#quartum bio

Name: Quartum Averruncus

Age: Unknown, likely at least a few decades.

Classification: Inhuman and immortal construct of The Lifemaker.

Height: Unknown, seems about average young adult male human or so.

Background: The Averruncus of Fire created by The Lifemaker at an unknown point in time. He was kept in sleeping until he was needed. This time proved to be during the climactic battle between Ala Alba and Cosmo Entelecheia at The Grave Keepers Palace. He was awoken and quickly toyed with several of the enemies members, purposefully making explosions just shy of hitting their ship, slicing another ship in half, erasing one of them from the totality of existence, and impaling another with a spear of fire. It seemed the Fire Averruncus's victory was assured.

Before he could get serious and finish the job however, Negi Springfield suddenly arrived on the scene and reversed the beating, turning the tables on Quartum in a matter of moments, culminating in cutting the Averruncus in half. Giving one last glare of shock and anger toward his enemy, Quartum fell kilometers and kilometers to the ground, though not dead, he was out of the fight.

The chance for vengeance came when The Lifemaker, his lord, master, and creator of both him and the entire magical world, was unsealed. The creator god of unfathomable power then proceeded to resurrect and resummon his entire organization, Quartum included. Him and several others wasted no time in attempting to kill the exhausted Negi and Fate. He nearly succeeded until Evangeline A.K Mcdowell and the rest of Ala Rubra showed up on scene. A brief fight resulted between the two forces that ended with Evangeline freezing all of the resurrected organization, bar The Lifemaker, into an external freezing prison of her strongest magic.

Quartum remained in this state for over 7 years until his creator showed up at the site of his constructs imprisonment, freeing them all from their icy cage.

Likes: Violence, burning things, The Lifemaker, succeeding in his goals.

Dislikes: Be restricted from killing or using his full powers.

Weaknesses: Due to the fact he is restricted from killing "real" beings. Quartum usually does not use his full power against most people. While still absurdly tough on his own, Quartum loses a decent bit of durability if his barrier is broken completely, though it can be quickly repaired.

Favorite color: Doesn’t have a preference.

Favorite saying: Doesn't have one.

Nicknames: Averruncus of Fire

Future Goals: None in mind really, unsure of whnat to do with the magical world saved.

Notable Items in Possession of: Code of The Lifemaker, which allows him to channel a fraction of his lords power in various ways.

Misc Info: Due to being a construct by The Lifemaker, Quartum's physiology is nothing like a normal humans, having no organs, blood, or anything you'd expect to find in a normal being.

SKILLS POWERS: As a being created by The Lifemaker, Quartum was bestowed with immense abilities beyond those of the vast majority of any mage. Including abilities such as super intelligence, regeneration, magical power to effortlessly shatter mountains, and inhumanly complex barriers, just to name a few.

(Note, due to people at the Averruncus level not appearing much, the vast majority of the cast being weaker than them, and most of the people not in that category being stronger, the exact stats on this page are based upon some speculation, headcanons, and powerscaling from the few people who are the same level.)

Physical Stats:

Super Strength:

A power bestowed by The Lifemaker. Quartum has immense super strength, he is able to easily send people flying kilometers at a time and through heavily magically reinforced rock/steel. Characters somewhat weaker to on par with Quartum in physical strength have caused explosions that dwarf the better part of an entire island, with mountains on it, from physical strength.

Super Speed:

Quartum's super speed is such to the point that he is able to partially keep up with Raiten Taisou II Negi, until Negi fully used his super speed. Raiten Taisou II Negi possesses a combat speed of 2600 kilometers per second(Nearly mach 8000). While not exactly on his level, it is still a huge testament to the Averruncus's speed.

Close Quarters Combat/Martial Arts Mastery:

Knowledge installed into him by The Lifemaker. Quartum's martial skill level far exceeds those able to completely dominate someone faster and stronger then them for a solid 15 minutes and not get hit once. He easily has the skills of a master, both by demonstration and by presumed knowledge given to him from his creator.

Super Durability:

Par the course of all high level fighters in Negimaverse, Quartum has immense durability. This comes in 2 major sections however, his natural durability and then his power amped by his passive, complex multi-layered mandala barrier. 

With Barrier: In the latters case, the multi-layered barrier has effortlessly no sold the strongest lightning spell, Thousand Thunderbolts, when it was cast as a focused spear for piercing by Negi Springfield, before his training to battle Rakan. Attacks which destroy large mountains are nothing to Quartum's barrier.

Without Barrier: While not as durable as he is with his barrier, he is still none the less incredibly tough. Able to survive(Though rather injured) several hits from EoS Negi Springfield(Who's a tier behind his father, that did this).

High Intelligence:

Like all the other constructs, Quartum was given high intelligence, possibly genius level. However, due to the Averruncus's ability to modify their knowledge and give themselves the information of most of the things they need, one could consider Quartum functionally a genius.

Soul and mind:

Is it ambiguous if Quartum has a soul or not(I'm still debating on it). However in the event he does, it would be immensely strong, as people far below Quartum survived an ordeal of fighting for 10 days straight and dying 70 times on their soul and mind.

It is also presumably he was given a strong being by The Lifemaker, to match his physical stats.

