Name: Au'Nvratyis Ky'for'ua (pronounced Own-vrat-yes Kai-for-ya)
Species: Kathractian
Age: several millenia
Appearance. Au'Nvratyis usually wears a trench coat, wide-brimmed hat, heavy gloves, and large boots. This excessive amount of clothing exists to hide his true appearance from other races. When not in his concealing outfit, the reason for wearing it becomes clear. Starting from the bottom up, his feet are hooved, and his goat-like legs are thin but extremely muscular. His skin has no hair whatsoever, and is bone colored. From the abdomen up, his physique reflects that of his legs. Thin but exceptionaly muscular. He sports four arms, which end in four thingered hands that are unnaturally dextrous. His head is bony, and is human-like, save for the thin eyes that are solid voids of black, the mouth full of sharp teeth, the whip like tounge, and the three bony crests that reach all the way from his forehead to the back of his head.
Personality: Au'nvratyis is enigmatic and nomadic by race, always finding new places to live and new lives to take over. He's been to most of the planets in the universe, and has an almost sage-like countenance and outward appearance. He speaks in his exotic voice only when nescessary, and is well versed in almost every major language in the universe, albeit with a lot more clicks and rolled r's than nescessary. In terms of morality, Au'Nvratyis tends towards being a benign influence on others, but has no qualms with seriously injuring someone or even taking a life if it means the safety of his species or himself, which are basically the same thing. He rarely makes true friends, and finds it hard to attach himself emotionally to things.
History: Au'Nvratyis Ky'for'ua was born into the Ky family, the royal family of Kath, his home planet. His name, which his Kathractian for "Hunter of the moon (Au'Nvratyis), Ruler of all (Ky'for'ua), features the prefix Ky in his last name, which not only means "ruler", but is also the last name prefix all Kathractian kings have, to which the commoners refer to as "The Ky". Au'Nvratyis was raised as a warrior, mastering the Kathractian martial art reserved for royalty known as "Ior'Ka Ky'Zar", or "Fallen Prince" , and mastering Kathractian bladed weapons.
When he finally came to maturity (about 500 years old), he was crowned Ky of Kath, and within 500 years he had united most of the planet by way of warfare and economic power, putting the Kathractians in a new golden age of prosperity and harmony. That is of course, until the Kua'Hod ("Metal Demons") arrived, an alien race comprised of hatred and cold metal, and exterminated the Kathractians in only ten years. Au'Nvratyis was able to escape along with some priceless weaponry and artifacts by using a waist worn device called the "Ky'd Dr'ik", or "Ruler's Ark.", which was in reality a belt worn spacial relocator that would relocate the wearer to any point in space and time, just not at the same time. He used this to travel to the farthest possible habitable planet, all the way on the other side of the galaxy.
Le'Raana
Unfortunately, his Ky'd Dr'ik became damaged when he arrived, and he was stranded on Le'Raana. He acquired his signature disguise, and has since been part of it's history. He has lived on it for countless ages, and can recall the times when men and women hacked each other apart with swords and axes instead of using lasers.
Tricks, Trinkets, Gadgets, and Weapons
Ior'Ka Ky'zar: a martial art taught exclusively to Kathractian Kys. It uses the four arms of the Kathractians to full effect, and has an emphasis on complex grapples, submission holds, and flurries of rib-shattering strikes.
The "Ruler's Ark": a belt-worn device that can transport the user to any location in space and time, just not at the same time. When it goes off, it leaves a circular sigil on the ground that contain the coordinates or time the user transported to in Kathractian, supposedly
so the commoners would know where their leader went.
Monomolecular Blades: Blades so sharp the edge is only a single molecule wide. Shaped on Kath and forged in the heat of a star, these blades made of Kathite are inconcievably sharp and durable, to the point of nigh-indestructibility.
The Amulet of Kings: An amulet passed down from Ky to Ky, this amulet is as old as the Kathractians, and grants the wearer immunity to the affects of aging while worn, ensuring that Kys are only killed in honorable battle. It consists of a gem that resembles the night sky set in an elegant gold cage.
The Armor of Kings: Also passed down from Ky to Ky, this armor is light and does not encumber the wearer, while providing unprecedented protection to vitals on the same level as the best light combat armor. It is comprised of Kathite plates, and made with the same methods as the Monomolecular Blades. It resembles a knight's breastplate, except made of a metal that shines brighter than any other.
Splinter Pistols: fully automatic and totally alien by design, Splinter Pistols are designed to shoot hardened shards of light at the target. The weapons boast a blistering rate of fire, but accuracy is on the low side. The shards can pierce any material, but will only go a few inches deep, meaning while they may be useless against heavier targets, lightly armored targets are absolutely shredded. The splinter pistols come in a set of four, and Au'Nvratyis wears each one under each arm.
