Only being a shell of former heroic self, Eric Zarathos is known and just an average demon with a muscular build physique from a healthy diet. He almost looks like a combination of both of a trained samurai and medieval warrior from the dark ages. From his long age, His hair has changed back from pitch black into the pure white this time keeping it long and well comb for keeping up appearances. His eyes are the returned back to the same color from all those years ago which was brown when in his transformed states they take on different colors. The newest thing about him, Eric has a tribal tattoo upon his right arm completely which represents different things. Of that of family and unholy fear of the fallen mad demon clan that he was once belong to. It just reminds of the mad demon past that he once lived. People have said that he looks human yet japanese looking having a height of six feet and weight of 199(lbs) pounds keeping much a human appearance. Two of his oldest wounds had returned ever since being revived; First A old black scar upon of the lower part of his chest which was Zanpakutō slash of what a shinigami gave him. The second wound was old wound the very one from when he was stabbed by his greatest enemy.
» Clothes: The style of clothing has changed; Eric wears cloth bands only on his wounds which left arm and around his stomach which hides his greatest wound from the past. Time and time again through hardships of training or combat wounds will appearing so their no telling how much cloth bandages he'll use but the demon can patch himself up. For clothing, Eric Zarathos really a style of clothing is whatever the demon chooses whenever is samurai looking or human urban warrior. This time around the demon had chosen a samurai combination attire; He wears a silk white shirt and dark boxer shorts for underwear purposes to hide his mentionables. After years of magic, Eric created a stylized black tribal haori jacket only wearing it on the right side of his body kinda to do something traditional. The former mad demon has a taken a liking into wearing black tribal baggy jeans and black army boots something of a human thing.
» Hell Demon Appearance Written: Eric' shift appearance has been altered somewhat from the mad demon into an true rakshasa demon thanks to the sin implanted within him. While still without upper body armor, the lower robe seems to have been replaced with lower body armor adorned with skulls, keeping with his motif. His hair is completely black, and he now has a green crystal located on his right pectoral near the shoulder along with a scar/tattoo on that shoulder. He bore the greatest burden of guilt on the near destruction of his own race. Eric put on his iconic skull mask to represent his role as his genocide pact was struck, and he has not removed the mask since. The angry souls of the Fallen were trapped in a demonic crystal talisman forever bonded to his chest, leaving him cursed to be eternally tormented by the lost spirits.

____________________________________________________
» Personality: After being revived Eric felt mostly his old heroic and fallen mad demon persona creating a balanced neutral state. The newly restored demon actually feels more calm and steady without anger and fury instincts raging inside and screwing his memories and judgment. Still, Eric feels a tremendous amount of rage from the past lives which the demon can use something like an anger booster towards his enemies. Just by thinking of an tragic memory and actually using it to focus his mind and fighting prowess to continue his fight against his enemy. If the situation calls for it then the demon can use more brutal force when it needed but now with the killer madness out of him the demon can show mercy. He doesn't trust Shadowfall nor Khala anymore now his full mental state restored like a unknown mental force told him to back off. Khalaism is something of miserable creation of godly religion and now the demon really hates it feeling used for some evil upbringing of darker intentions in the future. However Eric became more of a rule breaker against evil fighting the forces of darkness with his noble heart resurfacing from the years of madness. Always cherishing his accomplishments giving him a will to succeed when all hope is lost it something to help him move forward. Still, This can change depending on the situation having purely serious attitude focus one completing a mission or goals set out for him.
For a new reason, Eric believes for every action there is a reaction if someone starts a fight or dispute with him. Because of the madness gone with him the new demon knows not to go out of control anymore. If the right buttons are push they better finish it or kill him because he'll rise up to the occasion with many fighting abilities and stuff as his disposal. Hoping one day that he could tell woman he loves that he's sorry for all the horrible things he's done. Despite his thoughts, Eric can be a loyal person to the right cause or organization the demon can show respect a person or organization who has great power.
One thing hasn't changed completely his lust for power but this is different because the former Kade Hiroshima wants one thing to finally accomplish. Something that drives Eric Zarathos to see through allowing find every avenue to make that dream a reality for everyone and achieve it. To see Touketsu and Shadowfall meet their end to see them is something worth fighting for.
