Samael's Chronarch Form - "Mechanicus"

Samael Michael Thaumiel (formerly Durante Gray) is a Thulcandran Chronarch from the planet of Thulcandra - an alternate-future version of Earth. He is the leader of House Thaumiel within the planet's aristocratic hierarchy. His Chronarch title is known as "Mechanicus".

Summary

Mechanicus was born as Durante Gray on an alternate Earth in the 21st century. After a cosmic disaster left the Earth in tatters, he and the rest of humanity were exposed to primordial energies from beyond - which seemingly saved them.

He and the rest of humanity were altered by the event, becoming stronger, faster and most importantly - smarter; much smarter than before. Durante especially developed incredible levels of intelligence - leading him to create the first Thulcandran technologies.

After helping to stabilize the planet after the cosmic cataclysm - Earth was renamed Thulcandra; with humans being renamed as Thulcandrans.

Soon after the cosmic event, Durante would go on to guide Thulcandrans towards an era of peace and stability - founding Thulcandran society and establishing the core principles and tenets of their civilization.

Soon after gaining a greater understanding of the nature of the space-time continuum, Durante would then establish the Chronarch Order in conjunction with his older sister, Amelia.

In accordance with their new positions, they retroactively designated themselves the first members of House Thaumiel - the "Twins of God".

Eventually however, the Thulcandrans would be faced with a powerful threat - beyond their initial capabilities. In their haste, they soon left their native universe, taking their local solar system with them.

Soon they would find a new universe to hide in - until a means of countering their greatest threat would finally appear.

Powers & Abilities

Thulcandran Physiology

Thulcandrans are evolved human beings with millions of years of artificial selection guiding their development. As such, they have access to supernatural powers and abilities far beyond that of normal humans.

Supernatural Intelligence

The defining trait of Thulcandrans. They are several orders of magnitude more intelligent than human beings. Capable of parallel processing and other cognitive abilities that far exceed those of human beings.

Thulcandrans also have much more neurally dense brains than humans do - allowing for the storing and encoding of information to a much greater degree.

Gene Manipulation | "Regeneration"

A process created by Samael's older sister - Rafael. Regeneration is the ability of a Thulcandran to psionically manipulate their own DNA. They have a 3rd DNA strand that's designed to maintain continuity between their alterations for this reason.

When significantly damaged, Thulcandrans can "regenerate" into a different appearance - releasing massive quantities of energy as they do so. A Thulcandran can regenerate an indefinite number of times.

Superhuman Physical Characteristics

Thulcandrans are much stronger, faster, more agile and more durable than human beings are. They also have superhuman senses which humans do not posses.

As a result of their evolved physiology, Thulcandrans are highly resistant to radiation and other forms of conventional danger.

Thulcandrans can also live for a very long time - thousands of years before they show any signs of aging from their prime.

Psionics

Thulcandrans, due to their prolonged exposure to cosmic energies in their past - have developed a genetic form of psionics.

Chronarch Physiology

Chonarchs are Thulcandrans who have been exposed to the primordial energies that saved their society - to a much greater degree.

A further evolution of a basic Thulcandran - Chronarchs are the elite of Thulcandran society, and dictate all aspects of their civilization.

They also possess abilities far beyond that of a normal Thulcandran.

Temporal Characteristics

Chronarchs have a 4th strand of DNA, temporally engineered and designed to give him a high degree of resistance to time manipulation. This grants Chronarchs the ability to perceive time in a rudimentary sense.

Chronarcs are also able to recognize localized instances of time manipulation - such as temporal loops and slow-downs. They are also able to negate the effects of these temporal manipulations on themselves.

Evolved Supernatural Characteristics

Further augmentation of the body has allowed Chronarchs complete psionic control over all subatomic particles, atoms and molecules that comprise their general form. This allows for Chronarchs to display various abilities that exceed those of standard Thulcandrans.

Items & Equipment

Trans-Temporal Carrier (TTC)

The hallmark achievement of dimensional engineering by Chronarch Society. TTCs are large, higher-dimensional constructs with three-dimensional "shells" or casings. They're complex machines that double as vehicles and are capable of moving through any point in physical space.

They are also capable of movement through time - to a degree. Although TTCs are more hesitant to move through time - due to the intervention of unforeseen forces.

Notes

  • Samael and the rest of House Thaumiel are named after the Archangels.
  • Samael's surname comes from the Qliphoth.
  • Samael's older sister, Rafael - isn't known well by the Thulcandran public at large.
    • Samael is hesitant to say anything about her as well.
  • Samael's "brother", Gabriel - is a perfect clone of him, created as part of an experiment with their creation chambers.
  • Samael calls himself "Virgil" on Earth - as a reference to the famous Roman poet.
    • He seems himself as guiding the planet - putting it on a better path.
