ContextI was 13 years old when I initially came up with this character design. The character has, aside from the normal form, 6 other forms. It will be explained. In any case, I'm not sure what I was on when I came up with this character. I guess being young has its perks. Anyway. Here we go.
If anyone has their doubts, I literally wrote those when I was 13, and I have only edited some very minor things.
By the way, all the images can be found in this album:

Tialys Matriette Tialys KatoriTITLE: The Ephemeral Desire / PRELUDE MOON
GENDER: Male/Female
MAIN WEAPONRY:
- Kouma'ai Izayoi - Katana
- Sanzenrakuen - Dagger
- Kurorouken - Agito Katana
BACKGROUND: Unbeknownst to himself, a certain defect in his body causes him to change disposition and looks when under different wavelengths of moon light as he goes world-hopping. Only his mother and father know this, but as they're presumably dead, no one knows and can provide a proper explanation. He was born as Tialys Matriette, but after a certain incident that occurred, he and his family changed surnames to Katori. Furthermore, Tialys is actually the descendants of a line of families that were chosen as "Chainkeepers," i.e the people that determined/managed the fates of people's lives. Anyone, except their own. The Chainkeepers are now supposedly died out, but Tialys exists solely to extend the bloodline. Somehow, his inherent looks are helping to achieve this, albeit to the extreme. He was taught in the way of the blade by his father, and after 4 years of training (since 10) he had become quite well-versed.
When the Saint Legion, a so-called "evil organization," was established, they had decided to, for whatever reason, raid Tialys' homeworld through a Dimensional Warp that conveniently existed near their place of operations. When they were attacked by Saint Legion, Tialys was captured (they couldn't KILL young people, obviously...? Right?). He was captured at 14, where he was kept and subject to sexual and physical abuse by inmates and wardens alike, and was also the subject of various experiments that included, but may not be limited to:
1) A test for immortality serum, which worked, but had deadly side effects - the decay of the soul and essence of humanity
2) The ability to alter chromosomes, which also worked, and didn't seem to interfere at all with his wavelength reactions, nor was that ever discovered during the experiment
The experiment took place when he was 18, so that's why he would never look older than he was, but was actually much older than that. Eventually, at 29, he found a way to escape, and decided to hone his skills to exact his revenge. He came across a large dojo of sorts called "Youseikyou," where he managed to gain entry even though he wasn't actually a fairy, through what the inhabitants called "charm, intelligence and ultimately a want to improve" and began intensive training of his magical potency, abilities to use two weapons with extreme precision, and other skills. It was there he encountered a man. A man he found out was called Xeno. Apparently, he was intrigued by Tialys's method of fighting, and he challenged Tialys to a spar. In the end, it was a draw, to both of their surprises.
After training and staying for 14 years, he had such a strong bond with this Xeno character that they exchanged their histories. In the end, Tialys was being spied on by the nefarious Saint Legion who had a project that needed "knowledge of the universe." They captured Xeno, which angered Tialys to no extent. He left, now an honorary member, and was ONE PISSED OFF GUY and was welcome to return whenever, provided it didn't move from its location, in which case he'd have to happen upon it again.
In any case, Tialys used his newfound skills to stage a one-man assault against the entire Saint Legion, where he indeed managed to bring the entire organization down to its foundations, slaying nearly anyone he came across. There were survivors, but Tialys was too tired after that to find them. He also began his search for Xeno, but never actually found him. Little did he know that one of those survivors would eventually be the founder of an organization called the Wacko Warriors, which he decided to join for whatever crazed reason, probably because he wanted to have a purpose in life, but that was a huge lie within the Wacko Warriors. He ended up becoming the 4th Pillar (one of the leading heads) through an election. He was also a high-ranking member of the quick-to-fail Fragment Order.
At this moment, Tialys is trying to figure out what exactly he is, and why he exists. He also wants to get into a relationship, but is having trouble doing so. It's depressing him for some reason.
SPECIAL ABILITIES:
- Dual-wielding of nearly anything feasible - Due to training, Tialys can duel wield nearly any combination of swords within reason.
- Moonlit Reaction - Tialys reacts heavily with moonlight of different wavelengths, change in disposition, and eventually, personality as well.
- Magic - Tialys is capable of casting spells, but can only cast high-end supportive spells.
- Chromosome Adaptation - Tialys can alter his chromosomes to change his gender.
- Manipulation of the Fates - Tialys, being a Chainkeeper, can control the fate of other people except his own. He rarely uses this because his ability is not that great, after most of his soul had been decayed through the immortality serum.
- Articulate Charm - Tialys can use almost anything at his disposal to create a lasting impression on people... Don't know what this can do in a practical situation, though.
- Rebirth - Tialys can use this to change back into a full human for 48 hours, doing so in an extravagant manner reminiscent of a phoenix, even appearing similar an anthropomorphic one. This is also extremely similar, if not the same, as one of Tialys's final moon reactions - the Throne Moon.
FINAL TECHNIQUE
Luna Errata: Tialys creates double-images of himself (4 of them) which run at the enemy and start attacking the target in a synchronized manner, which involves many, many cuts. Soon, the area becomes dark and a cream yellow moon can be seen. Then the copies and Tialys itself start mauling the target with their weapons, causing the moon to be stained red with the blood of the hapless, unfortunate victim.

