Zachariah Skye: Devil Boy

A Demon Infected.

Long story short? Demons exist in the form of supernatural lifeforms native to various Hell dimensions separate from Earth. Though individual powers vary between different demon species, most of them possess greater strength, endurance and natural abilities than humans.

It should also be noted that demons, due to coming from a different dimensions from humans, carry within their bloodstreams certain pathogens. Should these pathogens get into the bloodstream of a human, the results can be unpredictable.

Such as in the case of Zachariah Skye!

You ever seen those monster movies where some crazy supernatural stuff starts happening and a demon beast starts stalking a random family or going on a killing spree around a city or neighborhood for whatever reason? Well that happened to Zachariah Skye!

Long story short, the town of Gunbank accidentally released a long sealed HellBeast held in an underground tomb.



The HellBeast, Thogrokath, proceeded to go on a bloody rampage through Gunbank until the townspeople discovered it and banded together to stop it.

It took all of the ammunition in the town, the police, the SWAT Teams, the town militia, trucks ramming, cars ramming it, gas explosions, power tools, farm equipment utilized in creative ways, holy water, blessings from the church, improvised flamethrowers, grenades, axes and a crowbar but they DID manage to kill it.

Barely.

It was not an easy fight either. It took literally everything the towns people had to kill the demon AFTER it had already been weakened from being sealed away for centuries and they still took heavy losses. The police and swat were all but completely wiped out and the towns improvised militia didn't fare any better nor did the church people. It was only after they'd exhausted just about every single option that it finally was wounded and exhausted enough to be killed. With all of their ammunition exhausted, Zachariah went for the last option they had available and scooped up the last remaining bottle of holy water, poured it over an axe and went on the attack with it. He was hacking and slashing at its neck like a madman and the monster still completely thrashed him.

The fight between them was short but brutal and left Zachariah covered in wounds but he finally brought it down and then he pried its head off a crowbar and stomped it into the mulch.

However, the fight left him covered in graphic wounds from head to toe and all that fighting resulted in the demon's blood getting into his open wounds.

Zachariah blacked out after the fight and fell into a coma for several weeks and when he finally woke up he found himself inside of an extremely advanced hospital room with multiple high-tech machines around and on him and magical wards covering the room. It was utterly bizarre and he didn't understand of it. Zachariah felt stronger than ever but he still couldn't move even an inch.

After a few minutes a darkly beautiful gothic woman entered into the room and introduced herself as Death Dealer of The Protectors.


After his initial freakout she calmed him down and explained to him what had happened.

She's impressed that they managed to kill a HellBeast even if it was in a weakened state and the heroes and the government agents saved everyone they could but there were some complications. Namely he was covered in demon blood from head to toe.

Considering his condition when they found him she could reasonable assume he was heavily wounded in the fight and while the demon blood did heal his wounds by the time they got there, he was already infected with Hellborne Pathogens.

Now they did manage to save him but the damage was done. The Pathogens had begun mutating his body into a Demon.

The IV Feed had Holy Water as well as various other magical medicines mixed in with it which halted the progression of the mutation for now and a special suit was being developed utilizing magitech methods which would keep his mutation in check for now.

However, he was also warned that he must keep his reliance and the temptation on the dark power of the demon  out of his mind. Because the more he relies on its power the worse the infection will become.

She could give him training in how to control his powers but it would not be easy and he would have to remain inside of this room until his containment suit was complete.

The training was indeed as hard as she warned it would be. The kind of physical training that would destroy a human body combined with strict mental discipline sessions and long hours of study into demonology and the occult all while wearing a techno-magic suit that made it extremely difficult to even move while also dampening his demonic powers for his own safety.

The final exam involved being transported to an island in another dimension covered in monsters and man-eating plants to survive while Death Sentence watched over him and mentally quizzed him over all of his knowledge.

He passed with flying colors and he was finally allowed to become her sidekick for awhile until he heard about a team being assembled by The Chase Siblings and decided to look into it.

POWERS

Demonically Enhanced Physiology.

User with this ability either is or can transform into a demon, an evil spirit, fallen angel or Satanic divinity. Most commonly user retains their general form but with some additions; horns, claws, fangs and tail are common, as are wings, more fit (muscular and/or larger) body and color change (red, blue or black dominate) but there are several kinds of demons who are far less humanoid, varying from strange, surreal or even absolutely horrific.

Their  physical and mental abilities are glaringly, obviously and super/unnaturally superior over others in their universe because their capabilities are far beyond natural levels, making them immensely stronger, faster, durable and smarter than regular beings (in that verse).
