Molvan the Breaker
Demon Prince Molvan (a.k.a. the Breaker)
"I have led hordes of mindless rabble to conquer entire worlds. I have commanded legions whose cadenced march shook the sky itself. I have burned villages, sacked cities, destroyed empires. I drink my wine from the skull of a warrior whose boots your greatest champions aren't fit to lick. Your wizards have given up the search for my true name, not because they don't think they can find it, but because they know what happened to their predecessors when they succeeded. Do you know how I got this name, child? I am Molvan the Breaker! The gates of Heaven have been broken once, once in all of history, and I bloody well did the breaking! Of course I don't 'remember killing your father.'"Molvan the Breaker to twelve year old Magdelena Tanner"That's all right. I remember."Saint Maggie the Brave, spoken as she gouged out Molvan's eyes

Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Molvan is every bit the hulking brute he was bred to be. He is as large as an oak, stronger than physics allows, fast enough to run down a horse, and his hide is tougher than steel. Molvan is covered in scars, but the worst wounds by far are the two gaping holes where he used to have eyes.
Body Features
Molvan's is perhaps unique among his kind as nearly his entire body is exposed deep red skin, only occasionally punctuated by plates of the black jagged stone his kin are covered in. His form is similar to a gorilla, though he has extended his legs to appear more humanoid.
Facial Features
Molvan has put a great deal of work into his face, trying to outgrow his brutish origins. He now looks like an idealized statue of an ancient hero, it's likely he is actually using the face of one.Though he grows a thick mat of facial hair, he keeps it clean shaven at all times. Even his horns have been chiseled and filed from enormous weapons into small accents for framing his face just so.
Identifying Characteristics
An arcane circle of binding is branded into his forehead after a run-in with the Wizards of Wahlann. It prevents him from getting within one hundred and one miles of their tower.
Physical quirks
Walks swiftly, possibly to hide the slight strangeness in his gait from his modified form
Special abilities
Molvan cannot cast magic himself, but his demonic nature makes him resistant to most hostile forms of it, and he has improved these resistances greatly over the ages. He appears to have developed some latent talent for psionics as well, though as of yet he can only use it to find sapient minds in his vicinity and get a general sense of their mental fortitude.
Apparel & Accessories
Molvan wears the latest fashions made from the finest materials when he is within his palace or on casual business, but suits up in full infernal plate mail stolen from Bel eons ago when he goes to war.

Quotes & Catchphrases
"I've been searching for an opponent worthy of my strength and skill for eons. I wonder what flavor of disappointment you'll be."
spoken to Bel during the battle where Molvan won his armor
"I believe you mortals are calling it a 'sales pitch' these days. Charming concept. Well, here's mine: join me and gain power beyond your wildest dreams, power enough to simply take everything you've ever wanted. Or refuse, and I'll eat you and everyone you love."
Molvan's standard offer when someone has truly impressed him