Black LaceTITLE: Rose of Devotion / 1ST MOON
GENDER: Female
MAIN WEAPONRY:
- Thorn AK66 - Machine Gun
- Thorn .6mm - Pistol
- Thorn BLD77 MkII - Rifle/Sniper
- Craven Slave - Greatsword
BACKGROUND: Black Lace is a feisty lady who happens to be a very good sharpshooter and gunslinger. It is unknown of her origins, but Black Lace is the form that Tialys happens to assume the most. Black Lace is very laidback and likes to consider life as something that should be embraced - after all, you only exist once, right? In any case, it's known that Black Lace is wanted by mercenaries everywhere, but when Black Lace encounters them, the mercenaries either die, or are too shaken to tell the tale of the encounter.
SPECIAL ABILITIES:
- Gunslinging - Black Lace is extremely accurate with fire-arms and is able to use two guns at the same time.
- Sharpshooting - Black Lace is also extremely accurate and precise with a rifle, meaning she can make the shot that counts.
- Sleight of Hand - She is very dextrous with her hands. 'Nuff said.
FINAL TECHNIQUE
Tear of Resolution - Black Lace shoots the opponent with all her firearms (listed below):
- Thorn AK66 - Machine Gun
- Thorn UZIS - Machine Gun
- Silver Thorn - Semi-automatic Pistol
- Thorn EX09 - Shotgun
- Thorn XP01 - Shotgun
- Pollen XEX - Bazooka
- Thorn .6mm - Pistol
- Thorn BLD77 MkII - Rifle/Sniper
- Thorn BLD19 MkII - Rifle/Sniper
Before tearing the enemy in half with her greatsword, Craven Slave.

Sylastar LenTITLE: Vengeful Star / 2ND MOON
GENDER: Male
MAIN WEAPONRY:
- Sieve Gradius / Saber
- Radiant Gatling / Machine Gun
- Meillandine / Shadow Panther Familiar
BACKGROUND: Sylastar Len is what the legends call "Destroyer in Disguise," as an innocent being who has intents of malice and destruction. In fact, Sylastar is simply just a trapped soul in a kid's body who wants revenge on the person who killed his lover. He has a rather sharp tongue and won't hesitate to speak with dripping acid. Despite this, he has good intentions and is actually fairly submissive and obedient. He has powers that no one has ever imagined before, and won't hesitate to use them if you piss him off, however. He is often mistaken as a girl.
SPECIAL ABILITIES
- Magic - Sylastar has knowledge and the capability to cast very high-end spells.
- Sword Mastery - Sylastar is quite exceptional with light blades.
- Manipulation - Sylastar can use his appearance to manipulate people to do his bidding.
FINAL TECHNIQUE
Corona Finale - Sylastar invokes upon the power of the very sun itself to strengthen his blade, before calling upon showering stars to engulf his enemies and then subsequently enveloping them in burning flame from the sun, our very sustenance, itself.