» Likes: Winning, Violence, Women, The dark will to succeed, pushing himself beyond his limitations, and never giving up even when the odds are stacked against him
» Dislikes: Death; Friends turning their backs on him, Betrayal, Somebody or some people who think their better when they know they aren't

» Natural Abilities: Akuma Kyodo: Thanks to the full body seal most demon's have on their bodies from birth, Akuma Kyodo gives most Demon's a layer of defensive skin that is similar to an Arrancar's Hierro. This will be general defense, though if have a high Za Koa Skill, you can temporarily double your defense. Masters can do it for ten post, Advanced for seven, adept for four and beginners for two. All come with a three post cooldown. But that's where the similarities end, and the differences begin. What makes a demon's Akuma Kyodo: so different? Well, for instance, this layer of skin is not just applied physically like Arrancar's are or any other races natural defense. What makes a demon's defense stands out is that it applies to magic, spiritual attacks, their environments, how resistant they are to poisons or toxins and even how much their mental state improves. You see, thanks to having so much magic being pumped into their bodies, their defense is MUCH more wide spread then any Shinigami, Arrancar or even Iramasha. Basically, the higher your defense is, the most attacks, barriers or ANYTHING in general; the more resilient you are to anything offensive being thrown at you
Affinity of Hell: If a Demon ever gets the chance to foot into hell or has the skill level and power to summon it's presence on the battlefield, they can potentially increase their power by five times just by having it around them. In some instances, in fact, Demon's can even rise one tier level if enough consumes them for the duration of the thread they are in. This is due to the fact that there is a large amount of hellish energy within that place for Demon's to thrive on and it's filled with many hidden elements that were designed to overcharge a Demon in times of crisis.
But, in addition to that, the presence of hell augments not only their power abilities but the inherent and magical abilities of said demon; giving improved versions of their abilities or completely new ones altogether.
Body Manipulation: This is a natural ability that all demon's possess if they wish to activate it or perform it. Most Demon's have full control over every aspect of his physical make-up, able to stretch themselves to obtain insane heights such as being thirty foot tall, being able to change their skin color, having the ability to shape-shift into different people that they are able to remember and, on much more powerful levels, being able to even detach, generate or fuse body parts together in order to increase odds of surviving. Though, this does not occur until at least one tier, and even then it's weak compared to the 0 tier version. Additionally, it can even be used for offensive or defensive purposes. For example, a demon can use Body Manipulation in order to generate a layer of steel-like skin around their body in order to increase their defense and block out outside sources from entering their body by clogging every pore on it. Or, for another instance, they could use it on the offensive side by hurling body parts at their opponent that are extremely hot and turn into acid blood, using their increased height to smash down on most opponents and the same may even apply for some more powerful demon's attacks; or finally, in an avoidance way, more powerful demon's could even control their body in order to be broken down into a liquid, wind or fire type form in order to gain more ways to escape or evade attacks.
The Art Of Demon Magic: What exactly IS the Arts of Demon Magic? In a sense, you COULD call it the Demon's Kidō, but you'd be wrong as well. Why? Well, Demon Magic actually works like real MAGIC is suppose to. Of course, Kidō like spells, summons and barriers can be created with Demon Magic. That's a given. However, it can be taken MUCH further then that application. For instance, an advanced user in Demon Magic could use this in order to gain Telekinesis on a more light level. Even combat standards, if he were to look at an attack and see it coming, the Telekinesis would kick in and attempt to change it course if enough was generated from The Demon to negate it. Other example would be gaining Gyrokinesis in some cases in order to actual make it seem like they are toying with gravity itself; which in fact they are. Within a contained area, this demon could remove the gravity of some things, make it heavier in other places or even apply it to more focused objects like their attacks to cause more impact force. Not only that, but an even higher example of that is that some demon's with a Master in this would be able to even create things out of thin-air with no explanation what so ever. For example, a Master in The Art Of Demon magic could defy the laws of physic's by actually making energy cease in something and remove it. This may not seem like much, but it's actually an amazing feat as the laws of physic's clearly states energy can never be erased. However, in terms of combat, in order to do this they would need to overpower it. Another situation in which you could get a taste of Demon Magic would be them turning your energy attack into a batch of living snakes, them creating fields of anti-spiritual barriers around them or just making themselves plain invisible.
