■ personality |
■ likes
- cooking: probably thanks to his sin being gluttony, arian loves to cook anything from meals, to baking desserts. he never tells this to anyone, but its one of his favorite pastimes when he is alone.
- eating: this is definitely in thanks to his sin. arian absolutely loves to eat. and eat. and eat. and he can consume an almost endless amount of food. its like there's no bottom to his stomach. and he'll eat just about anything too. he doesn't really dislike foods, he just wants to eat them all.
- fighting: ah, another favored pastime. fighting is an absolute favorite. fighting anything from other demons, to angels, to hunters, to other species, to just about anything, really.
- pissing people off: pissing people off. what more of a description could one need? he loves making others angry and watching them lose their cool (and possibly try to fight him).
- physical activities: anything that tests the limit of his body is something he likes doing. whether sports, or just extreme activities, as long as it provides a challenge, he's likely to accept it.
- great amount of stuff: when he gets something, he wants a lot of it. it's no where near as much as greed, it's not even close to that. it's just when he gets something, he wants a lot of it, like food for example. it's probably something to do with gluttony.
- women: if one were to say that he was chaste, it would clearly be a farfetched lie. he's far from chaste, and has probably laid with hundreds of women throughout his existence.
- smoking: a lot of people tell him it will damage his health -- he laughs at them. he's a demon, it won't damage his health. smoking helps to calm him down, and he tends to carry a pack of cigarettes or a cigar wherever he goes, and even smokes them during class sometimes.
■ dislikes
- losing: shouldn't this just be expected? this dislike ranges from anything from losing a fight, to an argument, to a sport, to a simple game. he hates it. and he tends to lose his temper when he does lose... it's probably best to just let him win and feel a sense of false satisfaction then bother dealing with his tantrums.
- being ignored: along the same reaction to losing, arian hates being ignored. just pay attention to him when he's talking. or at least pretend to pay attention. he hates it when people don't listen when he speaks to them.
- being wrong: ah yes, being wrong. about anything, really. it pisses him off, and again, he loses his temper. it doesn't matter what he's wrong about. if he's wrong, and it can be proven, he hates it.
- advice: he hates when people try to give him friendly advice, and usually ignores them when they do.
- rules: ugh, why does he have to listen to them? he just wants to set his own rules, none of which he would impose on others just because he hates them being imposed on him. probably why he hates the school rules too.
- angels: their pretty white wings, their annoying happy attitudes, their stupid pure virtues... all of it, he absolutely hates them. or at least their behavior. the rest doesn't really bother him... too much.
- furry things & cute animals: they piss him off. he doesn't understand what the hell everyone sees in them. cute. yeah right.
- sunlight: it's not that he really hates it, or that it really bothers him. he just prefers nighttime. it's more attune to his... nature.
■ habits
- tends to insult people without realizing it
- zones out when people are talking to him
■ fears
- heights: think he's silly yet? arian is absolutely terrified of heights. if he has to go up any sort of distance into the air, he has to fight his urges to immediately go back down. he tries to control it so no one else notices but even he has a hard time doing that. he gets all pale and sweaty when he notices he's up high and his voice shakes. he's rather ashamed of it, so he just stays low to the ground.
■ overall
Brooding and unhappy appear to be two major traits of Arian's. This is to be expected at almost all times. He wears emotionless expressions, or glares that border on a hidden pain. Very few seem to understand this however, and he denies it to those that manage to recognize it. He would prefer to keep his emotions to himself instead of putting his trust in others. He doesn't want to get close to anyone anymore. Other than the hidden pain in his glares, he shows anger, as if he's angry at everyone he meets.
Very few are able to get behind this wall, but those who do he is fiercely loyal to, to the point that he would sacrifice everything and anything to protect them. He becomes almost fatherly to those who are younger than him that he cares for. And since he becomes so loyal, those people are always able to depend upon him, he wouldn't break his promises or do anything that would hurt them unless in the process he would be protecting them.
