Nilrem (World Walker)

Nilrem
Nilrem is a major villain of the World Walker stories. He is an ancient near immortal who serves the evil demon lord of Hell-Beta, Ba'al.

Origins
Nilrem was a man from an ancient civlization, born in 989 B.C. When he was thirty, in 959, he noticed one recurring theme in his civilization. Might made right. Men controled slaves, both were controled by Kings, and all of them bent to the wills of gods and demons. So Nilrem, not satisfied with his current livings, and was tired of the gods not listening with his prayers, dabbled in with dark arts.

Rather then go to temple with his family, he locked himself in his chambers and do evil dark magic, in order to gain the favor of the demon world instead. After months of these actions, he finally got a responce.

The demon lord Ba'al has offered his services, but there were two problems. One, a sacrifice must be made, and two, Ba'al was imprisoned in his Hell dimension by the man the Hebrews called Abraham. Nilrem had an idea, so that he could give the sacrifice.

He said to Ba'al that if he gave him powers that moment, he would give Ba'al his whole village as a sacifice. Ba'al excepted to the terms. So it began. Nilrem used his new dark powers to slaughter his village for Ba'al. People prayed to the gods, hid in their homes, but nothing stopped him. Among the deceased, included his friends and his own blood, his wife, his son, even his parents.

Now Nilrem has the aid of Ba'al on his side. Centuries and millennia passed, and he has caused atrosities across time and space. Sacrificing countless opponents to Ba'al, and many innocents.

But in the modern day, he tried to unleash demons from the Pandora-Hell, only for a young man to defeat his army. This boy was Todd...and he is currently the only thing in his and Ba'al's way on Multiversal domination.

Personality and Appearence
Nilrem's physical appearence is pretty much that of a Vincent Prince look-alike (ironic since he was on Earth long before said actor), with dark hair and his natural grey eyes have become a shiny ember color. He tends to wear shiny, black, leather shoes, and a fancy suit and cloak.

Nilrem oozes out an aura of evil, and is a powerhungry, would be univeral conquerer. Cunning, and intellegent, Nilrem can plot plans that can span for hundred of thousands of years, he's been doing this since before the Birth of Christ. He has no problem with killing innocent people, or killing in general. He's a monsterous being who would stab any human (or superhuman) ally in the back. The only being he's loyal to, is Ba'al.
