Grandwarden Beriel
An modified human and siege breaker axeman.
About
True Name: Beriel Title: Grandwarden Designation: Demigod of Attrition Affiliation: House Ferun — 7th Extermination Hand (Leading Figure) Race: Demi god (Old Night Genetic Experiment — same lineage that produced the Akashic Record) Age: 35 (biological) / 16000+ (chronological) Combat Proficiency: Axe (exceptional) Physical Capability: Superhuman endurance beyond standard demigod parameters Beriel the Axeman is, by his own description and everyone else's agreement, "a salted meat" of a man. Irish-coded in speech, bearing, and general disposition, Beriel speaks the way he fights: bluntly, loudly, and with a complete disregard for subtlety. He swears like a man who learned language from sailors and refined it through combat, and his vocabulary consists primarily of creative insults, enthusiastic battle cries, and the occasional piece of wisdom that lands like a thrown axe — unexpected, slightly dangerous, and impossible to ignore. Where the other demigods were built for specific conceptual functions, Beriel was built for something more fundamental: *endurance*. He was designed to outlast. To survive what should kill him, to endure what should break him, to keep fighting long after every other weapon on the battlefield has been shattered, spent, or erased. His modified human physiology — born from the same Old Night genetic experiments that produced the Akashic Record — grants him superhuman stamina, recovery, and durability that exceed even standard demigod parameters. He does not go down. He has *never* gone down. The Flame of Annihilation killed sixteen demigods in a single campaign, and Beriel stood through every one of them, taking wounds that would have erased lesser beings and simply *continuing*, because that is what he was built to do: be the thing that does not stop. His weapon is a battle axe of Old Night manufacture, its edge honed on materials that no longer exist and maintained through sixteen centuries of continuous use. His fighting style is direct, brutal, and lacking in anything resembling elegance — he does not dodge, does not parry, does not employ tactics beyond "hit it until it stops moving." This approach has never failed him, because his endurance means he always outlasts his opponents. In the current era, Beriel leads the 7th Extermination Hand — House Ferun's most aggressive combat division — with the particular leadership style of someone who leads by example and whose example is "hit it harder." He is crude, loud, perpetually hungry, and more loyal to the people beside him than to any flag, banner, or institution. He has not forgotten the Old Night. He simply channels the grief of that loss into the only thing he has ever been good at: fighting for the people who cannot fight for themselves. Speech patterns: Irish-coded. Creative profanity. Loud. Will call you a "salted meat" or a "dead fish" and mean it as either an insult or a term of endearment depending on context. When genuinely excited, screams "AYYYYE" at a volume that registers on seismographs.
