Name: Zergheist Yahfron O Nut – The first underlined word is his first name and also the name of the scientist who created him. The second underlined word is the name of the project he was born from. The third underlined letter are the type of cells that were infused with his Ixo cells. The last underlined word is the name of his mother whose egg was donated for the project. Nut is pronounced like the word “Newt.”
Nickname: Zebra*, Zyon, Zy, The Alien, Space Elf, or Zee.
Alias: Zyon (sounds like Zion)
Age: Appears to be in his mid-twenties.
World of Origin: OC; Ixos - Red Spiral Galaxy
Race: Ixan
BiodataIxans are an alien race from what astronomers call the Red Spiral Galaxy or RSG. Their home planet is named Ixos, one of three other planets that are invaders to their galaxy. The invaders are living planets that Ixans call, “Ujas” or “The Swarm.” Ixans are all bioengineered beings created to defend their planet from all invaders that would cause it harm. Ixans are very similar to Humans in appearance except that their hair colors can vary to colors impossible for most humans such as blue, pink, purples, etc. Their skin varies from tan to dark in complexion to the giant sun at the center of the RSG named “No.” With No being so large, the Ixans have a higher heat toleration than normal Humans (that’s about as hot as temperatures recorded in Death Valley, CA) as well as cold for every night when the sun sets, the planet plummets to temperatures starting at 32 to minus 16 in Fahrenheit. No also makes the gravity of Ixos greater five times than that of Earth, making the Ixans muscle and skeletal properties denser than a normal human’s.
Ixans are constantly developing new technology to improve their people and better adapt them to fight The Swarm threat. DNA is recoded and artificial cells created that reprogram the development of Ixan embryo making them stronger, faster, sturdier, and more intelligent than those created from past projects. Zyon was one of these beings created in a lab from Dr. Zhergeist Myex Z Fa and his mother Nut Xila M Eun.
Physical and Mental AbilitiesOn Ixos, the Ixans created directly from the lab are slightly superhuman in comparison to those who have reproduced naturally over the years. Ixans live average lives, mostly farming and tending to the flora and fauna of their planet to better prolong its existence in order to promote theirs. The technology uses natural energy that promotes life on the planet, and the destructive forms of energy are used in the defense of the planet. While all Ixans are soldiers capable of taking up arms at any moment to defend their planet from invaders, the Ixans born directly from projects already have their lives mapped out for them. They are the soldiers.
Ixan Strength/Speed/Reflexes/Endurance/Toughness/Senses The true strength of an Ixan depends on gravity. If an Ixan were to go to earth for example, with Earth’s gravity being 9.8 m/s2. Ixos is five times that amount making it 49 m/s2. An Ixan would be able to perform stunts that Earthlings would deem superhuman. For RP purposes and to shy away from math and science, I’m just going to keep it simple and say that at most if Zyon were to be on Earth, then he could lift 25 tons. As long as he isn’t restricted by a gravity greater than 49 m/s2, then he will demonstrate abnormal strength.
Speed, on Earth, would be 45 mph, and his reflexes would allow him to dodge and block objects travelling at the speed of most small arm weapons.
Due to his bioengineering, his body produces less toxins and therefore, Ixans can wage a war for days on end with little rest. Three days at most for each Ixan before they must rest.
Ixans are a tough species. Unlike Humans, they cannot be killed by a sharp stick. A sharp stick would snap in collision with their sturdy muscles and skin before it would ever pierce it. They can tolerate abuse from lost limbs, multiple stabbings, and severe burns before they would ever call it quits. They are resistant to most toxins, due to their body’s ability to rapidly filter harmful substances. They are designed to take punishment for The Swarm does only that. It does not feel; it does not regret; and it does not care for anything other than itself.
Ixan’s carry above-average hearing, able to hear a whisper if the whisper were made in the same room. As for if there were obstacles in the way such as a wall, then Ixans can hear at most a conversation made at a normal spoken volume, any louder than most definitely. They can see clearly up to 300 m, and so scoped weapons aren’t always necessary, and like animals, can smell certain emotions exuded by other lifeforms such as fear, anxiety, and also when a possible mate is in heat. Through touch, Ixans can perceive the direction and the distance a being is walked by feeling the vibrations of their steps through the floor. They can also perceive how many beings are in the next room based on hearing and feeling how many different footstep patterns are made. No assumption is ever perfect, but there is a slight accuracy. Taste; Ixans love good food especially organic food. They taste deeper than most and so are true gourmet when it comes to their meals. They can identify toxins from the slightest taste.
