Name: Hayden Keegan, "Foreteller of Blades"
Age: 23
Personality: Cold and ruthless, Hayden has earned his title and more. A vicious and ruthless combatant, Hayden uses deception, brute strength, and powerful magic to overwhelm his foes.
Hayden comes across as a bit of a sociopath in general conversation, regarding the feelings of others as an afterthought. He primarily operates for his own gain in the short term, though he plans his long term goals to have the best outcomes (he thinks) for the most people. While not necessarily aiming for the greater good with his designs, he does usually opt for the most desirable option. "Why burn the chess board when you need only replace the pieces?"
He usually talks down to other people, regarding them as stooges or pawns in the game of fate. He regards himself little better, but the sense of superiority he feels comes from his ability to perceive and act on it which is at least partially responsible for his detachment from other sentient creatures. He doesn't bother to consider how the lesser people might feel, though he does respect power that they wield. It's not enough respect to merit him speaking to them as equals, but he does acknowledge the respect he has towards them usually before or during battle. After battle, he usually kills them unless he thinks they have a grander use.
That said, he doesn't waste resources unnecessarily. He doesn't relentlessly pursue opposition that runs from him nor does he make it a point to kill the injured. However, those that directly interfere with his goals are very often beaten and brushed aside, while the more stubborn who insist on being obstacles are the ones who die.
Despite his calculating nature, Hayden enjoys company when he can take it. When he's not dressed as the Foreteller of Blades he is a seemingly well-adjusted individual who easily blends in with society. This provides him with easy cover and lets him travel from world to world by blending with the civilian populace. He can play virtually any role he finds himself in, though some comes with bumps. His imitations are shallow if he doesn't know the individual very well.
He is very pragmatic to say the least of it. That's a major reason for his success. When he wasn't a villain, he was a very controversial "hero". Suffice to say, it didn't surprise a lot of people in the know when he began his one-man crusade. However, they didn't really have much to go off when tracking Hayden, because they actually didn't even know that much about him. Hayden's first and last name, due to his private nature, has never been known in association with Foreteller of Blades.
He is actually quite jovial at times, too. When not being a villain he is a major prankster, finding solace in the distress minor chaos and bring to people. Shifting a bed two inches to the left, repainting a room in a house while everybody is out- all valid ways to get his chuckles.
Hayden does have a more vulnerable, emotional side to him. It isn't often exposed, if at all. It involves such lovey-dovey things such as cutting out paper-hearts, cuddling puppies, and making baby talk at baboos. He does not do any of these things in uniform. However, Hayden does have a love of whittling and woodcarving, and greatly enjoys origami. He will freely espouse that these are superior crafts.
Appearance: When in full garment, he stands at just over 6'2" in height. A mask obscures his face from view, while a tattered red cloak clings to the upper part of his Torso. It covers the armor that seems to exist underneath the cloak itself, which is ebony in coloration. The sleeves extend until about midway up the forearm, where the gauntlets reveal themselves to have pointed finger tips and a scale pattern with sharp, metal fins protruding from each interlocking metal cuff. Holding the cloak in bundles and bunches to the torso are a series of leather belts fastened by metal buckles, with the largest amount of them travelling down his right arm.
At the hip, the cloak is held with a leather belt as well. However, the cloak doesn't have enough material to conceal the legs. Instead it ends just after the belt in tatters, with the ebony armor resurfacing along the legs and hip. It bears the same design and pattern as it does along the arms, with the knees more scaled for flexibility. In addition, the armor curls up into a point at the toe.
Hayden was viewed without his mask once by one of his first victims, who had just managed to knock it off before being impaled. A hidden element nearby overhead the man describe his eyes as "crimson fire" before his death. That may have been true at the time, but his actual appearance is decidedly less frightening. Outside of his armor Hayden is a physically fit male standing at about 6'0", and even sounds different than he does in his garb. While as the Jack of Blades his voices sounds distorted and slightly metallic, his actual voice possess no such alteration.
His face is fairly handsome with sharp features. His chin is pointed and his nose as well, with eyebrows like razors and eyes of a slate-gray color. His skin is light brown and his hair black, his teeth slightly yellowed from normal wear. He is quite svelte, but his armor makes him look somewhat larger than he actually is.

History: Once a noble Keyblade Warrior, Hayden was trained from youth to excel in might and magic in order to protect the worlds from darkness, destruction, and tyranny. He never doubted this message very often- he never had cause. To protect the worlds from devastation his will was resolute, and while he didn't seek to unite all peoples within a nation he denounced the evils of truth and love as his order extended it's reach to the stars above.
They were called the Order of Blades, a group of powerful Keybearers who had pledged unity and law. They were never to interfere with the fundamental structure of the worlds governments. The worlds were meant to govern themselves. Anything less was an infringement on their sovereignty.
But, once Hayden's training was complete and he began to go to other worlds to quell the heartless and those tainted, he started very quickly to notice patterns. The rich lived in lavish and luxurious areas of safety, and these were the individuals that the Order of Blades responded to. It struck him as odd that they protected so many by communicating with so few, but asking questions produced no results. He was simply hand-waved as a young apprentice might be.
While he kept his suspicions, he was much quieter about them from that moment on. He even participated in a few terrible acts willingly in order to keep his silence. He came to know his order as being depraved seekers or wealth and protectors of those that commanded it, rather than guardians of the worlds. At the age of twenty-one, he was declared the youngest Keyblade Master in the Order of Blades. With this promotion came certain responsibilities, such as interacting directly and personally with those the order served.
It didn't take very long for Hayden to decided that the old ways weren't working. While visiting one such world he accompanied a lord alongside a fellow Keyblade Master. When a beggar asked for food, the lord commanded that he be executed for the "stench of darkness". Hayden's fellow did so without hesitation. This was a commonality, and Hayden did his damndest to overlook it each and every time, but it steadily became apparent that while his brothers and sisters were content with slaughtering civilians, he was decidedly less thrilled with the idea.
He vanished for two years afterwards. His whereabouts were unknown, but he had traveled to the End of the World. Once there, he was determined to meet his end by fighting the Heartless- suicide some would call it, but he believed it to be a more honorable calling than being the lapdogs of the violent, of the despicable, of the rich.
Hayden came to admire the darkness in his isolation. For two years he fought the Heartless. For two years he became drunk on the darkness. He returned and confronted his order, challenging the Foreteller and declaring himself the new Foreteller of Blades. In a violent battle he not only killed the Foreteller but his entire Order. Immediately afterwards, he set about attacking various worlds and executing their leadership. By crippling their governments, they would be forced to start over, or at least get damn close. Even then, the people in power would be too scared to do anything abusive towards their populations. Next Stop: Wonderland...