Kage Chokyo-Shi: Kage Chōkyō-shi is the ability for most demons with adept Za Koa users to travel through different dimensions, travel throughout the battlefield or even use it for defense. By channeling Za Koa's energy in addition to the various seals throughout their body in addition to their Shadow Movement, they are able to create many different dimensional holes in the area's around them; each of them being able to range from a small vicinity such as a few inches, to the size of a city block depending on their Za Koa skill. These can lead to other realms; while there is also the possibility it can be used to shield against attacks if they are not more powerful than the demon and be used on the offensive by attempting to slash the opponents attack in half by creating one of those opening in the center of their assault. Although, it's also worth noting that this is mostly a passive skill to allow demon's to travel through different areas on the site; such as moving back and forth through the Soul Society, Living Realm and so forth. Those with advanced and Master in Za Koa Skill will begin to see ways to utilize it in battle; such as creating waves of blackness meant to consume limited attacks.
Demonic Power: His mad homicidal power is gone no changing that. Eric after being revived fought ways through experimentation to restore a medium fraction of that dark power. Through experiments, Eric Zarathos siphon off a large amount of the Dreadnought's power to reawakened the dormant power within his very body. Even though, Eric's power isn't like it once was absorbing back the clone and armor's powers the power regulated itself back into his new body. His power is the same to that of a new stronger yet regular level. In short. Eric has the same power of that of shinigami's vice captain in training within the Soul society. He hates it.....Which is why the demon pushes himself finding new ways of power and fighting stronger opponents to regain what was lost to him. Eric Zarathos wants to regain what power he had to exact his revenge upon all he considers a major threat to him. He believes in the old human method. "All good things come from hard work and luck"
Demon Strength: Eric's muscle mass bulks up by a little enhancing his physical strength will improve his body in battle. Though his strength was completely weaken after his revival removing all of his deadly strength. He's able to do what a strong or normal demon when caught in dangerous situations and battle stopping some kido abilities and other attacks. Really it depend on his strength also on how strong the enemy's attack maybe he'll be able to defeat it or break it down but still get hit by it badly. Even time stopping an attack and experiencing the full force of it putting his body on the line if gets wounded, burned. The way he is now, Eric isn't a match against transformed people, shikai/bankai, quincy powers and etc. However, He trained by his clan and Tyros Hiroshima to handle strong opponents for a very limited time just about for four but six posts being his max. Anymore then his strength will weaken and he'll might be dead meat. Eric is a skilled brute warrior trying to regain his lost title.
Hiroshima Combat Proficiency: Trained at a young age, Eric Zarathos have only trained himself into using basic combat skills improving his striking power still consider to be a novice. Over the long years, He began researching other styles of combat but really nothing was good enough for him for his demon fighting skills. Until, Eric's brother started teaching him boxing skills. Always training his hands transforming them into deadly weapons training with a punching bag improving how fast they can hit the target. He knew how to empowering his fists with zoa koa or other energies making them feel like small battering rams to enemies. The former demon hoping his strikes becoming very accurate even enough to hit hard and fast to hit his target hoping for a sheer knockout. Still, He known to have his demonic share of victories and failures from enemies which people have been known to defeat him pretty well.
» Unique Abilities: Pure Blast: The demon is able to fire a blast of black energy from his hand. By harnessing his zoa koa energy then manipulating it into the form of an energy blast or energy ball getting ready for an attack.Then fired the blast which has only medium strength to it which can be dodged or counter. This can be charged up into a much stronger attack that will take a post to gather energy for it power.
[Charge: Instantly, It takes 1-2 Post to Cooldown]Pure Beam: The attack is almost the same power and weakness to stronger cero being shot from the mouth or hands. The attack starts off as he starts growling gathering large amounts of energy. Bigger Energy particles started forming a white ball, Eric started yelling and the white ball releasing a powerful blast of concentrated white energy at the target. However, the technique itself has a flaw the ball if it destroyed then the attack weakens with 50% strength. Making it little hard to dodge, block or destroy it.
[Charge: 2-3 Posts, Cooldown: 5 Posts]Eye Lasers: These are precise laser-like beams shot from both eyes. The potency of the Eye Laser technique varies, but most of them are very fast and able to nullify weak attacks and small projectiles, as well as cripple opponents when they are greatly damage and damage other objects. This can blocked or dodged easily.
