Description
Finally... After xxx months Why do I have such a complex and struggled type and then I struggled with him too??? Aurghhhhhh...........="=If the design of Prime Marauder killed me once, then this time I really was put to Hell.
Yup, those details and ideas... My hand hurt. This is the hardest design I've ever made Q_______Q
And I made not only 1 version but totally until now I have 5 versions (2 for his main concept and 2 for skill cutting and 1 for his deformed Razing Wrath). I'm still thinking if I should made his demon/berserker/awakening form haven't made any of his berserk mode since that gives me a creep thinking how it's complicated><
Will post all of them soon xD
Still,itshouldn'tbeanexcusesinceI'mhopelesslylazy
However, it may be the design that I'm most satisfied until now. I'm happy that it has been done xD I don't remember exactly why I designed him like this, maybe it was from the keywords and the emotions when I thought about him xD
Oh, a little explanation here. I'm sure you recognized that in his main concept and skill cutting Cross's weapons are different. Well, he still uses his old sacred daggers, but the shape of it has changed due to the new power he had received xD (and they changes according to their master's status that I have mentioned before in Prime Marauder concept xD)
Yeah, one of them's new form is a... scimitar
Ok, now time's for AA backstory. It's kinda complex here
In fact, I still have a doubt about what I will write. It seems I have made Cross crazier and crazier K,hismentalcomplexreachesanunbelievablelevelOMG!
I hope it will be fine with a ton of traumas and depression???="=. Oh, and it may be long too
==================
PROFILE:
"This sadness... How many times have I experienced it?...
My eyes were blinded by darkness. I thought I would be alone again, tormented and loathed... I should receive that kind of punishment for eternity...
The devilish voice in my chest... it won't stop...
How scary! That despair...
But I have met them, and "him,"... that should be my greatest comfort...
Have I been forgiven? Can this be a salvation?
The message of that day... I love you, Elne... I love you, Leica, and... everyone.
That strength... that's right. I shouldn't run away. I will stand up and fight until I erase this shadow of chaos.
For me, and for them...
I shall return to their side, to protect whom I held precious...
So please, holy feathers of Elight, I vow my loyalty. Give me your strength and make me a God again!"

A legendary Aerial Assassin is an adept who is expert at the assassinating and stealthy art and masters it with the highest level. Their attacks are swift and smooth but each slash is extremely accurate, sharp and fatal. Getting experiences through a long, harsh training, they has also attained the zenith of combat skills.

