Name: Stolas
Age: Not measured in conventional time
Race: Cambion (post-Fall Nephilim)
Occupation: Formerly a watchmaker, now a member of the Family and enforcer of its rules.
Desired role: Uncle? Son? Cousin? It's not as important to him as long as he's part of a family.
Personality: Quirky and kind on the surface, Stolas isn't the sort to assert dominance or threaten others if it isn't called for, but if a rule is broken or someone close to him is threatened, he can become deadly serious with a swiftness that leaves people wondering if he has multiple personalities. People tend to underestimate him due to his apparent laziness, apathy and humor, but contrary to appearances, he takes things quite seriously.
Looks: Mousy brown hair, shoulder length, occasionally tied in a short tail. His eyes are brown, but his pupils give off an odd yellow light, like an animal's in car headlights. He has what appear to be tattoos, but what he asserts are birthmarks inherited from his father, in a tribal pattern on his chest and back. Short, gray horns poke out of his hair a little above his hairline, about three or four inches long each, curled slightly upward, and he has a long, whiplike tail.
When using any of his stronger powers, or when he's very angry, the veins beneath his skin glow, the sclera of his eyes turn red and begin to bleed, and his hands may ignite. In dire need, wings--dark-feathered and smoldering at the edges--unfold from his back. He was told by his father that he has further daemonic heritage, but this has yet to manifest.
Stolas generally wears a dark suit and red vest, and carries a pocketwatch that he uses as the focal point for his temporal dilation ability.

- Not much stamina
- Lazy
- Insecure
Backstory: Stolas' parents were a human woman and a male daemon in the 1800's. They met in the forest when she was gathering firewood and he was hunting, and the daemon took on the form of a human man to seduce the girl. She died in childbirth, Stolas' horns causing his mother to hemorrhage and die as his father took the child back to his home plane, where he raised the boy to a young man. Not sure of how much time he spent there, as temporal dilation was one of his father's hereditary powers, Stolas escaped his domineering father and came to this plane closer to (this time period.) Always having had a fascination with machines, he set up a watch repair shop for a while, before finding the Family. He joined because it was something he'd never had--a family.
