Jonathan Alicante

"Descensus Averno facilis est (The descent into Hell is easy)"

- The Aeneid

Jonathan Alicante, also known as Jonathan the Shadowhunter, is one of the most famous figures in supernatural history, famed for being the first Shadowhunter to ever be created, as well as the Queen of Diamonds within the Seraph Raziel's Brave Saints.

He is the "ancestor" of all Shadowhunters, as well as the original ruler of Idris - the pocket-dimension inhabitted by the Shadowhunters. He is the original guardian of the Mortal Instruments, cosists of the Mortal Cup, the Mortal Sword, and the Mortal Mirror. He is also the only person other than King Charlemagne to be able to wield the Holy Sword Joyeuse, which had since became his main weapon.

A fact unknown to many is that he was a former wielder of the Longinus Sacred Gear Sephiroth Graal, which he had used to create the Mortal Instruments with the knowledge given by Raziel and his siblings' assistance. Because of his overall skill with the Holy Grail, he was deemed the greatest wielder of said Longinus by many mythological figures such as Azazel and Mephisto Pheles.

He is the younger brother of Abigail Alicante and the oath-brother of David Gramarye, thus making him the adopted uncle of Sabrina Spellman. Via his sister's marriage with Christine de Vouthon, he became the uncle of Joseph de Vouthon. He is also the ancestor of Penelope Lightwood (now Natsume Shidou), and by extension, her daughter - Irina.

Appearance
Jonathan has the appearance of a handsome young man, with black hair in several unevenly-cut bangs and clear-blue eyes. His lean and muscular body is covered in numerous invisible Shadowhunter runes that only appear when he utilizes his angelic power.

He wears the Fifth Heaven's standard male uniform, consisting of a white coat with aqua-colored geometrical designs and dark-blue lines, a dark-grey vest with a grey dress shirt underneath, and black slacks. He also wears black dress shoes and a black-colored tie.

As an Angel, he possesses a total of five white-feathered wings, with the wingspan of approximately 11-feet. He also has a crimson-colored crown with a capital "Q" marking on his left shoulder - a symbol for his status as Raziel's Queen of Hearts.

Personality
Jonathan was first described by Irina to be a person with an eternal stern countenance and hard-bitten demeanor. He often presents himself with an unyielding stoic impression with others, hardly ever showing signs of bewilderment or enthusiasm on his face. If he wants to, he could be incredibly polite and well-mannered and could be very charming toward everyone he meets, but choose not to due to being overall uncaring toward society's image of him.

Despite this cold and distant appearance of his, in actuality, he is a very caring person, often taking in orphan spirits within the Third Heaven under his wings and became a father figure toward them, to the point where most children on the Third Heaven developed the habbit of calling him "Papa". He is overly protective of those close to him and would willingly sacrifice himself to protect them - a reckless habit that have drawn the irks of his King, sister, and parapatai countless times.

Despite being one of the most notorious Shadowhunters in the moonlit history, he lacks the prejudice and arrogant view many Shadowhunters often have on both the supernatural and the mundane alike, most likely due to the fact he was the original one and thus doesn't have such judgemental view the later generations have. From centuries-worth of experience, he fully understand that the world isn't only a black-and-white like most Shadowhunters, Hunters, and Exorcists often have, knowing well that often the holiest men would often be much crueler than the average Devils, as well as how the sinful Devils would still often be much more innocent than the so-called "children of God".

Because of this, he is often gladly give out a helping hand toward all supernatural beings that require his help, as demonstrated by the fact both Venelana Gremory and Zekion Sitri - the matriarch of the Gremory Clan and the patriarch of the Sitri Clan respectively - were saved by him as young children and have been in-debt to him since then. Another example for this was the circumstances around his death, as he had sacrificed himself to protect a group of young Devils, including the young Falbium Glasya-Labolas and Serafall Sitri.

The only times Jonathan had showed any feeling of disgust on his face was when another Angel asked him about his alleged "incestuous love affair" between him and his sister, which resulted in the destruction of the entire Northern Research Wing and said Angel hospitalized for over a decade and even developed a fear of him.

Equipment
Joyeuse : Also known as the Holy Knight Emperor Sword, this is the famous Holy Sword originally wielded by King Charlemagne and one of Jonathan's main weapon. It appears as an ornately-decorated sword that radiates an immense holy aura. It possesses all the abilities wielded by the Holy Swords of the Paladins of Charlemagne, in addition to being able to control the mind of those wielding them. It is said to be an "upgraded version" of Caliburn.
 * Aura Projection: The power of Roland's Holy Sword Durandal, it allows Joyeuse to generate powerful aura that changes its properties based on the wielder's desire, capable of shifting from defensive to offensive properties in mere seconds.
 * Purification: The power of Oliver's Holy Sword Hauteclere, it allows Joyeuse to generate a powerful cloak of pure holy aura that purify anything and everything it touches, cleanse the taint of Demons and demonic creatures instantly. This purification aura is powerful enough to permanently harm a High-class Demon or a Satan-class Devil with a single slash, as well as annihilating Demons and Devils beneath that level of power.
 * Illusions: The power of Astolfo's unnamed Holy Sword, it allows Joyeuse to conjure numerous powerful illusions, greater than the Excalibur Nightmare before its upgrade. According to Azazel, while Astolfo's original Holy Sword was destroyed shortly after its owner's death, based on the illusionist power demonstrated by Joyeuse, the original could be considered an A-ranked Holy Sword, on par with Durandal and the Excalibur Fragments before their upgrade.