Midi EglandineTITLE: Rose of Ferocity / 3RD MOON
GENDER: Female
MAIN WEAPONRY
- Kuroibaraen / Axe
- Ryuusatsui / Spear
- Kamisatsui / Spear
BACKGROUND: Midi doesn't like to be called by her first name, and threatens people to call her by her last name, Eglandine. She's very fierce and tends to act before thinking, much like your typical musclebound idiot. However, despite this mentality, she is not totally stupid and possesses logic and common sense. You just don't see it a lot since she's killing things half the time. Tialys would like to assume Eglandine's form more, since it gives him an excuse to get rid of the people who've tormented him in his life, but beggars can't be choosers.
SPECIAL ABILITIES
- Ignore Weight - Midi's massive strength means she can carry absolutely anything, despite how heavy it may look.
- Metal? - Midi can break through most metals with her bare hands, except really tough alloys or naturally radioactive metals/non-metals.
- Blurry - Midi can attack at a rapid speed, but she doesn't normally do this a lot.
FINAL TECHNIQUE
Tsukinagareheki (Moon Flowing Splitter) - Midi utilizes the power of the sky to charge her weapon with energy, then summons an "image" of the moon, and then assaults the enemy with kicks and punches before slicing the victim in half, ultimately slicing the image in half as well.

ArstroemeriaTITLE: The Elusive Rose / ECSTASY MOON
GENDER: Male
MAIN WEAPONRY
- Radiant Actuelmir / Spear
- Radiant Zammelir / Greatsword
- Renai Kyuuketsuki / Katana
- Reiga Moe / Staff
- Ayuraidobolg / Mace
BACKGROUND: His nickname is Arstroe, because for some people, that is too difficult to pronounce. Alstroemelia is a very androgynous male that is one of the people who can crossdress and get away with it (aka Jun Watarase syndrome). When he was younger, he was forced to be a part of the sex trafficing trade, for some reason he can't fathom. He's actually a lot older than he looks. He is often dateraped and was firstly at the physical age of 7. It has of course, shattered what little he had of his sanity, and is very emotionally unstable and physical unstable. He seeks someone who can protect him, though he can very much protect himself if need be.
SPECIAL ABILITIES
Magic - Alstroemelia is very proficient at casting magic of healing and support of all levels.
?
FINAL TECHNIQUE
- Last Word~Deathly Seduction - Alstroemelia acts very vulnerable, and when the victim tries to get close, the victim gets literally beaten to death into a bloody pulp with Ayuraidobolg, a large, spiked/thorned mace.

Infernal SweetTITLE: Ashes of Rebirth / THRONE MOON
GENDER: Male
MAIN WEAPONRY
- His barehands and legs
BACKGROUND: Infernal Sweet can also be considered synonymous with the form Tialys assumes when he utilizes Rebirth. Infernal Sweet has two states, his normal, humanoid state and his Phoenix state where the changes are more evident in his more bird-like appearance and massively enlarged eyes. He's quite rational and doesn't like fighting that much. When he does fight, he fights using his barehands and his legs, no weapons or anything. It's not like he's weak or anything though, he's quite devastating in true fact. He's more of a pacifist character though. Information regarding his origins is unknown.
SPECIAL ABILITIES:
- Ryuuen Hououtenshouken - Infernal Sweet's martial art technique. It is solely based on using quick, lightning-fast motions causing lots of damage through multi-hit attacks that don't require much power.
- Awaken - Infernal Sweet can activate his Phoenix state and gain heightened senses and eyesight.
- Foresight - Infernal Sweet has unnatural ability to predict movement and attack, making him very hard to hit. The one weakness is water.
FINAL TECHNIQUE:
Bakusou Ryuuen Hououtengazan - Infernal Sweet exhausts the majority of his oxygen supply by applying all of it into this powerful attack composing of an insanely long flurry of rapid kicks and punches, all empowered by a blazing inferno. It is very hard to avoid, but after using it, Infernal Sweet can no longer sustain his energy and collapses, reverting back into Tialys. Infernal Sweet can no longer be invoked for at least a week if it has been accessed through Rebirth.

