Scarlet Bane, let's start with what you know of her.

Scarlet is a blood red sword who bonded with Crimson, she can speak to him and those who touch her

[ The cursed weapons of Sol ]

In Skey you might have noticed there talking items, the first was the keys an item of order and its know that the keys were ones Kings of old...later it was revealed that Crimson sword can speak much like the keys do....that because Soledormir has his own items but his are of chaos...

Scarlet Bane is 1 of 8 remaining know cursed weapons of Soledormir.

All the cursed weapons used to be people, usually Sol own blood... his children... grandchildren, great grandchildren etc....

How each weapon is made is a little different for each child, along with their purpose he wanted them to be used for.

In Scarlet cases Soledormir took her remains after she was killed by Danieru and using his evil magic he made the blood red sword know as Scarlet Bane, Scarlet is technically dead, Sol just took the Echoes of her memories and place them in the sword, but he also twist those memories more making the sword even more psychotic and deniable Loyal.
(Sol pretty much took a recording of Scarlet and edit to suit what he wanted.)

Because Scarlet is no longer a living person her mind has broken down to were all she is, is a tool, evidence of this is how she talks, Scarlet tone is always hollow or dull when she was alive she had a charming voice and was very flirtatious.

Most of the cursed weapons are like this, even more Twisted versions of who they were but a few were not dead before Sol did this to them as how they are will be in a different story...

[ the power of blood ]

One of Scarlet's abilities is blood magic, when spilling something blood she steals their energy, this can effect different creatures differently, Some it not only drains them of life but of their magic, she can do two things with this, use it to power herself up more, make it to were her cut will be deeper or she be able to negate their defenses seen she now has a part of them or she can power up her host...making them stronger, faster and durable.

In killing something Scarlet gains the most power, after her kill, the next time she against something of that species she will be stronger against them, and if she keeps killing the same species she only get better and better at it.

This is why for a Nightmare, take even a small hit can be a major problem for them, with Crimson Scarlet has killed a lot of Nightmares...

The draw back is if Scarlet is up against something she hasn't tasted blood from yet, she be at square one against them but with new blood her hungry to kill them will be greater.

Scarlet is the most powerful in the hands of her host but she can do things on her own if she has to.

One of the things Scarlet can do is turn to blood, she can travel this way on her own and can even attack someone, her touch can drain hurt and the longer she touching them she starts draining their life, this works faster if she tastes that persons blood before or someone of that species.

[ the blood addiction ]

Other abilitie Scarlet has is her manipulation, to those who touch her she can speak to them but to some its more then that, ones Scarlet is blood bound to someone she has access to there mind and will try to manipulate them.
Scarlet was a Succubus Vampiric Nethersglade, she had the power to persuade males to do her bidding, she always preferred male host because she could more easily manipulate them, making them believe they were in power but in reality she was the one pulling the strings getting them to do what she wanted.
Her host usually never caught on because how they would come across her would be a setup, they would be so broken when they found her that she would promise to them what they wanted to hear and form the bound and after that her host would get addicted to the power she give them, making them even more under her control... (Crim never had a chance )

Female on the other hand have a resistance to her manipulation, but that why Scarlet is hostile to females and doesn't want her host around them, she doesn't like competition and wants full control of her host

[ the blood Sapphire and his cravings for Revenge]

Scarlet most recent host is Crimson.

Soledormir had special plans for Crim and Void had his own... making the boy life a chaotic mess full of misery, frustration and confusion... Judas try his best to help the boy but he himself was a puppet of Sol and at times made things worse for Crim, but no matter how bad it got as long as Omen was around Crim was able to keep his humanity, that was until Void made Omen disappear without saying a word and Voids Disgaea shades lock Crim up in his room with only the voices in his head as company, it didn't take long for Crim to snap and go nuts.

We'll Omen was away, Crimson took a nosedive for the worst, he gave into his darker side and was on a mission to kill all Nightmares and Malices head was his driving force, the boy only got worse when he went to the dark worlds with no light to better support his bracelet with... Crimson was insane and lost, desperate for any help in achieving his goal.

Crimson was in bad shape after a battle against Nightmares, he stumbled across an underground ruin were Scarlet was waiting for him.... she told him she could give him the power he needed to destroy Malice and all he ever wish to, but he needed to form a blood pack with her and her power could be his, to test Crimson Scarlet gave the boy tasks he had to do to gather certain items for the ritual, unknown to Crim each one of these items would be guarded by monsters meant to test him, to see how well Judas really trained him.

After Gathering the items Crimson returned to Scarlet and perform the ritual, unknown to him the items were not really necessary, it was just a test to see if he survive and how much influence Scarlet had over the boy before they were even bound.

