Komaki Da

Komaki Da is a half-demon sorcerer. He owns a small shop that rests between the various dimensions, enabling him to teleport it wherever he desires. He is extremely powerful, having gained considerable strength over his long life. It appears he has a connection with the Meiriella's, being both on a first name basis with the last family head Draco, and currently engaged to its last surviving member Vesta.

Character traits
Komaki generally comes off as very calm and calculated. He gives off an unsettling air about him, that often causes others to mistrust him. Despite this, Komaki claims to be an honest soul, and is often quite direct when describing himself. He has stated at least once that while he may twist words, and abuse loopholes, and even use exact wording, he will never lie, or renege upon any agreement. Komaki considers it insulting that one would even consider he break his word, or tell a lie, whether it was given verbally or in written statement.

Komaki has stated to be on a constant quest for amusement. He has lived for so long that he has begun to grow bored with existance, and seeks any form of entertainment to liven up his life, and is not above stirring up chaos to cause it. The Necromancer acknowledged Komaki's abilities, and invited the half demon to the Meeting on Hanging Neck Isle. However, Komaki declined this invitation, revealing another facet of his personality. He does not like to be in the thick of the action. Komaki far prefers to work behind the scenes, moving factions in whatever means suit his whimsy or interests, granting aid where he thinks it will produce the most interesting results. As a result, he has freely helped Nararia Crimzone in her quest for the World's destruction, while simultaneously aiding Netami Kihaku in conquering the world, and S in protecting it. Komaki has no concept of allegiance, and will ally himself with whomever suits his whims at the time.

Komaki's cool demeanor is evident in nearly all of his actions, rarely providing deeper insight into his mental processes than an amused or arrogant smirk, or frown of disapproval or disappointment. Indeed, Komaki rarely appears impressed with even the most remarkable achievements. He has stated that he cares little for those who have shown their worth, but finds those who seek victory over those superior to themselves, as far more interesting specimens to observe. It was this trait that endeared him to his future fiance, Vesta.

Thus far, despite casually mocking and even insulting the most powerful beings in the New World, Komaki has still displayed a healthy respect for The Necromancer, and Kataki Doragon, the latter for reasons yet unknown.

Powers/Abilities

 * Vortex- Komaki's most frequently used ability is to create vortexes of magic, which he uses to traverse immense distances in a very short period of time. It appears he can only produce such vortexes within his shop as they all inevitably lead there.
 * Baleful Polymorph- Komaki is very adept at curses and one of his favorites appears to be the transformation of others into any form he deems fitting. He is even able to invoke this curse through inanimate objects, as seen in Kyou's collar.
 * Immunity to poison- Due to being part Snake demon, Komaki is highly resistant to poison, as witnessed when his fiance attempted to kill him with an extremely potent venom.
 * Poisonous fangs- Due to his serpentine heritage, Komaki sports fangs capable of injecting someone with an incredibly potent venom, capable of killing someone within minutes without a proper antidote.
 * Magical artifacts- Komaki's greatest weapon, however, is undoubtably the vast arsenal within his shop. He holds a vast amount of magical artifacts within his shop, capable of many unknown feats. He appears to utilize mainly those concerned with divination, however.
 * Dimensional Travel- Komaki has demonstrated the ability to send individuals between dimensions, and even through space and time entirely! He has stated in the past that his shop resides between the dimensional borders allowing him to traverse the varioous universes and dimensions with ease.

Plot
Komaki was among the earliest appearances, prior to the creation of the New World. He encountered Dyre out during her feeding one night, and in a short conversation, Komaki's elusive, yet condescending manner of words managed to thoroughly frustrate the vampire, and she attempted to flee him. This took a turn for the worst for the vampire, when her Master, in exchange for services Komaki had rendered him in the past, turned Dyre's ownership over to Komaki for a time.

Komaki was present during the meeting of Dyre and Tifa. After Dyre's hired mercenary accidentally killed Tifa, Kyou walked onto the scene and attempted to attack those responsible. Komaki managed to plant an enchanted collar around Kyou's neck, however, that, in addition to being impossible to remove, would turn the elemental into the form of a regular cat at his or Dyre's command. Following this, Komaki slipped away into the shadows, to watch the plot develop, not even appearing when the newly revived Tifa shrouded the world in Darkness, creating the New World.

Komaki received an invitation to the Meeting on Hanging Neck Isle, but was the only one to not attend. He did, however, attempt to scry on the meeting to little success, due to wards put in place by the Necromancer and Dyre. All he managed to glean was those who had arrived at the meeting, but little more.

After awhile, Komaki was forced to return Dyre's ownership back to her master, and requested to locate Dyre's engagement ring. Unbenownst to all present, except for Komaki himself, he was the possessor of the ring, and the rightful owner. After a meeting with Dyre on a pier, the vampire began to suspect Komaki was far more than he seemed to be, and Komaki began a game with her. If she won, he would give her the knowledge she desired. Dyre attempted to win the game on the spot, kissing Komaki and attempting to kill him with her poisonous lipstick. Unfortunately for her, the venoms and poisons that made up her lipstick were not merely supplied by Komaki, but in fact were his own. As such, Komaki was completely unaffected. Still the attempt bought Dyre his favor, and he began to work for her behind the scenes, setting up the Master so that when he finally gave him the ring he sought, Dyre was able to kill him with some assistance from Kyou.

