Doomsy

Doomsy is a resident of the Lounge.

He is a teenager that struggles with purpose in his life, preferring to keep to himself rather than socialize with his friends in the Lounge. He is an excellent warrior, but struggles with battle as he fears the constant warfare in his life has dehumanized him. Despite this, he cares greatly for his friends and family.

Story
Doomsy's birth year and exact age are unknown. His earliest memories are being thrust into the Lounge during his teenage years and learning to fight with the sword. He bonded easily with Reinhardt, as well as Artemis and her son Orion. He gained powers by making a trek to an icy mountain, where he met Rose, a snow angel who was cursed to give heroes magical abilities.

However, he was the centerpiece of an ongoing war between two cults known as the Brethren and the Karambit. One day, an evil force implanted in him by the Karambit caused him to attack his friends against his will, causing the Brethren to intervene, killing him and storing his soul in the afterlife, where he remained for years.

Eventually, he was deemed safe and brought back to life with no memories of his previous life, despite now being in control of shadow magic. Once again, he bonded with Reinhardt, coming to refer to him as a father. During this time Tesla built him his new sword and Reinhardt taught him warping. His combat skills were tested in a fight against a giant worm, which he survived but lost his left arm in the process. It was replaced by a highly advanced prosthetic.

Throughout this time he was plagued by memories of his old life until finally, he journeyed to the mountain and met Rose again, confirming his suspicions that he had existed in a previous life. He rescued Rose from the mountain and they began developing a romantic relationship. Eventually he and Rose moved out of the lounge and into a castle in the woods that he built with money gathered from collecting bounties.

As more and more of his memories returned, he eventually confronted the Brethren's leader, SIlver, who revealed the truth about his past. Fueled by rage and guilt, Doomsy abandoned Rose and the other Lounge members, fearing that he would try to kill them again.

After a while of traveling, he returned to the Lounge pursued by members of the Karambit, who were hunting him. In a battle frenzy, he accidentally used too much shadow magic and unleashed his evil side, causing the Brethren to attempt to kill him again. He survived their attack, but gravely, after being nursed back to life by Reinhardt and Kaitlyn.

As soon as he was fit to travel, he returned to Rose's mountain and found her, confessing his apologies and his desire to live a normal life with her. She agrees to his proposal, but first he summons the Brethren and Karambit in order to settle the feud between the two cults. The two leaders, Silver and Aurum, agree to settle their differences under threat of death, and Doomsy and Rose depart the Lounge in search of a better life.

Powers and Abilities
Doomsy is a skilled swordfighter and marksman. He fights with a hybrid sword/rifle weapon created for him by Tesla, which he uses to devastating effect.

Since his abduction by the Brethren, he has been able to use shadow magic. This involves hiding in darkness, traveling between shadows, and creating tendrils of shadow to move objects. His exposure to the Karambit also allows him to use light in a similar way.

Doomsy has also mastered the art of warping, a magic system employed by many Lounge residents that allows him to travel from place to place instantaneously. He was taught warping by Reinhardt.

Trivia

 * Doomsy is not his real name. It was given to him as a shortened version of the word Doomsday by the Brethren, and as he does not remember his parents he does not know his birth name.
