Personality:
Artorias does not like anyone. He has a deep seeded hatred to the world. However, that does not mean that he is a cold hearted husk of emotion. He likes the sins alot, the few people with power matching his own. He's not lazy like his sin would entail, rather he works at a fairly hard and fast pace. He finds his sin to be a reminder to keep himself attuned to the world. However one thing he admitedly loves is his sleep.
History:
Before becoming exiled, artorias had a lover, a best friend, and a life. He had lived in the forest in a makeshift cabin with the two. His wolf Athos and his lover Ciaran. Life was good. Then like some shitty love story gone wrong he lost it all. His dog Athos was killed. Ciaran had been separated from him... Artorias was lost in rage. He killed the men who were hired to get Ciaran. Blindly swinging in a bloodlust rage he had done the unthinkable. He had slashed Ciaran. The cut was fatal hitting her neck, she had five minutes left of her life to which Artorias held her the whole time. He refuses to ever speak the final words she said to him, for they were only ever meant for him. He became nothing more than an exiled depressed drifter. he goes back to Ciaran's grave in the forest every year at the same time. paying his respects to her and Athos.
Powers:
Slumber:
Artorias falls into a deep and rejuvenating slumber. Healing his body and mind, but of course leaves him more than vulnerable. He can get up as quick as he can fall asleep. Depending on how well he sleeps during this time, he can wake up with more strength, a vitality buff, or even an "aura" of positivity. (The aura gives a light stat boost to allies in his vicinity.)
Yawn:
Artorias releases a rather loud yawn that makes all who hear or witness it extremely drowsy. This can have the direct effects of sleep deprivation to the target, causing hallucinations, depression, and general weakness. This does not directly put the target to sleep, but in due time the body will take it's course.
Horror:
Artorias will sort through the enemies recent nightmares and make the worst things he can think of to mentally fray his target. This can also brainwash the target to turn against allies.
Recuperative:
Artorias will sap energy from his foes and use it as his own. This can only be done once per target and multiple drains will just lead to a maintenance of the current higher amount of energy. This will often leave the targets more than just tired.
Strengths:
Artorias has grotesque amounts of physical strength, being able to make the power of a Rhino's charge look like nothing more than a tumbleweed hitting a wall. This in turn makes him very dexterous and he can take quite alot of abuse.
Artorias is a very wise man and has bountiful amounts of knowledge and he is always willing to share it with the sins. This makes him rather skilled in enchanting and the art of magic, even though he doesn't use magic often.
Silence is something unexpected from the embodiment sloth, but Artorias can keep to a hush as long as he gets his beauty sleep.
Weaknesses:
Artorias requires twice the amount of sleep a normal human would ever require, causing poor Artorias to be left vulnerable for long periods of time while sleeping.
Artorias will become easily frustrated and often cannot vent his anger properly, leading to unnecessary violence at times which can cause a shatter of crucial trust in Artorias.
Artorias is nearly deaf, but has taken the time to master the art of reading lips. This deafness can be a huge disadvantage when he needs to be suddenly awoken.
(Without his armor he wears this, except for the hood. He wears his armor helmet all the time.)
