Terin was the second general Chaotic Blue created [The order being: Syker, Terin, Shakar, Kev and Xander]. Like all of her generals, Terin is a bishonen. Each of her generals is a different stereotype of masculinity - Terin is her "beefcake" model. He is shorter than the other generals, and well-muscled.

Terin's favorite snack as a Mazoku (Demon) is crushed hope and of course, like all of Chaotic Blue's, he has a love of blood. He is not quite as intelligent as Syker, not as charming as Shakar or Xander, and has none of the boyishness of Kev; his strong point is his strength of character.

Terin had had a long running working relationship with the Darksky family, who were notorious criminals. There was, however, one "white sheep" in the group: Sira Darksky, the family patriarch's niece. She became a priestess at a temple far away from her family's seat of power.

Determined to elimnate this blot on an otherwise sterling name, Terin tracked down the priestess. Unable to enter the shrine grounds, he waited outside for her, in human form. His plan was to lure her away from her center of power and kill her...preferably slowly.

The two walked some length away from the temple, lost in simple human conversation. So lost, in fact, that Terin forgot his plan. By the time he remembered it, they were having dinner; he resolved to complete his business after they left the restaurant so that he could see to his OWN sort of meal.

That night, he dropped her off safely at her apartment, promising to see her tomorrow, walking home whistling a favorite tune. He blinked when he recalled his mission. He flew back to her house, but her home had many religious relics about it, and he couldn't enter. Disgruntled and upset with himself, he flittered away home.

But he kept his date with her the next day. And the day after that. Before long, Terin found himself utterly in love with Sira. Everywhere else he went, he brought pain, death, and destruction. And that was good - he had no problems with that. But to Sira he brought only happiness and peace. It churned his stomach, it drained his power, but he loved being with her. He loved her long sable tresses and her pretty smile; he loved the way she laughed and the way those rich brown eyes twinkled when she was happy.

He couldn't destroy her. She would die on her own soon anyway - soon for a Mazoku, who was immortal. But all of the lovey-doveyness was destroying him; he always left her ravenously hungry, and would feed vengefully upon whoever crossed his path. Because of this, it soon became known that a demon was stalking the city. Sira, as a priestess, was tapped along with other local religious authorities to help find this demon, and rid the world of its darkness.

Terin wisely laid low and the case was dropped. But soon it became too much to go to other parts of the world to feed; he simply didn't have the energy after a session of holding hands and walking in the sunlight with Sira. He took greater care this time, but still the news of the demon leaked out and the case was reopened.

Soon, the sadly inevitable happened - Sira, working on the case, discovered Terin in the act, as it were. They stared at each other in shock and heightening fear, before she turn and ran off. He wanted to follow her, but had the sinking feeling that nothing he could say would make any difference.

Unbeknownst to him, Sira tracked him to his earthly lair that night. The next morning, as he awoke, Sira stood there, her eyes fire and angry, wounded betrayal radiating from her. She imprisoned him under the most potent of religious relics - several, in fact - and left him.

Sira lived her life, never married, and died, as all humans do. She went to the Dwelling of the Souls in the Sea of Chaos, and has remained there ever since.

Terin was imprisoned for several centuries before finally being freed by a human explorer (only a human could break the seals). Now free, Terin has returned to serving his Lady Mistress, but he still loves Sira. Currently he is working to regain the strength lost during his confinement.
