His eyes are a rather penetrating blue, narrow and slightly hooded. His incisors are a little more prominent and pointed than is perhaps usual.

Naga Form:
A large sea serpent with a long flattened head decorated with impressive fangs and threataning horns. His scales are of a deep and dark blue, a snake like pattern of gold running down his upper side. Even in Naga form there is something human about his face, perhaps the expression within it. His eyes remin the same colour, though the pupil is much larger. There are times in Naga form where the he keeps blue scaled shoulders and arms, other times, when he is true to form with no human appendixes, merely a serpentine body that swims with powerful speed.

POWER:

Hydrokinesis: A power enabling his role as a bringer of fertility, his hydrokinesis is drawn from his surroundings, but also, when no water is present his own personal energy in conjuring water.

FAMILY:

Father: Karkotaka - Descendant of the original Karkotaka a Naga who could control the weather
Mother: Nagin Kadru
Darcy has numerous siblings, some from the same batch of eggs laid by his Naga mother, others from different batches. Not a particularly maternal or paternal creature needless to say his relationship with his parents isn’t a close one.

HOMETOWN:

The seas of Mount Sumeru

PERSONALITY:

Deceptive:
As you might assume a serpent can be sly and deceitful, generally seen in a negative light, these traits and its venomous attributes give the snake their bad reputation. Despite living in relative peacefulness, when the situation calls for it Ethan Darcy has a knack for making the people who stroll onto his bad side look the wrong way while they are punished from the other direction with skill a magician would long for. His naturally deceitful instincts allow very few people to learn much about his true nature, always slithering out of reach before anyone gets close enough to learn his true self.
Loyal:
Royal protectors and defenders of nature, Ethan takes his roles of protection very seriously, whether it be a human who has treated him well, or a lake that has come under threat, whatever task he is assigned to his loyalty is unshakable.
Vengeful:
Protectors of nature in many cultures, the Naga are traditionally portrayed as water protectors, protecting lakes and rivers. They were also bringers of rain and fertility. Despite the assumption that the Naga are cruel and evil beings, it is generally acknowledged that they are only malevolent to humans when they are, or nature is, mistreated, bringing disasters such as floods when wronged. Like any good Naga, Ethan will always get his revenge on those who have wronged him.
Proud:
Aware of his noble birth and the past lives of great Nagas who took on important roles in history, Ethan his a proud and vain man. He takes great care in his human appearance, and in Naga form even his scales seem bright and noble. He cannot resist the easy charm with which a serpant can seduce and so enjoys his time in New York very much. Who can resist a man in a suit?

PAST:

Deep in the cavernous Mount Sumeru seven Naga eggs were hatched, the tiny serpents cracking and slithering from their shelly homes to a new, dark and decaying world.
The mother to these serpents, being serpent herself, was not as you can imagine, particularly maternal. She told her children of the changing world they had been brought into, a world emptying of it's greens and blues of nature and filling with a thick black smoke of industrialisation and revolution. She told them of their ancestry, their father a Naga of most influencial blood, directly decended from the great Karkotaka, a Naga who controlled the weather. With the knoweldge of the world they lived in and their rich heritage she sent them on their way, each to their proper place. The place they would grow and the area they would protect. Some were sent to the fresh rivers of the mountain; some to it's lakes; some to it's underground waters and one to it's outer ocean.
It was in the deep salt waters the one they called Ettah grew, swiming the cool blue depths and patrolling the shores. For the humans who lived in his area he was a much welcomed yet feared addition to their world. His name was Sanskrit for "breath", and Ettah was able to seemingly breathe the life back into the crops of his area, or so it appeared to the humans. It looked like he had inherited the powerful attributes of his ancestors.
Living in relative peacefulness, Ettah grew and matured into a wise Nage with enough cunning to know that to remain unseen breeds awe. After living in comfort for over a century he was finally reunited with others of his kind, it was not however under pleasant circumstances.
As a young and relatively powerful Naga, Ettah was chosen to carry out a new duty. When his mother had told him long ago of the slow and rotting death of the earth she had not predicted the rapid speed with which it would advance. Now another threat risked being unleashed upon the earth and Ettah was the one bestowed with the responsibility of stopping it.
Sent to New York as a protector it was dependant upon him to use the discretion gleaned frim his life in Mount Sumeru, the deception learned from his dealings with the humans and his strength and loyalty to protect and prevent any harm from coming to the new world. Then perhaps one day he will return to his home in the Eden that was Mount Sumeru

PRESENT:

Now going by the name of Ethan Darcy, Ettah managed to blend into the City life reasonably well and with considerable discretion. It was lucky, he supposed, that although not being plain looking, he was by most accounts rather clean cut and ordinary.
Usually dressed in smart, well fitting suits for his willowy physique, he worked a quiet job and lived a quiet unsuspicious lifestyle. Keeping a house as close to the sea waters as he could, enabled him to indulge in rather secretive swims on occasion, although his priority was always his rather weighty task of protection.
Unfortunately for this Naga, the pull of his skills of fertility didn't seem to stick just to the crops of the poor farmers from Mount Sumeru. Without the stricter religious code of the East and the fear with which they treated strangers, the women of New York were rather unavoidable attractions to him. His cunning and charm and his easy flirtation made it clear how the serpent was blamed by some religious factions for seducing Eve to eat that apple.
Ettah just has to make sure he never forgets to use protection. Fertility powers and all...

OTHER INFO:

The Naga are well known to be fond of milk, and Ethan is no exception. In New York he is able to indulge in his favourite drink, also aquiring a taste for the human alcohol, White Russians fast becoming his drink of choice. He lives what could be called a simple lifestyle, but that is not to say it isn't indulgent, he is a serpent after all.
