Victor Nevarez



"Good grief! It's that blasted bastard leader of the Coalition of the Red Star and one of the grand masterminds behind the Third World War with kakugan-like red eye thingies, black hair, and even a black-colored uniform with a cape on his back! That's Victor Nevarez. I hated him. I wish I'll be pissin' on the grave right now. Oh, and do I mention that he's got a British butler named Jonathon Marple, his sidekick? That's like Dr. Nefarious and Lawrence from Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal. More like up the arse for 'em."

--Su Ji-Hoon, Nevarez

Personality and Traits
Victor is an extremely secretive and enigmatic figure, as only the members of the Chaos Council and Jonathon Marple himself seem to be aware of where he actually is (as he always keeps a low profile and tends to lurk in the shadows).

In the standard Coalition of the Red Star Joint Military, no one, not even the top commanders, know about his exact location. He gives orders to its military through messengers and rarely appears on the battlefield. He believes that everything is pre-ordained and that it cannot be disrupted, as doing so will cause dire consequences. He is also known for being manipulative and mistrustful, as he often makes others do his work for him. However, should any of his plans backfire and result in the failure of his minions (in which he uses Force Choke to punish their failures), he has no qualms for accomplishing a task himself should he deem it worth his attention. He is also extremely confident, to the point of borderline arrogance and being almost impossible to intimidate.

With an insatiable desire to get his goals realized; whether by killing someone or toying around with people's feelings. Victor is nothing more than the ultimate personification of sadism, cruelty, psychopathy, megalomania, infinite destruction, death, power and madness: an uncompromising and frightening spawn of evil that instills fear in all that dare to oppose or defy him, and frequently inspires confidence even in his most distant of allies. Though he has a loyal dominion of servants, even Lola Loud shows cowering servitude before him, often not wishing to incur the Supreme Leader's wrath. He also has little to no regard for his followers, showing absolutely no empathy when his allies, who swear allegiance to him, are killed right before him.

Victor was also a ruthless yet cunning strategist and tactician who often outmaneuvered his enemies and made them play by his rules. Taking the zero-sum game to heart, he did whatever was necessary to gain the upper-hand without any regard to the loss of life in the process, even shooting Vlastimir Antokolskiy (his only known friend) to reach his objective. Nevarez truly believed that the end justified the means and until his death at the hands of Alexander Pepper, Victor's tactics would dictate the course of history.

Nevarez occasionally demonstrates a dark sense of sarcastic humor and is able to remain calm and unfazed in situations that would frighten and shock most others, as he remained fully composed even as the Kids Club prepared to take him down. Victor has also shown himself to be surprisingly honorable. He does not go back on the end of the deal he made with others and would honor them even when angered; he extends this even to his enemies, if they prove worthy of his honor.

On a lesser note, Victor typically had zero tolerance of failure and was quite unforgiving of it, as he did not get on well with some of the higher-ups in the Coalition military and even resorted into using the Force to strangle, telekinetically throw, or seldom kill subordinates who try to insult him or challenge his authority, one example of this being his nearly choking General Eun Myung-Ki; who is a member of the Chaos Council and a Korean technologist, to death when he questioned the power of the Force, though General Myung-Ki survived due to the intervention of Allegiant General Heinrich Neumann. However, both Commodore Cristofor Kiritescu and Captain Horváth Domonkos were not so fortunate though, as Nevarez telekinetically strangled both men to death following blunders they had committed. For their part, a few higher-ranking Coalition officials despised the Dark Lord and his so-called "sorcerer's ways."

Although he did execute officers when they failed him too many times, he occasionally promoted military, such as Grand Marshal Norman Hofmann, for traits he was personally impressed with. In Hofmann's case, it was his brutal honesty to Victor. Similarly, he also promoted Yelnallet Dardolerg to the rank of Deputy Director for the completion of Lord Trethium's Wrath when she backed up an admiral that Nevarez had killed's assessments that there were flaws in the design of the ship. He also held some disgust towards individuals who were willing to betray their own worlds for power, even when such actions were to the benefit of the Coalition.

Victor's intelligent, sophisticated, and at times calm demeanor masked his more sinister qualities such as machiavellianism, arrogance, egotism, and narcissism. He was an extremely intimidating individual who possessed a dark nature that rivaled even that of Dark Emperor Torvivum Zuskelgar. Nevarez's demeanor shifted from calmness to anger, depending on the situation.

Additionally, Victor was a cruel master as well as a predator, who identified weakness and exploited it, as demonstrated by how Nevarez dominated not just the entire Coalition but specifically Hermann Fegelein and Richard Loud III, making him a brutal tyrant. He particularly enjoyed using his powers to penetrate the minds of his victims and subject them to agonizing scenes, picking apart their courage and resolve slowly over time.

Despite his status as pure evil, he did have reservations toward certain actions. According to Ruby Ramirez, the Supreme Leader "would have been ashamed to use such tactics" as illusions calculated to break someone emotionally.

