ABILITIES:
SKILLS:
WEAKNESSES:
- Shadow Travel: He's able to travel from one location to another through shadows and darkness.
- Darkness Generation: He can create pitch black darkness out of nothing. He's claimed to be able to cover an entire city in darkness, blocking out any and all light.
- Shadow Constructs: He's able to solidify shadows and darkness into objects, most often shaping them into some form of weaponry. He's also able to construct solid blasts of darkness with this ability.
- Shadow Puppets: He's able to create and effortlessly control mindless human-sized and shaped shadows. It's easier if he sets them to the same goal but he's able to direct them toward different goals.
SKILLS:
- Combat: Where he got his training from is unknown, but Perses has been known to hold his own in combat, though the true extent of his combat skill is also unknown.
- Weaponry: He's skilled in a variety of weapons, though he doesn't seem to ever equip himself with actual weapons, relying more on his shadow constructs.
- Manipulation: Perhaps his greatest skill, he's a master at manipulation, able to get his way with most people, able to find out what makes people tick and how best to exploit that for his own personal gain.
WEAKNESSES:
- Ego: Perses thinks way too highly of himself. In his eyes, he can't make any mistakes. Anything that goes bad is never his fault. It makes it very hard to make and keep alliances.
- Sore Loser: He doesn't take loss well, often ducking out of a fight before he loses it.
- Anger Issues: He has a violent temper that can negatively affect carefully crafted plans.
Appearance
GENERAL: Perses stands at 6'1" tall. His build is more on the thin side but not unhealthily so. His skin tone is an ivory shade, a bit toward the pale side from lack of sunlight. His eyes are a soft brown color. He has some scars littered across his body, small and faded, but surprisingly fewer scars than most people assume he has.
COSTUME: Perses' costume is all black - a black trench coat, on top of a black shirt, plant pants, black ankle boots, black gloves, black belt, and a black mask that covers his full head. The mask has technology in it that allows air in and out so he can breath, and can project his voice so he can be heard and not sound muffled. However the mask also makes his voice deeper than it actually is, helping even more to hide his identity. There are eye slots in the mask that allow him to see out though are tinted to hide his eyes. The technology in the mask allows him to see in the darkness he can create.

Personality
Perses primary trait is that of a manipulator. He uses people until he has no more use for them. He doesn't bat an eye, doesn't seem to care about the feelings or well beings of others. When he does appear to care, it's most likely a lie. When he's manipulating, though, he's good at it. He knows how to make others think he cares, he knows how to find their weaknesses and exploit them. He's cold and distant, never truly letting anyone get close, even if he lets them believe they're close to him.
He's calculated in every move he makes. Everything has to have a purpose. He can't bring himself to do something just to do it. It either benefits him or entertains him by bringing pain to someone he hates. His overall goal seems to be to gain power - he never tells anyone why or confirms their suspicions of him and his goals. He's willing to do whatever it takes to achieve anything he wants. He truly cares about no one but himself.

History
Nothing is known about Perses' life before the Cabal and that seems to be how he wants it. It's not even clear when or how he joined the Cabal. He quickly moved up the shadowy group's ranks, eventually becoming one of its highest ranking members. He gained several Cabal agents working under him over the years, including the Amadors. He spent many years in Sydney, Australia, focusing on training the Amadors for unknown reasons. He occasionally traveled to other cities and countries but always returned to Sydney to continue training the Amadors.
Then he and his agents came to Astaria. He arrived in Astaria a year ago though it doesn't appear to not be his first time in the city. A month ago, he called for the Amadors to relocate to Astaria. He appears to be putting together plans, whether said plans are in the Cabal's interest or just his, is unclear.
