Biography:
The son of a middle eastern immigrant father and a native woman, he grew up a poor rancher in the rural regions of Venezuela. The elder of two children, he was incredibly protective of his younger sister as they grew up. Things were always hard, though his family was always close. When the virus initially hit their ranch was amongst the first wave, sparing none of their animals. Panic ensued amongst the community. Amongst the starting riots both parents were lost. The siblings clung to each other, his sister having been left behind by her husband with their young child. He barricaded them into their home and fortified the perimeter against the rioting, looting people who threatened them. Still, disease found it's way to them in the form of an infected attacker. The child fell first, lasting no more then 3 days of continual suffering before succumbing to the plague. With his sister now infected due to caring for her son, Yashok fled to the nearest city to look for help. What he found was desolation and chaos. The infected and possible carriers were being cut down in the streets. The infected were fighting back and taking out the healthy. It was pure madness. He was forced to fight, taking the lives of those who had once been friends and acquaintances and even clients. Blood now on his hands, he took to looting the places he could before returning to his home, only to find he was too late. The building had been burned to the ground, leaving nothing behind. For a long time he raged. He joined those who took to living underground, his rage against those suppressing them growing by the day. When the seven domes were finally completed, he had already separated himself from humanity in his own mind. The humans living in the dome didn't deserve the lives of luxury they were being handed on silver platters. They had done nothing for anyone but themselves their entire lives. He became the leader of his own raiding party, Anything to strike a blow to the rich bastards who had encased themselves in their precious domes.
The first indication that something was changing within him was the change in his eyes, which brought about a drastic increase of his ability to see in the dark. When his hair went blue the whispers of power began to flow through him. His ears grew long and his teeth sharp, even his nails changed to claws on his hands.With his changes becoming obvious he left the rebellion behind, taking the mutants he could with him as he fled further into the wilderness, deep underground. Amongst all this he noted he had begun to have control over his own form, able to change it at will. Of course, there were limitations. He could not change into others, only into what he would have been in that form. Along those lines he noted he was able to merge himself with the shadows, which pleased him ever so when he began to use it to his advantage in the raids. With his new ability he gained a weakness against the sun's light, shunning it altogether and only moving out from underground when night had fallen. Those around him could see the significant change in his behavior long before he took to keeping the wings and tail. He became a demon. Rough, unmerciful, and animalistic in nature, his rage always just below the surface.
