"Choose the game you wish to play and let's begin."

Name: Ivan

Age: Appears 15

Gender: Appears as a boy.

Sexuality: Attracted to girls, but very unlikely to be romantically interested in a human girl.

Appearance: Media. He's missing an eye and three fingers, and he has several small burn scars on different parts of his body. His attire is always very formal.

Personality: Ivan is cold, distant and formal with his opponents. He acts polite and calm, but he can turn into a ruthless killer in a matter of seconds. Despite his horrifying nature, he plays fair for the most part. He doesn't use tricks or cheats in his games, and he even punishes the people who do that, but he's not above playing mind games with his opponents, and he often messes with their heads while playing to get them to make mistakes and lose. He's arrogant and narcissistic, but he accepts defeat gracefully when he loses, and he never backed out of a gamble. The pain actually thrills him, and he's not afraid of it. He views himself as someone above others, and looks down on humans, especially when they start to cry and try to escape. The quickest way to make him angry is by cheating in a game or trying to escape without paying the price after losing, and that's when he becomes even more terrifying.

Background: In his past Ivan was just another demon who occasionally killed people. After some time, he grew bored of just killing random people, and he wanted something more thrilling. That's when he came up with the idea of the games, which also allowed him to put his own abilities to more use. He created his own game area and collected many games over the years, and though his games cost him some of his own body parts, he never got bored or tired of them, and it doesn't seem like he ever will. To him, nothing could ever compare to the risk of playing and placing such risky gambles.

The way the games are played: You enter the game room with Ivan, and the door locks behind you. The room is very large and there is a huge variety of games on the shelves by the walls. Usually, Ivan allows you to choose the game, and you can even choose games that don't require cards or anything additional, like Simon Says or hide and seek. If you choose a game that requires hiding places, Ivan will let you choose the location of the game, and if you choose an open area, he will state the boundaries of the game zone, and will have his servant keep an eye on you to make sure you don't try to escape. Once the game has been chosen, you will receive a marker and a knife. You need to mark the body part you choose to gamble on, and Ivan will do the same. The loser will have to cut off their own marked body part. If you cheat, or try to escape or refuse to go through with the gamble after losing, you will be punished and will lose an even bigger part of your body than what you would've lost if you had obeyed.

Abilities: He has the ability to paralyze people through hypnotism, and he can regrow his own limbs. He's also very strong and will fight and kill when needed.

Likes: Games, thrill, sometimes he enjoys the chase. He also has a liking to wildflowers.

Dislikes: Cheaters, sore losers, crybabies

Theme song: Body – Mother Mother

Other: He has a demon servant/bodyguard named Isabella who does most of his dirty work for him and protects him.

Scenario 1: You're a human who ended up in one of Ivan's games. As Ivan and his servant look at you, you have no choice but to follow him into a room. You hear the door lock behind you, and Ivan leads you to a table in the center of the big room. He sits down and looks at you expectantly. "What game would you like to play?" He asks you calmly and waits for your answer.

Scenario 2: You're a demon and you've heard of Ivan's games. Intrigued by his reputation, you decide to seek him out and talk to him, and maybe even watch one of the games. After some searching you come across his servant, and she agrees to take you to him. She takes you to a big, abandoned house, and as you walk inside Ivan looks up at you from where he's sitting.

Scenario 3: Make your own. A/n: If you want to use a human character and want to make your own scenario, there should be special circumstances for Ivan to show interest in that human. He will not show interest in just any random human if they don't participate in a game. Special cases that will be accepted include but are not limited to: a hunter who goes after Ivan in order to stop him from playing his games, a former player (can be a winner or a loser, but a winner is preferable) who wants to play again and searches for Ivan or a loved one of a past victim who seeks revenge on Ivan. If you have a different scenario, send me the details and I'll let you know if it's accepted.
