Haroli U. Al-Hashimi

"You are of my line boy, I can tell. You may have been born a Barvadekar but the blood of a Upalekar runs through your veins. All that power and you have just only begun to scratch the surface of what your capable of."

Created & Written by K. A. Crawford

(a.k.a. The Golden-Eyed Demon)

Physical Description

Physical quirks

Haroli has great long black hair, he usually keeps it tied up when he is trying to focus or in a fight, but if he is relaxed or sleeping, he lets it down. Thinks it makes him look mysterious.

Special abilities

Inherited Technique: SHIVA

Haroli, like his mother, was born with Shiva, Eyes of Destruction, one of the Al-Hashimi Inherited Techniques. It allows him to destroy magical energy in living beings at a moderate rate, provided he has an unobstructed line of sight. He can also summon the Avatar of Shiva which excels at destruction and offensive power.
 

Majestic Astra: Between Heaven & Earth

Haroli unlocked his Majestic Astra, Between Heaven & Earth, which allows him to teleport to any location in the cosmos via astral projection and summoning his body there afterward. This ability is also useful for long-range astral projection in general and is an exceedingly powerful and useful ability. One that Haroli makes heavy use of in combat to keep his enemies on their toes.

Mage State

Haroli learned Mage State from his grandfather, SINBAD. In Mage State, Haroli receives a massive boost to his Magical Energy and power and can maintain it for 25 minutes straight at the height of his power. Haroli also received the Earthly Armor of Heavenly Rites from his grandfather SINBAD as well. It is a Celestial Treasure that can only be worn by Familairs or Mages in their Mage State. It automatically provides a perfect defense against any attack, but only one type of attack at once. If Haroli is attacked with Fire and Water at once, the armor will only provide a defense against Fire for the duration of the attack, as it is the more dangerous of the two.

When Haroli Summons his Avatar of Shiva, he will often equip it with the Earthly Armor of Heavenly Rites to boost it's defense and usefulness in combat, making his Shiva Avatar particularly dangerous to deal with.

Apparel & Accessories

  • Har has Golden circular earrings on his left ear, three in total, given to him by his mother at different stages in his life, once when he was a child, again when he was just a boy, and finally when he was a man.

Specialized Equipment

Cursed Demon Sword: Inferunoshinfonī

Cursed Demon Sword: Inferunoshinfonī is a powerful magical weapon used by Haroli for a short amount of time during his life. It is a demon blade weapon that, once used, boosts the user's power and abilities but slowly begins to drive them insane. Haroli, at the height of his power, could only use this weapon for about 30 minutes before he had to put it away. It was rather large and Haroli carried it on his lower back.
 

Fire & Fury

Haroli was gifted two Talwar swords by his master, Fire, and Fury, two weapons he made regular use of in his adventures. Fire was enchanted with powerful Pyrokinetic properties and Fury had a few unique Enchantments that boosted his stamina and agility. When used together, they complimented each other quite well. The faster Fury allowed the user to move, the stronger the flames from Fire became, and the stronger the flames from Fire became, the faster Fury allowed the user to move. He used these primarily and kept them attached to his sides.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Haroli was born to Manjistha Al-Hashimi, a notorious Pirate and Mage, wanted by the Imperium, Commonwealth, and every power and faction in between. She gave birth to her son on Planet Canin, a world she and her crew were currently raiding when she suddenly felt the baby coming. Haroli was born into war and was named by Manjistha's first mate, K'hree.    Haroli grew up trained by his mother and her cut-throat pirates who all collectively raised the young boy. Haroli quickly took to combat and Majik, being able to keep pace with some of the mid-tier fighters of the crew at the ripe old age of 12. The boy was a prodigy and his mother's pride and joy. In time, Manjistha began to take Haroli with her on missions and he found his place fighting by his mother's side.   However, on one mission, Haroli had suffered his first major defeat on a mission, nearly being killed by an enemy soldier, save by his mother who lost her arm in the process. This event shattered Haroli, blaming himself for her loss. This was only amplified by what happened next; Manjistha sent Haroli away to train and live with the Knights of the Iron Order.

Education

Haroli was trained by his mother and her crew for basic Majik and combat functions, quickly taking to hand-to-hand combat over weapon-based techniques. This was amplified when he was taken by the Iron Order and trained under his Master, Lady 5th. It was here that he developed his signature skill with twin blades and really began to mix his two fighting styles with his pyro-based majik.

Morality & Philosophy

None are as aggressive or brutal in a fight as Haroli, but under normal circumstances, one would not suspect this. He isn't particularly violent and will not usually act out unless directly provoked. This usually won't elicit a response either as Haroli has been described as quite lazy, he only truly engages an enemy seriously if he views them as a worthy opponent or in extreme situations. Otherwise, he is more likely to ignore or laugh at provocateurs than fight them.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Haroli wants to be a warrior, like his mother, but he also seeks to restore glory and honor to his family's name, the Al-Hashimi. They were dishonored 100 years ago and have become the hated enemy of the cosmos. Haroli doesn't much care for what others think of him, but the idea of a legacy does interest him very much. From his mother, he gained a deep respect and love for his family and their long convoluted history. He wants this same legacy for his own children one day, a legacy they don't need to be ashamed of.

Likes & Dislikes

Haroli has Arachnophobia, the intense fear of spiders, or spider phobia. They make his skin crawl and cause him to gag, especially if they look him in the eyes with their 8 eyes. If pushed, Haroli can perform against spiders, as he has encountered a scary number of large spiders on his travels, but would honestly rather leave them to another member of his team.   On the other hand, his favorite breakfast food is a type of fruit/ vegetable blend which he claims to provide him with all the energy he needs for the day but his fellow Knights find it foul-smelling and off-putting.

Religious Views

Haroli's mother was extremely religious, something Haroli never really truly cared for but practiced and still does to this day. He respects his mother's teachings because doing the act is far more important than believing in it to her.   Haroli has a unique diet, one devoid of meat, a vegetarian. However, in extreme situations where such luxuries are not possible, Har will eat meat if there are no other options available. At his home base, Haroli has a special chamber separate from his room which holds a small shrine where he prays and makes food or item sacrifices, usually 3 times a day. This space is opened to all members of the Outriders and they can often be found here praying with Haroli or meditating with him.

Hobbies & Pets

Haroli has a pet turtle stolen from planet Earth by his mother, its name is Gregory and its species can live up to 900 Years. Next to his weapons, Haroli holds this above all else and keeps Gregory in a magically sealed and protected habitat in his room. Turtles are also his favorite animal.

Relationship Reasoning

Etsuko and Har, despite being worlds apart, have similar beliefs and values; strong commitment to family, and maintaining an internal balance through meditation and reflection. Har is blunt and rambunctious while Etsuko is calm and has a dry sense of humor. When the chips are down and all bets are off, there is no one they'd rather rely on than each other.

Quotes & Catchphrases
"I'm too cute for you, stupid."

"Don't much care for things like that, if I can be honest. I'm a warrior, I live for the battle and the glory of the fight. Don't complicate your life by trying to be something you just aren't. Find your truth, and live it."