However, his views on things can sometimes be flawed in this aspect. Sometimes he will do something that he believes is right for them, but in the end only end up making it worse, or hurting them, physically or emotionally. He instantly regrets it in this case, and apologizes profusely and does anything he can to make it better while beating himself up on the inside, blaming himself for everything and everything, even if parts of it aren't his fault.
He loves to fight, no matter who his opponent is or how strong or weak they are. He refuses to ever back down from a battle. He's confident in his abilities, over-confident as most people would claim. He knows how to use his brain during this, though, and doesn't fight recklessly. He's perceptive and calculating and uses this to his advantage.
He doesn't like listening though. He's rebellious and stern, refusing to listen to others. This makes him usually a loner. Not to mention that he also thoroughly enjoys pissing other people off to the point that he would even list it as one of his hobbies. Outwardly he is arrogant, cocky, and boastful. He thinks proudly of all his accomplishments, poorly of all his failings. He strives to become better in everything he does whatever the cost, and is extremely irritable. He hates being confined to any kind of rules, preferring to set his own. This includes the 'rules' that the races have grown used to.
If faced with nothing to do, one can frequently find him in a library, or another place of learning. He enjoys testing his mind, meeting new challenges, and learning new things. He wants to expand his knowledge. History is one of his favorite things (even though he became the P.E. Teacher), and he prides himself on his knowledge when he knows something someone else does not. . . to the extent that he usually says something that hurts their feelings.
Then of course there's the cooking. Arian loves to cook. Over the centuries he's mastered his skills in the cooking and baking department. He keeps these skills to himself, though and refuses to admit he cooks or bakes, while in secret does so in his apartment non-stop... excessively. That should be expected, however, since his sin is kind of gluttony.

■ appearance
Tall, dark-haired, and brooding sums him just about all the way up. Arian reaches just about six foot seven inches in height, and weighs an approximate amount of two hundred and thirty pounds. He has a quite a bit of muscle stretched over his large frame, gained from many physical activities throughout his many years of life. His body is one of his more prided features after all. He also has rather tanned skin.
Starting from the top, one will notice that he has a somewhat square-shaped face, however his chin comes down almost into a flat point, giving it an oval appearance as well. His other facial features are rather sharp. He has a pointed nose, a long thin mouth, and fairly unusual eyes. They're naturally narrowed and thin, giving him a look that is frequently mistaken for a glare. The irises themselves are an almost blood red, which seems to add to his rather 'dark' appearance. This had been a constant reason when he was younger and in the mortal realm for whispers between the youth about him being a 'demon' -- which, well, was true.
His hair is a dark black and adds several more inches to his height. Sticking up and back in spikes, no hair touches his skin other than four small strands that don’t seem to cooperate, hanging down in his face and eyes. He wears his hair like this at all times, even when it rains or he gets drenched does it hardly seem to flatten. Sometimes he switches it up with some kind of headband around his forehead that he believes complements his look. Despite his hair's pointy appearance, however, he has quite soft hair. He will deny this though if you mention it, just how he is.
His facial expressions are another thing to notice: He always seems to be either emotionless, angry, or brooding. He rarely smiles, unless it's a smirk over an accomplishment of his, or in mocking another. Which also seems to be a pastime of his.
Arian's style consists of mostly darks and blacks. He has several variations in outfits, mostly comprised of sleeveless tops and long pants, which seem to be some kind of slacks or loose jeans. The only tight clothing he would wear, actually, would be the shirts, letting them conform to his skin. Every now and then he will wear a long sleeve shirt or a tux. He has a pair of dark tinted glasses that he likes to wear. They're not exactly sunglasses, taking the appearance more of actual glasses, but he's not blind either.
■ abilities |
■ Weapons
katana: a long katana with the hilt shaped like a scaled dragon. the sword itself seems to have a dark, demonic glow to it and gives off a sickening feeling to others. the sword itself has the ability to absorb the life force of any it touches, literally draining it out of their body and feeding it to him at a rapid pace. it works against angels and humans.
