[QUOTE="Drakknyte32, post: 1461064, member: 16580"] You want a history, you got a history -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jonathan Fyne has super powers. He is one of many creatures called Nephilim and they all had super powers. His were different from most Nephilim though, he had variety that most of them couldn't come close to matching. It was because of this variety that he had managed to survive not one, but two wars against the adversary. It was also because of this variety that he had managed to live for millenia. One of the aspects of his power was the ability to sustain himself and become immune to sickness. Another was the ability to heal even severe injuries. By using the two of them he was able to keep himself in perfect health despite the passing of years. Jonathan Fyne has seen a lot of horrible things over the years. He has watched thousands of people kill each other for the mistaken belief that God wants them to. He has watched tens of thousands kill each other just for the ambition of a few men. He has watched people kill each other for greed or just because they want to. He has watched mankind destroy it's environment like a parasite and almost do the same to themselves. Yet he had seen some good in the world too. He has seen mothers lovingly raise their children. He has seen men stand for peace in the face of unbelivable adversary. He has seen geniuses conquer countless diseases and improve the lot of the whole human race. He has seen avereage people risk their lives helping others just because they thought it was the right thing to do. Most importantly, he saw that the human race was improving. It still has quite a ways to go but humanity has become closer to acting like God wished them in the last few years. There were still wars, but they were fewer and far fewer people died. They still destroyed the environment but many were working hard to save it. They still killed for greed and desire but they did so far more rarely and watched themselves to stop it from happening. Jonathan often thought that God put the fruit in the Garden of Eden because he knew that mankind would one day join him of their own will. It is that though that keeps Jonathan going through the years when he could lay down and die at any time. One day mankind will rise to heaven, and I want to be with them when they do. Jonathan spent most of his years watching humans but not living among them. He often uses his powers to help people but when he does he is invisible or wrapped in illusion. He saw much of history but rarely contributed to it himself. He believes that humanity will go back to God by itself eventually and all he has to do is make sure they don't destroy themselves before that. After the last war he has started to integrate himself back into humanity. Meeting with other Nephilims who had normal lives as well reminded him that he was still human, at least partially. He has rented an apartment and is starting to do normal human things again. He had a job but dropped it when he noticed that the adversary had returned again. Before he was a Nephilim Jonathan was a simple farmers child. When he gained his powers he fought and killed just like every other nephilim but after the war, and after watching several other wars.
