Evil Collides! ((plot opening post)) WHO: Thezor, Gellert Grindelwald, various demons & Death Eaters WHEN: May 22, 2025 WHERE: The Underworld WHAT: Thezor begins his reign. RATING: R
The plan, according to his Seer, was for Thezor to take power on his 25th birthday. Well, he was a few years shy of that. But Thezor wasn't really the kind to wait patiently for some crackpot prophecy to come to fruition. If Thezor wanted something, he took it. And considering his birthright, it wasn't hard. Since he was a child he was able to incinerate those who infuriated him, to electrocute ignorance, to strike fear into the hearts of anyone who dared cross him with little more than a blink of his eyes. Okay... so it was a little more than that. Thezor's eyes, as all the Sources' before him, bled pure black when he threw his weight around. Having inherited the Source's power at conception, Thezor was no newbie to his abilities.
That's why the most recent in his Seer caretakers was now a pile of ash at his feet. The warlocks at his disposal and the demons with power over time and death were all waiting on bended knee for his command. Thezor had called them all to him, despite the Seer's warnings, no more than an hour ago. And now it was time for Thezor to take the first step, the step he had been planning for years.
"You're all in agreement? This British Wizard is the one? This Gellert Grindelwald?" The demons all nodded in agreement. Thezor waved a hand at a table where paperwork, a wand, a few other magical items were strewn. Above the mess a small series of holographic images of Gellert appeared. Thezor looked them over. He'd read the papers, he'd studied this wizard's history. There were a few mortals he would have chosen over him, but of the magical beings and the connections between mortal and magical, this Gellert was the best.
"Bones and soul." He ordered. The items were brought before him and Thezor examined them. The soul, as with most souls this evil, had been kept in a crystal and saved in the Underworld for just such a situation. Thezor dumped the wand and other items on top of the bones. He dropped the soul crystal on top of it last. And then he chanted. It was nearly five minutes of chanting before the body was whole and Gellert awoke.
Once the wizard was coherent, Thezor wasted no time dropping the mother of all surprises on him. "I am Thezor, the Source of All Evil. You know of me, no doubt." Wizards, at one point, were aware of the existence of demons. Maybe this one knew. Thezor didn't wait to find out. "I've given you new life to continue your plans. All I ask in return is that you answer to me. You will bring the Death Eaters, your Knights of Walpurgis, to San Francisco and Salem. In return, I will send my demons to England to herald your return. You don't need to know anything else for now. You have one week to accomplish this. If you fail, the limbo your soul remained in for the past twenty years will be nothing compared to the eternity of hell experienced by those who betray the Source."
