NAME!?! - Malkav That's not my Name! But it will work cause I can't remember my name!
NICK NAMES!?! - The Mad Architect, Madness Incarnate, The Architect, The Mad One, Malkav the Mad, Nimrod, Mania, Don't forget Senior Shiny hat!
AGE!?! - 10,000 years give or take a few centuries
GROUP!?! - Demon
POWER(S)!?!- Madness Network, Dementation (His body contained far more powers but he didn't carry them with him as they didn't work in his new form)
Madness Network: A form of demonic transportation unique to Malkav derived from his unique existence. Being a purely psychic demon Malkav has no body to teleport about, and thus he moves about along what he has coined the Madness network. He has claimed that all that thinks is connected via a subconscious network. This is how humans know monsters and other beings exist despite never encountering one. And Malkav lives here in this network. He can even move between worlds by jumping into a native's mind. He is able to possess people using this though strong willed people might cause him to go off and seek a more pliable host.
This network, called the cobweb, is viable and accessible among the ranks of the Madness Demons and the Hand of Malkav may guide these demons. They use it to communicate with each other to a degree, and may hint at a vast organization among these demons not even they are aware of. Once resulting in the entire species appearing at one place at one time to force down a terrible demon trying to control a couple of them. That demon isn't talked about anymore.
Dementation: The Magic of madness. Malkav's for most ability is mastery over the ebbs and flow of madness itself. He can see how chaos flows together, gain glimpses into the inner workings of things, see beyond the realm of the sane and learn things no one should know. He can also be turned outward, spreading madness, removing inhibitions, striking out with mental illnesses, or inflicting prophetic visions on someone. And there's a 10% chance the visions are legit too.
ALLIANCE!?!- Evil

That stupid song I can't get out of my head

Lucifer
Something I can't seem to remember, but it was bad![/ul]
STRENGTHS!?! -
WEAKNESS!?! -
Even he doesn't know why he does things sometimes[/ul]
OVERAL!?! - Malkav is completely and utterly insane and there is no two ways around it. He has been called madness incarnate and that is very close to the truth when it comes to this ancient demon. He is feared and respected, for he is incredibly dangerous and his knowledge and insight into anything is terrible to behold. But getting that insight is a dangerous prospect because he is fickle "I like pickles." He claims to know the great secret of the universe but will believe him because it is too terrible a concept to accept. "None of this is real! It's all fiction!"
Despite his unending madness, he is capable of recognizing some things, and they are his family, as dysfunctional as they are. He knows his brothers, he knows his sister who in their shared madness he took as his wife. He knows that his father and daughter lie in the heavens beyond his reach at the moment. He knows his grandfather still lurks out there and Malkav still holds a sense of loyalty to his grandfather and tries to make up his betrayal during the fall of the first city. This one act, the start of his madness, is the only thing in his long and horrid life that he feels guilty about.
Malkav can lose entire centuries to a haze like dream state where he is not entirely in control of his actions. Not even he knows the nature behind these fugue states that he enters. "I'm a puppet on someone's strings." Though he does have a few theories about it when he is coherent enough to really think about it. He stood atop the Tower of Babel when it pierced the heavens and as a result he saw, everything, the entirety of creation and it broke him. Not even he can access most of the information he saw, but one thing is for certain, he saw something that terrified him beyond belief, he just doesn't know what that was.

EYES!?! - crazed, and sometimes glowing
HAIR!?! - Bald unless the host has hair
FACE!?! - who's ever body he is in
BODY!?! - who's ever body he is in
UNUSUAL!?! - He is a psionic demon with no real body of his own.
OVERAL!?! - Malkav is the man with a shaved head and a straight jacket babbling incoherently in an insane Asylum. He is the homeless man on the corner of the street wearing a tinfoil hat and raving about the moon eating his mind. He is the knife wielding maniac who just carved up a family of four "And who is currently standing right behind you!" He is anyone who has a crazed look in their eyes and a tenuous grasp on reality.
When it comes to what his host's wear, it is generally dark clothing, sometimes a dark suit and tie, sometimes drag or women's underwear. "I once possessed a clown." Sometimes he can be seen carrying a cane, one which he is not shy about using to club someone over the head with, sometimes with no clear reason. "Na-uh, that old lady clearly deserved it.His hair, when he has it, is often unkempt and ragged, like he doesn't care about his physical appearance, which in truth he doesn't. Every so often he dons a tin foil hat for some reason that is known only to him. "There is a guy, sitting at a computer....." Malkav also has an odd fascination with the internet and for the last couple of years, he has been actively trying to find a way to upload himself onto it, for completely unknown reasons.