[Charge: Instantly, It takes one post to Cooldown]Devil Spiral Beam: The technique is a strong spiral laser beam to hurt her enemies.The move is performed by touching the index and middle fingers of one hand to the forehead and charging enough energy to attack. Its speed changes to the demon energy of the person performing the move. When ready, the fingers are extended forward, the attacker shouts the name of the attack and two thin energy beams are unleashed from the fingers. One remains straight while the other coils around the straight beam. The resulting beam is quite powerful, drilling through most targets, and exploding on the ones it can't. It can also be used with only one arm. The weakness is can be blocked to dodge easy enough if the enemy had faster speed or great defense.
[Charge: 3-4 Posts, Cooldown: 8 Posts before using again. It can pierce through some armors, shields even barriers depending how much power is placed into the blast.]Blood-Reaper's EyesBlood-Reaper's Eyes: A last resort to restore the blood eyes technique through research by one of his remaining minions. This works as the same as a higher Blood Eye technique but this version is completely demonic in nature. Very same but demonic abilities like the Blood Eyes the demon had to his eyes replaced and blindfold for weeks to gain each of demonic abilities of the devil reaper eyes. Through this, Eric's blood eyes went through an unique transformation taking the eyes of a demon war-hunter a demon war eyes. Eric's Reaper eyes can actually track an enemy movements to some degree. He can keep track with an enemy's speed power such as an shinigami's flash step, iramasha's chaos warp or an arrancar's sonido. When an enemy is attacking, Eric can track their movements & attack styles. Through experimentation, Eric has been able to cancel illusion/mental-like abilities from the tier level that he's on. Also given a chance of dodge attacks when he combines it with his shadow movement & affinity of hell to give himself a much faster dodge speed. With this Reaper eyes, Eric can actually have an advantage in a fight using this for counter attacks, countering magic, performing defensive powers and blowing up energy attacks.
Blood Eyes AbilitiesBlack Hell: The ultimate flames of death; A warlock demon would never touch this power it said that the black hell technique burns an enemy.. The black flames burn like acid itself burning anything that comes within burning the place or hurting the targeted victim. However, Black Hell doesn't last forever perhaps (2-3 posts) then the black flames disappear put a strain on the reaper eye that spawn the black flames. These are dark flames of the souls of the dead the blackness of the flames. It an example of their pain and hatred towards the world. These jet-black hell flames can be ignited only by the user's devil reaper eyes vision focusing directly at an opponent or target. The black flames really places a major strain on a demon eyes causing a demon's eye causing it bleed and crack up completely. It takes a lot of concentration and magic the summon these flames summoning them them a high magic level . The deadly attack had a blind spot the demon has to look at an enemy for the black hell flames to cover or burn an attack.
[It can be defeated by water attacks, barriers and magic. Yet it can be dodged because the Black Hell isn't fast like a wildfire the first attack maybe fast but additional attacks will take time. It can be dodged if the Reaper eye is blocked or the enemy is able to dodge the black flames with their speed or racial speed ability. Black Hell puts a strain on Eric's eyes meaning he'll have to wait. Meaning the Black Hell flames speed will weaken and will be able to dodge]Hellfire Magic: A way of transforming flame magic augmenting it into a hell flame that burns hotter/stronger than pyrokinesis. Eric needed about five talismans to control the temperature and stability of the demon power of hellfire. The talisman(Cthulhu), red talisman(Blood), diamond talisman(Generation), hell talisman(Pain) and the ruby talisman(Hellfire). These five talismans lie upon Eric's right in cloth bandages which a witch's hex chain holding it together properly. The magic will empower each talisman starts glowing a different color only meaning that the ritual can begin. A certain chant must said once per thread to unlock and control the hellfire magic in a white color. "Fall from grace and embrace thy fire to consume thee and perish" Each glowing talisman starts a chain reaction drawing out hellfire of a burning white flame at a 2,750 degrees fahrenheit. The magic of the white hellfire can be used for creating hotter flame based attacks from his willpower and talismen control. Eric's hellfire magic is one of the techniques that the demon remembered from his years of his fallen can also the deaths of many comrades.
