III. Natural Abilities
Primary Skill: Enhanced Senses
-The stories of demons have been told so often, it is hard to separate truth from fiction anymore. One of the few things to remain a constant, are the enhanced abilities that bless the children of the night. Vision, smell, touch, taste, and hearing. Each one improved one hundred fold. Vision sharp by day.....sharper by night. The faintest cut on a soul over a mile away becomes like the luring aroma of fresh bloomed roses. Every fiber of silk becomes familiar to the skimming touch of passing fingers. And while the softest of whispers fail to escape, sweetness can be found in even the most bland of wines by the tempting tongue. But it is not simply the basic sense that are enhanced. This gift extends to voice tones and mind play. As the rumors say "Beware testing your will with that of the night...the temptress is a merciless void of hunger."
Secondary Skill: Enhanced Physical Attributes
-As stated before, it has always been hard to tell myth from fact when it comes to demons. A second truth to their kind:Increased Physical Attributes. Demon DNA is a marvelous thing, and immune to disease. But where its true strength lies is the changes it makes within the body. Stronger in that of pure bloods, the metabolism and cell division rates are absurdly high. Meaning Demons are almost always fit and heal exceedingly fast.
As a result of being fit (most of the time; there are of course gluttons in every race), Demons are graced with uncommon speed and strength. Though when compared to that of Dark Elves, Elves, or Orcs the difference is not that much.
IV.Techniques.Unholy Summons
-When there is nothing but time laid into your lap, one must find things to occupy that time with. For Dante, the dark arts of summoning demonic beings for his own dark pleasures became overly entertaining. What began as imps and goblin slowly evolved into beasts of horrible appearances. In his studies, he came across one summoning in particular that would later become closely associated with his name. Unholy Summons deals with those of the dark who can not take on a physical form in the world. By using a simplistic symbol; consisting of a circle with a triangle within an eye within the triangle, a dark presence is summoned within the confines of the symbol. This symbol, usually painted on the back of the caster's hand will illuminate its age old design upon the flooring or region of the caster's choosing. Once a soul is caught within the symbol, there is little it can do to escape. It is within this symbol, that the captured soul sees what truly lies in the cold embrace of death and is greeted with rotting fangs and claws that rip at flesh with an unparalleled hunger. Used rarely, it is an uncommon casting and only a select few have had the pleasure of witnessing its power...and living to tell about it.
Smoke
-Some prefer shadows, others mist. But smoke, the ability to transform ones entire physical being into nothing more than a concentrated cloud of smoke is truly a skill found useful in a time of hunting and mindless slaying. Rather easy, even a novice demon deluded by the mating with humans could master a similar skill.
Demonic Essence
-The game of seduction is one well played by those of the Vampyric & Demon Race. And while the race of faerie have the upper hand in terms of being able to completely make a soul succumb to the primal desire to mate..Demons have an alluring essence to them that draws the victim in without overpowering their will entirely. There is no fun in having a female set on simply rutting after all.
Dance of the Fallen
-While it is not viewed as traditional form of sorcery, Dance of the Fallen is in fact magic using gestures rather than incantations or simple words. By acting out this hypnotic sway of hips and body, one can slowly gain power over the targeted soul for a brief period of time. Much like placing a suggestion in the mind, Dance of the Fallen does not override the individual's willpower. It merely redirects it, creating thoughts and possible actions not before considered. By employing this technique, assassinations are usually carried out under the watchful eye of a Lord or Lady's erotic dancer or a desired servant of the evening depending on the situation. Many political figures are known to keep exotic beauties of both genders on their arms and in their beds, the rest is merely a shift of the hip and a well placed desire in the right individual.
IIIII.Combat ( When disarmed):
Ba Gua Zhang: Simply put, "Eight Trigram Palm." An internal martial art which emphasizes the use of internal strength in close fighting with circular footwork and body movements. Baguazhang, or Bagua, is based on the Classic of Changes or Yi Jing (I-Ching) and is well known for its fast, evasive footwork, intricate coiling and numerous palm strikes. Baguazhang contains an extremely wide variety of techniques, including various strikes (with palm, fist, elbow, fingers etc), low kicks, joint locking techniques, throws, and distinctively evasive circular footwork. The Baguazhang practitioner are known for their ability to "flow" in and out of the way of objects. This is where the theory of being able to fight multiple attackers came into view.
Strict Baguazhang teaches that if you are to defeat more than one opponent you must first learn to quickly eliminate an opponent with fast and effective joint locks, knockouts, breaks, and other form of physical trauma.
