The Story so far...
______________________________________
Well as you know, cal's the king of the goblins and Emperor of the Gob Empire he finally established. After the war, efforts by cal have been made to repair the damaged southern portion of the empire; along with this cal hopes to begin implementing construction of the empires infrastructure and state amenities. All this is to be done, as by cal's royal decree, without the use of slave labor. Goblin tradition allows and enforces the ideal of slavery and making defeated enemies your slaves. This little act has cal's power base shaken. He remains king by goblin war rite of course, but there are several malcontents. Seeing an opportunity in this, the greater daemon Marbas, Cal's master and patron daemon, decides it’s high time to strike at Cal while he has the chance. You see, cal had been refusing Marbas' orders since he got his country up and running, ending the war prematurely and not moving further east and capturing more kingdoms, risking a continental war outbreak. There are several more instances where cal disregards the daemon's whims and as such he has fallen out of favor with the patron. Since any attempt on cal's life directly by Marbas has been thwarted by Mae's angelic gift to cal and his binding to her through his other gauntlet, Marbas had been looking for an indirect way to bring the mighty war-king down. He found his mark in cal's most trusted legion champion, Nerosis Deximus Heronimus. Heronimus had proven his worth a thousand times over in the fires of battle for cal, and as such cemented himself a position almost second in command of the regimental armies. In time Marbas comes to him with a promise of supreme power- Heronimus is loyal at first, but soon he finds himself marching to the tune of Marbas' sweet callings. The daemon set Heronimus on his way to dethrone cal and have him executed for treason and a perversion of the gob's old ways. This almost worked, although cal was solely responsible for a great deal of good deeds done in the name of the empire and as such there were still loyalists to the current crown in the tribunal shaman courts and elder councils. But after the failure of coercion at the end of the blades of extremist parties loyal to Commander Heronimus, a coup de tat was staged and cal was seized by the traitorous champion. The king seemed impossible to capture till Heronimus hit upon an idea. Getting to Cal’s beloved Jani before him, the traitorous captain used the poor girl as leverage; cal had no choice but to cooperate if he didn’t want to see the girl harmed. He was brought before a military tribunal to face sentencing. To much Heronimus' surprise the goblins pushed for cal to be sentenced to exile. They deemed exile to the great park zone to be a sentence worse than death. After a sound and torturous beating in transit, cal was dumped at the outskirts of the southern half of the park, near the coast. The team that had dropped him there were all armed with the advanced weaponry (read: guns) cal had developed for his army and without any of his armor and his monstrous side caged, cal was forced deep into the park's forest at the beck of rocket dart fire and bolter hail. So now, lost and alone without a scrap of real ordinance, the former war-king must drag himself back up and gather himself for his coming revenge on Heronimus and the traitor legion who bought into a daemons trickery. Marbas would pay for this. You could count on that…

Current Biostats of Subject 346:

Given Name: Cal (Calvin Maxwell Galloway)
Actual Name: Calantus Armas
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 269 lbs.
Race: Half Wood Elven, Half Rashan Hume (Human haling from the deserts of the Rashandas plane)
Blood Type: AB
Voice: American Southerner - semi deep
Hair Type: Black, medium length and messy
Skin: Pale (mutation due to hybridization)
Face: Intense, and square jawed with near permanent 5 o'clock shadow, scar across his right eye
Eye Color: Mud brown, infection causes eyes to shift to silver however.
Body Style: Heavy and well muscled- stocky, but not massive. Post infection he has gained some more muscle definition, especially in the arms. His body bears the scars of more battles than cal cares to admit to now due to his warlord position.
_______________________________________
Apparel:
________________________________________
Head: Closed helm adorned with rams horns (only worn in full out proper battle)
Body: reproduction of a beautiful brazed curiass with Cal's insignia set into a center motif, flanked by a pair of rearing hell hounds in silhouetted relief. The metal looks to be some sort of burnished bronze, but bears slightly more durability- as if tempered like steel. The leather under the armor is well worn and oiled to a fine fit for the warlord. although below all this he still wears his old ragged black shirt.
Shoulders: stored under the left shoulder guard theirs a radio he hand built for comms in the field, he also has a pair of Phyrexian pauldrons containing twin urns of flowstone. The pauldrons likewise bearing the immaculate metalwork of the curiass. one bears the visage of a ram's head skull with hollow eyes. All of which made in intricate detail, swirling patterns etched into the metal. The other pauldron however is made in the like of a Cerberus, mouths agape so as to let free flow of flowstone. in both pauldrons theirs a clasp in the back for opening the storage cells for flowstone canisters. both pauldrons also have strips of cut leather hanging down as not so much armor, but as tasteful accents.
Wrists: his left hand has a strange bracelet on it with a blue gem set into the back of his hand, while his right likewise has a red gem set into it.- when cal uses his magic, the gems will glow and give off the silhouette of a version of the Evincar’s imperial seal. The gems magnify Cal’s natural affinity for red and blue type mana manipulation. Augmentation no doubt gathered from the 4th sphere artificers on Phyrexia. Artifacts require more study to understand the full extent of their power. on his right arm however theirs a leather bracer laced up over it and a set of heavy chains wrapped round that and locked in place. The left although displays left over hunks of metal still buried deep in Cal's arm from Marbas' Gauntlet. theres also the remnant seal of Marbas branded into Cal's arm in the center of all that twisted machinery still buried inside him. apparently when combined with the proper array the seal opens a flow of hellfire that used to fuel the gauntlet. Its unfortunate that cal has no way of tapping into this ability however, much less controlling the hellfire's power.
Hands: swirling black tattoo’s adorn his hand with red and blue accents respectively. The subject’s tattoos look to be old magic ideograms of some sort. Their purpose is as of unknown at this time.
Legs: A tattered dull maroon armored skirt drapes down over a pair of armored greaves at a jaunty angle. on his hip, a field pack rests filled with Cal's supplies so as to off set the weight of the Boltpistol while its in its holster. under the well shaped greaves Cal simply wears some practical black pants, made more for comfort and ease of movement than fancy looks. there happens to be a hidden combat knife behind the jaunty armored skirt on the left thy's armor plate for just in case situations.
Feet: Rathi armored fleshstone boots, deep bronze in color with beautiful relief work down on the outside edges. The boots also seem to aid in agility in some way. No further knowledge exists however. In any case the armored boots are armored in a segmented fashion and very much resilient with much maneuverability left available to the wearer.
Jewelry: Cal isnt the type to bother with necklaces and such- the lummox believing it more of a chick thing to wear pretty objects with no function. He does however hold a small silver tag he always has with him from his Jani (Zombie_Girl) that he never lets anyone see.