Once the blood pack was made Scarlet took up being Crimson new teacher, he made the Ruins he found her in his base of operations and practiced dark Magic, taking what he learned from Omen and applying it to what Scarlet taught him, in a short about of time Crimson became a dangerous creature who was called the blood Sapphire.

Scarlet encouraged and delighted in Crimson dive for Revenge, dark worlds he hunted he leave his signature, crystallized Nightmare Corpses...the place he made his Basecamp would be littered with his trophies, serving both as his pride and a warning sign.

But what is most know in the dark worlds is the ' field of Silent screams'...a place in the shadows realm that Crimson displays a Nightmare corpse for every hundred he killed...at first he placed the first Nightmare he kill with Scarlet there... then he placed another after the first 10, he counted to go up in numbers the stronger he got and his display Nightmare went from being omegas to higher up the line, until all he placed in the field was Alphas... a chilling message to all Nightmares, that the blood Sapphire was still on the hunt and to a Nightmare seen the bodies of Nightmares unnerving, because Nightmare bodies begin to melt after they are killed so seen a Nightmare corpse is unnatural for them.

In the flashy back with Crim, it showed just how far he really got, he didn't know who or what he was nor did he care as long as he was killing Nightmares, he walk around without his helmet on knowing the toxicity of a dark world but he act like it didn't bother him, like he was a creature of that world, Crimson got to the point of even kidnapping and dragging people to dark worlds and using then as bait, Scarlet had groomed Crimson into been a monster but he hadn't passed his last test...to ether kill an innocent life willingly or to take off his bracelets....

It's why in Crim flash back the first introductory of how bad Crim was in the dark world was, was him talking to himself on killing his prisoner, but Crim wasn't actually talking to himself, Scarlet was trying to coax him to take that final step to ether kill someone who was innocent or take off his bracelets, to fully give into the darkness in him, at that time Crim still had a little spark in him, a little bit of humanity left that told him not to do it but it was fading....if Void didn't let Judas go find Crimson when he did, it wouldn't have been much longer before Crimson stepped off that edge and gave in to Scarlet wish and become the monster she wanted him to be....But that didn't happen

[ the one who got away]

In Crimson backstory it was pretty obvious that Judas and Scarlet had History...

That because they did, Judas has actually seen or used 10 different Cursed weapons of Soledormir, he even had help destroy one before...but that a story for a different time.
Judas is pretty much a Custom made toy for Soledormir, everything about him from his powers to even his looks Sol planned out for a reason.

Judas entire existence was designed to be a mockery, insult, Domination, slander to the Vaseterm Race but not only to them but to Azamuku and even farther back, back to the 4 moon deity...but your Probably wondering what does this have to do with scarlet? Let me step back a bit...

Throughout the centuries Soledormir has had kids, lots of kids but only a handful he would call his favorites and Scarlet Bane was one of them.
Within the timeline I group Soledormir children into two groups, those who were born in Azamuku time and those who were after his disownment and him being rename Void.

Scarlet Bane was in the first group... she was one of four children at that time who played a very important role in both the Vaseterms and Dreamers timeline, but not just there's but many other species including the Paradise Phoenix and Armadolem ( Danny species) and many more

[ the red witch]

In the time of her life Scarlet was Soledormir favorite daughter, she was cunning, Devious, manipulative and brutal, she had many of the traits Soledormir favorite, if it wasn't for her being female Sol would have Considered Scarlet as a potential successor however she was female so he did not, but that didn't mean the Chaos king didn't favor Scarlet and pampered her.

Scarlet was daddy little girl, she adored and worshiped him and Soledormir gave her many things.

But she wasn't the only child of Soledormir at that time, Azamuku Soledormir oldest child did not like Computation and would see to his sister death but before he did that the two had a half-blood Vaseterm Sibling...

Black star was the nickname of Soledormirs first Vaseterm child, he was curly, cunning and very powerful and was picked to be Soledormirs successor at that time.

Scarlet adored her half brother Black star and together they did many evil things, she followed him in his Conquest to become ruler of the Vaseterm people, it was a very bloody age...But Black star would never be king, Azamuku seen to that...

The two half brothers hated each other, Black star had a gift in getting under Azamuku Skin, out of the siblings Black star was Azamuku greatest rival, until Black star was born Azamuku was the most powerful and intelligent but now there some someone who Threaten to suppress him.

Black star being half Vaseterm could see vision, his site was vast, he could not only see the past but present and future and Delighted in rubbing it in Azamuku face.

Azamuku only could look into the past and Despised his brother in ever way, the two would get into Fights, they were mostly Refine verbal confrontations as it was more a battle of wits but ever once in a while one of them would hit a Nerve and the two would get into a physical fight.

Sol found it amusing with his children and didn't get to involved with their Conflicts, to him it was a game of Survival of the fittest, a game Azamuku Perfected...

