Ramses
Tell
us a little bit about yourself. What motivates you?
Ramses: I
am an immortal entity called a Pharaoh, kind of like an angel, but many times
more powerful and much stronger, but I am a dark equivalent called a Dark
Pharaoh. Kind of like demons are to angels. I was created within a Good (also
known as a Light) Pharaoh by a similar name which I destroyed from within and
took over his body when he was 300 years old.
Physically
I am 6’8 and I weigh 400 pounds without armor. For now I am wearing a 200 pound
suit of armor that covers all of me including my face. I am extremely strong
and very powerful. I have a very short temper. I have a very muscular physique,
but I am also very agile, and I am not at all stupid. I am also very
proud. ‘The Setting Sun’ is just one of
my many aliases and titles I go by; all of them are associated with my dark
nature and solace of the shadows. I also enjoy and have a talent with creating
weapons and armor of power and metallurgy and a little crystallurgy. I have a
vast knowledge of power and talismans.
My
motivations—hmmm. I aspire to conquer, dominate, and destroy. I want to rule
the heavens and the entire cosmos with steel and an iron fist for all eternity.
I seek all manner of power to be infinitely omnipotent. I hope to overthrow The
Most High and take his place as ruler. In addition I will claim Neiko as my
queen, and she will rule at my side whether she comes willingly or not (and I
doubt she will). If she doesn’t I will
have to imprison her and force her to marry me. It doesn’t really matter me,
and this will make it more interesting which I will enjoy. I claimed her to be
mine while I was in the process of destroying my good counterpart. I did
promise him I would take very good care of her before I ended his existence for
eternity. Needless to say he didn’t like it very much, but there wasn’t
anything he could do to stop me, and he can’t now either since he is forever
extinguished! I do have a penchant for wealth— especially precious medals and
gems.
Who
are your heroes?
Ramses: I
have no heroes. All are beneath me, and none of them deserve my adoration. If I
must choose one, then I would choose: me. Although, I do have a tiny regard for
Osiris Ten Scars—why else would I choose to pretend to be his son? Well, they
do have some things I am looking for, but things haven’t gone according to
plan…
What
is your favorite food?
Ramses: I
love a 96-oz steak—medium to medium rare—with all the trimmings and desert and
sometimes I like to throw in a rack of ribs and maybe some ham and chicken. I
am a big person, so I have a matching appetite, and I have a very high
metabolism and sometimes go long periods without eating. I am not human after
all.
How
old are you?
Ramses: I
am much older than the cosmos. My age is incomprehensible to the mortal mind. I
am roughly 7 googolplexes (that’s what the Earth humans call it) old—three
hundred years younger than my good counterpart would have been if I didn’t take
over his body and destroy him.
What
is your greatest strength?
Ramses: My
physical strength and power are as equally as strong. One day I hope to become
omnipotent! My rage makes me even stronger.
Do
you have a weakness?
Ramses: No
mortal or mortal weapons can destroy me. They may injure me temporarily with
great force, but they can’t kill me. Only an immortal can kill me, but it is
still difficult. They must pierce my heart and shatter my heartstone which
contains my soul, essence, and life force. Even still it’s not easy and
requires great physical strength. Imagine trying to shatter a diamond with a
sword.
Star
Wars or Star Trek?
Ramses: I
know a little about Earth culture watching Neiko over all these eons and
keeping up with her interests. I would say Star Wars, and my favorite character
is Darth Sideous. He reminds me much of myself, except at a much, much weaker scale than I. He and I share
the same ambitions to rule and acquire power. And, no, I am not a disheveled
old man. One day all will see my face!
Wow, do not mess with this guy! But DO read his book!
The Indians and the Crackedskulls are locked in the turmoil
of war and presently in a stalemate. Her enemies, Raven and Bloodhawk, have
come up with a scheme to up the ante and break the stalemate into their
favor. Neiko later finds out that a land she thought she had only imagined
is actually real and contains a legendary and otherworldly evil
within it. Not only that, she becomes trapped there and must escape the world,
the people within it, and the sinister evil within.