Sabre Gene Infection notes
_____________________________________________________________
Infected by Feela in her past incarnation. Cal was attempting to help her in defusing a mass of infected bodily tissue that was burred at the bottom of the park lake when feela was locked in a human state. When Calantus dove to the bottom of the lake the slime attacked him and managed to seep through his flowstone dive-suit and re-breather, infecting and mutating not only his genetic structure but also effect him on the magical level, the illness reacting with the ever present enchantments left on cal's soul from mathias when he was a baby, causing the infection to grow unstable and to reform with his body should he ever die again.
(Visual reference by me, check out my gallery on machlavellian.deviantart.com)
Abilities gleaned in this form are as follows
-enhanced muscle and bone density
-partially elastic limbs due to bunching of muscle tissue, subjects will be able to dislocate their bones and sling limbs out.
-growth of tendrals and modified tenticles comeing from spinal region on back due to muscle fiber bundles snapping free and growing rapidly.
-skin gains no durability
-jaw spits at base to allow for the mouth to open wider and intake much larger peices of flesh
-massive claw comes from mutating the bone structure of the arm, meaning the claws are more horn than nail. used primarily as an impaling weapon, the brunt can easily be used as blunt force trauma weapon.
-eyes, wounds, and exposed parts will leak a magical black substance akin to blood, but far more caustic
-black substance can be used in sanguimancy and umbermancy like his father victor_armas, turning calantus into an ambush predator. can meld into shadows and apear from another. darkness will increase these abilities
-can launch a barrage of barbed tendrils from his armored opposite hand, the things easily capable of rending a man in half
-due to increased mass, cal is unwieldy at times and has need of extra force to speed up or slow down.
-intelligence remains, but much of the upper brain's restraints are overridden by the lower brains primal drives. causes cal to become highly aggressive if not held in check.

Known Contacts:
_________________________________________
Victor Armas- Cal’s teacher and Biological father. Calantus has learned to hate victor for what he did in the past and his current lack of care for him. the warlord looks upon his father's betrothal to Silver a betrayal to his real mother's memory. typical father/son angst.
Sashi- Bunny Demon subject met upon first contact, she acts as his guardian more or less to make sure he doesn't do anything stupid- or used to. The pair have gotten into fights constantly. Sashi was the cause of cal’s first death and original trip to hell
Hannah Heroin- rock musician subject met upon his exit of the burning hell. Made fast friends with her- but due to Hannah’s bandmate Sydney, she has fallen out of favor with the subject. Possible moral confusion on the part of the subject.
Sydney- What more could be said of the goaty dhampire? He was for a long time the only real friend cal had after saint's betrayal and his banishment to hell. Upon syd becoming Sadira X Mortus's pet however, cal regretfully kept syd at arms length for fear that his new master would use syd to get to know Cal's weaknesses and perhaps knock him out of his bid for control of the continent of Vlaz.
Saint Q- The deranged creator nemesis, saint. at one time her and cal could be seen as close friends. of course it was cal always tagging after the far more flamboyant artist. Its was a sad day when the girl changed herself into a dhampire and devoured cal as her first meal- Cal's never really been able to put the act out of mind. This being especially due to how hell bent loyal he was to her at one time, hell even so far as to say the young artist had a crush on her. In the end things between the pair degenerated to the point where Cal only looks at her with mild contempt as he does most existence these days, relishing her misfortunes as of late. It can be said that the pair are less hostile with one another now- but its more of a quiet loathing for one another. He hates her cause he doesnt know how to deal with her, and he assumes she hates him on account of him being a warmongering asshole.
Amanda Starr- Assassin and Jill of trades, Amanda managed to befriend cal well enough during the time when the mage was living in his miserable shack. he offered her what little food and shelter he had out of the kindness of his heart. later on, after she had vanished from him for quite some time he ran into her once more. after impressing him, Amanda was made Cal's 1st battalion captain. Although this opportunity was pissed away, cal supposes she's still alright.
Feela- Feela was another crush of Cal's. she was also the cause of his saber gene infection. she betrayed his trust and always worked to put him down and try and bring the monstrous saber worf out of him and eventually ended up driving cal away from her causing him to grow cold and bitter. cursing her very name for what he claims was her fault.
Minith- A relatively new friend of Cal's whom of which was another creator or sorts. Although not as potent, her skills were indeed impressive to the big ape. in thanks for one of their meetings she gave cal his own blank template puppet to augment his own failing creator power, the puppet to become Cal's 4th creation- Iris.
