Physical Description

Pre-cataclysm

Extremely muscular and bodybuilder like. His body was honed from all of the physical exhortation of being a soldier, and participating in the sports to the day, especially wrestling.

History

Childhood to early Adult

Domintanus Seneca was born around 4-6 B.C. in the city of Korinthos, Prefecture of Illyricum, Diocese of Macedonia, part of the, then expansive, Roman Empire. His Father was both a politician and an intellect. His family was not in want, and could afford the best of anything. Domitanus, had everything he wanted, but still felt his life lacking. When he was 10 he was introduced to the Gladiatorial Games, and drawn, like most young men and boys to the brutality of the sport. At the age of 13, through political ties of his father, he was allowed to speak to some of the Gladiators, sparking a kinship and a kind of mentor-ship with a particular warrior. This warrior fought for his release, and was granted it. Soon after, Domintanus father, though frowned upon, offered the retired warrior a position in his villa. Domitanus relationship with this individual grew, and he learned more about combat, and fighting. He soon entered into the Roman guard, excelled, and quickly raised up the ranks to a Centurion.

Adult

Domitanus had excelled up the ranks of the Roman guard, earning the title of Centurion, and consequently his own battalion of one hundred soldiers. Domitanus, had acquired a taste for Absinth, and consequently an addiction. Due to this, he was sent, as a punishment, to the Diocese of Judea. Here he was exposed to a cataclysmic event, that altered him forever.

Cataclysm

While in Judea, he was inadvertently exposed to unknown forces, which he describes as, the heavens and hell opening up and waging war. The resulting exposure to these forces changes his body, forcing upon him a mutation, granting him his powers.

The Goths

Domitanus lived for 250 years, within the Roman Empire, trying to hide himself and powers. However, he and his powers are, kind of difficult to hide and occasionally he has lost control of them. A cult within the Goth Empire, saw him as a god, and sought to use him, and tried. At the battle of Phillipi, the cult was able to trap Tanus, but wan unable to use him. They used magic and locked him away in an ice reliquary for 750 years.

Lost in Translation

Explores stumbled upon the reliquary, and inadvertently freed Tanus from his icy tomb. Upon awaking, weakened, and dazed he used his powers on the explorers, draining them of everything, killing them. He left his cave, and found himself standing in the year 2014, lost in translation. He was found by agents of UNTIL, and taken to a center where he -was- studied; where -he- studied and over time, decided to work with PRIMUS in an attempt to make amends for the lives he took. He is registered with ASPRA.

Powers

Fortitudio

Tanus, himself is like a capacitor, capable of storing and discharging strength, and physical resiliency. He does so by absorbing black matter from any solid object, and storing it within himself. As the object looses its black matter, it weakens, and starts to disintegrate. The more matter an object has, the more he can store within himself. He can then and use to stolen black matter to...

Enhance Strength

With this stored power he can lift on the order of the hundred of tons. (Ground state, 10 tons)

Enhanced Physical Resiliency

• With this stored power, he can withstand the force of a nuclear explosion at ground zero (ground state, bullets bounce off of him)
• Resistant to temperature extremes
• Resistant to radiation
• Doesn't need to breath, though his autonomic system still does so.

Enhanced Regeneration

With this stored power, he can regenerate himself. Including limbs, and organs.

Boon

Tanus can transfer those capacitoric reserves into other objects, and lifeforms, giving them, Fortitudio. However, the duration for those effects are, shorter, when he transfers the power.

Immortality

Tanus cannot age. He can, die, if given the correct circumstances, but cannot age. This is due to the black matter he absorbs from, just consuming food. It fills his capacitoric reserve in which the regeneration continues to heal his cells.

Construct

Tanus can call back the matter to make, small objects of, black matter. He uses this to construct his Gladius in combat when needed.

Dark Vision

Tanus can see in absolute darkness. It is not known why, but it has to do with his glowing retinas.

The Draw Back (Powers, have costs)

Addictive

Self

To Tanus, the bolstering effect gives him a power-rush and a surge of endorphins. It is highly addicting, and often struggles to stop using the power before the object is destroyed. On living objects, it will cause the cells to degenerate, bones to become brittle and even cause organ failure and death if he doesn't let go.

Others

When Tanus is using boon, the receiving party will have a power rush, and a surge of endorphins giving them a feeling of euphoria, and invincibility. This can be highly addictive and, when coming off of the power, is very unpleasant, riddled with withdrawal like symptoms.
