Sickle

Sickle is the god that created the world of Bolganio and is referred to as the Master of the Heavenly Yard. Unable to interfere with the human world as a god, he moves freely about it in the form of a bat, observing those who reside in the world and their actions.

Early Life
Residing in the Heavenly Yard, Sickle was close friends with the gods Held, Levia, and Behemo. Sometime during the second era, Sickle decided to create a new world, spawning the third era and the creation of its landscape, including the Bolganio continent, and rules. When creating the humans that inhabited the landscape, Sickle used Held as the basis for its Elphe race of people. Giving the twin gods new forms, Sickle made Levia and Behemo into a twin-headed dragon, Levia-Behemo. Unhappy with their new, ugly form, the gods spread their unhappiness to the humans and broke many of Sickle's rules.

528 years before the establishment of the EC calendar, Sickle tasked Held with watching over the twin gods to protect humanity from them, incarnating the god as an immoveable tree. Wishing to keep the gods' interaction with humans to a minimum, Sickle incarnated himself as a bat and roamed his new world's landscape, although becoming largely forgotten by the humans he created.

Observing Evillious
As the third era continued, Sickle observed multiple individuals, including Elluka Clockworker, whose resurrection through the ark Sin made her break Sickle's rule of time. Despite her being a friend of his own companion, Held, Sickle had kept an eye on her as she continued to live on for abnormal standards. He also kept watch over Irina Clockworker and her actions over the course of history, suspecting she became aware of his identity. At some point, he also became fond of the boy Allen Avadonia and watched over him even after he became "Irregular".

Personality and Traits
Sickle was a well meaning, and kind-hearted god, and cared for the other gods in the Heavenly Yard as his friends. However, after Levia-Behemo became destructive for his actions, he recognized his fellow deities could be dangerous and assured Held would not follow the same fate, rooting him to the ground as a tree so he couldn't move freely; despite this, he remained friends with Held even after the god become a tree. He was also responsible and lawful, having made his own rules for the universe that both gods and humans were expected to follow. After witnessing the actions of Irina Clockworker, he considered her malicious and dangerous to the world he created.

Skills and Abilities
As the god of creation, Sickle was able to create an entire universe, its worlds, laws, and even its inhabitants. The extent of his power allowed him to even recreate the gods in new, mortal forms, as he had done when creating the Third Era. As a bat, Sickle was able to fly, and had thus used his wings to travel quickly and observe those who inhabited his world. Furthermore, Sickle was the Master of the Heavenly Yard, presiding over the yard and permitting humans to reside in it as an after life. He could also sprinkle rice upon humans, causing a black box to appear in the sky overhead.

Character Connections
Held: A close friend of Sickle. Sickle got along well with Held and valued his contributions to the worlds that the creator deity constructed, later modeling the Elphe race after Held's old appearance. Appreciating Held's wise sense of judgment, Sickle trusted him to monitor Levia and Behemo in Bolganio; despite this, he was careful to prevent Held from also causing problems in a mortal form.

Levia: A fellow god. Sickle originally trusted Levia and worked with her during the Second and Third Eras, turning her into a powerful mortal form to watch over Bolganio. After Levia began causing problems with her brother, Sickle recognized the danger that they both faced and sent Held to monitor them.

Behemo: A fellow god. Sickle originally trusted Behemo and worked with him during the Second and Third Eras, turning him into a powerful mortal form to watch over Bolganio. After Behemo began causing problems with his sister, Sickle recognized the danger that they both faced and sent Held to monitor them.

Elluka Clockworker: A woman Sickle kept an eye on. Although acknowledging that she is a friend of Held, Sickle disapproved of how Elluka's broken his rule of time, enjoying an extended lifespan through unnatural means.

Irina Clockworker: Another woman Sickle kept an eye on. Sickle deeply disapproved of the pain and suffering Irina brought to others, considering her an incarnation of malice, and felt she deserved close surveillance.

Banica Conchita: A woman whom Sickle had observed. Sickle found Banica's actions and transformation into a demon deplorable; he believed that she was incapable of understanding the situation, particularly in becoming the Master of the Graveyard, and that she didn't comprehend what consequences there could be.

Irregular: A boy Sickle's given attention to. Sickle became fond of Allen Avadonia and oversaw his transformation into Irregular, finding him an oddity that was beyond the scope of Sickle's creation.
