OBEY.

Bringer of death!             Taker of lives! Rhaast if you're in a hurry..

》 all the greyish black bits are metallic in nature and effectively are similar to exoskeleton . He still has some areas of flesh (any red areas) but the grey is tough and sharp.

》 because of this , he cannot smile or frown or emote well facial feature wise. this does not stop him from being very apparent about whether he would be smiling or scowling . His 'smiles' often involve the click of his teeth .

》 his feet are digitigrade && end in 4 claws which can be spread but most often are together into a single point.

》 has a tail. Like alien xenomorph esque tail.

》 he can purr & it is powerful enough to make you vibrate if you're close enough.

Rhaast has been quiet for a while now. It’s never a good sign, but Kayn finds himself enjoying the stolen moments of peace all the same. He enjoys it even though he knows the peace must end — that it will end, in fire and blood and screaming, but to not enjoy the quiet periods would mean that Rhaast had stolen those away from him too. Which he hasn’t. Clearly. 

                                                                                      Still, when Rhaast’s consciousness starts as a ripple in his mind, Kayn’s stomach twists and his shoulders tighten like he’s ready for a fight. The voice in his ear makes his head twitch as he suppresses the instinct to look towards the noise a moment too late. Kayn’s expression tightens, hardening around his eyes and in the corners of his mouth as he tries to wrest control back, but Rhaast’s power swells and bursts like a blister, and Kayn flinches away from the metallic claws against his cheek. He glances self-consciously around, trying to collect himself before responding. “If you had anything of value to say, perhaps I would listen to you for a change.” But his voice is taut as a wire as he tries to maintain control. Finally, his gaze flicks to Rhaast, full of fury.

                                                                                        It’s true that he’s itching for a fight, to feel skin and bones give way under his hand, but he has his orders. Still, staying in the Thanjuul temple, washing floors and going on the odd hunting mission does little to slake the bloodlust that shivers just beneath his skin. “There is more to this life than killing, you know. Perhaps you ought to pick up a book, put something in that empty head of yours. Say something useful for once! It’s always give in, Kayn, and let’s kill something, Kayn. Don’t you ever shut up?”

♚ ❝ ohh . . . ❞

 sound is growled , and he chuckles , a deep && bassy sound as he simply tilts his head , unblinking gaze glaring at Kayn . clawed hand seizes the assassin's jaw , a very real seeming pressure applied as he gripped him , leaning closer so that maw nearly bumped into the other's face .

       ❝ are we feeling bold today ? you don't have the upper hand right now , kayn . i do . ❞

 grip upon jaw slips , and the darkin straightened up , purring contentedly in the face of furious glare . ❝ oh , please . when was the last time you read a book ? i know you agree with me ! you miss the bloodshed , the feeling of triumph as our blade splits through another foolish mortal who dares to step up . ❞ as he speaks , his hands lift , settling upon shoulders as claws opted to dig in ; grip tight && iron . his mockery is delivered in mirth , but the monster slowly seems to leer .

  ❝ you are alone , now . you are MINE . here , since you are so desperate , i will tell you something useful . ❞ he leans now ,  jaws parting as they came close to the side of the assassin's head , unrelenting in his grip which surely would feel as though it were truly crushing despite the fact the darkin wasn't at all there .

        ❝   the longer you struggle to resist me , the more it will hurt . I am the only one here for you . the only one that cares . through my power , you feel confident  — ohh , but without me , you would be insignificant . you and i both know that . you cannot separate from me , because you know this . the world cares not for you . if you had DIED upon grasping me , you would have been swiftly forgotten ... but here we are , and you still struggle . ❞

       he DRAGS his claws down Kayn's arms , as agitated scoff is given before he leans back again .

LIKE FOR A STARTER .
