Bloodwing

Description
Bloodwing's skin is ashen; his hair is long and jet black. His hands and feet are covered in black scales that end in long blood-stained claws. His eyes glow red with hatred and madness. While Rmoncael would hide these features, Bloodwing gladly shows off his menacing visage. He wears a blood red cloak, a symbol of his victory over his hated enemy and the start of his descent into madness.

Bloodwing no longer resembles the revenant, Rmoncael, he once was. Bloodwing is cruel and insane. He is just as likely to slaughter countless innocents on a whim as he is to let one go in order to complete some diabolical scheme. He enjoys toying with his victims before absorbing their soul into one of his many cursed blades.

History
Bloodwing has many histories.

Bloodwing is his current form is the product of a series of events over the course of thirty-two years repeating themselves, in sometimes different ways. While details may vary, each repetition of history needed four main things to happen. Cyric's blade needed to be reforged. Rmoncael had to retrieve the blade. Rmoncael had to face his enemy and become indebted to Bane. Finally, Rmoncael would have to slay the current Bloodwing and gain all of the blades he carried.

As strong as Rmoncael's will and desire to protect his friends is, the pull of the sword is stronger. As long as Rmoncael has the sword, there will always be a Bloodwing.

Character Motivations
Bloodwing has three motivations, each at odds with each other.

First, there is the deep desire to protect those close to him. The desires of Rmoncael, which are almost all but gone, thanks to his madness.

Second, there is his duty to further the goals of Bane. Rmoncael sold his soul to Bane and became one of his favored in order to protect this friends. This is signified by one of his blades. No matter how many times Bloodwing has completed his time loop, he always retains exactly one copy of the Bane-Tainted sword.

Finally, there is the most sinister part of his motivations. The sword is a holy artifact endowed with the power of Cyric. Try as Bane might, he could not quell Cyric forever. Eventually, the sword breaks itself of Bane's control, and Cryic is able to exercise his will on the material plane by means of the sword and through Bloodwing. Being chained to the Supreme Throne, the amount of influence he can exert is minuscule. This is where the time loop comes in. By repeatedly going back in time and ensuring that Rmoncael gets another copy of the sword, Bloodwing is ensuring his continued existence, his continued growing strength, and the growing influence of Cyric. Each repetition of the loop, however, damages Bloodwings psyche further, and gives Cryric that much more control over the revenant.

Bloodwing in Battle
Bloodwing is a fearless and insane entity. He is just as likely to face overwhelming odds on a whim as he is to have clever scheme. This unpredictability coupled with his overwhelming strength makes his a truly fearsome enemy.

Through his repeated tampering with the time stream, Bloodwing now wields multiple copies of the sword that slew Mystra, and his mastery of the vile blades is second to none, save the sword's true master. With the memories and combat skills of Rmoncael guiding the blade's awesome might, Bloodwing fears no opponent.

Bloodwing will generally open with the devastating Soul Steal power of the sword and kill his opponents at his leasure. If the opponents prove to be too powerful, though, he will not fight a losing battle. He will tap into the powers of another copy of the sword and escape.