■ main
stealing touch: the ability to draw the physical and magical energy out of another being, almost as if it's being consumed, simply by touch. as long as beelzebub has physical contact with another being, he can sap the energy right out of them and take it as his own. the longer the contact, the more energy he can suck.
■ Passive
tangled web: the ability to make others believe simple illusions and lies
■ Others
unholy strength: self-explanatory
demonic change: the ability to change appearance to look like animals

■ History
Born into a wealthy family in Feudal Japan, Arian's first year of life was everything but hectic. The young baby got everything he needed without a moment's hesitation, and started to grow up a strong young boy. Whenever his mother or father weren't taking care of him, his older sister would do so instead. He was born into a highborn family, and lived in a castle where his father had many state of affairs held among the other lords of Japan. However, a year later, things would take a violent turn.
A warlord within the country set his eyes upon their castle, and promptly led an army to kill and slaughter everybody of high status in the castle. His sister quickly dressed them up as servants, and passed them off as lowborn, saving both of their lives as the warlord took over their home. Everybody they loved was dead. His sister took care of him for the next five years, yet every passing day she seemed to grow closer and closer to the warlord until rumors of them falling in love were spread. However, things would again change when Arian was six years old. A distant cousin of Arian and his sister had quickly risen to fame and in strength. He came to the aid of the castle to avenge their family, and in the battle, the warlord his sister loved lost his life. It forever changed her. She became distant from her brother, but kept an air of love and care about her.
Their cousin established base in the castle, and life, for a while, returned to normal. For the next seven years, Arian caused as much trouble as he possibly could. Without the care of parents, or a stern sister or family, he was left much on his own. He started fights in the castle, he messed with the peasants in the surrounding village, and he caused as much mayhem as a boy of his age possibly could. They started to call him a demon. A little monster. And this only fueled the growing boy's taste for destruction. But another event would put a temporary standstill to his troublemaking.
At the age of fifteen, word of his sister's plot against their cousin reached their ears. She was a spy for the enemy, for the same people that killed their parents. In anger at her lover's death, she sought revenge. Yet she would never get that far. When their cousin heard word of it, he had her promptly executed without mercy. Arian witnessed the whole thing. He was devastated at the loss of his last immediate family. Yet it fueled a quest for revenge in him as well. This was all the enemy's fault. And so, that same year, he joined his cousin's ranks and became a Samurai under his orders. He trained, and quickly became a strong warrior.
At the age of eighteen, Arian went to war with the Samurai. Battle had broken out between the two warring sides, and he fought under his cousin's banner. For a time, they were winning. But things changed, and in the sudden tide of battle, Arian nearly lost his life. When he woke up, he was chained in the enemy's encampment. At first they were going to execute him. But through several events, somehow his life was spared, and instead he instead switched sides and betrayed his cousin. Through more battle, he was eventually promoted to a commander among their army four years later.
And so he led his old enemy into war against his own countrymen. The war was brutal, and he slaughtered a majority of them, heading straight for the heart of the castle where his cousin resided. Razing the town in flames, the villagers burned as the new commander reached his cousin and put an end to his life. And so they won the war against them, and retook the castle as their own for their new leader. For the next two years, peace would once more reign... to an extent. They razed and pillaged most of the surrounding villages until none left stood to oppose them.
Yet they hadn't killed everyone. The events after this date are unknown to Arian. All he knows is that during a great feast, someone poisoned his cup of wine. As he took his final sip, much to his horror, he saw his old mentor sitting calmly across from him. Before he could even react, he suddenly dropped and everything went black....
But that's when he woke up in Hell. Through a large number of events, Arian was raised to the rank of a demon. Remaining loyal to his own sins, he grew quite fond of gluttony. Eventually he was raised to the rank of lord, and then one day, to the rank of Arch-Demon. And so he became the Arch-Demon of Gluttony. When word of Nisshoku reached his ears, and he, along with the other Arch-Demons were sent into the mortal world on this bizzare quest to try and get along with the Angels, he became the Physical Education teacher at the Academy.
