Personality:

Varidun is a man of science in the worst ways, going out of his way to find living specimens to test his theories. He's a cold, methodical creature, nearly completely resolute in his goals and ideals, never changing them or veering from his purpose. Varidun considers himself a proud member of demon kind despite his less-than demonic nature, seeing his race as the dominant force in the universe without question. He would never mention such things, however, seeing it as pointless to spout off about something so irrelevant to the situation at hand. This demon is cold, calculating and practical, seeing no dishonor in fleeing to regroup should the situation call for it. He fights are merely to collect data that would serve in the construction of the creatures he envisions. Varidun respects stronger demon authority much as he should, feeling absolutely no shame in bowing before his superiors and referring to them by their respective titles. One final thing about Varidun: He is not above self-experimentation should it increase his power as evidenced by the scars around his eyes. He will readily tinker with mechanical additions to increase his own power once he's certain such a procedure would serve him.  He doesn't favor hand-to-hand combat at all, preferring to fight at a range with his various magical attacks. This isn't to say he won't participate in a fist-fight if he can't get some distance.

However, he often comes off as polite and sometimes kind as a sort of cover, hiding his true intentions behind a mask of decency. It helps him get around and avoid fights he'd rather not be caught in as of yet.

Appearance:
Varidun stands at nearly 10 feet tall and weighs a flat 100 pounds, his exceptionally light weight for his size made possible by his unique demon physique. His body is strange in the fact it seems to combine both humanoid and skeletal physiology, his limbs seemingly entirely made of bone where his torso feels flat and fleshy despite the fact it being made of bone as well. His face seems a combination of both features as well, possessing no nose-hole and having a mouth with functional lip-like parts despite his head apparently built like a raw skull. He possesses no tangible eyes, rather lights that glow in the center of the sockets (which are manipulated akin to eyebrows) that glow their corresponding colors depending on the attack he uses.

Varidun Wears a black lab-coat and brown kahki-like pants along with black leather dress-shoes and a striped turtle-neck who's neck indeed seems incredibly loose, perhaps because he possesses no throat.

Backstory:

Varidun was born on Makai with only one purpose: Serve demon kind. His parents were unknown to him, killed when he was young as they served in battle. The skeletal boy was known among his kind for his exceptional intellect and chilling cold nature, let alone his proficiency in magic. At very young ages, Varidun had become an astute practitioner in the art, summoning waves of explosive mist and creating clones of himself out of the same material with seemingly no effort... Where a good number of demons focused on their strength and manipulation of Ki, Varidun out-thought and out-fought his challengers, twisting their minds with his manipulation of the alien force. As he matured into adulthood, his cold nature thawed only a bit towards the demonic Hierarchy, seeing it as a quite functional set-up to contain the battle-hungry race. Specifically, he had a certain approval of their highest members, those that represented their kind and constructed their reputation.

He served as a soldier for much of his young adult life, being sent to squash descent among some demonic circles or destroy minor annoyances to the kingdom. All of which he did gladly, not at all displaced by the grunt-work he was assigned.

Eventually, though, he grew tired of the constant hunts for minor threats, the thrill of serving his kind growing less and less potent. He sought... bigger jobs... Ones that would not only protect his kingdom, but against bigger threats rather than just pets... To gain the attention of his superiors, Varidun began ending his missions within days of receiving them and completing them with distinction. Eventually, not only his name became known among the lower demonic soldiers, but his abilities as well... Even his superiors had began to take notice as he had intended. Rather pleased with his work, Varidun was given a "special" assignment, to go to a certain gem in the North Galaxy and prepare it for demon-kind, no matter how long it may take... Earth was the name of his target...

His first days on Earth were ones of wonder and distaste. He seemed rather impressed with the amount of flora and fauna that dotted this planet from the humans to the moss to the gummy-fleshy things that waddled about there. On the other hand, He found a distinct displeasure with the culture and the lack of unity that was apparently praised on this planet, how little these races seemed to serve each other and instead only themselves. Varidun truly felt the higher-ups had made the right choice sending him here... this planet required immediate study and order.

Decades passed and the Demon found himself no closer to succeeding in his mission than he had when he started. He had soon discovered that not only were the races of this planet diverse and plenty, but their strengths as well... What he thought was strong before seemed like little more than ants to these giants of power... Instead of striking him with fear, though... this only strengthened Varidun's resolve. This planet was full of disorder. He was there to correct it... The size of the mess meant nothing to the man here to clean it up.