Tialys Syliana MatrietteGENDER: Male (disputed to be hermaphroditic)
MAIN WEAPONRY:
- Mikan'aihoujin / 未完愛砲陣 - Naginata
- Anki / 暗喜 - Katana
- Iylis Nanna - Sword 1
- Meyr Ereshkigal - Sword 2
BACKGROUND: The true form of Tialys, most likely evoked through his current being as a state of reincarnation. For all intents and purposes, he will be referred to as Syliana to avoid confusion in names (Present!Tialys and Original!Tialys). He was born of Ninseim (mother) and Nininhat (father). Syliana was raised to become one of the finest warriors of his time, which indeed, he nearly came close to doing so, and also somehow causing the monarch's daughter to fall in love with him in the process. Apparently, the king/monarch within Syliana's homeworld disapproved of this relation and had Syliana murdered/assassinated. Much to the king's daughter's - Iylnanna's - grief and utter dismay, she then shut herself out of society for much of her life. Syliana was then buried beneath a giant, yet old and worn statue that was to be of the chief deity of the homeworld pantheon worshipped - Eitemnaki. Every day, Iylnanna would only leave to see the grave of Syliana, always shedding tears of sadness, of sorrow, of the ultimate grief and trauma. In the end, her tears caused a "miracle to occur." The fateful visit of the human embodiment of Eitemnaki himself granted Iylnanna's wish of resurrecting Syliana for her undying faith and her undying will to stay by the side of the one she loved. And there was an unexpected gift - Eitemnaki granted Syliana immortality. In the end, Iylnanna forged a rebellion against her father and usurped the throne, assisted by Syliana's will fuelled by vengeance and the general population who did end up disliking Iylnanna's father's conduct become more and more corrupt over the years. Syliana and Iylnanna then ruled for a long time, until Iylnanna passed of old age (98). Still remaining beautiful. Syliana still lived on, now aware of his immortality. He grieved for Iylnanna and would often visit her resting place, a beautiful sanctuary located nearby. Syliana then had two swords forged for himself, one to symbolize his love and the other his passion. Eventually, over thousands of years, Syliana grew weak of defending his homeland and was visited by Eitemnaki again, allowing one wish. Syliana asked to be sealed into a statue so he could be reunited with Iylnanna in the afterlife. Of course, Eitemnaki granted due to Syliana's eternal dedication and gratitude.
... ... ...
Yet, the embodiment of Syliana lives on generation after generation, this encounter with Eitemnaki paved the way for his creation of the Chainkeepers to uphold the ideals of Syliana and Iylnanna, granting them the ability to control the fate of those they see fit.
...And that is how Tialys of the present, came to existence... And in the end, he can invoke the power of the pinnacle of his ancestry.
SPECIAL ABILITIES:
Aeus Utnapishtim - The blessing of Eitemnaki grants Syliana immortality and increased tolerance to the curses of the dead.
Elunis Astarte - Syliana's fighting style, using two swords at once in a series of exquisite, and fast movements to confuse the enemy and then dive in for the attack.
Rage of Ishtar - Under times of immense stress, Syliana's senses and thinking are greatly heightened, thus his reflexes are faster.
Origin of Magnificence - He hath acquired the knowledge of the gods themselves, in doing so, this one shalt prevail over all. (in other words, he has proficiency in nearly all types of magic)
FINAL TECHNIQUE:
Taikyokentai Anki / 太虚健体暗喜 (trans: Anki, Body of the Universe) - Syliana's katana, Anki, gathers cosmic energy reminiscent of the gods themselves and proceeds to slice the enemy to bits. First, there is no effect, but the enemy then explodes in a burst of holy light.
