Appearance
The First Primortal has spent innumerable days and nights on the field of battle wearing his Haori and full helm. It is said that he his eyes have no pupils, or that they are red, white, or solid black. Others say he has no face- that the helm is now a part of him. The helm itself is polished silver and forged to shape perfectly around Ikatsu's head but cover his eyes, nose, and mouth.
His Haori, taken from an vanquished opponent many centuries ago, is solid white, trimmed in thread-of-mithral patterns around the cuffs, collar, and hem. A spell repelled by its wards causes it to briefly take on a golden appearance.
Ikatsu is immensely tall, standing seven and one-half feet and weighing 230 pounds. His extreme leanness belies his ferocity in battle.
Backstory
Ikatsu is the final step of devolution of godhood before mortalhood. He is one of three Primortals (a male cleric and a female sorceror round out the bunch) created by the over-dieties during the systematic creation of all Beings. This process began with the greater deities and ended with the basest of living things. Along the way, immortal beings of the non-Prime Material planes were created to serve the gods (directly or indirectly) while the subsequent sentient mortals were created to be worshippers of the gods.
As a Primortal, he is the least of all celestials -the next closest thing to being mortal- but is nevertheless immensely respected among them. Solars venture to his battlefield to test their mettle against him. To date, he has never lost a duel.
He currently resides in Acheron where he directs the mindless armies in endless battle and hones his skill with the katana in a ceaseless cycle of ascending, achieving ascention, and reascending. If Ikatsu served any diety, it would be the god of war, but only indirectly through his constant battles.