Metal-worker : Also known as the Maiden of the Underground Blade, this is a long-barreled desgined specifically for Jonathan. It is created using high-quality Enochian metals, engraved with numerous Enochian magickal hieroglyphs, thus making it an Enochian artifact of immense destructive power. It could fire decomposing needle-size holes that target his opponents' nerves and blood vessels to incapacitate and cause severe pain.

Sorcerer : Also known as the Brother of the Arcane, this is a large-caliber rifle designed specifically for Jonathan. It is created using high-quality Enochian metals, engraved with numerous Enochian magickal hieroglyphs, thus making it an Enochian artifact of immense destructive power. According to Abigail, it could fire explosive shots that would make napalm bombs look like firecrackers.

Chalice Sophia : Jonathan's Incarnation Gear, based on his former Longinus. There isn't much public information about it, other than the fact it contains the "secrets of life and existence" and the "Authority over all living beings".

Formerly
Sephiroth Graal : Jonathan's original Longinus. It has the ability to make contact with the principal of life, allowing him to take in the mind and concept of the dead, the living, and various other things. With the Holy Grail, he was able to genetically modified him, his sister and parapatai, and many others into the first Artificial Nephilims. i.e. the first Shadowhunters. He was considered the greatest wielder of the Sacred Gear, being able to unlock many of its numerous features and abilities, granting his successors more knowledge about their new Longinus and how to control it. According to Azazel, Jonathan himself was an anomality since he was the only known wielder of the Grail not being affected by the Longinus' negative effects.

Mortal Instruments : Jonathan is the original wielder of the Mortal Instruments, which he crafted with the assistance of his sister and his parapatai using the angelic knowledge given to them by Raziel. Following their deaths, these artifacts were passed down to the Clave and became the holiest of artifacts for the Shadowhunters.
 * Mortal Sword : Also known as the Sword of Truth, this is a Pseudo-Enochian sword forged out of adamas that would compel any Shadowhunter to tell the truth and only the truth, as well as summon forth hordes of low-level angelic beasts to do the wielders' bidding.
 * Mortal Cup : Also known as the Grail of Ascension, this is a Pseudo-Enochian artifact carved out of adamas created based on the genetically-mutating ability of the Sephiroth Graal. It has the ability to turn the few selective Humans into Shadowhunters via altering their DNA. However, there is a very high chance of failure and the human drinking it turned into a Forsaken due to their body unable to receive the angelic power from the Cup.

Harming, Trapping, or Misleading

 * Witchcraft: As a type of Heretic Magic created by the infamous Empress of Hell Lilith, it is one of the few types of magic capable of bypassing an Angel's absurdly high natural magic resistance.
 * Enochian Magick: Enochian Magick spells, rites, and rituals are extremely effective against Angels.
 * Ohr: As a Lesser Angel, Jonathan is highly sensitive toward Ohr - the immensely powerful angelic light produced by the Pure Angels, used by them to perform Enochian Magick instead of using their life-force. Being in close contact with Ohr for a long amount of time would severely weaken him.
 * Ahra: Due to Ahra being the demonic counterpart of Ohr, it could be persumed that the same thing applies to this ancient form of demonic energy.
 * Powerful Supernatural Weapon: Extremely powerful supernatural weapons could be used to harm Jonathan.

Killing

 * Divine Weapon: As the Divine Weapons were crafted and used by the gods using Divine Metals such as Celestial Bronze or Imperial Gold, in addition to carrying with them a portion of their wielder's divinity, thus allowing them to deal extra damage onto those of divine nature such as the Angels.
 * Anath: As the ultimate long-ranged weapon, created by the last gods of the Canaanite Mythology using the body of the Hunting Goddess Anath and all of their remaining divinity, it possesses the power to kill Angels and angelic beings, including Jonathan.
 * Enochian/Faustian Weapon: Weapons created from either Enochian or Faustian metals could kill Jonathan.
 * Original Longinus: As the thirteen Original Longinus are some of the greatest Enochian Artifacts to ever be created in the Heavenly Forges, crafted from the finest of Enochian metals and threads of God's divine light, they possess immense power that could easily be used to kill Angels, Devils, Demons, Gods and Buddhas alike.
 * Higher or Equal Beings: Beings as strong as, or more powerful than Jonathan could defeat him.
