wrathofwar[ CHARACTER INFORMATION ]
Name: War
Age: Ancient (Age is given, but easily older than man itself)
Gender: Male
Canon: Darksiders
Timeline: Post Game
Background: http://darksiders.wikia.com/
Personality: War is the very embodiment of his namesake and the youngest of the Four Horsemen. Against his enemies, he will show them no mercy, no matter what they are. Human, demon, angel, he doesn’t discriminate and he will treat them all equally. He has no problem dispatching them in the most brutal and vicious way that he possibly can. He has even torn the still beating hearts from his enemies. Though he only did so because he needed them to achieve his goal, he still didn’t bat an eyelash at having to do so. This savagery that he possesses makes him probably the most feared of all of the Horsemen.
But out of all of the Horsemen, War is the most easily angered. He has even lashed out at his Brothers and Sister in his rage and nearly killed them before he was brought down. In the past, this anger was far less controlled than it is now. War’s wrath itself is something to be feared. Those that incur that wrath don’t last long in the world after, unless they find some way to bargain with him or escape from him. Bargaining is something easier to do than escaping, but that is only if you have something he finds worthwhile or if the person themselves is more useful to him alive than dead.
Nowadays, War displays a much more quiet and reserved demeanor than he did in the past. Sometimes he will only speak when he has something to say. He doesn’t seem as if he is as easily angered as he was in the past, but that is not entirely true. He is just better at holding it in, rather than immediately acting upon it. Though flashes of that anger that he has within him is still visible when it is being provoked. It is times like that when the one provoking it should tread lightly.
War appears to lack any fear at all, though this is likely a trait that all of the Horsemen share especially given their level of power and task that they were given it to accomplish. Though even without that power, he has faced down enemies who’s size was much greater than his own, and who’s power may have even been greater than his own at the time. Underestimating him would always cause their downfall.
War can be very forward and blunt. He’d rather he or whoever he is talking to be as direct as possible. He has no trouble with speaking his mind or telling someone that they are getting on his nerves. He also doesn’t like to play games and is very much “no nonsense”. He hates being lied to or used and manipulated in anyway. Doing either of those things is a pretty easy way to get or his bad side of making him angry.
Despite all of this, War himself is very honorable. The most honorable between his siblings. He has a strong sense of duty and justice. He is willing to do most anything to hold up both and preserve balance in the world. Like when the apocalypse was mistakenly started, he wanted to punish those that had done it, since it wasn’t time for the End War yet. When he faced down a creature that told War they could give him anything he wanted, he asked only if they could undo what has been done so that mankind could have their world back. They couldn’t, so War quickly dispatched them.
War doesn’t kill unjustly. The being that he is facing has to have done something deserving of it. This could be them trying to fight him or trying to stop him from doing something that he wants to do, but if they are truly innocent then he won’t take their lives. War is also a very determined person. When he sets his mind upon something, he will try his best to see it through until the end.
He also has loyalty to those that he deem as his allies. Loyalty that wouldn’t allow him to betray them. That is unless they have done something to lose his trust, such as the Charred Council whom he had a begrudging loyalty to to begin with. War was one of their messengers until he found out that they were using and manipulating him. When he discovered that, he didn’t hesitate to break the hold that they had on him and turn against them.
The people that he trusts the most in the world would have to be his siblings. Them as well as his Horse, Ruin. In the time that he has been alive, he has spent the most time with them. And as he trusts them, they trust him as well. Even if they do clash in ways that most siblings wouldn’t.

War's soul looks something like this: http://img692.imageshack.us/
(Weapon Form) / Ability:
Weapon Form – War’s weapon form is that of his Chaoseater. It is a large sword, just a little taller than War himself. On the side of it, it has wailing faces adorned upon it.
http://img844.imageshack.us/
Weapon Ability – War’s weapon ability is the generation of flames. The sword take his meister’s and his soul energy, and using that, it is able to spew out fire from the mouths adorned on the side of it. The fire it creates will not burn the meister or the weapon, but it can burn kishin eggs. The meister also gains total control over the flames, but they themselves can’t move the flames more than 30ft away. War himself can exert control over the flames while in his weapon form, but his range is only 6ft. If War's meister wants to, they can make the sword spew enough flames from the sword to engulf that 30ft area. Controlling and manipulating the flames also slowly drains on soul energy.
The burn damage from the fire grows as War and his meister grow stronger. Weak kishin eggs can be burned to ash when engulfed by the flames. On the stronger ones, the flames will cause damage the longer it is allowed to stay on them and can eventually kill them if not put out with the obvious exception being a Witch(Because the ability, while fire, is still made of soul energy), at least until War and his meister grow significantly in strength.
While the fire is made out of soul energy, it can be extinguished just like normal flames through water, being smothered, ect. Returning to his normal form will cause any flames generated by War in his weapon form to extinguish too. The flame ability cannot be used while inside large bodies of water either or areas that lack oxygen.
War’s weapon ability has a few different applications that it can be used for. Each requires a different level of skill or resonance for the meister to be able to use them effectively, because as those levels grow, so does their ability to manipulate the flames.
At low resonance, the meister can use their ability to control the flames to coat the blade of War’s weapon form to set it on fire and heat the blade and do extra damage to those that are hit by it. The flames on the blade can also be whipped off of the blade in an psychical arc like attack, doing this, those flames will travel up to 40ft away from the meister before extinguishing, unless they catch something on fire.
At medium level resonance, the meister can make the flames coat their body to add upon an extra layer of defense. This can also be done in conjunction with coating the blade in flames.
The feat that takes the most practice and highest level of resonance that can be done with the ability is condensing the flames. This can be used to do such a thing as surrounding the meister and an enemy within a circle of flames. Condensing those flames could make it more difficult for the enemy to pass through them or for someone to come in, depending on their level of strength. Significantly weaker enemies will be unable to pass through or burnt up completely by the wall.
The ability can also be used to create a secondary sword made completely from fire. Using the condensing of flames with their ability to control the fire, a sort of fire puppet can be made and controlled at a distance. Though manipulating its movements can be difficult to master and will drain soul energy at a rapid pace to maintain it.
All of the feats will slowly drain soul energy to use or maintain them. And as the meister and War grow stronger, then so will each feat that they can perform with the ability and their rate of energy depletion will lessen over time.
