The Spiteful Beast

Birth Place: -He cannot recall; Official records on him claim Laos-
Hair: Black, relatively messy and unkempt

Height: 5'5" ft
Weight: 166 lbs.
Faction: Originally Grand Eastern Union, currently Central Alliance
Appearance:
Standing at a fairly short height with somewhat low weight, Rahu remains possibly one of the Central Alliance's most unusual and potentially strange allied acquisitions. While his black hair makes him no odder than anyone else, the creepy red eye color leaves him rather unnerving to look at, and this is before factoring in his personality. Almost always seen with a disheveled appearance, he lacks a sense of professionalism unless instructed by higher-ups. At his worst, he can almost come off as a hobo among military officials. Alot of this is generally based on poor living and environmental conditions he dealt with, and is on the path to adjusting to life among normal humans... Slowly. Very slowly.
Personality:
Considered the problem child of the Central Alliance, to put it mildly. Being a Super-Soldier refugee from the Grand Eastern Union, there was a universally agreed-upon understanding that something would be wrong with him... What surprised others was just how wrong: Rahu is borderline sociopathic, violent and aggressive to an unnatural degree, and a generally off-putting and unpleasant individual. Swearing bloody murder upon the Super Human Research Institutes responsible for creating him, he's as clear a danger to himself as he is to enemies. The only reason his presence seems to be tolerable is that he has enough... Just enough rational understanding about him to acknowledge that Central America is not his enemy, and so he is able to communicate with a great deal less venom towards allies. However, it is still a work in progress, and those who push his buttons too much tend to get told off bluntly.
Inwardly, he is painfully aware of his behavior and struggles to become socially acceptable, though long-running scars from experimentation keep him from progressing faster than he can, and so it has become a slow road of recovery for him. Feeling most alive on battlefields, it is also where he shows his most violent tendencies, often terminating G.E.U targets with extreme prejudice and equal amounts of scathing language and violence. It's surmised that the only time he may possibly look like he's at peace is in his sleep, but few have ever sought to confirm or deny this. It has since become an inside-joke among the CA if whether or not there is a time that Rahu doesn't look like he's ready to slay something.
Background:
Rahu's story began within the confines of one of the Super Human Research Institute's laboratories. Often times competing against other divisions for the most acceptable results, in their bid for power they committed more atrocities than humanely acceptable. Orphans, rather than being treated like potential future soldiers, were often considered little more than lab rats and among them was the boy that would later become known as Rahu Valefor. The military wanted capable soldiers, and to that end, the labs boasted they would be given demons, While it seemed like an innocent comment that spoke volumes of what sort-of soldiers the G.E.U would be given, it hid the truth in plain sight. Acceptable results were not very acceptable, and both physical and mental modifications were made overtime to prospective Super-Soldiers.
Among the genetic and mental experimentation, subjects were often trained against one another to the bitter death, resulting in greater loss of life than usual. Few other labs had a mortality rate like this one, but many were covered up in order to allow their continued work. Considered a blessing at the time, Rahu would come to be known as one of the best they'd seen yet, and at the time he held this notion in high regard. However, the 'best' wasn't good enough for them and eventually they continued to tamper with him, making refinements here and there that managed to further damage his already-shaky psyche. Eventually feeling it was too much, others from the program eventually helped to reach out to him and let him know they could all pull through together, giving him a semblance of hope for their future as long as he continued to do his best.
Unfortunately, no such happy end awaited them as many were either killed off during experimenting, training against one another, or even by scientists directly when they refused to cooperate. Little by little his mentality began to crack as the kind souls he took refuge among left his life and exposed his mind to ever more horrors by the program. Toward the very end, when two successes had finally been made to stand equal, the final straw that broke him was to pit the two against one another to the death. Unable to kill one another, his closest friend instead ended his own life, declaring Rahu the first 'true' success of the program... However with the declaration came the shattering of all that kept him hopeful, and proceeded to violently purge any and all involved with his program, becoming known as one of the few Super-Soldiers to turn homicidal tendencies on their own allies. Most involved were slain, and the few that hid to escape his wrath were forced to reveal everything to their superiors once the dust settled. The lab was eventually shut down, the records of all known losses no longer a secret and becoming a grim reminder that a lack of observation over their own forces could lead to catastrophies like this. Though all official records claim that all subjects are now deceased, their leaders are well aware that somewhere in the world is a greatly unstable Super-Soldier.
Following his escape from the labs, Rahu eventually stole one of the lab-designated Super Soldier units and fled the G.E.U. He now wandered a world that he did not remember with skills he wasn't sure he earned or not, with little more than mindless and bloody revenge on his mind. Even if the labs responsible were effectively ruined beyond use, the ones who put them in power still existed... he would see the entirety of the G.E.U aflame to satisfy his hunger for retribution. His travels eventually led him to running afoul of the Central Alliance. Though violently opposing them with every fiber of his being, he was too weak and exhausted to put up complete resistance, and was captured, When the hysteria had come and gone, Rahu realized that he was faced not with the Grand Eastern Union but the Central Alliance. Unwilling to make more enemies than he already had, he divulged the full range of information he could and his reason for being. Despite initial hesitation to set him free, higher-ups were willing to allow him to work with them if only so that he had a place to stay and didn't get himself needlessly killed.
For better or worse, he was drafted into the Central Alliance forces, and undergoing slow training to normalize his behavior. It has not been an easy task, however...
