To the leader, the pariah, the victor, the messiah

Character: Setsuna Mudou/Alexiel
Series: Angel Sanctuary
Age: 16 (manga says high school freshman)
Canon: I'm going to attempt to be brief since this series is intense when it comes to plot. It's basically the tale of one boy's struggle to balance his sinful love for his twin sister with his being the reincarnation of a female fallen angel that both Heaven and Hell want for their own purposes.

Setsuna is the recent reincarnation of the Organic Angel Alexiel, who's fated to always live a tragic life before dying horribly. After Setsuna's sister, Sara, dies while protecting him, Setsuna will do anything to restore her, including going to hell and back. Reckless but optimistic, Setsuna tries not to mourn his problems too long (so long as he has someone to kick his ass into gear). He also forgives those who prove themselves to him, even if they've hurt him in the past and will go out of his way to help those in need. But he does have a *vicious* temper if you piss him off and loves to tease.

Possibly because of Alexiel's influence, Setsuna has the ability to see the hidden light in others and heal them of their darkness, ghouls and other tortured spirits especially. Alexiel also has the tendency to temporarily possess Setsuna in various dangerous situations. After his body was accidentally killed while he was searching for Sara in Hades, Setsuna resided in Alexiel's body for a while.

This app takes Setsuna from the end of Volume 11, where he is being transported to Heaven for the first time to find the amazingly not-dead Sara and deal with problems there. He has just gotten back his real body and Sara's facing a trial in Heaven for loving her brother.


Sample Post:

It's funny that despite everything, I always pictured Heaven as some classy hang-out with wispy clouds and random guys flying around looking bored out of their skulls. Oh yeah and that big pearly gate they're always going on about? I don't think that gate was supposed to a)recite the rules on how to survive a zombie apocalypse or b)turn into a screen checklist on how many times I turned into various things. Man, you wake up a chick one time and it follows you around forever. Speaking of which, someone needs to tell my undead friend over here that the breasts aren't coming back. No. Don't you people have any normal ghouls? You know, the ones that just try to kill you and maybe turn into things to screw with your head. Not that lucky, huh?

Seeing as this place is chock full of that happy "abandon all hope ye who enter here" feel...I'm gonna go out on a limb and say someone fucked up. Either that or God's been taking decorating tips from Lucifer. So much for angel technology. Right now Sara's about to go through that bullshit trial and I'm stuck here with my not so secret admirers...Guess there's no choice but to offer my services. Tell you what, you guys help me find a way out of here and I'll work on your ghoul problem. I'm sure these guys have some unresolved angst other than sexual deprivation. Although I know the feeling and damn does it suck. Try 16 years and one hell of a moral hangup.

Anyway, the name's Setsuna Mudou. Some call me the Savior, but then they're usually trying to kill me so I'm cool with just Setsuna. Now let's get started. The sooner I get out of here, the less Sara will snap at me for being late. And she's scary when she's pissed.
