Origin[]
Charming Gold was born as the only son of the king and queen of the Peacock Tribe. However he is born with a hideous face which brought shame onto his parents. When his mother asked her husband what they should do with his face, the king stated that it is a curse from the gods and that he'll look hideous for the rest of his life. Charming Gold had lived a miserable life being bullied by the other kids. While he was alone in the forest crying in misery, a bully came up to him and mocked him by calling him a monster. This made Charming Gold snap and in a fit of rage, he absorbed the bully's energy, killing him instantly and causing his body to wither.
Charming Gold then began absorbing the energy of others, which completely altered his appearance as well as his face, making him have a charming and handsome look. He continued to absorb more energy in order to keep his beauty intact, which also increased his life span, which is evidenced by the fact that he has lived for thousands of years.
