Physical description:
A solid stone monster with green moss at various points on his surface, an 11-foot behemoth with eyes that shine with a strong purple light.
He has immense chiropteran wings that make him even more threatening and his body has a carapace carved into his rocky skin. His wild features resemble that of a horned, fierce and atrocious creature with crystalline fangs.
His claws are as large as daggers, both in the hands and feet, an extension of his stone fingers.
He has a long tail, also made of stone and strong enough to be used as a weapon.
Despite his apparent bestiality, his mannerisms indicate how cultured he is.
When using blood magic, his body is covered with glowing red runes.

- Acknowledged by Ivan, former Prince of Joinville

Character Information
Known History
A perfect and faithful soldier raised in the days of Ceoris, he defended his masters against Tzimisce aggression for many years before being moved to Vienna.
Everything before that is a mystery even to him, but it is something he never questioned. All that ever mattered was the safety of his beloved House and Clan.
He spent years missing after the Montmartre crisis where several of his brothers ended up being destroyed, having reappeared centuries later in the secret deposits of the powerful Tremere Lord Maximus in southern Brazil.
Reanimated and placed in the services of the Chantry of Joinville, he resumed his task as a soldier, dedicating his unlife to the fight against the Sabbat and the infernalists that devastated the region.
Evolving culturally as well as physically, he was one of the first to receive the honor of being considered part of the Tremere bloodline and openly showing himself as a loyal member of the Clan.
He devoted himself both to defending the Domain of the Cruz Magna and to his studies of blood magic.
