The Twilight and Shadow Servant

Yes, I do hate myself, thank you.

This is more of a project in finding out just what does happen to an Abyssal that redeems? So for lack of a better example, here is The Twilight and Shadow Servant, who gains resonance whenever his best friend (a Solar, of course) calls his name. As you might expect, he gains a lot of resonance. Here he is at the beginning of his Exaltation, as a starting Abyssal.

(He's in 1ED until I figure out how to convert him relatively painlessly.)

Description

The Twilight and Shadow Servant is a young man with stark white hair and pale skin. His eyes are washed-out blue that are alternately kind and cruel. He wears a tight-fitting red-and-black bodysuit and soulsteel armor, and carries a soulsteel reaper daiklave at his side.

Personality

Ambitious and cruel, the Servant spends most of his time brooding over what he lost when he forsook the land of the living for the power of the dead. He still finds himself thinking about his youth with his close friends on an island far to the West with some regret, but knows he can never go back. Now, finding himself in internal as well as external conflict, he is willing to sacrifice his very soul for a taste of the power that will let him survive in the cruel world outside.

History

Born an only child in a small, close-knit community in the West, the Servant spent his childhood in a virtual paradise, separated from the outside world by miles of ocean. However, wanderlust soon consumed him, and he planned to build himself a small boat and find out what lay beyond the ocean in front of him.

However...

An odd storm approached, too quick and too loud to be ignored