Super Stamina:

The Stamina possessed by a construct of The Lifemaker is beyond any normal human limits, being able to fight constantly for hours upon hours, possibly even half a day or more, before beginning to get seriously tired.

Super Agility:

Quartum possesses this along with his other super stats.

High Pain Tolerance:

Quartum's body and regeneration give very high scale pain tolerance. Another Averruncus got completely slice open across his entire torso and recovered back into fighting almost instantly.

Disease, illness, poisons, ect....Immunity: 

Due to being a magical construct, thus lacking normal physiology, and being bestowed benefits by The Lifemaker, Quartum is immune to illness and poisons.

MAGICAL ABILITIES:

In addition to immense physical power, Quartum possesses great strength when it comes to the mystical and magical realm, having been bestowed power that eclipses all but the absolute strongest warriors of the magical realm.

General magic use:

Though Fire Magic is Quartum's main domain, he possesses the ability to use many more types of magic than just fire. This can range from the more mundane things(Such as, but absolutely not limited too, telekinesis, extrasensory perception, and fortune telling,), to offensive spells. However, his offensive spells not in the fire specialty, are less powerful than their fire type counterparts.

Fire Magic:

Quartum's main specialty. Being the Averruncus of Fire, Quartum is able to manipulate fire to an immense degree beyond nearly any mage. In addition, he knows all forms of fire magic in the Negimaverse. Quartum's unchanted fire is hot enough to instantly vaporize steel, a feat requiring temperatures well in the millions to do.

Mandala Barrier:

Like all mages, Quartum possesses a passive barrier. However, Quartum's barrier is different. See this page for details.

Magical Senses:

Far developed beyond what most mages are capable of. Quartum possesses magical senses that allow another version of his type(The averruncus) to easily find the true location of someone who sent a dozen of identical clones across an entire capital city, in moments.

Magical Resistance:

More or less for defensive purposes, magical resistance is used by mages to provide protection to a variety of things, ranging from temperature, illness, magical effects like illusion and hypnosis, to even limited timestop protection for the absolute top(Quartum is somewhat in this bracket of power and should naturally have higher then normal magical protection given from The Lifemaker). This can be augmented by The Code of the Lifemaker to some degree, under certain conditions.

Regeneration:

All Averruncus possess high levels of regeneration, at full strength being able to instantly heal many deep gashes across their entire torsos, or even rapidly heal against having parts of their body continuously vaporized by punches.

Immortality:

All of The Lifemaker's constructs possess hard to bypass immortality, being ageless and having immense regeneration makes them very difficult to kill. With CoTLM they become nigh impossible to kill, if given the time to set it up in advance. As they can undo erasure from existence.

Knowledge implanting:

See this headcanon

Code of The Lifemaker:

With special keys that channel The Lifemaker's divine power, one using The Code of The Lifemaker, may accomplish several mind bending feats, if they know how to use it. Quartum possesses a Grandmaster Key.

Limited Reality Warping: Those possessing the code have limited reality warping powers. This includes things like creation of matter and manipulation of anything made by The Lifemaker(Against these, it's more relative omnipotence). Those with the Grandmaster Keys(What members of Cosmo Entelecheia have) can even completely and utterly erase someone they hurt sufficiently enough, leaving no trace of them on any level of reality. They can even undo this very kind of existence erasure on themselves for defensive purposes, if it's set up in advance.

Summoning: The higher tiers of CoTLM can summon immense armies of demons, ranging into well over half a million demons. These vary in strength, some just being a bit over an average mage, to even able to effortlessly shred 100m+ rocks and be bigger then those rocks.

Teleporting: This has two functions, teleporting the user, and forcably teleporting someone else. This power even allows one to teleport transdimensionally and teleport those with protection against force relocation, while in another dimension.

STAT SUMMARY:

Destructive Power: Likely around country level or so, higher with stongest spells. Durability is a non factor against many people, due to the raw heat of his fire easily being millions of degrees.

Durability: County level, large country to possibly continental with Mandala Barrier.

Speed: Massively beyond hypersonic in base.(Can somewhat keep up with lightning form people, which move at 2600 km/s, over 17 times faster then the average speed of lightning. So high end 4 digit machs most likely.)

Range: Possibly country level by power scaling

Physical Strength: Likely around country level or so(Should have physical strength close to that some of his stronger spells)

Intelligence: Genius level. While gifted with a naturally high intellect by The Lifemaker, Quartum can instantly give himself mastery level knowledge over many things.

Stamina: VASTLY inhuman, should easily be able to fight for hours upon hours without stopping, possibly even days.

TL;DR: Super strength, speed, durability, stamina, agility, intelligence, immortality, flight, teleportation, limited reality warping*, creation*, instant large army summoning abilities*, Mandala barrier, specialized in using fire magic(Can make flames nearly as hot as nukes), can use an incredibly wide array of other spells however, can summon elemental spirits, can made weapons and constructs out of fire, master close quarters combatant, powerful soul(Possibly) and mind, regeneration, illness and poison immunity, inhuman physiology, magical resistance, magical senses, can sense and physically hurt intangible beings like spirits or elementals, able to implant knowledge into himself(See headcanons)
