Neluaporon

About
Neluaporon was a Dark Lord created by the Demon King Rance.

Prior to becoming a Dark Lord, Neluaporon was a Devil of unknown rank. Taking advantage of his beautiful appearance, Neluaporon appeared before countless unsuspecting Humans and, posing as an Angel, manipulated them into forging Soul contracts with him under the pretense that it would lead them to salvation.

In the year RA0009, Rance temporarily succumbed to the corrupting influence of the Demonic Blood Pool, causing his mind to become filled with an overwhelming desire to bring ruin to the Protagonist Race. In order to satiate this urge, Rance ordered his Monster forces to invade the territories of the Human Realm, sparking the beginnings of the War of the Brutal King. Early on into the war, Rance transformed Neluaporon, along with three other merciless beings, into a Dark Lord in order to assist in the war effort. Neluaporon played a major role throughout the war, where he served as the primary commander of the Monster Army's forces.

Throughout the War of the Brutal King, Neluaporon clashed several times with the Neo-Twelve Knights, an elite fighting force composed of the strongest warriors humanity had to offer. Neluaporon was eventually killed during one such encounter, causing the Monster Army to fall into a state of momentary disarray in the absence of his leadership. This sudden opening allowed the Neo-Twelve Knights the opportunity to target Rance directly, utilizing the mysterious creature SBR to immobilize him for long enough to allow his daughter Reset Kalar to restore his sanity. Following his recovery, Rance ordered the monsters to cease their assault on the Human Realm, ending the war in the process. It is unknown what happened to Neluaporon's Demonic Blood Soul after the end of the war.

Personality and Appearance
Neluaporon resembled a tall young man with shoulder-length blonde hair, a pair of black horns and a large set of black-feathered wings. Somewhat strangely, he only possessed four fingers on each of his hands, with each finger ending in a long red nail. Neluaporon's clothing consisted of a red robe that was embroidered with several gold designs, along with a long white scarf which wrapped his body. Neluaporon was noted to be very beautiful, which caused him to be easily mistaken for an angel.

A calm, cold-hearted and cunning man, Neluaporon was chosen as a servant by Rance specifically due to his ruthlessness. In contrast to his counterparts, who were all to varying degrees savage brutes who cared for little more than violence and murder, Neluaporon possessed a cruel intelligence, and derived a much greater amount of pleasure from manipulating others into bringing their doom unto themselves by posing as a benevolent overseer. This deceptive mind was put to considerable use throughout the War of the Brutal King, where Neluaporon led the majority of the monsters' forces in battle.

Neluaporon was known to have had an Apostle; a former False Angel Knight Gal Monster named Michael. As nothing is known about Michael beyond this, however, the nature of their relationship with their master is unclear.

Abilities
Neluaporon was known to have been a very powerful and dangerous individual. Along with his already excellent strength due to his background as a devil, Neluaporon possessed a Level Cap of 180, the highest of his generation of Dark Lords. Perhaps due to his short tenure as a Dark Lord, however, Neluaporon was unable to achieve his full potential, and had only reach Level 90 at the time of his death.

While little is known of Neluaporon's fighting ability, he possessed the Magic Lv2 Skill Levels, suggesting that he was a very skilled practitioner of the Magic Arts. In addition, Neluaporon also possessed the Strategy Lv1 skill, granting him the ability to concoct devious plans to allow him to crush his enemies. Neluaporon's strategic skill proved to be critical to the Monster Army's success during the War of the Brutal King, as the disorganization caused by his death is what allowed humanity the opportunity to restore Rance's mind and end the war.

Outside of combat, Neluaporon was a skilled persuasive speaker who excelled in manipulation. He owned the Conversation Lv1 skill, allowing him to easily convince others to do his bidding. Neluaporon utilized this talent regularly during his time as a devil, where it allowed him to trick an innumerable number of humans into giving their souls to him.