FINALLY!?! - The story of Malkav is not an easy one to tell, he is batshit insane after all and not even he knows all the details of this story. "What's wrong with multiple choice origin stories?" The few things that can be verified and are not part of Malkav's madness are that he was a grandchild of Caine and a group of thirteen grandchildren that had incredible magical potential, a group that became known as 13. Malkav himself was a psychic gifted with prophetic visions which made him very valuable as an advisor to the young group. He was able to accurately determine when Caine would go on walkabout as a result of his curse and how long he would be gone, and on one of these occasions, during the so called Age of Babel, Caine vanished for nearly a century and 13 took control of Enoch.
When Caine returned he found his city was being run into the ground by a group of power mad, self styled gods, and could feel the rage coming from heaven. The Divine war and Diemon's wars were over and Caine could tell that the creator was about to wipe the slate clean. But this was not enough to stem his wrath and he brought each of these 13 grandchildren low and cursed each of them. Malkav and his twin sister Airika were both cursed with madness, though Malkav got the worst of it. Caine then turned his back on them and left to the flood. The Thirteen survived the flood, but not without great cost, they were scattered to the winds and only Malkav and Airika were able to remain together. Following the flood Malkav, who had been an architect as well as prophet in Enoch built a new city, Babel. With his great city built he took a new name, Nimrod and then took Airika "She was really beautiful" as his bride and queen, then he opened the doors to everyone with a grudge against the Creator. Malkav didn't learn from the lessons of Lucifer or of Diemon, and so sought to wage war on the heavens and to do so, he built a tower to breach the gates and storm heaven itself. It was really big!
He managed to do it, at least partly. He was on the top of the tower when it breached the walls of the world and he saw, everything, and God saw him. The rage was impossible to understand and Malkav's mind shattered far worse than what Caine had done to him and Babel was annihilated, leaving few survivors. Malkav was transformed into a demon and in the chaos, Airika was taken and transformed into a vampire. She fled the city and they would not see each other for centuries to come. After the destruction Malkav was found by two of his kin, other members of the 13, both transformed into demons by this point as well, the three eyed Saulot and the Reality bending Dracian. They travelled to the Valley of Sodom where the three of them met with Veddhisarimu and Ashur looked upon their cities of cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and the three Brothers built their own cities. This won't end well...
It seemed that Malkav's and the 13's fates were once again unkind and these five cities were destroyed by a rain of fire and brimstone, an act which apparently caused the death of Veddhisarimu. Malkav's body was broken during this event, but he managed to still live and made it to the land of the Israelites before eventually falling to his injuries. He was buried at the site where the city of Jerusalem would one day be built. But this was not the end of Malkav, and his mind had become separate from his body, so when his body collapsed his mind became free and Mania was born. Mania ran to the lands of the gods, Greece, seeking out his daughter who was among them. Though his shattered mind brought the worst of the madness with him and in time the Elders bound the power of the gods in the Ancient's Vault, including his daughter, mind body and soul.
It was after this when Mania would find Airika again, this time in the City of Rome, and with her help he was able to stabilize a bit and took on the title of Madness Incarnate as he infected more than one Roman Emperor with complete insanity as a joke. As Rome fell and his wife left him for the last time, he lost himself even more and fluttered about the worlds, leaving insanity in his wake, but never accomplishing much compared to his earlier days. Though his blood had long since mingled with the lands of his death and was at least partly responsible for the Massacre of Jerusalem in 1099 when the crusaders put the city to the sword killing everyone alive within the city. As the blood of the innocent mingled with his own blood and was enough to shake him out of his unending madness, or at least enough for him to recognize who he was once again. "Fun times."
After that he sought out Caine, seeking an end to his curse, but Caine refused, for there is no forgiveness in the heart of Caine. But Malkav was undeterred and joined a militant cult that Caine had created, known as the Brotherhood of Caine. Malkav has loyally served Caine in his brotherhood for centuries now, hoping that his grandfather will one day honor him by removing his curse and allowing him the mercy of sanity once again, and perhaps, death. Malkav also gave Caine a hint as to where what he sought was, The Land of the Dead. Caine would need to die to find his answer, and then return to use it.
