Blaize Farrel (Also mostly known as "The Watcher") is the second antagonist in "Arcanum".

He was an artist in his earlier life, being a game developer, mostly making grimdark and horroristic video games along with making bunch of concept arts. Starting out as a Avalonian concept artist and game dev on Avalon, he was trained for handling his profession even though he trained himself most of his life before, thus developing an outstanding talent and affinity for the job.

As the years went by, he started dealing with his inner demons, and this got worse, when his best friend ended his own life. If this wasn't enough for Blaize, his family started falling apart as well, having no proper role models in order to prepare him for the life of adults. But with a lot of struggling he tamed all of his demons, but he had to pay the price for it; losing his sense for real justice in the world, only living for his ideals and personal sense of justice, living from moment to moment.

On Inertia, Blaize wanted to do the same job he did on Avalon before it was invaded, but he didn't really succeed due to his selfishness, and he got succumbed into the void, transforming into the Lurker and Watcher Of The Shadows. Taking care of all Shrine Spaces in a wrong way; corrupting them in order to maintain his strength to tame his demons.

Appearance

Human

Blaize is a 6 feet 6 inch tall male Avalonian humanoid, with a masculine frame that displays his features and has hints of muscle underneath. He is currently wearing his dark navy knitted turtleneck with a dark grey belt going across his torso for weapons, black fingerless knitted gloves, dark grey cargos, and black steel leather boots. But what makes his appearance iconic is his long post coat, which he opens sometimes. He also wears a black knitted beanie, but rarely.

His face and body is human in shape and structure, with clear, sand skin. He has chestnut eyes, with pale purple circles under them. The messy dark chestnut hair on his head is parted by a pair of human ears, yet they're barely visible. He also has a dark chestnut beard, but rather a stubble.

Blaize really rarely uses this form intentionally, it can be rather seen when the "Lurker" and "Watcher" forms are broken.

"Lurker"

Blaize's Lurker form is his primary shadow form. Everything on him is the same, except for the colors and the textures. In this form, he's literally a shadow spirit, but with a twist; when natural light touches this form's surface, it somewhat reflects it, showing his curves and outlines, except for his face. In the "Lurker" form his nose cannot be seen, same for his eyes; only two circles can be seen, and an almost constant creepy smile.

Blaize uses this form intentionally, it can be rather useful when he wants to show a little more detail of himself, blending in with the shadows almost completely.

"Watcher"

Blaize's Watcher form is his secondary shadow form. Everything on him is the same, except for his curves and the outlines. In this form, he's a shadow spirit, literally; when natural light touches this form's surface, it doesnt reflect any of it, not showing his curves and outlines, this goes for his face as well. In the "Watcher" form his nose cannot be seen, same for his eyes; only two circles can be seen, and an almost constant creepy smile.

Blaize somewhat uses this form intentionally, it can be rather useful when he wants to show only his silhouette, blending in with the shadows completely.