The Ixan Brain An Ixan’s brain functions quickly, which allows for Ixans to make quick subconscious decisions without being entirely consciously aware. This is what gives them their immediate reaction time to approaching assaults and other projectiles. It also allows them to devise swift strategies to exploit an opponent’s weakness. Zyon was raised for combat and so the front line is where he is most effective. When he reads books, he appears to be skimming, but his brain is actually processing the language. He is capable of learning a multitude of languages through association alone. Lastly, the Ixan brain has the unique ability to project energy that is invisible to the average eye. It is a psyenergy that allows Ixans to use telekinesis to move objects, halt objects, and vibrate objects to pieces. This psyenergy also allows them to bond with their Aegis System.
Zyon AppearanceZyon is a brown-skinned, white-haired, 6’3” and 340 lbs male. He doesn’t appear as heavy as his weight implies due to the natural increased density of his muscles, bones, and skin. Unfortunately, if anyone wanted to carry him out of a firefight, they would find him to be one heavy mofo. His exotic features are seen in his eyes and ears. His eyes are a bright pink with golden flecks in them, those flecks being the O cells or what are otherwise called, ‘Circle Cells,’ which are trademark to those Ixans born from the Yahfron Project.
His brown skin is also covered in black stripes, which can only be explained as a possible side-effect of the O cells conflicting with the pigmentation of the Ixan Cells. He is mostly seen wearing his fighter pilot jumpsuit that acts as a uniform while within the Aegis unit, as well as a battle uniform for infantry-style combat. Details about this uniform are explained in another section.
Besides his interesting eyes, another exotic trait are the shell of his ears that are slightly pointed like how Humans would describe the ears of an elf. They round out like a leaf and point at the tips, and are no longer than two and a half inches. His teeth slightly sharp made for tearing and grinding down all forms of food no matter how hard or tough. Back to his hair, it is pretty long, but doesn’t touch his shoulders. Feathery layers of his hair sometimes obscures his eyes and hide the unusual tips of his ears. It is smooth and silky to the touch and he can style it by pushing it back with a hairband or even braid the longer ends.
PersonalitySocial Bubble Breaker | Curious | Gourmet | Cocky | Undying Will
Zebra, as he tends to be called due to his striped skin, can be intimidating at first. He is an alien after all from a universe that is outside most who share the same galaxy. He is a big dude, and at first he didn’t understand the team, but it only took him a few hours to learn the overall language. He still doesn’t know all words, but he can learn as he goes because he speaks Ixan, which actually sounds pretty interesting. It sounds very similar to Cantonese but with rolled R sounds and longer tones at time. Therefore when Zebra speaks some of his sounds are longer than others. Example:
“What arrre yoouu talking about?”
His accent is very distinct due to those reasons.
There is much the alien may not understand about other beings from other universes and thus will get curious. Females be warned, he may laugh at those with small busts, finding it to be highly unusual for Ixan women are designed to produce multiple eggs and raise many young. You can only imagine their cup size.
Zebra was raised for battle and he primarily fights using his Aegis unit. If tasked to go on the ground as a foot soldier, then those lucky enough to witness will see that his fighting techniques are quite the mesmerizing sight to behold. He is engineered to seek out a weakness and exploit it, and that is what his brain does. He can guard his defenses exceptionally well and for a long period, which is usually long enough for him to open a hole in his opponent’s defense.
The mecha pilot is very open about his opinions and is unafraid to call another teammate’s strategy stupid or even openly talk about a person for well…his culture is different. Ixans have tough skin—not just physically but mentally—and so some things said can be deemed without filter. He may just have to learn the hard way. There are no social bubbles in Ixos so if an Ixan is talking to another, they can stand creepily close to another person almost to the point where they can feel one’s breath on one’s face.
Zebra carries an undying spirit or will, which basically means he will fight until he can’t no more. Until he’s either unconscious or dead. He will protect those he cares about and sacrifice himself to protect others. It may not just be what he’s designed to do, but his actual personality.
When out of combat, Zebra will work out, train, and enjoy his favorite time of the day: meal time. No one will ever see Zebra late to breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and they’d be wise to get there before he or Kirby get there for there may not be any leftovers. He takes meal time seriously for it not only allows him to feed his cells, but because it sends so many positives to his brain. Therefore, if Zebra is hungry or if he ever misses a meal, he can be extremely cranky and negative toward the team.
When he sleeps, he doesn’t sleep in a bed. He sleeps hooked up to his Aegis system for the system harmonizes with his own biological one and allows him to keep synchronization with his unit. He doesn’t like to be disturbed from his naps or when he’s sleeping, but if a friend needs to talk to him about anything that might be bothering him or her, he will listen. Just don’t mind his cranky mutterings.
