• • LOOKS LIKE WE'RE IN FOR NASTY WEATHER,
One eye is taken for an eye
FACE CLAIM: Oded Fehr
SKIN: Tan
HAIR: Long black curls
EYES: Dark Brown / Occasionally silvery white
HEIGHT: 6'1'
WEIGHT: - -
OVERALL APPEARANCE: Cain takes care of himself, to say the least. He dresses in the finest suits that money, or souls, can buy. He has an air of arrogance about him most of the time, and that is only added by the layers of expensive clothes that he adorns himself in. Very rarely will anyone see him 'dressed down'. Only if he happens to be very stressed will he pick clothing of 'commoners'.
He prides himself in his looks. His hair is usually kept long, as it is one thing that has stayed with him over the many years. His thick curls rest lightly against his shoulders. Along with his finely combed locks, Cain often supports a dense short boxed beard.
Out of his luscious and well kept curls, to his pressed suits, the thing that is most striking happens to be his eyes. While they are an actual dull brown, they are piercing. He seems to stare into the depths of a person, grading them, judging, determined to 'read' a person.
Occasionally, either by temper, or by choice his eyes changed from their usual color to a silvery white - indicating that these days, he is a demon.
Often, Cain is fond of...canes, and he has several of them of various styles, colors, and textures. Often he uses these as a weapon when need be.

POWERS & ABILITIES: Cain, being very old, had moved up the ranks in the demon world. These little surges have not only given him just general strength, but added abilities. Cain can do everything a normal black eyed demon can do, but it happens to be amplified. Compared to other demons, he is equal to Lilith, though she is still his superior.
Cain has mild telepathy, making his charm even more effective than if he had not. He has the abilities to move, crush, and alter objects around him. While his general powers are 'amped up', it's the fact that a lot of things do not bother him. Salt is more delicious than a barrier. Certain knives that can kill a demon with a stab, will just hurt a lot. Not to say that Cain is invincible, but it would take quite a bit to remove him from this Earth.
OVERALL PERSONALITY: Cain is a lot like a volcano. Much like a sleeping volcano he can be quite...calm. When he is not being 'active' he's slow moving, relaxed, and quiet. Very little can bother him when he's in a good mood. Here and there he may make a vicious verbal jab, but this is just a tiny rumble in comparison to the danger that lies below a calm surface.
Once angered Cain is a flurry of venom, violence, and untamed viciousness. Nothing is below him, no code, no rule cannot be broken to enact his revenge. Once angered he is quick to react and often goes the 'no holds barred' route to things. These little 'fits' can leave quite a bit of destruction in his wake. Do you remember hearing about that city of Pompeii? Yes, well, this Demon played a role in that.
Cain can be sickeningly sweet, when he wants to get something. This is especially true if he is trying to create a 'quiet encounter' with a beautiful woman. He's charming, and he often relies on his immaculate appearance to help him with this. After all, money is power, and many people find power to be quite attractive.
Cain's loyalties lie with, Cain. After all, he killed his own brother for his own means. Cain does what he wants and only is truly polite when he needs others to get what he wants. He's quick to stab others in the back if and when he sees fit. There's something fun about getting somebody to trust...and then shoving it in their face. It's become a little game of his that he likes to play.
If and when somebody does gain his loyalty, he is a wondrous ally.
• • THERE'S A BAD MOON ON THE RISE,
don't go around tonight
HISTORY:
Cain was born from Adam and Eve. He was one of may children, but he was one of the first. Weather he or Abel were the 'true' older brother has long been forgotten over the years. Even he has forgotten who was older than the other. Still, Cain sees himself as the 'big brother' and the 'victor' of the two.
Life with his parents was fine, considering. Cain grew up in a very religious family...It was quite overbearing for him. As he grew up he started to develop a rivalry between him and his closest brother, Abel. The competition between the two of them continued to grow between them, to a point where it became unhealthy.
Whatever Abel did, Cain picked the opposite, and visa versa. As time went on details have gotten fuzzy over who picked what lifestyle first but Cain turned his life toward plants, crops, and harvesting from the land. His brother Abel went to work with animals, tending to flocks, and set up the basics of raising livestock.
Cain was content with his life, even though it was riddled with competition and a bit of a family feud. He was determined to show his brother and the rest of his family that he was the better, well, best son. Still, try as he might, Cain had a bad habit of being a bit of procrastinator and a wee bit lazy. This eventually bit him in the ass, but even to this day Cain is in the deep denial that he has times where he was seriously lacking in motivation.
Being at this time in human history people were very close to God. God also liked proof that his latest creations were loyal and trusting to Him. People gave God offerings of plants and animals in his name, and it was during one of these offerings that tore their family apart.
Cain made an offering of various grains, whilst his brother sacrificed a lamb. God liked Abel's offering, but not Cain's, and he blessed Abel well that year. Cain was furious. He didn't feel good enough - he thought that he deserved a blessing for his work too.
At first Cain was just angry, but his anger turned into bitterness. That bitterness turned into envy and then into full blown maddening rage. Furious, he plotted on murdering Abel, then - he would be the best brother. He wouldn't have to compete anymore and he could relish at being the 'favorite' son. Nobody would know...Though it wasn't long after he had brutally killed Abel, that God started asking questions.
Once the Lord found out he punished Cain. The man was marked, disfigured even. The payment for his actions were painful, physically and emotionally. Everybody he knew quickly learned of his deeds. Cain was sentenced to banishment, for no soul was to murder him. He was sentenced to live the rest of his life, lonely, angry, disfigured, and full of shame.
He lived with that mark for years, it seemed like forever. Eventually though, he grew more than just tired of being banished. He became desperate. By this time, Cain was over a hundred years old, as people lived a heck of a lot longer back then. Cain, tired of being banished, tired of being...a freak, searched for another option.
Along his travels he came upon a demon. After talking to the demon they came upon a deal. Cain, not knowing that he would give up his soul, accepted the deal that he could go back to living a normal life. For over ten years he was back to his usual self; reinvigorated and no longer marked by God's Wrath. He lived his life happily, until the day the Hell hounds came for his soul...
After serving some time in Hell, Cain started to turn. He turned into the same kind of creature he had made the deal with. Cain, was one of the first demons, not thee first, but one of the top ten.
Cain's competitive nature was flicked back on. He wanted to become one of the best demons, the best...harvester, of souls. Over thousands of years he perfected his skills, his charm, his persuasive nature to get what he wanted. Eventually he rose up the demonic ranks, from a common black eyed demon to one with silvery milky eyes.
Now, Cain spends his days in a leisurely fashion. Soul harvesting is more of a hobby to him now than a competitive sport. He feels that he's reached one of his main goals, to become the best; famous, respected, and feared. Still, even though he feels successful...he still has those urges. He still has something to prove.
