Stríðsmaður

Stríðsmaður, born in Iceland out of a small remote village which was eventually overrun by a rival tribe leaving him as the lone survivor. He was forced to live off the land, forced to kill and endure the torment of nature for so many years. Eventually he managed to take revenge on the same people who had killed his friends and family but in doing so he was left to die after suffering a few broken bones as well as numerous cuts across his body. He somehow managed to summon Uriel who appeared before the latter and saved him from death. He was reincarnated as a Devil, acting as one of Uriel Abaddon's Rook's and due to his unique powers he required a Mutation Piece.

Appearance
Stríðsmaður stands at 6ft tall and weighs in at around 194 lbs. He was born with dark brown hair but due to his having lived in the wild, his hair somehow adopted a greenish color. He also was born with a few distinct tattoos which will glow when his Sacred Gear is activated or when he enters a state of rage.

Personality
Stríðsmaður may not be the brightest of the bunch but he surely knows how to put up one hell of a fight. His past has allowed him to become the fierce warrior that he is now, putting his body through torment that no child should ever bear. He tends to keep to himself but he also has a sense of humor which is noted by all his friends and comrades who gave him the nickname "Maou" because they cannot pronounce his name. When it comes to protecting his friends or the innocent he will stop at nothing, and if one were stupid enough to piss him off he would sometimes lose control of himself and ended up killing whomever enraged him without mercy. He trains hard and honors those who share his love for battle, specifically his close friend Dillon Hyoudou who isn't a battle maniac like himself but he possess immense strength which even Stríðsmaður struggles to deal with.

History
During Uriel Abaddon's first Rating Game match with his Peerage against Riser Phenex's Peerage, Stríðsmaður effortlessly defeated both of the opposing team's Rooks who underestimated his toughness.

Powers & Abilities
(Demonic Power) After his reincarnation as a Devil, Stríðsmaður was granted the powers and abilities common to all Devils, including the power to cast spells.


 * (Enhanced Strength and Defense) Due to the Rook traits of his Evil Piece, Stríðsmaður's strength and defense were enhanced significantly. This allows him to endure powerful attacks like they were nothing and even overpower certain opponents with ease. He has shown he can force Sairaorg Bael to use his Balance Breaker and go toe to toe with Issei Hyoudou in his Cardinal Crimson Promotion which otherwise is known as his Queen Form for a few minutes.

(Immense Durability) Due to having survived out in the wild for many years, Stríðsmaður body developed a sturdy layer of skin and this was further enhanced once he became a Devil. His Evil Piece further increases said durability allowing him to face and endure hits from very powerful opponents.

(Enhanced Speed) Stríðsmaður has the ability to move at great speeds which rival that of a Knight. Although he is not keen on being super fast, he can still move at speeds which in extreme cases are useable to the naked eye.

Equipment
Limit Breaker - A newly discovered Sacred Gear that Stríðsmaður was born with. It drastically enhances the abilities of the wielder far beyond what normally could be achieved. The wielder is gifted with immensely powerful physical abilities, enhanced senses, dexterity, insane reflexes and increases the speed at which their brain functions. If used properly this Sacred Gear could rival Longinus users and lower-tiered Gods. It appears as a tattoo on the wielder's upper back which will glow bright white once the Balance Breaker is activated.


 * (Deorum Bellator) Limit Breaker's Balance Breaker which translates into the Latin (Warrior of the Gods) which activates the wielder's inner desire to ascend as a Warrior. Circuit-like markings will appear all over the user which helps to contain the immense power flowing through their body. When used at full power the markings will glow bright blue and if the limit is exceeded then these markings will begin to flash with a searing red color warning the user.
 * (Aurora Deus Slayer) Maou's Sub-Specices Balance Breaker which translates into the Latin (Dawn of the God-Slayer) which transfers all of the energy flowing through Maou's body into his fists to allow for punches which rival that of Sairaorg Bael's in his Balance Breaker. Maou can also transfer this energy into any part of his body but the downside is only that specific part will be enhanced leaving the rest of his body open for attacks.

Hero's Awakening - A special ability unique to this Sacred Gear which has been deemed a forbidden move. It possess similar traits to Juggernaut Drive and Breakdown the Beast both of which have powerful creatures sealed within their respective Sacred Gears. It seems that instead of a creature being sealed within, the soul of a powerful warrior was used instead and this warrior is none other than Björn Ironside, a legendary Viking King who ruled over Sweden between the 12th and 13th centuries. Once the user activates this form, the seal on Björn's soul is removed thus granting him freedom to unleash his fury upon the world until his hosts body dies. The wielder is engulfed in a powerful blueish white aura that grants them power which is said to rival that of Gods and Satan's. It's power is so great that upon activation the aura has the capability of destroying the surrounding area. The punches from Maou in this form are capable of sending powerful aftershock air pressure waves that can knock an opponent off balance if they aren't careful and these same punches are so powerful Maou has been able to destroy the armor of Dillon Hyoudou in his Apocalyptical Thunder form. Maou can also exert his power throughout his entire body whereas in his Sup-Species Balance Breaker he could only transfer it to a single body part. While in this form, he has been able to fend off the likes of Tobio Ikuse, Cao Cao, various Angels and Devils, even the Evil Dragon Apophis fell victim to his tremendous power. Maou also stated that he and Björn came to an agreement which removed the curse on this Sacred Gear thus allowing Maou to have full control of this forms immense power instead of being consumed by Björn's intense rage. Björn stated the reason why this aura is so deadly is because it had been blessed with a forbidden spell by a past possessor which allowed the wielder to burn the flesh of whatever he touched if he choose to do so.
