Kwjaicck, defining soul of the Everstretching Truth

Kwjaicck is a name that has never been spoken by human tongue, and it is a creature that is incomprehensible to human minds. Its body, to begin with, is difficult to comprehend; it is a creature of flesh and meat that twist around themselves, that form writhing tentacles that sprout barbs and hooks, but have no shape discernable to the eye; they sprout and recede constantly and so a central body or shape to Kwjaicck as a whole is impossible to determine; it is a congeries of flesh that hurts the eye and damages the spirit.

Its mind is equally unshaped and convoluted; its words make little sense to demons or men; what none know is that it makes equally little sense to itself. Kwjaicck on his own is a ravenous creature that does not understand the concept of hunger or satiety, and so will consume if it is lucky, or do any one of countless other options that it imagines will satisfy it. It may decide that constructing a great tower is what will make it complete, or it may attempt to fly to Luna - it does not know what it wants, only that it wants it. However, if its master, Sha, ever wishes something from it, its motivation immediately switches to whatever that master desires. What's more, it grants itself the abilities it needs to fulfill the mission at hand, as it imagines them. However, its custom charms are constant and will not change with its reconfigurations.

Statistics

Attributes: 8/6/12, 0/0/0, 8/1/4

If Kwjaicck currently has a motivation from a master, it gets nine dots of social attributes to distribute as desired, and its intelligence rises to 4.

Abilities: Martial Arts 5 (clinches + 4), as well as 32 other dots distributed when granted a motivation, although no ability may be raised over 6.

Virtues: 0/0/0/5, never fails valor rolls, never succeeds at others. This changes to 12 dots distributed as chosen, when given a motivation.
Willpower: 10, 0 against its master.
Essence: 6
Essence pool: 110

Health levels: -0x14, I(No internal organs)
Soak: 12B/12L

Charms: Consumptive Desire - As a permanent effect, Kwjaicck gains three automatic successes to any roll that directly works towards its motivation.
Needs Must be Met - Kwjaicck changes itself and evolves a new organ, a new substance, something, which works towards its goal. At a cost of 12 motes, the character names something approximately as broad as a specialty. Kwjaicck gets either an equipment bonus equal to essence to rolls that pertain to that specialty or a new capability of equivalent breadth, for the duration of a scene. This could take the form of a mask-like face bursting from its flesh in order to gain the ability to speak, or claws erupting from its flesh for combat purposes.
Swallow - Kwjaicck envelops a physical object. This counts as a clinch, to which Kwjaicck adds Valor automatic successes. This is an extra actions charm; it adds one clinch and does not use up the normal action which may be a flurry. Each action that a target spends enveloped reduces its strength by 1; if it reaches 0, the creature falls unconscious. Exalts heal lost attributes from this charm at 1 dot per day.
Everywhere isn't - Kwjaicck does not suffer onslaught
Excellencies - Kwjaicck possesses the first excellency for every ability that is currently over 4.

Other notes: Kwjaicck may take a motivation from a summoner in place of one from Sha, treating all of the bonuses it grants normally. Its natural claws do +2L damage, and it soaks lethal with its full stamina.

Kwjaicck may lack the sheer power of many demons, but its incredible versatility more than makes up for it; the main reason that it is not summoned more often is that Sha does not abide the loss of his favourite servant for long, and all of the resources available to a third circle demon will be mobilized against the summoner.

Kwjaicck flies at 20 yards per tick.
