Soul Channeling-ability to channel spells or mana into weapons and armor to boost effects. Spells Channeled into weapons ?cast? when a successful hit is made and spells in armor improved defense by 1 for each 10 mana in the casting of the spell. One Channel = One Cast

Dracah Spirit-Spirit of Asheria the Dark resides within granting insight and seventh sense in both combat and interactions, however considering the difference in motives this is a fickle bonus. On a dice roll + Wisdom with a difficulty set by the scenerio with success granting +1d6 bonus on a Perception, Wisdom, or Intellect (non-spell casting) roll. Upon failing the motives of Asheria interfere and place a -1d6 penality on the same roll. This bonus applies only if next roll is taken in 4 rounds. Multiple uses of this skill cannot stack and a second attempt cannot be made while bonus/penality is in effect. Staff may invoke this ability.

Dracah Shift-manifest various aspects of Demonkind in physical form. Most notable are the fully functional wings and tail. Known to manifest Eyes (+1d4 Perception to sight based rolls), Ears (+1d4 Perception to sound based rolls), Vocal Cords (ability to speak in different tones and be heard over greater distances or frequences), Scales (+3 Natural Armor).

Dark Absorbtion-
Absorbs and channels any unholy and dark energies into boosts of physical stats or as fuel for Runes. Any Dark or Unholy spells/abilites are absorbed. Effect of this spell can only reduce the effectiveness of that which is absorbed by 25% of it's maximum possible damage/effectiveness. Max Runic pool is equal to maximum mana pool. For each 4 points of Dark energy absorbed is turned into 1 Runic Power. 10 Runic points can increase Strength, Dexterety, Stamina, or Speed by 1 point for two rounds. For each minor rune in a spell costs 5 Runic Power, each major cost 10 Runic Power. No more than 4 minor and 3 major runes can be used in a Circle and require the Circle to be placed on a flat surface. Any Runes placed on the Caster require the normal costs but cut the maximum runic pool by the cost of the rune until cast.

Ancient Runes-
channels various spells and enhancements using runic spells and seals. Upon studing can create long lasting effects of both combat and utility by paying and maintaining equivilent costs. If a spell is requires Runic power that exceeds the user?s pool the spell the spell is then weakened by a proportionate amount.

Temporal Dislocation-
By expending great amounts of dark energies the User is able to shift their perception in the temporal stream by as much as four seconds forward. Using this, the User is able to have information of the near future flash into their mind and upon a successful dice roll + perception the information can be processed and used in combat offensively. A separate dice roll + Speed is needed to use this information for defensive measures. This spell lasts for 1d4/2 (rounded up) rounds. Mana cost of Perception x 4.

Bio: The Legend of Xanis reads "A member of a dying race known only as Dracah. To become one a human must have made contact with a dying dark spirit and allow its soul to live on with the human. Dracah then bear the traits of the demon that bonded. In this case Asheria the Dark was known for causing terror and pain to non-demons for encrouching upon what Asheria considered to be her territories. The human was known for being kind to any and all sentient life regardless of their intentions. The fated encounter came shortly after the elven nations finally brought down Asheria for the razing of forests. After the bonding the boy slowly became tainted by the dark influence going to commit similar atrocities. But, the Boy was able to limit the rage only on Combatants or those who insult him by strict warrior standards. To end the conflict between them, the dracah challenged the Elven Royality after laying a swath of destruction to the palace. During the conflict the dracah was stunned by the beauty of one of the attendants which allowed the elven king a chance to lay a serious blow to him. In an act of desperation the Dracah prepared to bring down the palace with a final blow using The Rune Seal of Oblivion. By changing the last rune to the rune of Captivity rather than the rune of Darkness, the king then sealed the Dracah with his own magic. To keep the seal energized, the king linked it to the excess energies of hte palace lands. The sword, forged of demon fangs and dark magics the blade was stong enough to bring down the greatest warriors with but a touch. The armor listed is actually the manifested scales providing both armor and flexability. Only truly holy blades or devout spells have been known to penetrate the scales....but 20,000 years in captivity do wonders to weaken known powers. This limiting of powers has also allowed the Boy to regain a foothold over controlling these powers. Now with the Transistion of the Elven Island to the world of the humans has weakiened the seal enough for the end of captivity. Now allowed to roam, he seeks his sword and the redemption of his name: Vehx Zr deus Xanisia- "The Twinned Soul of the Dark"
A master in both the sword and rune he tends to bring the enemy into a open space then use his tail and sword to carve seals into the ground or surrounding areas then allowing to activate them at proper times in combat to both confuse and create openings for brute force trauma."
As noted, has a week spot for beautiful women. Most notable are any who can keep up in both combat and wit while being both beautiful and strong.