Azamuku planned out his brother end and he did it in a way it didn't point that he was Responsible...

He knew things others didn't, Except his Father, he set up a young woman who Titled was 'the Silver Spear'...in order to save her people she killed Black star but in doing so, she really doom her people...
The Events of what happened Created a Cataclysm so big it Fractured the realms and would change them forever...Azamuku then wiped what happened from History, only those who were there know what took place, the deals that were made and the price that was paid... but the Sheer Devastation of events can even be seen in Current day Skey but the truth of what that was has been forgotten to time....

Scarlet was one who was there and was part of the bloodshed, she had her Suspicions about Azamuku Involvement in Black star death but he covered his tracks so well she never could pin him for it and Soledormir never stepped in but that because he got exactly what he wanted... Entertainment at the cost of others lives...

Scarlet and Azamuku had a so, so Relationship after that, she never fully trusted her Brother but it still didn't save her.

Azamuku made a deal to Erase Evidence of what happened in the dreadful event and Scarlet was one and witnesses... he rig up her undoing and was more then pleased to do so for many reasons, she was one of Soledormir favorite and Black star was her favorite sibling.

How Azamuku went about it was, Scarlet had a bloodlust, she love battle and would often go to war for her father.

Scarlet had an overflowing Confident in battle, she would often go to war with only a small handful of dark creatures and yet she win ever war she Waged... that was because Scarlet was a Succubus vampiric Nethersglade and she was the daughter of Soledormir...

Her power over males was Inescapable and what are most Armies made of? Males... Scarlet would turn Brother against brother, father against son and husbands against his own family, armies who stood against Soledormirs would be bewitch by her spell and to as she said, they would even die for her.

Scarlet was sent to a world to Conquereth for Soledormir and went into battle like she always did, full of Confidence, it didn't take long for the world to be at its breaking point, most of the Armadolem people were hers or dead, there as only a handful left, most were Women and even children fighting for their lives.

The Armadolem people were at their last battle and hope was low, the red witch had power Beyond Armadolem people and everyone believed this battle would be there worlds last...but something unexpected happened... Amongst the chaos an unlikely hero would be made, a farmer boy named Danieru

In the chaos of the battlefield Danieru just like the other Survivors were fighting for their lives, in the heart of the battlefield the farm boy took a hammer and crushed Scarlet with it...Scarlet was taken by complete Surprise, she never expected that a male who was not one of her brothers could resist her spell, so she never imagined a weak little farm boy would be the one to kill her.

The biggest thing was Danieru didn't even realize what he did, he just thought Scarlet was one of the monster attacking his world so he smack her like one.

Soledormir was a bit upset but he an Opportunist, he took Danieru and Forced him to become a forsaken Lord know as Rage, he then made Rage Destroy the rest of his world

But that wasn't all what Sol did, he took the Remains of Scarlet and just like with Black star he repurchase them...for Scarlet he made the blood sword named Scarlet Bane

Soledormir has used Scarlet Bane Throughout the centuries for many different different things but mostly he uses her for brainwashing people...

Sol takes the most pleasure in breaking people will and eating their hope...he a master at setting things up so a person becomes a monster by their own choices...

Evidence of this can be seen in Crimson and just how messed up that boy is because of Scarlet Influence but he not her only victim, Scarlet been around for a long time and has hand many so called master but her true master will always be Soledormir

Now going back to Judas.

If you look back in Skey Omen and Hunter/Void Relationship has always been odd...

Since their 1st interactions Void Treated Omen neutral but if you really look there's an underlying of annoyance, it could have Easily be mistaken has a Omen being a clown and void is a much more serious person and Omen Child this nature just annoys him but its much deeper than that...Void was the first to call Omen his real name in Skey and he Usually always referred to him by 2 ways Judas or master, and if you look closely how Void spoke and Treated Omen was a little different on what he called him.

When calling Omen master, Void talking to Killy he Typically speaks to Killy Professional but in a way like scolding a child, Void is Forced to look after Omen because of Killy, he hates Killy because Sol claims that he his Heir to the throne and it's insulting to Void because Killy is a Dumb brute but he bound do what Soledormir wants him to do and that is look after Killy...it the Ultimate worst baby sitting job and Void just can't quite it.

But if you look back, when Void speak to Judas, he Typically is meaner to him, especially if Killy is sleeping...Void has done some down right Savage things to Judas and if you look it's not because of Killy, it's because Void Despises Judas...

When Soledormir put in motion the dark star project, it was intended Insult and slander to many of Soledormir adversary... the name dark star is a twist of black star, Judas Existence was meant to be an abomination, A monument to just how dark and evil Soledormir really is, that when the Chaos king has a grudge against something he takes Revenge to a unimaginable level.

To the Vaseterm it may not been a Black star who destroyed them but it was a Dark star...

