Face Claim: Hibari Kyoya - Katekyo Hitman Reborn
II. APPEARANCE
Height: 6'0
Weight: 160 lbs
Hair: Black
Eyes: Red
General Appearance: Nexus's body is lean and well built. However it's hard to discern this by the clothes he wears. Normally his wardrobe consists of simple button down shirts and dress pants, however it can vary depending on the situation. His red eyes are a result of his magic, having changed when he became a God Slayer and as a result tend to shine when he's excited. His black hair is semi long, with bangs that tend to rest over his face but don't obstruct his vision.
Extra: On Nexus' back is a seal that takes up the entirely of it from shoulder to shoulder. It is a sign of his seal.
III. PERSONALITY
Personality: Normally calm, quiet and rather distant. However this is mainly a facade to his more complex nature. Around those who share his ideals he shows respect and if rather harsh on those who wish to harm them. As an individual he is always calculating, his mind tending to drift when doing so and as a result he never really acknowledges the others around him unless his attention is directed on them intentionally. In truth he is actually very kind, but maintains a strong visage to protect those around him. Because of the role he's played for so long he tends to maintain the facade even when he's not around others, never sure of who might be watching, and only rarely will his real personality slip through in public. He's in fact very selfish, the type who hates sharing what he wants to be his own, who teases those who he chooses to be affectionate with, and will do anything to protect those closest to him.
This side of him is normally reserved for those in the guild with him. As the only ones who were willing to accept him he opens up to them rather easily, even with new members, he tries to display the same kindness they showed him. His gentlemanly side is used for dealing with clients and official business. But the side to be most feared is when he's angered. His facade and his true personality seem to mix into a twisted version of himself. He's dark, merciless and will not stop until his target is eradicated.

Motivations: Nexus is driven solely by his duty to the Council. Despite what may have happened in the past, and what has been forgotten he's come to terms with it all. Even without knowing the reason behind his amnesia he chooses to dedicate himself to the ones who took them in regardless of what may happen in the future.
Fears: Nexus fears losing his memories once more and losing the place he calls home. After having lost his memories once, he has no wish to start over once again and at times he fears falling back into a blank state, unsure of what he might become should it happen once more.

IV. MAGIC
Magic: Holy God Slayer
Caster or Holder: Caster
Description: Holy God Slayer is an ancient magic lost to time, the likes of which is hardly ever seen in modern days. Utilizing the holy element of light, this magic is capable of many different forms of offensive combat, as well as supplementary effects such as blinding and healing. From the outside looking in, Holy God Slayer is incredibly intimidating due to its light being a dark, almost black color, giving off the appearance of corruption itself, when in reality the opposite is actually the case.
Strengths: Holy God Slayer has amazing offensive capabilities, allowing the user to "solidify" the light created to produce impactful blows, as well as using light as a tool to blind the user's enemies. Another advantage this magic has over others is that the user is capable of consuming outside sources of light, and thus healing the user's physical wounds. While the Holy God Slayer is capable of consuming natural light, he is also capable of consuming light based spells cast by another user, including that cast by a Dragon Slayer of a similar alignment, while the opposite is not true.
Weaknesses: While Holy God Slayer has many strengths, its weaknesses are few but important. Firstly, this magic is severely lacking in defensive capabilities, able to only form simple things such as barriers. Another weakness of the magic, albeit completely situational, is that the Holy God Slayer cannot consume spells by a Demon Slayer, even that of the same alignment.
V. HISTORY
History: Nexus Creed is a man of prestigious background. His family descended from a long line of Slayers said to be as strong as God's themselves. This as well as a natural business sense helped their family rise to prestige in Fiore with incredible speed. Nexus was no exception. As a child he was considered a prodigy both in combat and his studies. When he came of age he was taught how to become a God Slayer and how to inherit the will of his house. All should have been good up until that point, however not everyone can live an easy life.
Nexus' father had been missing for years, no one could ever tell him why. Despite how much he wished to know the truth he was constantly kept busy with his duty to the family, and rumor of his father being a traitor was always whispered throughout the mansion. He tried to keep it in the back of his mind and simply live the best he could. His father however had different plans. After completing the ceremony that was to be his rite of passage the mansion was quickly engulfed in flames. No one could understand where it came from and with the ensuing panic no one really cared to figure it out. As people scattered trying to find an exit they were mercilessly cut down left and right by a man clad in black robes. Nexus could only watch in fear as everyone he knew was dispatched with ease.
When it came his turn to be slain by the man he paused, and through the light of the flames he could see the face of the man standing before him. Although scarred and aged he could still remember the face of his father. He tried to speak, to ask him why he was massacring his own family, but the words never reached his lips. He was knocked unconscious and left among the flames of his burning home. When he awoke he stared out at the charred remains of his mansion. The fire had been quelled and the bodies gone, but Nexus however had no recollection of it. Not simply the destruction, but everything up until the moment from which he opened his eyes was a complete blank. All he could remember was his name and his hate. A dislike for injustice and anything evil drove him to raise his body despite his amnesia. Without any idea of what to do he left the ruins of the mansion and walked on endlessly.
Years passed by and in time he had made a new home. He was picked up by the Rune Knights, a group of kind people who protected the law with their very lives, and could benefit from the power he had cultivated throughout his years of wandering. Although he wasn't entirely sure of what it was he someone instinctively knew how to use it, and with their help he hoped he could ease his somewhat mysterious pain. He didn't care to remember it if he could help it, he simply wanted to live a new life, a life of justice. He wasn't entirely the best for the job considering how much his personality had changed over time but deep down he meant well.
