That's interesting, its astounding how similar paterns can develop, and well, this character Hiroki was incredibly vast. Born of the Devil and the Holy Mother he was abandoned on Earth and raised by a tribe of Darkfire Dragons until he was changed at the age of 19 and he left. When I started initially playing the character he was nearly 10,000 years old already, having become incredibly powerful already as a vampire. He possessed a multitude of mystical weapons, including twin katanas which fused together in to a more powerful dai-katana, and he frequently used kunai and wakizashis. He had also mastered the different schools of elemental magic and had developed some of his own particular alchemical techniques, in addition to having over a hundred blood demons sealed within his left arm. His story of adventure to this point is quite interesting, with lots of wandering and such seekings.
However, the very interesting stuff was the things I role-played with him in this state (of course, when I created him I didn't know all this stuff of his past, it just gradually revealed itself, at first he was just a vampire to me). He ended up drinking the blood of a Elvin Goddess which caused him to ascend his vampiric form to become something wholey different. For the first time in his existence he ruled a kingdom, was married and had children. However, he hadn't reached his limit and being so unbalanced at times in fits of insanity when his inner demons took over he nearly destroyed it all. Finally he decided to assure his power and gain the balance of his polarities. Slaughtering a village he sent himself to hell to confront the Devil, achieving a form of negative energetic purity that was beyond absolute purity, it was transcended energy, from the God of God. Returning to Earth he at once revived the whole village and prayed to his mother, and so he ascended to the higher planes to stand before the throne of God, and meet his mother, the Holy Mother. Thus he was granted the same purity in positive energy and so was balanced and ascended, becoming at last his true self, an Eternal. He had been bred as a guardian, his power perhaps only just below infinite, his entire path through life so that he may become a pure and ultimate protector for all those whom would call to be free. While still dour, he possessed an incredible amount of compassion, but also the wisdom to understand the natural processes of transition, life and death.
For some reason, this experience of creating this character and story has somehow vibrated with me as being almost prophetic of my own journey through existence. Perhaps this was even my existence in another octave, or perhaps simply the time I have spent in this one. Other times I feel like that THIS life is symbolized by the point I created the character and started playing it. Already old, with knowledge, but somehow still quite incomplete. There have been some fascinating parallels in my own life with many things in the stories, and I feel that so far it has indeed been a foreshadow of my own questing.
Its amazing how we lay our path before us before we have even walked it.
Aha Yes, I have a feeling he was quite different in "real" life, although perhaps still negatively polarized.
