Moirzil [Nathrezim] (Persistent)
#1
Race of character/NPC: Nathrezim (OOC race to use: Human)

Class of character/NPC: Researcher (OOC class to use: Warlock)

Name of character/NPC: Moirzil

Exact modelID requested: 26628

Duration that character will be used: Persistent

Location the character/NPC will reside: Anywhere in Azeroth or Outland where the forces of the Burning Legion are organized. I can extend his reach to other locations so long as he isn't too close to large civilizations of people.

Level requested: 85

Any special equipment needed: None

Purpose for the character/NPC: the purpose of this character is for personalized events with other players that serve as difficult trials and tribulations for their characters to survive. As a researcher for Sargeras, Moirzil needs to find many test subjects in order to meet his goal of coming to a stronger understanding of the psychology of Azeroth's races. Effectively, his existence as a CMC is to give players a chance to explore their characters through an encounter with a demon and by the end of the personalized event have their characters live to tell the tale.

If somebody is in need of a dreadlord for an event or storyline, I'd be more than willing to discuss it with the player and expand his purpose. I also have plans on incorporating him into some of the event ideas I have for the future.

Usual Garments/Armor: Moirzil wears a set of plated armor that is green and gold in color, along with a matching loincloth.

Personality:

Moirzil, as a demon, is driven by aesthetic rather than emotion or will. While he is passionately driven by his goal to create chaos, the way in which he causes it is what he takes joy in. One would think that chaos, the very opposite of order, has no need for aesthetic. However, Moirzil believes that just as creation comes from nothingness, order creates nothingness, and so just as style is necessary for creation, it is just as necessary for undoing.

The above philosophy is the groundwork for the demon that Moirzil has become. As a researcher, he carries out experiments. Experimentation, in order to be successful, requires control. In order set them up, Moirzil makes sure to trap his subjects and keep them from escaping by recruiting the help of other demons, cultists, and the constructs that he has learned to create. It is not his life being in danger that Moirzil worries about, but rather, the notion of nothing being gained from his experimentation. Due to these concerns, he becomes quite the control freak when carrying them out; everything has to be restrained and controlled so that the variables can be given freedom.

Because he has become so flexible in what he's willing to research, his psychology reflects this. Though he is a demon, he can be quite considerate, polite, and well-spoken, especially when he's not carrying out an experiment. When he is done with his test subjects, he shows them mercy by not having them killed and letting them go on about their lives; killing and fighting isn't his purpose in the Legion. When he is leading his experiments, however, he can be as tyrannical, sadistic, and neurotic as a child with no morality.

History:

Long ago, somewhere within the Twisting Nether, Moirzil came into existence. Just as the other demons that came from the nether, his purpose was to undo the workings of the titans and all that they had worked to create. His career as a researcher began early in his life. His service to his fellow demons was to find new worlds and study them in order to collect information that might assist the other nathrezim who would eventually take them over. During these long years of searching, finding, and destroying, Moirzil would learn how to balance desire and cunning, using the thousands of years of his early life to master the art of disguising one's self. In being able to hide his true form, he was able to communicate and closely observe the people that the demons would eventually eradicate. However, after carrying out his wicked deeds and revealing himself one too many times, one of the titans would imprison him within the Twisting Nether.

After a long time of carrying his job out, a titan who the demons once considered their enemy and antithesis, the very titan who was responsible for imprisoning Moirzil, would soon join into the cause of undoing order and creating chaos in the universe. Sargeras, having abandoned his old duties as a titan, now sought an army to carry out his ambitions of undoing all that he and his brothers had done. Even though he was freed by the one who had restrained him, Moirzil was skeptical of the titan's ambitions and wasn't ready to join his army just yet. For a while, he waited and watched to see if Sargeras true to his words. Eventually, he would join the army after witnessing planet after planet being destroyed at a faster rate thanks to the new army.

Moirzil joined the Burning Legion just as Argus had been found and targeted. The eredar of Argus, practitioners and masters of magic in all of its forms, seemed to be the perfect targets for corruption. Moirzil didn't think so at first, but after a time of watching them go on about their lives in such a utopian world, even he was convinced. However, these people were especially intelligent, and might prove difficult to manipulate. Sargeras, as it turned out, already had this covered by making an offering to their leaders. Two out of three of the leaders were convinced, but the other, as it turns out, was skeptical. Taking the ata'mall crystal for himself, and gathering his followers on top of a mountain, a few of the eredar were able to avoid becoming the twisted and mutated man'ari. Moirzil watched as the newly turned monstrosities scrambled against an impenetrable wall of magic, unable to chase after the eredar that escaped into the skyward vessel.

Little did Moirzil know that the mistake of letting those few eredar escape would determine the next 25,000 years of his life. The Draenei, the exiled ones, journeyed through the universe on their Oshu'gun and hopped one planet after another. The demons, familiar with finding and destroying worlds, didn't find it difficult to give chase to the Draenei and their interplanetary journey. However, their cunning and quickness rivaled that of the demons', and for thousands of years Moirzil would spend his time researching the actions of the Draenei when they were found, even if the time he had available to research them was brief. It wasn't until they reached Draenor when Moirzil, along with a few other demons, realized that it would be easier if they tried to corrupt the short-lived Orcs and turn them against the people they would share the planet with. This, as it turns out, was a successful move. Most of the Draenei's population was wiped out.

Yet, the Draenei, to the frustration of Moirzil and others, were able to survive this predicament and escape to Azeroth. The next four or so years would prove to be exciting for Moirzil, at the least. Azeroth was a diverse planet full of races that the demons could turn against each other. Not only that, many of them were steadily at war with each other. At the same time, Moirzil came to worry, is that the Draenei's Army of Light could very well come into realization with the aid of the many races of Azeroth. Now, as a researcher, Moirzil has made it his goal to understand all of these races in order to figure out how the Burning Legion can combat them.

I'm going to go ahead and say that I'm abandoning this CMC, mostly because there isn't any model for the tothrezim (I'd essentially be using a dreadlord model with the cleaner) and because I may or may not be submitting another CMC I'd prefer to have considered rather than this one.

And unabandon this one. I still think there's a lot of things I can do with this character. Him being a Tothrezim might be a problem, but I'm flexible with changing that and working with something else if that's a problem. And one of the larger problems is it coming from d20 lore (which we've taken and decided not to take from in various cases), and the other problem is that his four arms can't be represented in game. There's not much I can do about that, other than come up with something along the lines of 'he got two of his arms torn off as punishment' for something at some point in his history.

Forgot to bump this guy to get him above the line. Flexible with changing a lot if that's necessary.
#5
Bump.

Changed him to Nathrezim because I think that can still make sense given some of the dreadlords that exist and the work that they do. Also because Tothrezim are d20 and I've given up with trying to see if that bit of lore would be alright to run with.
