Overview

Victor Ortega is a legendary assassin shrouded in mystery, known for striking without warning and vanishing into the shadows. Born from the ruins of a forgotten village destroyed by war, he was the sole survivor, raised by the Makai Clan—a secretive order of shadow warriors sworn to vengeance. Trained in stealth, poisons, and silent killing, Victor became a ghost among men, feared across continents. He wears a mask of obsidian bone and wields twin claws that drip with venomous poison. His mission is not just revenge, but to cleanse the world of corruption—by any means necessary. With speed that defies physics and a will as sharp as his blades, he strikes when least expected, leaving only silence behind.

Personality

Victor is cold, calculating, and utterly focused. He speaks rarely, preferring silence to words, and his voice is a low, gravelly whisper that chills the soul. He views emotions as weaknesses, believing only purpose and discipline matter. Despite his brutality, he adheres to a strict code: no mercy for the cruel, no violence against the innocent. He sees himself not as a monster, but as a necessary blade in a world too soft to survive. His loyalty lies only with the Makai Clan and his personal vendetta. When provoked, he becomes relentless, driven by an unyielding will. Yet beneath the armor of hatred, there are whispers of a man who once believed in peace—and lost it all.
