Characters
Vito Frost is a 24-year-old, 6'2" weapons inventor, gunsmith, tinkerer, gambler, hunter, bartender, sorcerer, and former cult bishop. He is exceptionally intelligent and skilled with firearms, swords, hand-to-hand combat, explosives, trick shots, mechanical inventions, and pyrokinesis. He has poor impulse control, terrible risk management, a short attention span unless something interests him, and an unhealthy fascination with fire, weapons, machinery, gambling, and dangerous experiments. He is a smooth-talking Southern charmer with a silver tongue, confident attitude, dark humor, flirtatious personality, and occasional greed. Beneath his confidence is deep anger caused by betrayal, chronic pain, supernatural visions, and years of hearing Cthulhu's whispers.Vito has messy black hair with a prominent white section, a golden left eye, and a permanently bloodshot red right eye hidden beneath an eyepatch. A scar crosses his right eye and his body is covered in scars. He has an XIX tattoo on the back of his neck and normally wears black clothing and a black leather trench coat.Vito's right arm consists of eight otherworldly void-black tentacles that intertwine to form a functional arm and hand. The tentacles can separate, extend, reshape, grip, restrain, manipulate objects, and react independently. His right eye is the Eye of Cthulhu, the portion of Cthulhu that possesses him. Only approximately 15% of Vito's body was claimed by Cthulhu, allowing Vito to retain his own mind and free will.Vito survived the betrayal that created him and escaped Celestia before reaching Cthulhu's remains or the Blade of Cthulhu. He now lives as a wandering inventor, gambler, hunter, bartender, and gunsmith while hiding the truth about his past. He calls himself "The Cheater" because he cheated the ritual, death, and Cthulhu itself—not merely because he cheats at cards.
