Without war, peace cannot be appreciated. Without peace, war would hold no honor. - Dema |
Dema is the Arisen of War, Peace, and order. He believes all three must exist in equal amounts, and if one falls out of balance he tasks his followers to fix this mistake. Good or evil he cares not. He resides in a temple, often conversing with his followers directly.
Dema is often sought out to join the various Arisen factions but Dema doesn’t believe any one single group has the right idea. Instead he considers himself separate from them all.
He holds no realms as his own, instead he interacts with humanity in the material plane daily. He only leaves his dojo to deal with Arisen matters in Atamantis. While in his dojo he treats all people equals. Mortals and divinity alike.
When the world was in strife, in dire need of someone to lead the world to state equilibrium, a man clad in armor came forth. His blade cut the air as it passed through, singing with each swing. Quickly leading a group of followers to quell wars around Kagrea. After bringing peace from strife he was gifted a spark of divinity as reward for calming Kagrea once again.
Depiction:
Dema always wears full samurai armor as well carrying traditional style blades made by Ryder himself. He prides himself on his look and equipment making sure to always keep his edge razor sharp.
His followers often depict his face with a smile if the world is in balance. He is depicted as frowning if the world is not in balance.
He speaks in a smooth calm voice even in battle, never wavering or faltering.
Enemies:
Although not enemies in the traditional sense, he often feuds with Athena and Krurm about war and what it means for the world.Commandments:
- Peace should be treasured.
- War should be celebrated.
- Loyalty above all else, to your fellow man and those who reside in your heart.
