Seething Vengeance

By Jeddaven

• January 22, 2013




Age: 43

Gender: Male

Species: Unicorn

Appearance: Vengeance often wears armour similar to that of one of the Royal Guards of old, although the armour is a jet black and is complemented by chain-mail of the same colour and of a lighter metal underneath. He wears this armour since it was easy for him to obtain from the many dead Royal Guards without attracting too much attention.

Cutie Mark: Seething's cutie mark, although hidden by the severe discolouration on his rump, normally appears as a black pool of water with a perfectly smooth surface. It represents both his calmness and inclination towards darker magics. In particular, he is adept at both summing beasts of Tartarus to his side, and using magics related to mental manipulation and flame. His ultimate goal is to reach the power of Twilight Sparkle so that he can summon many massive creatures under his will, or at least open a hole to Tartarus in Equestria. He sees this as the easiest way to exterminate the leaders of the houses, something which he is still too weak to do.

Personality: Seething rarely shows much emotion, likely caused by the sapping effect the magics he toys with has in his mind. Rather than drive him to insanity, it removed many "positive" and "negative" emotions from his mind. In particular, he displays very few actual signs of happiness, sadness, excitement, or even mercy. He becomes increasingly lacking in emotion as his use of Tartarus continues. Seething Vengeance is not his original name, although he changed it to represent his hostile intentions towars the leaders of the six houses, although he has occasionally worked as a mercenary for House Whitegold. Despite this, he holds no loyalty to them, and especially despises houses that hold fact to their following of the two now missing Princesses.

Backstory: Seething Vengeance was raised by a noble family in Canterlot, under the birth name of Charming Tuxedo. His parents spoiled him from birth, but noticed that he didn't really quite enjoy spending time around other ponies, and he seemed to be less enthusiastic that most ponies. They were worried about their small colt, until his talent for magic was discovered. He began to utilize telekinesis and other basic magics properly at a young age, and was quickly enrolled in Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns.<br /> <br /> After departing the academy, Seething Vengeance retreated into hermitdom so that he could further his studies of magic. His powers continued to grow, but he soon grew bored of standard unicorn magics.He began to study tartarus in secret, and the evil magic that it was related to. He managed to avoid the watchful eye of the Equestrian Diarchy, and practiced his summoning and flame spells in secret as Equestria slowly plunged into darkness. The Mane Six fascinated him, though. If not for them, Equestria would have fallen long ago.<br /><br /> But, those opinions of the Mane Six quickly changed, as vengeance realized how wrong he was. Not only was he surprised by the dissapearance of the Celestial Sisters, but also the way the Mane Six so quickly turned upon each other when Equestria began to collapse around them. Vengeance would have to act swiftly if he wished to escape their eyes, and avoid being forced into the service of any of the Mane Six. He barely managed to escape Canterlot alive, only escaping due to armor he had stolen from a royal guard he had previously slain. For some time, he took refuge in Struttgart before fleeing to Baltimate by way of sea. He currently wander Equestria, gathering allies and growing his power in hopes of eventually killing the Mane Six.