Shadow Crissaegrim SwordShadow Crissaegrim: The recreation of the shadow iramasha's weapon of choice which took months and blacksmithing and witchcraft to revive it full potential. This weapon features a hand-hollow ground, hand-finished blade. This sword is an exact duplicate of the legendary vampire sword but with one important difference, instead of being made of 440 stainless steel, it is made of shadow pure adamantium steel and heat treated to a tough 56 HRC and fully sharpened, making it a fully functional weapon. The shadow sword is painstakingly re-created, with solid bronze fittings cast from the original molds. The grip has a core of stabilized birch and is wrapped in leather to match the original vampyre sword. Runic inscriptions are deeply etched into both sides of each blade, exactly as on the original sword. Eric had place what remaining iramasha powers within the blade to make it lethal shadow weapon killing people and the sword feasted upon their shadows. After creating the sword; Eric is reminded his shadow iramasha powers are lying dormant again back within his demon soul.
Crissaegrim AbilitiesDemonic Shadow Strength: When holding the sword, A massive spike of shadow spiritual energy is sent directly into the blade when this happens it the blade turns black. The physical damage power of the shadow sword will be enhanced because of the shadow power infused inside of it. Allowing for stronger slash or slash-like attack from the weapon. With the sword, Eric been known to stop or break medium or some strong attacks and most kidō abilities with a swing of his sword. The demon maybe able to destroy stronger attacks but they can hurt him or explode right depending on the enemy's strength.
Dark Shadow Durability: An unique ability when the blade glows burning black as shadow energy is formed give it more shadow dark flame power for many different attacks for the sword. Yet it also used to give it defense against the natural enemies of shadow fire which is light/angelic. Some attacks can also weaken it but at a very limited time because of the amounts of shadow energy. But too many angelic/light attacks like an onslaught or an multitude can greatly weaken the attack power of the seishin buki and it attacks.
Darkness Hunter: At the instant of the slash, Shadow Crissaegrim absorbing Eric's spiritual zoa koa energy, releases the highly condensed spiritual energy at the tip of the blade magnifying the slash attack, which flies forward. This slash takes the form of a flaming crescent moon or the shape of a wave. The Darkness Hunter is a powerful technique with great force, capable of creating large-scale damage and destruction. Eric has used this technique in several different manners, such as striking the ground to create an omnidirectional blast to knock away incoming attacks or slashing at the ground to upturn it and crush everything in its path.
Blackheart Bloodbath: The equivalent of a massacre bloodbath; It how destructive the technique is which can cut through enemies like butter even turning just one into pure chop suey. From research, Eric made this technique from combining three demon abilities (art of magic/body manipulation/affinity of hell) into his shadow sword. Months of training went into making the technique work as the demon gets ready sword stance holding the blade. As his shadow forms something of a pentagram on the ground as a shadow carnage ritual is set motion getting the technique charged. Eric saids
"Embrace the Darkness" unleashing the full power of the technique. He begins charging at shadow speed as the demon breaks down into shadow energy clones about ten of them. Each shadow clone then disappear attacking doing about nine large energy slashes slashes from a energy sword for an estimated total of 90 large energy sword slashes. The unbelievable part is that the enemy or enemies won't feel a thing it will be like nothing happen. Unseen to the naked eye the sword slashes will be completely invisible because of art of magic and body manipulation keeping them at a complete stand still. Finally, Eric will return back to normal then his claws will return back into normal fingers as the energy slashes will begin to attack the enemy or enemies.. It will feel like the clawed apart of horde of zombies or worse being chopped over and over with a javelin.
Black Inferno Blast: Black Inferno is a massive burst of destructive energy a demon can unleash if they have Adept or higher on Za Koa. It starts by gathering energy from Za Koa along with the Demon's Blood and any type of darkness. From there, it will form into a ball of darkness that can be used to unleash serious damage upon anything it hits; resulting in a black explosion that is similar to a cero in destruction and can be broken down like a bala as well. Though, unlike a cero or bala, The Black Inferno Blast does alot more then just simply explode. When it explodes, if trapped within the blast, the opponent will begin to feel extreme amounts of heat generating from their skin; so hot, in fact, some believe they are actually on fire from the strain on a person's will. However, this does more then that. That's simply the sign of a dangerous demon parasite entering a person's body. If a direct contact is made or even partial contact, there will be a strong rush of parasites, demon magic and Za Koa's force entering a person's body. From that point, over the course of five post if there was a direct hit or three for a indirect, this will begin to heavily tax an opponent. It will force them to drain extreme amounts of energy until they are somewhat weakened, slowed or damaged if they are unable to extract it from there bodies.
