A demonic amalgamation drawn from the nightmares that haunt every sentient mind, the thing known as 
Nocturne has become a primordial force of pure terror. It is liquidly chaotic in aspect, a faceless shadow with cold eyes and armed with wicked-looking blades. After freeing itself from the spirit realm, Nocturne now continually descends upon the waking world, to feed on the kind of fear that can only thrive in true darkness.

Background[]
(TBA)
Appearance[]
Nocturne is made of pure, inky-black darkness, only vaguely humanoid with a head and two arms. Its fingers appear clawed and its head is featureless save for two solid white eyes. From the waist down, its body seems to dissolve into a plume of black smoke.
It is usually seen wearing armor, either purple or red with a gray trim. It wears a breastplate and two large, spiked pauldrons. Its signature weapons are a pair of massive blades attached to either forearm, both viciously curved with numerous points.
Personality[]
Nocturne is a demonic entity that thrives on the nourishment derived from fear induced by nightmares. This malevolent being possesses an intimate understanding of individuals' deepest fears, allowing him to expertly exploit and manipulate their vulnerabilities. In its pursuit of sustenance, Nocturne revels in the psychological torment it inflicts upon its victims, creating an atmosphere of profound dread and isolation.
In its insatiable quest for mortal fear, Nocturne revels in the perverse satisfaction derived from plunging the world into shadows. This malefic entity holds an innate disdain for the brilliance of light and seeks to envelop every soul it encounters in an eternal abyss of darkness. In this relentless pursuit, Nocturne spares no mercy for the innocent and remorselessly extinguishes life, all while feeding voraciously on the exquisite banquet of nightmares and the paralyzing grip of terror.
