Paperwork
Apparent Age: 17
Actual Age: Millennia; however, his current memory bank only goes back ~500 years
Height: 173 cm/~5'8''
Weight: 67 kg/~148 pounds
Gender: Technically genderless, appears and identifies as male.
Race: Angel (Mass Production, Malakim class)
Alliance: Lady Bennu!
Home: Paradiso, Areas D & F (depends on where Bennu is)
Franchise: Starless Skies
Physical Description
Perdix looks like a young man in his late teens, with slightly pale, greenish skin, a mop of green-blonde hair, and mismatched eyes, one red and one yellowgreen. Around his eyes and covering roughly a third of his face is a darker patch of skin, resembling a mask. Extending from his back is a pair of yellowish-green partridge wings with yellow stripes. When Perdix utilizes shapeshifting, his green colours and mismatched eyes remain. His canine teeth are slightly oversized and poke a bit out of his mouth when closed.
As a Malakim-class mass production, Perdix dresses quite a bit fancier than normal. His regular outfit consists of a dark olive suit, a pale green undershirt, and a white cravat with a red pin, the pin having an upward-facing triangle. This outfit seems supernaturally immune to being ruffled.
Weapons and Accessories
If so inclined, Perdix can summon a golden dagger for combat. He's also prone to carrying around sheets of paper, so be careful of papercuts.
Although he carries a Sending Stone, it has been cracked and can no longer transport items, and has a shaky signal.
Abilities/Powers
Perdix possesses the standard angel abilities: Flight, biological immortality, the ability to regenerate from otherwise-fatal wounds if his wings are intact, super toughness and strength, weapon generation, shapeshifting, and access to angel magic. Although his strength is superior to a human's, he's rather weak by angel standards, even though he seems unusually hard to actually knock out. He has weak pyrokinetic powers, which allow him to summon and control flames, as well as giving him a higher tolerance for hot and dry places. Perdix also has gravitokinesis, allowing him to manipulate the gravity of people and objects, forming the basis of his personal spell, the Gravity Flare, in which he uses a short burst of flame to distract an enemy long enough to harshen their personal gravity, limiting their movement.
As his body is relatively disposable, Perdix can discard his clip, actually his memory drive, in a crisis, and have his memories re-uploaded onto a new body.
Weaknesses
To be frank, Perdix was not made for fighting, and as a result, his combat capabilities are below-average. He's not particularly strong nor fast, although he does have a higher tolerance for pain and is quite good with support magic. Due to his body's artificial nature, he requires regular oil changes, and he WILL get disoriented when exposed to a strong magnetic field. Finally, his memory drives have a storage limits; if they are full, he has to be hooked up to a special drive to dump his excess data, otherwise he will overheat and malfunction.
Skills
Perdix has three core jobs programmed into his memory; do secretary work, be a butler, and do the occasional attorney job. He's impeccable at these three jobs and those jobs alone; he can have a file cabinet organized five different ways in an hour, perform all chores to perfection, and he'll do his best to save his client in a trial.
Personality
Perdix is devoted to his master, Councilangel Bennu Gnowee. Although he will perform tasks if his superiors ask him to do so, said jobs may be sloppily done, as he feels only Lady Bennu deserves his full service. While he will act as a personal confidant to Bennu, Perdix isn't above snarking at others or stating his raw opinion. He's not a bad guy, though; he might even be a bit hard to get rid of if he thinks of you as his friend.
