Okey wasn't expecting to be one of the winners of AJthewolf's Train Overlord contest.
I only made the previous entry because I didn't think he would be used and I didn't want to waste it.
So here's my entry for the contest:
Esteban, The Train Overlord of six rings.
True name: Friedrich Eisenbahn
Birth place: Germany, outskirts of Berlin
Sins: Wrath with a pinch of Pride
Punishment: Lucifer made him part centipede (which he's afraid of), made his mustache antenna constantly smoke and has a hard time drinking anything with his split lower jaw.
A born as the only child of a track worker in the year of 1846 Germany, he spent most of his childhood working in harsh conditions around railways with his father. Although his father was a kind man he couldn't stop the growing hatred, frustration and anger for the railway higher-ups, like the Foremen who supervised them. Until one day at the age of 25 in a heated argument with the Foremen over the extended work hours, he snapped and killed the Foremen. One of his coworkers and friend saw what he did and because he was afraid for his friend and because he also hated the Foremen, he helped him to cover the incident up as an accident. But as for Esteban this experience awoken something foul in his heart, he liked releasing his anger on those he hated, it felt like a euphoric release. He hated bottling up his anger, frustration and hate, he wanted to do the same to the other higher-ups, but he was aware that he have to be more cherful. No one can see him do that next time. So for 7 years he became known as Railway Basher and secretly was killed 9 lower higher-ups during the night, while keeping up a facade of a calm, friendly, hardworking man during the day. And during that time he got promoted to a train conductor. But one day at the age of 35 some policemen with his friend in attendance came to arrested him for murder of the hated Foremen. Apparently his friend got suspicious and followed him to one of the murders and saw him murder a supervisor. He kept that a secret for a few years out of fear, but in the end the guilt caused him to go and confess what happened to the police. In anger of his friends betrayal, Esteban tried to kill his old friend just to end up being shot by the policemen to death.
His Hell name came from sinners mispronouncing his last name. Overtime he came to like it.
In Hell, as a one of the sinners who actually knew how to build, maintain and even run a railway. He quickly achieved the status of Overlord.
As an Overlord he runs Hells railway with efficiency and a iron fist.
Funnily enough he gives his railway worker like track workers, engineers a lot more slak. He is very harsh with his conductors and station staff and absolutely abusive to his managerial staff.
But if any of them does something to anger him, he will beat them until they are a mutilated beyond recognition.
Dose he regret what he's done when he was alive?
Absolutely not! If anything he regrets not managing to kill his old friend!
For powers Esteban produces, spit or inject through his mendibals a extremely painful venom (like gympie-gympie plant painful but worse) that he can ignite when in contact with air as his abilities.
As AJ added in the Train Overlord Video: He had a rivalry with the Conductor where he got tortured by him to make a contract. In the end he managed to outlast him the Conductor went animalistic from his true form and Esteban got rescued by Krober Croox. This whole event caused him to have a cough, impaired vision and the gentle voice of a hundred year old chain smoker who started smoking at the age of 10.
As how he feel about the other content winners... I'll put it in short:
- The Railway Tyrant: Esteban hates him because he reminds him of hi old bosses and because they are rivals. But he does have a smidgen of respect for his efficency.
- Kober Croox: Hates his personality, but barley tolerates him because he's good at his job.
- The Conductor: Hates him for the torture, but also weirdly respects him (both killed people they hated). Had a portrait of him made as a trophy.
- Timeni: Wishes he got a contact with her first. He likes and respect her for her genius and hard work.
- William: He actually really likes and respects him for his hard working attitude despite his missing arm and for his intelligence.
- Antrain: Respects her work ethic but doesn't have much contact since she works for the Railway Tyrant.
