Torvivum Zuskelgar



"For so long, Dark Emperor Torvivum Zuskelgar, also known as Darth Ronnihl, was responsible for the late Light Emperor Romulus Augustus' death, which led to the demise of the Empire of Light. Hmm. Clearly, his origins were closely guarded secrets that he took to his grave more than once. Do you know that Ancientmen wrote this?"

--Su Ji-Hoon, Mysteries of the End Dimension

Dark Emperor Torvivum Zuskelgar, also referred as Darth Ronnihl, is a new character introduced in When the Cold Breeze Blows Away.

In one way or another, Torvivum has existed since ancient times, long before that of the current events of World War III. Thousands of years ago, the Light Emperor Romulus Augustus; who fought alongside the Kids Club, was killed at the hands of Zuskelgar, causing the Empire of Light to ultimately collapse.

Noted for his sadistic and self-serving intentions just as well as his ability to conceal them, Torvivum impacted the multiverse perhaps more than any other single individual, and it is likely that his impact on history, for good or ill, was immeasurable. Despite this, he's also an eccentric Sith lord, showing care and mercy to all those who served him well and to all of the peoples of the multiverse, making him an inconsistently heinous character (whereby Tomislav Vlahović did a lot of crimes that are extremely worse than what he did).

He is around more than a thousand years old, has glowing Sith yellow eyes, white hair, and wears a customized black and red-colored robe.

History
"The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be...unnatural."

--Torvivum Zuskelgar

Personality and Traits
Though many Sith Lords are unapologetic psychopaths and carry genocidal tendencies, few to none match Torvivum's degree of malevolence. The living incarnation of all evil, even the Preschool Girls consider Zuskelgar a genuine threat to all existence. The aura of fear that Torvivum exudes has bent many, willingly or unwillingly, to his will. As a result, Zuskelgar is the leader of countless hordes of villains that carry out his commands without question or compromise.

As the ancient evil ruler of the Empire of Darkness and the instigator of the Kids' Club War, the personality of this half-human, half-demonic Sith Lord is very keen to that of sociopaths with the most common being his rather disconnect with other people's emotions and his own conscious. The one thing that he does not share with other sociopaths is his remarkable calmness and patience. However, his patience has limits and when it is pushed to the edge, he is fully willing to take action when necessary.

Cold, brutal, cruel, domineering, manipulative, ruthless, hedonistic, relentless, and wildly unpredictable, as one man describes him as, viewing others as tools to be used in his plans, the man have proven just how brutal he can be in many ways, from letting his servants to die once they have served their purpose, dispose allies once they outlive their use, and sometimes even taking amusement in slaughtering disciples given the inclination.

To those who had been at his nonexistent mercy, he was known to show signs of sadism, and he often took visible pleasure in torturing others. He was similarly quite bloodthirsty as well, and frequently reveled in combat to the point of laughing while he fought or killed. He was also noted for his lack of forgiveness, as even Supreme Leader Victor Nevarez, who was well known for summarily punishing anyone who failed him, considered him to be even less clement than himself.

An unholy and inhumane individual with an obsession for war and death, which he believes to be necessary for a society to grow and evolve until achieving the peak of what he envisions to be an ideal civilization.

Typically, he is solitary in his actions, usually using his wide army of servants to distract would-be enemies whilst he commits atrocities and actions to further empower himself. Wherever he walks, a great darkness follows him as if the entire scene falls into night, and often this alone is enough to compromise individuals.

Additionally, he is an extremely vain, selfish, prideful, and self-absorbed individual who cares about little else other than the accumulation of absolute power, and generally shows an uncaring and unsympathetic attitude towards others, especially what one would consider an "ordinary" human.

Powers and Abilities
Being a manifestation of pure evil, Torvivum is generally considered among the When the Cold Breeze Blows Away World as one of the more powerful presences it has ever seen; at the full apex of his power, Zuskelgar is capable of near limitless destruction, however the capability of doing this is far from being realised.

Despite his frail appearance, Torvivum is still terrifyingly powerful, certainly among the strongest Sith Lords in the multiverse. He is able to easily intimidate and overpower other formidable beings. Ruling over the Dark Empire unchallenged, Zuskelgar proves capable of scaring most worlds into his servitude without any demonstration of his might whatsoever; most of his sentient subjects believe him to be the most powerful being in entire multiverse (far surpassing the likes of Tabuu). Neither Alexander Pepper nor Ruby Ramirez believe that anyone or anything could possibly kill him. Torvivum is also capable of various demonic abilities that, even in his current state, make him an opponent that many would prefer to avoid.

Zuskelgar's array of demonic powers additionally grants him capabilities that most demonic beings do not - among such powers seen is telepathy, soul absorption and resurrection of the dead, among his immense control over fire. Torvivum is also capable of illusionary tactics, such as creating clones to further intimidate the enemy or enshrouding the area in darkness to make himself discrete.

Although Zuskelgar much prefers to do things through the use of technology and manipulation, he certainly has many abilities and powers he can fall back on if the need arises. The first power he has is Telekinesis, specifically a more advanced form of telekinesis which he uses for a variety of ranges, enough that it seems that he can do practically anything to the world around him, which include levitating himself if need be. The second power he has is Electrokinesis, again, an advanced form of it but his lighting oddly tends to be black in color and appears to suck the very light around it into itself, creating a sort of black hole effect to his lightning, and if it hits a person, it would feel every part of their being is being burned yet not enough to actually kill them, until they vaporize entirely, not leaving anything behind, even atoms.

In addition, Torvivum is naturally immortal (this means that he does not age and could theoretically live forever, provided that he isn't killed), now whether or not this can be attributed to his status as a deity is unknown, but is seems likely that the former is more plausible.

Another very dangerous and advanced Force technique utilized by the Dark Emperor was the ability to use the Force to transfer his essence, as well as the essences of others, which he only used to possess the body of Nevarez, greatly enhancing the latter's Force powers. He also, when taking over a host's body, overwrote the soul and personality of the being to fully dominate over it.

The Dark Lord was also adept in the use of Force Persuade to such an extent that he was able to take complete control of a subject's mind and force them to obey his commands.