Powers and Abilites
As the reigning Dark Lord of the Sith in his time, Nevarez was the strongest Sith Lord and one of the most powerful Force users of his time (second only to Zuskelgar himself), with insane levels of mastery over the powers of the Dark Side. He was exceptionally skilled in Force Lightning, and was known to use this both as a lethal attack, and as a way of torturing his opponents. If used to its full potency, he could instantly reduce one or more people into nothing but ash. Although his Force Lightning was generally purple in color, it also emerged as red. Despite his daunting skill in many other aspects of the Force, Force Lightning was arguably his trademark ability and one that served him well against extremely fierce opponents many times either resulting in their defeat or near defeat.

In addition, Victor could also use Force Lightning in many unique ways, able to target multiple foes with overwhelming barrages. Like other Sith Lords, Nevarez was able to chain lightning attacks into his lightsaber strikes, amplifying his melee attacks with sudden arcs of energy. He also used lightning in a more tactical manner, charging up or shorting out certain types of machinery. He could also use this power in conjunction with telekinesis to electrify objects while levitating them before hurling them at his opponents, thus increasing the damage potency of the attack, called lightning grenade.

On the same side of the coin, Victor was exceedingly formidable at utilizing telekinetic attacks, and often made liberal use of his telekinetic abilities during battles. He could perform severely lethal Force Pulls, Pushes, and Grips and was capable of breaking through the telekinetic defenses of Force-sensitives of Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi. He was also remarkably dexterous in the application of Force Repulse and Force Wave, and could generate enough power with both attacks to easily take out Force-insensitive assailants. In particular, he was capable of using Force Wave to kill dozens of opponents simultaneously. Making often use of both the Force Crunch, Force Rend, and Force Crush abilities in his life, Nevarez proved to be highly powerful in their application. In addition, he was incredibly proficient in Force Choke to the point that he can perform it to deadly effect without needing to see the target even when in large distances away, using only a holo-transmission to show him his target, as shown by how he was able to completely subdue General Zacarías Fulgencio in a chokehold with a single hand gesture and execute him by telekinetically snapping his neck. He was also capable of using the Force to telekinetically destroy a target's internal organs, as well as crushing small battle machines and even catch or redirect missiles and other ballistics in mid-flight.

One of Victor's favorite tactics during battles was using Force Throw to pull apart objects in his environment and fling them at his opponents. This served as both an effective practical attack and a way of demoralizing his enemies, his effectiveness with this technique was further bolstered by the fact that he was capable of telekinetically gripping and hurling objects without the need to utilize the "throwing" motion that nearly all Force sensitives used.

Nevarez could also use the Force to universally enhance his own physical capabilities - this enabled him to become incredibly athletic and acrobatic in combat, shown during his duel on Mustafar, where he faultlessly dueled Darth Aleksandrous; who is a Light Sith, maintaining the upper hand throughout the entire clash, by maintaining phenomenally precise and effective footwork and even acrobatic feats to gain leverage on his opponents.

After his surgery, his natural strength was vastly augmented by the addition of his cybernetic enhancements and his connection to the Force strengthened considerably, to the point where his brother Barthold Nevarez once complimented his powers as being "unparalleled."

In addition, Victor retained his proficiency in using the Force to enhance his physical abilities. In fact, despite the cumbersome weight of his reconstructed body and prosthetics, Nevarez was a master of Force Speed, implementing it into his fighting style and allowing him to move so quickly that his opponents would often find themselves unable to react in time. Victor also had the power of Force Flight, able to hover above the ground in standard gravity, as well as being capable of surrounding himself with a miniature storm of malevolent force energy that slowed the movements of, and tortured all caught in it. Nevarez showcased on multiple occasions the ability to both lift and hold two people off the ground at arm's length with no apparent effort. As he demonstrated on Captain Truman Blankenship and Sebastián Alguacil, among others, he could crush a human throat bare-handed.

Victor is a polyglot, this means that he has remarkable understanding of many languages around the multiverse, although his ability to speak and write these languages varies to a considerable degree. The most common languages he spoke are English, German, French, Spanish, Russian, Korean, Chinese etc. While studying the ways of the Sith, he had learned to speak the ancient ur-Kittât. He and Torvivum were the only known Sith Lords to possess such language.

Moreover, Nevarez was a highly accomplished warrior in almost any form of combat (his signature weapon is the Darksaber). Able to last in a situation with a melee weapon, firearm, or just his bare hands and feet, the Supreme Leader can usually defeat any adversary he comes across even if they have superior armor and weapons.

Furthermore, there isn't much that can actually injure Victor or even cause him pain (his reconstructed body, despite being mainly made out of outdated alien machinery, allows him to withstand an impressive amount of damage). However, prior to his surgery, Nevarez has been hurt in the past, though he has demonstrated a sufficient healing factor to be able to walk it off within mere moments of receiving the injury.

On top of that, with his enhanced agility and reflexes, coupled with his overtly terrifying strength and resilience, makes Victor a very dangerous opponent should one underestimate him.

Nevarez was also believed to have perfected Sith alchemy.

Trivia

 * Since Nevarez is a main antagonist, it is likely that Victor is the novel's penultimate 'big bad' as his actions lead to the conflicts that have been plaguing the timeline in some manner, and often believed that due to his actions much earlier in the timeline, he could be blamed for everything that has happened all throughout the known multiverse, making him the 'bigger bad' of the known multiverse as a whole.
 * He is heavily inspired by Emperor Yiloala Olpimakia Kutarukia from Great Multiverse Wiki.
