Greetings all! I have returned in a new incarnation, for those who are left that actually remember me (probably not many of you.... if any) Anywho, so I introduced a couple of new characters recently in the here is some helpful information on them both:
Malachi Nae-Anumin Age is unknown Race: It is known that he is at least somewhat descended of humans, what part is currently unknown. Rumors abound about his parentage. Some say that his mother was human, while his father was the Almighty himself (HAHA!) while others more realistically point to the possibility of a human/Archai parentage (the Archai were a mystic race, bound deeply to the Almighty in service, and as such gifted with strange and... almost divine abilities/magicks. Until their extinction a few hundred years ago they were unrivaled in the field of divine powers). If this is true, then Malachi is one of the last, if not THE last of his kind.
Occupation: Odd to include this, I know, but it requires a bit of explanation. Malachi is a mortal elected to the position of Conduit Sentinel. Essentially, this makes hie ageless, but not impervious, by any means. He can still get sick, he can still die from a flesh wound as easily as you or I. What it DOES mean for his abilities, and the like is that they are somewhat honed or increased a degree. As the CS, it is his duty to relay the will of the Almighty to His followers within the universe and see that it is carried out. Mostly, this involves acting as leader of a group know simply as the Powers, a group of demi-god like beings who essentially keep life as we know it running and on track. When not leading them, he wanders from plane to plane, planet to planet, place to place- an interstellar ranger if ever there was one.
As to the Order of the Lion's Heart: It is an Order that very few make it inot, but it is not exclusive to humans. Malachi founded it and heads it and brings in new candidates as he sees fit. Those who are valorious in battle, who act as true messengers of the Almighty in their actions are privy to candidacy and they act as Malachi's eyes and ears in the universe, solving problems when they can, and alerting him when they cannot.
One thing you will notice about Malachi is his eternally cheerful, hopeful disposition, and this has not soured in his VERY long life-span. Despite countless battles (believe you me, you do not ant to be his opponent in battle) and a lifetime of care and worry, he has found that the best way to keep going is to take life as it comes, to do what is laid before you, and to act in a way that is harmonious with life. Essentially, for those of you familiar with it, Malachi is pretty much a Taoist, lol.