Aegis JumpsuitPilot Variant: The jumpsuit is semipermeable skin that allows for the skin of the pilot to breathe. It is black in appearance and smooth in texture, coating the body like a thick second skin. The skin moves almost symbiotically. It is released from the armbands and boots of the pilot, spreading over the pilot’s body to merge together. Built into the pilot’s sides are ports that allow for the pilot’s mind and body to be plugged into the conscious of the Aegis Unit. The helmet opens and closes about the head of the pilot, willed to do so by the pilot’s mind.
Combat Variant: On the ground, the suit is similar to the pilot variant except that it carries a sturdy and flexible exoskeleton that protects the back, torso, groin, knees, shoulders, and elbows of the wearer in a gray matter. The helmet is still worn and grants Zebra a 360 degree view of the area around him, increased listening, and communication with his team. However, when tracking enemies through touch or smell, he must remove his helmet and his gauntlets in order to do so.
Equipment- Storage Belt: A belt with various small compartments for storing things.
- Ammo Pack: A pack at his hip that carries power cells to recharge his Disaster weapons.
- EVAC Kit: A kit that comes with basic medical equipment. He still has slimes from his universe that he can use to cover burns and other gaping wounds. They’re unflattering but hey, he’s saving your life! The EVAC Kit can be filled with normal remedies and medical equipment. It also contains reflectors, markers, ropes and cords and signal equipment for evacuation.
- Hacking Kit: On his other hip is a pack that carries a few wires that Zebra can plug into his helmet. As he is able to do so with his Aegis Unit, Zebra can infiltrate an enemy network and hack its programs to open inaccessible areas or disable security systems. He can also reprogram most enemy machines if they are controlled by that network.
- Rations: He carries several vacuum-packed snacks to keep his spirits up and his appetite at bay. He doesn’t mind sharing with the team.
Weapons- Disaster Rifle x1

Type: Hecatonchire
Form: Colossus
Processor: Remote and Sync – The mecha is controlled by syncing with the pilot’s conscious. The pilot is plugged into its system and the pilot basically becomes the mecha. This allows the mecha to perform stunts similar to what the pilot can do naturally. The mecha can also be controlled by remote means, but it won’t be able to perform tasks such as launching missiles and other attacks or hacking into systems without the pilot. In remote mode, the mecha is only capable of melee combat, which it will mimic the moves that the pilot makes outside the cockpit.
Description: The Hecatonchire is a cyclops unit with six arms and two legs. The mecha stands 40 m tall, and isn’t something you’d want to go head to head with. Unless, of course, you have a mecha of your own or a kaiju.
Security System: Unfortunately, the Hecatonchire can only be piloted by the pilot with the appropriate suit. It will not acknowledge intruders. Hecatonchire has shields to keep it from being peppered by small arms fire from enemy fighters. The shield can be taken down by high-powered enemy attacks.
Weapon System: In the Colossus form, the mecha can perform close-quarters combat through hand-to-hand techniques or employ up to six plasma sabers for each of its hands. The mecha has numerous thrusters that allows it to swiftly maneuver the battlefield or immediately brake. It can deploy up to twelve missiles at a target and contains a hyper cannon at its core for obliterating installations in a mighty concussive beam. Similar to Zebra, the mecha carries one rifle, two pistols, and grenades that can level a block.
Emergency System: The Aegis Unit can sense the pilot’s distress. While the pilot is engineered to fight longer than an average pilot could, if the system deems that the pilot may not survive, then it will safely eject the pilot from the cockpit in a casket-like capsule that literally embeds itself into the ground for protection. Within the capsule, the pilot will undergo a stabilizing program that prolong the pilot’s life, but it can’t do so forever. Even Ixans need to eat, drink, and breathe.
Unique Traits: Multi-tasker; rotating limbs and torso.
Form: Fighter (Aerial)
Description: The mecha can transform into a ship for swifter travel. The fighter ship has six wings just as it would have six arms in its bipedal form. The ship resembles an F-18 Hornet in shape.
Security System: Similar to the Colossus security system, however, the Hornet can carry a second passenger as long as Zebra informs the system that there will be a “guest.” Otherwise, unwelcome guests can face ejection.
Weapon System: Similar to the Colossus system except that it cannot use the hyper cannon function. It can speed by and drop bombs (what would be the grenades) onto bases and ships. It can also pepper other ships with rapid-fire plasma rounds.
Emergency System: Similar to the Colossus system.
Unique Traits: Perch; in fighter form, the ship can plant itself like a bug onto other ships and go into a cloak mode. This cloak mode can be used to secretly board an enemy ship or hack into its network. Most ships have shields, but once those shields go down, then the opportunity is there for the taking. The fighter ship will lower its legs that allow it to walk and stick to most surfaces like a bird. It allows the ship to also spring into the air for a quicker launch.
