Desert Vortex

Desert Vortex is a member of the Phantom Regiment.

Vortex is an oblivious former god brought to our world by VIPER against his will. His current rank in the Phantom Regiment is Elder.

APPEARANCE
Vortex is an android with no human characteristics visible, due to the short budget of VIPER at the time. He has spikes and fangs all over his body and the VIPER symbol on his waist. He has a robotic head with red glowing eyes and a spiked halo floating on top. His body also has tiger stripes drawn in it, and a vortex symbol on his chest.

BACKSTORY
Everything began with VIPER and their experiments with nature and other worlds. They discovered ancient artifacts and unknown languages all over the world that no one could understand. It was all so intriguing for them, so they continued to research it. Years later they already had bases at Millenium City, Southwest Desert, Canada, Monster Island, Lemuria and Vibora Bay. Each base had the same purpose:  To find the bronze statues. These statues represented the gods from another world, and VIPER believed that with the right spell, they could bring them to our world. It was at the year of 2017 that their plan came to fruition. They made android bodies for the gods to have a physical form, so they wouldn't disappear and began the preparations for the spell. Each place had a different god that represented an animal. Millenium City - Bat, Desert - Snake, Canada - Hawk, Monster Island - Dinosaur, Lemuria - Shark, Vibora Bay - Frog. The plan was a complete success, but VIPER couldn't control all of them, and some of the gods escaped. One of them is Desert Vortex, the Snake. Now he wants to destroy VIPER, for taking his home away from him and putting him on a metallic body.

Vortex had a son one day some time before joining the Phantom Regiment, he named the son "Typhoon" because of his wind manipulation powers.

PERSONALITY
Vortex is a caring and responsible guy, but can have a very short temper sometimes. He's also pretty oblivious and can make a conversation awkward. Another one of his traits is falling in love with anyone and claiming them for him, this doesn't end well of course.
