Aminus is the protagonist of the grimdark action series The Archaic, an edgy, short, nihilistic and evil wraith with the objective of taking down every major government in the world after learning they were responsible for a secret service of child soldiers, but despite this seemingly noble motive, the world isn't flowers…
Biography[]
In the year 1936, Germany created a camp underground where they'd train children to become almighty soldiers, and the world governments thought that would be a great thing to do, starting to train orphans since no one would miss them. 30 years later, Aminus, also known as N1 was born and taken care of by the facility that trained orphans in the name of the US government for 16 years. His last trial was having to win a fight against the remaining 30 orphans of his block, all the same age and having the same training as him. After killing each and every orphan, he was sanctioned to a higher level of the facility, where he had his first glimpse of The Archaic Malice, a sword that via first sight instantly formed a connection with Aminus. When most of the workers were asleep, he went to the room where it was being guarded and stole the sword, but his caretaker was on his tracks and caught him in the act. In desperation he activated the dark flare of the Archaic Malice, but although it ended up destroying the whole room and the caretaker, Aminus was also killed by the blast and sealed inside of the Archaic Malice. 8 years later, he broke free from the sword and massively more powerful than before. After coming back, he went on a quest to destroy all the demons coming from the hellholes on Earth and then destroy the world governments as revenge, doing the former in a span of just 8 weeks, doing so all alone and discovering a powerful armor fit for him. After doing so, he absorbed the power of the armor into his base form and went on a 3 week quest to destroy all the world governments, awakening an ancient God that was residing inside Mount Everest, who is also called Everest himself. But even the power of an ancient God could not compare to Aminus’, and after completing his objectives, he went to rule the world to shape it in his image, for nobody else was more powerful than him. A week later after his conquest of the world however, the Gods of the planets of the solar system learned of the demise of Everest, and to avenge their fallen comrade, they sent themselves to earth with the objective to destroy Aminus, for Everest was the God of Earth, and part of the Solar System Gods. So Hermes, Aphrodite, Ares, Zeus, Chronos, Caelus, Poseidon and the God Of The Sun, Helios, all fell down to Earth searching for Aminus. In a span of 4 weeks, the 7 Planetary Gods were all killed by Aminus despite their greatest attempts, and only Helios remained, but Helios wasn't like the rest, completely trashing Aminus and being ready to blow him and the planet up, until Aminus had the bright idea of covering the Sun with the Moon and create an eclipse, weakening Helios. And after absorbing the power of the Sun while Helios was weakened, nothing could stop him as Helios was extinguished with a single Dark Flare, and now as the Prince Of The Dark Sun, he was truly unbeatable.
Appearance[]
Aminus is a short Caucasian man, with pink hair, pink eyes, wearing dark and red / pink gothic clothes for he thinks it fits with his anarchic looks. He also carries his sword the Archaic Malice, a Black and Red sword with similar looks to the Blackcliff Slasher from Genshin Impact.
Personality[]
People would say he's the embodiment of the phrase “wow you must be fun at parties”, he's an egotistical, pessimistic, anarchic, nihilistic, satanic and selfish person who only cares about himself and absolutely nobody else, who thinks that only he can decide how the world should work and that nobody should ever defy him or stand in his way, and if they do he'll just behead them anyways. He's also extremely misanthropic and has no care or sympathy about human life and what they do with their lives in general. He's extremely arrogant too and has a short temper, constantly pointing out things he doesn't like and getting in fights with people. The only other thing that makes him smile that isn't bloodshed are adult cats.

Asuna Kamakura (Path of Wills) Asuna's Profile (Speed was equalised. Season 2 Aminus & Beginning of Series asuna were used. Fight took place in Tokyo, Japan, and both started 100 metres away from each other. Asuna had prior knowledge of Aminus' Reputation and appearance, but nothing else. Despite aminus' plentiful arsenal of offensive abilities, asuna had the smarts and the power to eventually find an opportunity to put him down for good.)
