Backstory[]
Diabolus Ignis Lengua spawned from the flames of hell in the year 956 BC, working as a scribe in the depths of hell. It was something he was good at since he was made: writing and cataloging. After a hundred or so years he found himself going to the overworld, using his new found freedom to explore the world. He wasn't sure what he was released for, but he knew the Devil had something to do with it. Though he had questions about why he was sent to the surface, he merely put it to the back of his mind in light of what he would do with his freedom: Learning. Ever since he was put on the job of Scribe, he had a passion for learning. It was why he never complained about his work, and was why he would explore the world...and so he did.
Diabolous took on many names as he explored the world, using his powers and skills to go where no normal man could go. As he lived on the surface with people he would move from place to place, learning what he could from what was left of ancient civilization. If he could interact with the people, he did so and would mold into their society. Over the 2000 years he stayed on the move, Diabolus found ruins of ancient Aztecs learning what he could of the language from the structures left, as well as other deceased cultures. He visited every country across the globe from South America to Japan to Early Germany to the original 13 colonies. He continued to Circle the globe, taking notes of the cultures and societies as he stayed for no more than a year in each place. Wherever he went he learned the language, learning throughout the year he stayed and if he didn't learn it all would return back to continue the lessons. He made special trips to any museums or universities that knew of any ancient civilizations that he didn't know or weren't around.
Even with Diabolus preoccupied with his round the world trip, he was shocked when the worlds of the supernatural and arcane began to join society. He foresaw the coming problem, but looked to the brighter side as a learning experience. He studied what he could until the year 2056, when he stopped in Osaka Japan. He had learned every language known to man, and then some. He had the feeling of accomplishment, but still yearned to learn as well as something else. Diabolus had all that knowledge but nothing to do with it.
As he wandered the typical streets of Osaka, he stumbled apon a group of students form one of the surrounding schools. He approached them and found that they couldn't understand the signs of the shop they were looking at. Speaking up, he helped them by translating the words. They thanked him and out of curiosity the greater demon asked where they attended. They responded with Osaka Gakuin, and after a few more questions of where the school was, Diabolus was on his way to the school.
It was their that the greater demon found himself applying for a job at the school, being accepted off the bat to fill the position of Foreign languages teacher. Now it's the year 2142 and after 86 years of teaching he continues to teach at the school. In his time their he formed the debate club as well as increased the number of languages the students could learn, and still continues to teach.
Trivia[]
- Professor Ignis's name is rather complex in the translating. diabolus is Latin for "devil", Ignis is Latin for "fire", and lengua is a variation of lingua which is Latin for "tongue".
- Even the professor isn't sure where he picked up his flamboyant personality. If you ask him about it he'll make a joke about it being from the fire he was born from, or his time in france.