The mournful melody will play. The grief of love and loss will be channeled into strength.
The feathers of holy wings will find its true master. The long, tragic story will turn to a new page.
It's time... for the return of the guardian..."
= Prophecy Book of Elios =
The potion that Cross had been using to calm his mind and suppress his darkness was losing its effect.
Day by day, he kept seeing bizarre images, the genocide in the past, the crime he would commit to his friends, the unavoidable destruction... And his chest hurt, torturing him with agony and sinful obsessions that was getting worse than ever.
The nightmare he was trying to escape had no mercy sparring him. The claws of that devil, the devilish whispers and laugh... all would turn out to be a certain future...
The memories about people he had harmed, the unexpectedly encounters arranged by Fate, the long lost terrible experiences he had been forced to live through again as when he was a Prime Marauder, all traumatized Cross and broke his mind terribly.
With this deep depression and despair, he came to an unsure feeling of what he was. Did his choice of keeping living and fighting was the right choice, when this struggle and conflict had no end?
Despite the training effort which made him more formidable than anyone, as well as the supports from his friends, Cross still couldn't keep his mind conscious. He even went berserk and acted recklessly. If this continued, his sane would abandon him forever.
The time for him was at its limit...
And it had turned out to be true, his fear. One day, one of his friends became the victim.
Getting shocked and lunatic about what he had done, Cross had no choice but running away.
He kept wandering around without a destination. As far as he could keep himself away from them, it was always good...
His heart was drown in loneliness and torment. Nothing was more horrible than this.
The further he went, the deeper he thought, the more doubtful he got about the last word of his best friend: "Please survive, Your Majesty."
What did it mean? Was it a forgiveness, a hope, or a punishment?
How could he protect anyone when he only brought suffering to them?
His cry had dried out. All the tears had become meaningless.
Roaming around the vast space of a lonely white mountain in a snowstorm day, it was as cold and empty as his heart. Couldn't bear the pain causing by the devil, he collapsed...
He was ready. The devil would erase his existence and brought a new calamity...
However,...
When he awoke, out of his surprise, Cross realized he was in Feita camp, rescued by Allegro and Leto.
They refused his gratitude, because... someone had led them to him.
Thanks to a dream, Allegro knew the day Cross would came...
Thanks to a certain person, he and Leto could save Cross in time.
And Allegro handed him a blank paper which the "ghost on the mountain" had asked the alchemist to keep safe until Cross awoke.
It was a weird paper to anyone, but the fallen king realized the invisible runes written on the paper immediately. It was a letter using a language which he had believed he would never see again.
A letter from his lost child...
"Dear Father,
If I can call you by that warming word.
This is the first time I communicate with you. It is quite embarrassing.
You know. I used to hate you, very much. I used to grow up knowing the dire death of my mother and nothing about the unknown face of my father.
Even on that day, when I saw the defeated man being chained and tortured in front of me, I had no idea he was my father.
Your scream didn't reach me.
The only thing I heard in my ears was you, the one who had betrayed my mother and forsaken me.
That grudge I harbored had never been forgotten, even when my body was torn apart and my soul was forced to rest.
I kept wandering, cursing and holding grudge on you for eternity.
But when I saw you again, witnessed your regretful tears and pain, watched the faint hope and illusion you was trying to catch, I was thinking...
And when I heard you called out my mother's name and my name in your dreams, in a mourning voice of a broken soul, I know your feelings toward us...
I was wrong. You loved me, and Mother so much, didn't you?
If it is true, then comes my word: I love you too, Father.
Please overcome this mysery. I believe a day when you can free yourself with your strength will come.
Because you are a good father. The love of Mother will protect you.
And I will too, watching over you.
Thank you for loving Mother, and helping her bring me to life.
Someday we will reunite again, for sure.
Give you all my love and gratitude,
Your son,
Elne Shievaro."
Was there anything better than this? For Cross, it was the greatest miracle.
Finally... that was the least one he had hoped to be forgiven.
Even when that child was only a spirit, even when he couldn't meet him.
Those words encouraged Cross. The ruined bravery would awake again. He would continue his journey to seek for the salvation, no matter how desperate and woeful it was.
And Leto said, deep in the underground of Feita shrine, he had heard the rumor about the lost holy feathers of a God, the shrine deity.
If Cross could purify the shrine's darkness and awake the power of the God, he would have a new hope.
A new challenge and departure for the exiled King, a test of will and faithfulness, a proof of love and belief, to become the incarnation of God or being buried...
That day, a birth was given to the new guardian blessed by Elight, the Phoenix God of light and wisdom. The name of that eternal man was Cross Shievaro, the Aerial Assassin.
Personality:
Cross is more collected and considerate in this job. He is cold, sometimes showing the sight of being in pain and suffering, but he is strong and determined. His traumas and depression sometimes cause him to be insane, but he keeps a good control of himself and acts decisively. He gains a strong sense of justice, being emotional but merciless to evil. People start to give great respect and faith to him.
Cross also has high acknowledgement of his bond to people and his friendship. He comes to understand more about life and love and value greatly what he got. He keeps treasuring his past about his precious people, having a thorough grasp about his existence. He puts the tragedy his lesson and keeps moving forward with the willpower he has channeled from his sorrow, making him formidable and respectable guardian of darkness.
Trivia:
***This makes Cross depressed and despair more than anything since he had blamed himself for not protecting and loving his son.
***Because Elne died with grudge, his soul couldn't rest in peace. He then became an ambassador of the Underworld and his remain power allowed him to move between two worlds. When he heard of Cross's resurrection, he searched for him with an intention to haunt and even kill his father. However, witnessing Cross's torment, Elne gradually obtain the truth and forgive Cross.
According to Elsword, Aerial Assassin holds the most extraordinary power. However, it is also the most outrageous strength since it comes from great sadness and despair which one can experience.
Cross's weapons, the Razing Wrath, get the most transformed in this job thanks to the powers Cross is wielding one is the potential of Apocalypse evil power and and the other is the holy power of Elight, creating two different marks engraved on each of his daggers. Also, thanks to the power that Elne gave him, the dagger with "Light" mark can extend its blade and transform into a scimitar.
AA is the only job Cross that can fly around with his headed wings.
The device behind Cross's ears is made by Apple before he became AA, which can be used to keep his mind stable. However, as it once lost its effect, Cross had to start his journey to find a new power.
==================
K, I have a Trivia to write for Cross too to explain things, but maybe I'll make it later this is sure long like Hell Lol

ClairSH In reply to Robin3377 [2014-10-02 04:22:20 +0000 UTC]
Thank you^^
Well, Rena see Cross as her great ancestor with ultimate respect and admiration because in the timeline I create, Rena believes that Cross's lineage is the Elf's progenitor which some records in the Elf's library, though Cross denied this fact because he confirmed that all of his people had died in his rampage. However, in some occasions, Rena's view for Cross is an upper level of affection, which can create jealousy for Raven. Nevertheless, Cross only sees Rena as his daughter.

Sorry to bother you again but may i ask what Cross relationship with the others are? (i don't mind if you can do because its a real big question; i'm just so interested in this character and i want to know what other characters think of him besides Rena you already told me that.

Well, they are his friends and benefactors, though with Cross's somewhat arrogant and disciplined personality, as well as his age, he saw them as children Lol. Despite of that, deep into him he was grateful to them. Because of his profound knowledge and experiences, he saw through their potentials and quietly did everything he could to help and encouraging El gang. When he felt he could harm them and there was no way he could avoid, he left them to find his own resolve, even sacrificed himself for their sakes and safety (it happened in one of his job path and I'm trying to write it as a story but stop at chapter 2 because of my works and other projects - also about Elsword )
P.s: So sorry for the late reply because I was so busy

I-love-his-hair Now do people still call him look like Zero???>
Oh yeah, those details... I glad that you like it
And his tattoo too will work harder in Harsh Marauder and Abyss Predator designs since he looks sexy with that Lol
Yup, a while... Wait! it's been nearly a year since the time I posted AA sketch?O.o It's the bad result of not having a clear ideas of color scheme when designing In fact, that's what I got trouble with.
But honestly, designing with keywords and purpose is harder a lot than random designs. I mean, I want my design fit the character the most and come out as the best result, and by look at them, people can see how it fit the character's personality, ability or backstory... I want to give my watchers a sense and touch their emotions Lol ok, talking so much but in fact I mostly pour my own "selfish" emotions to it Lol
Ah, his information, now the Trivia is something I really want to deal with Lol (too much obscure in the backstory I think xD)
And that AA backstory makes me want to draw Elne too. Having sketched him in a skill icon but I'm not so pleased with it, so I want to make an artwork like Erza piece xD
