WORK IN PROGRESS
Zaizen Tamari, also known as the Corrupter, the Deciver, the Bringer of Death, is as close to a god as any metahuman has ever reached. Tales of his evil and power are still whispered between metahumans, he is the boogie man to the gifted of the world. But he was a real man once.
He ways born in 1366 CE and when he manifested he wiped out his village and the surrounding villages, instantly killing them. Immune to death, he quickly grew in power, and learned that he could not only share this immunity with his followers, but absorb power from deaths committed in his name. He quickly built up a following of zealots, drawn to his strength, and his ability to grant immortality at will. These followers, calling themselves TheLost The Lost lead by Sever worship Zaizen as a god, and as part of their "religion" move about killing any who stand in their path.
Zaizen was not satisfied with simple mortal power, or his own impressive abilities. He gathered to him any power he could find. He captured the largest deposit of ColdSteel Cold Steel in Asia. He struck a deal with the EmperorChang Shang Emperor Ch’ang. in China to secure souls to construct life itself, creating horrors of un-life, TheRightHand The Right Hand of Darkness, TheLeftHand The Left Hand of Darkness and Golem. In the BattleoftheBlade Battle of the Blade he stripped from the Norse their rune crafting secrets and out of those ashes crafted the evil weapon Deathblade.