However, Komaki was not done yet. Though Dyre had earned his respect for killing her master, he decided to test her yet again, reclaiming the ring and declaring that their game was not yet done. Komaki raised the stakes, putting her ring on the line, and that she must defeat him in order to reclaim it, before promptly leaving.

As Dyre continued to fight onwards, she finally decided on a course of action to rid herself of the Necromancer's curse and regain her memories. Komaki was paid a visit by the Necromancer himself, and given the dagger she would need to complete the ritual, not knowing that the soul of Dyre's father Draco Meiriella was sealed inside. Komaki gave the dagger to Dyre to complete the curse, knowing that the Necromancer had something planned, but left it up to her to determine whether or not to proceed. When she did, she was afflicted by yet another curse, though restored her memories. A lethal toxin flooded her veins and Komaki was forced to save her.

With her memories restored, Vesta now requested her ring yet again. Komaki refused, stating that he needed time to consider and departed yet again. During this time, he was paid another visit by the Necromancer who warned him against helping Vesta. Finally deciding on his course of action, Komaki began to take precautions and prepare for the Necromancer's downfall. He eventually took a short break to reconcile with Vesta, announcing his intentions to follow through on his millenia old promise to marry her, once the Necromancer was defeated. Though Vesta told him that the Necromancer was her own problem, Komaki continued to work. He notably sent Vesta's servant Odyssey on a quest to gain knowledge of a technique known as the Evil Containment Wave while simultaneously sending the villain Nararia to obtain another method of sealing technique in exchange for a powerful sword.

Komaki appears to not have joined either side in the Invasion of London.

Some time after the Invasion, however, Komaki had his third run-in with the Necromancer, meeting him as he discussed with Odyssey a plot to assassinate Komaki. Odyssey proved resistant to the idea, having learned of Komaki's engagement to his mistress, and the Necromancer (in Draco Meiriella's body) began to subtley veil threats. Not realizing it was the Necromancer, Komaki intruded upon the meeting, warning his old friend to back down. It was here that the Necromancer slipped up, allowing Komaki to realize his control over Draco's body. The two entered a stalemate, and the Necromancer departed, leaving Komaki to inform Dyre of this change in the situation.

However, Dyre did not react in a manner that Komaki anticipated and the half demon was forced to employ the help of Netami to stall her until he could arrange a suitable force to combat the Necromancer. Komaki intruded upon a meeting of Kyou and Tifa, gathering the two, as well as S to assist them in the battle against the Necromancer, before returning the Dyre's castle, and launching their attack on Hanging Neck Isle.

During the opening stages of the battle, the group was split up, S, Netami and Dyre forced to face off against the Necromancer directly. Komaki sent Kyou and Tifa to aid them, whilst he fended off Draco. In a short duel, Komaki managed to seal Draco, and swiftly moved to face the Necromancer, just as Vesta was about to bite him, and incur his curse upon herself. Thanks to a timely distraction by S, however, Vesta was spared this fate. Komaki then managed to distract Vesta until Kyou could use the Evil Containment Wave-- taught to him by Komaki, to defeat the Necromancer and seal him away.

With the Necromancer vanquished, Komaki was free to pursue his marriage to Dyre, and the two began preparations. During preparations, Komaki furthered his plans, meeting with Nararia Crimzone and Tifa Demiji. During these meetings he managed to gain Tifa's trust and Nararia's favor, exchanging a potent illusion spell for a fragment of the darkness that Nararia cast over her controlled territories. Komaki returned to his fiance, and gave her the fragment for study.

On the night Komaki was to be wedded, his fiance suffered a case of cold feet at the alter, afraid she was about to sacrifice her newly achieved freedom in marrying him, and fled the chamber. Komaki approached her in her room, and after an ominous exchange, departed her company.

After a short while, Komaki returned to his ex-fiance, stating that while being comfortable with her decision, he still intended to take over the role Draco had granted him as head of the household. The two entered a tense stalemate, as Komaki continued to drive at Vesta over her refusal to marry him, despite knowing very well that the vampire had feelings for him. However, Komaki continued to help Vesta prepare for the inevitable battle against Nararia Crimzone, offering up to her, the sample of the Mazoku's Darkness, and travelling to the sacred mountain Hakurei, in order to gather purified holy water for the vampire's rituals.

While the two remained at an impasse, they were ultimately forced to take action when Nararia attacked London in the Third Invasion of London. Komaki took care of gathering the forces arraigned to meet with Nararia and swiftly departed, moving to stall Nararia until they were ready to engage her.

Komaki entered a long discourse with her, stalling her with words, until the resistance against the Mazoku was organized. He then stepped aside and allowed Nararia to engage in battle, in which she was ultimately defeated by the combined efforts of Kyou Nenshou, Netami Kihaku, Tifa and Vesta.

Following the battle, Komaki returned to the castle, where he at last decided to bring Vesta with him, in order to discover from the vampire's own spectral mother, the reason as to their original engagement. The deceased vampire informed them, that she had wished to avoid her own mistakes with a previous love-- Nathan, whom she had given to marry Draco, and had believed Vesta would have been happiest with Komaki. Finally accepting this, Vesta agreed to give the half-demon another chance.