To the silver moons, Soledormir Spit in their faces with the creation of Judas, he was a Mockery of what happened long go and a Monument to a sin Soledormir committed.

To Void, Judas Was a dagger forge to Stab Azamuku with, that even after everything Azamuku did, Judas is a reminder of Black star who he try to erase and Killy is just Soledormir Twisting that dagger deeper into Void.

But Judas doesn't fully know this, he knows more history then most but this is something he does not, he doesn't know Black star, he doesn't know the deals that were made, he doesn't know the real reason why Void hates him so much and why Soledormir has invested so much into making Judas, that it far deeper than then just him being a vessel for Killy

But this is why Scarlet has History with Judas.

When Soledormir gave Scarlet to Judas, the blood sword didn't see Judas, she seen her brother Black star and treated Judas like him...it really creep Judas out.

Judas didn't understand why Scarlet would refer to him With a different name, why she talk about things he didn't know about but act like he should know. The outcast didn't like Scarlet at all, he knew she was nuts and evil and she tried to get Judas to do evil things and make comments about just like the good old days, Judas had no idea what she was taking about, he never knew Scarlet before and never seen her before she died, it just made him uncomfortable around her and the only thing he could think of was she must have been talking about Killy.

Scarlet did like Killy, she love that he was Barbaric and left a Trail of blood and death, she thought they make the prefer team but Killy's Fighting style was more on his own brutality then using a weapon, even when Killy had his own body he never like using weapons and that frustrated Scarlet.
When Soledormirs gave Judas Scarlet, he was actually Experimenting with them, he enjoyed playing games with Judas, it was Entertaining Figuring out new ways break or Twist him and Scarlet was one of those Experience.

She tried to brainwash Judas and make him into Black star but it didn't work. Though Judas did form a blood bond with Scarlet it didn't last, there something about Judas that keep him from staying bonded to one of Soledormir curse weapons, the bond where off like it never happened but that wasn't what upset Scarlet so much, Judas was also immune to Succubus powers, this was what anger her the most.

Judas wasn't cooperating wasn't with her, he look similar and share similar traits of Black star but he wasn't him and wasn't willing doing what she wanted to become like Black star, and she wasn't able to control him and make him like Black star. Judas got to a point he had enough, he Rejected and abandoned Scarlet, this Infuriated her.

Soledormir on the other hand had quite the opposite reaction, he leader a lot, and found what happened to be very Entertaining, he Discovered things about Judas he wasn't expecting.

Judas was bred to listen and obey others and it did that quit well, but with Scarlet Judas didn't treat her like a handler, he didn't listen to her. This Fascinated Soledormir, Judas should have been a puppet to Scarlet and that she would have crafted Judas into whatever she please but that didn't happen, he had a Natural resistance to her and the other curse weapons.

Void had a part to play in why Judas didn't Exactly come out how he was supposed to, Void had his hands in the dark star project and had a feeling what his father was up to, Void sabotaged the project that led to more deaths, and led to Judas ending up with some of his Crippling handicaps and locks but Sol Actually expected Void to do that, it why he set up his own Countermeasures against Void with Judas.

Judas Since the beginning has been between a rock and a hard spot but that rock and hard spot is Soledormir and Void and he can't do much about it.

Even though Void Tampered with the dark star project there something else that got Sol Curious about Judas and it wasn't anything Void did.

It was Judas Innocent nature, despite everything stack against him Judas had a strong sense of good, it Fascinated the Soledormir a long with Judas ability to Resist his curse weapons.

It didn't take long for Soledormir to understand why Judas could not bound with his weapons and it only game Sol more of a reason to bully and hurt him and because of that Judas has learned to fear or not like things about himself like his black hair and water.

There is still more about this with Judas but that for Another time.

Revolving closer to recent event in Skey.

This is why in Crimson backstory Judas Freaked out when he found out Crimson had made a blood pack with Scarlet, He knows all to well just how messed up and crazy she is and that she has the power to control males.

Scarlet was not happy with Judas, she hated him for what happened between them and Deliberately trying to trun Crimson against Judas to get back at him, she knew Judas love the boy and cared about him like a son so she work to destroy that Relationship and almost succeeded.

Scarlet did dive Crimson to the edge of his sanity, by time Judas found him the boy was falling over the edge but he caught him just in time.

The blood sword was furious that her plans failed and it was by Judas but she couldn't do anything against the outcast, she had no power over him

Even though Judas saved Crimson, he wasn't allowed to interfere with boy bound to Scarlet but he was able keep the blood sword under control. As long as the outcast was around Scarlet watch herself and Crimson got a little better.

Scarlet keep quiet, only helping Crimson when he asked and she waited, she waited until the time was right to Strike. when Judas can not come to save the day so she can drag the prince of red back into the shadows were the darkness will consume all light...
