Concerning Ifrits

Xaphan is a being from another dimension, called into this plane by the use of magic and her real name.

She is deeply connected with the fire element, it is in her very nature an body. Called from a plane known only as the 'other place' Xaphan was summoned by a young mage in this day and age. His motivations remain unknown to this day; he had made a mistake in summoning her.

One of the runes marking the boundary of her summoning circle had a flaw, one the Ifrit Xaphan quickly took advantage of to escape the prospect of being controlled yet again. She killed the mage without hesitation, now all that remains of him is a charred corpse in his former home.

The beings from the plane known only as the 'other place' are not truly demons. They have simply been classed in similar terms due to the nature of their summoning. One only requires a beings true name and the knowledge of how to draw the proper summoning circles and you may call on said being. As such, they are not inherently evil; however experiences have often tainted them to this plane.

Time does not work the same in the 'other place' as it does here, this make Xaphan's age something of a mystery, even to herself.

Freedom

Killing the mage responsible for calling her here should have sent her home. However, she found herself trapped. The reason as of yet she does not know, she does however believe something must have been different about the way he had summoned her. Perhaps some spell holds her yet, perhaps she must complete some task to return to her home. She has yet to find out.

To this day, Xaphan finds herself spending her time in the human world. Meeting people and other beings know lingering in this plane; making it the proverbial nexus of places above even Babylon perhaps.

Xaphan chooses not to give out her real name. It would be a very dangerous thing for her, so she uses an alias. She will tell you whatever name suits her at the time, however she has grown fond of Kenna.

Her nature, her past

We are all the sum of our memories, our experiences.

As such, the Iffrit known as Xaphan is a fiery, angry being at times. She has suffered much at the hands of mages; growing to dislike and even stronger than that to loath their very existence. In actuality, she is calm and curious. She loves to learn, to find interesting things in this world. Often, more of a watcher than a doer.

She was first summoned in ancient Egypt, pressed into service as some weapon; a tool. They gave her name, gave her form and something to comply to. Perhaps, before they named her she did not even exist in the first place. This is the nature of a name for a being like Xaphan, it holds power over her; runs within her very essence. She will not tell you her real name by choice, not without complete trust which from her would be something hard to earn. Especially if you are human.

Her fiery nature makes her lean towards those heated emotions. Anger, hate and rage flow from her easily; burning those unlucky or foolish enough to be caught in the blaze. She does however also embody those warm emotions encompassing passion, love and warmth. Those things so easily crushed out of her by those that would seek to impose their will upon her, she has however never forgotten.

Throughout history, the Ifrit Xaphan and many of her kind were summoned and bound into service by mages and magic. She has suffered at the hands of many, more recently the power hungry mage Luther Black. Her real name is noted in a few ancient texts, briefly described in horrid detail are her abilities and weaknesses. Information to those mages that would pretend themselves her Master.

Fire is Power

Xaphan carries the nature and the strength of fire. She is fire, it is part of her.

As such, her body is made of elemental flame and energy. Wrapped in a black, sometimes oil-like skin the Ifrit is molten fire. Her blood has the consistency of liquid metal and the temperature to match. Her dark frame is capable of withstanding any temperature on Earth, she has an innate resistance to fire and heat. Though that resistance does not extend down in the other direction, she doesn't ever seem bothered by the cold. Snow, ice and the environment don't seem to phase the fiery being.

She is lithe, strong and agile. Capable of using unique abilities to control her element into ranged attacks. The vicious being is also found of creating sharp weapons upon her wrist, using her own heated blood no less. Though she has never been trained, her supernatural strength and agility make her a good melee fighter in a pinch. Xaphan does prefer to fight at a distance, using her grace and muscled legs to keep her distance and simply burn her foes into nothing more than ash.

An excerpt from the book, Libro alius locus;

Being two thousand and eighty four.

Summoning name Xaphan.

Being is willful, strongly connected with the fire element and more than willing to utilize it.

Displays disdain for being controlled, for being summoned in the first place.

Do not believe anything the being tells you, it will say anything to put you at ease. Incredibly intelligent, works towards freeing herself which necessitates either forcing her release or simply killing the controlling mage. Do not underestimate her anger. Do not ever tell her your real name; she will use it against you. With the proper precautions, the being is a very effective agent of the wise mage. Capable of many tasks, her intelligence makes her suited to other roles even with her obvious ability as a weapon.

Being appears as a creature of flame encompassed by dark skin, it is almost oil-like. Chooses to arm herself with sharp vicious implements about her wrists; do not give her the opportunity to use them on you. Capable of melee combat as well as projecting an immense amount of heat and flame. Also, being appears capable of performing magic. Certainly magics connected to the fire element.
